Towards Energy-Balance Closure with a Model of Dispersive Heat Fluxes
In the last decades the energy-balance-closure problem has been thoroughly investigated from different angles, resulting in approaches to reduce but...
-
Evaluation of energy consistent entrainment rate closure for cloudy updrafts
In the Earth’s atmosphere, Cumulus clouds are often modeled as an ensemble of statistically stationary moist plumes in a stratified environment. The...

Real-Time Rendering Closure Method for Continuous Cutting of Multilevel TIN Geological Models
In the field of geotechnical engineering, creating and successfully cutting a three-dimensional geological model is a crucial task for digital and...
-
Closure of Earth’s Global Seasonal Cycle of Energy Storage
The global seasonal cycle of energy in Earth’s climate system is quantified using observations and reanalyses. After removing long-term trends, net...
