Global VLM and Relative Sea Level Acceleration Derived from Global GNSS Datasets
No full text<p><strong>Description</strong></p>
<p>We provide global Vertical Land Motion (VLM) and Relative Sea Level acceleration datasets based on global GNSS data from 1994 to 2023. Selected GNSS station information (rate and acceleration) is assigned to the global coastal segment from the Dynamic Interactive Vulnerability Assessment (DIVA) model (Nicholls et al., 2021), as well as global tide gauge stations. We project these changes to 2050. A comprehensive description of the method used to derive acceleration from global GNSS datasets can be found in Sherpa et al. (2023). The method is briefly summarized below. </p>
<p> </p>
<ol>
<li>We perform step correction on the GNSS time series. </li>
<li>Following (Sherpa et al., 2023), We apply Singular Spectrum Analysis (SSA) to the time series of continental GNSS stations with observation longer than 10 years to investigate VLM rate variations.</li>
<li>We use refined time series from SSA to obtain VLM rates, acceleration, and their uncertainties.</li>
<li>We project VLM (relative sea level) to 2050, using the current rate of VLM and acceleration.</li>
<li>We provide this information at Global DIVA segments and Global tide gauge stations.</li>
</ol>
<p><strong>This dataset consists of,</strong></p>
<ol>
<li>Global GNSS Stations Velocity and Acceleration (Current): A CSV file containing derived VLM rates and their corresponding latitude and longitude.</li>
<li>Global DIVA Segment Velocity and Acceleration (Current) and 2050: A shapefile containing rates, accelerations based on GNSS, GNSS data begin date, GNSS data end date and GNSS data time duration at global DIVA segments in centimeters and time in days.</li>
<li>Global IPCC Tide Gauge Station 2050 Stations: A CSV file detailing for 2050 both from Sherpa and Shirzaei (2023) analysis and IPCC at global tide gauge.</li>
</ol>
<p>For a more detailed description of these datasets see the README file. Anyone wishing to use this dataset should cite Sherpa et al. (2023) and contact Sonam Futi Sherpa at <a href="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</a> with any questions so that we may offer guidance regarding the optimal usage of our dataset. </p>

No full textMr. Sonam Wangchuk performs Ngô rituals in the name of all the sponsors for the feast offering. Ngô is the dedication of merits in the name of sponsors. At the end of every ritual ceremony, the sponsors of the ceremony dedicate merits to all the sentient beings and the success of one's life in any future endeavor. He is praying on behalf of his fellow sponsors in front of His Eminence Tsheten Zangpo

Their parents used to borrow utensil feast offerings because they couldn't purchase them. Cheten Tshering shows the new box to keep cups, mugs, and plates when not in use

Language Oppression in the Tibetan Autonomous Region and Tibetan Prefectures
Get PDFSonam\u27s research paper discusses the Chinese government\u27s language policies in the Tibetan Autonomous Region(TAR) and Tibetan Prefectures as well as their relationship to the oppression of the Tibetan language. Throughout this paper, Sonam investigates how the Chinese Communist Party’s(CCP) state policy on language in the TAR and Tibetan Prefectures contribute to the erasure of the Tibetan language. She argues that the CCP should emphasize and make Tibetan the language of instruction in schools, higher education, and the public sphere in the TAR and Tibetan prefectures instead of treating Tibetan as subordinate in these regions
