    Fast Solar Wind Driven by Parametric Decay Instability and Alfvén Wave Turbulence (2021)
    Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :
    Details
    Keywords: Earth sciences. ; Astrophysics. ; Sun. ; Earth Sciences. ; Astrophysics. ; Solar Physics.
    Description / Table of Contents: General Introduction -- 1D model with Compressional and Non-compressional Nonlinear Effects -- Onset and Suppression of Parametric Decay Instability -- 3D Simulations of the Fast Solar Wind -- Summary and Discussion.
    Abstract: This book discusses key theoretical aspects concerning the formation of the solar wind: the most essential building block in the heliosphere, in which planets orbit. To understand the influence of solar activity on planetary magnetospheres and atmospheres, we need to first understand the origin of the solar wind, which is still under debate. This book presents the outcomes of state-of-the-art numerical simulations of solar wind acceleration, including the first three-dimensional simulation of the turbulence-driven solar wind model. One of the book’s goals is to include compressional effects in the dynamics of solar wind turbulence; accordingly, it discusses parametric decay instability in detail. Several key aspects that are relevant to the Parker Solar Probe observations are also discussed. Given its scope, the book plays a key role in bridging the gap between the theory of magnetohydrodynamic turbulence and current/future in-situ observations of the solar wind. This book is based on the Ph.D. thesis by the author, which won the 2019 International Astronomical Union Division E Ph.D. prize.

    Abstract: This book includes new results of theoretical and experimental studies of various scales of the processes occurring on the earth including the lithosphere, atmosphere, and hydrosphere. Intensive development of research in these areas is due to several factors: 1) the widespread introduction of computer technology, allowing the calculation of complex phenomena; 2) the invention and improvement of a new generation of geophysical instruments such as remote observation systems based on ships, aircraft, and satellites, providing a large amount of data to objectively reflect a broad picture of the processes; and 3) the development of measurement techniques, creating opportunities for controllable and reproducible laboratory data acquisition for generation of new ideas and concepts. Their recent developments have facilitated our research and understanding of these academic fields. The book enriches the understanding of the geophysical processes taking place in various environments (lithosphere, hydrosphere, and atmosphere), including the anthropogenic one, and it further contributes to their development. This book is a valuable resource for specialists working in the oil, gas, and engineering industry to improve their understandings of the field.

    Ecological Risks of Emerging Pollutants in Urbanizing Regions (2023)
    Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :
    Details
    Keywords: Physical geography. ; Environmental management. ; Environmental health. ; Environment. ; Earth System Sciences. ; Environmental Management. ; Environmental Health. ; Environmental Sciences. ; Environmental Sciences.
    Description / Table of Contents: Chapter 1. Urbanization and emissions of pollutants -- Chapter 2. Spatial distribution of emerging pollutants in multimedia -- Chapter 3. Source identification and emission estimation of emerging pollutants -- Chapter 4. Multimedia modeling and simulation of contaminants transportation and fate -- Chapter 5. Exposure pathways and human risks of emerging pollutants -- Chapter 6. Ecological risks of emerging pollutants: methodology and applications -- Chapter 7. Conclusion and perspectives.
    Abstract: This book characterizes the major pollution patterns of emerging contaminants, such as sources, emission effluents, temporal and spatial distributions, multi-media transportation and transformation processes, exposure pathways to ecosystems and humans, and ecological risks. Based on this, it establishes an urbanizing region management concept and highlights how urbanization and its regional ecology have evolved into a more integrated vision. It also decouples the relations between urbanization and emissions of emerging pollutants that are framed within a broad socio-ecological context considering institutions, policies, and governance. All the theory, methods, and case studies have been taken from the authors’ publications, which have undergone rigorous international peer review. The book presents the spatial distribution, pathways, and flow diagrams of the pollutants as well as the interactions between urbanization and regional pollution and includes detailed figures and pictures. It also investigates ecological risk characterization and expression using maps based on geographic information systems to illustrate the general profile and the spatial variation of risks. The book is a valuable resource for postgraduates, researchers, academics, environmental NGOs, and regional managers such as urban planners, environmental agency staff, legal regulators, and decision makers. Bridging the gap between environmental science and policy, it offers interdisciplinary theory, approaches, and case studies that facilitate applications of frontier science in ecology and environmental science to regional social and economic development.

    Global Seismicity Dynamics and Data-Driven Science : Seismicity Modelling by Big Data Analytics (2021)
    Singapore :Springer Nature Singapore :
    Details
    Keywords: Geophysics. ; Geography Mathematics. ; Natural disasters. ; Big data. ; Geophysics. ; Mathematics of Planet Earth. ; Natural Hazards. ; Big Data.
    Description / Table of Contents: - Introduction -- Nature of Earthquakes in the Solid Earth -- Global Seismicity of the Solid Earth -- Data – Driven Sciences for Geosciences -- Data-Driven Science of Seismicity -- Down Scaling Seismicity of Japanese Regions -- Correlated Seismicity of the Northern California Region -- Model of Seismicity Dynamics from Data-Driven Science -- Seismicity Dynamics Model of Global Earth and Japanese Island Region -- Predictive Modeling of Global and Regional Seismicity Rates -- Future Problems of Prediction of Giant Plate Boundary Earthquakes -- Application of Recurrent Neural Network (RNN) Modeling for Global Seismicity Dynamics -- Comments on Databases and Software Used in This Book.
    Abstract: The recent explosion of global and regional seismicity data in the world requires new methods of investigation of microseismicity and development of their modelling to understand the nature of whole earth mechanics. In this book, the author proposes a powerful tool to reveal the characteristic features of global and regional microseismicity big data accumulated in the databases of the world. The method proposed in this monograph is based on (1) transformation of stored big data to seismicity density data archives, (2) linear transformation of microseismicity density data matrixes to correlated seismicity matrixes by means of the singular value decomposition method, (3) time series analyses of globally and regionally correlated seismicity rates, and (4) the minimal non-linear equations approximation of their correlated seismicity rate dynamics. Minimal non-linear modelling is the manifestation for strongly correlated seismicity time series controlled by Langevin-type stochastic dynamic equations involving deterministic terms and random Gaussian noises. A deterministic term is composed minimally with correlated seismicity rate vectors of a linear term and of a term with a third exponent. Thus, the dynamics of correlated seismicity in the world contains linearly changing stable nodes and rapid transitions between them with transient states. This book contains discussions of future possibilities of stochastic extrapolations of global and regional seismicity in order to reduce earthquake disasters worldwide. The dataset files are available online and can be downloaded at springer.com.
