Microphysical observations of precipitating particles are crucial for numerical weather prediction models and remote sensing retrieval algorithms. This dataset provides a unified, comprehensive collection of particle microphysical observations from the Precipitation Imaging Package (PIP) over the Northern Hemisphere. Data spans from 2014-2023 across 10 measurement sites and encompasses over 775 thousand precipitating minutes. Within this dataset, users will find a range of microphysical attributes for rain and snow, along with higher-order products.
images of flora from nature or of specimens, family Cyperaceae. Only a few of the many sedge spp. are of interest to people in central Mali: Cyperus articulatus (aromatic tubers), Cyperus esculentus (commercialized edible tubers, "pois sucrés"), Cyperus maculatus (rootstocks burned as incense), Cyperus rotundus (edible tubers, not very good and not commercialized).
images of plants, in nature or specimens, of family Euphorbiaceae. Euphorbia sudanica may include the very similar Euphorbia paganorum. Manihot is cultivated cassava. Euphorbia balsamifera is planted along roads. The two Jatropha's (of American origin) and Ricinus are planted in villages. See also Phyllanthaceae, which were moved out of Euphorbiaceae.
Specimen GSI/GC/DD4 is a posterior portion of the skull (comprising a partial braincase and skull roof), a partial right mandible, and right pterygoid of a snake referred to the species Sanajeh indicus. The specimen was collected from Late Cretaceous-aged sediments near the village of Dholi Dungri, Gujarat, India.
The specimen is housed in Geological Survey of India Palaeontology Division, Central Region, Nagpur, India. For assistance with access, please contact Dhananjay Mohabey ( dinomohabey@yahoo.com) or Bandana Samant ( bandanabhu@gmail.com). Casts of this and other elements of Sanajeh are available at the University of Michigan Museum of Paleontology.
