We present a survey of computational and applied mathematical techniques that have the potential to contribute to the next generation of high-fidelity, multi-scale climate simulations. Examples of the climate science problems that can be investigated with more depth with these computational improvements include the capture of remote forcings of localized hydrological extreme events, an accurate representation of cloud features over a range of spatial and temporal scales, and parallel, large ensembles of simulations to more effectively explore model sensitivities and uncertainties.
Numerical techniques, such as adaptive mesh refinement, implicit time integration, and separate treatment of fast physical time scales are enabling improved accuracy and fidelity in simulation of dynamics and allowing more complete representations of climate features at the global scale. At the same time, partnerships with computer science teams have focused on taking advantage of evolving computer architectures such as many-core processors and GPUs. As a result, approaches which were previously considered prohibitively costly have become both more efficient and scalable. In combination, progress in these three critical areas is poised to transform climate modeling in the coming decades.

Numerical and analytical studies of single and multiphase starting jets and p...Ruo-Qian (Roger) Wang
Multiphase starting jets and plumes are widely observed in nature and engineering systems. An environmental engineering example is open-water disposal of sediments. The present study numerically simulates such starting jets/plumes using Large Eddy Simulations. The numerical scheme is first validated for single phase plumes, and the relationship between buoyancy and penetration rate is revealed. Then, the trailing stem behind the main cloud is identified, and the the formation number (critical ratio U[delta]t/D, where U, D and [delta]t are discharge velocity, diameter and duration) that determines its presence is determined as a function of plume buoyancy. A unified relationship for starting plumes is developed to describe behaviors from negative to positive buoyancy. In multiphase simulations, two-phase phenomena are clarified including phase separation and the effect of particle release conditions. The most popular similarity law to scale up from the lab to the field (Cloud number scaling) is validated by a series of simulations. Finally, an example of sediment disposal in the field is given based on the present study. In related theoretical analysis, an analytical model on the vortex ring is developed and found to agree well with the direct numerical simulation results.
Pore scale dynamics and the interpretation of flow processes - Martin Blunt, Imperial College London, at UKCCSRC specialist meeting Flow and Transport for CO2 Storage, 29-30 October 2015
Landslides of any type, and particularly soil slips, pose a great threat in mountainous and steep terrain environ- ments. One of the major triggering mechanisms for slope failures in shallow soils is the build-up of soil pore water pressure resulting in a decrease of effective stress. However, infiltration may have other effects both before and after slope failure. Especially, on steep slopes in shallow soils, soil slips can be triggered by a rapid drop in the apparent cohesion following a decrease in matric suction when a wetting front penetrates into the soil without generating positive pore pressures. These types of failures are very frequent in pre-alpine and alpine landscapes. The key factor for a realistic prediction of rainfall-induced landslides are the interdependence of shear strength and suction and the monitoring of suction changes during the cyclic wetting (due to infiltration) and drying (due to percolation and evaporation) processes. The non-unique relationship between suction and water content, expressed by the Soil Water Retention Curve, results in different values of suction and, therefore, of soil shear strength for the same water content, depending on whether the soil is being wetted (during storms) or dried (during inter-storm periods). We developed a physically based distributed in space and continuous in time model for the simulation of the hydrological triggering of shallow landslides at scales larger than a single slope. In this modeling effort particular weight is given to the modeling of hydrological processes in order to investigate the role of hydrologi- cal triggering mechanisms on soil changes leading to slip occurrences. Specifically, the 3D flow of water and the resulting water balance in the unsaturated and saturated zone is modeled using a Cellular Automata framework. The infinite slope analysis is coupled to the hydrological component of the model for the computation of slope stability. For the computation of the Factor of Safety a unified concept for effective stress under both saturated and unsaturated conditions has been used (Lu Ning and Godt Jonathan, WRR, 2010). A test case of a serious landslide event in Switzerland is investigated to assess the plausibility of the model and to verify its perfomance.

Exploring Innovations in Data Repository Solutions - Insights from the U.S. G...Globus
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) has made substantial investments in meeting evolving scientific, technical, and policy driven demands on storing, managing, and delivering data. As these demands continue to grow in complexity and scale, the USGS must continue to explore innovative solutions to improve its management, curation, sharing, delivering, and preservation approaches for large-scale research data. Supporting these needs, the USGS has partnered with the University of Chicago-Globus to research and develop advanced repository components and workflows leveraging its current investment in Globus. The primary outcome of this partnership includes the development of a prototype enterprise repository, driven by USGS Data Release requirements, through exploration and implementation of the entire suite of the Globus platform offerings, including Globus Flow, Globus Auth, Globus Transfer, and Globus Search. This presentation will provide insights into this research partnership, introduce the unique requirements and challenges being addressed and provide relevant project progress.
How to Position Your Globus Data Portal for Success Ten Good PracticesGlobus
Science gateways allow science and engineering communities to access shared data, software, computing services, and instruments. Science gateways have gained a lot of traction in the last twenty years, as evidenced by projects such as the Science Gateways Community Institute (SGCI) and the Center of Excellence on Science Gateways (SGX3) in the US, The Australian Research Data Commons (ARDC) and its platforms in Australia, and the projects around Virtual Research Environments in Europe. A few mature frameworks have evolved with their different strengths and foci and have been taken up by a larger community such as the Globus Data Portal, Hubzero, Tapis, and Galaxy. However, even when gateways are built on successful frameworks, they continue to face the challenges of ongoing maintenance costs and how to meet the ever-expanding needs of the community they serve with enhanced features. It is not uncommon that gateways with compelling use cases are nonetheless unable to get past the prototype phase and become a full production service, or if they do, they don't survive more than a couple of years. While there is no guaranteed pathway to success, it seems likely that for any gateway there is a need for a strong community and/or solid funding streams to create and sustain its success. With over twenty years of examples to draw from, this presentation goes into detail for ten factors common to successful and enduring gateways that effectively serve as best practices for any new or developing gateway.

Providing Globus Services to Users of JASMIN for Environmental Data AnalysisGlobus
JASMIN is the UK’s high-performance data analysis platform for environmental science, operated by STFC on behalf of the UK Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). In addition to its role in hosting the CEDA Archive (NERC’s long-term repository for climate, atmospheric science & Earth observation data in the UK), JASMIN provides a collaborative platform to a community of around 2,000 scientists in the UK and beyond, providing nearly 400 environmental science projects with working space, compute resources and tools to facilitate their work. High-performance data transfer into and out of JASMIN has always been a key feature, with many scientists bringing model outputs from supercomputers elsewhere in the UK, to analyse against observational or other model data in the CEDA Archive. A growing number of JASMIN users are now realising the benefits of using the Globus service to provide reliable and efficient data movement and other tasks in this and other contexts. Further use cases involve long-distance (intercontinental) transfers to and from JASMIN, and collecting results from a mobile atmospheric radar system, pushing data to JASMIN via a lightweight Globus deployment. We provide details of how Globus fits into our current infrastructure, our experience of the recent migration to GCSv5.4, and of our interest in developing use of the wider ecosystem of Globus services for the benefit of our user community.

Climate Science Flows: Enabling Petabyte-Scale Climate Analysis with the Eart...Globus
The Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) is a global network of data servers that archives and distributes the planet’s largest collection of Earth system model output for thousands of climate and environmental scientists worldwide. Many of these petabyte-scale data archives are located in proximity to large high-performance computing (HPC) or cloud computing resources, but the primary workflow for data users consists of transferring data, and applying computations on a different system. As a part of the ESGF 2.0 US project (funded by the United States Department of Energy Office of Science), we developed pre-defined data workflows, which can be run on-demand, capable of applying many data reduction and data analysis to the large ESGF data archives, transferring only the resultant analysis (ex. visualizations, smaller data files). In this talk, we will showcase a few of these workflows, highlighting how Globus Flows can be used for petabyte-scale climate analysis.

A Comprehensive Look at Generative AI in Retail App Testing.pdfkalichargn70th171
Traditional software testing methods are being challenged in retail, where customer expectations and technological advancements continually shape the landscape. Enter generative AI—a transformative subset of artificial intelligence technologies poised to revolutionize software testing.
In software engineering, the right architecture is essential for robust, scalable platforms. Wix has undergone a pivotal shift from event sourcing to a CRUD-based model for its microservices. This talk will chart the course of this pivotal journey.
Event sourcing, which records state changes as immutable events, provided robust auditing and "time travel" debugging for Wix Stores' microservices. Despite its benefits, the complexity it introduced in state management slowed development. Wix responded by adopting a simpler, unified CRUD model. This talk will explore the challenges of event sourcing and the advantages of Wix's new "CRUD on steroids" approach, which streamlines API integration and domain event management while preserving data integrity and system resilience.
Participants will gain valuable insights into Wix's strategies for ensuring atomicity in database updates and event production, as well as caching, materialization, and performance optimization techniques within a distributed system.
Join us to discover how Wix has mastered the art of balancing simplicity and extensibility, and learn how the re-adoption of the modest CRUD has turbocharged their development velocity, resilience, and scalability in a high-growth environment.

• Perspective: most of XBeach funtionality available in flexible-
mesh environment soon

Runup and overtopping for steep profiles
• Use of nonhydrostatic XBeach validated against lots of lab data
Runup on complex profile Dike overtopping CLASH

Bigger, better, faster....
• Improvement of MPI parallellization
• Two instead of one row/column overlap between domains ->
fewer variables to pass
• Much more accurate
• Reasonable scaling up to 128 processors
• Nonhydrostatic model and stationary wave model now also
work with MPI
• Pretty much the default option thanks to Willem Vermin

Multi-dir vs single-dir wave propagation
• Multi-dir (standard XBeach):
• Wave refraction resolved as propagation through theta-space
• Leads to excessive reduction of groupiness for directionally spread waves
• Single-dir:
• Solves energy balance along mean wave directions

Single vs. multi-direction approach
+
Roughly 3 times faster
Wave group patterns less smoothed out
Likely higher IG waves in 2DH
May solve problems reported in Stockdon et al 2014
-
Will only work where stationary approach works, viz. not too
curved grids

Going to longer timescales – coupling Delft3D
and XBeach
• Example development of Wilderness Breach after Hurricane
Sandy
• PhD Maarten van Ormondt (Deltares/IHE)
• Competing effects of tides wind, waves, infragravity waves
• Delft3D for moderate conditions, XBeach for storms

Building better berms
• Problem: XBeach does not like steep beaches as are often
present with relatively coarse sediments
• Example: Praia de Faro,
standard settings

Approaches
• Improve non-hydrostatic, wave-resolving modeling of
processes in swash zone
• Breaker turbulence
• Sheet flow behaviour
• In/exfiltration
• Vertical velocities... Much fundamental work to do
• See presentation Chris Daley
• Nudge XBeach- surfbeat to given slope in swash zone
• Swash zone narrowly defined as H/h>1
• Add transport term depending on difference between actual and target
slope
• Works like a charm
