D1.1. Project Advisory Board composition and communication channels

This deliverable exposes the current status of the Project Advisory Board and possible collaborations with three relevant projects: ENVRIPLUS, BACI and GAIA-CLIM

Concentration dependence of the transition temperature in metallic spin glasses

The dependence of the transition temperature $T_g$ in terms of the concentration of magnetic impurities $c$ in spin glasses is explained on the basis of a screened RKKY interaction. The two observed power laws, $T_g ~ c$ at low $c$ and $T_g ~ c^{2/3}$ for intermediate $c$, are described in a unified approach.Comment: 4 page

D3.3 : Mid term revision of the data management plan

The Data Management Plan (DMP) will be reviewed as requested in http://ec.europa.eu/research/participants/data/ref/h2020/grants_manual/hi/oa_pilot/h2020-hi-oa-data-mgt_en.pdf. The review will be conducted in collaboration with WP1 and WP5. The deliverable will include the outcome of task 3.3. Publisher ConnectinGEOConsortiu

REMOTE SENSING ANALYTICAL GEOSPATIAL OPERATIONS DIRECTLY IN THE WEB BROWSER

Current map viewers that run on modern web browsers are mainly requesting images generated on the fly in the server side and transferred in pictorial format that they can display (PNG or JPEG). In OGC WMS standard this is done for the whole map view while in WMTS is done per tiles. The user cannot fine tune personalized visualization or data analysis in the client side. Remote sensing data is structured in bands that are visualize individually (manually adjusting contrast), create RGB combinations or present spectral indices. When these operations are not available in map browsers professional are forced to download hundreds of gigabytes of remote sensing imagery to take a good look at the data before deciding if it fits for a purpose. A possible solution is to create a web service that is able to perform these operations on the server side (https://www.sentinel-hub.com). This paper proposes that the server should communicate the data values to the client in a format that the client can directly process using two new additions in HTML5: canvas edition and array buffers. In the client side, the user can interact with a JavaScript interface changing symbolizations and doing some analytical operations without having to request any data again to the server. As a bonus, the user is able to perform queries to the data in a more dynamic way, applying spatial filters, creating histograms, generating animations of a time series or performing complex calculations among bands of the different loaded datasets

D4.3 : Feedback system description and results report

Report on the description and results of the publicly sign-on accessible feedback system, based on a catalogue integrating the observation inventory

D7.1. Plan for disseminating and communication of the project's results

The Dissemination and Communication Plan will set out the details of the different types of dissemination activities to be undertaken during the project lifetime. In addition to the dissemination approach that will be applied, this deliverable also provides the necessary guidance for an efficient dissemination strategy. The Plan identifies communicating objectives and goals, the target audience, the message, medium and means and the timeline for communicating actions. D7.1 is a way to reinforce this activity in GEOSS (http://www.geo-tasks.org/geoss_portfolio) by trying to stimulate the ENEON to participate in it

D2.3 : Proposal of EVs for selected themes

Report on the first proposal of EVs for selected themes. It will include description and justification of inclusion. It will collect drafts of SBA-specific EVs for Carbon (CMCC), Health and Pollution (CNR-IIA), Ecosystems (CNRISAC), Biodiversity (CNR- ISSIA), Energy (ARMINES), Disasters (TIWAH) and Oceans (CSIC). It will also include a report on the Co-located Essential Variables Workshop on M7

Cell dynamics simulations of sphere-forming diblock copolymers in thin films on chemically patterned substrates

The morphology of sphere-forming block copolymers assembled in thin films on patterned surfaces is theoretically analyzed. The patterns on the lower surface are alternating bands of a given width distinctively attracting or repelling a given block. We find that long- range order can be achieved, and it depends on the commensurability of the characteristic length of the block domains with both band periodicity and slit thickness. The comparison of the simulation results with experimental data shows a very good agreement. Furthermore, we show that the proper selection of the band periodicity and, consequently, of the film thickness permits the system to switch from hexagonal packing to body-centered orthohedra. Therefore, we show that it exists a way to control the formation of long-range ordered structures of different types in this kind of system

Developing food, water and energy nexus workflows

There is a growing recognition of the interdependencies among the supply systems that rely upon food, water and energy. Billions of people lack safe and sufficient access to these systems, coupled with a rapidly growing global demand and increasing resource constraints. Modeling frameworks are considered one of the few means available to understand the complex interrelationships among the sectors, however development of nexus related frameworks has been limited. We describe three open- source models well known in their respective domains (i.e. TerrSysMP, WOFOST and SWAT) where components of each if combined could help decision-makers address the nexus issue. We propose as a first step the development of simple workflows utilizing essential variables and addressing components of the above-mentioned models which can act as building-blocks to be used ultimately in a comprehensive nexus model framework. The outputs of the workflows and the model framework are designed to address the SDG
