Comparing Three Approaches to the Inducing Source Setting for the Ground Electromagnetic Field Modeling due to Space Weather Events by Elena Marshalko, Mikhail Kruglyakov, Alexey Kuvshinov, Liisa Juusola, Norah Kaggwa Kwagala, Elena Sokolova, Vyacheslav Pilipenko

“…We conclude that ground magnetic field perturbations are reproduced more accurately using the source constructed via the SECS method compared to the source obtained on the basis of MHD simulation outputs. We also show that the difference between the GEF modeled using laterally nonuniform source and plane wave approximation is substantial in Fennoscandia.…”

The crane radar: Development and deployment of an operational eco-digital twin by K. De Koning

“…By showing an example of the crane radar, a real-time digital twin of the common crane (Grus grus) migration, this paper illustrates what digital twins could look like in ecology, and which challenges modellers face towards actual deployment of their digital twin in an operational environment.The most important challenges identified here are: ex ante quality and error control of the input data; accounting for time lags between observations and data availability; harmonising the updating frequencies and temporal resolutions of models and data; developing robust model/software code to keep digital twins alive; the necessity of learning new skills for ecological modellers; and effectively communicating digital twin outputs to stakeholders. A real quantitative evaluation of the contribution of the crane radar to operational decision making is, however, still missing.…”
