Abstract:
Abstract : This paper first analyses the current situation of credit risk in China’s real estate industry, and then compares the traditional and modern credit risk measurement models. On this basis, the KMV model is selected, and the artificial intelligence model Genetic Algorithm (GA) and GARCH model are introduced to improve the accuracy of the KMV model. Secondly, the annual financial data and stock trading data of 24 real estate listed companies for 2018 – 2022 are selected for empirical research. By analyzing the total default distance of the 24 companies and the actual economic development of China, it is proved that the results of the GA-GARCH-KMV model are 8% more correct than the classical KMV model, which indicates that the model has better applicability.

Abstract:
Based on the ESG-KMV model constructed by introducing industry ESG thresholds and ESG score values into the traditional KMV model's enterprise asset value and enterprise default point, a nonlinear mathematical expectation ESG-KMV model was constructed from the perspective of a commercial bank considering exogenous shocks and other factors, in order to measure the impact of exogenous shocks on the green credit risk of iron and steel enterprises. Results: The ESG-KMV model based on nonlinear expectation modification is introduced under the consideration of exogenous shocks, and the measurement results show that the default distance in the control group is relatively stable, while the default distance in the default group becomes sharply larger and smaller, and then becomes stable and smaller, which indicates that the model can effectively measure the impact of exogenous shocks on the green credit risk of iron and steel enterprises.

Abstract: Nilai perusahaan sama dengan penjumlahan nilai saham dan nilai utang (bond atau kewajiban) perusahaan. Nilai perusahaan berfluktuasi. Bila nilai perusahaan lebih kecil dibanding nilai bond perusahaan, maka perusahaan default. KMV menentukan bahwa titik default perusahaan sama dengan nilai utang jangka pendek dan setengah dari utang jangka panjangnya. Semakin tinggi nilai perusahaan, semakin kecil perusahaan default. KMV memetakan jarak dari nilai perusahaan ke titik default ke frekuensi default (expected default frequency).

Abstract:
The main objective of this paper is to perform empirical analysis and research on the KMV and Zeta models, discussing whether banks in China could adopt both models in their credit risk management practices. In order to measure credit risk, the KMV model focuses on “Expected Default Probability” (EDP) that is calculated using Black-Scholes Option Pricing Formula. On the other hand, the Zeta Model focuses on determining the probability of a company going bankrupt two years prior to the event. Previous research on risk management has shown that the primary risk the banks generally face is credit risk as an increasingly greater number of banks suffer losses because of credit issues. This paper therefore aims to add to the existing literature a strong case for the relevance of both the KMV and Zeta models to be considered in the topic of banks’ credit risk management.

Abstract:
Credit risk management has become a must in this era due to the increase in the number of businesses defaulting. Building upon the legacy of Kealhofer, McQuown, and Vasicek (KMV), a mathematical model is introduced based on Merton model called KMV-Merton model to predict the credit risk of firms. The KMV-Merton model is commonly used in previous default studies but is said to be lacking in necessary detail. Hence, this study aims to combine the KMV-Merton model with the financial ratios to determine the firms’ credit scores and ratings. Based on the sample data of four firms, the KMV-Merton model is used to estimate the default probabilities. The data is also used to estimate the firms’ liquidity, solvency, indebtedness, return on asset (ROA), and interest coverage. According to the weightages established in this analysis, scores were assigned based on those estimates to calculate the total credit score. The firms were then given a rating based on their respective credit score. The credit ratings are compared to the real credit ratings rated by Malaysian Rating Corporation Berhad (MARC). According to the comparison, three of the four companies have credit scores that are comparable to MARC’s. Two A-rated firms and one D-rated firm have the same ratings. The other receives a C instead of a B. This shows that the credit scoring technique used can grade the low and the high credit risk firms, but not strictly for a firm with a medium level of credit risk. Although research on credit scoring have been done previously, the combination of KMV-Merton model and financial ratios in one credit scoring model based on the calculated weightages gives new branch to the current studies. In practice, this study aids risk managers, bankers, and investors in making wise decisions through a smooth and persuasive process of monitoring firms’ credit risk.

Abstract:
The objective of the paper is to estimate the expected default probability and credit risk spread of Bank Islam Malaysia using the KMV Merton Model and analyse the strengths of the KMV model. The data used in this research are short term and long-term liabilities data of Bank Islam Malaysia Berhad that we obtained from the financial statements, stock prices and number of stocks traded of BIMB and Islamic Bank-relevant interest rates data that we obtained from the Overnight Policy Rate Decision (OPR) by Bank Negara Malaysia. The data is then prepared and interpolated to match weekly period before applying the KMV Model using Microsoft Excel to calculate the default probability and credit risk spread of BIMB. The result shows that the Probability of Default for BIMB is nearly 0.0001 for the first 3 years of its debt maturity period and nearly 0.0007 and 0.002 for the maturity period of 4 and 5 years respectively. Credit risk spread for BIMB is nearly null for the first 2 years maturity period then gradually increases each year to 0.01, 0.05 and 0.14. BIMB’s distance to default ranges between 9.17-10.01. The research indicates that the BIMB’s calculated PD is reliable and that the KMV Merton Model provides high accuracy and reliability of credit risk measurements. The KMV Model can be applied to different types of companies including Islamic Bank.

Abstract:
Starting from the loan users, KMV model transfers the evaluation of credit risk from the perspective of banks to the perspective of repayment enterprises, and judges whether the lending enterprises have repayment ability as the basis for evaluating credit risk. Credit risk is the core risk faced by commercial banks. When the economic situation fluctuates, people's economic expectations will gradually change, and the behavior of borrowers will also change. This paper studies the financial risk control mechanism of banks based on KMV model. This paper studies the credit risk status of 11 listed banks in China from 2018 to 2021, in order to observe whether macroeconomic changes have affected them since the new normal of economy. The empirical results show that the volatility of large commercial banks in each year is obviously lower than that of small and medium-sized commercial banks. The fluctuation range of weighted average default distance of large commercial banks is obviously smaller than that of small and medium-sized commercial banks. The empirical results show that KMV model has strong credit risk identification ability. The smaller the average default distance of an enterprise, the greater the corresponding default risk.

Abstract:
This study provides an in-depth analysis of a new financial model for cloud warehouses and evaluates the associated credit risk within the context of supply chain financing, focusing on the intelligent transformation in this field. Concurrently, an optimization problem was derived from the evaluation issue, with the whale optimization algorithm (WOA) used to identify a reasonable default point and distance. To simplify the identification of these points, we enhanced the traditional WOA, resulting in an improved version, the IWOA, which demonstrated very good optimization performance. The IWOA's optimization capabilities were applied to determine the optimal ratio of short- and long-term debt coefficients, identifying the default point in the Kealhofer, McQuown, and Vasicek (KMV) credit monitoring model, replacing fixed values and yielding more precise results. Furthermore, this study introduces a novel analytical approach to credit risk measurement, advancing the development of related theories and methods. Accurate analysis of financial stability and risk is crucial in industrial sectors, including engineering and manufacturing. The simulation using specific data revealed that the IWOA-KMV model exhibited better and faster optimization capabilities, with greater discrimination ability compared to the KMV model. Overall, this study examines the risk factors in the cloud warehouse financing model, offers an improved version of the WOA, introduces a modified IWOA-KMV model to create a scientific, practical credit risk assessment framework, and provides guidance for risk control in cloud warehouse financing, a novel financing service.

Abstract:
We discuss structural models based on Merton's framework. First, we observe that the classical assumptions of the Merton model are generally rejected. Secondly, we implement a structural credit risk model based on stable non-Gaussian processes as a representative of subordinated models in order to overcome some drawbacks of the Merton one. Finally, following the KMV-Merton estimation methodology, we propose an empirical comparison between the results obtained from the classical KMV-Merton model and the stable Paretian one. In particular, we suggest alternative parameter estimation for subordinated processes, and we optimize the performance for the stable Paretian model.

Abstract:
The main aim of my final thesis is to familiar reader with different ways of measuring credit risk by means of particular structural models of credit risk. This issue has been already described by foreign authors. Though, neither Czech nor Slovak economists have been deeply involved in this topic so far. For this reason, I have decided to focus on those models and both describe them as well as put them into the practice. My final thesis gradually focus on individual detailed model description in each chapter in following sequence: Credit Metrics, Black-School model, Merton model, KMV, Credit Grades. Moreover, it also targets model's construction as well as practical application. Regarding practical model's application, Black-School model is applied on IBM and KMV on Kraft Foods Company. Admittedly, that proves the fact that structural models are not only theoretical models, but also practical models applyable on real companies. Finally, I will compare all above mentioned models in selected parameters.

Abstract:
We are developing a novel classical over-the barrier model for electron transfer from an in nitely thin conducting disc to a point charge projectile to model multiple electron capture in e.g. keV collisions of atomic ions with poly-cyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). In its nal form, the present model will incorporate the polarization of the PAH molecules due to the active electron and the point charge projectile at a general angle of incidence. This will drastically improve the description of the potential barrier in comparisons with simpler versions of the model where the nite size and polarizability of the target molecule is neglected or treated in an averaged fashion. In this work we arrive at expressions for the electrostatic potential energy barrier experienced by the active electron in the two spatial orientations where the point charge projectile is located along the normal symmetry axis and in the tangent plane of the disc. Applied to coronene (C24H12) such barriers compare better with high level density functional theory (DFT) calculations than with the results from the simpler versions of the classical over-the-barrier models for atomic and spherical cluster targets. These results thus strongly supports the conducting disc approximation of PAHs. Finally we discuss the nal steps in the model development and possible extensions of the model to include less symmetric elliptical discs or spherical caps.

Abstract:
Some exceptional situations in fluid mechanics can be modeled by equations that are analytically solvable. The most famous example is the Korteweg–de Vries (KdV) equation for shallow water waves in a channel. The exact soliton solution of this equation is derived. The Lax pair formalism for solving the general initial value problem is outlined. Two hamiltonian formalisms for the KdV equation (Fadeev–Zakharov and Magri) are explained. Then a short review of the geometry of curves (Frenet–Serret equations) is given. They are used to derive a remarkably simple equation for the propagation of a kink along a vortex filament. This equation of Hasimoto has surprising connections to the nonlinear Schrödinger equation and to the Heisenberg model of ferromagnetism. An exact soliton solution is found.

Abstract:
Starting with a review of vector fields and their integral curves, the book presents the basic equations of the subject: Euler and Navier–Stokes. Some solutions are studied next: ideal flows using conformal transformations, viscous flows such as Couette and Stokes flow around a sphere, shocks in the Burgers equation. Prandtl’s boundary layer theory and the Blasius solution are presented. Rayleigh–Taylor instability is studied in analogy with the inverted pendulum, with a digression on Kapitza’s stabilization. The possibility of transients in a linearly stable system with a non-normal operator is studied using an example by Trefethen et al. The integrable models (KdV, Hasimoto’s vortex soliton) and their hamiltonian formalism are studied. Delving into deeper mathematics, geodesics on Lie groups are studied: first using the Lie algebra and then using Milnor’s approach to the curvature of the Lie group. Arnold’s deep idea that Euler’s equations are the geodesic equations on the diffeomorphism group is then explained and its curvature calculated. The next three chapters are an introduction to numerical methods: spectral methods based on Chebychev functions for ODEs, their application by Orszag to solve the Orr–Sommerfeld equation, finite difference methods for elementary PDEs, the Magnus formula and its application to geometric integrators for ODEs. Two appendices give an introduction to dynamical systems: Arnold’s cat map, homoclinic points, Smale’s horse shoe, Hausdorff dimension of the invariant set, Aref ’s example of chaotic advection. The last appendix introduces renormalization: Ising model on a Cayley tree and Feigenbaum’s theory of period doubling.

Full text
Abstract:
As a unique and high gigantic plateau, the Tibetan Plateau (TP) is sensitive and vulnerable to global climate change, and its climate change tendencies and the corresponding impact on regional ecosystems and water resources can provide an early alarm for global and mid-latitude climate changes. Growing evidence suggests that the TP has experienced more significant warming than its surrounding areas during past decades, especially at elevations higher than 4 km. Greater warming at higher elevations than at lower elevations has been reported in several major mountainous regions on earth, and this interesting phenomenon is known as elevation-dependent climate change, or elevation-dependent warming (EDW).At the beginning of the 21st century, Chinese scholars first noticed that the TP had experienced significant warming since the mid-1950s, especially in winter, and that the latest warming period in the TP occurred earlier than enhanced global warming since the 1970s. The Chinese also first reported that the warming rates increased with the elevation in the TP and its neighborhood, and the TP was one of the most sensitive areas to global climate change. Later, additional studies, using more and longer observations from meteorological stations and satellites, shed light on the detailed characteristics of EDW in terms of mean, minimum, and maximum temperatures and in different seasons. For example, it was found that the daily minimum temperature showed the most evident EDW in comparison to the mean and daily maximum temperatures, and EDW is more significant in winter than in other seasons. The mean daily minimum and maximum temperatures also maintained increasing trends in the context of EDW. Despite a global warming hiatus since the turn of the 21st century, the TP exhibited persistent warming from 2001 to 2012.Although EDW has been demonstrated by more and more observations and modeling studies, the underlying mechanisms for EDW are not entirely clear owing to sparse, discontinuous, and insufficient observations of climate change processes. Based on limited observations and model simulations, several factors and their combinations have been proposed to be responsible for EDW, including the snow-albedo feedback, cloud-radiation effects, water vapor and radiative fluxes, and aerosols forcing. At present, however, various explanations of the mechanisms for EDW are mainly derived from model-based research, lacking more solid observational evidence. Therefore, to comprehensively understand the mechanisms of EDW, a more extensive and multiple-perspective climate monitoring system is urgently needed in the areas of the TP with high elevations and complex terrains.High-elevation climate change may have resulted in a series of environmental consequences, such as vegetation changes, permafrost melting, and glacier shrinkage, in mountainous areas. In particular, the glacial retreat could alter the headwater environments on the TP and the hydrometeorological characteristics of several major rivers in Asia, threatening the water supply for the people living in the adjacent countries. Taking into account the climate-model projections that the warming trend will continue over the TP in the coming decades, this region’s climate change and the relevant environmental consequences should be of great concern to both scientists and the general public.

Abstract The title of the paper denotes two attributes: Attribute #1: “Inspection” reveals “past” events, i.e., inspection technologies determine the corrosion rate “after” corrosion had caused loss of material“Monitoring” reveals “Present” situation, i.e., monitoring techniques determine the corrosion rate at the time of monitoring“Model” predicts the “future” situation, i.e., modeling predicts the “futuristic” corrosion rate based on system operating conditions.Attribute #2: The paper discusses “past” developments, “present” status, and “future” advancements of inspection, monitoring, and modelling technologies. The main objective of the paper is on Attribute #2. In the past, the number of internal corrosion related incidences was more than 3 per 1,000 kilometers (km) of pipelines per yearIn the present, the number of internal corrosion related incidences hovers around 0.5 per 1,000 KMs of pipelines per yearIn the future, the industry’s goal is to bring the number of incidences to “ZERO”. This paper explains “effective” and “economical” actions that are required to achieve the “ZERO” incidence goal and the roles of inspection, monitoring, and modeling activities in achieving the goal.

Abstract:
Today, it is possible to work with a wide range of freely available data, often on a daily basis. These data can be used to create an early warning system for estimating the approximate hazard. It can also be used to develop models of long-term catchment behaviour. Most applications are generally carried out on catchments larger than 200 km2. For this reason, areas between 20 and 350 km2 were selected to test the hypothesis using models based on machine learning methods. How good results can be achieved when using daily data to predict increased flows caused by previous precipitation (summer) or a combination of snowmelt and precipitation (winter). The one day step was chosen for availability data (free data) and for testing area size limit for this step. The results showed that floods caused by a combination of rain and snowmelt were significantly better than those caused by rain alone. Two methods were compared. The neural networks ANN and fuzzy model. For both methods were founded the best architecture in training period. The results of the experiment showed that the limit of applicability of the data is above (around) 130 km2 in the case of pure rainfall. In the case of floods caused by a combination of rain and snow, the daily step can be used even for catchments of about 20 km2 with a one-day time shift.

Full text
Abstract:
Using the sample of 100 most liquid companies listed in the Stock Exchange of Thailand during 1992-1999, the default probabilities from two approaches, the logit model and the KMV model, are calculated and compared. The results from the KMV model suggest that the default probabilities of financial institutions are higher than the probabilities of industrial companies. Moreover, the results from the KMV model confirm that the average default probabilities of the financial distressed firms in the 1997 financial crisis are higher than the average default probabilities of non-distressed firms. Comparing the prediction of the KMV model with the logit model, the results show that the logit model is better in terms of total prediction error and the Type I error at any cut off levels. The regression results suggest that the default probabilities of the two models have positive associations and seem to be consistent over the period of 1992-1999. Finally, the study examines whether the default probabilities have been priced. The results suggest that investors indeed do require compensations for default risk. The evidence also suggests that investors are more concerned of risk and require higher compensation for likelihood of default after the financial crisis.

Full text
Abstract:
Surface area of glaciers and perennial snow within Mount Rainier National Park were delineated based on 2021 aerial Structure-from-Motion (SfM) and satellite imagery to document changes to glaciers over the last 125 years. These extents were compared with previously completed databases from 1896, 1913, 1971, 1994, 2009, and 2015. In addition to the glacial features mapped at the Park, any snow patches noted in satellite- and fixed-wing- acquired aerial images in September 2021 were mapped as perennial snowfields. In 2021, Mount Rainier National Park contained a total of 28 named glaciers which covered a total of 75.496 ± 4.109 km2 (29.149 ± 1.587 mi2). Perennial snowfields added another 1.938 ± 0.112 km2 (0.748 ± 0.043 mi2), bringing the total perennial snow and glacier cover within the Park in 2021 to 77.434 ± 4.221 km2 (29.897 ± 1.630 mi2). The largest glacier at Mount Rainier was the Emmons Glacier, which encompasses 10.959 ± 0.575 km2 (4.231 ± 0.222 mi2). The change in glacial area from 1896 to 2021 was -53.812 km2 (-20.777 mi2), a total reduction of 41.6%. This corresponds to an average rate of -0.430 km2 per year (-0.166 mi2 × yr-1) during the 125 year period. Recent changes (between the 6-year period of 2015 to 2021) showed a reduction of 3.262 km2 (-1.260 mi2) of glacial area, or a 4.14% reduction at a rate of -0.544 km2 per year ( 0.210 mi2 × yr-1). This rate is 2.23 times that estimated in 2015 (2009-2015) of -0.244 km2 per year (-0.094 mi2 × yr-1). Changes in ice volume at Mount Rainier and estimates of total volumes were calculated for 1896, 1913, 1971, 1994, 2009, 2015, and 2021. Volume change between 1971 and 2007/8 was -0.65 km3 ( 0.16 mi3; Sisson et al., 2011). We used the 2007/8 LiDAR digital elevation model and our 2021 SfM digital surface model to estimate a further loss of -0.404 km3 (-0.097 mi3). In the 50-year period between 1971 and 2021, the glaciers and perennial snowfields of Mount Rainier lost a total of -1.058 km3 (-0.254 mi3) at a rate of -0.021 km3 per year (-0.005 mi3 × yr-1). The calculation of the total volume of the glaciers during various glacier extent inventories at Mount Rainier is not straightforward and various methods are explored in this paper. Using back calculated scaling parameters derived from a single volume measurement in 1971 and estimates completed by other authors, we have developed an estimate of glacial mass during the last 125-years at Mount Rainier that mostly agree with volumetric changes observed in the last 50 years. Because of the high uncertainty with these methods, a relatively modest 35% error is chosen. In 2021, Mount Rainier’s 28 glaciers contain about 3.516 ± 1.231 km3 (0.844 ± 0.295 mi3) of glacial ice, snow, and firn. The change in glacial mass over the 125-year period from 1896 to 2021 was 3.742 km3 (-0.898 mi3), a total reduction of 51.6%, at an average rate of -0.030 km3 per year ( 0.007 mi3 × yr-1). Volume change over the 6-year period of 2015 to 2021 was 0.175 km3 (-0.042 mi3), or a 4.75% reduction, at a rate of -0.029 km3 per year (-0.007 mi3 × yr-1). This survey officially removes one glacier from the Park’s inventory and highlights several other glaciers in a critical state. The Stevens Glacier, an offshoot of the Paradise Glacier on the Park’s south face, was removed due to its lack of features indicating flow, and therefore is no longer a glacier but instead a perennial snowfield. Two other south facing glaciers – the Pyramid and Van Trump glaciers – are in serious peril. In the six-year period between 2015 and 2021, these two glaciers lost 32.9% and 33.6% of their area and 42.0% and 42.9% of their volume, respectively. These glaciers are also becoming exceedingly fragmented and no longer possess what can be called a main body of ice. Continued losses will quickly lead to the demise of these glaciers in the coming decades. Overall, the glaciers on the south face of the mountain have been rapidly shrinking over the last 125 years. Our data shows a continuation of gradual yet accelerating loss of glacial ice at Mount Rainier, resulting in significant changes in regional ice volume over the last century. The long-term impacts of this loss will be widespread and impact many facets of the Park ecosystem. Additionally, rapidly retreating south-facing glaciers are exposing large areas of loose sediment that can be mobilized to proglacial rivers during rainstorms, outburst floods, and debris flows. Regional climate change is affecting all glaciers at Mount Rainier, but especially those smaller cirque glaciers and discontinuous glaciers on the south side of the volcano. If the regional climate trend continues, further loss in glacial area and volume parkwide is anticipated, as well as the complete loss of small glaciers at lower elevations with surface areas less than 0.2 km2 (0.08 mi2) in the next few decades.

Full text
Abstract:
An update to the BCHydro ground-motion model for subduction earthquakes has been developed using the 2018 PEER NGA-SUB dataset. The selected subset includes over 70,000 recordings from 1880 earthquakes. The update modifies the BCHydro model to include regional terms for the VS30 scaling, large distance (linear R) scaling, and constant terms, which is consistent with the regionalization approach used in the NGA-W2 ground-motion models. A total of six regions were considered: Cascadia, Central America, Japan, New Zealand, South America, and Taiwan. Region- independent terms are used for the small-magnitude scaling, geometrical spreading, depth to top of rupture (ZTOR ) scaling, and slab/interface scaling. The break in the magnitude scaling at large magnitudes for slab earthquakes is based on thickness of the slab and is subduction-zone dependent. The magnitude scaling for large magnitudes is constrained based on finite-fault simulations as given in the 2016 BCHydro model. Nonlinear site response is also constrained to be the same as the 2016 BCHydro model. The sparse ground-motion data from Cascadia show a factor of 2–3 lower ground motions than for other regions. Without a sound physical basis for this large reduction, the Cascadia model is adjusted to be consistent with the average from all regions for the center range of the data: M = 6.5, R = 100 km, VS30 = 400 m/sec. Epistemic uncertainty is included using the scaled backbone approach, with high and low models based on the range of average ground motions for the different regions. For the Cascadia region, the ground-motion model is considered applicable to distance up to 1000 km, magnitudes of 5.0 to 9.5, and periods from 0 to 10 sec. The intended use of this update is to provide an improved ground-motion model for consideration for use in the development of updated U.S. national hazard maps. This update ground-motion model will be superseded by the NGA-SUB ground-motion model when they are completed.

Full text
Abstract:
An empirical ground-motion model (GMM) for shallow crustal earthquakes in California and Nevada based on the NGA-West2 database [Ancheta et al. 2014] is presented. Rather than the traditional response spectrum GMM, this model is developed for the smoothed effective amplitude spectrum (EAS) as defined by PEER [Goulet et al. 2018]. The EAS is the orientation- independent horizontal component Fourier amplitude spectrum (FAS) of ground acceleration. The model is developed using a database dominated by California earthquakes, but takes advantage of crustal earthquake data worldwide to constrain the magnitude scaling and geometric spreading. The near-fault saturation is guided by finite-fault numerical simulations and non-linear site amplification is incorporated using a modified version of Hashash et al. [2018]. The model is applicable for rupture distances of 0–300 km, M 3.0 – 8.0, and over the frequency range 0.1–100 Hz. The model is considered applicable for Vs30 in the range 180–1500 m/sec, although it is not well constrained for Vs30 values greater than 1000 m/sec. Models for the median and the aleatory variability of the EAS are developed. Regional models for Japan and Taiwan will be developed in a future update of the model. A MATLAB program that implements the EAS GMM is provided as an electronic appendix.

In contrast to the rational expectations hypothesis and behavioral specifications, KMH reconciles model consistency with an autonomous role for participants. expectations in driving aggregate outcomes and the influence of psychological factors on those expectations.

Abstract:
Infrasound—that is, acoustic waves with frequencies below the threshold of human hearing—has historically been used to detect and locate distant explosive events over global ranges (≥1,000 km). Simulations over these ranges have traditionally relied on large-scale, synoptic meteorological information. However, infrasound propagation over shorter, local ranges (0–100 km) may be affected by smaller, mesoscale meteorological features. To identify the effects of these mesoscale meteorological features on local infrasound propagation, simulations were conducted using the Weather Research and Forecasting (WRF) meteorological model to approximate the meteorological conditions associated with a series of historical, small-scale explosive test events that occurred at the Big Black Test Site in Bovina, Mississippi. These meteorological conditions were then incorporated into a full-wave acoustic model to generate meteorology-informed predictions of infrasound propagation. A series of WRF simulations was conducted with varying degrees of horizontal resolution—1, 3, and 15 km—to investigate the spatial sensitivity of these infrasound predictions. The results illustrate that convective precipitation events demonstrate potentially observable effects on local infrasound propagation due to strong, heterogeneous gradients in temperature and wind associated with the convective events themselves. Therefore, to accurately predict infrasound propagation on local scales, it may be necessary to use convection-permitting meteorological models with a horizontal resolution ≤4 km at locations and times that support mesoscale convective activity.

Abstract:
Canada 1 Water is a 3-year governmental multi-department-private-sector-academic collaboration to model the groundwater-surface-water of Canada coupled with historic climate and climate scenario input. To address this challenge continental Canada has been allocated to one of 6 large watershed basins of approximately two million km2. The model domains are based on natural watershed boundaries and include approximately 1 million km2 of the United States. In year one (2020-2021) data assembly and validation of some 20 datasets (layers) is the focus of work along with conceptual model development. To support analysis of the entire water balance the modelling framework consists of three distinct components and modelling software. Land Surface modelling with the Community Land Model will support information needed for both the regional climate modelling using the Weather Research &amp;amp; Forecasting model (WRF), and input to HydroGeoSphere for groundwater-surface-water modelling. The inclusion of the transboundary watersheds will provide a first time assessment of water resources in this critical international domain. Modelling is also being integrated with Remote Sensing datasets, notably the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (GRACE). GRACE supports regional scale watershed analysis of total water flux. GRACE along with terrestrial time-series data will serve provide validation datasets for model results to ensure that the final project outputs are representative and reliable. The project has an active engagement and collaborative effort underway to try and maximize the long-term benefit of the framework. Much of the supporting model datasets will be published under open access licence to support broad usage and integration.

Abstract:
We expect there to be locations around a rupture that experience both positive and negative directivity effects more than others. The concept was to develop a simple model of additional mean and standard deviation to add to existing published ground motion prediction equations to account for this. The directivity effect predicted by Chiou and Youngs [2014] using the directivity parameter DPP [Spudich et al. 2013] was selected as the basis for the model. A suite of rupture geometries for strike-slip and reverse ruptures was generated and the mean and standard deviation of the change in the 5% damped pseudo-spectral acceleration at sites out to rupture distances of 70 km was calculated. Models are presented for the change in mean and standard deviation for both strike-slip and reverse ruptures that use only simple parameters as inputs.
