text: High elevation headwater catchments are complex hydrological systems that
seasonally buffer water and release it in the form of snow and ice melt, modulating
downstream runoff regimes and water availability. In High Mountain Asia (HMA),
where a wide range of climates from semi-arid to monsoonal exist, the importance
of the cryospheric contributions to the water budget varies with the amount and
seasonal distribution of precipitation. Losses due to evapotranspiration and sublimation
are to date largely unquantified components of the water budget in such catchments,
although they can be comparable in magnitude to glacier melt contributions to
streamflow. 
Here, we simulate the hydrology of three high elevation headwater
catchments in distinct climates in HMA over 10 years using an ecohydrological
model geared towards high-mountain areas including snow and glaciers, forced with
reanalysis data. 
Our results show that evapotranspiration and sublimation
together are most important at the semi-arid site, Kyzylsu, on the northernmost
slopes of the Pamir mountain range. Here, the evaporative loss amounts to 28%
of the water throughput, which we define as the total water added to, or removed
from the water balance within a year. In comparison, evaporative losses are 19%
at the Central Himalayan site Langtang and 13% at the wettest site, 24K, on the
Southeastern Tibetan Plateau. At the three sites, respectively, sublimation removes
15%, 13% and 6% of snowfall, while evapotranspiration removes the equivalent of
76%, 28% and 19% of rainfall. In absolute terms, and across a comparable elevation
range, the highest ET flux is 413 mm yr-1 at 24K, while the highest sublimation
flux is 91 mm yr-1 at Kyzylsu. During warm and dry years, glacier melt was found
to only partially compensate for the annual supply deficit.

text: Die Quantenrotation ist ein spannendes Phänomen, das in vielen verschiedenen
Systemen auftritt, von Molekülen und Atomen bis hin zu subatomaren Teilchen wie
Neutronen und Protonen. Durch den Einsatz von starken Laserpulsen ist es möglich,
die mathematisch anspruchsvolle Topologie der Rotation von Molekülen aufzudecken
und topologisch geschützte Zustände zu erzeugen, die unerwartetes Verhalten zeigen.
Diese Entdeckungen könnten Auswirkungen auf die Molekülphysik und physikalische
Chemie haben und die Entwicklung neuer Technologien ermöglichen. Die Verbindung
von Quantenrotation und Topologie stellt ein aufregendes, interdisziplinäres Forschungsfeld
dar und bietet neue Wege zur Kontrolle und Nutzung von quantenmechanischen Phänomenen.

text: River systems originating from the Upper Indus Basin (UIB) are dominated by
runoff from snow and glacier melt and summer monsoonal rainfall. These water resources
are highly stressed as huge populations of people living in this region depend
on them, including for agriculture, domestic use, and energy production. Projections
suggest that the UIB region will be affected by considerable (yet poorly quantified)
changes to the seasonality and composition of runoff in the future, which are
likely to have considerable impacts on these supplies. Given how directly and
indirectly communities and ecosystems are dependent on these resources and the
growing pressure on them due to ever-increasing demands, the impacts of climate
change pose considerable adaptation challenges. The strong linkages between hydroclimate,
cryosphere, water resources, and human activities within the UIB suggest that
a multi- and inter-disciplinary research approach integrating the social and natural/environmental
sciences is critical for successful adaptation to ongoing and future hydrological
and climate change. Here we use a horizon scanning technique to identify the Top
100 questions related to the most pressing knowledge gaps and research priorities
in social and natural sciences on climate change and water in the UIB. These questions
are on the margins of current thinking and investigation and are clustered into
14 themes, covering three overarching topics of “governance, policy, and sustainable
solutions”, “socioeconomic processes and livelihoods”, and “integrated Earth System
processes”. Raising awareness of these cutting-edge knowledge gaps and opportunities
will hopefully encourage researchers, funding bodies, practitioners, and policy
makers to address them.

text: Glacier health across High Mountain Asia (HMA) is highly heterogeneous and
strongly governed by regional climate, which is variably influenced by monsoon
dynamics and the westerlies. We explore four decades of glacier energy and mass
balance at three climatically distinct sites across HMA by utilising a detailed
land surface model driven by bias-corrected Weather Research and Forecasting meteorological
forcing. All three glaciers have experienced long-term mass losses (ranging from
−0.04 ± 0.09 to −0.59 ± 0.20 m w.e. a−1) consistent with
widespread warming across the region. However, complex and contrasting responses
of glacier energy and mass balance to the patterns of the Indian Summer Monsoon
were evident, largely driven by the role snowfall timing, amount and phase. A
later monsoon onset generates less total snowfall to the glacier in the southeastern
Tibetan Plateau during May–June, augmenting net shortwave radiation and affecting
annual mass balance (−0.5 m w.e. on average compared to early onset years). Conversely,
timing of the monsoon’s arrival has limited impact for the Nepalese Himalaya which
is more strongly governed by the temperature and snowfall amount during the core
monsoon season. In the arid central Tibetan Plateau, a later monsoon arrival results
in a 40 mm (58%) increase of May–June snowfall on average compared to early onset
years, likely driven by the greater interaction of westerly storm events. Meanwhile,
a late monsoon cessation at this site sees an average 200 mm (192%) increase in
late summer precipitation due to monsoonal storms. A trend towards weaker intensity
monsoon conditions in recent decades, combined with long-term warming patterns,
has produced predominantly negative glacier mass balances for all sites (up to
1 m w.e. more mass loss in the Nepalese Himalaya compared to strong monsoon intensity
years) but sub-regional variability in monsoon timing can additionally complicate
this response.

text: Supraglacial debris covers 7% of mountain glacier area globally and generally
reduces glacier surface melt. Enhanced energy absorption at ice cliffs and supraglacial
ponds scattered across the debris surface leads these features to contribute disproportionately
to glacier-wide ablation. However, the degree to which cliffs and ponds actually
increase melt rates remains unclear, as these features have only been studied
in a detailed manner for selected locations, almost exclusively in High Mountain
Asia. In this study we model the surface energy balance for debris-covered ice,
ice cliffs, and supraglacial ponds with a set of automatic weather station records
representing the global prevalence of debris-covered glacier ice. We generate
5000 random sets of values for physical parameters using probability distributions
derived from literature, which we use to investigate relative melt rates and to
isolate the melt responses of debris, cliffs and ponds to the site-specific meteorological
forcing. Modelled sub-debris melt rates are primarily controlled by debris thickness
and thermal conductivity. At a reference thickness of 0.1 m, sub-debris melt rates
vary considerably, differing by up to a factor of four between sites, mainly attributable
to air temperature differences. We find that melt rates for ice cliffs are consistently
2–3× the melt rate for clean glacier ice, but this melt enhancement decays with
increasing clean ice melt rates. Energy absorption at supraglacial ponds is dominated
by latent heat exchange and is therefore highly sensitive to wind speed and relative
humidity, but is generally less than for clean ice. Our results provide reference
melt enhancement factors for melt modelling of debris-covered glacier sites, globally,
while highlighting the need for direct measurement of debris-covered glacier surface
characteristics, physical parameters, and local meteorological conditions at a
variety of sites around the world.

text: The current Chilean megadrought has led to acute water shortages in central
Chile since 2010. Glaciers have provided vital fresh water to the region's rivers,
but the quantity, timing and sustainability of that provision remain unclear.
Here we combine in-situ, remote sensing and climate reanalysis data to show that
from 2010 to 2018 during the megadrought, unsustainable imbalance ablation of
glaciers (ablation not balanced by new snowfall) strongly buffered the late-summer
discharge of the Maipo River, a primary source of water to Santiago. If there
had been no glaciers, water availability would have been reduced from December
through May, with a 31 ± 19% decrease during March. Our results indicate that
while the annual contributions of imbalance ablation to river discharge during
the megadrought have been small compared to those from precipitation and sustainable
balance ablation, they have nevertheless been a substantial input to a hydrological
system that was already experiencing high water stress. The water-equivalent volume
of imbalance ablation generated in the Maipo Basin between 2010 and 2018 was 740
× 106 m3 (19 ± 12 mm yr−1), approximately 3.4 times the capacity of the basin's
El Yeso Reservoir. This is equivalent to 14% of Santiago's potable water use in
that time, while total glacier ablation was equivalent to 59%. We show that glacier
retreat will exacerbate river discharge deficits and further jeopardize water
availability in central Chile if precipitation deficits endure, and conjecture
that these effects will be amplified by climatic warming.

text: Supraglacial debris strongly modulates glacier melt rates and can be decisive
for ice dynamics and mountain hydrology. It is ubiquitous in High-Mountain Asia,
yet because its thickness and supply rate from local topography are poorly known,
our ability to forecast regional glacier change and streamflow is limited. Here
we combined remote sensing and numerical modelling to resolve supraglacial debris
thickness by altitude for 4689 glaciers in High-Mountain Asia, and debris-supply
rate to 4141 of those glaciers. Our results reveal extensively thin supraglacial
debris and high spatial variability in both debris thickness and supply rate.
Debris-supply rate increases with the temperature and slope of debris-supply slopes
regionally, and debris thickness increases as ice flow decreases locally. Our
centennial-scale estimates of debris-supply rate are typically an order of magnitude
or more lower than millennial-scale estimates of headwall-erosion rate from Beryllium-10
cosmogenic nuclides, potentially reflecting episodic debris supply to the region’s
glaciers.

text: Empirical essays of fitness landscapes suggest that they may be rugged, that
is having multiple fitness peaks. Such fitness landscapes, those that have multiple
peaks, necessarily have special local structures, called reciprocal sign epistasis
(Poelwijk et al. in J Theor Biol 272:141–144, 2011). Here, we investigate the
quantitative relationship between the number of fitness peaks and the number of
reciprocal sign epistatic interactions. Previously, it has been shown (Poelwijk
et al. in J Theor Biol 272:141–144, 2011) that pairwise reciprocal sign epistasis
is a necessary but not sufficient condition for the existence of multiple peaks.
Applying discrete Morse theory, which to our knowledge has never been used in
this context, we extend this result by giving the minimal number of reciprocal
sign epistatic interactions required to create a given number of peaks.

text: This paper reviews recent important advances in our understanding of the response
of precipitation extremes to warming from theory and from idealized cloud-resolving
simulations. A theoretical scaling for precipitation extremes has been proposed
and refined in the past decades, allowing to address separately the contributions
from the thermodynamics, the dynamics and the microphysics. Theoretical constraints,
as well as remaining uncertainties, associated with each of these three contributions
to precipitation extremes, are discussed. Notably, although to leading order precipitation
extremes seem to follow the thermodynamic theoretical expectation in idealized
simulations, considerable uncertainty remains regarding the response of the dynamics
and of the microphysics to warming, and considerable departure from this theoretical
expectation is found in observations and in more realistic simulations. We also
emphasize key outstanding questions, in particular the response of mesoscale convective
organization to warming. Observations suggest that extreme rainfall often comes
from an organized system in very moist environments. Improved understanding of
the physical processes behind convective organization is needed in order to achieve
accurate extreme rainfall prediction in our current, and in a warming climate.

text: Mathematical models are of fundamental importance in the understanding of
complex population dynamics. For instance, they can be used to predict the population
evolution starting from different initial conditions or to test how a system responds
to external perturbations. For this analysis to be meaningful in real applications,
however, it is of paramount importance to choose an appropriate model structure
and to infer the model parameters from measured data. While many parameter inference
methods are available for models based on deterministic ordinary differential
equations, the same does not hold for more detailed individual-based models. Here
we consider, in particular, stochastic models in which the time evolution of the
species abundances is described by a continuous-time Markov chain. These models
are governed by a master equation that is typically difficult to solve. Consequently,
traditional inference methods that rely on iterative evaluation of parameter likelihoods
are computationally intractable. The aim of this paper is to present recent advances
in parameter inference for continuous-time Markov chain models, based on a moment
closure approximation of the parameter likelihood, and to investigate how these
results can help in understanding, and ultimately controlling, complex systems
in ecology. Specifically, we illustrate through an agricultural pest case study
how parameters of a stochastic individual-based model can be identified from measured
data and how the resulting model can be used to solve an optimal control problem
in a stochastic setting. In particular, we show how the matter of determining
the optimal combination of two different pest control methods can be formulated
as a chance constrained optimization problem where the control action is modeled
as a state reset, leading to a hybrid system formulation.

text: Central Asian water resources largely depend on melt water generated in the
Pamir and Tien Shan mountain ranges. To estimate future water availability in
this region, it is necessary to use climate projections to estimate the future
glacier extent and volume. In this study, we evaluate the impact of uncertainty
in climate change projections on the future glacier extent in the Amu and Syr
Darya river basins. To this end we use the latest climate change projections generated
for the upcoming IPCC report (CMIP5) and, for comparison, projections used in
the fourth IPCC assessment (CMIP3). With these projections we force a regionalized
glacier mass balance model, and estimate changes in the basins' glacier extent
as a function of the glacier size distribution in the basins and projected temperature
and precipitation. This glacier mass balance model is specifically developed for
implementation in large scale hydrological models, where the spatial resolution
does not allow for simulating individual glaciers and data scarcity is an issue.
Although the CMIP5 ensemble results in greater regional warming than the CMIP3
ensemble and the range in projections for temperature as well as precipitation
is wider for the CMIP5 than for the CMIP3, the spread in projections of future
glacier extent in Central Asia is similar for both ensembles. This is because
differences in temperature rise are small during periods of maximum melt (July–September)
while differences in precipitation change are small during the period of maximum
accumulation (October–February). However, the model uncertainty due to parameter
uncertainty is high, and has roughly the same importance as uncertainty in the
climate projections. Uncertainty about the size of the decline in glacier extent
remains large, making estimates of future Central Asian glacier evolution and
downstream water availability uncertain.

text: Accurate quantification of the spatial distribution of precipitation in mountain
regions is crucial for assessments of water resources and for the understanding
of high-altitude hydrology, yet it is one of the largest unknowns due to the lack
of high-altitude observations. The Hunza basin in Pakistan contains very large
glacier systems, which, given the melt, cannot persist unless precipitation (snow
input) is much higher than what is observed at the meteorological stations, mostly
located in mountain valleys. Several studies, therefore, suggest strong positive
vertical precipitation lapse rates; in the present study, we quantify this lapse
rate by using glaciers as a proxy. We assume a neutral mass balance for the glaciers
for the period from 2001 to 2003, and we inversely model the precipitation lapse
by balancing the total accumulation in the catchment area and the ablation over
the glacier area for the 50 largest glacier systems in the Hunza basin in the
Karakoram. Our results reveal a vertical precipitation lapse rate that equals
0.21 ± 0.12% m−1, with a maximum precipitation at an elevation of 5500 masl. We
showed that the total annual basin precipitation (828 mm) is 260% higher than
what is estimated based on interpolated observations (319 mm); this has major
consequences for hydrological modeling and water resource assessments in general.
Our results were validated by using previously published studies on individual
glaciers as well as the water balance of the Hunza basin. The approach is more
widely applicable in mountain ranges where precipitation measurements at high
altitude are lacking.

text: "The factors governing the rate of change in the amount of atmospheric water
vapor are analyzed in simulations of climate change. The global-mean amount of
water vapor is estimated to increase at a differential rate of 7.3% K − 1 with
respect to global-mean surface air temperature in the multi-model mean. Larger
rates of change result if the fractional change is evaluated over a finite change
in temperature (e.g., 8.2% K − 1 for a 3 K warming), and rates of change of zonal-mean
column water vapor range from 6 to 12% K − 1 depending on latitude.\r\nClausius–Clapeyron
scaling is directly evaluated using an invariant distribution of monthly-mean
relative humidity, giving a rate of 7.4% K − 1 for global-mean water vapor. There
are deviations from Clausius–Clapeyron scaling of zonal-mean column water vapor
in the tropics and mid-latitudes, but they largely cancel in the global mean.
A purely thermodynamic scaling based on a saturated troposphere gives a higher
global rate of 7.9% K − 1.\r\nSurface specific humidity increases at a rate of
5.7% K − 1, considerably lower than the rate for global-mean water vapor. Surface
specific humidity closely follows Clausius–Clapeyron scaling over ocean. But there
are widespread decreases in surface relative humidity over land (by more than
1% K − 1 in many regions), and it is argued that decreases of this magnitude could
result from the land/ocean contrast in surface warming."
