Understand

We construct models in which the SM Higgs mass scans in a landscape.

This is achieved by coupling the SM to a monodromy axion field through Minkowski 3-forms.
The Higgs mass scans with steps given by delta(m_H^2)= eta mu f, where mu and f are the axion mass and periodicity respectively, and eta measures the coupling of the Higgs to the associated 3-form.
The observed Higgs mass scale could then be selected on anthropic grounds.
