SEMINAR LOCATION: EOA 1044 (speaker remote) SPEAKER: Prof. John Allen TITLE: Severe Convective Storms: Local problems with global connections ABSTRACT: Severe thunderstorms are a local phenomena found globally, and produce a variety of hazards that include hail, tornadoes, damaging winds, lightning and heavy precipitation. In the present climate, these events produce large losses to property and life. The warming climate is expected to influence these storms, primarily through increasing thermodynamic instability as atmospheric moisture scales with warming near-surface temperatures. However, while a number of studies have explored how the climate system modulates these hazards, the focus has disproportionately favored North America and Europe. This presents a challenge, as many parts of the world that regularly experience severe thunderstorms exist in different climate regimes or latitudes which exhibit non-linear responses to the warming climate. Hence what is known for these regions does not reflect a complete picture of the expected changes to hazards. This presentation will share new insights into the frequency at which environments favorable to severe convection occur globally through the use of atmospheric reanalyses, and discuss how these environments change in response to both climate variability and change as projected using the latest generation of Coupled-Model Intercomparison Project Version 6 (CMIP6) data. Through these insights, the presentation will address the importance of mutually-collaborative international partnerships to emphasize the contributions of local expert knowledge, engaging stakeholders and encouraging the sharing of new tools to facilitate generating environmental profiles for vast arrays of data. We look forward to seeing you this Thursday! Cheers, Allison On behalf of the MET Seminar Committee -------------------------------------------- Allison A.

All are welcome to attend. https://fsu.zoom.us/j/94273595552 Meeting # 942 7359 5552 Wednesday, Nov 9th, 2022, Schedule: * 3:00 to 3:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) Nespresso & Teatime (in 417 DSL Commons) * 3:30 to 4:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) Colloquium - Attend F2F (in 499 DSL) or Virtually (via Zoom) Abstract: Deep learning is having a profound impact on scientific research. Yet, while deep neural networks continue to show impressive performance in a wide variety of fields, including scientific computing, their mathematical foundations are far from being well established. In this talk, we will present recent developments in this area by illustrating two case studies. First, motivated by applications in cognitive science, we will present ?rating impossibility" theorems. These theorems identify frameworks where neural networks are provably unable to generalize outside the training set while performing the seemingly simple task of learning identity effects, i.e. classifying pairs of objects as identical or not. Second, motivated by applications in scientific computing, we will illustrate ?practical existence" theorems. These theorems combine universal approximation results for deep neural networks with compressed sensing and high-dimensional polynomial approximation theory. As a result, they yield sufficient conditions on the network architecture, the training strategy, and the number of samples able to guarantee accurate approximation of smooth functions of many variables. Time permitting, we will also discuss work in progress and open questions in this research area. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Using IMERG rainfall data, the onset and the demise of the rainy season over Central America will be characterized. Methods to be used include those developed by Dr. Misra and outlined in his previous papers but will be applied to the Central America region. By characterizing the typical season, trends in early or late onset dates may reveal significant insights into what to expect for the following rainy season. Tony Freveletti: Characterizing the diurnal variability of convectively available potential energy and convective inhibition in the Southeastern United States 10 years of CAPE and CIN values have been computed every day at 3-hour intervals from the FLAReS1.0 dataset. Using these values an empirical ensemble mode decomposition (EEMD) analysis will be done to characterize diurnal variability on the diurnal, semi-diurnal, and seasonal scales.

Facing both theoretical and practical constraints, this realm of ?seasonal prediction? progressed slowly in recent decades. Here we devise an innovative scheme that pushes the boundary of seasonal prediction by recognizing and isolating distinct spatiotemporal footprints left by modes of climate variability that cause varying annual cycles in response to the solar forcing. The predictive power harnessed from these spatiotemporal footprints results in a prediction skill surpassing existing models for seasonal forecasts of eastern China rainfall, which is one of the most challenging seasonal prediction problems. By considering varying annual cycles explicitly, the new scheme is able to predict multi-provincial flood and/or drought occurrences seamlessly over an entire year. This novel scheme is generically applicable for improving seasonal forecasts over other monsoon regions and for critical climate variables such as surface temperature and Arctic sea-ice extent.

SEMINAR LOCATION: EOA 1044 (speaker remote) SPEAKER: Dr. Tsung-Lin Hsieh TITLE: Tropical cyclone frequency in the future: understanding the model uncertainty through the dynamics of seed vortices ABSTRACT: With climate change, tropical cyclones will likely occur at a different rate and location. The response of tropical cyclone frequency to future climate change is difficult to constrain, whether using theory, observational records, or modeling. In this talk, I will focus on future projections made by global climate models and discuss the source of uncertainty. I will develop a theoretical relationship between tropical cyclone frequency and future climate change, which involves the dynamics of vortex formation, large-scale energy balance, and tropical cloud response. Theoretical hypotheses are tested in versions of atmospheric models developed at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Lab. The results imply a relationship between tropical cyclone frequency and equilibrium climate sensitivity, for which I will show evidence from CMIP6 models and discuss the assumptions and limitations.

They showed that, as the resolution is increased to 1/50? (~ 1.5 km at mid-latitudes) from 1/12?, the representation of Gulf Stream penetration and associated recirculating gyres shifts from unrealistic to realistic and that the penetration of eddy kinetic energy into the deep ocean is drastically different and closely resembles observations. They however noted several discrepancies between the high-resolution 1/50? numerical simulation and observations. The first one wasno variability in the sea surface height spectra wavenumber spectral slope between high/mid-latitudes and the equator. The second one was an area of high sea surface height variability and surface EKE wider than observed near the New England seamount chain which suggests that interactions with the topography may be overemphasized in this model configuration. We will show that the inclusion of high-resolution bathymetry and tides significantly improve the models? abilities to represent the observed ocean variability and Gulf Stream pathway. -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

On the other hand, it had recently become clear that most plastics found at any particular location are relatively local, often originating from within the same country. Effective policies to reduce the impact of plastic pollution require knowledge of whose plastic ends up where. In this seminar, I will present some recent work on using a Bayesian framework to analyze the sources of plastics found on beaches around the world. The input to this analysis comes from Lagrangian ocean analysis simulations with the OceanParcels.org ?tool, which I will also showcase. I will particularly highlight results from the Indian Ocean, the Galapagos, the South Atlantic and the North Sea. -- /*Olmo Zavala-Romero*/ *Assistant Professor* *https://urldefense.com/v3/__http://olmozavala.com*__;Kg!!PhOWcWs!0pKbNoDftqaxGNAOGZG0C1_P8ZipPSd15HMK5K0_CYX34Uoxg8DFIcLlyUEtuy5yuBB9T8oNzaVzsK9uj20SmwTKqp8X$ *Department of Scientific Computing* *Florida State University* 400 Dirac Science Library Tallahassee, FL 32306-4120 *Tel:?? 850-346-9101* *Email: osz09 at fsu.edu* -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

DATE: Thursday November 17 STUDENT Q&A: 2:15 PM, EOA 6067 SEMINAR TIME: Refreshments at 3 PM, Talk 3:15 PM - 4:15 PM. SEMINAR LOCATION: EOA 1044 (speaker remote) SPEAKER: Dr. Tsung-Lin Hsieh TITLE: Tropical cyclone frequency in the future: understanding the model uncertainty through the dynamics of seed vortices ABSTRACT: With climate change, tropical cyclones will likely occur at a different rate and location. The response of tropical cyclone frequency to future climate change is difficult to constrain, whether using theory, observational records, or modeling. In this talk, I will focus on future projections made by global climate models and discuss the source of uncertainty. I will develop a theoretical relationship between tropical cyclone frequency and future climate change, which involves the dynamics of vortex formation, large-scale energy balance, and tropical cloud response. Theoretical hypotheses are tested in versions of atmospheric models developed at the Geophysical Fluid Dynamics Lab. The results imply a relationship between tropical cyclone frequency and equilibrium climate sensitivity, for which I will show evidence from CMIP6 models and discuss the assumptions and limitations. We look forward to seeing you this Thursday! Cheers, Allison On behalf of the MET Seminar Committee ??????????????????

All are welcome to attend. https://fsu.zoom.us/j/94273595552 Meeting # 942 7359 5552 Wednesday, Nov 30th, 2022, Schedule: * 3:00 to 3:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) Nespresso & Teatime (in 417 DSL Commons) * 3:30 to 4:30 PM Eastern Time (US and Canada) Colloquium - Attend F2F (in 499 DSL) or Virtually (via Zoom) Abstract: An improved algorithm for computing multimaterial/multi-phase flows is presented in which the multimaterial Moment-Of-Fluid (MOF) algorithm for multiphase flows, initially described by Li et al (2015), is enhanced addressing existing MOF difficulties in computing solutions to problems in which surface tension forces are crucial for understanding salient flow mechanisms. The Continuous Moment of Fluid (CMOF) method is introduced in this article. The CMOF reconstruction method inherently removes the "checkerboard instability" that persists when using the MOF method on surface tension driven multiphase/multimaterial flows. The new CMOF reconstruction algorithm is accelerated by coupling the CMOF method to the level set method and coupling the CMOF method to the Decision Tree machine learning algorithm. Multiphase flow examples are shown in 2D, RZ, and 3D. Examples include two material and three material multiphase flows: bubble formation, phase change in a cryogenic fuel tank, freezing, and liquid lens dynamics. The attached figure is a simulation of a jet impinging the bubble ullage in a cryogenic fuel tank. https://www.sc.fsu.edu/news-and-events/seminars/1697-colloquium-with-mark-sussman-2022 -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
