The reactions of three structurally similar unsaturated alcohols, 2-buten-1-ol (crotyl alcohol), 2-methyl-2-propen-1-ol (MPO221) and 3-methyl-2-buten-1-ol (MBO321) with Cl atoms, have been investigated for the first time, using a 400 l Teflon reaction chamber coupled with gas chromatograph-coupled with flame-ionization detection (GC-FID). The experiments were performed at atmospheric pressure and at temperatures between 255 and 298 K, in air or nitrogen as the bath gas. The obtained kinetic data were used to derive the Arrhenius expressions , , (in units of cm³ molecule⁻¹ s⁻¹). Finally, atmospheric lifetimes of those unsaturated alcohols with respect to OH, NO₃, O₃ and Cl have been calculated.  相似文献   

On the Derivation of Input Parameters for Urban Canopy Models from Urban Morphological Datasets   总被引：2，自引：1，他引：1  

Alberto Martilli 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》2009,130(2):301-306

Two techniques are analysed to derive mean street width and mean building width from morphological data of real cities: one based on a two-dimensional simplified morphology, and the other based on a three-dimensional regular simplified morphology. For each simplified morphology (two-dimensional and three-dimensional), the sky-view factors (street-to-sky) are computed and compared with the sky-view factors derived from the real morphology for selected districts of three European and two North American cities. The two-dimensional simplified morphology reproduces the real sky-view factors better than the three-dimensional morphology. Since many urban canopy parameterizations represent the city using simplified morphologies, this can be useful information for the derivation of input parameters for urban canopy parameterizations from real morphological data.  相似文献   

Recovering the real-space correlation function from photometric redshift surveys     

Pablo Arnalte-Mur  Alberto Fernández-Soto  Vicent J. Martínez  Enn Saar  Pekka Heinämäki  Ivan Suhhonenko 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2009,394(3):1631-1639

Measurements of clustering in large-scale imaging surveys that make use of photometric redshifts depend on the uncertainties in the redshift determination. We have used light-cone simulations to show how the deprojection method successfully recovers the real-space correlation function when applied to mock photometric redshift surveys. We study how the errors in the redshift determination affect the quality of the recovered two-point correlation function. Considering the expected errors associated with the planned photometric redshift surveys, we conclude that this method provides information on the clustering of matter useful for the estimation of cosmological parameters that depend on the large-scale distribution of galaxies.  相似文献

Mario Gai  Alberto Vecchiato  Sebastiano Ligori  Alessandro Sozzetti  Mario G. Lattanzi 《Experimental Astronomy》2012,34(2):165-180

The Gravitation Astrometric Measurement Experiment (GAME) is a mission concept based on astronomical techniques (astrometry and coronagraphy) for Fundamental Physics measurements, namely the ?? and ?? parameters of the Parametrized Post-Newtonian formulation of gravitation theories extending the General Relativity. The science case also addresses cosmology, extra-solar planets, Solar System objects and fundamental stellar parameters. The mission concept is described, including the measurement approach and the instrument design.  相似文献   

Intercomparison of the LASCO-C2, SECCHI-COR1, SECCHI-COR2, and Mk4 Coronagraphs

In order to assess the reliability and consistency of white-light coronagraph measurements, we report on quantitative comparisons between polarized brightness [pB] and total brightness [B] images taken by the following white-light coronagraphs: LASCO-C2 on SOHO, SECCHI-COR1 and -COR2 on STEREO, and the ground-based MLSO-Mk4. The data for this comparison were taken on 16?April 2007, when both STEREO spacecraft were within 3.1^° of Earth??s heliographic longitude, affording essentially the same view of the Sun for all of the instruments. Due to the difficulties of estimating stray-light backgrounds in COR1 and COR2, only Mk4 and C2 produce reliable coronal-hole values (but not at overlapping heights), and these cannot be validated without rocket flights or ground-based eclipse measurements. Generally, the agreement between all of the instruments?? pB values is within the uncertainties in bright streamer structures, implying that measurements of bright CMEs also should be trustworthy. Dominant sources of uncertainty and stray light are discussed, as is the design of future coronagraphs from the perspective of the experiences with these instruments.  相似文献   

Determination of Meteoroid Orbits and Spatial Fluxes by Using High-Resolution All-Sky CCD Cameras     

Josep M. Trigo-Rodriguez  José M. Madiedo  Peter S. Gural  Alberto J. Castro-Tirado  Jordi Llorca  Juan Fabregat  Standa Vítek  Pep Pujols 《Earth, Moon, and Planets》2008,102(1-4):231-240

By using high-resolution, low-scan-rate, all-sky CCD cameras, the SPanish Meteor Network (SPMN) is currently monitoring meteor and fireball activity on a year round basis. Here are presented just a sampling of the accurate trajectory, radiant and orbital data obtained for meteors imaged simultaneously from two SPMN stations during the continuous 2006–2007 coverage of meteor and fireball monitoring. Typical astrometric uncertainty is 1–2 arc min, while velocity determination errors are of the order of 0.1–0.5 km/s, which is dependent on the distance of each event to the station and its particular viewing geometry. The cameras have demonstrated excellent performance for detecting meteor outbursts. The recent development of automatic detection software is also providing real-time information on the global meteor activity. Finally, some examples of the all-sky CCD cameras applications for detecting unexpected meteor activity are given.  相似文献   

A depth average SPH model including μ(I) rheology and crushing for rock avalanches     

Alberto Longo  Manuel Pastor  Lorenzo Sanavia  Diego Manzanal  Miguel Martin Stickle  Chuan Lin  Angel Yague  Saeid Moussavi Tayyebi 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》2019,43(5):833-857

Classical depth-integrated smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) models for avalanches are extended in the present work to include a μ(I)− rheological model enriched with a fragmentation law. With this improvement, the basal friction becomes grain distribution dependent. Rock avalanches, where grain distribution tends to change with time while propagating, are the appropriate type of landslide to apply the new numerical proposal. The μ(I)− rheological models considered in the present work are those of Hatano and Gray, combined with two different fragmentation laws, a hyperbolic and a fractal-based law. As an application, Frank avalanche, which took place in Canada in 1903, is analyzed under the scope of the present approach, focusing in the influence of the rheological and fragmentation laws in the evolution of the avalanche.  相似文献   

The Cabo Frio upwelling overrides geographical patterns in the population dynamics of the shrimp Artemesia longinaris Spence Bate, 1888 (Decapoda: Penaeidae)

Upwelling areas are among the most productive ecosystems on the planet, influencing the biology of marine organisms. This study investigated the population dynamics of the shrimp Artemesia longinaris in two regions in southeastern Brazil, one inside (Macaé—Rio de Janeiro State) and one outside (Ubatuba—State of São Paulo) the Cabo Frio upwelling area. The aim was to verify the influence of the upwelling phenomenon on the abundance, growth, longevity, size of sexual maturity, and reproductive period of the species. In total, 188,902 individuals were captured at Macaé and 3,461 at Ubatuba. Individuals captured at Macaé showed larger maximum size, higher longevity, and slower growth rate, besides reaching sexual maturity at larger sizes than at Ubatuba. Continuous reproduction was observed in both regions, with juvenile recruitment peaks in spring and summer. Local conditions observed at Macaé were influenced by the Cabo Frio upwelling zone, characterized by productive and cooler waters that are around 20°C during most of the year. The upwelling phenomenon is probably the main factor influencing the population parameters studied here, changing the geographic patterns previously observed for the variation of these parameters in A. longinaris.  相似文献   

Using low-density discrete Airborne Laser Scanning data to assess the potential carbon dioxide emission in case of a fire event in a Mediterranean pine forest     

Antonio Luis Montealegre-Gracia  María Teresa Lamelas-Gracia  Alberto García-Martín  Juan de la Riva-Fernández  Francisco Escribano-Bernal 《地理信息系统科学与遥感》2017,54(5):721-740

The aim of study is to map the carbon dioxide (CO₂) emission of the aboveground tree biomass (AGB) in case of a fire event. The suitability of low point density, discrete, multiple-return, Airborne Laser Scanning (ALS) data and the influence of several characteristics of these data and the study area on the results obtained have been evaluated. A sample of 45 circular plots representative of Pinus halepensis Miller stands were used to fit and validate the model of AGB. The ALS point clouds were processed to obtain the independent variables and a multivariate linear regression analysis between field data and ALS-derived variables allowed estimation of AGB. Then, the influence of several characteristics on the residuals of the model was analyzed. Finally, conversion factors were applied to obtain the CO₂ values. The AGB model presented a R² value of 0.84 with a relative root-mean-square error of 27.35%. This model included ALS variables related to vegetation height variability and to canopy density. Terrain slope, aspect, canopy cover, scan angle and the number of laser returns did not influence AGB estimations at plot level.  相似文献   

Scilla e Cariddi e le correnti di marea nello Stretto di Messina     

Prof. Dr. Alberto Defant 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1940,2(1):93-112

Riassunto L'A. sottopone ad una dettagliata analisi idrodinamica i fenomeni relativi alle maree ed alle correnti di marea dello Stretto di Messina, appoggiandosi sui dati mareografici dei due mari adiacenti nonchè sulle misure ed osservazioni di F. Vercelli e G. Mazzarelli. I risultati mostrano come il fenomeno delle maree nello Stretto di Messina consista nell'accoppiamento delle maree proprie delle masse d'acque dello Stretto con gli impulsi che le stesse masse ricevono dai due mari Jonio e Tirreno. In tale processo i fenomeni d'attrito (attrito esterno e turbolenza) rivelano un'importanza fondamentale. La sovrapposizione di una corrente generale più forte con la corrente di marea dà luogo nell'imbocco Nord dello Stretto a quelle convergenze di corrente alle quali si connettono i «tagli» e le «scale di mare», nonchè i vortici di Capo Peloro (Cariddi), Scilla e San Raineri. Seguono considerazioni sulla possibilità di alterazioni morfologiche dello Stretto di Messina da epoche preistoriche con abbassamento del fondo o con allargamento delle sponde in guisa da spiegare l'indebolimento dei medesimi fenomeni.

Zusammenfassung Die Gezeiten und Gezeitenströmungen in der Strasse von Messina, an die sich die bekannten Schilderungen der alten Sagen der Scylla und Charybdis knüpfen, werden hier einer eingehenden hydrodynamischen Analyse unterzogen. Die Grundlagen für diese bilden einerseits die bekannten Grundwerte der vertikalen Gezeit in den angrenzenden Meeren im Norden und Süden der Strasse, andererseits die neueren Messungen der Gezeitenströme im engsten Querschnitt der Strasse durch Prof. Vercelli und die Beobachtungen von Prof. G. Mazzarelli. Die Ergebnisse dieser Analyse zeigen, dass das Phänomen der Gezeiten in der Meeresstrasse nichts anderes ist, als die Mitschwingungsgezeiten der Wassermassen der Strasse mit den Impulsen, die sie vom Jonischen und Thyrrhenischen Meer her empfagen. Dabei spielen die Reibungseinflüsse (äussere Reibung und Turbulenz) im engsten Teil der Strasse für die Intensität und Phase der Ströme eine ausschlaggebende Rolle. Die Superposition einer stärkeren allgemeinen Strömung und des Gezeitenstromes gibt am Nordausgang der Meeresstrasse an der Meeresoberfläche zweimal in jeder Mondperiode jene Stromkonvergenzen, an die die bekannten Sprungwellen (tagli o scale di mare) gebunden sind. Mit ihnen in Zusammenhang stehen such die Wirbel vor Cap Peloro (Charybdis), vor Scilla und vor San Raineri. Dieser Zusammenhang wird in der Arbeit näher erörtert, sowie Betrachtungen darüber angestellt, ob nicht möglicherweise morphologische Aenderungen in der Strasse von Messina seit vorhistorischer Zeit durch Vertiefung und vielleicht auch Verbreiterung der Meeresstrasse eine Schwächung der Phänomens bewirkt haben könnten. So könnte man verstehen, dass «Scylla und Charybdis» das sind die von Homer so eindrucksvoll geschilderten Gefahren für die Schiffahrt allmählich verloren gegangen sind.
