Early 21st century snow cover state over the western river basins of the Indus River system

Shabeh ul Hasson, Valerio Lucarini, Mobushir Riaz Khan +3

In this paper we assess the snow cover and its dynamics for the western river basins of the Indus River system and their subbasins located in Afghanistan, China, India and Pakistan…

On using Extreme Values to detect global stability thresholds in multi-stable systems: The case of transitional plane Couette flow

Davide Faranda, Valerio Lucarini, Paul Manneville +1

Extreme Value Theory (EVT) is exploited to determine the global stability threshold of plane Couette flow --the flow of a viscous fluid in the space between two parallel plat…

Extreme value statistics for dynamical systems with noise

Davide Faranda, Jorge Milhazes Freitas, Valerio Lucarini +2

We study the distribution of maxima (Extreme Value Statistics) for sequences of observables computed along orbits generated by random transformations. The underlying, deterministic…

Multi-level Dynamical Systems: Connecting the Ruelle Response Theory and the Mori-Zwanzig Approach

Jeroen Wouters, Valerio Lucarini

In this paper we consider the problem of deriving approximate autonomous dynamics for a number of variables of a dynamical system, which are weakly coupled to the remaining variabl…

Nonequilibrium thermodynamics of circulation regimes in optically-thin, dry atmospheres

Salvatore Pascale, Francesco Ragone, Valerio Lucarini +2

An extensive analysis of an optically-thin, dry atmosphere at different values of the thermal Rossby number Ro and of the Taylor number Ff is per- formed with a general circulation…

Bistability of the climate around the habitable zone: a thermodynamic investigation

Robert Boschi, Valerio Lucarini, Salvatore Pascale

The goal of this paper is to explore the potential multistability of the climate of a planet around the habitable zone. A thorough investigation of the thermodynamics of the climat…
