This describes the components of JGrass-NewAGE, the system we went to develop for having a flexible set of modelling solutions to forecast the water cycle budgets of any basin.
Historical and Contemporary Trends in the Size, Drift, and Color of Jupiterʼs...Sérgio Sacani
Observations of Jupiter’s Great Red Spot (GRS) span more than 150 years. This allows for careful measurements
of its size and drift rate. High spatial resolution spacecraft data also allow tracking of its spectral characteristics and
internal dynamics and structure. The GRS continues to shrink in longitudinal length at an approximately linear rate
of 0°.194 yr−1 and in latitudinal width at 0°.048 yr−1. Its westward drift rate (relative to System III W. longitude)
has increased from ∼0°.26/day in the 1980s to ∼0°.36/day currently. Since 2014, the GRS’s short wavelength
(<650 nm) reflectance has continued to decrease, while it has become brighter at 890 nm, indicating a change in
clouds/haze at high altitudes. In addition, its north–south color asymmetry has decreased, and the dark core has
become smaller. Internal velocities have increased on its east and west edges, and decreased on the north and south,
resulting in decreased relative vorticity and circulation. The GRS’s color changes from 2014 to 2017 may be
explained by changes in stretching vorticity or divergence acting to balance the decrease in relative vorticity.

Almost the same as the talk given to Ph.D. students one year ago. It covers the problem of research reproducibility and the tools for doing it. First comes some "theoretical" arguments, then the enumeration of some tools.

USING E-INFRASTRUCTURES FOR BIODIVERSITY CONSERVATION - Module 4Gianpaolo Coro
An e-Infrastructure is a distributed network of service nodes, residing on multiple sites and managed by one or more organizations. e-Infrastructures allow scientists residing at distant places to collaborate. They offer a multiplicity of facilities as-a-service, supporting data sharing and usage at different levels of abstraction, e.g. data transfer, data harmonization, data processing workflows etc. e-Infrastructures are gaining an important place in the field of biodiversity conservation. Their computational capabilities help scientists to reuse models, obtain results in shorter time and share these results with other colleagues. They are also used to access several and heterogeneous biodiversity catalogues.
In this course, the D4Science e-Infrastructure will be used to conduct experiments in the field of biodiversity conservation. D4Science hosts models and contributions by several international organizations involved in the biodiversity conservation field. The course will give students an overview of the models, the practices and the methods that large international organizations like FAO and UNESCO apply by means of D4Science. At the same time, the course will introduce students to the basic concepts under e-Infrastructures, Virtual Research Environments, data sharing and experiments reproducibility.
Evaluation of Groundwater Resource Potential using GIS and Remote Sensing App...IJERA Editor
Environment and Development are the two wheels of the cart. However, they become antagonists at some
points. It has been witnessed many a times that development is done at the cost of environment. Analysis and
assessment tools like GIS along with Remote Sensing have proved to be very efficient and effective and hence
useful for management of natural resources. Groundwater is a precious resource of limited extent. In order to
ensure a judicious use of groundwater, proper evaluation is required. There is an urgent need of planned and
optimal development of water resources. An appropriate strategy is required to develop water resources with
planning based on conjunctive use of surface and subsurface water resources. Integrated remote sensing and GIS
can provide the appropriate platform for convergent analysis of diverse data sets for decision making in
groundwater management and planning. Sustainable water resources development and management necessarily
depends on proper planning, implementation, operation and maintenance. The interpretation of remote sensing
data in conjunction with conventional data and sufficient ground truth information makes it possible to identify
and outline various ground features such as geological structures, geomorphic features and their hydrologic
characters that may serve as direct or indirect indicators of the presence of ground and surface water. Remotely
sensed data provides unbiased information on geology, geomorphology, structural pattern and recharging
conditions, which logically define the groundwater regime of an area. Groundwater resource potential has been
evaluated in Pulivendula-Sanivaripalli, Kadapa district, Andhra Pradesh, India, using remote sensing and
Geographic information system. Under this study, three thematic maps viz. Geological map (Lithology and
Structure), Geomorphological map and Hydro morphological maps were prepared. These thematic maps have
been integrated with the help of GIS. Appropriate weightage has been assigned to various factors controlling
occurrence of groundwater to assess the groundwater potential in each segment of the study area. The area has
been classified into high potential, moderate potential, low potential and non-potential zones landforms ground
water development on the basis of hydromorphological studies. Some of the favorable locations have been
suggested to impound the excessive run off so as to augment the ground water resources of the area.

This is the presentation given for the admission to his second year of Ph.D. studies by Michele Bottazzi. Besides sumamrizing the work done during the first year, Michele traces his pathways into the second year with an abrupt change of direction towards simulating and discussion transpiration from plants.
A five-year National Science Foundation-funded Research Coordination Network (RCN), the “OceanObs” RCN, is currently in its third year. The RCN, through a series of working groups continues to focus on key issues in ocean observations. Two outcomes are highlighted in this presentation. Recommendations for improvements in the joint use of in situ and remote sensing were developed by one of the RCN’s working groups; an exemplar use case considered observation of coastal waters. An RCN supported working group examined the maturity of sensors for ocean biology observations. This presentation reviews the outcomes of these working groups.
Listed are few questions related to the content, process, and structure for each paper explored in this presentation and the questions are meant to facilitate in-class discussions. Discussions were facilitated by Richard Maclean and Jenkins Macedo.

Abstract:
Quantitative-spatial analysis has been applied to 295 samples of shallow groundwater quality data from Bandung-Soreang Groundwater Basin (BSGwB) taken in 1997, 1998, 2007, 2010, and 2011. This paper discuss the use of variogram using geoR and generalised additive model (GAM) using mgcv R-package to identify the spatial distribution and mixing process betwee groundwater and Cikapundung river water. The variograms show significant water quality trend in north-south direction, and in the direction to the Cikapundung River. From the GAM tests using gaussian and gamma family, some significant elements can be identified: (1) geological control from Fe, Mn, Na concentration; (2) agricultural control from NO2, NO3 concentration; and (3) other surficial control from EC, CO3, CO2, SO4 concentration. Both analysis suggest the close interaction between groundwater and river water and the occurrence of mixing between both.
