Microzooplankton standing crop in the western subtropical pacific off the Bonin Islands in winter, 1980     

Yoshinari Endo  Hiroshi Hasumoto  Akira Taniguchi 《Journal of Oceanography》1983,39(4):185-191

Quantitative data on the vertical distribution and biomass of microzooplankton are presented for the western subtropical Pacific west of the Bonin Islands in winter. Microzooplankton other than foraminifera and radiolarians showed similar vertical distribution to chlorophylla. Among microzooplankters, naked ciliates, tintinnids and copepod nauplii were dominant components both in number and volume. Naked ciliates were the most dominant, comprising 82.2 % and 47.7 % of the total microzooplankton by number and volume, respectively. Copepod nauplii, occupying less than 10 % by number, accounted for 35.7 % of the volume of all microzooplankton. Tintinnids contributed less to the microzooplankton standing crop, 12.6 % of the total by number and 17.3 % by volume. Calculated microzooplankton wet weight varied from 0.84 to 1.80 g m^?2 and corresponded to 9.9–18.1 % of net zooplankton weight. The relative abundance of microzooplankton to net zooplankton in this study is comparable to that previously reported in the tropical and subtropical Pacific Ocean, but a little higher than in oceanic subarctic areas.  相似文献

Low-Luminosity Extra-Galactic H2O Masers     

Yoshiaki Hagiwara 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2005,295(1-2):125-130

Recent high-resolution observations of low-luminosity extra-galactic H₂O masers towards M 82, M 51, and NGC 4051 are presented in this contribution. These observations were conducted using the very large array (VLA). The general observational properties of these masers are discussed.  相似文献

Seasonal variation in abundance and species composition of a planktonic diatom assemblage including viable cells on the bottom in matsushima bay,northeastern japan     

ICHINOMIYA Mutsuo  TANIGUCHI Akira 《中国海洋大学学报(英文版)》2003,2(2):160-166

Seasonal variation in abundance and species composition of a planktonic diatom assemblage distributed in the water column and also settled on the bottom was investigated for the shallow coastal water in Matsushima Bay on the Pacific coast of northeastern Japan during the period from October 1999 to September 2000. A spring bloom of diatoms began in April when nutrient concentrations started to increase, indicating the importance of nutrients. Viable cells of Skeletonema costatum and Thalassiosira spp., which were the dominant species in the water column throughout the year, were also always abundant in the bottom sediment. Both populations in the water column and on the bottom fluctuated essentially in parallel. For the planktonic diatoms in shallow coastal waters to maintain their vegetative populations in the water column, it would be advantageous for them to have a seeding population of viable cells on the bottom that are easily resuspended into the upper photic layer.  相似文献   

Viscosity measurements of hydrous rhyolitic melts using the fiber elongation method     

Akio Goto  Hiromitsu Taniguchi  Arashi Kitakaze 《Bulletin of Volcanology》2005,67(6):590-596

We have devised a new, simple and easy technique to measure the viscosity of hydrous silicate melts by combining an autoclave for melt hydration and the fiber elongation method for viscosity measurement. Using this, we measured the viscosity of hydrous rhyolitic melts whose water content ranges from 0.02 to 0.58 wt%. We observed a drastic decrease in viscosity against water content: 0.1 wt% water decreases the viscosity about an order of magnitude. Even when the water content is only 0.02 wt%, the viscosity decreased about half an order of magnitude. These results clearly demonstrate that the effect of water on viscosity should not be ignored even when it occurs as a trace constituent. We compared our experimental data with those derived from a non-Arrhenian viscosity model, which is considered to be applicable to calc-alkaline samples. This model succeeded in expressing the viscosity variation against water content but was unable to accurately predict the measured viscosity of liquids.Editorial responsibility: D. Dingwell  相似文献

Collision of the IZU arc with Honshu and the effects of oblique subduction in the Miura-Boso peninsulas     

Y. Ogawa  K. Horiuchi  H. Taniguchi  J. Naka 《Tectonophysics》1985,119(1-4)

Collision of the Izu arc in Central Japan is discussed with a focus on its tectonic effects to the east of the arc, in the Miura-Boso Peninsulas of Honshu. The tectonics are the combination of the following events: Philippine Sea plate spreading in the Late Oligocene to Early Miocene; opening of the Sea of Japan in the middle Miocene; obduction of ophiolitic rocks in the northeasternmost corner of the Philippine Sea plate, and forearc sedimentation between the Honshu and Izu arcs. Oblique subduction has shifted the plate boundary from northeast to southwest, from the present Mineoka Tectonic Belt through the Miura Fold Belt to the Sagami trough since the Miocene. Remarkable right-lateral transpressional deformation occurred throughout this period of the oblique collision and subduction.  相似文献   

Fine structure of laboratory wind-wave surfaces studied using an optical method     

Naoto Ebuchi  Hiroshi Kawamura  Yoshiaki Toba 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》1987,39(1-2):133-151

The fine structure of laboratory wind-wave surfaces was investigated using an optical method. Several characteristic structures, closely associated with wind speed and the stage of development of the waves, are described. A parallel light, incident on the wind-wave surface, was backscattered by specular facets perpendicular to the incident angle. These specular facets, which represented the fine structures, were photographed and quantitatively analyzed by image processing techniques.For wind speeds ranging from 3.6 to 13.6 m s^–1, different types of small-scale undulations appeared: a three-dimensional rhombic structure; a train of capillary waves on the forward face with wavelengths gradually decreasing with distance from the crest, and a streaky structure on the backward face in the direction of the wind; and random and wide-spreading irregularities covering the whole wind-wave surface. The spatial scales and temporal variation of the undulations are described.  相似文献
