A balloon-borne continuous actinometer has been developed which measures stratospheric N₂O photolysis coefficients, % MathType!MTEF!2!1!+-% feaafiart1ev1aaatCvAUfeBSjuyZL2yd9gzLbvyNv2CaerbuLwBLn% hiov2DGi1BTfMBaeXatLxBI9gBaerbd9wDYLwzYbItLDharqqtubsr% 4rNCHbGeaGqiVu0Je9sqqrpepC0xbbL8F4rqqrFfpeea0xe9Lq-Jc9% vqaqpepm0xbba9pwe9Q8fs0-yqaqpepae9pg0FirpepeKkFr0xfr-x% fr-xb9adbaqaaeGaciGaaiaabeqaamaabaabaaGcbaGaamOAamaaBa% aaleaacaGGobWaaSbaaWqaaiaaikdaaeqaaSGaci4taiabg2da9iab% gkHiTiGacsgaciGGSbGaaiOBaiaacIcaciGGobWaaSbaaWqaaiaaik% daaeqaaSGaci4taiGacMcacaGGVaGaciizaiaadshaaeqaaaaa!44F2!\[j_{N_2 \operatorname{O} = - \operatorname{d} \ln (\operatorname{N} _2 \operatorname{O} )/\operatorname{d} t} \], with a time resolution of approximately 100 s, and a lower detection limit approaching 10^-10 s^-1. The instrument performed successfully, or was at least partially successful, on five stratospheric balloon flights between October 1982 and September 1986.

The quantitative results, particularly the altitude and solar zenith angle dependences under extreme conditions, support the low absorption cross-sections of oxygen in the Herzberg continuum as recommended by WMO in 1986 and are inconsistent with Ackerman's tabulations of 1971. It is shown that the altitude dependence of Brewer and Wilson's historical irradiance measurements in the stratospheric window region is well reproduced by our model, but should be multiplied by a factor of 1.75.  相似文献

Flow characteristics above a very low and gently sloping hill     

Ann-Sofi Smedman  Hans Bergström 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》1984,29(1):21-37

Tower measurements of wind and turbulence in near neutral conditions at the top of a very low and gently sloping hill (height ~ 20 m, with a length scale ~ 1000 m) are analysed in terms of current flow-over-hill theory. Measurements of wind maximum height and the change of the variances of the three wind components from the inner to the outer region are found to be in agreement with predictions from the theory. Spectra of the longitudinal and vertical wind components in the inner region, scaled according to Panofsky et al. (1982), come close to the corresponding Kansas curves in the high frequency range. They have higher energy in the low frequency region, probably a spectral lag effect caused by rougher upwind terrain. In the outer region, the spectra coincide with the corresponding Kansas curves if normalized by their respective variances and plotted against f/f _m.  相似文献   

Prediction of the abiotic degradability of organic compounds in the troposphere     

Hans Güsten  Leo Klasinc  Dubravko Marić 《Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry》1984,2(1):83-93

A statistically relevant correlation between the reaction rate coefficient, k _OH, for the OH radical reaction with 161 organic compounds in the gas phase at 300 K, and the corresponding vertical ionisation energies E _i,v, reveals two classes of compounds: aromatics where –log(k _OH/cm³s^-1)3/2E _i,v(eV)–2 and aliphatics where –log(k _OH/cm³s^-1)4/5E _i,v(eV)+3. The prediction of the rate coefficient, k _OH, for the reaction of OH with organic molecules from the above equations has a probability of about 90%. Assuming a global diurnal mean of the OH radical concentration of 5×10⁵ cm³, the upper limit of the tropospheric half-life of organic compounds and their persistence can be estimated.  相似文献

Development and changes in the Eastern Province of Saudi Arabia     

Barth  Hans Karl  Quiel  Friedrich 《GeoJournal》1986,13(3):251-259

Due to a particularly favourable geologic and tectonic setting in the Eastern Province, Saudi Arabia has the world largest oil reserves and is the third largest oil-producing nation in the world. Based on oil and gas revenues, the Kingdom experienced an overwhelming development during the last few decades, changing a desert country into a modern industrialized nation. Main characteristics of spatial changes are based on processes of urbanization and industrialization, on agricultural reclamations and infra-structural developments. Since the natural environment of deserts and semi-deserts in the Eastern Province is determined by an extremely sensitive equilibrium, environmental impacts, shortages in water resources, as well as limited human resources are causing basic problems, which will influence future developments.  相似文献   

The stream function and Gauss' principle of least constraint: Two useful concepts for structural geology     

Hans Ramberg 《Tectonophysics》1986,131(3-4)

To the extent that rock deformation can be approximated by a two-dimensional Newtonian model, a powerful stream-function simulation method is applicable. The significance of stream functions is that velocity, strain, stress and energy derived from the same stream function satisfy automatically three basic conditions of dynamics:

1. (1) the condition of continuity.

2. (2) the Navier-Stokes equations.

3. (3) conservation of energy.

Hence we state with Jaeger: “If a stream function can be found which satisfies the boundary conditions of a dynamic model the complete solution follows.” All pertinent bits of dynamic information are implied in the stream function from which they can be directly derived, guaranteed—so to speak—not to violate the basic conditions of dynamics. Stream functions useful in structural geology are solutions of: A double-polynomial solution of max. degree 14 is developed, in which the coefficients are related controlled by the ⁴ψ = 0 constraint, and their absolute values are determined by the boundary conditions of specific models and by the condition of maximum rate of energy dissipation or maximum rate of decline of potential energy. The polynomial stream function is applied to a collapsing viscous “nappe” consisting of a thin basal layer with low viscosity on which a thicker layer with high viscosity slides due to gravitational spreading. The velocity of forward movement depends upon absolute and relative values of the following parameters: viscosity, thickness, the aspect ratio and density. The velocity of a variety of nappes with different thicknesses, aspect ratios, viscosities and densities is determined.  相似文献   

Synthetic seismograms from generalized ray tracing1     

Andrzej Hanyga  Hans B. Helle 《Geophysical Prospecting》1995,43(1):51-75

A new method of numerical computation of elastic wavefields in regions containing caustics is tested. The method is an extension of the asymptotic ray theory (ART). The essential features of the method consist of the application of expressions which are well defined at caustics and expressed in terms of ray tracing combined with complex ray tracing in caustic shadows. The method and an outline of the underlying theory are briefly presented, followed by a comparison with finite differences on a test model involving a caustic cusp. The comparison reveals the unexpectedly high degree of accuracy of the new method.  相似文献
