Yayın Future projections of temperature and precipitation climatology for CORDEX-MENA domain using RegCM4.4(Elsevier Science Inc, 2018-07-01) Öztürk, Tuğba; Turp, Mustafa Tufan; Türkeş, Murat; Kurnaz, Mehmet LeventIn this study, we investigate changes in seasonal temperature and precipitation climatology of CORDEX Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region for three periods of 2010-2040, 2040-2070 and 2070-2100 with respect to the control period of 1970-2000 by using regional climate model simulations. Projections of future climate conditions are modeled by forcing Regional Climate Model, RegCM4.4 of the International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP) with two different CMIP5 global climate models. HadGEM2-ES global climate model of the Met Office Hadley Centre and MPI-ESM-MR global climate model of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology were used to generate 50 km resolution data for the Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) Region 13. We test the seasonal time-scale performance of RegCM4.4 in simulating the observed climatology over domain of the MENA by using the output of two different global climate models. The projection results show relatively high increase of average temperatures from 3 degrees C up to 9 degrees C over the domain for far future (2070-2100). A strong decrease in precipitation is projected in almost all parts of the domain according to the output of the regional model forced by scenario outputs of two global models. Therefore, warmer and drier than present climate conditions are projected to occur more intensely over the CORDEX-MENA domain.Yayın The emergence of projected scaled patterns of extreme temperatures over Europe(Frontiers Media SA, 2023-06-28) Öztürk, Tuğba; Canbaz, Emine; Bilgin, Başak; Matte, Dominic; Kurnaz, Mehmet Levent; Christensen, Jens HesselbjergThis work investigates the scalability of extreme temperatures over the European domain with global warming levels. We have used the EURO-CORDEX ensemble of regional model simulations at 0.11° resolution for daily minimum and maximum temperatures to analyze future changes in extreme weather daily events. Scaling with the annual mean global warming modeled by the driving GCM was applied to future extreme temperature indices changes. Regional changes in each index were scaled by corresponding global warming levels obtained from GCMs. This approach asserts that regional patterns of climate change and average global temperature change are linearly related. It can provide information regarding climate change for periods or emission scenarios when no simulations exist. According to the results, the annual minimum of the lowest temperature of the day (TNn) increases more than the annual maximum of the highest temperature of the day (TXx) for Europe. The multi-model mean of the changes in scaled patterns of extreme temperatures emerges early, around 2020, even before it becomes robust. Individual scaled patterns of TNn and TXx emerge from around 2040.Yayın The Worldwide C3S CORDEX Grand Ensemble A Major Contribution to Assess Regional Climate Change in the IPCC AR6 Atlas(American Meteorological Society, 2022-12) Diez-Sierra, Javier; Iturbide, Maialen; Gutierrez, Jose M.; Fernandez, Jesus; Milovac, Josipa; Cofino, Antonio S.; Cimadevilla, Ezequiel; Nikulin, Grigory; Levavasseur, Guillaume; Kjellstrom, Erik; Bulow, Katharina; Horanyi, Andras; Brookshaw, Anca; Garcia-Diez, Markel; Perez, Antonio; Bano-Medina, Jorge; Ahrens, Bodo; Alias, Antoinette; Ashfaq, Moetasim; Bukovsky, Melissa; Buonomo, Erasmo; Caluwaerts, Steven; Chou, Sin Chan; Christensen, Ole B.; Ciarlo, James M.; Coppola, Erika; Corre, Lola; Demory, Marie-Estelle; Djurdjevic, Vladimir; Evans, Jason P.; Fealy, Rowan; Feldmann, Hendrik; Jacob, Daniela; Jayanarayanan, Sanjay; Katzfey, Jack; Keuler, Klaus; Kittel, Christoph; Kurnaz, Mehmet Levent; Laprise, Rene; Lionello, Piero; McGinnis, Seth; Mercogliano, Paola; Nabat, Pierre; Öztürk, Tuğba; Panitz, Hans-Jurgen; Paquin, Dominique; Pieczka, Ildiko; Raffaele, Francesca; Remedio, Armelle Reca; Scinocca, John; Sevault, Florence; Somot, Samuel; Steger, Christian; Tangang, Fredolin; Teichmann, Claas; Termonia, Piet; Thatcher, Marcus; Torma, Csaba; van Meijgaard, Erik; Vautard, Robert; Warrach-Sagi, Kirsten; Winger, Katja; Zittis, George; Önol, BarışThe collaboration between the Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX) and the Earth System Grid Federation (ESGF) provides open access to an unprecedented ensemble of regional climate model (RCM) simulations, across the 14 CORDEX continental-scale domains, with global coverage. These simulations have been used as a new line of evidence to assess regional climate projections in the latest contribution of the Working Group I (WGI) to the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6), particularly in the regional chapters and the Atlas. Here, we present the work done in the framework of the Copernicus Climate Change Service (C3S) to assemble a consistent worldwide CORDEX grand ensemble, aligned with the deadlines and activities of IPCC AR6. This work addressed the uneven and heterogeneous availability of CORDEX ESGF data by supporting publication in CORDEX domains with few archived simulations and performing quality control. It also addressed the lack of comprehensive documentation by compiling information from all contributing regional models, allowing for an informed use of data. In addition to presenting the worldwide CORDEX dataset, we assess here its consistency for precipitation and temperature by comparing climate change signals in regions with overlapping CORDEX domains, obtaining overall coincident regional climate change signals. The C3S CORDEX dataset has been used for the assessment of regional climate change in the IPCC AR6 (and for the interactive Atlas) and is available through the Copernicus Climate Data Store (CDS).Yayın Robustness of future atmospheric circulation changes over the EURO-CORDEX domain(Springer Science and Business Media Deutschland GmbH, 2022-09) Öztürk, Tuğba; Matte, Dominic; Christensen, Jens HesselbjergEuropean climate is associated with variability and changes in the mid-latitude atmospheric circulation. In this study, we aim to investigate potential future change in circulation over Europe by using the EURO-CORDEX regional climate projections at 0.11° grid mesh. In particular, we analyze future change in 500-hPa geopotential height (Gph), 500-hPa wind speed and mean sea level pressure (MSLP) addressing different warming levels of 1 °C, 2 °C and 3 °C, respectively. Simple scaling with the global mean temperature change is applied to the regional climate projections for monthly mean 500-hPa Gph and 500-hPa wind speed. Results from the ensemble mean of individual models show a robust increase in 500-hPa Gph and MSLP in winter over Mediterranean and Central Europe, indicating an intensification of anticyclonic circulation. This circulation change emerges robustly in most simulations within the coming decade. There are also enhanced westerlies which transport warm and moist air to the Mediterranean and Central Europe in winter and spring. It is also clear that, models showing different responses to circulation depend very much on the global climate model ensemble member in which they are nested. For all seasons, particularly autumn, the ensemble mean is much more correlated with the end of the century than most of the individual models. In general, the emergence of a scaled pattern appears rather quickly.Yayın Business-as-usual will lead to super and ultra-extreme heatwaves in the Middle East and North Africa(Nature Research, 2021-03-21) Zittis, George; Hadjinicolaou, Panos; Almazroui, Mansour; Bucchignani, Edoardo; Driouech, Fatima; El Rhaz, Khalid; Kurnaz, Levent; Nikulin, Grigory; Ntoumos, Athanasios; Öztürk, Tuğba; Proestos, Yiannis; Stenchikov, Georgiy; Zaaboul, Rashyd; Lelieveld, JosGlobal climate projections suggest a significant intensification of summer heat extremes in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA). To assess regional impacts, and underpin mitigation and adaptation measures, robust information is required from climate downscaling studies, which has been lacking for the region. Here, we project future hot spells by using the Heat Wave Magnitude Index and a comprehensive ensemble of regional climate projections for MENA. Our results, for a business-as-usual pathway, indicate that in the second half of this century unprecedented super- and ultra-extreme heatwave conditions will emerge. These events involve excessively high temperatures (up to 56 degrees C and higher) and will be of extended duration (several weeks), being potentially life-threatening for humans. By the end of the century, about half of the MENA population (approximately 600 million) could be exposed to annually recurring super- and ultra-extreme heatwaves. It is expected that the vast majority of the exposed population (>90%) will live in urban centers, who would need to cope with these societally disruptive weather conditions.Yayın Investigating effects of milling conditions on cutting temperatures through analytical and experimental methods(Elsevier Science SA, 2018-12) Karagüzel, Umut; Budak, ErhanCutting temperatures in milling operations have a significant impact on tool wear, size and shape tolerances and residual stresses of the machined part. Prediction and measurement of cutting temperatures in milling, on the other hand, have some challenges due to the rotary tools resulting in an intermittent process and transient thermal loadings. In this study, novel approaches are presented to model and measure the cutting tool temperature variations during milling. The model is used to predict effects of milling conditions on cutting temperatures particularly to determine a relationship between tool temperature and radial depth of cut. The model predictions are verified by measurements obtained from the developed measurement technique and the literature data.Yayın A multi-frequency iterative method for reconstruction of rough surfaces separating two penetrable media(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers Inc., 2024-12-18) Sefer, Ahmet; Yapar, Ali; Bağcı, HakanA numerical scheme that uses multi-frequency Newton iterations to reconstruct a rough surface profile between two dielectric media is proposed. At each frequency sample, the scheme employs Newton iterations to solve the nonlinear inverse scattering problem. At every iteration, the Newton step is computed by solving a linear system that involves the Frechet derivative of the integral operator, which represents the scattered fields, and the difference between these fields and the measurements. This linear system is regularized using the Tikhonov method. The multi-frequency data is accounted for in a recursive manner. More specifically, the profile reconstructed at a given frequency is used as an initial guess for the iterations at the next frequency. The effectiveness of the proposed method is validated through numerical examples, which demonstrate its ability to accurately reconstruct surface profiles even in the presence of measurement noise. The results also show the superiority of the multi-frequency approach over single-frequency reconstructions, particularly in terms of handling surfaces with sharp variations.
