‘Trapped sea-water’ in Rørholtfjorden     

Arne Lande 《Aquatic Sciences - Research Across Boundaries》1972,34(1):34-40

Summary Trapped sea-water in R?rholtfjorden, Telemark, Norway, was discovered in 1951 by?smund Ystad who was a student at the Department of Limnology, University of Oslo. The lake was investigated continuously from August 1951 to July 1952, and the results are found inYstad [12] andStr?m [8, 9, 10, 11]. On 25 February 1971 some water samples were taken from R?rholtfjorden to supply the information from the lake, and if possible record changes in the water for the last 20 years. The tables contain chemical data, pH, temperature and oxygen content. The trapped sea-water is also compared with original sea-water with the same chloride content. It is difficult to say anything about changes in the salt-water because of uncertainty regarding the depth measurements. But a so-called semi-stagnation (Str?m [8]) was not observed (Fig. 3). It is possible that about one meter of the trapped sea-water has been lost during the last 20 years because of the removed semi-stagnation.

Zusammenfassung Im R?rholtfjord, Telemark, Norwegen, wurde 1951 von?smund Ystad, Universit?t Oslo, ?gefangenes? Meerwasser entdeckt, welches dann von August 1951 bis Juli 1952 kontinuierlich untersucht wurde. Die Resultate sind beiYstad [12] undStr?m [8, 9, 10, 11] publiziert. Im February 1971 wurden erneut Proben aus dem Fjord genommen, um eventuelle Ver?nderungen w?hrend der vergangenen 20 Jahre festzustellen. Es wurden chemische Daten sowie pH, Temperatur und O₂-Gehalt aufgenommen. Das ?gefangene? Wasser wurde auch mit Originalmeerwasser derselben Salinit?t verglichen. Wegen der Ungenauigkeit der Tiefenmessungen ist es schwierig, etwas über Ver?nderungen auszusagen. Indessen wurde eine sog. Semi-Stagnation, wie sieStr?m [8] beschreibt, nicht beobachtet (Fig. 3). M?glicherweise ging etwa 1 m des ?gefangenen? Wassers zufolge des Verschwindens jener Semi-Stagnation verloren.

Résumé De l’eau de mer ?captivée? dans le R?rholtfjord, Telemark, Norvège, fut découverte en 1951 par?smund Ystad, étudiant en Limnologie à l’Université d’Oslo. Des expériences avec l’eau de ce lac ont été poursuivies continuellement d’ao?t 1951 à juillet 1952 et les résultats ont été publiés parYstad [12] etStr?m [8, 9, 10, 11]. Le 25 février 1971, de nouveaux échantillons d’eau ont été prélevés dans le fjord pour étudier si, dans les 20 dernières années, d’éventuels changements étaient survenus. Les tableaux présentés contiennent les données chimiques, ainsi que le pH, la température et le taux d’oxygène. En plus, l’eau ?captivée? est comparée avec l’eau de mer originale, au même taux de salinité. Il est difficile de s’exprimer sur les changements survenus dans l’eau, à cause de l’incertitude concernant les mesures de profondeur. Cependant, on n’a pas observé une dite semi-stagnation comme l’a décriteStróm [8] (fig. 3). Il est possible qu’environ un mètre de cette eau ?captivée? se soit perdue, durant les 20 dernières années, par la disparition de la semi-stagnation.

Uncertainties in projected impacts of climate change on European agriculture and terrestrial ecosystems based on scenarios from regional climate models     

J. E. Olesen  T. R. Carter  C. H. Díaz-Ambrona  S. Fronzek  T. Heidmann  T. Hickler  T. Holt  M. I. Minguez  P. Morales  J. P. Palutikof  M. Quemada  M. Ruiz-Ramos  G. H. Rubæk  F. Sau  B. Smith  M. T. Sykes 《Climatic change》2007,81(1):123-143

The uncertainties and sources of variation in projected impacts of climate change on agriculture and terrestrial ecosystems depend not only on the emission scenarios and climate models used for projecting future climates, but also on the impact models used, and the local soil and climatic conditions of the managed or unmanaged ecosystems under study. We addressed these uncertainties by applying different impact models at site, regional and continental scales, and by separating the variation in simulated relative changes in ecosystem performance into the different sources of uncertainty and variation using analyses of variance. The crop and ecosystem models used output from a range of global and regional climate models (GCMs and RCMs) projecting climate change over Europe between 1961–1990 and 2071–2100 under the IPCC SRES scenarios. The projected impacts on productivity of crops and ecosystems included the direct effects of increased CO₂ concentration on photosynthesis. The variation in simulated results attributed to differences between the climate models were, in all cases, smaller than the variation attributed to either emission scenarios or local conditions. The methods used for applying the climate model outputs played a larger role than the choice of the GCM or RCM. The thermal suitability for grain maize cultivation in Europe was estimated to expand by 30–50% across all SRES emissions scenarios. Strong increases in net primary productivity (NPP) (35–54%) were projected in northern European ecosystems as a result of a longer growing season and higher CO₂ concentrations. Changing water balance dominated the projected responses of southern European ecosystems, with NPP declining or increasing only slightly relative to present-day conditions. Both site and continental scale models showed large increases in yield of rain-fed winter wheat for northern Europe, with smaller increases or even decreases in southern Europe. Site-based, regional and continental scale models showed large spatial variations in the response of nitrate leaching from winter wheat cultivation to projected climate change due to strong interactions with soils and climate. The variation in simulated impacts was smaller between scenarios based on RCMs nested within the same GCM than between scenarios based on different GCMs or between emission scenarios.  相似文献   

Turning climate change information into economic and health impacts     

Kirsten Halsnæs  Jesper Kühl  Jørgen E. Olesen 《Climatic change》2007,81(1):145-162

The PRUDENCE project has generated a set of spatially and temporally high-resolution climate data, which provides new opportunities for assessing the impacts of climate variability and change on economic and human systems in Europe. In this context, we initiated the development of new approaches for linking climate change information and economic studies. We have considered a number of case studies that illustrate how linkages can be established between geographically detailed climate data and economic information. The case studies included wheat production in agriculture, where regional climate data has been linked to farm enterprise data in an integrated model of physical conditions, production inputs and outputs, and farm management practices. Similarly, temperature data were used to assess consequences of extreme heat and excess mortality in urban areas. We give an introduction of an analytical approach for assessing economic impacts of climate change and discuss how economic concepts and valuation paradigms can be applied to climate change impact evaluation. A number of methodological difficulties encountered in economic assessments of climate change impacts are described and a number of issues related to social and private aspects of costs are highlighted. It is argued that, in particular, detailed climate information matters in relation to understanding how private agents react to observed climate data.  相似文献   

Long-term effects of anthropogenic CO<Subscript>2</Subscript> emissions simulated with a complex earth system model     

Uwe Mikolajewicz  Matthias Gröger  Ernst Maier-Reimer  Guy Schurgers  Miren Vizcaíno  Arne M. E. Winguth 《Climate Dynamics》2007,28(6):599-633

A new complex earth system model consisting of an atmospheric general circulation model, an ocean general circulation model, a three-dimensional ice sheet model, a marine biogeochemistry model, and a dynamic vegetation model was used to study the long-term response to anthropogenic carbon emissions. The prescribed emissions follow estimates of past emissions for the period 1751–2000 and standard IPCC emission scenarios up to the year 2100. After 2100, an exponential decrease of the emissions was assumed. For each of the scenarios, a small ensemble of simulations was carried out. The North Atlantic overturning collapsed in the high emission scenario (A2) simulations. In the low emission scenario (B1), only a temporary weakening of the deep water formation in the North Atlantic is predicted. The moderate emission scenario (A1B) brings the system close to its bifurcation point, with three out of five runs leading to a collapsed North Atlantic overturning circulation. The atmospheric moisture transport predominantly contributes to the collapse of the deep water formation. In the simulations with collapsed deep water formation in the North Atlantic a substantial cooling over parts of the North Atlantic is simulated. Anthropogenic climate change substantially reduces the ability of land and ocean to sequester anthropogenic carbon. The simulated effect of a collapse of the deep water formation in the North Atlantic on the atmospheric CO₂ concentration turned out to be relatively small. The volume of the Greenland ice sheet is reduced, but its contribution to global mean sea level is almost counterbalanced by the growth of the Antarctic ice sheet due to enhanced snowfall. The modifications of the high latitude freshwater input due to the simulated changes in mass balance of the ice sheet are one order of magnitude smaller than the changes due to atmospheric moisture transport. After the year 3000, the global mean surface temperature is predicted to be almost constant due to the compensating effects of decreasing atmospheric CO₂ concentrations due to oceanic uptake and delayed response to increasing atmospheric CO₂ concentrations before.  相似文献   

Airborne gravimetry used in precise geoid computations by ring integration   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

Two detailed geoids have been computed in the region of North Jutland. The first computation used marine data in the offshore areas. For the second computation the marine data set was replaced by the sparser airborne gravity data resulting from the AGMASCO campaign of September 1996. The results of comparisons of the geoid heights at on-shore geometric control showed that the geoid heights computed from the airborne gravity data matched in precision those computed using the marine data, supporting the view that airborne techniques have enormous potential for mapping those unsurveyed areas between the land-based data and the off-shore marine or altimetrically derived data.

A flexible gravity corer based on a plastic funnel closing principle     

Inggard Arne Blakar 《Aquatic Sciences - Research Across Boundaries》1978,40(1):191-198

A highly flexible and efficient gravity corer, easy to construct from inexpensive and readily available material, is described. Barrels of various length can be swiftly interchanged according to requirements in the field. Hollow weights can easily be adjusted to the most appropriate height of the barrel. The simple but reliable closing valve (constructed of two plastic funnels) can be adapted to other types of gravity corers as well. Several useful modifications of the corer are discussed.  相似文献   

Mineral zoning as a record of P,T history of Precambrian eclogites and schists in western Tasmania     

Arne Råheim 《Lithos》1975,8(3):221-236

Ferromagnesian minerals, particularly garnet but also phengite, omphacite and talc, from eclogites and surrounding schists from the Lyell Highway-Collingwood river area, western Tasmania are compositionally zoned.In rocks which have suffered little secondary alteration the Mg-value ($\text{100 Mg}\text{Mg+Fe}{}^{\mathrm{++}}$) of granets increases from core to rim, while the Mg-value of the most important coexisting ferromagnesian phases (clinopyroxene, phengite and talc in different assemblages) decreases from core to rim. CaO decreases from core to rim in garnet. MnO may show little or no variation in garnet, or decrease from core to rim.When compared with experimental data, the zoning of these minerals can be uniquely explained by growth during changing P,T conditions. The eclogites and the surrounding schists have the same prograde P,T history.When determining the K_D-values of garnet and its coexisting ferromagnesian phases it is important to consider secondary rim alterations as well as the prograde zoning of the mineral.  相似文献   

A convenient,one-hand-operated field burette     

Inggard Arne Blakar 《Aquatic Sciences - Research Across Boundaries》1980,42(1):78-83

A simple, cheap and easily constructable burette, particularly useful for alkalinity, dissolved oxygen and hardness titration is described. Precise titrant delivery (<1 μl) is controlled by a handy ‘clothespin valve’ connected to the lower opening of appropriately sized graduated pipettes or burette tubes. The burette is small, flexible and easily portable and should be highly recommended as an all round field burette for limnochemists.  相似文献   

Temperature and pressure dependence of Fe-Mg partitioning between garnet and phengite,with particular reference to eclogites     

Erling J. Krogh  Arne Råheim 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1978,66(1):75-80

Experimental data combined with data from natural rocks have been used to calibrate a geothermometer based on the distribution of Fe²⁺ and Mg between coexisting garnets and phengites. The pressure effect on the K _D -value appears to be considerable. The calculated thermometer is expressed as $$T(K) = \frac{{3685 + 77.1P(kb)}}{{InK_D + 3.52}}.$$ The use of this \(K_{D_{(FeO/MgO)} }^{ga + ph}\) geothermometer on eclogites with low Fe₂O₃ content, gives P-T values which are in good accordance with those obtained by other methods. The problems that arise when Fe³⁺ is present in larger amounts, are discussed.  相似文献   

Schiller effects and exsolution in sodium-rich plagioclases     

Arne Olsen 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1974,47(2):141-152

Plagioclase feldspars with mean compositions Ab_91,3Or_4,7An_4,0 and Ab_88,7An_10,1Or_1,2 have been studied by transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction. The substructure consists of thin lamellae of albite and oligoclase. Two types of orientations of the lamellar planes were observed. The orientation of the more common type was found to change from (08 \(\bar 1\) ) to about ( \(\bar 1\) , 21, \(\bar 2\) ) as a function of the mean potassium content. The plane of the other type was found to be near ( \(\bar 7\) 12). Only the first type of lamellae produces visible Schiller colours.  相似文献
