The Transient and Intermittent Nature of Slow Slip
To first order, faults are locked while stress builds up to a devastating earthquake. However, we know that faults also slip slowly. After decades of geophysical observation, slow slip is now recognized as part of a continuum of transient deformation ...

How sensitive are Sahelian mesoscale convective systems to cold‐pool suppression?
Cold pools are a ubiquitous feature of mesoscale convective systems (MCSs) with important upscale impacts on West African climate, but their role in the maintenance of tropical MCSs remains debated. Using a 40‐day model with explicit convection and no rainfall evaporation, we show that cold pools do not play a primary role in Sahel MCS development or ...

This study analyzed the impact of two mesoscale cyclones on the meteorology and glaciology of South Shetland Islands (SSI) glaciers, using in‐situ observations, ERA5 reanalysis data, and high‐resolution weather and glacier mass balance models. Mesoscale cyclones drive temperature drops, heavy snowfall, and strong winds over the SSI, significantly ...

Open and Closed Loop Approaches for Energy Efficient Quantum Optimal Control
Concepts from quantum thermodynamics and optimal control are blended to derive a theoretical framework to quantify and minimize the energetic cost of a pulse for unitary synthesis. Two complementary techniques (based on GRAPE and Reinforce‐DRL) are implemented as open‐source software that co‐optimizes the fidelity and energetic cost within quantum ...

Post-Eruptive Inflation of Okmok Volcano, Alaska, from InSAR, 2008–2014
Okmok, a ~10-km wide caldera that occupies most of the northeastern end of Umnak Island, is one of the most active volcanoes in the Aleutian arc. The most recent eruption at Okmok during July–August 2008 was by far its largest and most explosive since at
