Jonathan Mann sings a research paper

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.

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.
