This paper assesses the communication and the use of climate scenarios at the science–science and science–policy interface in Finland, Sweden and Norway. It is based on document analysis and stakeholder questionnaires. The questionnaires targeted three stakeholder groups, all engaged in the communication and the use of climate scenario information: climate scenario producers; impact, adaptation an

IntroductionSport-related concussion (SRC) is a major health concern in contact sports. Linear head acceleration (LHA) and rotational head acceleration (RHA) are central biomechanical markers, and anticipatory neck muscle activation may mitigate these forces. Evidence on how anticipation influences head kinematics, and whether sex differences exist, remains limited. This study compared head accele

Forests and forestry are relevant for multiple uses and benefits. The increasing urgency of climate change warrants consideration of how to balance use of forests as a carbon sink and use of wood for products. Carbon sink benefits are recognized in climate science, international climate policy, and also integrated into, e.g. the EU’s climate mitigation pathways. Climate benefits of forest products

Recent technologies of district heating and cooling (DHC) systems integrate renewable energy sources and connect multiple heat producers and consumers to the same network. The resulting interactions may therefore cause the fluid in the pipe, or the energy carried by the system, to flow in both directions. This article presents a newly developed analytical method for evaluating the hydraulic states

For decades, the environmental sciences have engaged in measuring and modelling natural systems to increase our understanding and prediction of climate change. This thesis advances these efforts by analyzing and applying in-situ instruments, remote sensing, and modelling approaches. The main focus lies in utilizing a state-of-the-art global Earth System Model (ESM) EC-Earth3, which is used to simu

In this paper an implementation of a reduced complexity matching pursuit channel estimator for LTE is presented. The design contains an FFT/IFFT module with non-radix 2 units and the core estimator. The FFT/IFFT module is flexible enough to perform both operations using the same hardware. Based on prior work the needed internal word lengths are found. Internal shifts are employed to maximize the u

In this article, we revisit a classical optimization problem occurring in designing survivable multicommodity flow networks. The problem, referred to as FR, assumes flow restoration that takes advantage of the so-called stub release. As no compact linear programming (LP) formulation of FR is known and at the same time all known noncompact LP formulations of FR exhibit NP-hard dual separation, the

In many organisations a gap exists between IT management and emergency managemement. This paper illustrates how process improvement based on a maturity model can be used to help organisations to evaluate and improve the way they include IT dependability information in their emergency management. This paper presents the IDEM3 (IT Dependability in Emergency Management Maturity Model) process improve

Abstract in UndeterminedThe properties of the single-link multiple-input-multiple- output (MIMO) propagation channels have been analyzed in many studies based on extensive propagation measurements. In this letter, we extend the measurement-based analysis to dual-link MIMO propagation channels. Here, we examine interlink correlation by evaluating the correlation of eigenvectors obtained from multip

Completely analyzed and closed issue reports in software development projects, particularly in the development of safety-critical systems, often carry important information about issue-related change locations. These locations may be in the source code, as well as traces to test cases affected by the issue, and related design and requirements documents. In order to help developers analyze new issu

Numerous geometric problems in computer vision involve the solu- tion of systems of polynomial equations. This is particularly true for so called minimal problems, but also for finding stationary points for overdetermined prob- lems. The state-of-the-art is based on the use of numerical linear algebra on the large but sparse coefficient matrix that represents the original equations multi- plied wi

A prerequisite to applying 10Be in natural archives for solar and geomagnetic reconstructions is to know how 10Be deposition reflects atmospheric production changes. However, this relationship remains debated. To address this, we use two state-of-the-art global models GEOS-Chem and ECHAM6.3-HAM2.3 with the latest beryllium production model. During solar modulation, both models suggest that 10Be de

Cosmogenic radionuclides (e.g., 10Be) from ice cores are a powerful tool for solar reconstructions back in time. However, superimposed on the solar signal, other factors like weather/climate and volcanic influences on 10Be can complicate the interpretation of 10Be data. A comprehensive study of 10Be records over the recent period, when atmospheric 10Be production and meteorological conditions are

The upcoming Artificial Intelligence (AI) Act is the European Union's attempt to regulate high-risk AI systems and foundation models. We give an up-to-date overview of the act's key requirements, explain how the high-risk classification works, and highlight what matters for its operationalization.

Declarative approaches to program analysis promise a number of practical advantages over imperative approaches, from eliminating manual worklist management to increasing modularity. Reference Attribute Grammars (RAGs) are one such approach. One particular advantage of RAGs is the automatic generation of on-demand implementations, suitable for query-based interactive tooling as well as for client a

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change needs to do more to include the expertise and voices of women, even as numbers and policies improve.

Background: The popularity of the open source software development in the last decade, has brought about an increased interest from the industry on how to use open source components, participate in the open source community, build business models around this type of software development, and learn more about open source development methodologies.
