We present a mathematical model describing the evolution of sea ice and meltwater during summer. The system is described by two coupled partial differential equations for the ice thickness h(x,t) and pond depth w(x,t) fields. The model is similar, in principle, to the one put forward by Luthije et al. (2006), but it features i) a modified melting term, ii) a non-uniform seepage rate of meltwater through the porous ice medium and a minimal coupling with the atmosphere via a surface wind shear term, ?s (Scagliarini et al. 2020).

The accurate characterization of cortical functional connectivity from Magnetoencephalography (MEG) data remains a challenging problem due to the subjective nature of the analysis, which requires several decisions at each step of the analysis pipeline, such as the choice of a source estimation algorithm, a connectivity metric and a cortical parcellation, to name but a few. Recent studies have emphasized the importance of selecting the regularization parameter in minimum norm estimates with caution, as variations in its value can result in significant differences in connectivity estimates.

This paper considers a Multiple Objective variant of the Critical Disruption Path problem to extend its suitability in a range of security operations relying on path-based network interdiction, including flight pattern optimisation for surveillance.

Background: The oral food challenge test (OFC) represents the gold standard for the diagnosis of food allergy (FA). It is also necessary for the safe reintroduction of the allergen into the diet of the patient. However, it is burdened with serious side effects.

This article is concerned with the rigorous justification of the hydrostatic limit for continuously stratified incompressible fluids under the influence of gravity. The main peculiarity of this work with respect to previous studies is that no (regularizing) viscosity contribution is added to the fluid-dynamics equations and only diffusivity effects are included.

Preservation of the angle of reflection when an internal gravity wave hits a sloping boundary generates a focusing mechanism if the angle between the direction of propagation of the incident wave and the horizontal is close to the slope inclination (near-critical reflection). This paper provides an explicit description of the leading approximation of the unique Leray solution to the near-critical reflection of internal waves from a slope in the form of a beam wave.
