A simple question about our robot’s cleanup turned into a deep dive… and the definition of a new discrete statistical distribution 🤓🗑️➡️📊

Not world-changing, but definitely a fun journey with great colleagues!

Detection and Characterization of Plume-Dominated Wildfires
Extreme wildfires are increasingly hazardous, particularly plume-dominated fires, which exhibit unpredictable behavior due to their self-sustaining convective columns. Despite their significance, thes...
