In order to predict the consequences of these changes to ecosystems, it is important that we 14 understand the mechanistic links between temporally dynamic ice conditions and the physical factors 15 which govern phytoplankton growth (Popova et al. 2010). The mechanisms that govern productivity of 16 the Chukchi Sea ecosystem are of considerable interest due to dramatically changing temporal and spatial 17 patterns of sea ice coverage and because this area is likely to be the subject of intense fossil fuel 18 exploration in coming decades (Dunton et al. 2014).

  • Kalman and Particle Filtering
    Abstract: The Kalman and Particle filters are algorithms that recursively update an estimate of the state and find the innovations driving a stochastic process given a sequence of observations. The Kalman filter accomplishes this goal by linear projections, while the Particle filter does so by a sequential Monte Carlo method. With the state estimates, we can forecast and smooth the stochastic process. With the innovations, we can estimate the parameters of the model. The article discusses how to set a dynamic model in a state-space form, derives the Kalman and Particle filters, and explains how to use them for estimation. Kalman and Particle Filtering The Kalman and Particle filters are algorithms that recursively update an estimate of the state and find the innovations driving a stochastic process given a sequence of observations. The Kalman filter accomplishes this goal by linear projections, while the Particle filter does so by a sequential Monte Carlo method. Since both filters start with a state-space representation of the stochastic processes of interest, section 1 presents the state-space form of a dynamic model. Then, section 2 intro- duces the Kalman filter and section 3 develops the Particle filter. For extended expositions of this material, see Doucet, de Freitas, and Gordon (2001), Durbin and Koopman (2001), and Ljungqvist and Sargent (2004). 1. The state-space representation of a dynamic model A large class of dynamic models can be represented by a state-space form: Xt+1 = ϕ (Xt,Wt+1; γ) (1) Yt = g (Xt,Vt; γ) . (2) This representation handles a stochastic process by finding three objects: a vector that l describes the position of the system (a state, Xt X R ) and two functions, one mapping ∈ ⊂ 1 the state today into the state tomorrow (the transition equation, (1)) and one mapping the state into observables, Yt (the measurement equation, (2)).

  • Single Particle Analysis of Particulate Pollutants in Yellowstone National Park During the Winter Snowmobile Season
    SINGLE PARTICLE ANALYSIS OF PARTICULATE POLLUTANTS IN YELLOWSTONE NATIONAL PARK DURING THE WINTER SNOWMOBILE SEASON. Richard E. Peterson* and Bonnie J. Tyler** * Dept. of Chemistry and Biochemistry **Dept. of Chemical Engineering Montana State University, Bozeman, MT 59717, USA [email protected] Introduction: Particulate, or aerosol, pollution is a complex mixture of organic and inorganic compounds which includes a wide range of sizes and whose composition can vary widely depending on the time of year, geographical location, and both local and long range sources. Aerosol are important because of participation in atmospheric electricity, absorption and scattering of radiation (i.e. sunlight and thus affecting climate and visibility), their role as condensation nuclei for water vapor (and thus affecting precipitation chemistry and pH), and health effects. Particles greater than 2 micrometers in diameter (coarse) are generally formed by mechanical processes while smaller particles (fine) are formed by gas to particle conversion and accumulation/coagulation of these smallest aerosol. Because particles smaller than 2.5 micrometers (USEPA PM2.5) can become trapped deep in the lungs, it is of particular interest to identify toxic substances, such as heavy metals and polyaromatic hydrocarbons, that may be present in particles of this size range. Epidemiological studies have typically used particle size as the metric for identifying adverse health effects of particulate matter (PM), largely because data on PM size is available. Data on particle composition or other characteristics are less well known, if known at all in many cases. We are evaluating the potential for using Time of Flight Secondary Ion Mass Spectroscopy (TOF-SIMS) to study the composition of single particles from atmospheric aerosol.

  • Chapter 8 and 9 – Energy Balances
    CBE2124, Levicky Chapter 8 and 9 – Energy Balances Reference States . Recall that enthalpy and internal energy are always defined relative to a reference state (Chapter 7). When solving energy balance problems, it is therefore necessary to define a reference state for each chemical species in the energy balance (the reference state may be predefined if a tabulated set of data is used such as the steam tables). Example . Suppose water vapor at 300 oC and 5 bar is chosen as a reference state at which Hˆ is defined to be zero. Relative to this state, what is the specific enthalpy of liquid water at 75 oC and 1 bar? What is the specific internal energy of liquid water at 75 oC and 1 bar? (Use Table B. 7). Calculating changes in enthalpy and internal energy. Hˆ and Uˆ are state functions , meaning that their values only depend on the state of the system, and not on the path taken to arrive at that state. IMPORTANT : Given a state A (as characterized by a set of variables such as pressure, temperature, composition) and a state B, the change in enthalpy of the system as it passes from A to B can be calculated along any path that leads from A to B, whether or not the path is the one actually followed. Example . 18 g of liquid water freezes to 18 g of ice while the temperature is held constant at 0 oC and the pressure is held constant at 1 atm. The enthalpy change for the process is measured to be ∆ Hˆ = - 6.01 kJ.

Applying particle filtering in both aggregated and age-structured population compartmental models of pre-vaccination measles Xiaoyan Li1*, Alexander Doroshenko2, Nathaniel D. Osgood1 1 Department of Computer Science, University of Saskatchewan, Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada 2 Department of Medicine, Division of Preventive Medicine, University of Alberta, Edmonton, Alberta, Canada * [email protected] Abstract Measles is a highly transmissible disease and is one of the leading causes of death among young children under 5 globally. While the use of ongoing surveillance data and { recently { dynamic models offer insight on measles dynamics, both suffer notable shortcomings when applied to measles outbreak prediction. In this paper, we apply the Sequential Monte Carlo approach of particle filtering, incorporating reported measles incidence for Saskatchewan during the pre-vaccination era, using an adaptation of a previously contributed measles compartmental model. To secure further insight, we also perform particle filtering on an age structured adaptation of the model in which the population is divided into two interacting age groups { children and adults. The results indicate that, when used with a suitable dynamic model, particle filtering can offer high predictive capacity for measles dynamics and outbreak occurrence in a low vaccination context. We have investigated five particle filtering models in this project. Based on the most competitive model as evaluated by predictive accuracy, we have performed prediction and outbreak classification analysis.

Deep-scattering layer Further, the mesopelagic depths (200–1000 m) host an abundant prey resource known as the deep scattering Transition Zone layer that supports deep diving predators, such as northern elephant seals, beaked whales, and sperm whales. fi mesopelagic sh Female northern elephant seals (Mirounga angustirostris) undertake biannual foraging migrations to this myctophid region where they feed on mesopelagic fish and squid; however, in situ measurements of prey distribution and subsurface chlorophyll abundance, as well as the subsurface oceanographic features in the mesopelagic Transition Zone are limited. While concurrently tracking female elephant seals during their post-molt migration, we conducted a ship-based oceanographic and hydroacoustic survey and used mesopelagic mid-water trawls to sample the deep scattering layer.
