  • Water temperature, acoustic travel time, pressure and currents taken by current and pressure recording inverted echo sounders as part of QUICCHE in the Southeast Atlantic Ocean (limit-20 W) from 2023-03-17 to 2024-04-03 (NCEI Accession 0301731)
Title: Water temperature, acoustic travel time, pressure and currents taken by current and pressure recording inverted echo sounders as part of QUICCHE in the Southeast Atlantic Ocean (limit-20 W) from 2023-03-17 to 2024-04-03 (NCEI Accession 0301731)
The goal of QUantifying Interocean fluxes in the Cape Cauldron Hotspot of Eddy kinetic energy (QUICCHE) was to observe mixing and stirring in the Cape Basin in the southeast Atlantic Ocean across time and space scales ranging from seconds to months and from centimeters to tens of kilometers using a variety of sensors and platforms. As part of QUICCHE, two inverted echo sounders equipped with bottom pressure gauges and current meters (CPIES) were deployed at sites designated CP01 and CP02 at 4676 and 4895 m depth respectively, from March 2023 to April 2024. The CPIES data are the highest quality versions with the least amount of processing. The collection and processing of the data are described in the report provided. Data are in NetCDF.  more » « less

    Processing-in-memory (PIM) architectures attempt to overcome the von Neumann bottleneck by combining computation and storage logic into a single component. The content-addressable parallel processing paradigm (CAPP) from the seventies is an in-situ PIM architecture that leverages content-addressable memories to realize bit-serial arithmetic and logic operations, via sequences of search and update operations over multiple memory rows in parallel. In this paper, we set out to investigate whether the concepts behind classic CAPP can be used successfully to build an entirely CMOS-based, general-purpose microarchitecture that can deliver manyfold speedups while remaining highly programmable. We conduct a full-stack design of a Content-Addressable Processing Engine (CAPE), built out of dense push-rule 6T SRAM arrays. CAPE is programmable using the RISC-V ISA with standard vector extensions. Our experiments show that CAPE achieves an average speedup of 14 (up to 254) over an area-equivalent (slightly under 9mm^2 at 7nm) out-of-order processor core with three levels of caches.

    Emergence of beavers as ecosystem engineers in the New Arctic project focuses on establishing field sites at tundra beaver ponds to study the implications of beaver engineering on hydrology and permafrost. Drones are being used to collect baseline data and track beaver dam building and pond evolution over time. This dataset consists of a multispectral orthomosaic derived from drone surveys on 03 August 2021 at the Swan Lake Drained Lake Basin, MP64, site on the Seward Peninsula, Alaska. 1998 digital images from five spectral bands were acquired from a DJI Phantom 4 Real-Time Kinematic (DJI P4RTK) quadcopter with a DJI D-RTK 2 Mobile Base Station. The mapped area was around 27 hectares (ha). The drone system was flown at 120 meters (m) above ground level (agl) and images were captured using the hover and capture at point mode. The orientation of the camera was set to 90 degrees (i.e. looking straight down). The along-track overlap and across-track overlap of the mission were set at 80% and 70%, respectively. All images were processed in the software Pix4D Mapper (v. 4.6.4) using the standard 3D Maps workflow and the accurate geolocation and orientation calibration method to produce the multispectral orthophoto mosaic at a spatial resolution of 10 centimeters (cm). Images of a MicaSense calibrated reflectance panel were used for radiometric processing and calibration of each spectral band in the Index Calculator in Pix4D. A Leica Viva differential global positioning system (GPS) provided ground control for the mission and the data were post-processed to WGS84 UTM Zone 3 North.

    Abstract Convective available potential energy (CAPE), a metric associated with severe weather, is expected to increase with warming, but we have lacked a framework that describes its changes in the populated midlatitudes. In the tropics, theory suggests mean CAPE should rise following the Clausius–Clapeyron (C–C) relationship at ∼6%/K. In the heterogeneous midlatitudes, where the mean change is less relevant, we show that CAPE changes are larger and can be well‐described by a simple framework based on moist static energy surplus, which is robust across climate states. This effect is highly general and holds across both high‐resolution nudged regional simulations and free‐running global climate models. The simplicity of this framework means that complex distributional changes in future CAPE can be well‐captured by a simple scaling of present‐day data using only three parameters.

    Abstract Light–moderate precipitation is projected to decrease whereas heavy precipitation may increase under greenhouse gas (GHG)-induced global warming, while atmospheric convective available potential energy (CAPE) over most of the globe and convective inhibition (CIN) over land are projected to increase. The underlying processes for these precipitation changes are not fully understood. Here, projected precipitation changes are analyzed using 3-hourly data from simulations by a fully coupled climate model, and their link to the CAPE and CIN changes is examined. The model approximately captures the spatial patterns in the mean precipitation frequencies and the significant correlation between the precipitation frequencies or intensity and CAPE over most of the globe or CIN over tropical oceans seen in reanalysis, and it projects decreased light–moderate precipitation (0.01 < P ≤ 1 mm h −1 ) but increased heavy precipitation ( P > 1 mm h −1 ) in a warmer climate. Results show that most of the light–moderate precipitation events occur under low-CAPE and/or low-CIN conditions, which are projected to decrease greatly in a warmer climate as increased temperature and humidity shift many of such cases into moderate–high CAPE or CIN cases. This results in large decreases in the light–moderate precipitation events. In contrast, increases in heavy precipitation result primarily from its increased probability under given CAPE and CIN, with a secondary contribution from the CAPE/CIN frequency changes. The increased probability for heavy precipitation partly results from a shift of the precipitation histogram toward higher intensity that could result from a uniform percentage increase in precipitation intensity due to increased water vapor in a warmer climate.

    Abstract The Radiative‐Convective Equilibrium Model Intercomparison Project (RCEMIP) exhibits a large spread in the simulated climate across models, including in profiles of buoyancy and relative humidity. Here we use simple theory to understand the control of stability, relative humidity, and their responses to warming. Across the RCEMIP ensemble, temperature profiles are systematically cooler than a moist adiabat, and convective available potential energy (CAPE) increases with warming at a rate greater than that expected from the Clausius‐Clapeyron relation. There is higher CAPE (greater instability) in models that are on average moister in the lower‐troposphere. To more explicitly evaluate the drivers of the intermodel spread, we use simple theory to estimate values of entrainment and precipitation efficiency (PE) given the simulated values of CAPE and lower‐tropospheric relative humidity. We then decompose the intermodel spread in CAPE and relative humidity (and their responses to warming) into contributions from variability in entrainment, PE, the temperature of the convecting top, and the inverse water vapor scale height. Model‐to‐model variation in entrainment is a dominant source of intermodel spread in CAPE and its changes with warming, while variation in PE is the dominant source of intermodel spread in relative humidity. We also decompose the magnitude of the CAPE increase with warming and find that atmospheric warming itself contributes most strongly to the CAPE increase, but the indirect effect of increases in the water vapor scale height with warming also contribute to increasing CAPE beyond that expected from Clausius‐Clapeyron.
