Deliverable No. 1.2 Provision of process-focused and user-relevant metrics through ESMValTool
Creators: name: Jung, Thomas
Publisher: name: Zenodo
Year: 2017

description: The aim of APPLICATE is to develop enhanced predictive capacity for weather and climate in the Arctic and beyond, and to determine the influence of Arctic climate change on Northern Hemisphere mid-latitudes, for the benefit of policy makers, businesses and society. In order to place confidence in weather and climate predictions it is essential that weather and climate models are able to represent key processes in the atmosphere, oceans, land and cryosphere. In addition, a key goal of APPLICATE is user engagement and providing relevant information for policy-makers, businesses and society. To address these goals, Deliverable 1.2 aims to develop process-based metrics and diagnostics for the Arctic (Task 1.2.1) and co-develop metrics and diagnostics that are relevant for the stakeholders and users of APPLICATE outputs (Task 1.2.2). To ensure that the evaluation of weather and climate models within APPLICATE is aligned with the wider scientific community, the process-based and user-relevant metrics and diagnostics have been implemented in the open-source ESMValTool software. Metrics and diagnostics were chosen to address gaps in the current capability of ESMValTool and to address APPLICATE User Group requirements. These include ocean and sea ice process- based metrics and diagnostics and user relevant diagnostics and metrics for the shipping, energy and fishing sectors. Through Deliverable 1.2, four APPLICATE partners have further developed their capability to use and develop the ESMValTool software. Developing this capability is essential for the networking effect and wider uptake of ESMValTool at a community level. Achieving Deliverable 1.2 is an important step for APPLICATE as it sits on the critical path for the next tasks in WP1. In particular Deliverable 1.2 will enable the evaluation and assessment of the CMIP5 and CMIP6 climate models in 2018 and 2019 in Task 1.3. The metrics and diagnostics developed in WP1 will also be used to assess the improvement of weather and climate models in WP2. As well as the activity in Deliverable 1.2, additional diagnostics and metrics will be developed later in the project. In particular, metrics and diagnostics used to describe and evaluate the linkages between the Arctic and mid-latitude atmospheric circulation (especially weather and climate extremes) will be developed in APPLICATE WP1 towards the end of 2018. Additionally, the ongoing process of user engagement within APPLICATE WP7 will undoubtedly present new opportunities to co-develop metrics and diagnostics to inform other economic sectors (e.g. strong winds for local communities and the shipping and infrastructure sectors).

description: Abstract: "In this paper, we present a comparative performance evaluation of three general-purpose on-demand multicast protocols, namely ADMR, MAODV, and ODMRP, focusing on the effects of changes such as increasing number of multicast receivers or sources, application sending pattern, and increasing number of nodes in the network. We use mobile networks composed of 100 or 200 nodes, with both a single active multicast group and multiple active multicast groups in the network, in a wide range of multicast scenarios. Although some simulation results for these protocols have been published before, the three protocols have not been compared, and prior studies have focused on smaller networks using a small set of simulation scenarios, many with only a single active multicast group. We focus here on the effects of the protocol's relative degree of on-demand behavior and their performance in different multicast scenarios."
Dynamical Constraints on the Local Group from the CMB and 2MRS Dipoles

description: We place constraints on the dynamics of the Local Group (LG) by comparing the dipole of the Cosmic Microwave Background (CMB) with the peculiar velocity induced by the 2MRS galaxy sample. The analysis is limited by the lack of surveyed galaxies behind the Zone of Avoidance (ZoA). We therefore allow for a component of the LG velocity due to unknown mass concentrations behind the ZoA, as well as for an unknown transverse velocity of the Milky Way relative to the Andromeda galaxy. We infer extra motion along the direction of the Galactic center (where Galactic confusion and dust obscuration peaks) at the 95% significance level. With a future survey of the ZoA it might be possible to constrain the transverse velocity of the Milky Way relative to Andromeda.

description: We present an 880 μm Submillimeter Array (SMA) detection of the submillimeter galaxy SXDF 850.6. SXDF 850.6 is a bright source (S 850 μm = 8 mJy) detected in the SCUBA Half Degree Extragalactic Survey and has multiple possible radio counterparts in its deep radio image obtained at the VLA. Our new SMA detection finds that the submillimeter emission coincides with the brightest radio emission that is found ~8'' north of the coordinates determined from SCUBA. Despite the lack of detectable counterparts in deep UV/optical images, we find a source at the SMA position in near-infrared and longer wavelength images. We perform spectral energy distribution (SED) model fits to UV-optical-IR photometry (u, B, V, R, i', z', J, H, K, 3.6 μm, 4.5 μm, 5.8 μm, and 8.0 μm) and to submillimeter-radio photometry (850 μm, 880 μm, 1100 μm, and 21 cm) independently, and we find both are well described by starburst templates at a redshift of z 2.2 ± 0.3. The best-fit parameters from the UV-optical-IR SED fit are a redshift of z = 1.87+0.15 –0.07, a stellar mass of M = 2.5+2.2 –0.3 × 1011 M , an extinction of AV = 3.0+0.3 –1.0 mag, and an age of 720+1880 –210 Myr. The submillimeter-radio SED fit provides a consistent redshift of z ~ 1.8-2.5, an IR luminosity of L IR = (7-26) ×1012 L , and a star formation rate of 1300-4500 M yr–1. These results suggest that SXDF 850.6 is a mature system already having a massive amount of old stellar population constructed before its submillimeter bright phase and is experiencing a dusty starburst, possibly induced by major mergers.

description: Languages come with a unique set of words to label concepts so that sometimes a word in one language does not have a semantic equivalent in another language. This lack of equivalence is multi-faceted: words in two languages can be defined at different levels of abstraction, have different senses, or have conflicting affective connotations. What factors determine semantic equivalence across languages, and how are they incorporated in current theories of bilingual semantic representation? How do bilinguals navigate conflicting meanings or leverage semantic equivalence between two languages? To address these questions, this chapter will draw on recent proposals that combine multimodal experiential and linguistic representations to capture meaning. The multimodal view provides a framework to review distinct types of semantic equivalence at the feature, word, and language level. Finally, the implications of differentiating different types of semantic equivalence for bilingual studies are discussed.
Dynamic Freeze-In: Impact of Thermal Masses and Cosmological Phase Transitions on Dark Matter Production

description: The cosmological abundance of dark matter can be significantly influenced by the temperature dependence of particle masses and vacuum expectation values. We illustrate this point in three simple freeze-in models. The first one, which we call kinematically induced freeze-in, is based on the observation that the effective mass of a scalar temporarily becomes very small as the scalar potential undergoes a second order phase transition. This opens dark matter production channels that are otherwise forbidden. The second model we consider, dubbed vev-induced freeze-in, is a fermionic Higgs portal scenario. Its scalar sector is augmented compared to the Standard Model by an additional scalar singlet, $S$, which couples to dark matter and temporarily acquires a vacuum expectation value (a two-step phase transition or `vev flip-flop'). While $\langle S \rangle \neq 0$, the modified coupling structure in the scalar sector implies that dark matter production is significantly enhanced compared to the $\langle S \rangle = 0$ phases realised at very early times and again today. The third model, which we call mixing-induced freeze-in, is similar in spirit, but here it is the mixing of dark sector fermions, induced by non-zero $\langle S \rangle$, that temporarily boosts the dark matter production rate. For all three scenarios, we carefully dissect the evolution of the dark sector in the early Universe. We compute the DM relic abundance as a function of the model parameters, emphasising the importance of thermal corrections and the proper treatment of phase transitions in the calculation.

Exact results for the finite time thermodynamic uncertainty relation

description: We obtain exact results for the recently discovered finite-time thermodynamic uncertainty relation in a stochastically driven system with non-Gaussian work statistics, both in the steady state and transient regimes, by obtaining exact expressions for any moment of the dissipated work at arbitrary times. The uncertainty function (the Fano factor of the dissipated work) is bounded from below by $2k_BT$ as expected, for all times $τ$, in both steady state and transient regimes. The lower bound is reached at $τ=0$ as well as when certain system parameters vanish (corresponding to an equilibrium state). Surprisingly, we find that the uncertainty function also reaches a constant value at large $τ$ for all the cases we have looked at. For a system starting and remaining in steady state, the uncertainty function increases monotonically, as a function of $τ$ as well as other system parameters, implying that the large $τ$ value is also an upper bound. For the same system in the transient regime, however, we find that the uncertainty function can have a local minimum at an accessible time $τ_m$, for a range of parameter values. The non-monotonicity suggests, rather counter-intuitively, that there might be an optimal time for the working of microscopic machines, as well as an optimal configuration in the phase space of parameter values. Our solutions show that the ratios of higher moments of the dissipated work are also bounded from below by $2k_BT$. For another model, also solvable by our methods, which never reaches a steady state, the uncertainty function, is in some cases, bounded from below by a value less than $2k_BT$.

description: Many important phenomena in science and engineering, including our motivating problem of microstructural blood flow, can be modeled as flows with dynamic interfaces. The major challenge faced in simulating such flows is resolving the interfacial motion. Lagrangian methods are ideally suited for such problems, since interfaces are naturally represented and propagated. However, the material description of motion results in dynamic meshes, which become hopelessly distorted unless they are regularly regenerated. Lagrangian methods are particularly challenging on parallel computers, because scalable dynamic mesh methods remain elusive. Here, we present a parallel dynamic mesh Lagrangian method for flows with dynamic interfaces. We take an aggressive approach to dynamic meshing by triangulating the propagating grid points at every timestep using a scalable parallel Delaunay algorithm. Contrary to conventional wisdom, we show that the costs of the geometric components (triangulation, coarsening, refinement, and partitioning) can be made small relative to the flow solver. For example, in a simulation of 10 interacting viscous cells with 500,000 unknowns on 64 processors of a Cray T3E, dynamic meshing consumes less than 5% of a time step. Moreover, our experiments on up to 64 processors show that the computational geometry scales about as well as the flow solver. Therefore we anticipate that overall scalability on larger problems will be as good as the flow solver’s.

description: We investigate the asymptotic safety conjecture for quantum gravity including curvature invariants beyond Ricci scalars. Our strategy is put to work for families of gravitational actions which depend on functions of the Ricci scalar, the Ricci tensor, and products thereof. Combining functional renormalisation with high order polynomial approximations and full numerical integration we derive the renormalisation group flow for all couplings and analyse their fixed points, scaling exponents, and the fixed point effective action as a function of the background Ricci curvature. The theory is characterised by three relevant couplings. Higher-dimensional couplings show near-Gaussian scaling with increasing canonical mass dimension. We find that Ricci tensor invariants stabilise the UV fixed point and lead to a rapid convergence of polynomial approximations. We apply our results to models for cosmology and establish that the gravitational fixed point admits inflationary solutions. We also compare findings with those from $f(R)$-type theories in the same approximation and pin-point the key new effects due to Ricci tensor interactions. Implications for the asymptotic safety conjecture of gravity are indicated.

Deliverable No. 1.3 Provision of novel metrics, which can be effectively determined from short time series, through ESMValTool

description: Field campaigns in the Arctic, like the ongoing Year Of Polar Prediction (YOPP, 2017-2019) or the upcoming Multidisciplinary drifting Observatory for the Study of Arctic Climate (MOSAiC, 2019-2020) are key opportunities to conduct an evaluation of Earth System Models (ESMs) at the process level. This raises, however, a number of challenges as ESMs are not necessarily in phase with the actual climate for periods as short as one or two years. Here, a metric is developed to evaluate ESMs on their ability to simulate the snow and ice thicknesses and the underlying process of vertical heat conduction. The metric is derived from a diagnostic called the “heat conductivity index” that has the appealing property to be stable over time, and hence suitable for evaluation of Arctic sea ice where trends are generally strong and interannual variability high. The metric has been incorporated to the ESMValTool, a reference package for model evaluation. This will ensure wider use by the APPLICATE partners (WP1, 2, 4) but also by researchers analyzing the Coupled Model Intercomparison Project, phase 6 (CMIP6) dataset.

description: Various conventional and computational algorithms for developing a PI controller are investigated in this research. Many controllers used in the industries are conventional PID controller. For controlling any process, initially a mathematical model is identified, controller is designed and simulated to get the expected process behavior. For the purposes of this study and simulation, a lab-scale non-interacting liquid tank system is being considered. The system's mathematical model is identified, and various conventional methods for designing a PI controller is implemented. The efficiency of various computing methods is demonstrated both in simulation and in real time using Simulink software, and the simulation results of conventional algorithms are contrasted. Also, the closed loop performance indices are tabulated and compared. The simulation results that the computational PI controller shows good setpoint tracking and performance.

description: Abstract: "Ordered binary decision diagrams [1] are widely used for representing Boolean functions in various CAD applications. This paper gives a parallel algorithm for constructing such graphs and describes the performance of this algorithm on a 16 processor Encore Multimax. The execution statistics that we have obtained for a number of examples show that our algorithm achieves a high degree of parallelism. In paricular, with fifteen processors our algorithm is almost an order of magnitude faster on some examples than the program described in [2]. Moreover, on many examples it exhibits essentially linear speedup as the number of processors is increased.Our approach to binary decision diagrams is somewhat different from the one used in [1]. We view the binary decision diagram for an n-argument Boolean function as the minimal finite state automaton for the set of Boolean vectors of length n that satisfy f (i.e. the set of vectors in fΓäô(1)). Because the minimal finite automaton for a regular language is unique up to isomorphism, it is easy to argue that this representation provides a canonical form for Boolean functions. Boolean operations involving NOT, AND, OR, etc. are implemented by the standard constructions for complement, intersection, and union of the finite languages accepted by these automata.In general, each of these operations involves building a product automaton and then minimizing it. We discuss a parallel algorithm for computing the product of two automata and for minimizing the result. When we construct a binary decision graph, our algorithm follows the syntactic structure of the Boolean formula. First, the level of each Boolean operation is determined. Operations in the same level can be performed in parallel. If there are few operations at some level, then these operations are divided into a sequence of sub-operations that can be processed in parallel."

description: The advent of visible-infrared laser pulses carrying a substantial fraction of their energy in a single field oscillation cycle has opened a new era in the experimental investigation of ultrafast processes in semiconductors and dielectrics (bulk as well as nanostructured), motivated by the quest for the ultimate frontiers of electron-based signal metrology and processing. Exploring ways to approach those frontiers requires insight into the physics underlying the interaction of strong high-frequency (optical) fields with electrons moving in periodic potentials. This Colloquium aims at providing this insight. Introduction to the foundations of strong-field phenomena defines and compares regimes of field--matter interaction in periodic systems, including (perfect) crystals as well as optical and semiconductor superlattices, followed by a review of recent experimental advances in the study of strong-field dynamics in crystals and nanostructures. Avenues toward measuring and controlling electronic processes up to petahertz frequencies are discussed.

No obstante, hay una deuda pendiente desde hace más de veinte años y es la conformación del Servicio Forestal Nacional, creado legalmente desde el año 1989. Este artículo tiene por objetivo realizar una propuesta de estructuración de una institucionalidad forestal actualizada, imaginando el Servicio Forestal Nacional, a treinta años de creación del Sistema Nacional Ambiental. A partir de un recorrido por los antecedentes de la organización administrativa y la revisión de figuras similares en otros países, se propondrán algunas recomendaciones para reformular la institucionalidad forestal en Colombia.
description: Colombia has regulated the use of its forest resources for more than one hundred years through various institutional arrangements. Each reflects the priority that the forestry sector has had through time. However, there is a debt outstanding for more than twenty years: the formation of the National Forest Service, legally created in 1989. This article aims to present a proposal for the structuring of an up-to-date forest administration, imagining the National Forest Service, thirty years after the creation of the National Environmental System (SINA). Based on a review of the history of the forestry administrative organization and a review of similar institutions in other countries, some recommendations will be proposed to reformulate forestry administration in Colombia.

description: Objective: To study work participation of persons with hearing loss, and associations with hearing disabilities, self-reported workability, fatigue and work accommodation. Design: Cross-sectional internet-based survey. Study sample: A total of 10,679 persons with hearing loss within working-age were invited to answer the survey, where 3330 answered (35.6%). Results: Degree of hearing loss was associated with low workability, fatigue and work place accommodation, while sick leave was associated with fatigue. Degree of hearing loss was positively associated with being unemployed (p p p p p Conclusions: Hearing loss seemed to influence work participation factors negatively; particularly, for moderate hearing loss and for women, even though the degree of employment was high. A lack of work place accommodation when there was a need for such was found. This implies increased attentiveness towards individual needs concerning the experienced disability a hearing loss may produce. A more frequent use of hearing disability assessment is suggested.

description: The spherical Jeans equation (SJE) is widely used in dynamical modelling of the Milky Way (MW) halo potential. We use haloes and galaxies from the cosmological Millennium-II simulation and hydrodynamical APOSTLE simulations to investigate the performance of the SJE in recovering the underlying mass profiles of MW mass haloes. The best-fitting halo mass and concentration parameters scatter by 25% and 40% around their input values, respectively, when dark matter particles are used as tracers. This scatter becomes as large as a factor of 3 when using star particles instead. This is significantly larger than the estimated statistical uncertainty associated with the use of the SJE. The existence of correlated phase-space structures that violate the steady state assumption of the SJE as well as non-spherical geometries are the principal sources of the scatter. Binary haloes show larger scatter because they are more aspherical in shape and have a more perturbed dynamical state. Our results confirm the previous study of Wang et al. (2017) that the number of independent phase-space structures sets an intrinsic limiting precision on dynamical inferences based on the steady state assumption. Modelling with a radius-independent velocity anisotropy, or using tracers within a limited outer radius, result in significantly larger scatter, but the ensemble-averaged measurement over the whole halo sample is approximately unbiased.

description: Invasion of alien species is one of the major threats for natural community structures, potentially leading to high economic and environmental costs. In this work, we study through a reaction-diffusion model the dynamics of an invasion in a heterogeneous environment and in the presence of a strong Allee effect. We model space as an infinite landscape consisting of periodically alternating favourable and unfavourable patches. In addition, we consider that at the interface between patch types individuals may show preference for more favourable regions. Using homogenization techniques and a classical result for spread with Allee effect in homogeneous landscapes, we derive approximate expressions for the spread speed. When compared with numerical simulations, these expressions prove to be very accurate even beyond the expected small-scale heterogeneity limit of homogenization. We demonstrate how rates of spatial spread depend on demographic and movement parameters as well as on the landscape properties.
Towards a theoretical determination of the geographical probability distribution of meteoroid impacts on Earth

description: Tunguska and Chelyabinsk impact events occurred inside a geographical area of only 3.4\% of the Earth's surface. Although two events hardly constitute a statistically significant demonstration of a geographical pattern of impacts, their spatial coincidence is at least tantalizing. To understand if this concurrence reflects an underlying geographical and/or temporal pattern, we must aim at predicting the spatio-temporal distribution of meteoroid impacts on Earth. For this purpose we designed, implemented and tested a novel numerical technique, the "Gravitational Ray Tracing" (GRT) designed to compute the relative impact probability (RIP) on the surface of any planet. GRT is inspired by the so-called ray-casting techniques used to render realistic images of complex 3D scenes. In this paper we describe the method and the results of testing it at the time of large impact events. Our findings suggest a non-trivial pattern of impact probabilities at any given time on Earth. Locations at $60-90°$ from the apex are more prone to impacts, especially at midnight. Counterintuitively, sites close to apex direction have the lowest RIP, while in the antapex RIP are slightly larger than average. We present here preliminary maps of RIP at the time of Tunguska and Chelyabinsk events and found no evidence of a spatial or temporal pattern, suggesting that their coincidence was fortuitous. We apply the GRT method to compute theoretical RIP at the location and time of 394 large fireballs. Although the predicted spatio-temporal impact distribution matches marginally the observed events, we successfully predict their impact speed distribution.

description: Dark photon ($A'$) that couples to the standard model fermions via the kinetic mixing with photons and serves as a mediator of dark matter production could be observed in the high-energy electron scattering $e^- + Z ~\rightarrow e^- + Z + A'$ off nuclei followed by the $A' \to invisible $ decay. We have performed the exact, tree-level calculations of the $A'$ production cross sections and implemented them in the program for the full simulation of such events in the experiment NA64 at the CERN SPS. Using simulations results, we study the missing energy signature for the bremsstrahlung $A' \rightarrow $ invisible decay that permits the determination of the $γ-A'$ mixing strength in a wide, from sub-MeV to sub-GeV, $A'$ mass range. We refine and expand our earlier studies of this signature for discovering $A'$ by including corrections to the previously used calculations based on the improved Weizsaker-Williams approximation, which turn out to be significant. We compare our cross sections values with the results from other calculations and find a good agreement between them. The possibility of future measurements with high-energy electron beams and the sensitivity to $A'$ are briefly discussed.

Heuristics in direction of a p-adic Brauer--Siegel theorem

Publisher: name: arXiv

Subjects: subject: Number Theory (math.NT)

description: Let p be a fixed prime number. Let K be a totally real number field of discriminant D\_K and let T\_K be the torsion group of the Galois group of the maximal abelian p-ramified pro-p-extension of K (under Leopoldt's conjecture). We conjecture the existence of a constant C\_p>0 such that log(\#T\_K) $\le$ C\_p log(\sqrt(D\_K)) when K varies in some specified families (e.g., fields of fixed degree). In some sense, we suggest the existence of a p-adic analogue, of the classical Brauer--Siegel Theorem, wearing here on the valuation of the residue at s=1 (essentially equal to \#T\_K) of the p-adic zeta-function zeta\_p(s) of K.We shall use a different definition that of Washington, given in the 1980's, and approach this question via the arithmetical study of T\_K since p-adic analysis seems to fail because of possible abundant "Siegel zeros" of zeta\_p(s), contrary to the classical framework.We give extensive numerical verifications for quadratic and cubic fields (cyclic or not) and publish the PARI/GP programs directly usable by the reader for numerical improvements. Such a conjecture (if exact) reinforces our conjecture that any fixed number field K is p-rational (i.e., T\_K=1) for all p >> 0 .
