On the (In)security of Peer-to-Peer Decentralized Machine Learning

Carmela González Troncoso, Mathilde Aliénor Raynal, Dario Pasquini

In this work, we carry out the first, in-depth, privacy analysis of Decentralized Learning-a collaborative machine learning framework aimed at addressing the main limitations of federated learning. We introduce a suite of novel attacks for both passive and ...

Assessing sublimation during snow transport and sublimation effects on the isotopic composition of water vapor

Armin Sigmund

Sublimation influences the water storage in snow covers and glaciers, which is important for water use and projections of the sea level rise. Yet, it is challenging to quantify sublimation for large areas or in conditions of snow transport. In-situ measure ...

Enhanced intensification of hourly rainfall extremes due to urban warming in Phoenix, Arizona

Gabriele Manoli

The main cause of flash and pluvial floods in cities is short-duration extreme rainfall events. The built environment can either intensify or weaken extreme rainfall intensity depending on the urban fabric that controls the local environmental and climatic ...

Natural slicks on Lake Geneva: From small-scale effects to large-scale formation and distribution

Mehrshad Foroughan

Low wind speeds (< 4 m/s) are ubiquitous in many water bodies, yet the physical processes occurring at the air-water interface in this range are poorly understood. A notable example is smooth patches on the water surface, known as natural slicks, formed wh ...

Wind‐Induced Hypolimnetic Upwelling Between the Multi‐Depth Basins of Lake Geneva During Winter: An Overlooked Deepwater Renewal Mechanism?

David Andrew Barry, Ulrich Lemmin, Rafael Sebastian Reiss

Combining field observations, 3D hydrodynamic modeling, and particle tracking, we investigated wind-induced interbasin exchange between the Petit Lac (PL) (depth 75 m) and Grand Lac (GL) (depth 309 m) basins of Lake Geneva in early winter. Following a stro ...

Australian Bushfires (2019-2020): Aerosol Optical Properties and Radiative Forcing

Romanos Foskinis

In the present study, we present the aerosol optical properties and radiative forcing (RF) of the tropospheric and stratospheric smoke layers, observed by the Cloud-Aerosol Lidar and Infrared Pathfinder Satellite Observation (CALIPSO) satellite, during the ...

Bistable-Type Interactions Of Complex Systems In A Fractal Paradigm Of Motion

Maria-Alexandra Paun

In the present paper the "interface" dynamics in the case of two complex systems interaction, assimilated to fractal-type mathematical objects, are analyzed. In such context, fractal bistable-type behaviors as transitions in the scale space are obtained. O ...

A Novel Method to Quantify Near-Surface Boundary-Layer Dynamics at Ultra-High Spatio-Temporal Resolution

Michael Lehning, Tobias Jonas, Dylan Stewart Reynolds, Michael Haugeneder

The lateral transport of heat above abrupt (sub-)metre-scale steps in land surface temperature influences the local surface energy balance. We present a novel experimental method to investigate the stratification and dynamics of the near-surface atmospheri ...

Exploring the relationship between urban form and land surface temperature (LST) in a semi-arid region Case study of Ben Guerir city - Morocco

Jérôme Chenal

Surface temperature is one of the critical factors used to study microclimate conditions through Land surface Temperature (LST), a widely used data source. This paper tests a classification approach using moderate spatial satellite resolution images to ext ...
