Using ChatGPT in Atmospheric Science
By: Mark Muetzelfeldt ChatGPT is amazing. Seriously. Go try it: chat.openai.com/chat. So what is it? It is an artificial intelligence language model that has been trained on vast amounts of data, turning this into an internal representation of the structure of … Continue reading
Tiny Particles, Big Impact?
By Laura Wilcox Aerosols are tiny particles or liquid droplets suspended in the atmosphere. They can be created by human activities, such as burning fossil fuels or clearing land, or have natural sources, such as volcanoes. Depending on their composition, … Continue reading
