Contribution of {\text{P}}_{{{\text{CO}}_{ 2} {\text{eq}}}} and 13CTDIC Evaluation to the Identification of CO2 Sources in Volcanic Groundwater Systems: Influence of Hydrometeorological Conditions and Lava Flow Morphologies—Application to the Argnat Basin (Chaîne des Puys, Massif Central, France)

Mineralization of groundwater in volcanic aquifers is partly acquired through silicates weathering. This alteration depends on the dissolution of atmospheric, biogenic, or mantellic gaseous CO₂ whose contributions may depend on substratum geology, surface features, and lava flow hydrological functionings. Investigations of $ {\text{P}}_{{{\text{CO}}_{ 2} {\text{eq}}}} $ and δ¹³C_TDIC (total dissolved inorganic carbon) on various spatiotemporal scales in the unsaturated and saturated zones of volcanic flows of the Argnat basin (French Massif Central) have been carried out to identify the carbon sources in the system. Mantellic sources are related to faults promoting CO₂ uplift from the mantle to the saturated zone. The contribution of this source is counterbalanced by infiltration of water through the unsaturated zone, accompanied by dissolution of soil CO₂ or even atmospheric CO₂ during cold periods. Monitoring and modeling of δ¹³C_TDIC in the unsaturated zone shows that both $ {\text{P}}_{{{\text{CO}}_{ 2} {\text{eq}}}} $ and δ¹³C_TDIC are controlled by air temperature which influences soil respiration and soil-atmosphere CO₂ exchanges. The internal geometry of volcanic lava flows controls water patterns from the unsaturated zone to saturated zone and thus may explain δ¹³C heterogeneity in the saturated zone at the basin scale.  相似文献

Impact basin relaxation at Iapetus     

Guillaume Robuchon  Francis Nimmo  Michelle Kirchoff 《Icarus》2011,214(1):82-90

We investigate impact basin relaxation on Iapetus by combining a 3D thermal evolution model (Robuchon, G., Choblet, G., Tobie, G., Cadek, O., Sotin, C., Grasset, O. [2010]. Icarus 207, 959-971) with a spherical axisymmetric viscoelastic relaxation code (Zhong, S., Paulson, A., Wahr, J. [2003]. Geophys. J. Int. 155, 679-695). Due to the progressive cooling of Iapetus, younger basins relax less than older basins. For an ice reference viscosity of 10¹⁴ Pa s, an 800 km diameter basin relaxes by 30% if it formed in the first 50 Myr but by 10% if it formed at 1.2 Gyr. Bigger basins relax more rapidly than smaller ones, because the inferred thickness of the ice shell exceeds the diameter of all but the largest basins considered. Stereo topography shows that all basins 600 km in diameter or smaller are relaxed by 25% or less. Our model can match the relaxation of all the basins considered, within error, by assuming a single basin formation age (4.36 Ga for our nominal viscosity). This result is consistent with crater counts, which show no detectable age variation between the basins examined.  相似文献   

Photoabsorption in Ganymede’s atmosphere

In the framework of future space missions to Ganymede, a pre-study of this satellite is a necessary step to constrain instrument performances according to the mission objectives. This work aims at characterizing the impact of the solar UV flux on Ganymede’s atmosphere and especially at deriving some key physical parameters that are measurable by an orbiter. Another objective is to test several models for reconstructing the solar flux in the Extreme-UV (EUV) in order to give recommendations for future space missions.Using a Beer–Lambert approach, we compute the primary production of excited and ionized states due to photoabsorption, neglecting the secondary production that is due to photoelectron impacts as well as to precipitated suprathermal electrons. Ions sputtered from the surface are also neglected. Computations are performed at the equator and close to the pole, in the same conditions as during the Galileo flyby. From the excitations, we compute the radiative relaxation leading to the atmospheric emissions. We also propose a simple chemical model to retrieve the stationary electron density. There are two main results: (i) the modelled electron density and the one measured by Galileo are in good agreement. The main atmospheric visible emission is the atomic oxygen red line at 630 nm, both in equatorial and in polar conditions, in spite of the different atmospheric compositions. This emission is measurable from space, especially for limb viewing conditions. The OH emission (continuum between 260 and 410 nm) is also probably measurable from space. (ii) The input EUV solar flux may be directly measured or reconstructed from only two passbands solar observing diodes with no degradation of the modelled response of the Ganymede’s atmosphere. With respect to these results, there are two main conclusions: (i) future missions to Ganymede should include the measurement of the red line as well as the measurement of OH emissions in order to constrain the atmospheric model. (ii) None of the common solar proxies satisfactorily describes the level of variability of the solar EUV irradiance. For future atmospheric planetary space missions, it would be more appropriate to derive the EUV flux from a small radiometer rather than from a full-fledged spectrometer.  相似文献   

Further developments of a transient Poisson-cluster model for rainfall     

Guillaume Evin  Anne-Catherine Favre 《Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment (SERRA)》2013,27(4):831-847

Stochastic point processes for rainfall are known to be able to preserve the temporal variability of rainfall on several levels of aggregation (e.g. hourly, daily), especially when the cluster approach is used. One major assumption in most of the applications todate is the stationarity of the rainfall properties in time, which must be reconsidered under a climate change hypothesis. Here, we propose new theoretical developments of a Poisson-based model with cluster, namely the Neyman–Scott Rectangular Pulses Model, which treats storm frequency as a nonstationary function. In this paper, storm frequency is modelled as a linear function of time in order to reproduce an increase (or decrease) of the mean annual precipitation. The basic theory is reconsidered and the moments are derived up to the third order. Then, a calibration method based on the generalized method of moments is proposed and discussed. An application to a rainfall time series from Uccle illustrates how this model can reproduce a trend for the average rainfall. This work opens new avenues for future developments on transient stochastic rainfall models and highlights the major challenges linked to this approach.  相似文献

Stochastic tracking of mesoscale convective systems: evaluation in the West African Sahel     

Alexandros Makris  Clémentine Prieur  Théo Vischel  Guillaume Quantin  Thierry Lebel  Rémy Roca 《Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment (SERRA)》2016,30(2):681-691

In this work we apply a recently proposed Bayesian multiple target tracking model to mesoscale convective systems tracking. This stochastic model follows the multiple hypothesis tracking paradigm and can handle a varying number of targets while detecting the target birth, death, split, and merge events. The model is tested experimentally with real MCS targets detected from meteosat IR data over the Sahelian region. The performance of the stochastic tracking is evaluated by comparing it qualitatively and quantitatively with well established deterministic methods.  相似文献   

High-Oil Soybean for More Efficient Energy Conversion to Soy-Based Biodiesel     

Robert L. Paris  Jeffery D. Ray  James R. Smith  Debbie L. Boykin 《Natural Resources Research》2009,18(4):259-266

Protein and oil are the most important components of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], and they have been shown to have an inverse relationship. As there is a growing demand for soybean oil-based diesel as an alternative fuel source, a better understanding of the protein–oil inverse relationship in conjunction with seed yield could be useful in determining the potential of soybean as a source of biodiesel. We retrospectively examined advanced soybean breeding lines from multiple breeding programs across the southern USA to determine associations between protein and oil and seed yield. The data analyzed were a subset of the Uniform Soybean Tests and consisted of 31 different soybean breeding lines and four checks grown at 10 locations in 2000, six locations in 2001, and eight locations in 2002. A progressive multiple regression analysis was used to develop a single equation describing seed yield over all entries, locations, and years as a function of five traits: oil content, protein content, maturity, lodging, and plant height. From this equation, the optimum plant type for maximum seed yield in the southern USA had either high oil (225 g kg⁻¹) and low protein (385 g kg⁻¹), or high protein (437 g kg⁻¹) and low oil (190 g kg⁻¹). Seed yield continues to be the dominant trait of selection in soybean breeding programs. This study demonstrates that high yield can be achieved with either high protein or high oil. Hence, there is potential for maintaining yield while improving soybean cultivars for oil production. Given the energy balance between fossil-derived and soy-derived diesel, if soy-based biodiesel is to be a significant option, an increased focus on developing high-oil/high-yield soybean needs to occur.  相似文献
