Diffraction Patterns of light from spheres and clusters of particles for modelling hydrometeors

Modeling the interaction of hydrometeors (such as raindrops, snowflakes, and ice particles) with electromagnetic fields is a complex task with several challenges: scattering and numerical complexity, orientation effects, frequency dependence. In this work, we aim to address and explore some of these issues, treating the diffraction pattern of light through a sphere, thinking that it is a starting point for modeling hydrometeors. We will begin by investigating the phenomenon of diffractio...

Thermal unrest at La Fossa (Vulcano Island, Italy): the 2021–2023 VIIRS 375 m MIROVA-processed dataset

Remotely sensed thermal data have been globally recognised as an effective and reliable tool to detect and quantify signs of volcanic unrest (Furtney et al. 2018; Reath et al. 2019; Coppola et al. 2020). Together with ground-truth data, satellite-retrieved information (i.e. thermal flux) enables scientists and researchers to monitor the evolution of volcanic activity (Ramsey and Harris 2013; Laiolo et al. 2019; Coppola et al. 2020). The aim of these investigations has long focused on volcanoe...

From Radar Sensor to Floating Car Data: Evaluating Speed Distribution Heterogeneity on Rural Road Segments Using Non-Parametric Similarity Measures

Rural roads, often characterized by winding paths and nearby settlements, feature frequent curvature changes, junctions, and closely spaced private accesses that lead to significant speed variations. These variations are typically represented by average speed or v85 profiles. This paper examines complete speed distributions along rural two-lane roads using Floating Car Data (FCD). The Wasserstein distance, a non-parametric similarity measure, is employed to compare speed distributions recorde...
