Downscaling of Historical Wind Fields over Switzerland Using Generative Adversarial Networks

Anthony Christopher Davison, Ophélia Mireille Anna Miralles

Near-surface wind is difficult to estimate using global numerical weather and climate models, because airflow is strongly modified by underlying topography, especially that of a country such as Switzerland. In this article, we use a statistical approach ba ...

Failure and success of the spectral bias prediction for Laplace Kernel Ridge Regression: the case of low-dimensional data

Matthieu Wyart, Umberto Maria Tomasini, Antonio Sclocchi

Recently, several theories including the replica method made predictions for the generalization error of Kernel Ridge Regression. In some regimes, they predict that the method has a 'spectral bias': decomposing the true function f* on the eigenbasis of the ...

Automated identification of local contamination in remote atmospheric composition time series

Jian Wang, Julia Schmale, Andrea Baccarini, Ivo Fabio Beck, Hélène Paule Angot, Lubna Dada

A common challenge of atmospheric measurements in remote environments is to identify pollution from nearby activities that interfere with the purpose of the observations. Pollution, particularly from combustion, typically reveals itself in enhanced particl ...

Overview of the MOSAiC expedition—Atmosphere

Julia Schmale, Ivo Fabio Beck, Radiance Flore Aurore Calmer, Michael Lonardi, Hélène Paule Angot, Markus Frey, Thomas Krumpen

With the Arctic rapidly changing, the needs to observe, understand, and model the changes are essential. To support these needs, an annual cycle of observations of atmospheric properties, processes, and interactions were made while drifting with the sea ic ...

High-speed imaging of snow saltation: wind tunnel experiments using natural snow

Michael Lehning, Daniela Brito Melo, Benjamin Andreas Walter

Drifting snow is a multi-scale process. It is composed of particles rolling and sliding along the surface, particles in saltation following short ballistic trajectories in the first 10 cm above the surface and particles in suspension at higher regions of t ...

Development of a reduced model for energetic particle transport by sawteeth in tokamaks

Mario Ludovico Podesta, Francesca Maria Poli, Anna Teplukhina, Matteo Vallar, Jiangyan Yang

The sawtooth instability is known for inducing transport and loss of energetic particles (EPs), and for generating seed magnetic islands that can trigger tearing modes. Both effects degrade the overall plasma performance. Several theories and numerical mod ...

Multiphase processes in the EC-Earth model and their relevance to the atmospheric oxalate, sulfate, and iron cycles

Athanasios Nenes

Understanding how multiphase processes affect the iron-containing aerosol cycle is key to predicting ocean biogeochemistry changes and hence the feedback effects on climate. For this work, the EC-Earth Earth system model in its climate-chemistry configurat ...

Future trends in wind resources and their consistency in the Indian sub-continent

Michael Lehning, Adrien Michel, Yasmine Zakari

We use the latest Coordinated Regional Dynamical Experiment regional climate models over South Asia at 0.22 degrees grid spacing (WAS-22) under two Representative Concentration Pathways scenarios (RCP 2.6 and RCP 8.5) to evaluate their performance against ...

Are socially-aware trajectory prediction models really socially-aware?

Alexandre Massoud Alahi, Seyed Mohsen Moosavi Dezfooli, Saeed Saadatnejad, Mohammadhossein Bahari, Pedram Khorsandi

Our transportation field has recently witnessed an arms race of neural network-based trajectory predictors. While these predictors are at the core of many applications such as autonomous navigation or pedestrian flow simulations, their adversarial robustne ...

Modeling Snow Saltation: The Effect of Grain Size and Interparticle Cohesion

Varun Sharma, Michael Lehning, Daniela Brito Melo, Francesco Comola, Armin Sigmund

The surface of the Earth is snow-covered at least seasonally over large areas. This snow surface is highly dynamic, particularly under the influence of strong winds. The motion of snow particles driven by the wind not only changes the snow cover but has im ...
