‘When I open it, I have to drink it all’: push and pull factors shaping domestic alcohol consumption during the COVID-19 pandemic UK Spring 2020 lockdown by Conroy, Dom, Nicholls, Emily

“…Discussion and conclusions: With the increasing normalisation of domestic drinking during a global pandemic, this paper illuminates several factors that may encourage or curtail domestic alcohol consumption and invites us to consider the importance of assemblages, space and context. Such findings have wider applicability; for example consideration of specific (and perhaps unique) push and pull factors of home spaces could inform future alcohol policy, health promotion messages and how guidance around ‘moderation’ or risky drinking is communicated.…”

Cloud detection and attenuation modelling in tropical region by Yuan, Feng

“…It is noted that with the introduction of the use of PWV data from GPS (Global Positioning System), higher temporal resolution of cloud attenuation can be achieved comparing to the existing ITU-R cloud attenuation model. In this thesis, we have proposed a model to detect cloud vertical structure, studied and detect the melting layer for rain cloud, done statistical analysis of cloud attenuation on Ka-band satellite link and also proposed a method for cloud attenuation calculation in tropical region. …”
