INDEX (SARAH) MARGARET FULLER THE MARCHESA D’OSSOLI 1808 The French army occupied Rome, and invaded Spain seizing Barcelona and Madrid. Joseph Bonaparte, who had been King of Naples, became King of Spain, and General Joachim Murat, began to rule in Naples in his stead (he would hold that job until 1815). There were widespread uprisings in Spain, and British troops landed in Portugal. Henry Crabb Robinson, sent by the Times of London to report on the Peninsular War, became the 1st war correspondent (Margaret Fuller, 1st female war correspondent, wasn’t yet born). #1 Male #1 Female HDT WHAT? INDEX (SARAH) MARGARET FULLER THE MARCHESA D’OSSOLI 1810 May 23, Wednesday: Sarah Fuller was born in Cambridgeport, Massachusetts.1 King Solomon II was deposed as the Kingdom of Imeret’i (in Georgia) was annexed by Russia. Friend Stephen Wanton Gould wrote in his journal: 4th day 23 of 5 Mo// The mind again refreshed with the Springs of Life. This eveng in looking forward to Y Meeting while setting at home with my dear H, my feelings were quite raised to a lively sensibility that I seldom have. I rememberd some favord seasons, at that time & as from present apperiences We shall be more at liberty to enjoy the company of our friends than the last. There seem’d something encourageing in the prospect, but how will be cannot tell, sickness or other disappointments may assail us & all our promised enjoyment be frustrated, but be that as it may I hope we shall be favord with the Life of Religion ————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————— RELIGIOUS SOCIETY OF FRIENDS 1.

As 29 our climate changes, it is likely that Drought events will become more intense anD frequent. 30 Effective Drought monitoring is therefore critical, both to the research community in 31 Developing an unDerstanDing of Drought, anD to those responsible for Drought management 32 anD mitigation. Over the past 50 years remote sensing has shifteD the fielD away from 33 reliance on traditional site-baseD measurements anD enableD observations anD estimates of 34 key drought-relateD variables over larger spatial anD temporal scales than was previously 35 possible. This has proven especially important in Data poor regions with limiteD in-situ 36 monitoring stations. Available remotely senseD Data proDucts now represent almost all 37 aspects of Drought propagation anD have contributeD to our unDerstanDing of the 38 phenomena. In this review we chart the rise of remote sensing for Drought monitoring, 39 examining key milestones anD technologies for assessing meteorological, agricultural anD 40 hyDrological Drought events. We reflect on challenges the research community has faceD to 41 Date, such as limitations associateD with Data recorD length anD spatial, temporal anD 42 spectral resolution.
