A Study On Atmospheric Boundary-Layer Characteristics At Anand, India Using Lsp Experimental Data Sets     

A. N. V. Satyanarayana  V. N. Lykossov  U. C. Mohanty 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》2000,96(3):393-419

An attempt is made to study the planetary boundary layer (PBL) characteristics during the winter period at Anand (22.4°N, 72.6°E), a semi-arid region, which is located in the western part of India. A one-dimensional turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) closure model is used for the study. The structure of the PBL,which consists of profiles of zonal and meridional components of wind,potential temperature and specific humidity, is simulated. A one-dimensional soil heat and moisture transport parameterization scheme is incorporated for the accurate representation of the energy exchange processes at the soil-atmosphere interface. The diurnal variation of fluxes of sensible heat, latent heat, shortwave radiation, net radiation and soil flux, soil temperature at different depths, Richardson number and TKE at the height of the constant flux layer is studied. The model predictions are compared with the available observations obtained from a special Land Surface Processes (LSP) experiment.  相似文献

Extension of the Kepler problem towards minimization of energy and gravity softening     

V. B. Magalinsky  Tapan K. Chatterjee 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1996,65(4):399-405

The classical Kepler Problem consists in the determination of the relative orbital motion of a secondary body (planet) with respect to the primary body (Sun), for a given time. However, any natural system tends to have minimum energy and is subjected to differential gravitational or tidal forces (called into play mainly due to the finite size and deformability of the secondary body). We formulate the Kepler Problem taking into account the finite size of the secondary body and consider an approximation which tends towards minimum energy orbits, by increasing the dimensionality of the problem. This formulation leads to a conceivable natural explanation of the fact that the planetary orbits are characterized by small eccentricities.  相似文献

Climate control on Venus: Comparison of the carbonate and pyrite models     

George L. Hashimoto  Yutaka Abe 《Planetary and Space Science》2005,53(8):839-848

We review two models describing the Venus climate system: the carbonate and pyrite models. It has been argued carbonate and pyrite are potentially important minerals controlling the climate of Venus, though existence of either minerals has not been confirmed. Although it used to be proposed that carbonation reaction might explain the Venus’ atmospheric CO₂ abundance, it is unlikely Venus’ surface is reactive enough to control the Venus’ massive CO₂ atmosphere. Venus’ surface carbonate is also able to affect the climate through the reaction with atmospheric SO₂ to form anhydrite. Under the carbonate model the climate state is not in equilibrium and would be unstable due to the reaction between carbonate and SO₂. On the other hand, pyrite-magnetite reaction is proposed to explain the Venus’ atmospheric SO₂ abundance. Under pyrite-magnetite reaction, however, the climate would be stabilized such that the existing climate state is maintained over a geological timescale, while some observational facts such as atmospheric abundance of SO₂ and surface temperature could also be reasonably explained.  相似文献   

Does the gas flow through a porous dust aggregate help its growth in a protoplanetary disk?     

Minoru Sekiya  Hidenori Takeda 《Icarus》2005,176(1):220-223

Sekiya and Takeda [2003, Earth Planets Space 55, 263-269] showed that the hydrodynamic gas flow around a dust aggregate larger than the mean free path of gas molecules prevents the growth of the body. In contrast to Wurm et al. [2004, Astrophys. J. 606, 983-987], we argue that this conclusion is not altered even if we take account of the effect of the flow through a porous dust aggregate.  相似文献   

北极扬马延岛大气边界层高度的气候特征分析          下载免费PDF全文

基于1973—2015年间的全球综合无线电探空资料(IGRA),采用总体理查逊数(Bulk Richardson Number)方法,分析了北极扬马延岛43年间的大气边界层高度变化特征,并对其多年月均大气边界层高度变化以及年均大气边界层高度变化进行深入分析探讨。结果显示,扬马延岛白天对流边界层高度高于夜晚稳定边界层高度,夏季多年月均大气边界层高度远低于冬春季节的高度,夏季平均高度仅为262 m,而冬春季节高度在600 m附近。大气边界层高度的变化与地面相对湿度的变化呈现较好的反相关关系。由于受到墨西哥湾暖流的影响,岛屿全年温差较小,夏季的相对湿度较大,导致潜热通量较多,抑制了边界层内的对流过程,造成夏季大气边界层高度较低。此外,其年均高度在1973—1988年间出现波动下降,而后在1988—1995年快速上升,最后于1995—2015年间变化平稳。  相似文献

Effects of eruption history and cooling rate on lava dome growth   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0  

J. H. Fink  N. T. Bridges 《Bulletin of Volcanology》1995,57(4):229-239

To better understand the factors controlling the shapes of lava domes, laboratory simulations, measurements from active and prehistoric flows and dimensional analysis were used to explore how effusion history and cooling rate affect the final geometry of a dome. Fifty experiments were conducted in which a fixed volume of polyethylene glycol wax was injected into a tank of cold sucrose solution, either as one continuous event or as a series of shorter pulses separated by repose periods. When the wax cooling rates exceeded a critical minimum value, the dome aspect ratios (height/diameter) increased steadily with erupted volume over the course of a single experiment and the rate at which height increased with volume depended linearly on the time-averaged effusion rate. Thus the average effusion rate could be estimated from observations of how the dome shape changed with time. Our experimental results and dimensional analyses were compared with several groups of natural lava flows: the recently emplaced Mount St Helens and Soufrière domes, which had been carefully monitored while active; three sets of prehistoric rhyolite domes that varied in eruptive style and shape; and two sets of Holocene domes with similar shapes, but different compositions. Geometric measurements suggest that dome morphology can be directly correlated with effusion rate for domes of similar composition from the same locality, and that shape alone can be related to a dimensionless number comparing effusion rate and cooling rate. Extrapolation to the venusian pancake domes suggests that they formed from relatively viscous lavas extruded either episodically or at average effusion rates low enough to allow solidified surface crust to exert a dominating influence on the final morphology.  相似文献   

Microlensing and polarization     

M. B. Bogdanov  A. M. Cherepashchuk  M. V. Sazhin 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1996,235(2):219-231

The discovery of the microlensing effect has found out the new population — dark bodies having mass of the order of 0.1M which form the halo of our Galaxy. There are two main criteria which identify a light curve as the reveal of the microlensing effect. They are symmetry of the light curve and equal amplification in different colors. We consider polarization of the light beam arising in microlensing effect and find that additional test is possible — polarization of light in the case of a finite star disk. Consequences of polarization are also considered.  相似文献
