    The global water resources model WaterGAP v2.2e - model output for ISIMIP3b simulation phase with alternative PET method
    Assessing global freshwater resources and human water use is of value for a number of needs but challenging. The global water use and water availability model WaterGAP has been in development since 1996 and has served a range of applications such as assessments of global water resources and water stress, also under the impact of climate change, drought hazard quantification, Life Cycle Assessments, water (over)use and consequently depletion of water resources and a better understanding of terrestrial water storage variations (jointly with satellite observations). Here, the reader can download model output for the time period 2015-2100 that was computed by driving WaterGAP v2.2e by in total 8 GCM input datasets (climate forcings) that were generated in the ISIMIP context phase 3b (https://www.isimip.org). The data provided here are created in a run with a specific option that uses an alternative method for calculating potential evapotranspiration to approximate the climate change effect to future evapotranspiration and runoff changes (for details see the model description paper of v2.2e, currently in revision 10.5194/gmd-2023-213).

    Assessing Groundwater Drought Hazard in the Case of Groundwater Storage Trends caused by Human Water Use as well as Climate Variability and Change - Data set
    Over the last decades, increasing groundwater abstractions, and to a lesser extent climate variability and change, have led to groundwater depletion (GWD), especially in major irrigation areas. Such negative trends in groundwater storage (GWS) are problematic in the context of groundwater drought detection since they can superimpose climate-induced drought signals including climate-induced groundwater pumping. As this is currently not considered in large-scale drought early warning systems (LDEWSs), we used time series of monthly GWS from the global hydrological model WaterGAP 2.2e to investigate how groundwater drought can best be quantified in an LDEWS covering GWD regions. Groundwater drought hazard indicators (GDHIs) based on three variants of GWS were analyzed: (1) GWS as impacted by human water use (GWS_ant), (2) naturalized GWS assuming no human water use (GWS_nat), and (3) GWS_ltc, in which the linear trend of GWS_ant is removed. Here, the reader can download 1) monthly time series of GWS_nat during 1980-2019, 2) GDHIs assessed in the study, 3) the R scripts for computing the indicators and other data (including required input data), and 4) WaterGAP-related data (e.g., landmask, big cities), and other meta data (e.g., GWD grid cells and LTC grid cells). WaterGAP 2.2e model output from an anthropogenic model run is available at https://doi.org/10.25716/GUDE.0TNY-KJPG.

    Monolithically integrated, antenna-coupled field-effect transistors (TeraFETs) are rapid and sensitive detectors for the terahertz range (0.3-10 THz) that can operate at room temperature. We conducted experimental characterizations of a single patch-antenna coupled TeraFET optimized for 3.4 THz operation and its integration into an 8×8 multi-element detector configuration. In this configuration, the entire TeraFET array operates as a unified detector element, combining the output signals of all detector elements. Both detectors were realized using a mature commercial Si-CMOS 65-nm process node. Our experimental characterization employed single-mode Quantum-Cascade Lasers (QCLs) emitting at 2.85 THz and 3.4 THz. The 8x8 multi-element detector yields two major improvements for sensitive power detection experiments. First, the larger detector area simplifies alignment and enhances signal stability. Second, the reduced detector impedance enabled the implementation of a TeraFET+QCL system capable of providing a -3 dB modulation bandwidth up to 21 MHz, which is currently limited primarily by the chosen readout circuitry. Finally, we validate the system’s performance by providing high resolution gas spectroscopy data for methanol vapor around 3.4 THz, where a detection limit of 1.6e-5 absorbance, or 2.6e11 molecules/cm3 was estimated under optimal coupling conditions.

    Reverse quantum annealing assisted by forward annealing
    Quantum annealers conventionally use forward annealing to generate heuristic solutions. Reverse annealing can potentially generate better solutions but necessitates an appropriate initial state. Ways to find such states are generally unknown or highly problem dependent, offer limited success and severely restrict the scope of reverse annealing. We propose a general method that improves the overall solution quality and quantity by feeding reverse annealing with low quality solutions obtained from forward annealing. Experimental demonstration of solving the graph coloring problem using the D-Wave quantum annealers shows that our method is able to convert invalid solutions obtained from forward annealing to at least one valid solution obtained after assisted reverse annealing for 57% of 459 random Erdős-Rényi graphs. Our method significantly outperforms random initial states, obtains more unique solutions on average, and widens the applicability of reverse annealing. Although the average number of valid solutions obtained drops exponentially with the problem size, a scaling analysis for the graph coloring problem shows that our method effectively extends the computational reach of conventional forward annealing using reverse annealing.

    Structural response of G protein binding to the cyclodepsipeptide inhibitor FR900359 probed by NMR spectroscopy
    2024-07-04
    The cyclodepsipeptide FR900359 (FR) and its analogs are able to selectively inhibit the class of Gq proteins by blocking GDP/GTP exchange. The inhibitor binding site of Gq has been characterized by X-ray crystallography, and various binding and functional studies have determined binding kinetics and mode of inhibition. Here we investigate isotope-labeled FR bound to the membrane-anchored G protein heterotrimer by solid-state nuclear magnetic resonance (ssNMR) and in solution by liquid-state NMR. The resulting data allowed us to identify regions of the inhibitor which show especially pronounced effects upon binding and revealed a generally rigid binding mode in the cis conformation under native-like conditions. The inclusion of the membrane environment allowed us to show a deep penetration of FR into the lipid bilayer illustrating a possible access mode of FR into the cell. Dynamic nuclear polarization (DNP)-enhanced ssNMR was used to observe the structural response of specific segments of the Gα subunit to inhibitor binding. This revealed rigidification of the switch I binding site and an allosteric response in the α5 helix as well as suppression of structural changes induced by nucleotide exchange due to inhibition by FR. Our NMR studies of the FR-G protein complex conducted directly within a native membrane environment provide important insights into the inhibitors access via the lipid membrane, binding mode, and structural allosteric effects.

    A j_eff 12 Kitaev material on the triangular lattice: The case of NaRuO2
    Motivated by recent reports of a quantum disordered ground state in the triangular lattice compound NaRuO$_2$, we derive a $j_{\rm eff}=1/2$ magnetic model for this system by means of first-principles calculations. The pseudospin Hamiltonian is dominated by bond-dependent off-diagonal $\Gamma$ interactions, complemented by a ferromagnetic Heisenberg exchange and a notably \emph{antiferromagnetic} Kitaev term. In addition to bilinear interactions, we find a sizable four-spin ring exchange contribution with a \emph{strongly anisotropic} character, which has been so far overlooked when modeling Kitaev materials. The analysis of the magnetic model, based on the minimization of the classical energy and exact diagonalization of the quantum Hamiltonian, points toward the existence of a rather robust easy-plane ferromagnetic order, which cannot be easily destabilized by physically relevant perturbations.

For two climate datasets, model runs up to 2021 or 2022 are available. For comparison, output of a version of WaterGAP v2.2d that is calibrated to the same dataset of observed streamflow as WaterGAP v2.2e is provided. Each of the climate forcing-model version combinations is run in two socio-economic settings, histsoc and nosoc. In nosoc, human water use is set to zero and man-made reservoirs are assumed to be non-existant. In the paper connected to this dataset (to be submitted to Geoscientific Model Development), the newest model version, WaterGAP v2.2e is described by providing the modifications to the previous version v2.2d (Müller Schmied et al. 2021) and the corresponding changes in model output. The most important and requested model outputs (total water storage variations, streamflow and water use) are evaluated against observation data. Standard model output is described as well as the specifics of the WaterGAP contribution within the ISIMIP framework.

    Section-Type Constraints on the Choice of Linguistic Mechanisms in Research Articles: A Corpus-Based Approach
    This thesis investigates the structure of research articles in the field of Computational Linguistics with the goal of establishing that a set of distinctive linguistic features is associated with each section type. The empirical results of the study are derived from the quantitative and qualitative evaluation of research articles from the ACL Anthology Corpus. More than 20,000 articles were analyzed for the purpose of retrieving the target section types and extracting the predefined set of linguistic features from them. Approximately 1,100 articles were found to contain all of the following five section types: abstract, introduction, related work, discussion, and conclusion. These were chosen for the purpose of comparing the frequency of occurrence of the linguistic features across the section types. Making use of frameworks for Natural Language Processing, the Stanford CoreNLP Module, and the Python library SpaCy, as well as scripts created by the author, the frequency scores of the features were retrieved and analyzed with state-of-the-art statistical techniques. The results show that each section type possesses an individual profile of linguistic features which are associated with it more or less strongly. These section-feature associations are shown to be derivable from the hypothesized purpose of each section type. Overall, the findings reported in this thesis provide insights into the writing strategies that authors employ so that the overall goal of the research paper is achieved. The results of the thesis can find implementation in new state-of-the-art applications that assist academic writing and its evaluation in a way that provides the user with a more sophisticated, empirically based feedback on the relationship between linguistic mechanisms and text type. In addition, the potential of the identification of text-type specific linguistic characteristics (a text-feature mapping) can contribute to the development of more robust language-based models for disinformation detection.

    Epitaxial EuPd2Si2 thin films
    Bulk EuPd2Si2 show a temperature-driven valence transisition of europium from ~+2 above 200 K to~+3 below 100 K, which is correlated with a shrinking by approximatly 2 % of the crystal lattice along the two a-axes. Due to this interconnection between lattice and electronic degrees of freedom the influence of strain in epitaxial thin films is particularly interesting. Ambient X-ray diffraction (XRD) confirms an epitaxial relationship of tetragonal EuPd2Si2 on MgO(001) with an out-of plane c-axis orientation for the thin film, whereby the a-axes of both lattices align. XRD at low temperatures reveals a strong coupling of the thin film lattice to the substrate, showing no abrupt compression over the temperature range from 300 to 10 K. Hard X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy at 300 and 20 K reveals a temperature-independent valence of +2.0 for Eu. The evolving biaxial tensile strain upon cooling is suggested to suppress the valence transition. Instead low temperature transport measurements of the resistivity and the Hall effect in a magnetic field up to 5 T point to a film thickness independent phase transition at 16-20 K, indicating magnetic ordering.
