Processes of Stratification Breakdown and Restratification in Antarctic Coastal Polynyas by Xu, Yilang

“…Even though ice shelf basal meltwater can ascend to the polynya surface, much of it is mixed over the upper 100–200 m and does not have a significant contribution to the near-surface restratification. The surface runoff from the ice shelf surface melt could potentially contribute significantly to the near-surface restratification, but its magnitude is less constrained with high uncertainty. …”

Distributed execution of workflow by Khademi Hedayat, Maryam

“…The main reasons which led us to this selection are: (i) there is few existing work on partitioning workflow, specially as a means of accelerating workflow execution; (ii) several systems have been developed using three main enactment models (i.e., centralized, hierarchical, and distributed models), but most of them focus on centralized execution control while the existing hierarchical and distributed models still have problems such as high overhead in communication amongst the distributed parties; and (iii) data movement mechanisms are divided into: centralized, mediated, and peer-to-peer models. …”

Climate projections for Himalaya–Tibetan Highland by Bhuyan, Debi P., Salunke, Popat, Chadha, Meera

“…The fidelity of 47 CMIP6 climate models in simulating the monsoon (June to August) over Himalaya–Tibetan Highland (HTH) is examined for the historical period (1975-2014) and 8 best performing models have been identified. It is found that the multi-model mean of 47 CMIP6 models (MMM) still exhibits systematic cold and wet biases for Tas and precipitation, respectively during the historical period. …”
