Week in review – science edition

by Judith Curry
A few things that caught my eye the past few weeks.

Well, I’ve managed to meet two deadlines; my next deadlines are March 30 and April 19, so I have a small but temporary breather to work on the blog.  Below is a somewhat skimpy list of papers I’ve spotted recently; I hope you find something of interest and can point us to other links of interesting papers. (Note, I have held back a few things for full posts next week).
