Simulated high-latitude soil thermal dynamics during the past 4 decades
Soil temperature (Ts) change is a key indicator of the dynamics of permafrost. On seasonal and interannual timescales, the variability of Ts determines the active-layer depth,...- publication PDF

An upwind-biased transport scheme using a quadratic reconstruction on...
Several transport schemes developed for spherical icosahedral grids are based on the piecewise linear approximation. The simplest one among them uses an algorithm where the...- publication PDF
