A glacier-ocean interaction model for tsunami genesis due to iceberg calving

Johan Alexandre Philippe Gaume

Dynamic glacier fracture and the subsequent generation and propagation of iceberg-induced tsunamis are reproduced using a unified numerical glacier-ocean model, in line with observations at the Eqip Sermia glacier in Greenland, as well as laboratory experi ...

Hydro-mechanical behaviour of a sandy silt from a river embankment

Alessio Ferrari

The paper presents the results of an experimental campaign aimed at characterizing the hydro mechanical behaviour of a sandy silt from a river embankment Due to continuous river level fluctuations and changing climatic and environmental conditions, flood e ...

Estuarine tidal response to sea level rise: The significance of entrance restriction

Giovanni De Cesare

Estuarine environments, as dynamic low-lying transition zones between rivers and the open sea, are vulnerable to sea level rise (SLR). To evaluate the potential impacts of SLR on estuarine responses, it is necessary to examine the altered tidal dynamics, i ...

Decoding Cognitive States under Varying Difficulty Levels

Ping-Keng Jao

Understanding cognitive states of human under different difficulty levels is useful in improving human-human and human-machine interactions. For example, a crucial factor in designing games is maintaining the engagement of players. An ideal scenario would ...

Version 1 of a sea ice module for the physics-based, detailed, multi-layer SNOWPACK model

Michael Lehning, Katherine Colby Leonard, Nander Wever

Sea ice is an important component of the global climate system. The presence of a snowpack covering sea ice can strongly modify the thermodynamic behavior of the sea ice, due to the low thermal conductivity and high albedo of snow. The snowpack can be stra ...

A Covariance Formula For Topological Events Of Smooth Gaussian Fields

Alejandro Rivera

We derive a covariance formula for the class of 'topological events' of smooth Gaussian fields on manifolds; these are events that depend only on the topology of the level sets of the field, for example, (i) crossing events for level or excursion sets, (ii ...

Hydropower Plants Frequency Regulation Depending on Upper Reservoir Water Level

Christophe Nicolet, Philippe Allenbach

This paper presents a novel method of hydro power plant operation, based on the control of the injectors’ or wicked gates opening time as a function of the upper reservoir level. In this way, a faster power injection, depending on the current water level o ...
