Global emergent responses of stream microbial metabolism to glacier shrinkage

Tom Ian Battin, Hannes Markus Peter, Massimo Bourquin, Nicola Deluigi, Tyler Joe Kohler, Michail Styllas

Most cryospheric ecosystems are energy limited. How their energetics will respond to climate change remains largely unknown. This is particularly true for glacier-fed streams, which interface with the cryosphere and initiate some of Earth's largest river s ...

How Forward-Scattering Snow and Terrain Change the Alpine Radiation Balance With Application to Solar Panels

Michael Lehning, Annelen Kahl

Rough terrain in mid- and high latitudes is often covered with highly reflective snow, giving rise to a very complex transfer of incident sunlight. In order to simplify the radiative transfer in weather and climate models, snow is generally treated as an i ...

Considerations of the Impacts of Cell-Specific Growth and Production Rate on Clone Selection-A Simulation Study

Florian Maria Wurm

For the manufacturing of complex biopharmaceuticals using bioreactors with cultivated mammalian cells, high product concentration is an important objective. The phenotype of the cells in a reactor plays an important role. Are clonal cell populations showin ...

Generalization Error Bounds Via Rényi-, f-Divergences and Maximal Leakage

Michael Christoph Gastpar, Amedeo Roberto Esposito, Ibrahim Issa

In this work, the probability of an event under some joint distribution is bounded by measuring it with the product of the marginals instead (which is typically easier to analyze) together with a measure of the dependence between the two random variables. ...

Ambiguous labor market reforms

Charles Cosme Henri Dennery

When labour unions use first-best price discrimination, they can extract a wage above the marginal product of labour: employment is above the firm's own optimum - this is featherbedding or overmanning, and such rigidities can increase employment. While lab ...

Cost and benefits of climate change in Switzerland

Philippe Thalmann, Marc Vielle, Frank Vöhringer, Boris Thurm, Dario Stocker, Wolfgang Knoke, Anita Frehner

Understanding the economic magnitude of climate change impacts is a prerequisite for developing adequate adaptation strategies. In Switzerland, despite new climate scenarios and impact studies, only few impacts have been monetized. Our objective is to asse ...

An integrator-differentiator TIA using a multi-element pseudo-resistor in its DC servo loop for enhanced noise performance

Georg Fantner, Jens Anders

In this paper, we present an integrator-differentiator transimpedance amplifier (TIA) featuring a multielement pseudo-resistor (MEPR) in the DC feedback path for improved noise performance in the presence of non-zero DC input currents. The presented protot ...

Efficient Learning from Comparisons

Lucas Maystre

Humans are comparison machines: comparing and choosing an item among a set of alternatives (such as objects or concepts) is arguably one of the most natural ways for us to express our preferences and opinions. In many applications, the analysis of data con ...

Accounting for near-wellbore fracture behavior to unlock the potential of unconventional gas wells

Brice Tanguy Alphonse Lecampion

Despite ongoing engineering efforts, unconventional horizontal gas wells completed with the multi-stage hydraulic fracturing technique are not yet producing to their full potential, as a meaningful proportion of clusters are producing marginally - if at al ...
