In this paper we show that the topologies of most logarithmic-style P2P systems like Pastry, Tapestry or P-Grid resemble small-world graphs. Inspired by Kleinberg’s small-world model [6] we extend the model of building “routing-efficient” small-world graph ...
This book provides a major synthesis of evidence for past climate variability at the regional and continental scale across Europe and Africa. It focuses on two complementary time-scales, the Holocene (approximately the last 11,500 years) and the last glaci ...
In this paper, we study optimal economic growth programs coupled with climate change dynamics. The study is based on models derived from MERGE, a well established integrated assessment model (IAM). We discuss first the introduction in MERGE of a set of “to ...
Electrical resistance in carbon-fiber reinforced polymers has been shown experimentally to be a sensitive measure of internal damage. To quantify the dependence of electrical resistance on mechanical fiber damage at the micromechanical level, a numerical e ...
Two lidar methods of determining an atmospheric extinction coefficient profile are compared. The methods are the Klett inversion method for elastic lidar return and the log-derivative method for rotational Raman backscattered signal processing. The compari ...
The present study analyzes the uncertainty induced by the use of different state-of-the-art climate models on the prediction of climate change impacts on the runoff regimes of 11 mountainous catchments in the Swiss Alps having current glaciation rates betw ...
This study presents continued development of the Nenes and Seinfeld (2003) cloud droplet activation parameterization. First, we expanded the formulation to (1) allow for a lognormal representation of aerosol size distribution, and (2) include a size-depend ...
The present work analyzes the climate change impacts on the runoff regimes of mountainous catchments in the Swiss Alps having current glaciation rates between 0 and 50 %. The hydrological response of 11 catchments to a given climate scenario is simulated t ...
Tropospheric ozone (O3) is a key component of air pollution and an important anthropogenic greenhouse gas1. During the twentieth century, the proliferation of the internal combustion engine, rapid industrialization and land-use change led to a global-scale ...
A dynamic global vegetation model (DGVM) was used to simulate global terrestrial carbon storage and stable carbon isotope composition changes for the last 21000 years. A paleoclimate scenario was provided by interpolation of coupled AGCM/mixed-layer ocean ...
