Experimental Investigation of Ground Radiation on Dielectric and Brightness Temperature of Soil Moisture and Soil Salinity by Weizhen Wang, Leilei Dong, Chunfeng Ma, Long Wei, Feinan Xu, Jiaojiao Feng

“…The brightness temperature of the soil moisture and multilevel salinity was simulated by using the Q-H (parameter of polarization mixing and parameter of characterizing height) model and Holmes parameterization scheme of soil effective temperature. The results show that both the Dobson model and the GRMDM model can well reproduce the real part and imaginary part of the dielectric constant of non-saline soil, and the GRMDM model was better. …”

Daily time series of 12 human thermal stress indices in Greece, aggregated at commune level (1998–2022)Zenodo by Georgios Charvalis, Michalis Koureas, Chloe Brimicombe, Chara Bogogiannidou, Fani Kalala, Varbara Mouchtouri, Christos Hadjichristodoulou

“…The heat indices contained in the dataset include Apparent Temperature (AT), Heat Index (HI), Humidity Index (Humidex), Normal Effective Temperature (NET), Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (simple version WBGT), Wet Bulb Globe Temperature (thermofeelWBGT), Wet Bulb Temperature (WBT), Wind Chill Temperature (WCT), Mean Radiant Temperature (MRT), and Universal Thermal Climate Index (UTCI) with two variations (UTCI indoor and UTCI outdoor).To develop the dataset, we used hourly climate variables, acquired from the ERA5 and ERA5-Land datasets, produced by the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF), which are accessible through the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) Climate Data Store (CDS) Application Program Interface (API) client. …”

Mass, Luminosity, and Stellar Age of Early-type Stars from the LAMOST Survey by Qida Li, Jianping Xiong, Jiao Li, Yanjun Guo, Zhanwen Han, Xuefei Chen, Chao Liu

“…Mass ( M ) and luminosity ( L ) are fundamental parameters of stars but can only be measured indirectly. Typically, effective temperature ( T _eff ), surface gravity ( $\mathrm{log}\ g$ ), and metallicity ([M/H]) are derived from stellar spectra, then M , L , and stellar age ( t ) can be obtained by interpolating in the grid of stellar evolutionary models. …”
