Fuzzy postprocessing of seasonal climate forecasts for semiarid river basins

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
Meteorological forecasts from AI‐based fuzzy rule‐based system (FRB) are compared to linear scaling (LS) and quantile mapping (QM). Seasonal forecasts from the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) are considered. Results show that the highest skill is achieved for the FRB approach.

Unravelling indoor temperature response to summer heat through long‐term crowdsourced observations in Dutch residences

open access: yesQuarterly Journal of the Royal Meteorological Society, EarlyView.
This study analysed and modelled summertime indoor temperature dynamics in the Netherlands using a unique long‐term crowdsourced dataset from seven residences (spanning 2–27 years). Indoor temperatures were found to rise and cool more slowly than outdoors (mean 260 minute lag), with heatwave signals persisting about five days.

Sonified Signals From a Compact FT‐ICR Instrument: A Feasibility Study. I—Data Mapping to an Equal‐Tempered Chromatic Scale

open access: yesRapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Rationale Ions trapped within a Penning cell (ICR) travel periodic orbits whose frequencies are dependent on their mass‐to‐charge ratio and the value of the magnetic field passing through the trap. Fourier transformation (FT‐ICR) decomposes the signal induced in the detection circuit by the rotation of the ions in the cell after the ...

Hydrodynamics of the t-PNG model via a colored t-PNG model

open access: yesAnnales de l'Institut Henri Poincaré, Probabilités et Statistiques
The $t$-PNG model introduced in Aggarwal, Borodin, and Wheeler (2021) is a deformed version of the polynuclear growth (PNG) model. In this paper, we prove the hydrodynamic limit of the model using soft techniques. One key element of the proof is the construction of a colored version of the $t$-PNG model, which allows us to apply the superadditive ...

Embracing the Complexity of Integrating Computational Thinking in Education Using Rich Pictures

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Computational thinking (CT) is a fundamental cognitive skill that provides a problem‐solving approach applicable across various domains. Integrating CT into K–12 education is crucial for developing the competencies that students need; however, its implementation presents significant challenges. While most research on CT has focused on specific

Systemic Governance From Below: Story Telling to Empower Access to the Commons Through Mapping and Modelling: A Mixed Methods Approach

open access: yesSystems Research and Behavioral Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Access to forests, farming land and the Citarum river is limited in Tarumajaya; furthermore, many do not own their own housing and are dependent on the public and private landowners in the area. The region of Tarumajaya faces significant challenges in access to crucial resources such as forests, farming land and the Citarum river, leading to a
