The recent rapid decline of populations of many of these fish species has been followed by court rulings restricting water exports from the Delta, focusing public and political attention on one of California’s most important and iconic water controversies.

  • "Big Data" Analysis of Rocket Failure
    A “Big Data” Analysis of Rocket Failure Anthony Ozerov 2019 A “Big Data” Analysis of Rocket Failure Introduction The field of Big Data, which I have professional and hobbyist experience in, is emerging as one which has the possibility to do everything from making advertising more effective to improving crop yields. However, one field which I have not seen it applied to is rocketry, and I wondered how Big Data could be used to predict rocket failures. The aim of this investigation is to predict one output value—the probability of failure of a rocket—based on as much data as is practically possible to obtain in a reasonably automated manner. Data in the investigation will include: • Mean climate data for the day (e.g. surface temperature) • The launch vehicle used (e.g. a Saturn V) • The launch site (e.g. Cape Canaveral) By applying a subset of statistics called “Statistical Learning” to said data, I think it will be possible to predict the probability of failure of any launch. This will provide interesting insights. For example, if there is little correlation between the climate data and the probability of failure, I could conclude that launch providers are scheduling launches at the correct times, when the weather provides no risk to the launch vehicle. The scope of this investigation is every rocket launch before 2018, as I was unable to find complete climate data for 2018 and after. Data Sources The only complete and sourced rocket launch dataset I found was at planet4589.org1. This dataset includes the date of a launch, the launch vehicle, the launch site, and if the launch was a failure or a success, and will clearly provide some of the desired predictors and the output value.

  • NCAR/TN-121+STR the Delta-Eddington Approximation for a Vertically Inhomogeneous Atmosphere
    3zpzti NCAR/TN-121 +STR NCAR TECHNICAL NOTE 4 July 1977 The Delta-Eddington Approximation for a Vertically Inhomogeneous Atmosphere W. J. Wiscombe ATMOSPHERIC ANALYSI ANAND PREDICTION DIVISION -~P---P·-·~---~~I----II~-~-YU~ ~eger -- 1~-~ II~- -·IC-- ~ e - -~ - I I I I -- C a NATIONAL CENTER FOR ATMOSPHERIC RESEARCH BOULDER, COLORADO iii ABSTRACT The delta-Eddington approximation of Joseph, Wiscombe, and Weinman (1976) is extended to an atmosphere divided up by internal levels into homogeneous layers. Flux continuity is enforced at each level, leading, as the mathematical essence of the problem, to a penta-diagonal system of linear equations for certain unknown con- stants. Fluxes (up, direct down, diffuse down, and net) are then pre- dicted at each level. Unphysical results of the model are examined in detail. Potential numerical instabilities in the solution are noted and corrected, and an extremely fast, well-documented computer code resulting from this analysis is described and listed. Actual computed fluxes are given for several test problems. v PREFACE It has always been painfully obvious, in my multi-spectral- interval, multi-layer, and multi-angle computer models of solar and IR radiative transfer, that the angular part of the calculation was the pacing item. Since my interest has primarily been in fluxes, it always seemed particularly unfortunate to spend the lion's share of computing time on obtaining angular information, which was then used only to compute fluxes. It would obviously have been preferable to calculate fluxes directly, but none of the existing approximations for so doing (variants of two-stream and Eddington) seemed sufficiently flexible - for in marching through the solar and IR spectrums, and vertically upward through an atmosphere, one encounters huge varia- tions in optical depth and single-scattering albedo, and the existing approximations were only valid for restricted ranges of these para- meters.

  • A Method of Measuring High Delta M Doubles
    Vol. 3 No. 4 Fall 2007 Journal of Double Star Observations Page 159 A Method of Measuring High Delta m Doubles James A. Daley Ludwig Schupmann Observarory New Ipswich,NH [email protected] Abstract: This paper describes a method of precisely measuring theta and rho for pairs in which the difference in stellar magnitude (delta m) is in the range of 8 to 12 . The instrumentation takes the form of a stellar coronagraph where, in this design, a highly attenuating foil strip is substituted for the normal opaque occultor, thus giving a sharp, well exposed and well defined position for the bright primary, along with faint and sometimes numerous components lying clear of the foil. Many WDS listed high dm components are unconfirmed providing an additional challenge in their recovery. Although many components are optical, good measures of these objects can be of some value in various proper motion studies. The instruments optical/mechanical design is described in sufficient detail such that other observers may assemble a similar device from their optics collection. CCD images of a few program stars are also shown. Introduction referring to the highly attenuating foil strip.

The text referring to Table 11, on pages 38 and 39, should appear as below: "If a new orbiter was flown four times each year and the margi- nal cost of a shuttle flight was $65 million, then the real dis- counted cost of building and operating the additional orbiter at full capacity is estimated to be $4.3 billion from 1987 through 2000. Expendable launch vehicles, each of which is capable of carrying only 40 percent of a shuttle flight and is launched at a cost of $60 million, can provide comparable capacity at a cost of $5.0 billion over the same period."

Lavender January 1, 1974 305 867-2468 Release #KSC-1-74 OVER 1,500,000 VISITED KSC IN 1973 KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, Fla.--More than 1,500,000 people visited the Space Center in 1973, the eighth year in which the public was admitted on a daily basis to NASA's major launch base. Trans World Airlines operates the Visitors Information Center and employs Florida Parlor Coach Co., Inc., a Greyhound subsidiary, to provide buses and escorts fc)r the daily 50-mile tours. TWA reported 1,264,321 patrons boarded the tour buses in 1973 which was second only to the peak year of 1972 in total attendance. About 20 percent of the visitors do not take the tour. The sustained public interest in the program was demonstrated by heavy visitation through the first 11 months of the year. By November 30, total attendance was only 5 percent under 1972. Impact of the gasoline problem on tourism, which was noted elsewhere in Florida, became apparent in December which is normally the peak month. Between December 15 and 31, 1973, boardings of the tour buses declined almost 40 percent compared to the 1972 levels. This drop had been anticipated by TWA which operated a fleet of 40 buses to take care of the crowds. In the same period of 1972, 78 buses were required. As a result of the sharp reduction for the holidays, the 1973 bus patronage dropped about 9 percent under the 1972 level.
