Universities are facing growing internal and external pressures to generate income, educate a widening continuum of learners, and make effective use of digital technologies. One response has been growth of online education, catalysed by Massive Open Online Courses, availability of digital devices and technologies, and notions of borderless global education. In growing online education, learning and teaching provision has become increasingly disaggregated, and universities are partnering with a range of private companies to reach new learners, and commercialise educational provision. In this paper, we explore the competing drivers which impact decision making within English universities and their strategies to grow online education provision, through intervie...

So the myth of the maritime, equable climate brought to Europe by the Gulf Stream really needs to be seen for what it is - a myth. It is perhaps appropriate to the British Isles and Scandinavia, but certainly not to the sub-continent as a whole. And, that "Gulf Stream at its lowest in 1000...

Abstract. Forecasting heavy precipitation accurately is a challenging task for most deep learning (DL)-based models. To address this, we present a novel DL architecture called multi-scale feature fusion (MFF) that can forecast precipitation with a lead time of up to 3?h. The MFF model uses convolution kernels with varying sizes to create multi-scale receptive fields. This helps to capture the movement features of precipitation systems, such as their shape, movement direction, and speed. Additionally, the...
