    Simulating Linear Kinematic Features in Viscous‐Plastic Sea Ice Models on Quadrilateral and Triangular Grids With Different Variable Staggering (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-04-04
    Description: Observations in polar regions show that sea ice deformations are often narrow linear features. These long bands of deformations are referred to as Linear Kinematic Features (LKFs). Viscous‐plastic sea ice models have the capability to simulate LKFs and more generally sea ice deformations. Moreover, viscous‐plastic models simulate a larger number and more refined LKFs as the spatial resolution is increased. Besides grid spacing, other aspects of a numerical implementation, such as the placement of velocities and the associated degrees of freedom, may impact the formation of simulated LKFs. To explore these effects this study compares numerical solutions of sea ice models with different velocity staggering in a benchmark problem. Discretizations based on A‐,B‐, and C‐grid systems on quadrilateral meshes have similar resolution properties as an approximation with an A‐grid staggering on triangular grids (with the same total number of vertices). CD‐grid approximations with a given grid spacing have properties, specifically the number and length of simulated LKFs, that are qualitatively similar to approximations on conventional Arakawa A‐grid, B‐grid, and C‐grid approaches with half the grid spacing or less, making the CD‐discretization more efficient with respect to grid resolution. One reason for this behavior is the fact that the CD‐grid approach has a higher number of degrees of freedom to discretize the velocity field. The higher effective resolution of the CD‐discretization makes it an attractive alternative to conventional discretizations.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Sea ice in the Arctic and Antarctic Oceans plays an important role in the exchange of heat and freshwater between the atmosphere and the ocean and hence in the climate in general. Satellite observations of polar regions show that the ice drift sometimes produces long features that are either cracks (leads) and zones of thicker sea ice (pressure ridges). This phenomenon is called deformation. It is mathematically described by the non‐uniform way in which the ice moves. For numerical models of sea ice motion it is difficult to represent this deformation accurately. Details of the numerics may affect the way these models simulate leads and ridges, their number and length. Specifically, we find by comparing different numerical models, that the way the model variables are ordered on a computational grid to solve the mathematical equations of sea ice motion has an effect of how many deformation features can be represented on a grid with a given spacing between grid points. A new discretization (ordering of model variables) turns out to resolve more details of the approximated field than traditional methods.
    Description: Key Points: The placement of the sea ice velocity has a mayor influence on the number of simulated linear kinematic features (LKFs). The CD‐grid resolves twice as many LKFs compared to A, B, C‐grids. A, B, C‐grids on quadrilateral meshes resolve a similar number of LKFs as A‐grids on triangular meshes (with the same total number of nodes).

    A Lagrangian Perspective on Stable Water Isotopes During the West African Monsoon (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-04-01
    Description: We present a Lagrangian framework for identifying mechanisms that control the isotopic composition of mid‐tropospheric water vapor in the Sahel region during the West African Monsoon 2016. In this region mixing between contrasting air masses, strong convective activity, as well as surface and rain evaporation lead to high variability in the distribution of stable water isotopologues. Using backward trajectories based on high‐resolution isotope‐enabled model data, we obtain information not only about the source regions of Sahelian air masses, but also about the evolution of H2O and its isotopologue HDO (expressed as δD) along the pathways of individual air parcels. We sort the full trajectory ensemble into groups with similar transport pathways and hydro‐meteorological properties, such as precipitation and relative humidity, and investigate the evolution of the corresponding paired {H2O, δD} distributions. The use of idealized process curves in the {H2O, δD} phase space allows us to attribute isotopic changes to contributions from (a) air mass mixing, (b) Rayleigh condensation during convection, and (c) microphysical processes depleting the vapor beyond the Rayleigh prediction, i.e., partial rain evaporation in unsaturated and isotopic equilibration in saturated conditions. Different combinations of these processes along the trajectory ensembles are found to determine the final isotopic composition in the Sahelian troposphere during the monsoon. The presented Lagrangian framework is a powerful tool for interpreting tropospheric water vapor distributions. In the future, it will be applied to satellite observations of {H2O, δD} over Africa and other regions in order to better quantify characteristics of the hydrological cycle.
    Description: Key Points: New Lagrangian framework to attribute variability in {H2O, δD} distributions to air mass mixing and phase changes of water. Application to West African Monsoon season 2016 shows characteristic mixing and precipitation effects along trajectories. New framework can be used for the interpretation of satellite and in‐situ observations, and for model validation in future work.

    Spatial variability in river bed porosity determined by nuclear density gauging: A case study from a French gravel‐bed river (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-04-01
    Description: Porosity is one of the key properties of fluvial sediments. It is defined as the ratio of pore volume to total volume. In river science, porosity is often assumed to be spatially constant, which might be a gross simplification of reality. Ignoring the spatial variations in porosity can cause errors in morphological, ecological, hydrological, hydrogeological and sedimentological applications. Although detailed information about spatial porosity variations can be obtained from porosity measurements at field sites, such information has never been collected where these variations might be important. In this study, field porosity measurements were carried out to quantify the magnitude of the spatial porosity variation for four different sedimentological environments of a braided river: a confluence, a tributary delta, a braid bar and a secondary channel. A nuclear density gauge was used for the measurement of porosity. The nuclear density gauge proved to be a time‐saving and labour‐saving technique that produces accurate porosity values with a root mean square error of 0.03. The four sedimentological environments showed significant differences in porosity, with mean porosity being lower for confluence and bar than for delta and secondary channel. Semi‐variogram analysis showed the absence of any spatial correlation in porosity for distances beyond 4 m. This shows that distance cannot be used as a parameter for porosity extrapolation in a fluvial system unless the extrapolation distance is less than 4 m. At least eight measurements of porosity are required to obtain a reliable estimate of mean porosity in a sedimentary environment, i.e. with uncertainty 〈0.03. Although grain size characteristics were found to have a significant impact on porosity, the relationships between these parameters and porosity were not very strong in this study. The unique porosity dataset, presented in this article, provides a valuable source of information for researchers and river managers.

    Observed and Simulated Variability of Droplet Spectral Dispersion in Convective Clouds Over the Amazon (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-30
    Description: In this study, the variability of the spectral dispersion of droplet size distributions (DSDs) in convective clouds is investigated. Analyses are based on aircraft measurements of growing cumuli near the Amazon basin, and on numerical simulations of an idealized ice‐free cumulus. In cleaner clouds, the relative dispersion ϵ, defined as the ratio of the standard deviation to the mean value of the droplet diameter, is negatively correlated with the ratio of the cloud water content (qc) to the adiabatic liquid water content (qa), while no strong correlation between ϵ and qc/qa is seen in polluted clouds. Bin microphysics numerical simulations suggest that these contrasting behaviors are associated with the effect of collision‐coalescence in cleaner clouds, and secondary droplet activation in polluted clouds, in addition to the turbulent mixing of parcels that experienced different paths within the cloud. Collision‐coalescence simultaneously broadens the DSDs and decreases qc, explaining the inverse relationship between ϵ and qc/qa in cleaner clouds. Secondary droplet activation broadens the DSDs but has little direct impact on qc. The combination of a rather modest DSD broadening due to weak collision‐coalescence with enhanced droplet activation in both diluted and highly undiluted cloud regions may contribute to maintain a relatively uniform ϵ within polluted clouds. These findings can be useful for parameterizing the shape parameter (μ) of gamma DSDs in bulk microphysics cloud‐resolving models. It is shown that emulating the observed μ−qc/qa relationship improves the estimation of the collision‐coalescence rate in bulk microphysics simulations compared to the bin simulations.
    Description: Key Points: Droplet size distribution patterns observed in warm cumuli reflect the roles of collision‐coalescence, secondary activation, and mixing. The intra‐cloud distribution of droplet spectral dispersion varies with aerosol loading. Emulating the observed shape‐parameter improves bulk estimations of collision‐coalescence in models.

    Absorbing aerosol decreases cloud cover in cloud‐resolving simulations over Germany (2021)
    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd | Chichester, UK
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-31
    Description: Aerosol can affect clouds in various ways. Beside the microphysical impact of aerosol particles on cloud formation, the interference of aerosol with atmospheric radiation leads to changes in local heating, surface fluxes and thus mesoscale circulations, all of which may also modify clouds. Rather little is known about these so‐called semi‐direct effects in realistic settings – a reason why this study investigates the impact of absorbing aerosol particles on cloud and radiation fields over Germany. Using advanced high‐resolution simulations with grid spacings of 312 and 625 m, numerical experiments with different aerosol optical properties are contrasted using purely scattering aerosol as a control case and realistic absorbing aerosol as a perturbation. The combined effect of surface dimming and atmospheric heating induces positive temperature and negative moisture anomalies between 800 and 900 hPa, impacting low‐level cloud formation. Decreased relative humidity as well as increased atmospheric stability below clouds lead to a reduction of low‐level cloud cover, liquid water path and precipitation. It is further found that direct and semi‐direct effects of absorbing aerosol forcing have similar magnitudes and contribute equally to a reduction of net radiation at the top of the atmosphere.
    Description: Atmospheric aerosol particles can absorb solar radiation, altering the thermal structure of the atmosphere and surface fluxes. Using advanced high‐resolution simulations over Germany with grid spacings of 312 and 625 m, we find that boundary‐layer absorbing aerosol reduces low‐level cloud cover, liquid water path and precipitation. Direct and semi‐direct effects have similar magnitudes and contribute equally to a positive absorbing aerosol forcing.

    Tracking Downstream Variability in Large Grain‐Size Distributions in the South‐Central Andes (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-31
    Description: Mixed sand‐ and gravel‐bed rivers record erosion, transport, and fining signals in their bedload size distributions. Thus, grain‐size data are imperative for studying these processes. However, collecting hundreds to thousands of pebble measurements in steep and dynamic high‐mountain river settings remains challenging. Using the recently published digital grain‐sizing algorithm PebbleCounts, we were able to survey seven large (≥ 1,000 m2) channel cross‐sections and measure thousands to tens‐of‐thousands of grains per survey along a 100‐km stretch of the trunk stream of the Toro Basin in Northwest Argentina. The study region traverses a steep topographic and environmental gradient on the eastern margin of the Central Andean Plateau. Careful counting and validation allows us to identify measurement errors and constrain percentile uncertainties using large sample sizes. In the coarse ≥2.5 cm fraction of bedload, only the uppermost size percentiles (≥95th) vary significantly downstream, whereas the 50th and 84th percentiles show less variability. We note a relation between increases in these upper percentiles and along‐channel junctions with large, steep tributaries. This signal is strongly influenced by lithology and geologic structures, and mixed with local hillslope input. In steep catchments like the Toro Basin, we suggest nonlinear relationships between geomorphic metrics and grain size, whereby the steepest parts of the landscape exert primary control on the upper grain‐size percentiles. Thus, average or median metrics that do not apply weights or thresholds to steeper topography may be less predictive of grain‐size distributions in such settings.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Rock fragments on hillsides are transported to rivers, eventually becoming pebbles, sand, and mud as they are carried downstream by flowing water. The initial size of the pebbles, the way the size changes downstream, and the overprinting of the sizes with new pebbles from other hills and tributaries all form a complex process that can be difficult to disentangle. Yet studying the size of the pebbles at a given stream location or in a sedimentary deposit can provide insights into the conditions of their transport in terms of local upstream patterns of erosion, tectonics, and climate. We show that just looking at the size of the large pebbles on a riverbed can be used to infer the sources of material, but, since there are fewer large pebbles, they require more measurements to quantify. This necessitates new methods for pebble measurement using modern image‐processing tools.
    Description: Key Points: Complex grain‐size distributions in dynamic mountain rivers can be computed via thousands of measurements from PebbleCounts. Many measurements allow robust estimation of higher percentiles and we observe the most significant changes in the ≥95th percentile. Downstream grain‐size variation is nonlinearly related to variations in topographic steepness and lithology.

    Targeted covariance inflation for 3D‐volume radar reflectivity assimilation with the LETKF (2021)
    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. | Chichester, UK
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-31
    Description: The local ensemble transform Kalman filter (LETKF) suggested by Hunt et al., 2007 is a very popular method for ensemble data assimilation. It is the operational method for convective‐scale data assimilation at Deutscher Wetterdienst (DWD). At DWD, based on the LETKF, three‐dimensional volume radar observations are assimilated operationally for the operational ICON‐D2. However, one major challenge for the LETKF is the situation where observations show precipitation (reflectivity) whereas all ensemble members do not show such reflectivity at a given point in space. In this case, there is no sensitivity of the LETKF with respect to the observations, and the analysis increment based on the observed reflectivity is zero. The goal of this work is to develop a targeted covariance inflation (TCI) for the assimilation of 3D‐volume radar data based on the LETKF, adding artificial sensitivity and making the LETKF react properly to the radar observations. The basic idea of the TCI is to employ an additive covariance inflation as entrance point for the LETKF. Here, we construct perturbations to the simulated observation which are used by the core LETKF assimilation step. The perturbations are constructed such that they exhibit a correlation between humidity and reflectivity. This leads to a change in humidity in such a way that precipitation is more likely to occur. We describe and demonstrate the theoretical basis of the method. We then present a case study where targeted covariance inflation leads to a clear improvement of the LETKF and precipitation forecast. All examples are based on the German radar network and the ICON‐D2 model over Central Europe.

    Changes in the Tropical Lapse Rate due to Entrainment and Their Impact on Climate Sensitivity (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-31
    Description: The tropical temperature in the free troposphere deviates from a theoretical moist‐adiabat. The overall deviations are attributed to the entrainment of dry surrounding air. The deviations gradually approach zero in the upper troposphere, which we explain with a buoyancy‐sorting mechanism: the height to which individual convective parcels rise depends on parcel buoyancy, which is closely tied to the impact of entrainment during ascent. In higher altitudes, the temperature is increasingly controlled by the convective parcels that are warmer and more buoyant because of weaker entrainment effects. We represent such temperature deviations from moist‐adiabats in a clear‐sky one‐dimensional radiative‐convective equilibrium model. Compared with a moist‐adiabatic adjustment, having the entrainment‐induced temperature deviations lead to higher clear‐sky climate sensitivity. As the impact of entrainment depends on the saturation deficit, which increases with warming, our model predicts even more amplified surface warming from entrainment in a warmer climate.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: The tropical temperature structure is determined by regions with deep convection, which is believed to be moist‐adiabatic. However, both models and observations show that the temperature deviates from moist‐adiabats. This is because convective parcels often mix with dry environmental air during ascent, pushing the temperature away from the moist‐adiabatic structure. More importantly, the tropical temperature is not dominated by one or a few strongest convective plumes, but rather controlled by the combined effect of many convective plumes of different strengths and depths. Therefore, the tropical temperature structure reflects the composition of convection happening at different values of boundary‐layer energy and mixing processes of variable efficiency with the environment. Using an idealized model, we find that representing such a deviation in the temperature structure increases the surface warming, because the resulting temperature lapse rate (LR) is more similar to a constant LR, showing less temperature increases higher than a moist‐adiabatic LR. This effect is likely amplified in a warmer climate due to this mixing process becoming more efficient in pushing the temperature further away from moist‐adiabats.
    Description: Key Points: The tropical temperature profile in the free troposphere deviates from that following a moist‐adiabatic lapse rate (LR). The deviations from the moist‐adiabatic LR can be explained by entrainment with a buoyancy‐sorting mechanism. The temperature deviations from moist‐adiabats increase climate sensitivity.

    Intercalibration of the Plasma Density Measurements in Earth's Topside Ionosphere (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-25
    Description: Over the last 20 years, a large number of instruments have provided plasma density measurements in Earth's topside ionosphere. To utilize all of the collected observations for empirical modeling, it is necessary to ensure that they do not exhibit systematic differences and are adjusted to the same reference frame. In this study, we compare satellite plasma density observations from Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE), Constellation Observing System for Meteorology, Ionosphere, and Climate (COSMIC), CHAllenging Minisatellite Payload (CHAMP), Swarm, and Communications/Navigation Outage Forecasting System (C/NOFS) missions. Electron densities retrieved from GRACE K‐Band Ranging (KBR) system, previously shown to be in excellent agreement with incoherent scatter radar (ISR) measurements, are used as a reference. We find that COSMIC radio occultation (RO) densities are highly consistent with GRACE‐KBR observations showing a mean relative difference of 〈2%, and therefore no calibration factors between them are necessary. We utilize the outstanding three‐dimensional coverage of the topside ionosphere by the COSMIC mission to perform conjunction analysis with in situ density observations from CHAMP, C/NOFS, and Swarm missions. CHAMP measurements are lower than COSMIC by ∼11%. Swarm densities are generally lower at daytime and higher at nighttime compared to COSMIC. C/NOFS ion densities agree well with COSMIC, with a relative bias of ∼7%. The resulting cross‐calibration factors, derived from the probability distribution functions, help to eliminate the systematic leveling differences between the data sets, and allow using these data jointly in a large number of ionospheric applications.
    Description: Key Points: A systematic comparison of the plasma density data from CHAMP, C/NOFS, GRACE, COSMIC, and Swarm missions is performed. Electron densities retrieved from COSMIC‐RO agree well with GRACE‐KBR observations showing a relative difference of less than 2%. Intercalibration factors, allowing to eliminate the systematic offsets between the considered data sets, are presented.

    Paleoclimate Evolution on Titan After Episodic Massive Methane Outgassing Simulated by a Global Climate Model (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-25
    Description: Titan's paleoclimate after the onset of the putative last major methane outgassing event 700 Myr ago is simulated by a global climate model. If the atmosphere was methane‐depleted prior to outgassing, outgassed methane initially causes warming due to increased greenhouse effect. Further outgassing leads to methane snowfall, which in turn cools the troposphere and surface by an ice‐albedo feedback and thereby initiates a lengthy ice age. Formation of ice sheets begins in the polar region, but with increasing methane inventory the entire globe is eventually covered by surface methane frost as thick as 100 m, with local accumulation on elevated terrains. Among various time‐dependent input parameters the methane inventory by far exerts the greatest control over the climate evolution. As Titan's climate transitions from a dry state via a partially ice‐covered state to a globally ice‐covered state, the circulation and precipitation pattern change profoundly and the tropospheric temperature further decreases. Globally ice‐covered snowball Titan is characterized by weak meridional circulation, weak seasonality and widespread snowfall. Frost ablation begins after the end of outgassing due to photochemical destruction of atmospheric methane. It is conceivable that Titan's polar seas resulted from melting of the polar caps within the past 10 Myr and subsequent drainage to the polar basins. Surface methane frost could only melt when the frost retreated to the polar region, which led to global warming by lowering of the surface albedo at low latitudes and increased greenhouse effect.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Saturn's moon Titan may have experienced long periods of cold climate in the past when the nitrogen atmosphere contained no methane unlike the present atmosphere. We simulated how Titan's climate may have changed when large amounts of methane were outgassed into such a cold atmosphere as indicated by models of Titan's evolution. The atmosphere can hold a certain amount of methane but the vast majority of outgassed methane condenses out as snow and is deposited on the surface. Bright methane snow on the surface keeps the surface cold and thereby prevents efficient greenhouse warming. Initially, surface methane frost is confined to high latitudes, but eventually the entire globe will be ice‐covered under the assumed total amount of outgassed methane. The seasonal and global pattern of atmospheric circulation and snowfall strongly depend on the degree of frost coverage. The surface frost sublimes away long after outgassing has ceased because methane is destroyed in the atmosphere by photochemistry. Eventually, the polar caps melt, leaving behind the observed polar seas.
    Description: Key Points: Massive methane outgassing into Titan's atmosphere should have caused global ice sheets if the atmosphere was previously depleted in methane. Climate of methane snowball Titan is characterized by weak circulation, low temperature, weak seasonality and widespread snowfall. Melting polar caps in geologically recent past may have resulted in polar seas.

    Life Cycle of Shallow Marine Cumulus Clouds From Geostationary Satellite Observations (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-25
    Description: An analysis of the life cycle of shallow marine cumulus clouds is presented based on geostationary observations by the Spinning Enhanced Visible and InfraRed Imager aboard Meteosat Second Generation (MSG‐SEVIRI). Trajectories of about 250,000 individual shallow marine cumulus clouds have been derived by applying Particle Image Velocimetry to the Satellite Application Facility on Climate Monitoring CLoud property dAtAset using SEVIRI for a region in the trade wind zone centered around the Canary Islands in August 2015. The temporal evolution of the physical properties of these clouds allows to characterize cloud development and to infer the distribution of cloud life time and cloud extent. In the derived data set, the life time distribution follows a double power law with most clouds existing on a time scale of tens of minutes. The cloud physical properties, available during daytime, are analyzed along the cloud tracks. Relative time series of cloud extent, cloud water path, cloud droplet effective radius at cloud top, cloud optical thickness, and cloud droplet number concentration for clouds in two temporal ranges reveal conditions that can be attributed to long‐lasting clouds. Clouds of a certain horizontal extent and cloud top height as well as cloud droplet radius show longer life times if they are optically more dense, i.e., have a higher droplet number concentration. Furthermore, the investigation of the content of liquid cloud water regarding cloud life time and cloud extent shows that small short‐living clouds significantly contribute to cloud radiative effects.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: A comprehensive analysis of the life cycle of shallow marine cumulus clouds is presented based on measurements of a specialized instrument, called SEVIRI, aboard Meteosat's Second Generation geostationary meteorological satellite. A new method is applied to derive the physic‐property temporal evolution of approximately 250,000 individual clouds in a region around the Canary Islands during August 2015. Several constraints are applied to infer the relationship between cloud life time and various cloud parameters. The study reveals that cloud life time is related to the optical thickness when constrained by horizontal extent, cloud top height, and droplet radius. The analysis further shows that small short‐living clouds significantly contribute to cloud radiative effects.
    Description: Key Points: The life cycle of shallow marine cumulus clouds is inferred using a passive space‐based geostationary instrument. Life cycle is quantified by top temperature/height, cloud extent, cloud water path, optical thickness, and droplet radius/number concentration. Cumulus clouds of a certain horizontal extent, cloud top height as well as droplet radius live longer if they are optically denser.

    Scale Factors of the Thermospheric Density: A Comparison of Satellite Laser Ranging and Accelerometer Solutions (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-25
    Description: A major problem in the precise orbit determination (POD) of satellites at altitudes below 1,000 km is the modeling of the aerodynamic drag which mainly depends on the thermospheric density and causes the largest non‐gravitational acceleration. Typically, empirical thermosphere models are used to calculate density values at satellite positions but current thermosphere models cannot provide the required accuracy. Thus, unaccounted variations in the thermospheric density may lead to significantly incorrect satellite positions. For the first time, we bring together thermospheric density corrections for the NRLMSISE‐00 model in terms of scale factors with a temporal resolution of 12 hr derived from satellite laser ranging (SLR) and accelerometer measurements. Whereas, the latter are in situ information given along the satellite orbit, SLR results have to be interpreted as mean values along the orbit within the underlying time interval. From their comparison, we notice a rather similar behavior with correlations of up to 80% and more depending on altitude. During high solar activity, scale factors vary around 30% at low solar activity and up to 70% at high solar activity from the value one. In addition, we found the scaled thermospheric density decreasing stronger as the modeled density of NRLMSISE‐00. To check the reliability of the SLR‐derived scale factors, we compare the POD result of two different software packages, namely DOGS‐OC from DGFI‐TUM and GROOPS from IGG Bonn. Furthermore, a validation of our estimated scale factors with respect to an external data set proofs the high quality of the obtained results.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Variations in the density of the thermosphere must be taken into account when modeling and predicting the motion of satellites in the near‐Earth environment. Typically, thermospheric densities at the position of satellites are provided by models, but their accuracy is limited. Due to the sensitivity of satellites orbiting the Earth in the altitude range of the thermosphere, they can be used to derive information about the thermospheric density. In this study, we compare for the first time thermospheric density corrections in terms of scale factors for the NRLMSISE‐00 model with a temporal resolution of 12 hr derived from two geodetic measurement techniques, namely satellite laser ranging (SLR) and accelerometry. Our results demonstrate that both measurement techniques can be used to derive comparable scale factors of the thermospheric density, which vary around the desired value one. This indicates to which extent the NRLMSISE‐00 model differs from the observed thermospheric density. On average, during high solar activity, the model underestimates the thermospheric density and can be scaled up using the estimated scale factors. We additionally discuss our estimated scale factors with respect to an external data set. Furthermore, we validate the approach of deriving scale factors from SLR measurements by using two independent software packages.
    Description: Key Points: For the first time, we compare scale factors of the thermospheric density derived from satellite laser ranging (SLR) and accelerometer measurements. The estimated scale factors vary by up to 30% at low solar activity and up to 70% at high solar activity from the desired value 1. Correlations of 0.7–0.8 are obtained between the estimated scale factors from SLR and accelerometer measurements depending on the height.

    Temperatures Near the Lunar Poles and Their Correlation With Hydrogen Predicted by LEND (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-24
    Description: The lunar polar regions offer permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) representing the only regions which are cold enough for water ice to accumulate on the surface. The Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector (LEND) aboard the Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter (LRO) has mapped the polar regions for their hydrogen abundance which possibly resides there in the form of water ice. Neutron suppression regions (NSRs) are regions of excessive hydrogen concentrations and were previously identified using LEND data. At each pole, we applied thermal modeling to three NSRs and one unclassified region to evaluate the correlation between hydrogen concentrations and temperatures. Our thermal model delivers temperature estimates for the surface and for 29 layers in the sub‐surface down to 2 m depth. We compared our temperature maps at each layer to LEND neutron suppression maps to reveal the range of depths at which both maps correlate best. As anticipated, we find the three south polar NSRs which are coincident with PSRs in agreement with respective (near)‐surface temperatures that support the accumulation of water ice. Water ice is suspected to be present in the upper ≈19 cm layer of regolith. The three north polar NSRs however lie in non‐PSR areas and are counter‐intuitive as such that most surfaces reach temperatures that are too high for water ice to exist. However, we find that temperatures are cold enough in the shallow sub‐surface and suggest water ice to be present at depths down to ≈35–65 cm. Additionally we find ideal conditions for ice pumping into the sub‐surface at the north polar NSRs. The reported depths are observable by LEND and can, at least in part, explain the existence and shape of the observed hydrogen signal. Although we can substantiate the anticipated correlation between hydrogen abundance and temperature the converse argument cannot be made.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: The lunar poles have quite unique illumination conditions. For instance, the Sun never shines on some crater floors. As a consequence, the floors of those craters are very cold and dark. Here, water ice can accumulate on the surface and can be preserved for long periods of time. One of the instruments mounted on the Moon‐orbiting satellite Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter is capable of detecting areas where hydrogen is located, which is assumed to be present in the form of water ice. For instance, the instrument detected several areas at the lunar poles where a lot more water ice is found than at other locations. For these special locations, we calculated the temperatures at the surface and near sub‐surface to see whether they are indeed cold enough for water to freeze. At some of these locations, surface temperatures turn out to be too warm. However, we found that at these warm surfaces where no water ice can exist it can be transported into the sub‐surface and survive there. This mechanism is referred to as ice pumping. In summary, we could show that temperatures at all these special locations are usually cold enough for water ice, either right at the surface or within the first meter of soil.
    Description: Key Points: Some neutron suppression regions (NSRs) form from surface ice deposits while others may form through ice pumping in the sub‐surface. NSRs identified by Lunar Exploration Neutron Detector correlate well with low surface temperatures in permanently shadowed regions (PSRs) and are in agreement with sub‐surface temperatures in non‐PSR.

    Global‐Scale Ionospheric Tomography During the March 17, 2015 Geomagnetic Storm (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-24
    Description: The correct representation of global‐scale electron density is crucial for monitoring and exploring the space weather. This study investigates whether the ground‐based Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) tomography can be used to reflect the global spatial and temporal responses of the ionosphere under storm conditions. A global tomography of the ionosphere electron density is constructed based on data from over 2,700 GNSS stations. In comparison to previous techniques, advances are made in spatial and temporal resolution, and in the assessment of results. To demonstrate the capabilities of the approach, the developed method is applied to the March 17, 2015 geomagnetic storm. The tomographic reconstructions show good agreement with electron density observations from worldwide ionosondes, Millstone Hill incoherent scatter radar and in‐situ measurements from satellite missions. Also, the results show that the tomographic technique is capable of reproducing plasma variabilities during geomagnetically disturbed periods including features such as equatorial ionization anomaly enhancements and depletion. Validation results of this brief study period show that the accuracy of our tomography is better than the Neustrelitz Electron Density Model, which is the model used as background, and physics‐based thermosphere‐ionosphere‐electrodynamics general circulation model. The results show that our tomography approach allows us to specify the global electron density from ground to ∼900 km accurately. Given the demonstrated quality, this global electron density reconstruction has potential for improving applications such as assessment of the effects of the electron density on radio signals, GNSS positioning, computation of ray tracing for radio‐signal transmission, and space weather monitoring.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Computerized tomography allows the 3D imaging of several objects based on radio frequency signal measurements. Given the measurements and geometry of the current GPS (Global Positioning System) satellite constellation, there is an opportunity to apply tomography techniques and extract 3D snapshots of the Earth's atmosphere. This work presents an advanced global‐scale tomography that can represent the electron density in the Earth's upper atmosphere in a relatively high spatial and temporal resolution in the region of ∼100–1,000 km above the Earth's surface; referred to as the ionosphere. The work also validates the tomography results with multiple ionospheric observations from satellites and ground‐based radar instruments and compares with empirical and physical models. It is usually a challenge for models to reproduce the ionospheric system dynamics accurately during active space weather conditions, such as geomagnetic storms. This work, using the severe geomagnetic storm on March 17, 2015 as a case‐study, shows that the tomography is well poised for this task. The developed method could be extended to benefit several applications, such as space weather monitoring, GPS positioning and navigation, as well as to improve our understanding of the morphology and dynamics of the ionosphere.
    Description: Key Points: Presents an advanced global‐scale tomography of ionospheric electron density. Demonstrates the capability of the tomography model to reproduce the system dynamics during a severe geomagnetic storm. Validates the tomography results with multiple ground‐ and space‐based data and compares with empirical and physical models.

    Induced Magnetic Fields and Plasma Motions in the Inner Part of the Martian Magnetosphere (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-24
    Description: Analysis of Mars Atmosphere and Volatile Evolution (MAVEN)/Supra‐Thermal And Thermal Ion Composition observations in the Martian upper atmosphere, bounded at higher altitudes by the shocked solar wind, shows that the draping of interplanetary magnetic field penetrates down to low altitudes (∼200−250 km) and governs dynamics of the ionosphere. The upper ionospheric plasma is driven into motion flowing around Mars similar to the shocked solar wind in the adjacent magnetosheath. Such a fluid‐like motion is accompanied by ion acceleration caused by the bending of the magnetic field, leading to ion extraction and finally to ion pickup. Extraction of ions and their acceleration produces a recoil effect of the bulk ionosphere in the opposite direction. This provides a strong asymmetry in ion dynamics in two different hemispheres, accompanied by wrapping of the magnetic field lines around Mars and respective reconnection.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Although the Martian magnetosphere is hybrid and contains components of the induced and intrinsic magnetosphere, is possible to display these components by using the specific coordinate systems. Here we study the properties of the induced magnetosphere using the data obtained by MAVEN spacecraft. The interplanetary magnetic field penetrates deep into the Martian ionosphere draping around Mars and drive to the motion dense ionospheric plasma. Draping features and the induced plasma motions occur different in two hemispheres determined by the direction of the motional electric field in the solar wind. Ion acceleration and extraction is accompanied by a recoil effect that leads to a shift and asymmetry of the ionosphere.
    Description: Key Points: Draping of the interplanetary magnetic field around Mars penetrates deep to the ionosphere enveloping the planet and driving the ionosphere to the bulk motion. Draping and motion of the ionospheric plasma is characterized by asymmetry by the direction of the motional electric field in solar wind. Ion acceleration and extraction from the ionosphere is accompanied by a shift of the bulk ionosphere in the opposite direction.

    Toward Parametrization of Precipitating Shallow Cumulus Cloud Organization via Moisture Variance (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-24
    Description: The influence of the initial vertical moisture profile on precipitating shallow cumulus cloud organization in terms of the column‐averaged moisture variance is investigated using large‐eddy simulations. Five idealized simulations based on the Rain in Cumulus over the Ocean field experiment with different initial moisture profiles are investigated. All cases simulate precipitating shallow cumulus convection in a marine sub‐tropical region under large‐scale subsidence. The results show that the moisture variance is mainly generated through the interaction of the moisture flux and the moisture gradient in the gradient production term at the top of the boundary layer. The development is characterized by three regimes: initial, transition, and quasi‐steady regime. During the initial regime, the moisture gradient is built up by moisture accumulation until precipitating convection starts. Within the transition regime, precipitation enables mesoscale cloud organization with enhanced convective activity and moisture fluxes. The moisture variance increases from the moist to the dry initial moisture profiles. In a following quasi‐steady regime, the moisture variance is approximately preserved. Thereby, the initial moisture gradient between the average sub‐cloud layer and the free atmosphere is found to be an important factor for the generation of the quasi‐steady column‐averaged moisture variance. The result suggests that a resolved‐scale variable like the moisture gradient can be used to estimate the quasi‐steady state conditions resulting from cloud organization. This finding may serve as a starting point for the parametrization of the subgrid scale cloud organization caused by precipitating shallow convection.
    Description: Key Points: Mesoscale organization of precipitating shallow cumulus changes the bulk properties of the atmospheric boundary layer (e.g., cloud cover). The increase of moisture variance during cloud organization is sensitive to the initial vertical moisture profiles. The average gradient between the average sub‐cloud layer and the free atmosphere is a good predictor of the moisture variance.

    Double accounting in energy footprint and related assessments : how common is it and what are the consequences? (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-24
    Description: The number of input-output assessments focused on energy has grown considerably in the last years. Many of these assessments combine data from multi-regional input-output (MRIO) databases with energy extensions that completely or partially depict the different stages through which energy products are supplied or used in the economy. The improper use of some energy extensions can lead to double accounting of some energy flows, but the frequency with which this happens and the potential impact on the results are unknown. Based on a literature review, we estimate that around a quarter of the MRIO-based energy assessments reviewed incurred into double accounting. Using the EXIOBASE MRIO database, we also analyse the effects of double accounting in the absolute values and rankings of different countries' and products' energy footprints. Building on the insights provided by our analysis, we offer a set of key recommendations to MRIO users to avoid the double accounting problem in the future. Likewise, we conclude that the harmonisation of the energy data across MRIO databases led by experts could simplify the choices of the data users until the provision of official energy extensions by statistical offices becomes a widespread practice.

    Sensitivity of Convection Permitting Simulations to Lateral Boundary Conditions in Idealized Experiments (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-28
    Description: Limited‐area convection‐permitting climate models (CPMs) with horizontal grid‐spacing less than 4 km and not relying on deep convection parameterisations (CPs) are being used more and more frequently. CPMs represent small‐scale features such as deep convection more realistically than coarser regional climate models (RCMs) with deep CPs. Because of computational costs, CPMs tend to use smaller horizontal domains than RCMs. As all limited‐area models (LAMs), CPMs suffer issues with lateral boundary conditions (LBCs) and nesting. We investigated these issues using idealized Big‐Brother (BB) experiments with the LAM COSMO‐CLM. Grid‐spacing of the reference BB simulation was 2.4 km. Deep convection was triggered by idealized hills with driving data from simulations with different spatial resolutions, with/without deep CP, and with different nesting frequencies and LBC formulations. All our nested idealized 2.4‐km Little‐Brother (LB) experiments performed worse than a coarser CPM simulation (4.9 km) which used a four times larger computational domain and yet spent only half the computational cost. A boundary zone of 〉100 grid‐points of the LBs could not be interpreted meteorologically because of spin‐up of convection and boundary inconsistencies. Hosts with grid‐spacing in the so‐called gray zone of convection (ca. 4–20 km) were not advantageous to the LB performance. The LB's performance was insensitive to the applied LBC formulation and updating (if ≤ 3‐hourly). Therefore, our idealized experiments suggested to opt for a larger domain instead of a higher resolution even if coarser than usual (∼5 $\sim 5$ km) as a compromise between the harmful boundary problems, computational cost and improved representation of processes by CPMs.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Recently, very high resolution (grid‐spacing 〈 4 km) so‐called convection‐permitting climate models (CPMs) were developed, which represent deep convection explicitly. CPMs, however, are computationally very expensive. They need information about the state of the atmosphere at their lateral boundaries from coarser models. This paper investigates the setting of the lateral boundary formulation. We used idealized experiments with grid‐spacing of ≈ 2.4 km, where deep convection was triggered by small hills. We found that a CPM boundary zone 〉 100 grid points cannot be interpreted reliably. The boundary data should be given to the CPM every 3 hr or more often. Small‐domain CPM simulations all performed worse than a reference simulation on a larger domain with the same resolution or with an even two times lower resolution. We tested different resolutions of the driving data for the CPMs and found that driving data from a model in the “gray zone” of convection (about 4–20 km) is not advantageous for the CPM performance. We concluded that it often might be better to opt for a larger domain with an unusually coarse CPM resolution (ca. 5 km) than for a much smaller domain with grid‐spacing 〈 4 km.
    Description: Key Points: The nesting challenge of convection‐permitting climate modeling (CPM) is investigated with idealized simulation experiments. Nesting the CPM into host simulations with grid‐spacing in the gray zone of convection is not better than into coarser simulations. Large boundary areas with poor simulation quality suggest using large domains even with grid‐spacing coarser than usually accepted for CPM.

    Examining the Wind Shear Theory of Sporadic E With ICON/MIGHTI Winds and COSMIC‐2 Radio 2 Occultation Data (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-28
    Description: The wind shear theory is widely accepted as an explanation for the formation of a sporadic E (Es) layer, but the direct comparison of Es with the local wind shear has been limited due to the lack of neutral wind measurements. This study examines the role of the vertical wind shear for Es, using signal‐to‐noise ratio profiles from COSMIC‐2 radio occultation measurements and concurrent measurements of neutral wind profiles from the Ionospheric Connection Explorer. It is observed that the Es occurrence rate and average S4 index are correlated with the negative vertical shear of the eastward wind, providing observational support for the wind shear theory. Es can be observed even when the vertical wind shear is positive, which is interpreted as metallic ion layers generated at an earlier time.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: Sporadic E (Es) is anomalous radio propagation resulting from intense clouds of ionization at heights of the E‐region ionosphere (90–120 km). The formation of an Es layer is generally attributed to the vertical wind shear, which can move metallic ions in the vertical direction by the Lorentz force. According to the wind shear theory, a negative shear of the eastward wind is effective in converging the metallic ions into a thin layer to produce Es. Although previous observations and modeling studies have supported the theory to various degrees, the direct comparison of Es with the vertical wind shear has been limited due to sparse observations of neutral winds at E‐region heights. Neutral wind profiles from the Ionospheric Connection Explorer mission, together with Es data from COSMIC‐2 radio occultation measurements, provide an opportunity to fill this knowledge gap. Direct comparisons of these measurements reveal that the Es occurrence rate is higher and lower for larger negative and positive wind shears, respectively, providing observational evidence for the wind shear theory.
    Description: Key Points: Conjunction observations of sporadic E (Es) from COSMIC‐2 and neutral wind profiles from Ionospheric Connection Explorer/Michelson Interferometer for Global High‐Resolution Thermospheric Imaging are analyzed. Es occurrence rate correlates with the negative vertical shear of eastward wind, providing observational evidence for the wind shear theory. Es can be observed even when the vertical shear of the local eastward wind is positive.

    Chemical Evolution of the Exceptional Arctic Stratospheric Winter 2019/2020 Compared to Previous Arctic and Antarctic Winters (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-28
    Description: The winter 2019/2020 showed the lowest ozone mixing ratios ever observed in the Arctic winter stratosphere. It was the coldest Arctic stratospheric winter on record and was characterized by an unusually strong and long‐lasting polar vortex. We study the chemical evolution and ozone depletion in the winter 2019/2020 using the global Chemistry and Transport Model ATLAS. We examine whether the chemical processes in 2019/2020 are more characteristic of typical conditions in Antarctic winters or in average Arctic winters. Model runs for the winter 2019/2020 are compared to simulations of the Arctic winters 2004/2005, 2009/2010, and 2010/2011 and of the Antarctic winters 2006 and 2011, to assess differences in chemical evolution in winters with different meteorological conditions. In some respects, the winter 2019/2020 (and also the winter 2010/2011) was a hybrid between Arctic and Antarctic conditions, for example, with respect to the fraction of chlorine deactivation into HCl versus ClONO2, the amount of denitrification, and the importance of the heterogeneous HOCl + HCl reaction for chlorine activation. The pronounced ozone minimum of less than 0.2 ppm at about 450 K potential temperature that was observed in about 20% of the polar vortex area in 2019/2020 was caused by exceptionally long periods in the history of these air masses with low temperatures in sunlight. Based on a simple extrapolation of observed loss rates, only an additional 21–46 h spent below the upper temperature limit for polar stratospheric cloud formation and in sunlight would have been necessary to reduce ozone to near zero values (0.05 ppm) in these parts of the vortex.
    Description: Key Points: The Arctic stratospheric winter 2019/2020 showed the lowest ozone mixing ratios ever observed and was one of the coldest on record. Chemical evolution of the Arctic winter 2019/2020 was a hybrid between typical Arctic and typical Antarctic conditions. Only an additional 21–46 h below PSC temperatures and in sunlight would have been necessary to reduce ozone to near zero locally.

    Description: Deutschlands Klimaschutzstrategie baut auf den Einsatz von grünem Wasserstoff aus erneuerbaren Energien. Doch wo soll der Wasserstoff herkommen, aus heimischer Produktion oder importiert aus dem Ausland? Eine Studie des Wuppertal Instituts und DIW Econ schafft einen Überblick über die aktuelle Datenlage und ermittelt Wertschöpfungs- und Beschäftigungseffekte beider Strategien. Das Resümee: Es trifft nicht zu, dass importierter Wasserstoff allgemein günstiger ist, entscheidend sind je nach Herkunftsland die tatsächlich realisierbaren Strom- und Transportkosten. Wird der grüne Wasserstoff stattdessen im eigenen Land produziert, wird dies zudem eine positive Beschäftigungswirkung und Wertschöpfung entfalten. Mit der Erreichung der Klimaziele 2050 betrüge die zusätzliche Wertschöpfung bei einer stark auf die heimische Erzeugung ausgerichtete Strategie bis zu 30 Milliarden Euro im Jahr 2050 und es könnten bis zu 800.000 Arbeitsplätze geschaffen werden.

    Description: By use of macro-economic model EXIOMOD, the expected impacts of actions described in the Strategic Research and Innovation Agenda (SRIA) have been analyzed. The results of this analysis show that the R&I actions described in the SRIA contribute to decoupling economic growth from resource use. The actions are expected to cause an increasing gross domestic product and a decreasing raw material demand. This results in an increasing extracted resource productivity, a measure used to show the decoupling of economic growth and resource use. It can however be questioned whether the actions in the SRIA - or the measures implemented in the model - assume a strong enough pace for decoupling economic growth and material use. The actions contribute to the climate goals of the European Commission, by showing a pathway through which the emissions of greenhouse gas can be reduced.

    Sensitivity to changes in the surface‐layer turbulence parameterization for stable conditions in winter: A case study with a regional climate model over the Arctic (2021)
    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. | Chichester, UK
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-23
    Description: The modeling of the atmospheric boundary layer over sea ice is still challenging because of the complex interaction between clouds, radiation and turbulence over the often inhomogeneous sea ice cover. There is still much uncertainty concerning sea ice roughness, near‐surface thermal stability and related processes, and their accurate parameterization. Here, a regional Arctic climate model forced by ERA‐Interim data was used to test the sensitivity of climate simulations to a modified surface flux parameterization for wintertime conditions over the Arctic. The reference parameterization as well as the modified one is based on Monin–Obukhov similarity theory, but different roughness lengths were prescribed and the stability dependence of the transfer coefficients for momentum, heat and moisture differed from each other. The modified parameterization accounts for the most comprehensive observations that are presently available over sea ice in the inner Arctic. Independent of the parameterization used, the model was able to reproduce the two observed dominant winter states with respect to cloud cover and longwave radiation. A stepwise use of the different parameterization assumptions showed that modifications of both surface roughness and stability dependence had a considerable impact on quantities such as air pressure, wind and near‐surface turbulent fluxes. However, the reduction of surface roughness to values agreeing with those observed during the Surface Heat Budget of the Arctic Ocean campaign led to an improvement in the western Arctic, while the modified stability parameterization had only a minor impact. The latter could be traced back to the model's underestimation of the strength of stability over sea ice. Future work should concentrate on possible reasons for this underestimation and on the question of generality of the results for other climate models.
    Description: The modeling of the atmospheric boundary layer over sea ice is challenging. This is, among others, due to the distinct sea ice surface roughness and pressure ridges as shown in the image, and the often stably stratified atmosphere. We quantified the impact of used parameterizations and show that both surface roughness and stability dependence have a considerable impact on near‐surface turbulent fluxes and atmospheric circulation in Arctic climate simulations.

    Tropical cyclone life cycle in a three‐dimensional numerical simulation (2021)
    John Wiley & Sons, Ltd | Chichester, UK
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-29
    Description: An idealized, three‐dimensional, numerical simulation of tropical cyclone evolution in a quiescent environment on an f‐plane is used to explore aspects of the cyclone's life cycle in the context of the rotating‐convection paradigm. In the 20‐day simulation, the vortex undergoes a life cycle including a gestation period culminating in genesis, a rapid intensification phase, a mature phase, a transient decay and re‐intensification phase, a second mature phase and a rapid decay phase. During much of the life cycle, the flow evolution is highly asymmetric, although important aspects of it can be understood within an azimuthally averaged framework, central to which are a boundary‐layer control mechanism and a new ventilation diagnostic. The boundary‐layer control mechanism provides an explanation for the gradual expansion of the inner core of the vortex. The ventilation diagnostic characterizes the ability of deep convection within a given radius to evacuate the mass of air ascending out of the boundary layer within that radius. The transient decay and re‐intensification phase is not associated with an eyewall replacement cycle, but rather with a hitherto undescribed process in which the eyewall becomes fragmented as a rainband complex forms beyond it. This process is interpreted as an interplay between the boundary layer and ventilation. The final rapid decay of the vortex results from the ever increasing difficulty of deep convection to ventilate the air exiting the boundary layer. Any unventilated air flows radially outwards in the lower troposphere and leads to spin‐down because of the approximate conservation of mean absolute angular momentum. If found in real cyclones, such transience or final decay might be erroneously attributed to ambient vertical wind shear. The results support the hypothesis that, even in a quiescent environment, isolated tropical cyclone vortices are intrinsically transient and never reach a globally steady state.

    Characterization and Evolution of Organized Shallow Convection in the Downstream North Atlantic Trades (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-29
    Description: Four previously identified patterns of meso‐scale cloud organization in the trades — called Sugar, Gravel, Flowers, and Fish — are studied using long‐term records of ground‐based measurements, satellite observations and reanalyzes. A deep neural network trained to detect these patterns is applied to satellite imagery to identify periods during which a particular pattern is observed over the Barbados Cloud Observatory. Surface‐based remote sensing at the observatory is composited and shows that the patterns can be distinguished by differences in cloud geometry. Variations in total cloudiness among the patterns are dominated by variations in cloud‐top cloudiness. Cloud amount near cloud base varies little. Each pattern is associated with a distinct atmospheric environment whose characteristics are traced back to origins that are not solely within the trades. Sugar air‐masses are characterized by weak winds and of tropical origin. Fish are driven by convergence lines originating from synoptical disturbances. Gravel and Flowers are most native to the trades, but distinguish themselves with slightly stronger winds and stronger subsidence in the first case and greater stability in the latter. The patterns with the higher cloud amounts and more negative cloud‐radiative effects, Flowers and Fish, are selected by conditions expected to occur less frequently with greenhouse warming.
    Description: Key Points: Meso‐scale patterns of trade‐wind clouds are identified with a neural network and characterized based on observations. The four analyzed patterns distinguish themselves by stratiform cloudiness and less by cloudiness at the lifting condensation level. Two patterns are imprinted by tropical, respectively extra‐tropical intrusions.

    Real‐Time Monitoring of Ionosphere VTEC Using Multi‐GNSS Carrier‐Phase Observations and B‐Splines (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-29
    Description: Monitoring the Vertical Total Electron Content (VTEC) of the ionosphere is important for applications ranging from navigation to detection of space weather events. Therefore, emerging efforts have been made by several analysis centers to estimate the VTEC using different approaches in real‐time. Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) is a crucial technology for ionosphere modeling due to its worldwide distributed receivers, high temporal resolution, and low latency data dissemination capability. The selection of a convenient approach to extract ionosphere information from GNSS and the representation of VTEC by an appropriate mathematical model are essential factors for providing fast and accurate ionosphere products. Contrarily to the widespread phase‐leveling method, which uses noisy and erroneous code measurements, the modeling concept in this paper utilizes pure carrier‐phase measurements. Measurements acquired through the International GNSS Service (IGS) real‐time service in Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services format are from GPS, GLONASS, and GALILEO. The measurement biases, including the ambiguity of carrier‐phase measurements, are simultaneously estimated along with VTEC model parameters. In our approach, VTEC is represented by B‐spline expansions embedded into a Kalman filter. Due to their localizing feature, B‐splines form a highly sparse structure in the filter measurement model. Thus, matrix operations for large‐scale problems can be performed fast using sparse matrix operations, as is done in this study. The differential slant total electron content (dSTEC) analysis and the comparison with Jason‐3 altimetry VTEC were performed for validation within selected periods in 2019. The dSTEC analysis shows that the quality of the generated real‐time VTEC maps slightly outperforms those provided by the other IGS analysis centers.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: As part of the Earth's upper atmosphere, the ionosphere is coupled to the Sun and the Earth's lower atmosphere by complex electromagnetic and dynamic interactions of charged particles (electrons and ions) and neutral species. Spatio‐temporal variations of the ionosphere electron content are of particular importance for technologies utilizing electromagnetic signals such as navigation and telecommunication since the electromagnetic waves are refracted/reflected while traveling through the ionosphere. There has been an increasing demand for real‐time ionosphere products to compute interactions between electromagnetic waves and the ionosphere in real‐time. In this context, the IGS and its several analysis centers have been developing models to provide global Vertical Electron Content (VTEC) products using different approaches based on Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) observations. By considering the crucial impact of the ionosphere and its constituents on our life, in this study, we model the ionosphere VTEC represented by B‐splines embedded into a Kalman filter in real‐time using carrier‐phase observations from geodetic GNSS receivers.
    Description: Key Points: A new real‐time approach estimating simultaneously coefficients of the B‐spline representation and biases of carrier‐phases was introduced. Carrier‐phase observations from GPS, GLONASS, and GALILEO were incorporated into an adaptive Kalman filter. Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) observations were obtained in Radio Technical Commission for Maritime Services format via the International GNSS Service real‐time service.

    Reanalysis in Earth System Science: Toward Terrestrial Ecosystem Reanalysis (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-03-29
    Description: A reanalysis is a physically consistent set of optimally merged simulated model states and historical observational data, using data assimilation. High computational costs for modeled processes and assimilation algorithms has led to Earth system specific reanalysis products for the atmosphere, the ocean and the land separately. Recent developments include the advanced uncertainty quantification and the generation of biogeochemical reanalysis for land and ocean. Here, we review atmospheric and oceanic reanalyzes, and more in detail biogeochemical ocean and terrestrial reanalyzes. In particular, we identify land surface, hydrologic and carbon cycle reanalyzes which are nowadays produced in targeted projects for very specific purposes. Although a future joint reanalysis of land surface, hydrologic, and carbon processes represents an analysis of important ecosystem variables, biotic ecosystem variables are assimilated only to a very limited extent. Continuous data sets of ecosystem variables are needed to explore biotic‐abiotic interactions and the response of ecosystems to global change. Based on the review of existing achievements, we identify five major steps required to develop terrestrial ecosystem reanalysis to deliver continuous data streams on ecosystem dynamics.
    Description: Plain Language Summary: A reanalysis is a unique set of continuous variables produced by optimally merging a numerical model and observed data. The data are merged with the model using available uncertainty estimates to generate the best possible estimate of the target variables. The framework for generating a reanalysis consists of the model, the data, and the model‐data‐fusion algorithm. The very specific requirements of reanalysis frameworks have led to the development of Earth‐compartment specific reanalysis for the atmosphere, the ocean and land. Here, we review atmospheric and oceanic reanalyzes, and in more detail biogeochemical ocean and terrestrial reanalyzes. In particular, we identify land surface, hydrologic, and carbon cycle reanalyzes which are nowadays produced in targeted projects for very specific purposes. Based on a review of existing achievements, we identify five major steps required to develop reanalysis for terrestrial ecosystem to shed more light on biotic and abiotic interactions. In the future, terrestrial ecosystem reanalysis will deliver continuous data streams on the state and the development of terrestrial ecosystems.
    Description: Key Points: Reanalyzes provide decades‐long model‐data‐driven harmonized and continuous data sets for new scientific discoveries. Novel global scale reanalyzes quantify the biogeochemical ocean cycle, terrestrial carbon cycle, land surface, and hydrologic processes. New observation technology and modeling capabilities allow in the near future production of advanced terrestrial ecosystem reanalysis.

    Description: Die vorangegangenen Analysen im RESTORE2050 Projekt, die im Rahmen dieses Berichts weitergeführt werden, haben gezeigt, dass der Einsatz von Wasserstoffspeichern zur Residuallastglättung nur bedingt geeignet ist. Zwar bietet die Technologie ein hohes technisches Potenzial hinsichtlich der Speicherkapazitäten und der installierbaren elektrischen Leistungen. Jedoch führt ein systemdienlicher Einsatz, bei dem positive Residuallastspitzen u. a. durch Anheben geringer Residuallasten gesenkt werden, wie er in den Modellrechnungen des RESTORE2050 Projektes implementiert ist, zu einer Absenkung der Deckungsraten von erneuerbaren Energien (EE) im europäischen Stromsystem. Dies ist dadurch begründet, dass die Umwandlung und Speicherung von EE-Strom als Wasserstoff (H2) im Vergleich zu anderen Speichertechnologien hohe Wandlungsverluste sowohl bei der H2-Erzeugung als auch bei der Rückverstromung aufweisen. Daher wird im Rahmen dieses Aufstockungsprojektes (RESTORE2050_plus) untersucht, welchen Beitrag alternative Einsatzstrategien der H2-Speicher zur Minimierung der negativen Residuallast, also potenzielle erneuerbaren Stromüberschüssen, und gleichzeitig zur Erhöhung der EE- Versorgungsanteile leisten kann.

    Description: Mit dem European Green Deal hat Europa seine Klimaschutzziele nach oben korrigiert und einen weiteren, erforderlichen Schritt auf dem Weg zur Dekarbonisierung unternommen. Die neuen europäischen Zielvorgaben sind in Deutschland mit der Verabschiedung des Klimaschutzgesetzes seit Ende 2019 schon verbindlich festgeschrieben, wobei hier bereits spezifische CO2-Budgets für die Einzelsektoren definiert werden. Die Umsetzung dieser Ziele verlangt eine radikale Transformation des heutigen Energieversorgungssystems. Der Umbau des komplexen und heterogenen Wärmebereiches stellt dabei eine der größten Herausforderung dar: Wärme ist in Europa für über 50 % des Endenergieverbrauches verantwortlich, wird aber gegenwärtig nur zu 22 % aus erneuerbaren Quellen bereitgestellt. Aus geoklimatischen, kulturellen und politischen Gründen sind dabei die Anteile in den einzelnen europäischen Ländern sehr unterschiedlich. Unter den Spitzenreitern sind Schweden (66 %) und Dänemark (48 %). Unser Nachbarland Österreich erreicht immerhin 34 %. Im Vergleich dazu liegt Deutschland mit 15 % abgeschlagen auf einem hinteren Platz. Der verstärkte Einsatz erneuerbarer Energien ist neben der Steigerung der Energieeffizienz die tragende Säule der Wärmewende, wobei hier ein breiter Mix an Technologien gefragt ist. Die direkte Nutzung der Wärmetechnologien hat weiterhin Priorität, erfordert aber eine stark beschleunigte Erschließung der vorhandenen Potenziale sowie einen nachhaltigen Umgang mit wertvoller Biomasse. Die Sektorenkopplung bietet die notwendige Ergänzung für die geplante Transformation (BMWi, 2021). Solarenergie in Form von Solarwärme und Solarstrom wird somit in Kombination mit Umweltwärme eine zentrale Rolle im zukünftigen Wärme- und Kälteversorgungssystem spielen. Darauf fokussiert sich der Beitrag, wobei die spezifische Situation der Niedertemperatur-Solarthermie und der Schlüsseltechnologie Wärmepumpe adressiert werden.

    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-02-18
    Description: A clear understanding of socio-technical interdependencies and a structured vision are prerequisites for fostering and steering a transition to a fully renewables-based energy system. To facilitate such understanding, a phase model for the renewable energy transition in MENA countries has been developed and applied to the country case of Algeria. It is designed to support the strategy development and governance of the energy transition and to serve as a guide for decision makers. The analysis shows that Algeria has already taken first steps towards a renewable energy transition. According to the MENA phase model, Algeria can be classified as entering the "Take-Off Renewables" phase. Nevertheless, fossil fuels still play a dominant role in the Algerian energy sector and in the economy as a whole. To support the renewables take-off, strong support is therefore needed at all levels. Only then can the necessary framework conditions be created to encourage participation and to attract investment from the private sector. To this end, a long-term energy strategy should to be developed that takes into account the renewable energy potential to support an efficient transformation of the Algerian energy supply and enables a smooth transition.

    Description: Nicht erst seit dem Klimaabkommen von Paris, welches im Kern eine Begrenzung der menschengemachten globalen Erwärmung auf deutlich unter 2 °C gegenüber vorindustriellen Werten vorsieht, ist offensichtlich, dass eine umfassende Transformation der meisten Wirtschaftssektoren erforderlich ist, um die gesteckten Ziele zu erreichen. Die Transformation erfolgt dabei zum einen durch Steigerung der Energieeffizienz und zum anderen durch eine Dekarbonisierung der bestehenden Prozesse, bei denen heute noch ein hoher Anteil fossiler Energien eingesetzt wird - dies kann gelingen durch eine weitreichende Sektorkopplung, Flexibilisierung und Elektrifizierung bei vollständiger Nutzung Erneuerbarer Energien. Letzteres stellt auch die Energieversorgung in Rheinland-Pfalz vor einen Paradigmenwechsel: Die schrittweise Transformation eines von konventionellen Energieträgern geprägten Versorgungsystems zu einem durch Erneuerbare Energien dominierten System. Als eines der ersten Bundesländer hat sich Rheinland-Pfalz bereits im Jahr 2014 ein eigenes Klimaschutzgesetz gegeben sowie erstmals im Jahr 2015 ein Landesklimaschutzkonzept (LKSK) erarbeitet, welches energiepolitische Leitplanken für den angestoßenen Transformationsprozess setzt. Die vorliegende Studie im Auftrag des Ministeriums für Umwelt, Energie, Ernährung und Forsten Rheinland-Pfalz beleuchtet die Auswirkungen eines weiteren Ausbaus der Erneuerbaren Energien in Rheinland-Pfalz und der damit verbundenen Flexibilisierung und Dekarbonisierung unterschiedlicher Anwendungsfelder, insbesondere in der Industrie aber auch im ÖPNV und zentraler Wärmeversorgung.

    Description: The basic materials industries are a cornerstone of Europe's economic prosperity, increasing gross value added and providing around 2 million high-quality jobs. But they are also a major source of greenhouse gas emissions. Despite efficiency improvements, emissions from these industries were mostly constant for several years prior to the Covid-19 crisis and today account for 20 per cent of the EU's total greenhouse gas emissions. A central question is therefore: How can the basic material industries in the EU become climate-neutral by 2050 while maintaining a strong position in a highly competitive global market? And how can these industries help the EU reach the higher 2030 climate target - a reduction of greenhouse gas emissions of at least 55 per cent relative to 1990 levels? In the EU policy debate on the European Green Deal, many suppose that the basic materials industries can do little to achieve deep cuts in emissions by 2030. Beyond improvements to the efficiency of existing technologies, they assume that no further innovations will be feasible within that period. This study takes a different view. It shows that a more ambitious approach involving the early implementation of key low-carbon technologies and a Clean Industry Package is not just possible, but in fact necessary to safeguard global competitiveness.

    Publication Date: 2022-02-23
    Description: Especially in the arid areas of the Middle East and North Africa (MENA), water availability plays an important role in the expansion planning of industrial-scale solar power plants. Although power plants may account for only a very small portion of local water demand, competition for water with other sectors is expected to increase when water resources are insufficient for meeting local needs. This can lead to conflicts between different users (such as communities, farmers, tourism, businesses and utilities). Despite the increasing attention on the water-energy nexus, comprehensive studies analysing the interdependencies and potential conflicts between energy and water at the local level are absent. To examine the linkages between water resources and energy technologies at the local level, this case study was selected because Morocco is one of the countries most affected by water scarcity and, at the same time, it is also one of the most promising countries in North Africa for the development of renewable energies and offers excellent conditions for solar and wind power plants. Nevertheless, the country's electricity system is still largely based on conventional energy sources, and the country is more than 95% dependent on energy imports. To strengthen the country's energy security and reduce the financial burden associated with energy imports, Morocco is pursuing an ambitious renewable energy expansion strategy: by 2020, around 42% of the national electricity demand should be met by renewable energies. In view of Morocco's ambitious plans, it is particularly important to identify the potential conflicts and synergies resulting from the expansion of renewable energies in relation to the water sector.

    Meta-study on energy scenarios (2021)
    Bochum : Ruhr-Universität Bochum
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-02-23
    Description: The energy sector today accounts for about 10% to 15% of global freshwater withdrawal. Most water in the energy sector is used for generating electricity, especially for cooling processes in thermal power plants. At the same time the demand for electricity is expected to increase significantly due to population growth and economic development in emerging and developing economies. Growing demand is also driven by electrification strategies pursued by industrialized countries to decarbonize their economies. With the global demand for electricity expected to increase significantly in the coming decades also the water demand in the power sector is expected to rise. However, due to the on-going global energy transition, the future structure of the power supply - and hence future water demand for power generation - is subject to high levels of uncertainty because the volume of water required for electricity generation varies significantly depending on both the generation technology and cooling system. In light of these challenges the objective of this analysis is to provide more systematic and robust answers in terms of the impacts of different decarbonization strategies in the electricity sector on water demand at global and regional level. The focus is on operational water use for electricity generation.

    Conceptualisation of the potential renewables pull effect : a result of topic area 3 "scenarios and transformation pathways" of the research project SCI4climate.NRW (2021)
    Wuppertal : SCI4climate.NRW
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-02-23
    Description: This report was prepared by the Wuppertal Institute in cooperation with the German Economic Institute as part of the SCI4climate.NRW project. The report aims to shed light on the possible phenomenon that the availability and costs of "green" energy sources may become a relevant location factor for basic materials produced in a climate-neutral manner in the future. For this purpose, we introduce the term "Renewables Pull". We define Renewables Pull as the initially hypothetical phenomenon of a shift of industrial production from one region to another as a result of different marginal costs of renewable energies (or of secondary energy sources or feedstocks based on renewable energies). Shifts in industrial production in the sense of Renewables Pull can in principle be caused by differences in the stringency of climate policies in different countries, as in the case of Carbon Leakage. Unlike Carbon Leakage, however, Renewables Pull can also occur if similarly ambitious climate policies are implemented in different countries. This is because Renewables Pull is primarily determined by differences in the costs and availability of renewable energies. In addition, Renewables Pull can also be triggered by cost reductions of renewable energies and by changing preferences on the demand side towards climate-friendly products. Another important difference to Carbon Leakage is that the Renewables Pull effect does not necessarily counteract climate policy. Similar to Carbon Leakage, it is to be expected that Renewables Pull could become relevant primarily for very energy-intensive products in basic materials industries. In these sectors (e.g. in the steel or chemical industry), there is also the possibility that relocations of specific energy-intensive parts of the production process could trigger domino effects. As a result, large parts of the value chains previously existing in a country or region could also be subjected to an (indirect) Renewables Pull effect. For the federal state of NRW, in which the basic materials industry plays an important role, the possible emergence of Renewables Pull is associated with significant challenges as climate policy in Germany, the EU and also worldwide is expected to become more ambitious in the future. This report aims to enable and initiate a deeper analysis of the potential future developments and challenges associated with the Renewables Pull effect. Thus, in the final chapter of the report, several research questions are formulated that can be answered in the further course of the SCI4climate.NRW project as well as in other research projects.

Frontiers in Marine Science, 8, (2021): 590213, https://doi.org/10.3389/fmars.2021.590213.
    Description: Canada has undertaken commitments to recognize the rights of Indigenous Peoples in fisheries through policies and agreements, including Integrated Fishery Management Plans, the Reconciliation Strategy, and Land Claim Agreements (LCAs). In addition to recognizing rights, these commitments were intended to respect geographic adjacency principles, to enhance the economic viability of Indigenous communities, and to be reflective of community dependence on marine resources. We examined the determinants of quota allocations in commercial fisheries involving Nunatsiavut, Northern Labrador, the first self-governing region for the Inuit peoples in Canada. It has been argued that current fishery allocations for Nunatsiavut Inuit have not satisfied federal commitments to recognize Indigenous rights. Indicators that measure equity in commercial allocations for the turbot or Greenland halibut (Reinhardtius hippoglossoides) and northern shrimp (Pandalus borealis) fisheries were identified and assessed. In these two cases, historical allocations continue to predominate for allocations based upon equity or other social or economic considerations. We illustrate equity-enhancing changes in the quota distribution under scenarios of different levels of inequality aversion, and we make qualitative assessments of the effects of these allocations to Nunatsiavut for socioeconomic welfare. This approach could benefit fisheries governance in Northern Labrador, where federal commitments to equity objectives continue to be endorsed but have not yet been integrated fully into quota allocations.
    Description: This research was undertaken with funding from the Canada First Research Excellence Fund through the Ocean Frontier Institute (MK and MB) and the Johnson Endowment of the Woods Hole Oceanographic Institution’s (WHOI) Marine Policy Center (PH).

    Wege in eine ökologische Machine Economy : wir brauchen eine "Grüne Governance der Machine Economy", um das Zusammenspiel von Internet of Things, Künstlicher Intelligenz und Distributed Ledger Technology ökologisch zu gestalten (2021)
    Wuppertal : Wuppertal Institut für Klima, Umwelt, Energie
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-11-10
    Description: Im Zeitalter der Machine Economy ist der maschinelle Dialog allgegenwärtig - das bietet neue Chancen für Nachhaltigkeit, erhöht gleichzeitig aber durch die zugrundeliegenden Technologien auch den Druck auf unsere Umwelt. Internet of Things (IoT), Künstliche Intelligenz (KI) und Distributed Ledger Technology (DLT) sind das technologische Fundament der Machine Economy. Damit verbunden sind Infrastrukturen, Datenströme und Anwendungen, die hohe Energie- sowie Ressourcenaufwände erzeugen. Der derzeitige politische Diskurs sowie die Nachhaltigkeitsforschung fokussieren sich auf Umweltwirkungen durch digitale Infrastrukturen. Daten, Applikationen sowie die Rolle von Akteuren als Treiber der Umweltwirkung werden zu wenig beleuchtet. In diesem Papier sprechen sich die Autorinnen und Autoren für eine "Grüne Governance der Machine Economy" aus. Adressiert werden Annahmen zu systemübergreifenden Treibern von Umweltbelastungen und ihrer Wirkung. Ziel ist es, ein Gesamtsystem nachhaltiger Entscheidungen und ein ökologisches Zusammenspiel aller beteiligten Technologien in der Wertschöpfung zu ermöglichen. Zukünftige Forschung soll die hier vorgestellten Hypothesen weiter ausarbeiten und konkrete Handlungsoptionen für eine Stakeholder übergreifende Roadmap erarbeiten.

    Description: Mit der Blockchain - und allgemein mit Distributed-Ledger-Technologien (DLT) - werden große Erwartungen verknüpft, die Prozesse der digitalen Welt des 21. Jahrhunderts neu zu organisieren, effizienter zu gestalten und bislang ungekannte Möglichkeiten für Transaktionen zwischen Beteiligten in Wirtschaft, Gesellschaft und Verwaltung zu ermöglichen. Diese Chancen müssen genutzt werden. Gleichzeitig ist mit der Blockchain-Technologie wie mit allen anderen digitalen Lösungen die Herausforderung verbunden, die Technologien, Anwendungen und zugrundeliegenden Infrastrukturen nachhaltig zu gestalten und an Energieeffizienz, Klimaschutz und Ressourcenschonung auszurichten. Handlungsbedarf besteht auch bei Blockchain-Anwendungen. Der Energieverbrauch des derzeit größten Blockchain-Netzwerks Bitcoin wird auf bis über 130 TWh/Jahr abgeschätzt, womit eine Größenordnung in Höhe des gesamten Jahresstrombedarfs von Ländern wie Argentinien erreicht würde. Blockchain-Anwendungen sind somit schon heute umweltpolitisch relevante Einflussgrößen und die zu erwartende Wachstumsdynamik erhöht den Handlungsdruck. Es ist das Ziel dieser Kurzstudie, geeignete Nachhaltigkeitskriterien zur Bewertung der Energieverbräuche und Umweltwirkungen von Blockchain-Anwendungen zu identifizieren sowie ein erstes Konzept für deren Implementierung bei der Umsetzung und Vergabe staatlich geförderter oder initiierter Projekte vorzuschlagen.

    Sustainable transformation of Tunisia's energy system : development of a phase model (2021)
    Tunis : Friedrich-Ebert-Stiftung
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-06-15
    Description: A clear understanding of socio-technical interdependencies and a structured vision are prerequisites for fostering and steering a transition to a fully renewables-based energy system. To facilitate such understanding, a phase model for the renewable energy (RE) transition in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) countries has been developed and applied to the country case of Tunisia. It is designed to support the strategy development and governance of the energy transition and to serve as a guide for decision makers. The analysis shows that Tunisia has already taken important steps towards a RE transition. According to the MENA phase model, Tunisia can be classified as being in the "Take-Off Renewables" phase. Nevertheless, natural gas still plays the dominant role in Tunisia's highly subsidised electricity generation. In addition to the elevated political uncertainty, there are numerous structural, political, social, and economic challenges within the energy sector that hinder progress in the transition to REs. Strong support at all levels is needed to promote the breakthrough of RE. This includes more detailed long-term planning and improving the regulatory framework, as well as reducing offtaker risks to improve the bankability of RE projects in order to attract private investment. Furthermore, institutional buy-in needs to be increased and the engagement of key non-state stakeholders must be strengthened. In light of the growing domestic energy demand and with the on-going global decarbonisation efforts in favour of sustainable fuels, Tunisia would be well advised to embark on a sustainable energy path sooner rather than later to seize economic opportunities that can arise from RE development.

    Description: Round scad exploration by purse seine in the waters of western Philippines was conducted from April 22 to May 7, 1998 for a period of five (5) fishing days with a total catch of 7.3 tons and an average of 1.5 tons per setting. Dominant species caught were Decapterus spp. having 70.09% of the total catch, followed by Selar spp. at 12.66% and Rastrelliger spp. 10.70%. Among the Decapterus spp. caught, D. macrosoma attained the highest total catch composition by species having 68.81% followed by D. kurroides and D.russelli with 0.31% and 1.14% respectively. The round scad fishery stock was composed mainly of juvenile fish (less than 13 cm) and Age group II (13 cm to 14 cm). Few large round scad at Age group IV and V (20 cm to 28 cm) stayed at the fishery. Other fishes caught were: Auxis rochei (0.85%), A. thazard (0.12%), Caranx spp. (0.45%), Emmilichthys nitidus (0.58%), Euthynnus affinis (0.42%), Leiognathus ruconius (0.58%), Loligo sp. (0.31%), Megalaspis cordyla (0.09%), Rastrelliger spp. (10.70%), Sardinella longiceps (0.03%), Scomberoides lysan (0.24%), Selar spp. (12.66%), Sphyraena spp. (0.90%), Thunnus albacares (0.96%) and others (1.02%). Tuna and tuna like fishes such as yellowfin tuna, eastern little tuna, bullet tuna, frigate tuna and oceanic squid are distributed in the upper latitudes of the survey area. On the other hand, round scads, big-eyed scads and Indian mackerels are dominantly present in the lower latitudes of the survey area.

    Description: An exploratory tuna longline fishing survey was conducted using the research and training vessels of the Southeast Asian Fisheries Development Center, the 1,178 GT MV SEAFDEC and the Bureau of Fisheries and Aquatic Resources, the 165 GT MV MAYA-MAYA in the South China Sea Waters, West of the Philippines from April to May, 1998. A total of 3,796 hooks was set in sixteen (16) fishing stations. There were no tuna caught during the entire survey but only minor and irrelevant species like the Pacific lancetfish, sharks and an opah species, Lampris guttatus. The important fishing and oceanographic factors during the survey and other research results on longline are described and analyzed. Additional longline studies within and near the Philippines territorial waters are also presented to substantiate the research results of the joint SEAFDEC/BFAR resource exploratory.

    Description: Cholera is an acute specific infection caused by the organism, Vibrio cholera. Diagnosis may be confirmed by the presence of large numbers of the comma-shaped bacilli on direct microscopic examination of a fecal or vomitus smear, and by the isolation of the organism on culture. Fish and shellfish have been identified as vehicles of cholera. Large numbers of V. cholera must usually be ingested to cause cholera. Thus problems often occur when poor handling and inadequate refrigeration have allowed the organism to multiply. Presented in the paper is the methodology of determining the presence of Vibrio cholera in fish and fishery products.

    Description: Fishery statistics in Brunei Darussalam have been collected by the Department of Fisheries since the 1940s. In the early 1980s, a number of statistics were collected, such as catch and effort data of artisanal fishermen, aquaculture statistics, processing statistics as well as data from major wet markets focusing on the amount, prices of marketed fish either from the local fishermen or imported. In 1984, the collection of statistics on commercial fishing was started. The statistics have been used in the formulation of fishery management and development policies as well as for sectoral development. Following a brief account of the responsibility and statistic collections of the Department of Fisheries, an examination is made of employment in the fishery sector, fisheries production, fish marketed and the GDP for the fishery industry. Fisheries in Brunei Darussalam is a very healthy industry, where production is well below the maximum allowable harvestable limit of 20,000 tons at 30%. The Department is embarking to increase production from the capture fishery to reduce the country's dependence on imported fish; the same applies for aquaculture, in order to complement production from the capture fisheries. The processing sector is also increasing in importance, especially with the increase in the number of capture fishery licenses, and the demand for quality and value-added products.

    Description: Food poisoning due to Vibrio parahaemolyticus is a food-borne infection resulting from the ingestion of a large number of this organism (about 106-109 viable cells). The major symptoms are diarrhea and abdominal pain with headache, fever, and vomiting also occurring. The organisms are excreted during the acute stage of the illness after which they decrease rapidly. The differentiation of V. parahaemolyticus from other pathogenic species of Vibrio is based mainly on salt tolerance, Voges-Proskauer reaction, fermentation of sucrose, and growth at 43°C. Presented in the paper is the methodology of determining the presence of Vibrio cholera in fish and fishery products.

    Best practice für Journal Data Policies: Inhalte und Umsetzung (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-11-29
    Description: In Erklärungen zu data sharing in den data policies von Zeitschriften wird empfohlen bzw. vorgeschrieben, dass Daten, die die Grundlage des Artikels bilden, zur Verfügung gestellt werden. Data policies sind dabei neben der notwendigen technischen Infrastruktur und nicht-technischen Aspekten wie einer positiven persönlichen Einstellung von Wissenschaftler*innen entscheidende Instrumente, um data sharing zum Zwecke der wissenschaftlichen Transparenz und Nachnutzung der Daten zu fördern. Die best practice für die Veröffentlichung von Daten wurde inzwischen für viele Fachdisziplinen beschrieben. Eine häufige Forderung in diesen Empfehlungen ist, dass alle zentralen Forschungsergebnisse in Repositorien publiziert werden, die sich an den FAIR-Prinzipien orientieren. Das bedeutet auch, dass „supplementary electronic material“ auf den Webseiten der Zeitschriftenverlage nicht mehr als primäres Datenarchiv verwendet werden soll. Zeitschriften sollten umfassende, klare und aktuelle Informationen bereitstellen, die allgemeine Grundsätze für die Nachnutzung von Daten sowie die Einzelheiten dessen beschreiben, was von den Autoren in Bezug auf die Bereitstellung von Forschungsdaten erwartet wird. Im ersten Teil der Präsentation werden die wichtigsten Komponenten einer aktuellen journal data policy vor dem Hintergrund neuer Erkenntnisse zu diesem Thema diskutiert. Fachgesellschaften sowie Einrichtungen geben häufig wissenschaftliche Zeitschriften heraus, und als "Eigentümer" der Zeitschriften haben sie die Kontrolle über die Existenz und den Inhalt der data policies der Zeitschriften. Im zweiten Teil der Präsentation wird beschrieben, wie innerhalb weniger Monate im Sommer 2020 eine data policy für die Zeitschrift „Hydrologie und Wasserbewirtschaftung, HyWa“ eingeführt wurde. Die Zeitschrift HyWa ist eine deutschsprachige Fachzeitschrift, herausgegeben durch die gewässerkundlichen Fachverwaltungen des Bundes und der Länder, die Themen der Hydrologie und Wasserwirtschaft umfassend behandeln. Im Sommer 2020 erreichten die HyWa-Redaktion Anfragen seitens universitärer Einrichtungen zur Möglichkeit für Online-Datenanhänge zu einem geplanten Artikel. Um diesem neuen Sachverhalt, der Publizierung von Artikeln mit Fachdaten nachzukommen, wurde unter Abstimmung mit dem HyWa- Redaktionsausschuss und Inkenntnissetzung der HyWa-Editoren mit Unterstützung des Fachinformationsdienstes Geowissenschaften (FID GEO) im August 2020 eine Data Policy erstellt und auf der HyWa-Homepage publiziert (www.hywa-online.de). Die Analyse der Online-Zugriffe auf die neu eingerichtete Webseite zeigt, dass sie stetig wahrgenommen wird.

    Schnellst- oder genauestmöglich? Die multifrequente SIP Anregung ermöglicht die optimale Adaption des Messablaufs an das Untersuchungsobjekt. (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: Die Methode der Spektrale Induzierte Polarisation (SIP) misst die Frequenzabhängigkeit des spezifischen elektrischen Widerstandes von Gesteinen nach Betrag und Phase. In der Frequenzabhängigkeit des Widerstandes spiegelt sich unter anderem die Geometrie des Porenraumes und den darin befindlichen Fluiden wieder. Üblicherweise wird das Widerstandsspektrum mit monofrequenten Signalen sequentiell vermessen. Diese Vorgehensweise erweist sich bei großskaligen Messanordnungen mit hohen Störspannungen als vorteilhaft da die Energie des Messgerätes auf einen schmalen Frequenzbereich konzentriert und eine Unterscheidung von Nutz- und Störfrequenzen erleichtert wird. Bei Labormessungen spielen Störspannungen häufig nur eine untergeordnete Rolle. Wichtiger ist hier ein möglichst hoher Messfortschritt. Am schnellsten ist die sequentielle SIP Messung, wenn jeweils nur Einzelperioden verwendet werden. Bei einer Frequenz pro Oktave, dauert die Gesamtmessung idealerweise doppelt so lange wie die längste Periode andauert. Überlagert man jedoch sämtliche Einzelfrequenzen (multifrequente Anregung) dann benötigt man nur die halbe Zeit. Der höhere Messfortschritt geht jedoch einher mit einer verringerten Messgenauigkeit. Ursache hierfür ist, dass die Einzelamplituden soweit verringert werden müssen, dass die Summenamplitude nicht die maximale Ausgangsspannung des Messgerätes überschreitet. Im Poster wird ein neu entwickeltes 88-kanaliges SIP-Labor-Messgerät (SIP-LAB-FAST) vorgestellt, das eine Anregung mit 1 - 24 Frequenzen gleichzeitig erlaubt. Bei z.B. einer Frequenz pro Octave lässt sich so ein Frequenzbereich von über 7 Dekaden mit einer Einzelmessung vermessen. Eine multifrequente Anregung erfordert auch eine leistungsfähige Hardware zur Echtzeit-Verarbeitung der Zeitreihen von Strom und Spannung. Hierzu wurde für jede Frequenz eine Diskrete Fourier Transformation (DFT) implementiert. Mittels einer multivariaten Kohärenzanalyse werden dann aus den Fourier Koeffizienten das komplexwertige Impedanz-Spektrum, sowie den zugehörigen Vertrauensintervallen berechnet. Durch die freie Wahl des Anregungssignales erhält der SIP Anwender eine erweiterte Möglichkeit den Messablauf optimal an die Fragestellung anzupassen. Ein Vergleich der mono- und multifrequenten Messergebnisse von verschiedenen Materialproben belegt die Leistungsfähigkeit der neuartigen Messtechnik.

    Wind Turbine Noise Reduction from Seismological Data (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: Over the last years, installations of wind turbines (WTs) increased worldwide. Owing to negative effects on humans, WTs are often installed in areas with low population density. Because of low anthropogenic noise, these areas are also well suited for sites of seismological stations. As a consequence, WTs are often installed in the same areas as seismological stations. By comparing the noise in recorded data before and after installation of WTs, seismologists noticed a substantial worsening of station quality leading to conflicts between the operators of WTs and earthquake services. In this study, we compare different techniques to reduce or eliminate the disturbing signal from WTs at seismological stations. For this purpose, we selected a seismological station that shows a significant correlation between the power spectral density and the hourly windspeed measurements. Usually, spectral filtering is used to suppress noise in seismic data processing. However, this approach is not effective when noise and signal have overlapping frequency bands which is the case for WT noise. As a first method, we applied the continuous wavelet transform (CWT) on our data to obtain a time-scale representation. From this representation, we estimated a noise threshold function (Langston & Mousavi, 2019) either from noise before the theoretical P-arrival (pre-noise) or using a noise signal from the past with similar ground velocity conditions at the surrounding WTs. Therefore, we installed low cost seismometers at the surrounding WTs to find similar signals at each WT. From these similar signals, we obtain a noise model at the seismological station, which is used to estimate the threshold function. As a second method, we used a denoising autoencoder (DAE) that learns mapping functions to distinguish between noise and signal (Zhu et al., 2019). In our tests, the threshold function performs well when the event is visible in the raw or spectral filtered data, but it fails when WT noise dominates and the event is hidden. In these cases, the DAE removes the WT noise from the data. However, the DAE must be trained with typical noise samples and high signal-to-noise ratio events to distinguish between signal and interfering noise. Using the threshold function and pre-noise can be applied immediately on real-time data and has a low computational cost. Using a noise model from our prerecorded database at the seismological station does not improve the result and it is more time consuming to find similar ground velocity conditions at the surrounding WTs.

    Reprocessing of the hessian DEKORP seismic profiles (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: As part of the German continental seismic reflection program (Deutsches Kontinentales Reflexionsseismisches Programm, DEKORP), three large seismic traverses (with the sub-profiles: DEKORP'84-2S and '86-2N; DEKORP'88-9N; DEKORP'90-3A and '90-3B) were measured in the state of Hesse in Germany. The main research topic of DEKORP were deep seismic studies to investigate the lithospheric structure beneath Germany. Thus, for acquisition, strong sources were used to image in these depths, resulting in an excellent S/N ratio, but the main focus was not on the uppermost kilometres. From today's perspective, however, this depth range is of great interest for a wide range of possible technical applications (including medium-deep and deep geothermal projects). The DEKORP profiles cover approx. 450 km in the state of Hesse and mostly cross areas where only insufficient geological data exist (i.e. only few deep boreholes). In order to close or reduce these knowledge gaps, these DEKORP lines were reprocessed in 2019/20. The focus of the reprocessing was on improving the resolution / mapping of geological structures down to a depth of 6 km (approx. 3 s TWT) to describe the prolongation of faults and geological structures in more detail than in previous studies. Nevertheless, deeper structures were also reinterpreted and compared to previous interpretations. The results were directly incorporated into the new geological 3D model of the state of Hesse, developed by the Technical University of Darmstadt (Hessen3D 2.0, BMWi-FKZ: 0325944). In order to achieve these goals and in view of the fact that today's processing methods have improved considerably compared to the 1990‘s, a state-of-the-art reprocessing was applied for all DEKORP profiles traversing the state of Hesse. In comparison to the original processing, additional processing steps like CRS instead of CDP stacking, turning-ray tomography and prestack depth migration were carried out. We present exemplary results of the reprocessing as well as initial geological reinterpretations for the profile DEKORP'88-9N.

    Numerical analysis of gravity and magnetic fields prior to structural modelling (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: The work presented here is part of ongoing studies in the AlpArray initiative and the priority program "MB-4D" regarding the modelling of the lithosphere in the Ligurian Sea (northwestern Mediterranean Sea). It will be based on constraining data from LOBSTER and LISA campaigns of past GEOMAR projects and a study in our research group at CAU Kiel. Our motivation is the combination and interdisciplinary interpretation of independent information from geology, tectonics, geophysics, and petrology. The existing gravity fields, especially the new compilation of the AlpArray Gravity Research Group (AAGRG) is considered as database (high resolution Free Air- and Bouguer anomalies) and the isostatic residual field, besides data of the ICGEM Potsdam (disturbance) and the ESA GOCE gradients for gravity and data for the magnetic field anomaly. The gravity and magnetic fields are analyzed using Euler deconvolution with regularization (R. Pašteka, Comenius University Bratislava) and application of curvature analysis we use both, the fields themselves and their gradients. Besides the calculation of the so-called "3rd derivative" of the gravity potential, we also investigate a possible use of the invariants of the gravity field based on gradient data and compare and correlate the results with structural and tectonic maps in the area of the Ligurian Sea and the adjacent French and Italian mainland. The findings from these comparisons will later be used to initiate the compilation of 3D density and susceptibility models for the studied region.

    Induced micro seismicity due to raising mine water level in former coal mines in the eastern Ruhr area (Germany) (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: FloodRisk is an interdisciplinary project focusing on the effects of mine water level rise in bandoned coal mine regions in Germany. Such effects are heterogeneous ground uplift, stress changes due to the change in pore pressure and the reactivation of potential faults. One of the most directly measurable effects is certainly the induced micro seismicity. It is known from previous studies that the flooding of old mines can lead to a renewed increase level in induced micro seismicity in these regions. In this study the relationship between mine water rise, fluid-induced stress changes and induced seismicity in the Haus Aden dewatering area in the eastern Ruhr area (Germany) will be investigated in more detail. For this purpose, we operate a network of currently 21 short period seismic stations in the region of the former "Bergwerk Ost" colliery, which had the highest seismicity rate in the Ruhr area during active underground coal mining. This network is still to be expanded to cover the entire water drainage area, about 30 Raspberry Shake sensors are waiting for the possibility of installation. Nevertheless, the existing network registered almost 1000 induced micro seismic events in a magnitude range from -0.7 up to 2.6 MLv. Many of these events are spatially clustered and some show quite high waveform similarity. This allows relative localisation and can increase the accuracy of the location. The depth location of the earthquakes, within the limits of localisation accuracy, agrees very well with the distribution of seismicity at the time of active mining. The spatial distribution so far seems to be limited by a large inactive transverse fault in the west. It needs to be clarified what influence this fault has on the propagation of mine water in the underground. The measured temporal trend of the mine water level, after pumps were shut down in mid-2019, shows a strong correlation with the temporal evolution of the observed micro seismicity. In the first months after the pumps are switched off, the water levels at the observation points rise only slowly and isolated microseismic events occur again. In November 2019, the rise in water levels doubled and at the same time, the strongest induced event in the measurement period was recorded with a magnitude of 2.6 MLv . In the following months, the seismicity rate ranged from 8 to 34 events above 0.5 MLv per month, some of which were felt.

    Interdisciplinary 3D potential field modelling of complex lithospheric structures by IGMAS+ (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: We introduce an approach for 3D joint interpretation of potential fields and its derivatives under the condition of constraining data and information. The interactive 3D gravity and magnetic application IGMAS (Interactive Gravity and Magnetic Application System) has been around for more than 30 years, initially developed on a mainframe and then transferred to the first DOS PCs, before it was adapted to Linux in the ’90s and finally implemented as a cross-platform Java application with GUI. Since 2019 IGMAS+ is maintained and developed in the Helmholtz Centre Potsdam – GFZ German Research Centre by the staff of Section 4.5 – Basin Modelling and ID2 – eScience Centre. The core of IGMAS+ applies an analytical solution of the volume integral for the gravity and magnetic effect of a homogeneous body. It is based on the reduction of the three-folded integral to an integral over the bounding polyhedrons that are formed by triangles. Later the algorithm has been extended to cover all elements of the gravity tensor as well and the optimized storage enables fast leastsquares inversion of densities and changes to the model geometry and this flexibility makes geometry changes easy. Because of the triangular model structure of model interfaces, IGMAS can handle complex structures (multi- Z surfaces) like the overhangs of salt domes and variable densities due to voxelization. To account for the curvature of the Earth, we use spherical geometries. Therefore IGMAS+ is capable to handle models from big-scale to regional and small-scale models (meters) used in Applied Geophysics.

    Inverse and forward gravity modeling for revealing the crustal structure of Volga-Uralian subcraton (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: A new crustal model of the Volga-Uralian subcraton was built. The compilation of the model was subdivided in two steps: (1) inverse gravity modeling followed by (2) thorough forward gravity modeling. For inverse gravity modeling GOCE gravity gradients were used. The effect of the Earth sphericity was taken into account by using tesseroids. Density contrasts between crust and mantle were varied laterally according to the tectonic units present in the region. The model is constrained by the available seismic data including receiver function studies, and deep reflection and refraction profiles. The Moho discontinuity obtained during the gravity inversion was consequently modified, and complemented by the sedimentary cover, upper crust, lower crust, and lithospheric mantle layers in the process of forward gravity modeling. Obtained model showed crustal thickness variation from 34 to more than 55 km in some areas. The thinnest crust with the thickness below 40 km appeared on the Pericaspian basin with the thickest sedimentary column. A relatively thin crust was found along the central Russia rift system, while the thickest crust is located underneath Ural Mountains as well as in the center of the Volga-Uralian subcraton. In both areas the crustal thickness exceeds 50 km. At the same time, the gravity misfit of ca. 95 mGal between the measured Bouguer gravity anomaly and forward calculated gravity field was revealed in the central area of the Volga-Uralian subcraton. This misfit was interpreted and modeled as high-density lower crust which can possibly represent an underplated material. In the end, the new crustal model of Volga-Uralian subcraton respects the gravity and seismic constraints, and reflects the main geological features of the region. This model will be used for further geothermal analysis of the area.

    Optimierung von Methoden zur Standortcharakterisierung anhand passiver seismischer Messungen am Beispiel der Weserterrassen bei Hameln (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: Passive seismische Messungen des Umgebungsrauschens sind effektive und nicht-invasive Methoden, um die Struktur des lokalen Untergrunds und mögliche Verstärkungen seismischer Bodenbewegungen zu ermitteln. Liegt beispielsweise Lockersediment auf Festgestein auf, so kann dies bei seismischen Ereignissen eine verstärkende Wirkung auf die seismische Beanspruchung darüberliegender Gebäude haben. Um einen ersten Überblick über den Standort zu bekommen, wird mithilfe von Einzelstationsmessungen die Fundamentalfrequenz, mit welcher der Untergrund schwingt, ermittelt (H/V-Kurven). Liegt diese in einem ähnlichen Bereich wie die Resonanzfrequenzen von Gebäuden (ca. 1 - 10 Hz) wirkt dies verstärkend, sodass auch seismische Ereignisse mit geringer Magnitude eine erhöhte Einwirkung in Bezug auf Fühlbarkeit und Schäden zur Folge haben. Des Weiteren werden zur Erstellung eines Geschwindigkeit-Tiefen-Profils mehrere Stationen zu einem Array kombiniert. Aus den gemessenen Daten werden mittels einer hochauflösenden Frequenz-Wellenzahl-Analyse (hrFK) und einer räumlichen Autokorrelation (SPAC) Dispersionskurven ermittelt, welche die Phasengeschwindigkeiten von Oberflächenwellen in Abhängigkeit der Frequenz angeben. Die resultierenden Dispersionskurven werden am Ende invertiert, um das Geschwindigkeits-Tiefen-Profil für den lokalen Untergrund zu erhalten. Insgesamt wurden auf den Flussterrassen der Weser drei Array-Messungen an unterschiedlichen Standorten, sowie mehrere H/V-Messungen durchgeführt. Ziel ist es, eine bestmögliche Strategie sowohl für die Vorgehensweise bei den Messungen, als auch für die Auswertung der Daten zu entwickeln und eine bessere Eingrenzung der Tiefenprofile der S-Wellengeschwindigkeiten zu erreichen. So wurde bei der Auswertung der Daten unter anderem eine Trennung in Love- und Rayleigh-Wellen vorgenommen, um die Geschwindigkeitsprofile besser bestimmen zu können. In Zukunft sind zudem Tests mit Variationen der Array-Geometrien geplant, um zukünftige Messungen hinsichtlich Logistik, Messdauer und Personaleinsatz zu optimieren.

    Regional probabilistic seismic hazard assessment in Bangladesh (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: This presentation summarizes input data, procedures and results of probabilistic seismic hazard assessment (PSHA) in Bangladesh in the framework of the project ‘Geo information for Urban Planning and Adaptation to Climate Change’. It is a cooperation of the Geological Survey of Bangladesh (GSB) and the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) of Germany. The main aim of the project is to provide city planners with “Ground Suitability Maps”, which display different geo-factors. Seismic hazard is one of the geo-factors that contributes to these maps. For the derivation of “Ground Suitability Maps”, the influence of the local underground conditions will be taken into account additionally. A major part of Bangladesh is located in earthquake prone regions due to active tectonics. The Indian plate moves north-eastward towards the Eurasian plate at a velocity of about 6 cm/year. This motion leads to thrusting to the north (Himalaya) and to subduction to the east together with strike-slip mechanism. The thrusting and subduction processes have caused large historical earthquakes even inside Bangladesh (e.g. 1885 Bengal Earthquake M7 and 1918 Srimangal Earthquake M7.6). Therefore, it is crucial to assess seismic hazard in urban planning in Bangladesh. The input databases were compiled from the literature, reviewed and evaluated in this study. These are earthquake catalogs, the distribution of active faults and ground motion prediction equations. The most consistent and reliable databases were selected to be used in PSHA. The data of the earthquake catalog were declustered to eliminate the duplicated events, aftershocks and foreshocks. The spatial distribution of areal seismic sources was characterized using the distributions of earthquakes in the catalog and active faults. The completeness analysis of the earthquake catalog was performed and the Gutenberg-Richter magnitude recurrence distribution was derived for each seismic source. The results of PSHA are presented in the form of peak ground acceleration (PGA) maps with 10% exceedance probability in 50 years. As usual in regional PSHA, the results were compiled assuming bedrock as underground condition (so-called engineering bedrock with shear velocity of Vs30≥760 m/s). The northern and eastern parts of Bangladesh show the highest seismic hazard with PGA around 0.4 g with 10% exceedance probability in 50 years. This observation was expected because of the active tectonics in these parts.

    Anwendung des Ausschlusskriteriums „Seismische Aktivität“ bei der Suche und Auswahl eines Standorts für ein Endlager für hochradioaktive Abfälle in Deutschland (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: Im Standortauswahlgesetz wird in § 22 zum Ausschlusskriterium „Seismische Aktivität“ ausgeführt, dass ein Gebiet nicht als Endlagerstandort geeignet ist, wenn die örtliche seismische Gefährdung größer als in Erdbebenzone 1 nach DIN EN 1998-1/NA:2011-01 ist. Diese Norm wird in Kürze durch eine Aktualisierung ersetzt, die dem Stand von Wissenschaft und Technik entspricht. Der Entwurf hierzu, E DIN EN 1998-1/NA:2018-10, enthält keine Zuordnungen in Erdbebenzonen mehr, sondern weist die seismische Gefährdung räumlich kontinuierlich aus. Die Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe (BGR) hat im Auftrag der Bundesgesellschaft für Endlagerung einen Vorschlag zur Anwendung dieses Ausschlusskriteriums unter Verwendung von E DIN EN1998-1/NA:2018-10 erarbeitet. Die BGR schlägt vor, als Grenzwert zur Anwendung des Ausschlusskriteriums den Wert der spektralen Antwortbeschleunigung im Plateaubereich von 1,8 ms-2 in E DIN EN 1998-1/NA:2018-10 zu verwenden. Dieser Wert entspricht der makroseismischen Intensität 7, für den die seismische Gefährdung größer als in Erdbebenzone 1 nach DIN EN 1998-1/NA:2011-01 ist. Für Gebiete, in denen dieser Wert überschritten wird, gilt das Ausschlusskriterium als erfüllt. Grundsätzlich ist das Ausschlusskriterium „Seismische Aktivität“ im Standortauswahlgesetz jedoch wenig geeignet, um die Erdbebengefährdung eines Standortes für ein Endlager für hochradioaktive Abfälle zu ermitteln. Der Bewertungszeitraum für die Sicherheit des Endlagers beträgt eine Million Jahre und unterscheidet sich erheblich vom Betrachtungszeitraum von 50 Jahren der Norm DIN EN 1998-1/NA. Die Intensität bzw. die Beschleunigung gilt für die Erdoberfläche; die Endlagerung hochradioaktiver Abfälle soll jedoch in tiefen geologischen Formationen erfolgen. Neben der Gefährdung aufgrund von seismischen Bodenbewegungen als Bewertungsmaßstab des Ausschlusskriteriums hat eine andere Art der Gefährdung durch Erdbeben für Endlager in tiefen geologischen Formationen eine größere Bedeutung, nämlich bruchartige Verschiebungen im Endlagerbereich. Das Ausschlusskriterium „Seismische Aktivität“ bezieht sich im Unterschied zu allen anderen Ausschlusskriterien im Standortauswahlgesetz § 22 nicht auf ein wissenschaftlich formuliertes Merkmal, sondern auf eine Norm, deren Bemessungsgrößen aufgrund eines Kompromisses zwischen Sicherheitsbetrachtungen und wirtschaftlichen Überlegungen wie erhöhten Baukosten festgelegt wurden.

    New Small Aperture Broadband Arrays in the European Arctic (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: As part of the EPOS-Norway infrastructure project, NORSAR received funding from the Research Council of Norway for a new regional seismic array on Bjørnøya (Bear Island) in the European Arctic. After along planning phase, a six-element broadband array was installed by NORSAR staff in August 2019 and has been providing data to NORSAR in near real-time since then. Due to several logistical and administrative constraints the 6-element array has an aperture of only 300 m. All sites are equipped with Kinemetrics MBB-2 sensors and Earth Data EDR-209 digitizers that are installed in near-surface vaults. Data are automatically copied to the Norwegian node of the European Integrated Data Archive (EIDA) and are openly available. Due to environmental restrictions less than the planned 9 array sites could be installed on Bjørnøya and the non-used instruments are now available to extend the broadband station Hornsund (HSPB), Southern Spitsbergen, to another small aperture broadband array, also with 6 sites. The array installation had to be postponed because of the ongoing pandemic and is now planned for the Arctic summer 2021.

    Seismotectonic regions in Germany and adjacent areas - Concept and results (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: Seismotectonic regions are a basic input in seismic hazard assessment. Several seismotectonic zonations for Germany have been proposed in the past. We have developed a new regionalization based on the definition in the German Nuclear Safety Standard: “A seismotectonic unit is a region for which uniformity is assumed regarding seismic activity, geological structure and development and, in particular, regarding neotectonic conditions”. Our new concept aims for transparent implementation of geological criteria, which we initially analyze separately from seismicity. We strive for a better documentation and justification of the geological elements used to delimit seismotectonic regions, based on an analysis of the geological evolution in six time slices from the Permian (300 Ma) to the Present. The time slices are separated by marked changes in the tectonic regime and associated with the development of new fault systems or reactivation of existing ones. The present-day fault network comprises faults from all time slices. For each time slice, a subset of active faults has been extracted based on geological evidence for fault activity at that time. Uncertainties of these age assignments are documented. The fault subsets delimit regions of different strain intensity. The superposition of strain intensity distributions across all time slices identifies regions affected by polyphase deformation and regions nearly undeformed over geological time, potentially indicating areas of increased or reduced present-day seismic hazard. Our new zonation consists of fewer regions than earlier ones. The geological zonation correlates well with recent seismicity in areas of Cenozoic rifting and reasonably well with less frequent earthquakes in a belt affected by Mesozoic extension and contraction. However, a few stronger earthquake cluster in regions of low geological strain. The most prominent earthquake clusters (Swabian Jura, Vogtland / NW Bohemia) also defy a simple correlation with known geological structures.

    Description: Übertiefte Täler in den Alpen ermöglichen uns glaziale Sedimentation und somit einen Teil der quartären Klimageschichte zu verstehen. Reflexionsseimsik kann dabei verwendet werden, um punktuelle Bohrlochdaten in die Fläche zu projizieren oder eine potentielle Bohrlokation vorzuerkunden. Im Rahmen des ICDP-Projekts ‚Drilling Overdeepened Alpine Valleys‘ (DOVE) sollen eine Reihe von Bohrungen in alpinen, glazial-übertieften Tälern abgeteuft werden. Eine der Bohrungen soll 2021 in einem übertieften Tal des Rheingletschers bei Basadingen, nahe der deutsch-schweizerischen Grenze abgeteuft werden. In Zusammenarbeit mit der ETH Zürich, wurden zwei Profile im Abstand von ca. 500 m annähernd senkrecht zum Talverlauf aufgenommen. Das erste Profil ist 1246 m lang und bestand aus einer festen Auslage von 624 Geophonen. Das zweite Profil ist 1120 m lang und wurde mit 200 3-Komponenten-Geophonen im roll-along-Verfahren aufgenommen. Für beide Profile wurde bei jedem zweiten Geophon (zwei Meter Geophonabstand) mit einem hydraulischen 4-t Vibrator ein linearer 12-s-Sweep von 20-240 Hz angeregt. Beide seismischen Profile bilden ein asymmetrisches, übertieftes Becken mit ca. 260 m Tiefe ab, wobei der tiefste Bereich nur einen kleinen Teil des breiteren Hauptbeckens einnimmt. Die Auffüllung ist durch mindestens drei Diskordanzen, deutlichen Onlaps und Erosionshorizonten zwischen den Sedimenteinheiten gekennzeichnet. Wir interpretieren die Talfüllung als das Produkt eines hochdynamischen, sedimentären Systems. Der untere Teil, innerhalb des tiefsten Bereichs des Beckens, ist mit chaotisch abgelagerten Sedimenten gefüllt. Der Teil oberhalb einer Diskordanz enthält steil einfallende Reflektoren, die wahrscheinlich 20-30 m mächtige, progradierende Mäanderbanken einer glazial-fluviatilen Umgebung darstellen. Unterhalb des tiefsten Bereichs des Beckens sehen wir Versätze in Reflektoren, die auf Verwerfungen in der Tertiären Molasse hinweisen und mit bekannten Verwerfungen an der Oberfläche korrelieren. Wir vermuten, dass die Verwerfungen das Gestein geschwächt und somit die verstärkte Erosion an dieser Stelle gefördert haben.

    Constructing and validating a large-scale velocity-model for the North German Basin in Schleswig-Holstein and Hamburg – A part of the joint project TUNB (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: As a result of the joint project ‘Subsurface Potentials for Storage and Economic Use in the North German Basin’ (German acronym: TUNB) the Geological Surveys of Northern Germany and the Federal Institute for Geosciences and Natural Resources (BGR) finalized a coherent geological 3D-model of the deep subsurface of the North German Basin in early 2021. The model consists of 13 major base surfaces from Oligocene to Zechstein, fault surfaces and hull surfaces of salt diapirs. In the northwestern part it is based on the datasets of the Tectonic Atlas of NW-Germany (GTA) along with well and seismic data from the hydrocarbon industry. Additionally to modelling the onshore part of Schleswig-Holstein and Hamburg and insuring cross-border consistency to the neighboring federal states, the Geological Survey of Schleswig-Holstein (LLUR) reconstructed a 3D-large-scale velocity model based on previous work from Jaritz et al. (1991). Their velocity approach was developed within the GTA-project and is based on sonic-log and check-shot-velocities. It assumes a linear velocity increase, which is calculated from specific global gradients for different major lithostratigraphic layers and laterally varying starting-velocities. To validate the constructed 3D-velocity-model, its velocities were compared to velocities measured at boreholes by oil and gas companies. In general, a good agreement was found between modeled and measured data (deviation 〈 5%), in which the average velocities seemed to resemble the check-shot data more accurately than the interval velocities the sonic-log-measurements. In distinct locations, the velocity model was used to convert the newly constructed TUNB-horizons from the depth- to the time-domain in order to compare them to seismic sections. Whereas overall a good agreement between horizons and seismic reflectors was found, differences were identified especially in structural complex areas. Whether these can be attributed to earlier interpretations from the GTA, the modelling of the horizons or insufficiencies in the velocity-model has yet to be determined. A follow-up project to the TUNB-project is anticipated to start in early summer 2021. The goal of the project is to derive a consistent velocity model over large parts of the North German Basin. Main challenges will be integrating available borehole and seismic data into existing velocity-modelling approaches with a special focus on establishing cross border consistency to eastern federal states.

    Möglichkeiten und Grenzen der zerstörungsfreien Erfassung niedriger Feuchtegehalte in teilgesättigten Sandsteinen mit 1H-NMR (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: Die zerstörungsfreie Ermittlung der Materialfeuchte in Baustoffen ist für das Bauwesen von großer Bedeutung, denn ein erhöhter Feuchteeintrag kann zu Schimmelbildung, Alkali-Kieselsäure-Reaktionen, Korrosion etc. führen und somit ein hohes Schadenspotential mit sich bringen. Auch wenn zur qualitativen Lokalisierung möglicher Schad- und Risikostellen bereits zahlreiche zerstörungsfreie Verfahren in der Praxis Anwendung finden, besteht ein Mangel an quantitativen Verfahren, die auch bei niedrigen Feuchtegehalten sensitiv sind. Eine Methode zur zerstörungsfreien und quantitativen Bestimmung des Feuchtegehaltes und der effektiven Porosität ist die 1H-Kernspinresonzanzmethode (NMR). Da NMR sensitiv für die molekulare Beweglichkeit von Wasserstoffprotonen ist, lassen sich Informationen über die Bindungsform und -stärke sowie der Umgebung (Porengröße und Mineralzusammensetzung) der Wasserstoffprotonen gewinnen. Obwohl es bereits seit über 20 Jahren mobile NMR-Messeräte gibt, wird NMR heutzutage immer noch weitestgehend im Labor eingesetzt. Dies liegt daran, dass sie aufgrund der verwendeten Permanentmagnete schwer sind und nur äußerst geringe Eindringtiefen ermöglichen. In einer derzeit laufenden Forschungsarbeit wird deshalb ein speziell für Bohrkerne entworfener NMR-Tomograph eingesetzt. Mit seiner minimalen Echozeit von 50 µs lässt sich (abhängig von der Oberflächenrelaxivität) Wasser bis in nanometergroßen Poren erfassen. Um die Sensitivität von NMR bei Teilsättigung zu untersuchen, wurden verschiedene Sandsteinproben in Exsikkatoren mit relativen Luftfeuchten im Bereich von 33 % bis 96 % gelagert. Als Referenzen dienen zum einen das NMR-Signal bei Vollsättigung und zum anderen die Porengrößenverteilung aus Quecksilberporosimetriemessungen (MIP). Um die NMR-Sensitivität zu bewerten, wird die Korrelation der NMR-Amplitude mit den gravimetrisch ermittelten Feuchtegehalten sowie ein Vergleich der Porosität aus NMR und MIP betrachtet. Zu beachten ist in diesem Zusammenhang, dass sowohl die Reduzierung der Wasserfilmdicke als auch die Verkleinerung von Porengrößen zu einer ähnlichen Verkürzung der T2-Relaxationszeit führt. Als Ausblick wird ein Lösungsansatz vorgestellt, bei dem die NMR-Signale mit der Wasserfilmdickenberechnung basierend auf der relativen Luftfeuchte im Material korreliert werden.

    CAYMAN: Characterizing the crust using 2D & 3D seismic tomographic methods. (2021)
    Details
    Publication Date: 2022-12-01
    Description: About 25% of the Earth’s mid-ocean ridges spread at ultraslow rates of less than 20 mm/yr. However, most of these ultraslow spreading ridges are located in geographically remote areas, which hamper investigation. Consequently, how the crust forms and ages at such spreading centres, which traditional models predict to be magma-starved and cold, remains poorly understood. One of the most accessible ultra-slow spreading centres is the Mid Cayman Spreading Centre (MCSC), in the Caribbean Sea, with spreading rates of ~15-17 mm/yr. CAYSEIS project was proposed to survey the Cayman Trough area in order to obtain new data that constraints the nature of the crust, tectonic structures, lithologies outcropping and hydrothermal processes taking place in this area. Understanding the sub-seabed geophysical structure of the MCSC is key to understanding not only the lithologies and structures exposed at the seabed, but more fundamentally, how they are related at depth and what role hydrothermal fluid flow plays in the geodynamics of ultraslow spreading. CAYSEIS was a joint and multidisciplinary programme of German, British and US American top tier scientists designed for the obtaining of a new high-quality dataset, including 3D Wide-Angle Seismic (WAS), magnetic, gravimetric and seismological data. During the CAYMAN project, we took leverage of the CAYSEIS dataset to invert a 3D tomographic model of the Cayman Trough lithosphere using the Tomo3D code (Meléndez et al., 2015; 2019). This is one of the first times that the Tomo3D code is used for 3D inversion of real datasets. Thus, we are checking our results comparing them with tomographic inversions of 2D lines and testing the different parameters to obtain the more accurate and higher resolution model as possible. The results of this experiment will show not only the lithospheric structure along and across the MSCS, including the exhumed Ocean Core Complexes in the surrounding areas, but the 3D lithospheric configuration of the region which is important to understand the crustal formation processes and the evolution of ultra-slow spreading settings.
