Freestanding Silicon Photonic Ring and Disk Resonators

Niels Quack, Hamed Sattari, Alain Yuji Takabayashi, Yu Zhang

We report freestanding silicon photonic ring and disk resonators fabricated in a simplified silicon photonics process based on IMEC's iSiPP5OG standard platform that have been released by a custom MEMS post-processing step. Experimental results show high o ...

Implications of observation-enhanced energy-balance snowmelt simulations for runoff modeling of Alpine catchments

Alain Michel Prenleloup, Tobias Jonas

Snow is an important component of the water balance of many mountain watersheds worldwide. In a warming climate, snowmelt modeling and consequent soil water input, is often challenged by complex conditions such as rain-on-snow situations. This is why detai ...

A New Look at Civic Design: Park Systems in America

Matthew Skjonsberg

A New Look at Civic Design reflects on the nature of the various crises facing the very idea of democracy today, explicitly in relation to climate change - namely mass extinctions, water scarcity and overabundance, and in general widespread and increasing ...

Functional Peaks-Over-Threshold Analysis for Complex Extreme Events

Most current risk assessment for complex extreme events relies on catalogues of similar events, either historical or generated artificially. In the latter, no existing methods produce completely new events with mathematically justified extrapolation above ...

Two sides of the same coin: A population genetics perspective on lethal mutagenesis and mutational meltdown

Jeffrey David Jensen, Claudia Bank, Sebastian Matuszewski, Nicky Louise Ormond

The extinction of RNA virus populations upon application of a mutagenic drug is frequently referred to as evidence for the existence of an error threshold, above which the population cannot sustain the mutational load. To explain the extinction process aft ...

Angiopoietin-1 deficiency increases tumor metastasis in mice

Iacovos Michael

Background: Angipoietin-1 activation of the tyrosine kinase receptor Tek expressed mainly on endothelial cells leads to survival and stabilization of endothelial cells. Studies have shown that Angiopoietin-1 counteracts permeability induced by a number of ...

Correlated TEM-NanoSIMS investigation of foraminiferal metabolism

Charlotte Madeleine Nicole Lekieffre

Foraminifera are ubiquitous eukaryotic protists inhabiting all types of marine environments. The chemical and isotopic compositions of their carbonate tests are commonly used as proxies for paleo-environmental conditions. However, while foraminifera repres ...

Exponential extinction time of the contact process on finite graphs

Thomas Mountford, Daniel Rodrigues Valesin, Jean-Christophe Mourrat

We study the extinction time tau of the contact process started with full occupancy on finite trees of bounded degree. We show that, if the infection rate is larger than the critical rate for the contact process on Z, then, uniformly over all trees of degr ...

Quantifying Particle Numbers and Mass Flux in Drifting Snow

Michael Lehning, Enrico Paterna, Philip Crivelli

We compare two of the most common methods of quantifying mass flux, particle numbers and particle-size distribution for drifting snow events, the snow-particle counter (SPC), a laser-diode-based particle detector, and particle tracking velocimetry based on ...
