Our goal is to construct the model reproducing the real silica scaling. To meet this goal, we develop the multi-scale modeling of silica scale growth and compare the simulation result of the amount and the distribution of silica deposition and the data from a laboratory or a field experiment to verify our model. In meso-scale model, the adhesion of the colloidal silica is analyzed using Lagrangian method, while, in the macro-scale model, lattice Boltzmann (LB) simulation is performed using the scale growth rate obtained at the meso-scale model. From our simulation result, the real phenomenon is reproduced quantitatively and quantitatively, which has not been reproduced in the reaction kinetics. It is, therefore, necessary to emphasize the adhesion of the colloidal silica should be taken into account for reproducing silica scaling.","PeriodicalId":14836,"journal":{"name":"Japan Geoscience Union","volume":"14 1","pages":"4"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-05-24","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91108682","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Winter echoes from the PANSY radar and low altitude MF echoes below approximately 70−75 km mostly coexisted, appearing during the daytime as well as for a few hours post sunset. Summer echoes in the lower height region were absent in both radar observations, suggesting a close relationship in the generation mechanisms of these two radar echoes. High correlation between local K-index and the occurrence of winter echoes suggested that electron density enhancement due to ionized particle precipitation was one of the triggers of echo generation. Angles of arrival of the MF echoes were more isotropic in winter. Because gravity wave activity is much higher in winter over Syowa, higher turbulence energy caused by gravity wave breaking may also be responsible for the generation of the winter echoes and their isotropic behavior. The horizontal wind velocities of the two systems were further compared and agreed well throughout the height region of 60−90 km. (Citation: Tsutsumi, M., K. Sato, T. Sato, M. Kohma, T. Nakamura, K.

{"title":"International collaboration for a trustworthy research data infrastructure","authors":"Mokrane Mustapha, W. Hugo, D. Ingrid, Harrison Sandra","doi":"10.5281/zenodo.50144","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.50144","url":null,"abstract":"Today’s research is international, transdisciplinary, and data-enabled, which requires scrupulous data stewardship, full and open access to data, and efficient collaboration and coordination. New expectations on researchers based on policies from governments and funders to share data fully, openly, and in a timely manner present significant challenges but are also opportunities to improve the quality and efficiency of research and its accountability to society. Researchers should be able to archive and disseminate data as required by many institutions or funders, and civil society to scrutinize datasets underlying public policies. Thus, the trustworthiness of data services must be verifiable. In addition, the need to integrate large and complex datasets across disciplines and domains with variable levels of maturity calls for greater coordination to achieve sufficient interoperability and sustainability. The World Data System (WDS) of the International Council for Science (ICSU) promotes long-term stewardship of, and universal and equitable access to, quality-assured scientific data and services across a range of disciplines in the natural and social sciences. WDS aims at coordinating and supporting trusted scientific data services for the provision, use, and preservation of relevant datasets to facilitate scientific research, in particular under the ICSU umbrella, while strengthening their links with the research community. WDS certifies its Members, holders and providers of data or data products, using internationally recognized standards. Certification of scientific data services is essential to ensure trustworthiness of the global research data infrastructure. It contributes to building a searchable, distributed, interoperable and sustainable research data infrastructure. Several certification standards have been developed over the last decade (NESTORseal, DIN standard 31644, TRAC and ISO 16363.) In addition, the Data Seal of Approval (DSA) and WDS have set up core certification mechanisms for trusted digital repositories in 2009, which are increasingly recognized as de facto standards. While DSA emerged in Europe in the Humanities and Social Sciences, WDS started as an international initiative with historical roots in the Earth and Space Sciences. Their catalogues of requirements and review procedures are based on the same principles of openness and transparency. A unique feature of both DSA and WDS certifications is that it strikes a balance between simplicity, robustness and the effort required to complete. A successful international cross-project collaboration was initiated between WDS and DSA under the umbrella of the Research Data Alliance (RDA), an international initiative started in 2013 to promote data interoperability which provided a useful and neutral forum. A joint working group was established in early 2014 to reconcile and simplify the array of certification options and improve and stimulate core certification for scientific da","PeriodicalId":14836,"journal":{"name":"Japan Geoscience Union","volume":"37 1","pages":"8"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90108814","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Matsuyama","doi":"10.11440/RSSJ.36.388","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.11440/RSSJ.36.388","url":null,"abstract":"Photographic surveying using a small-sized UAV (Unmanned Aerial Vehicle) has recently attracted attention. The SfM (Structure from Motion) method makes it possible to create 3D point clouds and a 3D model from multiple 2D images. Furthermore, an orthomosaic photograph and DSM (Digital Surface Model) can be generated from the 3D model. It has been reported that the precision of the point clouds becomes low when the target is vegetation due to insufficient resolution of images, the vegetation moving in the wind, and shadow areas in the images. This study, therefore, created a DSM of a forest crown using nadir+oblique stereo pair images taken by a small-sized UAV. The study was carried out in the larch forests at the foot of the Yatsugatake Mountains, Yamanashi Prefecture, Japan, in July, 2015. A UAV with a digital camera flew over the study site to acquire crown images in the nadir and oblique directions using an autopilot system. We first generated dense point clouds, from which we then generated orthomosaic photographs and DSMs following three patterns: (1) 70 nadir images taken at an altitude of 100m above the ground; (2) (1) plus 54 nadir images taken at an altitude of 50m above the ground; and (3) (1) plus 54 oblique images taken at an altitude of 50m above the ground. Under Pattern (1), 17.5% of the total area had no point clouds, while Patterns (2) and (3) showed 12.8% and 9.7%, respectively, with no point clouds. We obtained DSMs with a spatial resolution of 2.0∼2.5 cm for all three patterns. Some areas of the DSM of Pattern (1) showed less surface roughness; such areas decreased in Patterns (2) and (3). In conclusion, the present study demonstrates an improvement in the reproducibility of DSMs by adding oblique images in comparison with the use of nadir images alone.","PeriodicalId":14836,"journal":{"name":"Japan Geoscience Union","volume":"9 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"81976384","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In order to check the possibility of using FWI in conventional data processing sequences, we evaluated the effect of different initial models on inversion results. We developed new initial models for full waveform inversion using horizon-guided well interpolation and compared it against initial velocities converted from stacking velocities,with and without dip move-out (DMO) correction. Acoustic full waveform inversion results from Marmousi2 model showed that when the subsurface structure has strong dips, interval velocities which are converted from stacking velocity without dip corrections fail to initialize FWI properly. However, applying dip move-out correction on the seismic data will relax the dip complexities in the velocity analysis stage and a good initial model for FWI could be developed. Alternatively, horizon-guided well interpolation uses velocities derived from well logs and makes an interpolated velocity model along the picked horizon by a constrained post-stack inversion. This makes an initial velocity model for full waveform inversion which ensures the convergence to the correct solution.","PeriodicalId":14836,"journal":{"name":"Japan Geoscience Union","volume":"64 1","pages":"5"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-03-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80186397","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
