Cloud microphysics and aerosol indirect effects in the global climate model ECHAM5-HAM

The double-moment cloud microphysics scheme from ECHAM4 that predicts both the mass mixing ratios and number concentrations of cloud droplets and ice crystals has been coupled to the size-resolved aerosol scheme ECHAM5-HAM. ECHAM5-HAM predicts the aerosol mass, number concentrations and mixing state. The simulated liquid, ice and total water content and the cloud droplet and ice crystal number concentrations as a function of temperature in stratiform mixed-phase clouds between 0 and −35° C agree much better with aircraft observations in the ECHAM5 simulations. ECHAM5 performs better because more realistic aerosol concentrations are available for cloud droplet nucleation and because the Bergeron-Findeisen process is parameterized as being more efficient. The total anthropogenic aerosol effect includes the direct, semi-direct and indirect effects and is defined as the difference in the top-of-the-atmosphere net radiation between present-day and pre-industrial times. It amounts to −1.9 W m^−2 in ECHAM5, when a relative humidity dependent cloud cover scheme and aerosol emissions representative for the years 1750 and 2000 from the AeroCom emission inventory are used. The contribution of the cloud albedo effect amounts to −0.7 W m^−2. The total anthropogenic aerosol effect is larger when either a statistical cloud cover scheme or a different aerosol emission inventory are employed because the cloud lifetime effect increases.
Advances in Geosciences On evaluation of ensemble precipitation forecasts with observation-based ensembles

Spatial interpolation of precipitation data is uncertain. How important is this uncertainty and how can it be considered in evaluation of high-resolution probabilistic precipitation forecasts? These questions are discussed by experimental evaluation of the COSMO consortium’s limitedarea ensemble prediction system COSMO-LEPS. The applied performance measure is the often used Brier skill score (BSS). The observational references in the evaluation are (a) analyzed rain gauge data by ordinary Kriging and (b) ensembles of interpolated rain gauge data by stochastic simulation. This permits the consideration of either a deterministic reference (the event is observed or not with 100% certainty) or a probabilistic reference that makes allowance for uncertainties in spatial averaging. The evaluation experiments show that the evaluation uncertainties are substantial even for the large area (41 300 km 2) of Switzerland with a mean rain gauge distance as good as 7 km: the oneto three-day precipitation forecasts have skill decreasing with forecast lead time but the oneand two-day forecast performances differ not significantly.
Pemodelan dan Estimasi Sumberdaya Uranium di Sektor Lembah Hitam, Kalan, Kalimantan Barat

Sektor Lembah Hitam merupakan bagian dari Pegunungan Schwaner dan stratigrafi bagian atas Cekungan Kalan. Lapisan pembawa uranium (U) berasosiasi dengan metabatulanau dan metapelit sekistosan berarah N 265° E/60° S. Pemboran evaluasi telah dilakukan dengan jarak 50 m dari titik yang sudah ada (FKL 14 dan FKL 13) untuk mengetahui model dan jumlah sumber daya U berkategori terukur. Untuk mencapai tujuan tersebut beberapa kegiatan perlu dilakukan, yaitu mengkaji hasil penelitian terdahulu, pendataan geologi dan pemineralan U, estimasi kadar secara kuantitatif menggunakan log gross-count gamma ray , pembuatan basis data, pemodelan dan estimasi sumber daya U. Berdasarkan pemodelan sepuluh titik pemboran dan didukung dengan data pengamatan inti pemboran, rata-rata kadar mineralisasi U di sektor Lembah Hitam dapat diketahui. Kadar rata-rata berkisar antara 0,0076 – 0,95 % eU 3 O 8 , dengan tebal mineralisasi berkisar antara 0,1 – 4,5 m. Mineralisasi U hadir sebagai isian fraktur (urat) atau kelompok urat dan sebagai isian matrik breksi tektonik, berasosiasi dengan mineral pirit, pirhotit, magnetit, molibdenit, turmalin, dan kuarsa dalam metabatulanau dan metapelit sekistosan. Penghitungan sumber daya U terhadap 26 tubuh bijih dengan radius pencarian 25 m didapatkan tonase bijih sebesar 655,65 ton. Menggunakan cut-off grade 0,01 % eU 3 O 8 dihasilkan bijih sebanyak 546,72 ton dengan rata-rata kadar 0,101 % eU 3 O 8 . Sumber daya U dikategorikan sebagai sumber daya terukur berkadar rendah. Lembah Hitam Sector is part of Schwaner Mountains and Kalan Basin upper part stratigraphy. Uranium (U) mineralization layer is associated with metasiltstone and metapelites schistose heading to N 265° E/60° S. Evaluation drilling carried out with a distance of 50 m from an existing point (FKL 14 and FKL 13) to determine the model and the amount of U resources in measured category.

Systemic-Relational Design to Enhance Empathy Processes

The chapter investigates the role that design discipline can have in the field of human affective relationships. For this role to be effective, the designer will have to elaborate strategies, tools, and methods for the development of a new generation of relational and interactive artefacts that, through innovative analogue and digital solutions, are proposed as active mediators of interpersonal emotional relationships. Mediation can take place through the decoding of signals with a high emotional component and the management of multisensory interaction modes. The paper proposes some projects developed in this direction within the Hybrid Design Lab, a laboratory born in the Department of Architecture and Industrial Design of the University of Campania "Luigi Vanvitelli", from 2022 placed in the Department of Architecture of the University of Naples Federico II.
The high cost of care and limited evidence on cost-effective strategies for Lewy body dementia: systematic review of evidence

Background Lewy body dementia (LBD) is a prevalent yet frequently underdiagnosed form of dementia, accounting for up to 15% of all dementia cases. Aims This study aims to increase awareness and advocacy for LBD by gathering and critically assessing the economic evidence, including the cost of illness and cost-effectiveness of interventions for managing LBD. Method A systematic literature review was undertaken with EMBASE, Medline, CINAHL, PsycINFO, NHS Economic Evaluation Database and EconLit. This search was supplemented by grey literature on Google Scholar and reviewing the reference lists of identified studies. The papers included in the review were published between 2008 and 2023, and involved participants with LBD (dementia with Lewy bodies or Parkinson's disease dementia), which either addressed the cost of illness or conducted an economic evaluation. Results Thirteen papers were included, comprising ten cost-of-illness studies and three economic evaluations. The cost of LBD tends to be higher than that of other forms of dementia, such as Alzheimer's disease, and these costs escalate more steeply as the disease progresses. These cost differences may not be solely influenced by the subtype of dementia, but possibly also by patient characteristics like physical and cognitive abilities. Cost-effectiveness of potential interventions for LBD is limited. Conclusions Despite numerous drug trials and other interventions for dementia, very few have targeted LBD, let alone explored the cost-effectiveness of such therapies for LBD. This disparity highlights the urgent need for cost-effective strategies and interventions targeting LBD. We propose the establishment of universally accepted standards for LBD research.
Flow instability in high-Prandtl-number liquid bridges with fully temperature-dependent thermophysical properties

Abstract The axisymmetric steady two-phase flow of a differentially heated thermocapillary liquid bridge in air and its linear stability is investigated numerically, taking into account dynamic interfacial deformations in the basic flow. Since most experiments require a high temperature difference to drive the flow into the three-dimensional regime, the temperature dependence of the material properties must be taken into account. Three different models are investigated for a high-Prandtl-number thermocapillary liquid bridge with nominal Prandtl number ${\textit {Pr}}=28.8$: the Oberbeck–Boussinesq (OB) approximation, a linear temperature dependence of all material properties and a full nonlinear temperature dependence of all material properties. For all models, critical Reynolds numbers are computed as functions of the volume of the liquid bridge, its aspect ratio, its dimensional size and as a function of the strength of a forced axial flow in the ambient air. Under most circumstances the OB approximation overpredicts and the linear model underpredicts the critical Reynolds number, compared with the model based on the full temperature dependence of the material properties. Among the main influence factors are the proper selection of the reference temperature and, at larger temperature differences, the temperature dependence of the viscosity of the liquid.
A Generalized Semiautomated Method for Seabed Geology Classification Using Multibeam Data and Maximum Likelihood Classification

ABSTRACT Parkinson, F. ; Douglas, K. ; Li, Z. ; Meijer, A. ; Stacey, C.D. ; Kung, R. , and Podhorodeski, A. , 2024. A generalized semiautomated method for seabed geology classification using multibeam data and maximum likelihood classification. Journal of Coastal Research, 40(1), 1–16. Charlotte (North Carolina), ISSN 0749-0208. This paper presents a GIS-based model to perform semiautomated seabed classification that can act as a first-pass, pseudoclassified surficial geological map. The user can then edit the output into a finalized map in less time than by manual classification. The model uses maximum likelihood classification with unsupervised classification through iterative self-organizing clusters. This model is fully contained within the ArcGIS software suite as a ModelBuilder workflow composed of geoprocessing tools and Python script tools. Model inputs tested include different combinations of multibeam echosounder–derived data: slope, backscatter, and terrain ruggedness. Furthermore, to test the assumption of Gaussian distribution of input data required for maximum likelihood classification, Box–Cox power transformations were applied to slope and backscatter data and were used as model inputs. To illustrate the performance of the model, two locations are highlighted as case studies: Milbanke Sound and Spiller Channel, located on the central coast of British Columbia, Canada. Association between model outputs and ground-truth classes was generally weak to moderate when measured using Cramér's V association scores. Overall, the slope and backscatter parameter model had the highest scores of association. Results from an overlay analysis comparing model outputs with user-confirmed polygons show that the slope and backscatter model performs best in regions with distinct changes in the hardness of sediments but that in fjord regions dominated geologically by steeper bathymetric change, the slope parameter model may perform better. However, all model outputs had difficulty delineating bedrock units. The model has the flexibility to identify certain seabed habitat features as well, including glass sponge reefs—biologically active bioherms that have led to marine protected area designations in other areas of British Columbia.
Automatic Analysis of Cadastral Registration Status of Coastal Land Using Open Spatial Information Databases

ABSTRACT Lee, J.; Kim, J.; Kim, H. , and Wie, G. , 2023. Automatic analysis of cadastral registration status of coastal land using open spatial information databases. In: Lee, J.L. ; Lee, H. ; Min, B.I. ; Chang, J.-I. ; Cho, G.T. ; Yoon, J.-S. , and Lee, J. (eds.), Multidisciplinary Approaches to Coastal and Marine Management. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 116, pp. 260-264. Charlotte (North Carolina), ISSN 0749-0208. Coastal land adjacent to the coastline can be effectively managed by accurate topological identification of the coastline, a current-status survey, and registration on the cadastral map. However, traditional field surveys have limitations owing to poor site accessibility and large tidal differences, resulting in many unregistered lands around the coastline. This is particularly challenging for public lands that lack detailed registrations in coastal areas. To address this issue, the cadastral registration status of land was studied using automatic spatial analysis techniques applied to continuous cadastral and natural coastline maps, which constitute the latest open spatial information databases. Further, a qualitative analysis was performed using aerial ortho-photos to identify areas in which the boundaries of natural coastline and cadastral maps are mismatched. The results of this study allowed quantitative and qualitative analyses of the areas and current statuses of unregistered lands along the western coast of Jeollanam-do, Korea. Overall, this approach provides a more accurate and efficient way to manage coastal land by providing data on marine resources, marine environment, and marine pollution.
Rhynchospora waytii (Cyperaceae): A New Species with an Intriguing Disjunct Distribution in Brazil and Argentina

Abstract During the first author's doctoral research, in part developed at the New York Botanical Garden and guided by William Wayt Thomas, several new species of Rhynchospora were discovered when revising NY herbarium specimens. In this study, we describe and name one of these species as Rhynchospora waytii, in honor of this renowned sedge specialist and friend. Rhynchospora waytii is closely related to R. nanuzae but displays distinguishing characteristics such as broader leaves, inconspicuous rhizomes, and larger spikelets and stylopodia. It also exhibits a peculiar disjunct distribution, occurring in Brazil and Argentina, which is explored here with models of geographical range evolution and suitable area of occupancy. Our analysis suggests that suitable habitats have historically existed along the Atlantic coast, extending to the La Plata estuary, near the location where the Argentinian specimens were collected.
Determination of Mean Sea Level by Tide Level Observations Using Ultrasonic Sensors

ABSTRACT Lee, S. -J.; Yun, H. -S. , and Shen, C. , 2023 Determination of mean sea level by tide level observations using ultrasonic sensors. In: Lee, J.L. ; Lee, H. ; Min, B.I. ; Chang, J.-I. ; Cho, G.T. ; Yoon, J.-S. , and Lee, J. (eds.), Multidisciplinary Approaches to Coastal and Marine Management. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 116, pp. 205-209. Charlotte (North Carolina), ISSN 0749-0208. In this study, the average sea level was determined by measuring the height of the sea level at intervals of 0.6 seconds using Raspberry Pi 4 and an ultrasonic sensor. The resolution distance of the ultrasonic sensor is available from 27 cm to 800 cm, and the measurement accuracy is about 1cm. The experimental area is Sokcho on the east coast of Korea, and observations were made using an ultrasonic sensor and a Raspberry Pi for about 10 consecutive days. The observed results were analyzed using T_TIDE (Pawlowicz, Beardsley, and Lentz, 2002) and S_TIDE (Pan et al., 2018). A MATLAB toolbox, S_TIDE, developed from the widely used T_TIDE, is used to realize the approach. S_TIDE can separate oscillations in MWL, amplitudes, and phases on different time scales within a given frequency band using different number of IPs. The tidal level observation technique used in this study is a way to easily observe long-term data.

ABSTRACT Myoung, S.H. ; Ji, H. -S. ; Yu, H. -J.; Kim, H.J.; Kim, H.J., and Lee, B. -R. , 2023. Ichthyoplankton assemblage structure in Jinhae Bay, Korea. In: Lee, J.L. ; Lee, H. ; Min, B.I. ; Chang, J.-I. ; Cho, G.T. ; Yoon, J.-S. , and Lee, J. (eds.), Multidisciplinary Approaches to Coastal and Marine Management. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 116, 583-587. Charlotte (North Carolina), ISSN 0749-0208. Many studies on the species composition of ichthyoplankton have been conducted in Jinhae Bay. However, none have focused on the species' composition and distribution patterns. Therefore, herein, the species composition and distribution patterns of ichthyoplankton collected from January to December 2021 from Jinhae Bay, South Sea of Korea, were investigated. An oblique tow was collected from the bottom to the surface using a bongo net (80 cm, 330 µm) from eight stations. The collected samples were identified using morphological analysis and mtDNA cytochrome oxidase subunit I and 16S rRNA sequencing. A total of 66,938 ± 189,267 eggs/1000 m3 (mean ± Standard Deviation, SD) belonging to 30 species and 23 families, and 14,834 ± 31,325 larvae/1000 m3 from 45 species and 25 families, were collected from Jinhae Bay. The dominant egg species were Engraulis japonicus (93.4%), Repomucenus valenciennei (1.5%), and Nuchequula nuchalis (1.2%). Clupea pallasii (92.4%), R. valenciennei (2.5%), and E. japonicus (1.6%) were the dominant larval species. As a result of non-metric multidimensional scaling, fish were divided into two groups: One group spawns during low water temperatures and the other group spawns during high water temperatures.
Two New Species of Aphyllon from Northeastern Mexico

Abstract Plants originally identified as Aphyllon ludovicianum that occur near Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, and Cuatro Ciénegas Bolson, Coahuila, Mexico, were found to not align with the protologue of that species, the close relative A. multiflorum, or any other species of Aphyllon. Following a detailed study of floral morphology, geographic range, host species, and phylogenetic position using dry herbarium specimens, field study, and georeferenced color photographs, we propose the new binomials Aphyllon spectabile for the plants from Nuevo Leon and Aphyllon gypsophilum for the plants from Coahuila, Mexico. These additions increase the taxonomic diversity of Aphyllon to 27 species plus ten additional subspecies. Gymnosperma glutinosum and two species of Xanthisma were reported for the first time as a host species for the genus Aphyllon. We also provide an updated key to Aphyllon in Mexico. Resumen—Las plantas identificadas como Aphyllon ludovicianum y que ocurren cerca de Monterrey, Nuevo León y Cuatro Ciénegas Bolsón, Coahuila, México no se alineaban con el protólogo de A. ludovicianum, de A. multiflorum o de alguna otra especie de Aphyllon. La morfología floral, rango geográfico y la especie de planta hospedera fueron incluidas en esta comparación utilizando ejemplares de herbario y múltiples fotografías a color. Proponemos el nuevo binomio Aphyllon spectabile para las plantas de Nuevo León y Aphyllon gypsophilum para las plantas de Coahuila, llevando la total diversidad taxonómica a 27 especies de Aphyllon y 10 subespecies adicionales. Gymnosperma glutinosum y dos especies de Xanthisma son reportadas por primera vez como planta hospedera para el género Aphyllon. Se presenta una clave actualizada de Aphyllon en México.
Impact of Green Supply Chain Management on Cost Stickiness of Chinese Fishery Enterprises

ABSTRACT Su, X. ; Kwon, J.; Huang, S. , and Zhang, M. , 2023. Impact of green supply chain concentration on cost stickiness of fishery enterprises. In: Lee, J.L. ; Lee, H. ; Min, B.I. ; Chang, J.-I. ; Cho, G.T. ; Yoon, J.-S. , and Lee, J. (eds.), Multidisciplinary Approaches to Coastal and Marine Management. Journal of Coastal Research, Special Issue No. 116, pp. 403-407. Charlotte (North Carolina), ISSN 0749-0208. The depletion of fishery resources, the extension of the fishing moratorium, the rise of oil prices in the macroeconomic environment, and increased costs have all affected China's fishery industry. In addition, the market demand for aquatic products has decreased significantly due to the macroeconomic environment's fierce competition and the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. The price of aquatic products has had less and less room to rise. However, the prices of production factors, such as raw materials and human capital, have remained high, and the profit margin of enterprises has been consistently shrinking. This study examines Chinese fishery listed firms' cost stickiness behavior (i.e., firms' asymmetric cost reaction to sales changes). Using financial data from 2000 to 2021, it was determined that the cost behavior of Chinese fishery enterprises is significantly asymmetric. Further, it was found that green supply chain concentration decreases firms' cost stickiness. Results show that increasing the supply chain's operational efficiency decreases firms' cost stickiness by improving enterprises' resource allocation.
From Dissonance to Dialogue: A Token-Based Approach to Bridge the Gap Between Manufacturers and Customers

This paper presents a novel token-based recall communication system, which integrates Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) systems and blockchain technology to enhance recall communication and cooperation between manufacturers and customers. We employed a design science research methodology to develop a set of design principles and features that support the interoperable system. Our findings demonstrate that we can significantly improve recall coordination, traceability, and co-value creation between involved parties. By focusing on the integration potential of traditional technologies like ERP systems with blockchain and token techniques, we reveal innovative synergies for both social and technical subsystems. The study explores the implications of the proposed system for both theory and practice, offering insights into the advantages and challenges of such integration. The evaluation conducted with industry experts demonstrates high reusability of the design principles.
