Two species competition with a 'non-smooth' Allee mechanism: applications to soybean aphid population dynamics under climate change by Aniket Banerjee, Urvashi Verma, Margaret T. Lewis, Rana D. Parshad

“…Motivated by these empirical results, we considered the effect of non-smooth Allee type mechanisms, for the two species Lotka-Volterra competition model. We showed that this mechanism can alter classical competitive dynamics in both the ordinary differential equation (ODE) as well as the spatially explicit setting. …”

Emergence of the North Pacific heat storage pattern delayed by decadal wind-driven redistribution by Jing Duan, Yuanlong Li, Yilong Lyu, Zhao Jing, Fan Wang

“…Changes in surface winds drove meridional heat redistribution via Rossby wave dynamics, leading to regional warming and cooling structures and a more complex historical heat storage than models predict. Despite this, enhanced anthropogenic warming has already been emerging in marginal seas along the North Pacific basin rim, for which we shall prepare for the pressing consequences such as increasing marine heatwaves.…”

AMR‐Wind: A Performance‐Portable, High‐Fidelity Flow Solver for Wind Farm Simulations by Michael B. Kuhn, Marc T. Henry de Frahan, Prakash Mohan, Georgios Deskos, Matt Churchfield, Lawrence Cheung, Ashesh Sharma, Ann Almgren, Shreyas Ananthan, Michael J. Brazell, Luis A. Martínez‐Tossas, Regis Thedin, Jon Rood, Philip Sakievich, Ganesh Vijayakumar, Weiqun Zhang, Michael Sprague

“…The verification studies, which include a novel actuator line test case, indicate that AMR‐Wind is spatially and temporally second‐order accurate. The validation studies demonstrate that the key physics capabilities implemented in the code, including actuator disk models, actuator line models, turbulence models, and large eddy simulation (LES) models for atmospheric boundary layers, perform well in comparison to reference data from established computational tools and theory. …”

Characterizing Soil and Bedrock Water Use of Native California Vegetation by Alan L. Flint, Lorraine E. Flint, Michelle A. Stern, David D. Ackerly, Ryan Boynton, James H. Thorne

“…Hydrology models typically are not able to address water availability below the mapped soil profile, but we refined a landscape hydrology model, the Basin Characterization Model, by balancing measures of actual evapotranspiration (AET) with modeled subsurface soil water holding capacity, including bedrock storage. …”

Revisiting cosmic acceleration with DESI BAO by Jincheng Wang, Hongwei Yu, Puxun Wu

“…Our findings indicate significant deviations from the predictions of the $$\Lambda $$ Λ CDM model. Specifically, DESI BAO, DESI BAO + CMB, DESI BAO + CMB + Union3, and DESI BAO + CMB + DESY5 all provide strong evidence for a slowing down of cosmic acceleration at late times, as indicated by $$j(0) < 0$$ j ( 0 ) < 0 at more than 1 $$\sigma $$ σ confidence level, within the framework of $$w_0w_a$$ w 0 w a CDM model. …”
