The Planet Simulator: Green planet and desert world
نویسندگان
چکیده
An application of the Planet Simulator is presented to estimate the maximum effect of vegetation on the Earth’s climate. Four sets of sensitivity experiments are performed: (1) All vegetation related land surface parameters are changed simultaneously. (2) Only one effect of vegetation on climate is considered: albedo, surface roughness and soil hydrology. To identify the nature of vegetation-climate interaction, linear superposition and non-linear interaction of these three effects are compared. (3) The first experimental set-up is repeated but with mixed-layer ocean and thermodynamic sea-ice. (4) The effect of enhanced greenhouse gas concentrations on extreme vegetation climates is analysed repeating the preceding experimental setup with twice the CO2 concentration (compared to set-3).

متن کاملEvaluation of Planet Factors of Smart City through Multi-layer Fuzzy Logic (MFL)
Internet of Things (IoT) approach is empowering smart city creativities all over the world. There is no specific tool or criteria for the evaluation of the services offered by the smart city. In this paper, a new Multilayer Fuzzy Inference System (MFIS) is proposed for the assessment of the Planet Factors of smart city (PFSC). The PFSC system is categorized into two levels. The proposed MFIS ba...
متن کاملWhy we need to read and understand literature: literariness and Hans Rosling’s Factfulness (2018)
My article addresses the qualities of “good” literature and how an understanding of the nature of literary devices, so-called “literariness”, can enhance the reading experience. Focusing on Hans Rosling’s Factfulness (2018), I discuss some of the most important features of good writing. Six literary devices have been selected for special attention: point of view, tone, amplification, anecdotes,...

متن کاملComparative metagenomics of two microbial mats at Cuatro Ciénegas Basin I: ancient lessons on how to cope with an environment under severe nutrient stress.
The Cuatro Ciénegas Basin (CCB) is an oasis in the desert of Mexico characterized by low phosphorus availability and by its great diversity of microbial mats. We compared the metagenomes of two aquatic microbial mats from the CCB with different nutrient limitations. We observed that the red mat was P-limited and dominated by Pseudomonas, while the green mat was N-limited and had higher species ...
