3. Investigating aerosol effects on stratocumulus clouds through large-eddy simulation
Abstract : Clouds have a large impact on Earth’s radiative budget by reflecting, absorbing and re-emitting radiation. They thus play a critical role in the climate system. Nevertheless, cloud radiative effects in a changing climate are highly uncertain. READ MORE

5. Dynamic Load Models for Power Systems - Estimation of Time-Varying Parameters During Normal Operation
Abstract : Economic and environmental concerns will slow down the expansion of the transmission system in many countries. The addition of new transmission lines will be few and far between. The de-regulation of the power supply will introduce new power flow patterns on the bulk transmission systems. READ MORE
