Sampling the Dynamical Properties of Northern Hemisphere Atmospheric Fields Over the Past 60 Years
Posted on
by
Solar radiation and the earth’s rotation are the primary drivers of large-scale atmospheric motions, while turbulence adds a layer of complexity at small scales. This picture is further complicated by ocean–land interactions, vegetation, anthropocentric forcing, and the hydrological cycle.

Summary of the Discussion on Large-Scale Atmospheric Extreme Weather Events in Stockholm
Posted on
by
Extreme, high-impact weather events have serious social and economic consequences, and have garnered widespread scientific and media attention. Understanding their drivers and improving their prediction is therefore a topic of crucial societal and economic value, where the interests of academia, policy makers […]

Empirical limits in the estimation of financial risk measures
Posted on
by
Following the financial crisis of 2007-2008, governments and financial regulators all over the globe pledged to reduce risk in the financial system. Many have raised capital requirements on banks, while others have tried to force financial institutions to be less opaque in […]

A Novel Model to Simulate Biological Cell Migration
Posted on
by
In recent years evidence has accumulated that single biological cells often move in a way that is unlike Brownian motion, a paradigmatic model of random dynamics. Instead, cells migrate faster and exhibit so-called superdiffusion. This article reports on a new method to […]

Comparison of shortest and fastest routes through cities reveals a structural typology of city development
Posted on
by
Much is known about the geometry of road networks within cities, and how these vary with city size and level of economic development. Less is known about how these structures influence the flows of people and activity within cities, and how that […]

New Mathematical Approach to Quantify Eigenvalue Fluctuations in Random Matrices
Posted on
by
Since the pioneering work of Wigner in the 50’s, random matrix theory has been playing a crucial role in the understanding of several problems in physics, such as the statistics of nuclear energies, quantum chaos and disordered electronic systems.
