You may say to yourself occasionally, “what will they think of next?”
Turns out songs created from atmospheric research papers is “next” for things people will come up with.
Holy moly. That was amazing.
Jonathan Mann writes a “song a day” according to his youtube channel. It just so happens that today it was an academic paper. The full paper can be found here: https://journals.ametsoc.org/doi/full/10.1175/WAF-D-13-00064.1
The author of that paper even posted about this on twitter.
So, I got an e-mail today titled, “I turned your paper into a song.” Turns out, it’s legit! The abstract from my 2014 @ametsoc #WeaForecasting paper with @DVDFortyTwo and @ToddLericos was put to music. Why, I don’t know. But there’s a first for everything! https://t.co/P6NJwkN4uy

If you would’ve told me, while I was waiting for Y2K to happen, that in 2020 people were going to be singing about research papers, I would’ve told you that you were nuts.
But, here we are.
