- The HITRAN database is a compilation of molecular spectroscopic parameters. It was established in the early 1970s and is used by various computer codes to predict and simulate the transmission and emission of light in gaseous media (with an emphasis on terrestrial and planetary atmospheres). The HITRAN compilation is composed of five major components: the line-by-line spectroscopic parameters required for high-resolution radiative-transfer codes, experimental infrared absorption cross-sections (for molecules where it is not yet feasible for representation in a line-by-line form), collision-induced absorption data, aerosol indices of refraction, and general tables (including partition sums) that apply globally to the data. This paper describes the contents of the 2020 quadrennial edition of HITRAN. The HITRAN2020 edition takes advantage of recent experimental and theoretical data that were meticulously validated, in particular, against laboratory and atmospheric spectra. The new edition replaces the previous HITRAN edition of 2016 (including its updates during the intervening years). All five components of HITRAN have undergone major updates. In particular, the extent of the updates in the HITRAN2020 edition range from updating a few lines of specific molecules to complete replacements of the lists, and also the introduction of additional isotopologues and new (to HITRAN) molecules: SO, CH3F, GeH4, CS2, CH3I and NF3. Many new vibrational bands were added, extending the spectral coverage and completeness of the line lists. Also, the accuracy of the parameters for major atmospheric absorbers has been increased substantially, often featuring sub-percent uncertainties. Broadening parameters associated with the ambient pressure of water vapor were introduced to HITRAN for the first time and are now available for several molecules. The HITRAN2020 edition continues to take advantage of the relational structure and efficient interface available at www.hitran.org and the HITRAN Application Programming Interface (HAPI). The functionality of both tools has been extended for the new edition.

Conference paper (peer-reviewed)abstract
- From the very start of ISTC activities NITI has been involved in its projects on the conversion of industrial and engineering potential from military to civil needs and priorities. These projects include studies aimed at efficient severe accident management (SAM) and safety enhancement of commercial nuclear reactors. Detailed information on the projects is published in /1 - 11/.Most of the experimental studies have been carried out in the RASPLAV experimental platform, which:- Comprises 4 experimental facilities integrated into the shared infrastructure of auxiliary and protective systems. The experimental facilities are based on the principle of induction melting in a cold crucible (IMCC) at different heating frequencies;- Enables melting and various manipulations with chemically prototypic corium having mass up to8 kgand temperature up to 3200 С in different atmospheres (inert (Ar, He), oxidizing (steam, air), or their mixtures);- Is certified for work with unirradiated uranium and radiolabeled fission product simulants.In the EU countries results of these ISTC projects are used for reactor application particularly for optimization of NUCLEA - European thermodynamic database, development and implementation of different SAM concepts. Results delivered by the ISTC projects together with data of other projects carried out within national programs have an important reactor application inRussia, i.e.:- Jointly with SPbAEP ex-vessel SAM concept [12] has been developed, which foresees corium retention in the reactor cavity of Tyanvan NPP (China) and Kudankulam NPP (India) equipped by VVER-1000 reactors.- New oxidic sacrificial material [13] has been developed jointly with ISCh RAS and RSC KI. This material is a key component in the above-mentioned melt retention concept.- New crucible-type core catcher for VVER-1000 [14] has been developed and justified in collaboration with SPbAEP, RRC KI, IBRAE RAS, PKF of ROSENERGOATOM, ISCh RAS, SPbGETU, IPPE and SPb GTI (TU).- Concept of in-vessel corium retention has been justified for VVER-640 project based on the application of passive safety systems.The developed concept, ex-vessel catcher and innovative solutions are currently in use in the NPP-2006 projects with VVER-1200, which are under construction inRussia.Long-term and diverse experience in international projects coordinated by the ISTC generated fruitful cooperation on severe accident issues between NITI and European organizations. The following formats of cooperation can be mentioned:- Multi-lateral exchanges with European scientific research centers collaborating within the ISTC projects.- Multi-lateral cooperation coordinated by the OECD and RSC KI with the participants of MASCA program. NITI took part in preparing CORTRAN program proposal.- Bilateral cooperation within the ISTC partnership projects.- Bilateral cooperation with CEA coordinated by Rosatom.- Communication with SARNET, so far unilateral (SARNET members have an access to the ISTC project results through the CEG-SAM website).Short-term perspectives of a broader cooperation are related to the NITI’s initiative to participate in:- ROSATOM-EUROATOM program. In particular, a joint call on containment phenomena is under preparation for transnational use of large scale experimental facilities: MISTRA, CEA – PANDA, PSI – KMS, NITI- SARNET network of excellence, i.e. in the packages related to severe accident research.

The Ice-Free Topography of Svalbard
- 2018

In: Geophysical Research Letters. - 0094-8276 .- 1944-8007. ; 45:21, s. 11760-11769

Journal article (peer-reviewed)abstract
- We present a first version of the Svalbard ice-free topography (SVIFT1.0) using a mass conserving approach for mapping glacier ice thickness. SVIFT1.0 is informed by more than 1 million point measurements, totalling more than 8,700 km of thickness profiles. SVIFT1.0 is publicly available and represents the geometric state around the year 2010. Our estimate for the total ice volume is 6,199 km(3), equivalent to 1.5-cm sea level rise. The thickness map suggests that 13% of the glacierized area is grounded below sea level. A complementary map of error estimates comprises uncertainties in the thickness surveys as well as in other input variables. Aggregated error estimates are used to define a likely ice-volume range of 5,200-7,300 km(3). The ice front thickness of marine-terminating glaciers is a key quantity for ice loss attribution because it controls the potential ice discharge by iceberg calving into the ocean. We find a mean ice front thickness of 135 m for the archipelago (likely range 123-158 m). Plain Language Summary Svalbard is an archipelago in the Arctic, north of Norway, which is comparable in size to the New York metropolitan area. Roughly half of it is covered by glacier ice. Yet to this day, the ice volume stored in the many glaciers on Svalbard is not well known. Many attempts have been made to infer a total volume estimate, but results differ substantially. This surprises because of the long research activity in this area. A large record of more than 1 million thickness measurements exists, making Svalbard an ideal study area for the application of a state-of-the-art mapping approach for glacier ice thickness. The mapping approach computes an ice volume that will raise global sea level by more than half an inch if instantaneously melted. If spread over the metropolitan area, New York would be buried beneath a 100-m ice cover. The asset of this approach is that it provides not only a thickness map for each glacier on the archipelago but also an error map that defines the likely local thickness range. Finally, we provide the first well-informed estimate of the ice front thickness of all marine-terminating glaciers that loose icebergs to the ocean. The archipelago-wide mean ice front cliff is 135 m.
