Antarctic 20th Century Accumulation Changes Based on Regional Climate Model Simulations by Klaus Dethloff, Ksenia Glushak, Annette Rinke, Dörthe Handorf

“…Simulations over 4 decades, carried out with a horizontal resolution of 50 km, deliver a realistic simulation of the Antarctic atmospheric circulation, synoptic-scale pressure systems, and the spatial distribution of precipitation minus sublimation (P-E) structures. The simulated P-E pattern is in qualitative agreement with glaciological estimates. …”

Node Detection Using High-Dimensional Fuzzy Parcellation Applied to the Insular Cortex by Ugo Vercelli, Matteo Diano, Tommaso Costa, Andrea Nani, Sergio Duca, Giuliano Geminiani, Alessandro Vercelli, Franco Cauda

“…By employing a high-dimensional functional connectivity-based clustering process, we confirmed the two patterns of connectivity previously described. This method revealed a complex pattern of functional connectivity where the two previously detected insular clusters are subdivided into several other networks, some of which are not commonly associated with the insular cortex, such as the default mode network and parts of the dorsal attentional network. …”

Two for the Road: Measuring Regional Disparity and Agglomeration in Human Development Level and Transportation Infrastructure by Zhiheng Wang, Tao Xing, Daikun Wang, Hongkui Fan, Dongchuan Wang, Yanwang Wu, Qiaozhen Guo, Lina Xiu

“…The results show that (1) NLDI is verified to assess differences in the level of human development among counties in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and to overcome the difficulties of systematically and integrally obtaining socio-economic statistical data. The pattern of human development level in Qinghai-Tibet Plateau presents a “core-periphery” spatial structure with the transportation network as the axis. (2) On the whole, with the improvement of location conditions influenced by transportation infrastructure, the spatial aggregation of human development level is constantly improving, and the spatial disparity continues to decrease. (3) Locally, four spatial interaction patterns of high/low clustering are recognized and analyzed. …”
