In this sobering exploration of the interconnected crises of climate change and social inequality, William M. Epstein examines how entrenched cultural values and systemic inequities thwart meaningful climate action, driving humanity closer to catastrophic consequences. Epstein outlines three potential climate futures—ranging from manageable to devastating—and scrutinizes society's inability to confront these realities with meaningful action. He argues that solutions exist, but they demand sacrifices and transformations that clash with deeply rooted societal norms. Epstein highlights the global indifference to equality and environmental stewardship and exposes the tragic inertia that imperils democracy, the environment, and humanity itself. By examining the broader implications of inequality—ranging from resource distribution to policy inertia—he reveals how societal values shape environmental outcomes and the growing divide between those who bear the brunt of climate change and those who remain insulated. Offering a sharp critique of romanticized individualism and its role in undermining collective action, this provocative book challenges readers to rethink society's capacity and willingness to confront existential and environmental threats. A profound and timely work, Climate Change, Social Inequality, and Doom confronts the moral and political failures that define the climate crisis and reveals the stark choice between an equitable, sustainable future and irreversible decline.","PeriodicalId":14788,"journal":{"name":"Johns Hopkins Apl Technical Digest","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147902261","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Powerful College Admission Essays is a practical guide designed to help students and families navigate this challenging task. Written by seasoned admission professionals and counselors with decades of experience, this book helps students write distinct essays that authentically reflect who they are. This essential guide covers the entire process—from brainstorming and storytelling to structure, tone, and editing—while addressing common hurdles like writer's block, clichés, and the complexities of integrating AI tools responsibly. Recognizing the pivotal role of families and educators, the authors, Brennan Barnard and Shereem Herndon-Brown, include insights on how parents and counselors can support students without taking over the process. It's an invaluable resource not only for high school students and their families but also for teachers and counselors leading essay-writing workshops or working with underserved and first-generation college applicants.Unlike other books that promise shortcuts or \"secrets\" to a perfect essay, this guide emphasizes introspective and thoughtful self-expression. It prepares students to adapt their writing to the changing admissions landscape, including recent shifts following the Supreme Court's decision on affirmative action. Powerful College Admission Essays offers the tools and inspiration to transform the college essay from a source of stress into an opportunity for growth and storytelling.","PeriodicalId":14788,"journal":{"name":"Johns Hopkins Apl Technical Digest","volume":"1 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"147920700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

ARGOSY (ARchitecture for Going to the Outer solar SYstem) addresses anew the problem of human exploration to the outer planets. The ARGOSY architecture approach is scalable in size and power so that increasingly distant destinations—the systems of Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune—can be reached with the same crew size and time requirements. To enable such missions, achievable technologies with appropriate margins must be used to construct a viable technical approach at the systems level.

Thus far, I have implemented this method on seventeen SAR wind images from off the east coast of the United States using bulk-derived statistics from coincident buoy data as ground truth. Agreement is encouraging. The rate of acquisition of SAR wind imagery available to me has increased. Imagery is available over the Gulf of Alaska as well as off the east coast of the United States, in conjunction with the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA)-sponsored Storm Watch / Alaska SAR Demonstration (http://fermi.jhuapl.edu/sar/stormwatch/index.html). Therefore, the potential for robust testing of the method will continue. Questions I wish to address include the influence of the surface wave state, the synoptic and mesoscale meteorological environment, pixel size, and the averaging window size of the SAR wind imagery on the performance of the method.","PeriodicalId":14788,"journal":{"name":"Johns Hopkins Apl Technical Digest","volume":"7 1","pages":"94-99"},"PeriodicalIF":0.2,"publicationDate":"2000-09-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"67989374","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Strong variations in backscatter from the surface in and around convective cells associated with rain cells and rain bands were observed, coupled with increased backscatter in regions of high wind outflow. Long linear features of 3 to 6 km were also noted in three of the four hurricanes, probably due to secondary circulations in the atmospheric boundary layer (roll vortices). They occurred between convective rain bands, where the descending motion could produce a well-defined boundary layer. Although the origins and mechanisms producing the features are still not clear, the high-resolution wide swath coverage modes of synthetic aperture radar provide new insights and present important questions for further research.
