We developed a data assimilation method that incorporates the microwave imager (MWI) brightness temperatures (TBs) into the cloud-resolving model (CRM) developed by the Japan Meteorological Agency (JMANHM). This method consisted of a displacement error correction scheme and an Ensemble-based variational assimilation scheme. In the displacement error correction scheme, we obtained the optimum di...

Pr0.5Ca0.5CoO3 exhibits a non-conventional metal-insulator transition (MIT) in which the insulating state is due to a volume contraction (~2%) and electron transfer from Pr to Co sites. Pr1-xCaxCoO3 cobaltites with Ca doping around x 0.5 (0.45≤x≤0.55) have been investigated. Different ground states and phase transitions are reported in samples at both sides of the half-doped composition. The re...

Abstract In this work, a confined-doped fiber with the core/inner-cladding diameter of 40/250 μm and relative doping ratio 0.75 is fabricated through modified chemical vapor deposition method combined chelate gas technique, subsequently applied in tandem-pumped amplifier for high-power operation transverse mode instability (TMI) mitigation. Notably, impacts seed laser power purity are prelimina...
