    Jason-1/Jason-2 metocean comparisons and monitoring

    No full text
    The initial tandem phase of the Jason-2 mission is important for the calibration of the entire altimetric system, not just the records of sea surface height. However, as well as allowing a bulk comparison of metocean parameters such as wave height and backscatter strength (used to infer wind speed), it affords a more detailed opportunity to understand the artefacts within each instrument. The wave height comparison shows no bias between the instruments, with the mismatch error of consecutive points independent of one another. The backscatter difference is not a simple offset, but has a trend with weak non-linear variations. The technique for backscatter monitoring using Ku-/C-band differences is validated during the tandem phase, and extended to show ~59-day oscillations throughout the Jason-1 mission. This effect, which is predominantly in the C-band, is related to changing solar exposure, due to the fraction of orbit in eclipse varying as the orbit precesses. Such anomalies were partially present in TOPEX-B data, but are not noticeable for Jason-2. It is recommended that all TOPEX, Jason-1 and Jason-2 data be transformed to a consistent scale, allowing for the bias and trend terms in the offsets between instruments, and correcting for any long-period drifts in individual calibration; this will enable a single wind speed algorithm to be applied to the combined satellite data

    Diary of Corporal Jason S. Wiltse (1843-1874) kept during his 1863-1864 service with the 23rd Michigan Infantry. He recounts his tour of duty in Ohio, Kentucky, and Tennessee as well as the battle of Campbell’s Station near Knoxville, TN. These pages describe his time in Bowling Green on Christmas Day, 1862.https://digitalcommons.wku.edu/civilwar_exhibit/1033/thumbnail.jp

    Jason vs GIJOE

    No full text
    Thesis (Master's)--University of Washington, 2019Jason vs GI JOE is partly an exercise in autobiography, an experiment in relational aesthetics, and an interdisciplinary artist project at the intersection of comic books, creative writing and performance art. This comic book, Jason vs. GIJOE, is a postmodern double erasure, based on the comic book GIJOE: Cobra II (Issue 1). The original pictures from the comic book have been removed, and replaced by a series of short narratives, describing autobiographical events from the life of the author: me, Jason. Speech bubbles from the original have been left to comment back over top of the stories, obscuring meaning but creating moments of unplanned dialogue. The comic is a readymade, twice erased: once to replace the drawings of the initial comic, and again when using the original dialogue bubbles to speak back to the narrative
