A depth-dependent deep learning ocean turbulent mixing parameterization scheme was proposed with the hydrological and microstructure observations conducted in summer 2012 in the shelf sea east of Hainan Island, in South China Sea(SCS). The deep neural network model is used and incorporates the Richardson number Ri, the normalized depth D, the horizontal velocity speed U, the shear S2, the stratification N2, and the density ρ as input parameters. Comparing to the scheme without parameter D and region division, the depth-dependent scheme improves the prediction of the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate ε. The correlation coefficient(r) between predicted and observed lgε increases from 0.49 to 0.62, and the root mean square error decreases from 0.56 to 0.48. Comparing to the traditional physics-driven parameterization schemes, such as the G89 and MG03, the data-driven approach achieves higher accuracy and generalization. The SHapley Additive Explanations(SHAP) framework analysis reveals the importance descending order of the input parameters as: ρ, D, U, N2, S2, and Ri in the whole depth, while D is most important in the upper and bottom boundary layers(D≤0.3&D≥0.65) and least important in middle layer(0.3<D<0.65). The research shows applicability of constructing deep learning-based ocean turbulent mixing parameterization schemes using limited observational data and well-established physical processes.展开更多

To further study the primary and secondary sources of OVOCs,their ambient levels were monitored using a proton-transfer reaction mass spectrometer(PTR-MS) at an urban site in the Pearl River Delta of China. Continuous monitoring campaigns were conducted in the spring, summer, fall, and winter of 2016. Among the six types of OVOC species, the mean concentrations of methanol were the highest in each season(up to 13–20 ppbv), followed by those of acetone, acetaldehyde and acetic acid(approximately 2–4 ppbv), while those of formic acid and methyl ethyl ketone(MEK) were the lowest(approximately 1–2 ppbv). As observed from a diurnal variation chart, the OVOCs observed in Shenzhen may have been affected by numerous factors such as their primary and secondary sources and photochemical consumption. The photochemical age-based parameterization method was used to apportion the sources of ambient OVOCs. Methanol had significant anthropogenic primary sources but negligible anthropogenic secondary sources during all of the seasons. Acetone, MEK and acetic acid were mostly attributed to anthropogenic primary sources during each season with smaller contributions from anthropogenic secondary sources. Acetaldehyde had similar contributions from both anthropogenic secondary and anthropogenic primary sources throughout the year.Meanwhile, anthropogenic primary sources contributed the most to formic acid.展开更多

On the subject of light scattering simulations, several classical computational approaches are reviewed, including the conventional geometric-optics method and its improved forms, the finite-difference time domain technique, the pseudo-spectral time domain technique, the discrete dipole approximation method, and the T-matrix method, with specific applications to the computation of the singlescattering properties of individual ice crystals. The strengths and weaknesses associated with each approach are discussed.With reference to remote sensing, operational retrieval algorithms are reviewed for retrieving cloud optical depth and effective particle size based on solar or thermal infrared(IR) bands. To illustrate the performance of the current solar- and IR-based retrievals, two case studies are presented based on spaceborne observations. The need for a more realistic ice cloud optical model to obtain spectrally consistent retrievals is demonstrated. Furthermore, to complement ice cloud property studies based on passive radiometric measurements, the advantage of incorporating lidar and/or polarimetric measurements is discussed.The performance of ice cloud models based on the use of different ice habits to represent ice particles is illustrated by comparing model results with satellite observations. A summary is provided of a number of parameterization schemes for ice cloud radiative properties that were developed for application to broadband radiative transfer submodels within general circulation models(GCMs). The availability of the single-scattering properties of complex ice habits has led to more accurate radiation parameterizations. In conclusion, the importance of using nonspherical ice particle models in GCM simulations for climate studies is proven.展开更多

Particularly, key parameters and parameterization schemes in desert regions need to be evaluated in-situ to improve the models. In this study, we calibrated the land-surface key parameters and evaluated several formulations or schemes for thermal roughness length (z 0h ) in the common land model (CoLM). Our parameter calibration and scheme evaluation were based on the observed data during a torrid summer (29 July to 11 September 2009) over the Taklimakan Desert hinterland. First, the importance of the key parameters in the experiment was evaluated based on their physics principles and the significance of these key parameters were further validated using sensitivity test. Second, difference schemes (or physics-based formulas) of z 0h were adopted to simulate the variations of energy-related variables (e.g., sensible heat flux and surface skin temperature) and the simulated variations were then compared with the observed data. Third, the z 0h scheme that performed best (i.e., Y07) was then selected to replace the defaulted one (i.e., Z98); the revised scheme and the superiority of Y07 over Z98 was further demonstrated by comparing the simulated results with the observed data. Admittedly, the revised model did a relatively poor job of simulating the diurnal variations of surface soil heat flux, and nighttime soil temperature was also underestimated, calling for further improvement of the model for desert regions.展开更多

First, the characteristics of Monin-Obukhov similarity functions are analyzed and their empirical formulae are fitted. The results show that fitted curves of changes of similarity functions of wind speed and temperature with stability parameter differ little from the typical empirical curves and are within the ranges of scatter of the empirical curves, but their values in the neutral condition arc different from the typical values to some extent. Furthermore, average values of momentum and scalar (sensible heat) roughness lengths as well as changes of scalar roughness length with friction velocity are determined by utilizing the data. It is found that the average values of scalar roughness length are about one order smaller than that of the momentum roughness length and decrease with increasing friction velocity, but they are evidently larger than their theoretically forecasted values.展开更多

摘要Accurate parameter extraction of photovoltaic(PV)models plays a critical role in enabling precise performance prediction,optimal system sizing,and effective operational control under diverse environmental conditions.While a wide range of metaheuristic optimisation techniques have been applied to this problem,many existing methods are hindered by slow convergence rates,susceptibility to premature stagnation,and reduced accuracy when applied to complex multi-diode PV configurations.These limitations can lead to suboptimal modelling,reducing the efficiency of PV system design and operation.In this work,we propose an enhanced hybrid optimisation approach,the modified Spider Wasp Optimization(mSWO)with Opposition-Based Learning algorithm,which integrates the exploration and exploitation capabilities of the Spider Wasp Optimization(SWO)metaheuristic with the diversityenhancing mechanism of Opposition-Based Learning(OBL).The hybridisation is designed to dynamically expand the search space coverage,avoid premature convergence,and improve both convergence speed and precision in highdimensional optimisation tasks.The mSWO algorithm is applied to three well-established PV configurations:the single diode model(SDM),the double diode model(DDM),and the triple diode model(TDM).Real experimental current-voltage(I-V)datasets from a commercial PV module under standard test conditions(STC)are used for evaluation.Comparative analysis is conducted against eighteen advanced metaheuristic algorithms,including BSDE,RLGBO,GWOCS,MFO,EO,TSA,and SCA.Performance metrics include minimum,mean,and maximum root mean square error(RMSE),standard deviation(SD),and convergence behaviour over 30 independent runs.The results reveal that mSWO consistently delivers superior accuracy and robustness across all PV models,achieving the lowest RMSE values of 0.000986022(SDM),0.000982884(DDM),and 0.000982529(TDM),with minimal SD values,indicating remarkable repeatability.Convergence analyses further show that mSWO reaches optimal solutions more rapidly and with fewer oscillations than all competing methods,with the performance gap widening as model complexity increases.These findings demonstrate that mSWO provides a scalable,computationally efficient,and highly reliable framework for PV parameter extraction.Its adaptability to models of growing complexity suggests strong potential for broader applications in renewable energy systems,including performance monitoring,fault detection,and intelligent control,thereby contributing to the optimisation of next-generation solar energy solutions.

摘要The Hengduan Mountains are susceptible to hydrological disasters,with precipitation representing a significant risk factor.For effective disaster mitigation strategies,accurate rainfall simulation is essential,typically achieved through the use of numerical models.Some research has indicated that using a convection-permitting model(CPM)at high resolution(<4 km)could provide more precise rainfall estimates than traditional cumulus parameterization schemes(CPs)at lower resolutions,but CPM demands substantial computational resources.Therefore,to assess whether CPM maintains superior simulation accuracy,this study employed the Weather Research and Forecasting(WRF)model to simulate summer precipitation over the Hengduan Mountains in 2009,comparing CPM(4 km)and CPs(10 km)resolutions.The simulations were evaluated against satellite observations to quantify their performance differences.The results showed that all simulations overestimated amounts and frequency.The CPM outperformed most CPs,except the Tiedtke scheme,which exhibited Root Mean Square Errors(RMSEs)of 2.51 mm·day-1 for amount and 5.63%for frequency.The CPM had slightly higher RMSEs of 2.80 mm·day-1 and 6.98%,respectively.Both CPM and Tiedtke captured the spatial distribution of precipitation,but overestimations occurred in central and southern regions and underestimations in river valleys.While Tiedtke demonstrated superiority in various aspects,CPM provided more detail.Additionally,the study noted significant differences in diurnal variation at intermediate altitudes and found correlations between rainfall amounts and convective available potential energy(CAPE),frequency,and outgoing longwave radiation(OLR),respectively.Consequently,the Tiedtke scheme is suggested as a more resource-efficient alternative to CPM for simulating precipitation in the Hengduan Mountains.

摘要Accurate descriptions of cloud droplet spectra from aerosol activation to vapor condensation using microphysical parameterization schemes are crucial for numerical simulations of precipitation and climate change in weather forecasting and climate prediction models.Hence,the latest activation and triple-moment condensation schemes were combined to simulate and analyze the evolution characteristics of a cloud droplet spectrum from activation to condensation and compared with a high-resolution Lagrangian bin model and the current double-moment condensation schemes,in which the spectral shape parameter is fixed or diagnosed by an empirical formula.The results demonstrate that the latest schemes effectively capture the evolution characteristics of the cloud droplet spectrum during activation and condensation,which is in line with the performance of the bin model.The simulation of the latest activation and condensation schemes in a parcel model shows that the cloud droplet spectrum gradually widens and exhibits a multimodal distribution during the activation process,accompanied by a decrease in the spectral shape and slope parameters over time.Conversely,during the condensation process,the cloud droplet spectrum gradually narrows,resulting in increases in the spectral shape and slope parameters.However,these double-moment schemes fail to accurately replicate the evolution of the cloud droplet spectrum and its multimodal distribution characteristics.Furthermore,the latest schemes were coupled into a 1.5D cumulus model,and an observation case was simulated.The simulations confirm that the cloud droplet spectrum appears wider at the supersaturated cloud base and cloud top due to activation,while it becomes narrower at the middle altitudes of the cloud due to condensation growth.

摘要A modified three-dimensional turbulence parameterization scheme,implemented by replacing the conventional eddydiffusivity formulation with the H-gradient model,has shown good performance in representing the subgrid-scale(SGS)turbulent fluxes associated with convective clouds in idealized tropical cyclone(TC)simulations.To evaluate the capability of the modified scheme in simulating real TCs,two sets of simulations of TC Soudelor(2015),one with the modified scheme and the other with the original scheme,are conducted.Comparisons with observations and coarse-grained results from large eddy simulation benchmarks demonstrate that the modified scheme improves the forecasting of the intensity and structure,as well as the SGS turbulent fluxes of Soudelor.Using the modified turbulence scheme,a TC with stronger intensity,smaller size,a shallower but stronger inflow layer,and a more intense but less inclined convective updraft is simulated.The rapid intensification process and secondary eyewall features can also be captured better by the modified scheme.By analyzing the mechanism by which turbulent transport impacts the intensity and structure of TCs,it is shown that accurately representing the turbulent transport associated with convective clouds above the planetary boundary layer helps to initiate the TC spin-up process.

摘要Mesoscale eddies play a pivotal role in deciphering the intricacies of ocean dynamics and the transport of heat,salt,and nutrients.Accurate representation of these eddies in ocean models is essential for improving model predictions.In this study,we propose a convolutional neural network(CNN)that combines data-driven techniques with physical principles to develop a robust and interpretable parameterization scheme for mesoscale eddies in ocean modeling.We use a highresolution reanalysis dataset to extract subgrid eddy momentum and then applying machine learning algorithms to identify patterns and correlations.To ensure physical consistency,we have introduced conservation of momentum constraints in our CNN parameterization scheme through soft and hard constraints.The interpretability analysis illustrate that the pre-trained CNN parameterization shows promising results in accurately solving the resolved mean velocity and effectively capturing the representation of unresolved subgrid turbulence processes.Furthermore,to validate the CNN parameterization scheme offline,we conduct simulations using the Massachusetts Institute of Technology general circulation model(MITgcm)ocean model.A series of experiments is conducted to compare the performance of the model with the CNN parameterization scheme and high-resolution simulations.The offline validation demonstrates the effectiveness of the CNN parameterization scheme in improving the representation of mesoscale eddies in the MITgcm ocean model.Incorporating the CNN parameterization scheme leads to better agreement with high-resolution simulations and a more accurate representation of the kinetic energy spectra.
摘要In popular Baba-Engle-Kraft-Kroner(BEKK)and dynamic conditional correlation(DCC)multivariate generalized autoregressive conditional heteroskedasticity models,the large number of parameters and the requirement of positive definiteness of the covariance and correlation matrices pose some difficulties during the estimation process.To avoid these issues,we propose two modifications to the BEKK and DCC models that employ two spherical parameterizations applied to the Cholesky decompositions of the covariance and correlation matrices.In their full specifications,the introduced Cholesky-BEKK and Cholesky-DCC models allow for a reduction in the number of parameters compared with their traditional counterparts.Moreover,the application of spherical transformation does not require the imposition of inequality constraints on the parameters during the estimation.An application to two crude oils,WTI and Brent,and the main exchange rate prices demonstrates that the Cholesky-BEKK and Cholesky-DCC models can capture the dynamics of covariances and correlations.In addition,the Kupiec test on different portfolio compositions confirms the satisfactory performance of the proposed models.

摘要In recent years,the study of chalcopyrite and pyrite flotation surfaces using computational chemistry methods has made significant progress.However,current computational methods are limited by the small size of their systems and insufficient consideration of hydration and temperature effects,making it difficult to fully replicate the real flotation environment of chalcopyrite and pyrite.In this study,we employed the self-consistent charge density functional tight-binding(SCC-DFTB)parameterization method to develop a parameter set,CuFeOrg,which includes the interactions between Cu-Fe-C-H-O-N-S-P-Zn elements,to investigate the surface interactions in large-scale flotation systems of chalcopyrite and pyrite.The results of bulk modulus,atomic displacement,band structure,surface relaxation,surface Mulliken charge distribution,and adsorption tests of typical flotation reagents on mineral surfaces demonstrate that CuFeOrg achieves DFT-level accuracy while significantly outperforming DFT in computational efficiency.By constructing large-scale hydration systems of mineral surfaces,as well as large-scale systems incorporating the combined interactions of mineral surfaces,flotation reagents,and hydration,we more realistically reproduce the actual flotation environment.Furthermore,the dynamic analysis results are consistent with mineral surface contact angle experiments.Additionally,CuFeOrg lays the foundation for future studies of more complex and diverse chalcopyrite and pyrite flotation surface systems.

摘要Existing traditional ocean vertical-mixing schemes are empirically developed without a thorough understanding of the physical processes involved,resulting in a discrepancy between the parameterization and forecast results.The uncertainty in ocean-mixing parameterization is primarily responsible for the bias in ocean models.Benefiting from deep-learning technology,we design the Adaptive Fully Connected Module with an Inception module as the baseline to minimize bias.It adaptively extracts the best features through fully connected layers with different widths,and better learns the nonlinear relationship between input variables and parameterization fields.Moreover,to obtain more accurate results,we impose KPP(K-Profile Parameterization)and PP(Pacanowski–Philander)schemes as physical constraints to make the network parameterization process follow the basic physical laws more closely.Since model data are calculated with human experience,lacking some unknown physical processes,which may differ from the actual data,we use a decade-long time record of hydrological and turbulence observations in the tropical Pacific Ocean as training data.Combining physical constraints and a nonlinear activation function,our method catches its nonlinear change and better adapts to the oceanmixing parameterization process.The use of physical constraints can improve the final results.

摘要The uncertainty of ocean turbulent mixing parameterization comprises a significant challenge in ocean and climate models. A depth-dependent deep learning ocean turbulent mixing parameterization scheme was proposed with the hydrological and microstructure observations conducted in summer 2012 in the shelf sea east of Hainan Island, in South China Sea(SCS). The deep neural network model is used and incorporates the Richardson number Ri, the normalized depth D, the horizontal velocity speed U, the shear S2, the stratification N2, and the density ρ as input parameters. Comparing to the scheme without parameter D and region division, the depth-dependent scheme improves the prediction of the turbulent kinetic energy dissipation rate ε. The correlation coefficient(r) between predicted and observed lgε increases from 0.49 to 0.62, and the root mean square error decreases from 0.56 to 0.48. Comparing to the traditional physics-driven parameterization schemes, such as the G89 and MG03, the data-driven approach achieves higher accuracy and generalization. The SHapley Additive Explanations(SHAP) framework analysis reveals the importance descending order of the input parameters as: ρ, D, U, N2, S2, and Ri in the whole depth, while D is most important in the upper and bottom boundary layers(D≤0.3&D≥0.65) and least important in middle layer(0.3<D<0.65). The research shows applicability of constructing deep learning-based ocean turbulent mixing parameterization schemes using limited observational data and well-established physical processes.

摘要Achieving high-resolution intracranial imaging in a safe and portable manner is critical for the diagnosis of intracranial diseases,preoperative planning of craniotomies and intraoperative management during craniotomy procedures.Adaptive waveform inversion(AWI),a variant of full waveform inversion(FWI),has shown potential in intracranial ultrasound imaging.However,the robustness of AWI is affected by the parameterization of the Gaussian penalty matrix and the challenges posed by transcranial scenarios.Conventional AWI struggles to produce accurate images in these cases,limiting its application in critical medical settings.To address these issues,we propose a stabilized adaptive waveform inversion(SAWI)method,which introduces a user-defined zero-lag position for theWiener filter.Numerical experiments demonstrate that SAWI can achieve accurate imaging under Gaussian penalty matrix parameter settings where AWI fails,perform successful transcranial imaging in configurations where AWI cannot,and maintain the same imaging accuracy as AWI.The advantage of this method is that it achieves these advancements without modifying the AWI framework or increasing computational costs,which helps to promote the application of AWI in medical fields,particularly in transcranial scenarios.

摘要In this study,we introduce a deep generative model,named Multi-Species Generative Adversarial Network(MS-GAN),which is developed to extract the low-dimensional manifold of three-dimensional multi-species surfaces.In the development of MS-GAN,we extend the freeform deformation by incorporating principal component analysis to increase the non-linear deformation ability while maintaining geometric smoothness.The implicit information of multiple baselines is embedded in the feature extraction layers,to enhance the diversity and parameterization of multi-species dataset.Furthermore,Wasserstein GAN with a gradient penalty is used to ensure the stability and convergence of the training networks.Two experiments,ruled surfaces and propeller blade surfaces,are performed to demonstrate the advantages and superiorities of MS-GAN.

摘要In the domain of knowledge graph embedding,conventional approaches typically transform entities and relations into continuous vector spaces.However,parameter efficiency becomes increasingly crucial when dealing with large-scale knowledge graphs that contain vast numbers of entities and relations.In particular,resource-intensive embeddings often lead to increased computational costs,and may limit scalability and adaptability in practical environ-ments,such as in low-resource settings or real-world applications.This paper explores an approach to knowledge graph representation learning that leverages small,reserved entities and relation sets for parameter-efficient embedding.We introduce a hierarchical attention network designed to refine and maximize the representational quality of embeddings by selectively focusing on these reserved sets,thereby reducing model complexity.Empirical assessments validate that our model achieves high performance on the benchmark dataset with fewer parameters and smaller embedding dimensions.The ablation studies further highlight the impact and contribution of each component in the proposed hierarchical attention structure.

摘要Oxygenated volatile organic compounds(OVOCs) are key intermediates in the atmospheric photooxidation process. To further study the primary and secondary sources of OVOCs,their ambient levels were monitored using a proton-transfer reaction mass spectrometer(PTR-MS) at an urban site in the Pearl River Delta of China. Continuous monitoring campaigns were conducted in the spring, summer, fall, and winter of 2016. Among the six types of OVOC species, the mean concentrations of methanol were the highest in each season(up to 13–20 ppbv), followed by those of acetone, acetaldehyde and acetic acid(approximately 2–4 ppbv), while those of formic acid and methyl ethyl ketone(MEK) were the lowest(approximately 1–2 ppbv). As observed from a diurnal variation chart, the OVOCs observed in Shenzhen may have been affected by numerous factors such as their primary and secondary sources and photochemical consumption. The photochemical age-based parameterization method was used to apportion the sources of ambient OVOCs. Methanol had significant anthropogenic primary sources but negligible anthropogenic secondary sources during all of the seasons. Acetone, MEK and acetic acid were mostly attributed to anthropogenic primary sources during each season with smaller contributions from anthropogenic secondary sources. Acetaldehyde had similar contributions from both anthropogenic secondary and anthropogenic primary sources throughout the year.Meanwhile, anthropogenic primary sources contributed the most to formic acid.

摘要Presented is a review of the radiative properties of ice clouds from three perspectives: light scattering simulations, remote sensing applications, and broadband radiation parameterizations appropriate for numerical models. On the subject of light scattering simulations, several classical computational approaches are reviewed, including the conventional geometric-optics method and its improved forms, the finite-difference time domain technique, the pseudo-spectral time domain technique, the discrete dipole approximation method, and the T-matrix method, with specific applications to the computation of the singlescattering properties of individual ice crystals. The strengths and weaknesses associated with each approach are discussed.With reference to remote sensing, operational retrieval algorithms are reviewed for retrieving cloud optical depth and effective particle size based on solar or thermal infrared(IR) bands. To illustrate the performance of the current solar- and IR-based retrievals, two case studies are presented based on spaceborne observations. The need for a more realistic ice cloud optical model to obtain spectrally consistent retrievals is demonstrated. Furthermore, to complement ice cloud property studies based on passive radiometric measurements, the advantage of incorporating lidar and/or polarimetric measurements is discussed.The performance of ice cloud models based on the use of different ice habits to represent ice particles is illustrated by comparing model results with satellite observations. A summary is provided of a number of parameterization schemes for ice cloud radiative properties that were developed for application to broadband radiative transfer submodels within general circulation models(GCMs). The availability of the single-scattering properties of complex ice habits has led to more accurate radiation parameterizations. In conclusion, the importance of using nonspherical ice particle models in GCM simulations for climate studies is proven.

摘要Improving and validating land surface models based on integrated observations in deserts is one of the challenges in land modeling. Particularly, key parameters and parameterization schemes in desert regions need to be evaluated in-situ to improve the models. In this study, we calibrated the land-surface key parameters and evaluated several formulations or schemes for thermal roughness length (z 0h ) in the common land model (CoLM). Our parameter calibration and scheme evaluation were based on the observed data during a torrid summer (29 July to 11 September 2009) over the Taklimakan Desert hinterland. First, the importance of the key parameters in the experiment was evaluated based on their physics principles and the significance of these key parameters were further validated using sensitivity test. Second, difference schemes (or physics-based formulas) of z 0h were adopted to simulate the variations of energy-related variables (e.g., sensible heat flux and surface skin temperature) and the simulated variations were then compared with the observed data. Third, the z 0h scheme that performed best (i.e., Y07) was then selected to replace the defaulted one (i.e., Z98); the revised scheme and the superiority of Y07 over Z98 was further demonstrated by comparing the simulated results with the observed data. Admittedly, the revised model did a relatively poor job of simulating the diurnal variations of surface soil heat flux, and nighttime soil temperature was also underestimated, calling for further improvement of the model for desert regions.

摘要The parameterization of surface turbulent fluxes over the Gobi Desert in arid regions is studied by using rationally screened observational data. First, the characteristics of Monin-Obukhov similarity functions are analyzed and their empirical formulae are fitted. The results show that fitted curves of changes of similarity functions of wind speed and temperature with stability parameter differ little from the typical empirical curves and are within the ranges of scatter of the empirical curves, but their values in the neutral condition arc different from the typical values to some extent. Furthermore, average values of momentum and scalar (sensible heat) roughness lengths as well as changes of scalar roughness length with friction velocity are determined by utilizing the data. It is found that the average values of scalar roughness length are about one order smaller than that of the momentum roughness length and decrease with increasing friction velocity, but they are evidently larger than their theoretically forecasted values.
