  • Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr
    Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr. Through the headlines of the Tulsa Tribune the Jones family has been a part of local and national history. Chapter 01 – 1:15 Introduction Announcer: The grandfather of Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr., Richard Lloyd Jones, bought the Tulsa Democrat from Sand Springs founder Charles Page, and turned it into the Tribune. The Tulsa Tribune was an afternoon newspaper and consistently republican; it never endorsed a democrat for U.S. president and did not endorse a democrat for governor until 1958. Jenkin Lloyd Jones Sr. was editor of the Tribune from 1941 to 1988, and publisher until 1991. Jenkin Jones brother Richard Lloyd Jones was the Tribune’s president. Jones Airport in Tulsa is named for Richard Lloyd Jones Jr. Other Jones family members served in various capacities on the paper, including Jenkin’s son, Jenkin Lloyd Jones Jr., who was the last publisher and editor of the paper which closed September 30, 1992. Like other large city evening newspapers, its readership had declined, causing financial losses. Jenk Jones spent thirty-two years at the Tulsa Tribune in jobs ranging from reporter to editor and publisher. He is a member of the Oklahoma Journalism Hall of Fame and the Universtiy of Tulsa Hall of Fame. And now Jenk Jones tells the story of his family and the Tulsa Tribune on Voices of Oklahoma, preserving our state’s history, one voice at a time. Chapter 02 – 12:05 Jones Family John Erling: My name is John Erling and today’s date is February 25, 2011. Jenk, state your full name, please, your date of birth, and your present age.

  • Preparation of Papers for AIAA Journals
    Analysis of Satellite Radio Occultation Architecture and its Stakeholders I. Josue Tapia-Tamayo1 and Paul T. Grogan2 Stevens Institute of Technology, Hoboken, NJ 07030, USA Global Navigation Satellite System Radio Occultation (GNSS-RO) is a technique that relies on the change of a signal transmitted from a Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) as it passes through the planet’s atmosphere. This technique is not only suitable to study weather forecasting or climate change, but also offers a low-cost application. This report aims to characterize and parametrize the system architecture of commercial companies pursuing the Commercial Weather Data Pilot (CWDP) contract by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA). The approach of the paper will start by explaining the Radio Occultation technique and its potential application to Numerical Weather Prediction (NWP). The paper then identifies the main stakeholders of radio occultation and NWP, and their needs. Some key functional requirements are pinpointed, and the challenges that some of these architectures must overcome is discussed. Introduction The increase of severe weather in the last decade has led to the need for improvement of U.S. weather forecasting. Severe weather such as hurricanes and flooding causes great economic damage to cities. According to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), the cost of economic damage caused by hurricanes was $161 billion for Katrina in 2005, $71 billion for Sandy in 2012, $125 billion for Harvey in 2017, $90 billion for Maria in 2017, and $50 billion for Irma in 2017. The overall cost of hurricanes in the U.S. reached $515.4 billion in insured property losses from 1986 to 2015.
