  • Was the Eruption of Ferdinandea, Near Sicily, One of the Largest Volcanic Climate Forcing Events of the Nineteenth Century?
    https://doi.org/10.5194/cp-2021-78 Preprint. Discussion started: 5 August 2021 c Author(s) 2021. CC BY 4.0 License. The blue suns of 1831: was the eruption of Ferdinandea, near Sicily, one of the largest volcanic climate forcing events of the nineteenth century? 5 Christopher Garrison1, Christopher Kilburn1, David Smart 1, Stephen Edwards 1. 1 UCL Hazard Centre, Department of Earth Sciences, University College London, Gower Street, London, WC1E 6BT, UK. Correspondence to: Christopher Garrison ([email protected]) Abstract. One of the largest climate forcing eruptions of the nineteenth century was, until recently, 10 believed to have taken place at Babuyan Claro volcano, in the Philippines, in 1831. However, a recent investigation found no reliable evidence of such an eruption, suggesting that the 1831 eruption must have taken place elsewhere. A newly compiled dataset of reported observations of a blue, purple and green sun in August 1831 is here used to reconstruct the transport of a stratospheric aerosol plume from that eruption. The source of the aerosol plume is identified as the eruption of Ferdinandea, which took place 15 about 50 km off the south-west coast of Sicily (lat. 37.1o N., long. 12.7o E.), in July and August 1831. The modest magnitude of this eruption, assigned a Volcanic Explosivity Index (VEI) of 3, has commonly caused it to be discounted or overlooked when identifying the likely source of the stratospheric sulphate aerosol in 1831. It is proposed, however, that convective instability in the troposphere contributed to aerosol reaching the stratosphere and that the aerosol load was enhanced by addition of a sedimentary 20 sulphur component to the volcanic plume.

    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE DEPARTMENT OF FINANCE IDENTIFYING OPTIMAL TENNIS BETTING PORTFOLIOS BASED ON VARYING RISK TOLERANCES OF BETTORS NIMAY GODBOLE SPRING 2020 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Finance with honors in Finance Reviewed and approved* by the following: Dr. Robert Novack Associate Professor of Business Logistics Thesis Supervisor Dr. Brian Davis Clinical Assistant Professor of Finance Honors Adviser * Electronic approvals are on file. i ABSTRACT This thesis assesses the risk versus return relationship in tennis betting among the different tournaments that exist within the Association of Tennis Professionals (ATP) Tour, the main men’s tennis governing body. To do so, betting data is gathered from a website well-known for this data collection, http://www.tennis-data.co.uk/. The purpose of this thesis is to identify optimal betting portfolios for bettors with varying levels of risk aversion. Expected returns and standard deviations of Grand Slam, Masters 1000, ATP 500, and ATP 250 tournaments were analyzed to create an optimal risky portfolio using Markowtiz’s Portfolio Theory. Once that was created, optimal betting portfolios were created by betting a portion of the money in the tennis betting market and investing the rest in Vanguard’s Prime Money Market Fund, VMMXX. The key finding is significant; at a risk aversion level of A = 4, the portfolio yields a return of 11.02 percent and a standard deviation of 15.02 percent, which is a higher return and lower standard deviation than the historical average of the S&P 500.
