description: Experimental and Numerical Study to Investigate Dynamic Capillary Pressure Effect
in Two-Phase Flow in Porous Media

It is known from literature that traditional equations describing two-phase flow
processes in porous media may be inadequate in case of non-equilibrium or dynamic
condition.
In the latest theory an additional dynamic term is proposed such that capillary
pressure may depends on both the rate of change of saturation in time and on
saturation.
In this work we investigate the dynamic effects on capillary pressure-saturation
relationship in a homogeneous porous medium. A series of laboratory experiments are
performed using water and Tetrachloroetylene (PCE).
The experiments consist of a continuous cycle of drainage and imbibition where
boundary pressures of 20, 30, 40 kPa are applied. Homogeneous sand is uniformly
distributed in a column of 10 cm diameter and 22 cm high. Initially the sand is
fully water saturated. A large pressure is then applied at the bottom of the
column. As the pressure of PCE is much higher than the entry pressure of the porous
media, PCE flows vertically upward in the sand replacing water. The water replaced
by PCE and the PCE that flows out of the sample during the experiment are collected
in an overflow reservoir. The cumulative flow of both phases is measured throughout
the experiment. Pressure of both water and PCE phases and water saturation are
monitored locally inside the sand sample at three different depths by means of six
pore pressure transducers (PPT) and three tetra probe’s (TP) respectively.
Beside laboratory experiments a series of numerical experiments are performed. In
one set of experiments the traditional flow equations for two-phase flow are used.
In another set of experiments the effect of the additional dynamic term are
studied. Measured and simulated capillary pressure-saturation curves are compared
and discussed in this presentation.

description: It has been shown that hot Jupiters systems with massive, hot stellar primaries exhibit a wide range of stellar obliquities. On the other hand, hot Jupiter systems with low-mass, cool primaries often have stellar obliquities close to zero. Efficient tidal interactions between hot Jupiters and the convective envelopes present in lower-mass main sequence stars have been a popular explanation for these observations. If this explanation is accurate, then aligned systems should be older than misaligned systems. Likewise, the convective envelope mass of a hot Jupiter's host star should be an effective predictor of its obliquity. We derive homogeneous stellar parameters -- including convective envelope masses -- for hot Jupiter host stars with high-quality sky-projected obliquity inferences. Using a thin disk stellar population's Galactic velocity dispersion as a relative age proxy, we find that hot Jupiter host stars with larger-than-median obliquities are older than hot Jupiter host stars with smaller-than-median obliquities. The relative age difference between the two populations is larger for hot Jupiter host stars with smaller-than-median fractional convective envelope masses and is significant at the 3.6-$σ$ level. We identify stellar mass, not convective envelope mass, as the best predictor of stellar obliquity in hot Jupiter systems. The best explanation for these observations is that many hot Jupiters in misaligned systems arrived in the close proximity of their host stars long after their parent protoplanetary disks dissipated. The dependence of observed age offset on convective envelope mass suggests that tidal realignment contributes to the population of aligned hot Jupiters orbiting stars with convective envelopes.

description: Background- Exclusive breastfeeding is a very essential, long lasting and cost effective intervention to reduce the morbidity and mortality of infants. However, the prevalence of exclusive breast feeding in Ethiopia has been expected at 52% which is far less than World Health Organization recommendations. The Ethiopian national HSDP IV also planned to increase in the proportion of exclusively breastfeeding infants under the age of six months to 70% by the end of 2015. Consequently, this study aimed to assess the prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding practices and its associated factors in Hetosa District, Arsi zone, Ethiopia. Methods: A total of 384 mothers with infant less than 2 years old were involved in this study between January and June 2016. Trained interviewers collected data from the mothers of the infants. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted. Results: Prevalence of exclusive breastfeeding was 55.2 %. Mothers who delivered at healthcare facility (OR =2.52; 95% CI: 1.55, 4.06), who had antenatal care (OR=2.01; 95% CI: 1.34, 3.03) and who initiated breastfeeding within the first one hour (OR =3.54; 95% CI: 2.23, 5.58) were more likely to practice exclusive breastfeeding than their counterparts. Conclusion and recommendation: A large proportion of children are not exclusively breastfed during the first 6 months, although what is recommended in infant and young child feeding guidelines. Maternal factors (age, education, occupation, antenatal care, initiation of breastfeeding, prelacteal and colostrum feeding), information access and delivery place were independent predictors of exclusive breastfeeding. I nutritional counselling, information access, quality of antenatal care service, place of delivery and avoiding prelacteal feeding practices are very crucial to improve exclusive breastfeeding.

description: Universality in anomaly flow by an Aharonov-Bohm (AB) phase $θ_H$ is shown in the flat $M^4 \times (S^1/Z_2)$ spacetime and in the Randall-Sundrum (RS) warped space. We analyze $SU(2)$ gauge theory with doublet fermions. With orbifold boundary conditions the $U(1)$ part of gauge symmetry remains unbroken at $θ_H = 0$ and $π$. Chiral anomalies smoothly vary with $θ_H$ in the RS space. It is shown that anomaly coefficients associated with this anomaly flow are expressed in terms of the values of the wave functions of gauge fields at the UV and IR branes in the RS space. The anomaly coefficients depend on $θ_H$, the warp factor of the RS space, and the orbifold boundary conditions for fermions, but not on the bulk mass parameters of fermions.

description: The mass profiles of massive dark matter halos are highly sensitive to the nature of dark matter and potential modifications of the theory of gravity on large scales. The $Λ$CDM paradigm makes strong predictions on the shape of dark matter halos and on the dependence of the shape parameters on halo mass, such that any deviation from the predicted universal shape would have important implications for the fundamental properties of dark matter. Here we use a set of 12 galaxy clusters with available deep X-ray and Sunyaev-Zeldovich data to constrain the shape of the gravitational field with an unprecedented level of precision over two decades in radius. On average, we find that the NFW profile provides an excellent description of the recovered mass profiles, with deviations of less than 10% over a wide radial range. However, there appears to be more diversity in the shape of individual profiles than can be captured by the NFW model. The average NFW concentration and its scatter agree very well with the prediction of the $Λ$CDM framework. For a subset of systems, we disentangle the gravitational field into the contribution of baryonic components (gas, brightest cluster galaxy, and satellite galaxies) and that of dark matter. The stellar content dominates the gravitational field inside $\sim0.02R_{500}$ but is responsible for only 1-2% of the total gravitational field inside $R_{200}$. The total baryon fraction reaches the cosmic value at $R_{200}$ and slightly exceeds it beyond this point, possibly indicating a mild level of nonthermal pressure support ($10-20\%$) in cluster outskirts. Finally, the relation between observed and baryonic acceleration exhibits a complex shape that strongly departs from the radial acceleration relation in spiral galaxies, which shows that the aforementioned relation does not hold at the galaxy-cluster scale.

description: Ethiopia has one of the highest rates of early marriage in the world, with one in two girls marrying before her 18 th birthday and one in five girls marrying before the age of 15. Early marriage means early sexual activity, and therefore early childbearing. Therefore this study intended to assess the prevalence and consequences of early marriage in Bale Zone. Community based cross-sectional study design was conducted in 2015, on a sample of 634 reproductive age women. The respondents were drawn from five randomly selected districts of Bale Zone. The total sample was allocated proportionally to each district based on the number of reproductive age women it has. Then, data were collected using pre-tested and structured questionnaire. The collected data were analyzed using SPSS for windows version 17.0. The findings of the study were presented and analyzed using descriptive methods i.e. proportion, mean and standard deviation. In addition to this, bivariate and multivariate analysis was done to see the relation between variables and 95% CL with AOR was used. The mean marital age of the study participants was 17.05 (±2.8 SD). The prevalence of early marriage was 360 (58.7%). About two third, 67.7% of school attendants dropped out school because of their marriage. As compared to those who attend grade 9 and above, those who did not attend education and grade 1-8 were 6.81 (AOR= 6.81 95% CI; 1.34-34.49) and 2.41 (AOR= 2.41 95% CI; 1.29-4.51) times more likely to married early respectively. Rural residents were 4.60 (AOR= 4.60 95% CI; 1.80-11.74) times more likely to marry early than their urban resident counter parts.

description: We investigated the Autler-Townes splitting produced by microwave transitions between atomic Rydberg states explored by optical spectroscopy from the ground electronic state. The laser-atom Hamiltonian describing the double irradiation of such a multilevel system is analysed on the basis of the Morris-Shore transformation. The application of this transformation to the microwave-dressed atomic system allows the identification of bright, dark, and spectator states associated with different configurations of atomic states and microwave polarisation. We derived synthetic spectra that show the main features of Rydberg spectroscopy. Complex Autler-Townes spectra are obtained in a regime of strong microwave dressing, where a hybridisation of the Rydberg fine structure states is produced by the driving.

Groundwater–surface water interaction: Influence of accurate river descriptions for groundwater simulations

Publisher: name: XVI International Conference on Computational Methods in Water Resources

description: The focus of this paper is the system bias present in groundwater models using
rectangular cross-sections to represent rivers, and especially wide or braided
rivers. The accurate description of surface water-groundwater interaction is of key
importance today as more and more regions manage surface and ground waters
conjunctively. This is especially true in basins where the most significant
groundwater recharge source is loss from surface water bodies. The bias is due to the
inaccuracies of the relationship between depth and flow as well as in the model for
bed conductance which should be a function of river stage. This is demonstrated via
analytical examples as well as site specific models in New Zealand. The site specific
models have been developed using the traditional Stream Package (STR) in MODLFOW, as
well as the new Stream Flow Routing Package (SFR1). These are compared to a MIKE SHE
model using MIKE 11 for the stream flow calculations. The STR, SFR1 and MIKE 11 all
use Mannings equation for flow routing along the river. However, SFR1 and MIKE 11
determine bed conductance as a function of stage, whereas STR does not. The case
study allows the direct comparison of the performance of the two different
representations for river flow. System dynamics are more accurately achieved as a
result of the more accurate relationship between flow and stage; which has direct
influence on the gradient between the river and the groundwater system. Furthermore,
MIKE 11 also allows the river time step to be disconnected from the groundwater time
step, allowing for more accurate representation of flow events that are shorter than
a groundwater time step. The case study shows how this approach can be fully
integrated into large (1000’s km2) regional scale groundwater models.  There are
three key results from this work: (1) groundwater surface water interaction is more
accurately simulated using realistic cross-sections compared to using rectangular
cross-sections, (2) short term flow events have impact the groundwater dynamics and
(3) the dynamics of simulated time series at wells and springs along rivers are much
closer to what is observed.

description: Short $γ$-ray burst (sGRB) jets form in the aftermath of a neutron star merger, drill through disk winds and dynamical ejecta, and extend over four to five orders of magnitude in distance before breaking out of the ejecta. We present the first 3D general-relativistic magnetohydrodynamic sGRB simulations to span this enormous scale separation. They feature three possible outcomes: jet+cocoon, cocoon, and neither. Typical sGRB jets break out of the dynamical ejecta if (i) the bound ejecta's isotropic equivalent mass along the pole at the time of the BH formation is $ \lesssim10^{-4}~{\rm M_{\odot}} $, setting a limit on the delay time between the merger and BH formation, otherwise, the jets perish inside the ejecta and leave the jet-inflated cocoon to power a low-luminosity sGRB; (ii) the post-merger remnant disk contains strong large-scale vertical magnetic field, $\gtrsim10^{15}$ G; and (iii) if the jets are weak ($\lesssim10^{50}$ erg), the ejecta's isotropic equivalent mass along the pole must be small ($\lesssim10^{-2}~{\rm M_{\odot}}$). Generally, the jet structure is shaped by the early interaction with disk winds rather than the dynamical ejecta. As long as our jets break out of the ejecta, they retain a significant magnetization ($\lesssim1$), suggesting that magnetic reconnection is a fundamental property of sGRB emission. The angular structure of the outflow isotropic equivalent energy after breakout consistently features a flat core followed by a steep power-law distribution (slope $\gtrsim3$), similar to hydrodynamic jets. In the cocoon-only outcome, the dynamical ejecta broadens the outflow angular distribution and flattens it (slope $\sim1.5$).

Using Large-Eddy Simulations and experiments to quantify long-range tree seed dispersal

Publisher: name: XVI International Conference on Computational Methods in Water Resources

description: One of the key challenges to quantifying long-distance seed dispersal by wind is
describing the complex and three-dimensional eddy motion inside and above canopies.
The Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) option of the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System
(RAMS), a state-of-the-art, three-dimensional, non-hydrostatic atmospheric numerical
model was modified to simulate atmospheric turbulence within and above tree canopies.
The primary modification included a new coordinate system designed to contour the
shape of trees, thereby permitting a more faithful descriptor of the interaction
between canopy morphology and the “energetic” eddies. A detailed energy balance of
the tree canopy was also introduced in the model. The model was set up to simulate
turbulence within a second-growth 180-year old hardwood stand at Duke Forest having a
mean canopy height of 30 m and a maximum leaf area index of 6. The LES was
initialized with measured hourly mean wind speed, temperature, and humidity profiles
near a 45-m tower in this stand. The various statistical moments needed to drive seed
trajectories were compared with the corresponding moments measured at the tower. A
Lagrangian Dispersion Particle Model (LDPM) driven with the turbulent flow simulated
with the RAMS-LES was then used to quantify seed dispersal at that site.  The
combined RAMS-LES and LDPM simulations adequately match the patterns of seed
dispersal as quantified by observations conducted near the tower.

description: In the framework of the relativistic generalized uncertainty principle (RGUP), we study the nonlinear Klein-Gordon field with $ϕ^4$ self-interaction. This generalization comes from the quantum gravity theories that predict the existence of a minimal measurable length scale. The quantum gravity effects slightly modify the momentum and change the Lagrangian density of the field. This model, specifically in the context of spontaneous symmetry breaking, is so fruitful and leads us to many interesting phenomena. Due to the complexity of the consequent equations, the model is normally studied via perturbation mechanisms. However, here, we apply a generalized $tanh$-method which supposed that the field solutions should be $sech$-functions of segments of space and time. By this extended method, we find some more general solutions with respect to our previous work \cite{Mir1}. Several solutions can be found but we select only the normalizable and bounded solitary fields. The energy spectrum of each field solution is obtained in an analytical form and discussed. The modification parameter of the corresponding RGUP is estimated by using the rest energy of the mass of the Higgs boson.

description: In the city of Albertslund, Denmark, the rainwater collection system has been designed with two goals in mind: i) evacuating and filtering runoff rainwater, and ii) developing rainwater detention ponds of a high aesthetic and recreational quality. The ponds have been the focus of much public attention, and there is little tolerance for pollution of the ponds by metals and oils. Thus, management of the ponds has been a high priority issue for the municipality of Albertslund. Partially due to the interest the citizens of Albertslund have taken in the ponds, the city is today a leading example of public participation in Denmark. Representatives from the residential areas of the city are part of a \342\200\234Council of Citizens\342\200\235 that deals with topics such as waste, district heating and matters concerning surface water quality and sewer systems. Since its inception in 1921, the Council has been very active in producing a number of action plans, including an action plan for rain and wastewater management, an action plan for the wetlands within the rainwater collection system, and a municipal Nature Plan. Throughout the years, Albertslund has tested a number of measures aimed at improving the quality and function of the urban drainage system and the rainwater collection ponds, while at the same time reducing the emission of pollutants to natural recipients. These measures include source control, sewer inspection and renovation, the installation of oil separators, and the construction

description: Stormwater runoff from extensive impervious surfaces in urban and suburban areas has led to human safety risks and stream ecosystem impairment, triggering an interest in watershed-scale retrofit stormwater management. Such stormwater management is of multidisciplinary relevance, posing legal, social, economic, hydrologic, and ecological challenges and constraints. A multidisciplinary approach to stormwater management is being tested in the Shepherd Creek watershed, a 20 km^2 residential and forested watershed in Cincinnati, OH (USA). An assessment of the total impervious area (TIA) revealed that a majority (50\342\200\22372%) of TIA in sub-watersheds is in rooftops and driveways, so we decided to use parcel-level best management practices (BMPs) in the form of rain barrels and rain gardens to mitigate stormwater runoff. To abide by laws concerning stormwater, a voluntary economic auction approach will be used to distribute BMPs and evaluate landowners\342\200\231 willingness-to-accept BMPs on their property in exchange for financial compensation. The hydrologic and ecologic responses to retrofit stormwater BMPs will be tested using a before-after-control-impact design, where the \342\200\234impact\342\200\235 is the installation of BMPs. This research suggests a policy prescription for retrofit management of stormwater quantity that is, if not ideal in one discipline, at least sound in all disciplines.
Relative Habitability of Exoplanet Systems with Two Giant Planets

description: The architecture of a planetary system can influence the habitability of a planet via orbital effects, particularly in the areas of stability and eccentricity. Some of these effects are readily apparent, particularly when they occur on short timescales that are easily numerically calculable. However, the appearance and evolution of life can take place on gigayear timescales, long enough that secular effects become important. These effects are difficult to investigate, as a direct integration requires significant computational time. In this paper, we apply a semi-analytic framework in conjunction with N-body integrations and predictive techniques to determine the relative habitability for an Earth-like planet in a system with two giant companions over a multidimensional parameter space. Relative habitability quantifies the integrated habitability probability compared to a system containing only a single Earth-like planet. We find trends with mass, eccentricity, location, spacing, inclination, and alignment of the giant planets, including configurations where the system is more habitable due to the giant planets. As long as the system remains stable, a moderate eccentricity excitation of the terrestrial planet can be beneficial by increasing the outer boundary of the habitable zone through higher mean irradiance. In our simulations, the median ($\pm 1 σ$) habitable planet has an eccentricity of 0.11 (+0.16, -0.08), though it started circular. Low-mass, widely separated, and moderately eccentric perturbing giants can accomplish this, an "ultra-habitable" configuration of companions.

description: In Orestad, - a 310 hectares development area in Copenhagen, storm water runoff is discharged into open canals that serve recreational purposes too. Runoff from trafficked surfaces (i.e. road runoff) has to be cleaned to obtain high quality canal water. Consequently roof runoff, which is discharged directly to the canals, and road runoff are handled in individual sewer systems. Available techniques for wastewater treatment do not fulfill the requirements in Orestad regarding effluent quality, treatment mechanisms and/or land consumption. This paper describes the development and preliminary testing of a \342\200\234green\342\200\235 concept for high-level road runoff treatment in dense urban areas. The concept is based on the patent-applied technology Dual Porosity Filtration (DPF), which mimics natural solute transport processes in fractured till. The treatment facility is built from rigid horizontal nylon sheets - supporting flow, interlaid by layers of low porosity filtering materials - supporting contaminants retention. Gravity forces silt and clay sized particles to deposit in low porosity layers, thus avoiding clogging of flow supporting layers. Dissolved contaminants are adsorbed while passing surfaces of the filtering material. No chemicals are applied. Maintenance of the facility is limited, and its lifetime is estimated to > 20 years. Green space consumption is minimized by placing the facility belowground.

We present $\log{R^{\prime}_{\rm{HK}}}$ and/or $B_l$ measurements for 954 mid-F to mid-M stars derived from spectropolarimetric observations contained within the PolarBase database. Our magnetically active sample complements previous stellar activity surveys that focus on inactive planet-search targets. We find a positive correlation between mean $\log{R^{\prime}_{\rm{HK}}}$ and mean $\log|B_l|$, but for G stars the relationship may undergo a change between $\log{R'_{\rm{HK}}}\sim-4.4$ and $-4.8$. The mean $\log{R^{\prime}_{\rm{HK}}}$ shows a similar change with respect to the $\log{R^{\prime}_{\rm{HK}}}$ variability amplitude for intermediately-active G stars. We also combine our results with archival chromospheric activity data and published observations of large-scale magnetic field geometries derived using Zeeman Doppler Imaging. The chromospheric activity data indicate a slight under-density of late-F to early-K stars with $-4.75\leq\log{R'_{\rm HK}}\leq-4.5$. This is not as prominent as the original Vaughan-Preston gap, and we do not detect similar under-populated regions in the distributions of the mean $|B_l|$, or the $B_l$ and $\log{R'_{\rm HK}}$ variability amplitudes. Chromospheric activity, activity variability and toroidal field strength decrease on the main sequence as rotation slows. For G stars, the disappearance of dominant toroidal fields occurs at a similar chromospheric activity level as the change in the relationships between chromospheric activity, activity variability and mean field strength.

Subjects: reflective learning; active learning classrooms; creativity; collaborative learning; critical thinking

description: As a follow up to last year’s presentation, we developed a practice of reflection teaching, and while witnessing our student’s learning. We reviewed what and why learning took place in our classrooms/practice rooms. This reflective practice allowed for purposeful planning. As members of the CVPA Dance faculty, we offer a follow-up on the 09-10 academic year of teaching, which encompassed ideas generated during MFA thesis research. Our table session presents how we blend undergraduate creative activity with inquiry procedures that evoke deep learning, synthesis of theory and practice, and student engagement. As collaborators in the artistic endeavor, instructors also learned from our students. This presentation describes and reflects on how Dance faculty worked with students to balance creative and critical engagement to foster intensive learning in their classrooms.

description: In recent observations of extremely metal-poor low-mass starburst galaxies, almost solar Fe/O ratios are reported, despite N/O ratios consistent with the low metallicity. We investigate if the peculiar Fe/O ratios can be a distinctive signature of an early enrichment produced by very massive objects dying as Pair-Instability Supernovae (PISN). We run chemical evolution models with yields that account for the contribution by PISN. We use both the recent non-rotating stellar yields from Goswami et al. 2021, and new yields from rotating very massive stars calculated on purpose in this work. We also search for the best initial mass function (IMF) that is able to reproduce the observations. We can reproduce the observations by adopting a bi-modal IMF and by including an initial burst of rotating very massive stars. Only with a burst of very massive stars can we reproduce the almost solar Fe/O ratios at the estimated young ages. We also confirm that rotation is absolutely needed to concomitantly reproduce the observed N/O ratios. These results stress the importance of very massive stars in galactic chemical evolution studies and strongly support a top-heavy initial mass function in the very early evolutionary stages of metal poor starburst galaxies.

description: Effective protection and management of aquatic ecosystems and other water resource values requires the establishment of clear links between catchment land use and management practice and receiving water quality. This paper demonstrates an approach to translate the receiving water protection objectives (water quality guidelines) to sustainable catchment loads of key pollutants or stressors. By comparing these values with assessments of current and projected future loads it is possible to identify the pollutant or stressor reduction targets that need to be addressed in land use and stormwater management measures. This approach is consistent with the risk based management approach and assessment process identified in the ANZECC/ARMCANZ Guidelines for Fresh and Marine Water Quality 2000. Applying this approach, the paper develops performance criteria (sustainable catchment loads) against which the selection and design of management measures can proceed in an effective and efficient manner. This approach has been adopted in the draft \342\200\234Australian Runoff Quality Guidelines \342\200\235 released buy Engineers Australia in June 2003. It is concluded that this approach provides a basis for linking performance requirements for urban stormwater management practices to receiving water quality. It also provides a model for other countries who are preparing national guidelines for the protection of sensitive receiving waters from the impact of land use change.
"TEACHING TABLE:" Teaching with Twitter in the Classroom

description: For this table session, I propose sharing my experiences using Twitter as a pedagogical tool. I will discuss both formal (i.e. required) and informal (i.e. encouraged) use of Twitter, as well in-class and out-of-class use. I will highlight several specific assignments and broader learning goals that Twitter can facilitate. These outcomes include eliciting spontaneous archivable feedback, fostering dialogue beyond the confines of the classroom, creating a space for low-stakes exploratory writing, and simply challenging students to think about technology in new ways. In addition to the advantages of using social media with students, I will address some of the drawbacks, including privacy concerns and the possible resistance from students and colleagues alike for treating what some perceive as a frivolous distraction as a serious tool for teaching and learning.

The jet and resolved features of the central supermassive black hole of M 87 observed with EHT

description: We report our independent image reconstruction of the M 87 from the public data of the Event Horizon Telescope Collaborators (EHTC). Our result is different from the image published by the EHTC. Our analysis shows that (a) the structure at 230 GHz is consistent with those of lower frequency VLBI observations, (b) the jet structure is evident at 230 GHz extending from the core to a few mas, though the intensity rapidly decreases along the axis, and (c) the unresolved core is resolved into bright three features presumably showing an initial jet with a wide opening angle of about 70 deg. The ring-like structures of the EHTC can be created not only from the public data, but also from the simulated data of a point image. Also, the rings are very sensitive to the FOV size. The u-v coverage of EHT lack about 40 micro-asec fringe spacings. Combining with a very narrow FOV, it created the 40 micro-asec ring structure. We conclude that the absence of the jet and the presence of the ring in the EHTC result are both artifacts owing to the narrow FOV setting and the u-v data sampling bias effect of the EHT array. Because the EHTC's simulations only take into account the reproduction of the input image models, and not those of the input noise models, their optimal parameters can enhance the effects of sampling bias and produce artifacts such as the 40 micro-asec ring structure, rather than reproducing the correct image.

description: The national study \342\200\230Climatic Change and Urban Drainage: Quick Scan\342\200\231, in the Netherlands has shown that climatic change can have a significant effect on the functioning of urban drainage systems, Van Luijtelaar and Dirkzwager (2002).It is important to anticipate on the effects of climatic change knowing the fact that urban drainage systems are realized for a period of 40 years or more. The follow-up project called \342\200\230strategies\342\200\231 is aimed at developing \342\200\230strategies\342\200\231 to anticipate on possible effects of climatic change on the urban drainage system. One of the project\342\200\231s main considerations is to set up cost-effective strategies, which can be refined from a general to a more specific level. The project aims to bring together the expertise of numerous specialists on the fields like: waste water systems (sewer systems, transport of sewage water, sewage treatment plants); water systems (quality, quantity, nature, ecology); urban environment (spatial planning, traffic and transport, urban development); society (legal and regulatory issues, financing, economic aspects, public perception). Several sessions were organized where experts examined the functioning of urban wastewater systems from various angles. RIZA, the Institute for Inland Water Management and Wastewater Treatment, has commissioned Tauw Consulting Engineers in cooperation with DHV and ARCADIS, to carry out this project.
Using Large-Eddy Simulations and experiments to quantify long-range tree seed dispersal

description: One of the key challenges to quantifying long-distance seed dispersal by wind is
describing the complex and three-dimensional eddy motion inside and above canopies.
The Large-Eddy Simulations (LES) option of the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System
(RAMS), a state-of-the-art, three-dimensional, non-hydrostatic atmospheric numerical
model was modified to simulate atmospheric turbulence within and above tree canopies.
The primary modification included a new coordinate system designed to contour the
shape of trees, thereby permitting a more faithful descriptor of the interaction
between canopy morphology and the “energetic” eddies. A detailed energy balance of
the tree canopy was also introduced in the model. The model was set up to simulate
turbulence within a second-growth 180-year old hardwood stand at Duke Forest having a
mean canopy height of 30 m and a maximum leaf area index of 6. The LES was
initialized with measured hourly mean wind speed, temperature, and humidity profiles
near a 45-m tower in this stand. The various statistical moments needed to drive seed
trajectories were compared with the corresponding moments measured at the tower. A
Lagrangian Dispersion Particle Model (LDPM) driven with the turbulent flow simulated
with the RAMS-LES was then used to quantify seed dispersal at that site.  The
combined RAMS-LES and LDPM simulations adequately match the patterns of seed
dispersal as quantified by observations conducted near the tower.
