Efficient Monte Carlo simulation of streamer discharges with deep-learning denoising models by F M Bayo-Muñoz, A Malagón-Romero, A Luque

“…Although Monte Carlo methods are intuitive and they model the full electron energy distribution without a priori prescriptions, they suffer from artificial sampling noise which, combined with the non-linearity of streamers, distorts their evolution. Here we investigate the use of deep-learning techniques to mitigate the noise introduced by Monte Carlo sampling. …”

Climate and population: risk exposure to precipitation concentration in mainland Spain (1950-2010) by Roberto Serrano Notivoli, María Zúñiga-Antón, Ángel Pueyo, Santiago Beguería, Miguel Ángel Saz, Martín de Luis

“…The relative influence of population changes and precipitation concentration evolution is analyzed. Results suggest that hazard (precipitation concentration) changes led most of the observed changes in risk exposure, except in those decades where population movements were massive and widespread. …”
