Subjects: Pavements -- Design and construction

description: The first part of this study evaluates the effect of load-strain linear proportionality assumption employed in the Mechanistic-Empirical Pavement Design Guide (MEPDG) design of flexible pavements. In the design procedure, the strains computed through Jacob Uzan Layered Elastic Analysis (JULEA) are used to accumulate the damage and distresses over the design period. To minimize computing time, the MEPDG makes the assumption that the computed strains are linearly proportional to the applied load and exploits this assumption to extrapolate strains from an 18 kip single axle load and the specified tire pressure to the entire load spectrum in the traffic composition. However, in reality, for truck loads of interest, the contact (tire inflation) pressure remains within a narrow range whereas the contact area changes with axle load. The study showed that this assumption can lead to significant error in the prediction of Hot Mix Asphalt (HMA) rutting. A method that computes strains at three reference axle loads, and extrapolates or interpolates the strain values for other axle loads is shown to provide a suitable alternative to the MEPDG assumption. The second phase of the study is on the improvements to the reliability analysis currently used by the MEPDG. This procedure relies on the variability of the measured output (distress) obtained from a data base. This does not directly account for the variability of the input parameters that induce such variability in distress in reliability predictions. This study developed a reliability procedure that directly evaluates the effect of uncertainties in the model input parameters of HMA materials on the reliability of flexible pavements using Monte Carlo and Latin Hypercube simulation and Rosenblueth s 2K+1 point estimate method. The proposed reliability procedure also uses some techniques to reduce the extensive computational time involved in simulations. The Latin Hypercube simulation method is found to be an efficient alternative to the computationally intensive Monte Carlo simulation. Rosenblueth s 2K+1 point estimate method is not capable to capture the output distribution type. Robust sensitivity analyses through Tornado plots and extreme tail analyses are used to identify the relative importance of the input variables on the predicted distress.

description: Maintaining a permanent forest canopy cover and eventually harvesting wood in a final harvest according to predefined dimensions is often considered as prototype for future management of deciduous forests. An uneven-aged structure is considered by the public to resemble “natural” conditions, and by forest engineers it is considered as being more resilient to disturbances. In the Hainich-Dün region of Thuringia, Germany, beech-dominated selection forests covering about 10,000 ha have been managed for almost 1000 years, initially by irregular use, but as regular selection system since about 200 years. Managing these stands remains difficult, due to the lack of yield tables and a quantification of harvest of uneven-aged stands considering differences in site conditions and handling of over-sized trees. It is the objective of the present study to develop tables of target stand volumes, increments, and harvest for different diameter ranges of uneven-aged stands according to site conditions. The present study is based on repeated grid-based inventories of about 2150 plots, which were partly re-inventoried 3 times over the past 20 years. The recommended target wood volumes vary between 296 and 388 m3 ha−1. Stand growth rates of different yield classes were estimated to range between 6.7 and 7.7 m3 ha−1 yr−1 which is 30% lower than for age class forest. Nevertheless, the economic returns are higher. Thus, selective cutting with single tree selection remains a viable silvicultural system, but it may change over time into small-scale shelter-woods for improving growth of regeneration.

description: We calculate the components of the microscopic pressure tensor as a function of radial distance r from the centre of a spherical water droplet, modelled using the TIP4P/2005 potential. To do so, we modify a coarse-graining method for calculating the microscopic pressure [T. Ikeshoji, B. Hafskjold, and H. Furuholt, Mol. Simul. 29, 101 (2003)] in order to apply it to a rigid molecular model of water. As test cases, we study nanodroplets ranging in size from 776 to 2880 molecules at 220 K. Beneath a surface region comprising approximately two molecular layers, the pressure tensor becomes approximately isotropic and constant with r. We find that the dependence of the pressure on droplet radius is that expected from the Young-Laplace equation, despite the small size of the droplets.

description: L'ensemble de ces notes ont été crée par John Baldwin lors d'une de ses premières périodes de résidence à Paris. Ces documents comprennent tous les magistri qu’il avait pu rencontrer dans ses sources. Aux XIIème et XIIIème siècles, les universités n'existant pas encore, le titre de magister s'il évoque certainement une compétence n'est pas rattaché de façon systématique au passage par les écoles. De surcroît, les magistris sont le plus souvent désignés par leur seul prénom. La lecture de ces données est donc difficile et suppose un long travail pour tenter d'identifier un individu auquel on pourrait rattacher plusieurs mentions. John Baldwin avait donc renoncé à utiliser ces données pour donner un prolongement à sa magnifique étude sur les gradués d'université et leur emploi par les Capétiens et les Plantagenêts. Néanmoins, il a conservé ces données et elles sont potentiellement très utile dans le cadre de Studium, comme le sont toutes les mentions dans les volumes des Fasti Ecclesiae Gallicanae de chanoines portant ce titre de magister sans autres précisions. L'ampleur des dépouillements rend ces données très utiles et nous devons une grande reconnaissance à John Baldwin pour avoir pris la peine de faire photocopier ses fiches et de nous les avoir transmises amicalement.

description: We study the entropy production of a system with a finite number of states connected by random transition rates. The stationary entropy production, driven out of equilibrium both by asymmetric transition rates and by an external probability current, is shown to be composed of two contributions whose exact distributions are calculated in the large system size and close to equilibrium. The first contribution is related to Joule's law for the heat dissipated in a classical electrical circuit whereas the second one has a Gaussian distribution with an extensive average and a finite variance.

description: The transport coefficients of quark gluon plasma are calculated on a lattice 16**3X8, with the pure gauge models. Matsubara Green's functions of energy momentum tensors have very large fluctuations and about a few million MC sweeps are needed to reduce the errors reasonably small in the case of the standard action. They are much suppressed if Iwasaki's improved action is employed. Preliminary results show that the transport coefficients roughly depend on the coupling constant as a**(-3)(g) in the case of SU(2).

description: A neural network with two hidden layers is developed for nuclear mass prediction, based on the finite-range droplet model (FRDM12). Different hyperparameters, including the number of hidden units, the choice of activation functions, the initializers, and the learning rates, are adjusted explicitly and systematically. The resulting mass predictions are achieved by averaging the predictions given by several different sets of hyperparameters with different regularizers and seed numbers. It can provide us not only the average values of mass predictions but also reliable estimations in the mass prediction uncertainties. The overall root-mean-square deviations of nuclear mass have been reduced from $0.603$ MeV for the FRDM12 model to $0.200$ MeV and $0.232$ MeV for the training set and validation set, respectively.

description: A technique to levitate and measure the three-dimensional position of micrometer-sized dielectric spheres with heterodyne detection is presented. The two radial degrees of freedom are measured by interfering light transmitted through the microsphere with a reference wavefront, while the axial degree of freedom is measured from the phase of the light reflected from the surface of the microsphere. This method pairs the simplicity and accessibility of single beam optical traps to a measurement of displacement that is intrinsically calibrated by the wavelength of the trapping light and has exceptional immunity to stray light. A theoretical shot noise limit of $1.3\times10^{-13}\,\text{m}/\sqrt{\text{Hz}}$ for the radial degrees of freedom, and $3.0\times10^{-15} \, \text{m}/\sqrt{\text{Hz}}$ for the axial degree of freedom can be obtained in the system described. The measured acceleration noise in the radial direction is $7.5\times10^{-5} \, (\text{m/s}^2)/\sqrt{\text{Hz}}$.

description: Recently it was shown that a molecule rotating in a quantum solvent can be described in terms of the `angulon' quasiparticle [Phys. Rev. Lett. 118, 095301 (2017)]. Here we extend the angulon theory to the case of molecules possessing an additional spin-1/2 degree of freedom and study the behavior of the system in the presence of a static magnetic field. We show that exchange of angular momentum between the molecule and the solvent can be altered by the field, even though the solvent itself is non-magnetic. In particular, we demonstrate a possibility to control resonant emission of phonons with a given angular momentum using a magnetic field.

description: A search is reported for near-threshold structures in the J/$ψ$J/$ψ$ invariant mass spectrum produced in proton-proton collisions at $\sqrt{s}$ = 13 TeV from data collected by the CMS experiment, corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 135 fb$^{-1}$. Three structures are found, and a model with quantum interference among these structures provides a good description of the data. A new structure is observed with a significance above 5 standard deviations at a mass of 6638 $^{+43}_{-38}$ (stat) $^{+16}_{-31}$ (syst) MeV. Another structure with even higher significance is found at a mass of 6847 $^{+44}_{-28}$ (stat) $^{+48}_{-20}$ (syst) MeV, which is consistent with the X(6900) resonance reported by the LHCb experiment and confirmed by the ATLAS experiment. Evidence for another new structure, with a local significance of 4.7 standard deviations, is found at a mass of 7134 $^{+48}_{-25}$ (stat) $^{+41}_{-15}$ (syst) MeV. Results are also reported for a model without interference, which does not fit the data as well and shows mass shifts up to 150 MeV relative to the model with interference.

description: We compare the approach to the chiral transition line $~κ_c(\bt)~$ in quenched and full compact lattice QED with Wilson fermions within the confinement phase, especially in the pseudoscalar sector of the theory. We show that in the strong coupling limit ($β=0$) the quenched theory is a good approximation to the full one, in contrast to the case of $β=0.8$. At the larger $β$-value the transition in the full theory is inconsistent with the zero--mass limit of the pseudoscalar particle, thus prohibiting the definition of a chiral limit.

description: This study follows up on a previous experiment in which we observed that participants were more influenced by ingroup compared to non-ingroup crowd members when deciding whether or not to run away from a potentially threatening loud sound, only when they did hear that sound. The present study aims to replicate the data from Study 1 with an experimental manipulation of whether or not the sound is displayed. For this, we will use a 2(Presence of sound: sound, no sound) x 3(Crowd Running Behaviour: control [everyone ignores], ingroup runs [non-ingroup ignores], non-ingroup runs [ingroup ignores]) between-participants design. Overall we expect to replicate the pattern of more social influence from ingroup compared to non-ingroup crowd members only when the sound is presented (and the participants heard it).
New developments for ALICE MasterClasses and the new Particle Therapy MasterClass

Year: 2019

description: Heavy-ion physics is present within the "International MasterClasses" for almost ten years. New developments aiming at expanding their scope and reach are presented in this talk. First, in line with the physics research of typical heavy-ion experiments, three measurements were developed based on actual data analysis in the ALICE experiment at CERN/LHC. They correspond to the most important observables studied to characterise the properties of matter produced in energetic collisions of ions or protons. Then, with the aim to highlight applications from fundamental research for society a new MasterClass was developed on Particle Therapy for cancer treatment highlighting the benefits of therapy with carbon ions. A good example is the fact that for this therapy the heavy-ion research centre GSI, Germany, played a pioneering role in Europe, in 90s, leading to the construction of the HIT therapy centre in Heidelberg. Both masterclasses had challenging requirements on software developments as they had to be realistic but also easy to use. In particular, recent developments resulted in a single modular framework integrating all three ALICE measurements supporting coherent further expansions. This framework can be built as a standalone application which can run on Linux by a simple double click, without the need of separate ROOT installation while necessary ROOT libraries are built in the executable using the AppImage format. The work of migrating the framework to a web environment has started and a proof of concept is presented. For the Particle Therapy Masterclass (PTMC) the software used, matRad based on Matlab, is a professional open source toolkit developed by the cancer therapy research centre DKFZ in Heidelberg for research and training. It allows optimising the dose to be delivered to the patient (treatment planning) using photons, protons or ions. For the masterclass, first a phantom is used to explain the concepts and it is followed by treatments of head and liver tumours. PTMC demonstrates applications of fundamental physics research for cancer treatment, namely, the use of accelerators, detectors, and understanding interactions of different particles with matter.

description: Cities have important roles in biodiversity restoration and management. Local municipalities, as key land managers, play critical roles since some species are restricted to small patches of urban habitat, and some are considered threatened. Evolving approaches to urban nature policy, strategy and implementation demonstrate increasing sophistication and complexity, with approaches transitioning towards the adoption of more complex objectives, that address a wider range of urban nature forms, species and ecosystems. These objectives are increasingly underpinned by urban ecology research, citizen science participation and political championing. This paper adopts a ‘dialogue’-adapted research approach to examine the evolution of the City of Melbourne's urban nature policies and actions across the decade from 2010 to 2020. We identify the key factors that enabled the endorsement and implementation of this capital city's Nature in the City strategy, analysing the science-policy interface and governance aspects that underpinned this significant policy transition. Through interviews and workshops with a range of actors involved in the implementation of the City of Melbourne's urban nature policies and activities over the last 10 years, we identify lessons learned that can be applied in other cities by urban land managers. In doing so, we argue that Melbourne's focus on biodiversity conservation and opportunities for restoration of species and ecological processes constitute important innovations in urban landscape policy.
title: Praise, blame, and oracle
title: The rhetorical tropes of political economy
titleType: Subtitle
Creators: name: Petersen, Jerry Lamar
Publisher: name: Washington State University

Subjects: Economics -- Moral and ethical aspects

description: What I call the three master tropes of political economy (praise, blame, and oracle) are employed to demystify the writings of economists from the classical tradition epitomized by the moralist philosophy of the rhetorician Adam Smith, to the neoclassical schools proffering mathematical models to explain and predict, professing an infallible "science of economics." Ideological and materialistic, economic writings are especially concerned with private and public virtue, and thus they are inherently epideitic because they employ value-laden rhetoric to shape human behavior by strengthening attitudes and beliefs about how material outcomes are ideally achieved, including in the purportedly value-free domain of neoclassical and modern mainstream economics. My key terms are a heuristic to better comprehend the range of disagreement in political economy, which belies a movement from social and historical rhetorical concerns (inductive reasoning) to logic-bound abstract methods of investigation (deductive rationality). Praise and blame are the tropes used to hone in on qualities worthy of honor or dishonor (the good, true, and beautiful) in economic affairs, including goals, methods, and the basic building blocks of analysis (thus, the rhetoric) of various economic schools of thought. Oracle refers to a special brand of knowledge production in classical political economy that is demonstrated by the re-telling of creation myths and the rereading of history in search of the origins of human economics. Modern mainstream economics (an offshoot of neoclassical schools) employs the oracle to promise accurate prediction of the future by way of oblique signs found in complex mathematical models, but it ironically uses an inductive postulate of classical economics as a deductive (and uncontestable) first principle namely, the notion of individual self-interest as the prime motive of human behavior. I argue that the rhetoric of political economy is forever proving opposites, concerned with dramatic antithesis and reversals, a conflict that remains on the forefront of philosophy, rhetoric, and political economy, and which concerns the contrastive pairs of science versus social science, individualism verses collectivism, states versus markets, socialism versus capitalism, and finally, political economy versus a science of economics.
Efficient treatment of local meta-generalized gradient density functionals via auxiliary density expansion: the density fitting (DF) J+X approximation

description: We report an efficient technique to treat density functionals of the meta-generalized gradient approximation (mGGA) class in conjunction with density fitting of Coulomb terms (DF-J) and exchange-correlation terms (DF-X). While the kinetic energy density $τ$ cannot be computed in the context of a DF-JX calculation, we show that the Laplacian of the density $\upsilon$ can be computed with almost no extra cost. With this technique, $\upsilon$-form mGGAs become only slightly more expensive (10%--20%) than GGAs in DF-JX treatment---and several times faster than regular $τ$-based mGGA calculations with DF-J and regular treatment of the density functional. We investigate the translation of $\upsilon$-form mGGAs into $τ$-form mGGAs by employing a kinetic energy functional, but find this insufficiently reliable at this moment. However, $\upsilon$ and $τ$ are believed to carry essentially equivalent information beyond $ρ$ and $\Vert\vec\nablaρ\Vert$ [Phys. Rev. B 2007, 75, 155109], so a reparametrization of accurate mGGAs from the $τ$-form into the $\upsilon$-form should be possible. Once such functionals become available, we expect the presented technique to become a powerful tool in the computation of reaction paths, intermediates, and transition states of medium sized molecules.

Etiology and population biology of Sclerotinia species causing stem and crown rot of chickpea

Year: 2009
Subjects: Chickpea -- Diseases and pests

description: Sclerotinia spp. are destructive and cosmopolitan plant pathogens causing diseases on more than 400 plant species. In the 2005-2006 growing season, widespread occurrence of stem and crown rot of chickpea was observed in the Central and Sacramento Valleys of California. Previously S. minor and S. sclerotiorum were reported to infect chickpea in the US. However, the majority of Californian isolates differed from the reported species in growth rate and oxalic acid production. Isolates were characterized based on presence or absence of ascospore dimorphism, rDNA group I introns and ITS sequences. Most Californian isolates were identified as Sclerotinia trifoliorum. This is the first report of S. trifoliorum infecting chickpea in North America. Since there are no existing molecular markers available to study the population biology of S. trifoliorum, efforts were made to develop microsatellite markers suitable for S. trifoliorum by constructing a microsatellite-enriched library. Thirty-three microsatellite loci were developed, the majority of which were transferable to S. sclerotiorum and to a less extent for S. minor, but not for S. homoeocarpa. This shows that S. homoeocarpa is genetically distant from other members of the genus Sclerotinia. Microsatellite markers, mycelial compatibility groupings (MCG), rDNA introns and sequence related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers were used to study the diversity and genetic structure of a collection of 136 isolates of S. trifoliorum. The 136 isolates displayed high levels of genetic diversity. For example, 116 microsatellite haplotypes were found among the 136 isolates, with most haplotypes consisting of single isolates. No correlation between genotype and geography was found, and related genotypes were distributed across the sampling area, strongly suggesting human-assisted dispersal. We tested the hypothesis of monocyclic spread in S. trifoliorum by strain typing 57 sclerotial isolates derived from crown infected plants in 17 disease foci. Although the existence of plant-to-plant spread was supported based on chi-square tests of the distribution of MCGs in infected plants, the majority of the isolate-pairs from adjacent plants were of different haplotypes and MCGs, suggesting that plant-to-plant spread is of secondary importance in the epidemic and S. trifoliorum is primarily a monocyclic pathogen of chickpea.

description: We present observational constraints on the stellar populations of two ultra-diffuse galaxies (UDGs) using optical through near-infrared (NIR) spectral energy distribution (SED) fitting. Our analysis is enabled by new $Spitzer$-IRAC 3.6 $μ$m and 4.5 $μ$m imaging, archival optical imaging, and the prospector fully Bayesian SED fitting framework. Our sample contains one field UDG (DGSAT I), one Virgo cluster UDG (VCC 1287), and one Virgo cluster dwarf elliptical for comparison (VCC 1122). We find that the optical--NIR colors of the three galaxies are significantly different from each other. We infer that VCC 1287 has an old ($\gtrsim7.7$ Gyr) and surprisingly metal-poor ($[Z/Z_{\odot}]\lesssim-1.0$) stellar population, even after marginalizing over uncertainties on diffuse interstellar dust. In contrast, the field UDG DGSAT I shows evidence of being younger than the Virgo UDG, with an extended star formation history and an age posterior extending down to $\sim3$ Gyr. The stellar metallicity of DGSAT I is sub-solar but higher than that of the Virgo UDG, with $[Z/Z_{\odot}]=-0.63^{+0.35}_{-0.62}$; in the case of exactly zero diffuse interstellar dust, DGSAT I may even have solar metallicity. With VCC 1287 and several Coma UDGs, a general picture is emerging where cluster UDGs may be "failed" galaxies, but the field UDG DGSAT I seems more consistent with a stellar feedback-induced expansion scenario. In the future, our approach can be applied to a large and diverse sample of UDGs down to faint surface brightness limits, with the goal of constraining their stellar ages, stellar metallicities, and circumstellar and diffuse interstellar dust content.

description: More and more people feel uncomfortable when thinking about climate change and biodiversity loss. This can affect both how they feel and how they act to help mitigate those problems. Psychologists believe that talking about global environmental problems can aid people to cope with these problems. In this project, we want to understand whether private conversations about global environmental change can have a supportive function. More specifically, we want to understand how people talk about global environmental change and whether private conversations are related to how people feel and how they act to protect the environment.

We are also interested in whether people feel that their conversation partners understand their thoughts and feelings when talking about global environmental change. This is called 'empathic understanding'. Based on research in other fields, we assume that experiencing empathic understanding is beneficial. We expect that empathic understanding protects from negative mental health impacts and helps people to act in environmentally friendly ways.

Furthermore, literature suggests that spending time in nature can contribute to well-being. However, it remains unclear what effect spending time in nature has on people who experience unpleasant feelings when thinking about environmental change. Some research shows that spending time in nature may reinforce unpleasant 'environmental feelings'. In an ongoing research project at Lund University, we analyze these contradictions theoretically. In this project, we will work with empirical data to increase the understanding of how thoughts about global environmental change are related to nature contact and connectedness, as well as the emotions that people experience when thinking about environmental change.

The study will be conducted as a questionnaire survey addressed to a stratified sample of the Swedish population in three different landscape types, coast, forest and mountains. A random sample of 7000 people will be invited to respond to the survey. Data will be analyzed quantitatively and qualitatively.
title: Narrating other natures
title: a third wave ecocritical approach to Toni Morrison, Ruth Ozeki, and Octavia Butler

Subjects: Nature in literature

description: This study examines literary constructions of nature and the natural in works by women of color. Together, these chapters explore how oppressive environmental narratives are often used by dominant power structures to develop and maintain dominance and, by using a third wave ecocritical approach that puts ecofeminist and environmental justice perspectives at the center of ecocritical cultural studies, these chapters reveal how literature can challenge such narratives and create opportunities for counter narratives to be voiced. Each novel discussed takes on a different strain of oppressive environmental narrative that has been co-opted or apportioned for a specific agenda, be it racist, capitalist, or colonial. Through fiction, Toni Morrison, Ruth Ozeki, and Octavia Butler are able to expose these narratives, to call attention to the damage wreaked by these narratives, and to produce counter-narratives which disrupt the idea that nature is a static monolith which can be looked to in order to justify an agenda and solidify an identity. Chapter one offers an overview of ecocriticism and how it started and how it evolved. It discusses how first wave ecocritics, amidst the urgency to instill an environmental ethic in readers of literature, had a tendency to celebrate a seemingly universal nature that offered comfort and serenity. Chapter two examines Toni Morrison s Beloved and the history of African American women s views of nature and how the institution of slavery fractured African American relationships with the environment and rendered nature as a place of conflict for slaves. The third chapter discusses Ruth Ozeki s novel My Year of Meats and transnational environmental issues as seen in food production and consumption. It looks at how environmental narratives are used in order to privilege corporate power and profit, through a compartmentalized, controlled view of nature that relies on essentialized racial and gendered identities. The final chapter on Octavia Butler s Xenogenesis Trilogy focuses on rejecting the natural through the use of science fiction that highlights and magnifies the ways that environmental issues are being manipulated and used to maintain existing hierarchies.
Weak first-order phase transitions in the frustrated square lattice J1-J2 classical Ising model

description: The classical $J_1$-$J_2$ Ising model on the square lattice is a minimal model of frustrated magnetism whose phase boundaries have remained under scrutiny for decades. Signs of first-order phase transitions have appeared in some studies, but strong evidence remains lacking. The current consensus, based upon the numerical data and theoretical arguments in [S. Jin et al., Phys. Rev. Lett. \textbf{108}, 045702 (2012)], is that first-order phase transitions are ruled out in the region $g = J_2/|J_1|\gtrsim 0.67$. We point out a loophole in the basis for this consensus, and we find strong evidence that the phase boundary is instead weak first-order at $0.67\lesssim g<\infty$ such that it asymptotically becomes second-order when $g\rightarrow\infty$. We also find strong evidence that the phase boundary is first-order in the region $0.5

Evaluation of Linux distributions for SoC devices on custom electronics in the CMS Network

description: System on Chip (SoC) devices have become popular for custom electronics HEP boards. Advantages include the tight integration of FPGA logic with CPU, and the option for having relatively powerful CPUs, with the potential of running a fully fledged operating system. In the CMS trigger and data acquisition system, there are already a small number of back-end electronics boards with Xilinx Zync SoCs in use since 2015 (LHC run-2). These are stand-alone installations. For the High Luminosity phase of the LHC starting around 2026, entirely new CMS back-end electronics is being developed. It is expected that SoC devices will be used at large scale (order of 1000) comparable to the number of High Level Trigger (HLT) nodes today, but with diverse use cases, hardware types, and capabilities (memory, cpu power). This large scale will pose challenges for their integration in the experiment network, system administration services and overall configuration management. Issues include the time distribution, IP/name distribution (DHCP or other), remote system logs, read-only or read-write root file systems, NFS mounted root or application file systems, local or network system boot, and configuration management of devices on various linux distributions. Furthermore, with the emergence of more powerful CPUs it will be interesting to see how much of the data acquisition control and monitoring software could or should be deployed on those devices compared to server PCs. We have evaluated a number of Linux distributions (Yocto, PetalLinux, ArchLinux, CentOS), addressing the complexity of building a distribution, the requirements on hardware resources, and the characteristics for network and sysadmin integration.
Topological Signature of Stratospheric Poincare -- Gravity Waves

description: The rotation of the earth breaks time-reversal and reflection symmetries in an opposite sense north and south of the equator, leading to a topological origin for certain atmospheric and oceanic equatorial waves. Away from the equator the rotating shallow water and stably stratified primitive equations exhibit Poincare inertio-gravity waves that have nontrivial topology as evidenced by their strict superinertial timescale and a phase singularity in frequency-wavevector space. This non-trivial topology then predicts, via the principle of bulk-interface correspondence, the existence of two equatorial waves along the equatorial interface, the Kelvin and Yanai waves. To directly test the nontrivial topology of Poincare-gravity waves in observations, we examine ERA5 reanalysis data and study cross-correlations between the wind velocity and geopotential height of the mid-latitude stratosphere at the 50 hPa height. We find the predicted vortex and anti-vortex in the relative phase of the geopotential height and velocity at the high frequencies of the waves. By contrast, lower-frequency planetary waves are found to have trivial topology also as expected from theory. These results demonstrate a new way to understand stratospheric waves, and provide a new qualitative tool for the investigation of waves in other components of the climate system.
