论文摘要
在本文中,我们评估了最近观察跑步(2018年和2019年)与恶劣天气之间的相关性,并证明这些观察到的跑步量比预期的降雨量要多得多,增加了200%以上。我们进一步研究面临或面临干旱地区的许多天文台地点,并表明,望远镜分配委员会将遵循强大的环境利益,为我们提供了全球设施的望远镜时间过多的时间。
In this paper we assess the correlation between recent observing runs (2018 and 2019) and inclement weather, and demonstrate that these observing runs have seen much more rainfall than would otherwise be expected, an increase of over 200%. We further look at a number of observatory sites in areas that are facing or will face drought, and suggest that a strong environmental benefit would follow from telescope allocation committees providing us an inordinate amount of telescope time at facilities located around the globe.
