The determination of FeO of geologic materials by modern instrumental methods (such as atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS), inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectroscopy (ICP-AES), X-ray fluorescence (XRF), etc.) cannot distinguish between different oxidation states of elements. In many cases, the oxidation state of Fe has to be known in order to perform several chemical calculations (norms, etc.) and discuss the reactions that occur during weathering, hydrothermal alteration and other processes. A modified Wilson method is proposed, giving reproducible results in a much shorter time than the classical method. Back-titration with potassium dichromate and an Fe(II) and ammonia sulphate solution is used, after dissolution of the sample powder in a heated HF/H3PO4 mixture and an ammonium vanadate solution. This modified method, tested with several international reference materials, gives reliable results, equivalent to the ones cited in the literature for the reference materials. 相似文献

Summary The physical coupling between the occurrence of winter heavy precipitation in Europe and the surface large-scale circulation
is studied by isolating their coupled modes with a singular value decomposition technique. The leading mode is a clear manifestation
of the North Atlantic Oscillation forcing. The second mode reflects the influence of a centre-of-action in the pressure field
westward of the British Isles. The Hadley Centre Coupled Model (3rd generation) is skilful in reproducing these two modes and an eastward extension of the North Atlantic Oscillation towards
the Mediterranean Basin is projected under two future climatic scenarios. This extension yields an increase in the North Atlantic
Oscillation forcing over the occurrence of heavy precipitation in several regions of Southern Europe, which is corroborated
by the changes in the coupling of the daily precipitation. A combination of the first six coupled modes of the daily precipitation
revealed that its amounts in some parts of Western Europe and the Mediterranean are effectively governed by the large-scale
circulation. The model is still reasonably skilful in reproducing this large-scale coupling. The projected modifications,
both in the strength and in the patterns of the coupled modes, explain important fractions of the projected changes in variance,
which ultimately have implications in the occurrence of heavy precipitation in several European areas. Therefore, the ability
of a model in reproducing the large-scale forcing over the daily precipitation is important for the reliability of its projections
of the occurrence of heavy precipitation in Europe. 相似文献

Changes in storm track and cyclone activity in three SRES ensemble experiments with the ECHAM5/MPI-OM1 GCM 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:2

Synoptic activity over the Northern Hemisphere is evaluated in ensembles of ECHAM5/MPI-OM1 simulations for recent climate
conditions (20C) and for three climate scenarios (following SRES A1B, A2, B1). A close agreement is found between the simulations
for present day climate and the respective results from reanalysis. Significant changes in the winter mid-tropospheric storm
tracks are detected in all three scenario simulations. Ensemble mean climate signals are rather similar, with particularly
large activity increases downstream of the Atlantic storm track over Western Europe. The magnitude of this signal is largely
dependent on the imposed change in forcing. However, differences between individual ensemble members may be large. With respect
to the surface cyclones, the scenario runs produce a reduction in cyclonic track density over the mid-latitudes, even in the
areas with increasing mid-tropospheric activity. The largest decrease in track densities occurs at subtropical latitudes,
e.g., over the Mediterranean Basin. An increase of cyclone intensities is detected for limited areas (e.g., near Great Britain
and Aleutian Isles) for the A1B and A2 experiments. The changes in synoptic activity are associated with alterations of the
Northern Hemisphere circulation and background conditions (blocking frequencies, jet stream). The North Atlantic Oscillation
index also shows increased values with enhanced forcing. With respect to the effects of changing synoptic activity, the regional
change in cyclone intensities is accompanied by alterations of the extreme surface winds, with increasing values over Great
Britain, North and Baltic Seas, as well as the areas with vanishing sea ice, and decreases over much of the subtropics. 相似文献

An Evaluation of the Effects of Primary and Cross‐Contamination during the Preparation of Rock Powders for Chemical Determinations 下载免费PDF全文

Quartz crystals from the Batatal site, Minas Gerais, southern Brazil, were used to determine quantitatively primary contamination when submitting the samples to milling processes. Crushing devices used were a primary steel jaw crusher (br1), a secondary tungsten carbide (WC) crusher (br2) and a hydraulic press with stainless steel plates (pr). Fragments with suitable sizes were then ground in different Fritsch planetary mills, equipped with agate, WC and chromium‐steel rings for 7, 4 and 3 min, respectively. Solutions of the powders were analysed initially with the TotalQuant? method in a quadrupole ICP‐MS instrument, providing semi‐quantitative results for seventy‐five elements. Contamination from crushers and mills was visible in major and minor elements such as Fe, Mn and Ti, and noticeable in trace elements such as Cr, Co, Ni, Cu and also V, Zr, Sc; significant contamination was observed from W, Mo, Co, Ta and Nb (mainly by use of the WC devices). Little or no contamination was observed for Pb, REE, Sr and Rb, elements that are important in routine isotopic determinations. Cross‐contamination was tested by grinding either a granite or a basalt sample, followed by conventional cleaning with mica‐free quartz sand, before the working quartz powder was prepared. 相似文献

A new facility designed to perform calibration measurements of airborne imaging spectrometers was established at the German Aerospace Center (DLR) in Oberpfaffenhofen. This Calibration Home Base (CHB) is optimized to characterize radiometrically, spectrally, and geometrically the APEX (Airborne Prism Experiment) imaging spectrometer, which is currently being developed under the authority of the European Space Agency (ESA). It however can be used for other optical sensors as well. Computer control of major laboratory equipment allows automation of time consuming measurements. In APEX configuration (wavelength range: 380 to 2500 nm, instantaneous field of view: 0.48 mrad, field of view: ±14) spectral measurements can be performed to a wavelength uncertainty of ±0.15 nm, geometric measurements at increments of 0.0017 mrad across track and 0.0076 mrad along track, and radiometric measurements to an uncertainty of ±3% relative to national standard. The CHB can be adapted to similar sensors (including those with thermal infrared detectors) by exchanging the monochromator’s lamp, the gratings and the filters, and by adjusting the distance between the sensor and folding mirror. 相似文献

The variable link between PNA and NAO in observations and in multi-century CGCM simulations 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The link between the Pacific/North American pattern (PNA) and the North Atlantic Oscillation (NAO) is investigated in reanalysis data (NCEP, ERA40) and multi-century CGCM runs for present day climate using three versions of the ECHAM model. PNA and NAO patterns and indices are determined via rotated principal component analysis on monthly mean 500?hPa geopotential height fields using the varimax criteria. On average, the multi-century CGCM simulations show a significant anti-correlation between PNA and NAO. Further, multi-decadal periods with significantly enhanced (high anti-correlation, active phase) or weakened (low correlations, inactive phase) coupling are found in all CGCMs. In the simulated active phases, the storm track activity near Newfoundland has a stronger link with the PNA variability than during the inactive phases. On average, the reanalysis datasets show no significant anti-correlation between PNA and NAO indices, but during the sub-period 1973?C1994 a significant anti-correlation is detected, suggesting that the present climate could correspond to an inactive period as detected in the CGCMs. An analysis of possible physical mechanisms suggests that the link between the patterns is established by the baroclinic waves forming the North Atlantic storm track. The geopotential height anomalies associated with negative PNA phases induce an increased advection of warm and moist air from the Gulf of Mexico and cold air from Canada. Both types of advection contribute to increase baroclinicity over eastern North America and also to increase the low level latent heat content of the warm air masses. Thus, growth conditions for eddies at the entrance of the North Atlantic storm track are enhanced. Considering the average temporal development during winter for the CGCM, results show an enhanced Newfoundland storm track maximum in the early winter for negative PNA, followed by a downstream enhancement of the Atlantic storm track in the subsequent months. In active (passive) phases, this seasonal development is enhanced (suppressed). As the storm track over the central and eastern Atlantic is closely related to the NAO variability, this development can be explained by the shift of the NAO index to more positive values. 相似文献

The large ring laser gyroscope at the Geodetic Observatory Wettzell provides unique data of the rotational component of seismic waves. Wind has been identified as a major source of noise at short periods below 5?min. Strong winds increase the level of detected background noise either through surface friction or through wind load on hill slopes. Since our G ring laser demonstrated a routinely achieved sensitivity for rotations of 10?picorad/s when averaged over 30?s, very small effects become detectable. Using a local finite element model and applying a digital terrain model with 25?m spatial resolution, the effect of local wind forces on tilt and horizontal rotations at the ring laser site was calculated. The transfer of forces by wind ram pressure or surface friction is strongly controlled by the resolution of the terrain model or the land use, respectively. The maximum deformation caused by real wind fields reaches a few tenths of nanorads for both tilt and horizontal rotation. While the tilts are too small to affect the ring laser measurements by a change in its inclination, the horizontal rotations can be detected by the ring laser if the signal builds up within a few seconds or tens of seconds. The comparison of the modelled rotation rate time series with measured ring laser data shows a reasonable agreement in amplitude and waveform, however the correction of the ring laser time series is limited by the crude sampling of the wind measurements. 相似文献

The occurrence of extreme cyclones is analysed in terms of their relationship to the NAO phase and the dominating environmental
variables controlling their intensification. These are latent energy (equivalent potential temperature 850 hPa is used as
an indicator), upper-air baroclinicity, horizontal divergence and jet stream strength. Cyclones over the North Atlantic are
identified and tracked using a numerical algorithm, permitting a detailed analysis of their life cycles. Extreme cyclones
are selected as the 10% most severe in terms of intensity. Investigations focus on the main strengthening phase of each cyclone.
The environmental factors are related to the NAO, which affects the location and orientation of the cyclone tracks, thus explaining
why extreme cyclones occur more (less) frequently during strong positive (negative) NAO phases. The enhanced number of extreme
cyclones in positive NAO phases can be explained by the larger area with suitable growth conditions, which is better aligned
with the cyclone tracks and is associated with increased cyclone life time and intensity. Moreover, strong intensification
of cyclones is frequently linked to the occurrence of extreme values of growth factors in the immediate vicinity of the cyclone
centre. Similar results are found for ECHAM5/OM1 for present day conditions, demonstrating that relationships between the
environment factors and cyclones are also valid in the GCM. For future climate conditions (following the SRES A1B scenario),
the results are similar, but a small increase of the frequency of extreme values is detected near the cyclone cores. On the
other hand, total cyclone numbers decrease by 10% over the North Atlantic. An exception is the region near the British Isles,
which features increased track density and intensity of extreme cyclones irrespective of the NAO phase. These changes are
associated with an intensified jet stream close to Europe. Moreover, an enhanced frequency of explosive developments over
the British Isles is found, leading to more frequent windstorms affecting Europe.
