Upwelling and river runoff as sources of dissolved nitrous oxide to the Alsea estuary,Oregon     

Marie A. de Angelis  Louis I. Gordon 《Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science》1985,20(4):375-386

Surface waters of Alsea Bay, an unpolluted estuary on the Oregon coast, were analysed for nitrous oxide, nitrate and nitrite on a weekly or biweekly basis during the summer of 1979. The estuary was found to be a variable source of N₂O to the atmosphere. Large and rapid increases in the concentrations of N₂O, NO₃^?, and NO₂^? occurred at the beginning of the sampling period and are attributed to the influx of nutrient-rich upwelling water into the estuary with the tide. The subsequent decline in concentrations of nitrate, nitrite and nitrous oxide over the remainder of the summer is attributed to a decrease in upwelling intensity, a decline in nitrification rates and to assimilatory nitrate reduction. Measurements of nitrous oxide at six stations along the Alsea River were also made in September and October before and after the onset of the rainy season. Samples taken after flood conditions were established were systematically 50% higher than pre-flood samples. The data suggest that soil runoff results in elevated concentrations of N₂O in rivers.  相似文献   

Coronal mass ejection associated with the stationary post-flare arch of 21–22 May 1980     

Marie K. McCabe  Zdeněk F. Švestka  Russell A. Howard  Bernard V. Jackson  Neil R. Sheeley Jr. 《Solar physics》1986,103(2):399-408

By using a combination of X-ray (HXIS), H (Haleakala), white-light corona (Solwind), and zodiacal light (Helios) images on 21–22 May, 1980 we demonstrate, and try to explain, the co-existence of a coronal mass ejection with a stationary post-flare coronal arch. The mass ejection was seen, both by Solwind and Helios, in prolongation of the path of a powerful spray, whereas the active region filament did not erupt. A tentative comparison is made with other occurrences of stationary, or quasi-stationary post-flare coronal arches.  相似文献   

Hα manifestation of an energetic limb flare,June 21, 1980     

Marie K. McCabe 《Solar physics》1985,98(1):127-140

The H observations of a limb flare, which were associated with exceptional gamma-ray and hard X-ray emission, are presented and discussed. The good spatial and temporal resolution of the H data allow us to investigate the detailed structure of the elevated flare loops and the intensity variations of the loops, footpoints and surrounding chromosphere during each phase of the flare event. A delay time of 12 s was found between at least one of the hard X-ray (28–485 keV) peaks and corresponding H intensity maximum at a loop footpoint. A comparison is made between this event and another well-observed limb flare with many similar characteristics to seek evidence for the large difference in their levels of energy release.  相似文献

Biaxial test simulations using a packing of polygonal particles   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

A. A. Peña  A. Lizcano  F. Alonso‐Marroquin  H. J. Herrmann 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》2008,32(2):143-160

The mechanical response of cohesionless granular materials under monotonic loading is studied by performing molecular dynamic simulations. The diversity of shapes of soil grains is modelled by using randomly generated convex polygons as granular particles. Results of the biaxial test obtained for dense and loose media show that samples achieve the same void ratio at large strains independent of their initial density state. This limit state resembles the so‐called critical state of soil mechanics, except for some stress fluctuations, which remain for large deformations. These fluctuations are studied at the micro‐mechanical level, by following the evolution of the co‐ordination number, force chains and the fraction of the sliding contacts of the sample.

The Ectoparasitic Gastropod Boonea (= Odostomia) impressa: Population Ecology and the Influence of Parasitism on Oyster Growth Rates     

Marie E.  White  Eric N.  Powell Christopher L.  Kitting 《Marine Ecology》1984,5(3):283-299

Abstract. Boonea (= Odostomia) impressa is a common ectoparasite of oysters. In the laboratory, small oysters (Crassostrea virginica) parasitized by natural densities of B. impressa produced 75 % less new shell than unparasitized oysters. Shell deposition rates of previously parasitized oysters increased significantly after all B. impressa were removed. Thus, the decrease in growth rate, although significant, apparently was not permanent. B. impressa preferentially parasitized small, living oysters (≤2.5cm) in the field, even though a higher percentage of large, living oysters (>2.5cm) was available. The snails maintained an aggregated distribution on the oyster reef. The number of B. impressa per oyster clump was positively correlated with the number of living oysters per clump, however some clumps with few or no living oysters had many B. impressa. Thus, food availability only partially explained the pattern of distribution. B. impressa was very mobile. About 50 % of the population moved in one week. Reproduction occurred throughout the year with a peak period in May. Recruitment was greatest in July, however new recruits were observed throughout the year. The reduction in growth rate of parasitized oysters, the snaiľs propensity towards parasitizing small oysters and the snail's tendency to be contagiously distributed suggests that B. impressa potentially exerts a significant influence on the population structure and health of oyster populations.  相似文献

Rate constants for the reactions of the NO3 radical with HCOOH/HCOO− and CH3COOH/CH3COO− in aqueous solution between 278 and 328 K     

M. Exner  H. Herrmann  R. Zellner 《Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry》1994,18(4):359-378

The kinetics of the aqueous phase reactions of NO₃ radicals with HCOOH/HCOO^– and CH₃COOH/CH₃COO^– have been investigated using a laser photolysis/long-path laser absorption technique. NO₃ was produced via excimer laser photolysis of peroxodisulfate anions (S₂O ₈ ^2– ) at 351 nm followed by the reactions of sulfate radicals (SO ₄ ^– ) with excess nitrate. The time-resolved detection of NO₃ was achieved by long-path laser absorption at 632.8 nm. For the reactions of NO₃ with formic acid (1) and formate (2) rate coefficients ofk ₁=(3.3±1.0)×10⁵ l mol^–1 s^–1 andk ₂=(5.0±0.4)×10⁷ l mol^–1 s^–1 were found atT=298 K andI=0.19 mol/l. The following Arrhenius expressions were derived:k ₁(T)=(3.4±0.3)×10¹⁰ exp[–(3400±600)/T] l mol^–1 s^–1 andk ₂(T)=(8.2±0.8)×10¹⁰ exp[–(2200±700)/T] l mol^–1 s^–1. The rate coefficients for the reactions of NO₃ with acetic acid (3) and acetate (4) atT=298 K andI=0.19 mol/l were determined as:k ₃=(1.3±0.3)×10⁴ l mol^–1 s^–1 andk ₄=(2.3±0.4)×10⁶ l mol^–1 s^–1. The temperature dependences for these reactions are described by:k ₃(T)=(4.9±0.5)×10⁹ exp[–(3800±700)/T] l mol^–1 s^–1 andk ₄(T)=(1.0±0.2)×10¹² exp[–(3800±1200)/T] l mol^–1 s^–1. The differences in reactivity of the anions HCOO^– and CH₃COO^– compared to their corresponding acids HCOOH and CH₃COOH are explained by the higher reactivity of NO₃ in charge transfer processes compared to H atom abstraction. From a comparison of NO₃ reactions with various droplets constituents it is concluded that the reaction of NO₃ with HCOO^– may present a dominant loss reaction of NO₃ in atmospheric droplets.  相似文献   

Aluminium species distribution during mixing of acid coal and slate mine drainage with neutral stream waters     

Reimer Herrmann  Isolde Baumgartner 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1992,81(3):759-767

We measured the spatial variation of aluminium concentrations and computed its species distribution before and during mixing of acid mine drainage containing waters with near neutral receiving waters. Acid mine drainage was collected from the Loquitz Creek, Thuringia, Germany, and Garvey Creek, Westland, New Zealand, which drain slate mine workings and coal mine workings, resp. The acidneutralizing capacity (ANC) of the receiving streams and the mixing with waters having low Al-concentrations cause a decrease of aluminium concentrations below the confluence. Depending on volumes and ANCs involved, the content of free Al and sulphate bound Al decreases after mixing in favour of organic and hydroxide bound Al. In addition, below the junction of the Loquitz Creek and the Aue Creek with its high ANC, we observe the precipitation of aluminium hydroxides and Al hydroxysulphates.

Zusammenfassung Wir haben die räumliche Änderung der Aluminiumkonzentrationen vor und nach der Mischung von Flußwasser, versauert durch Bergwerksabwässer, mit nahezu neutralem Wasser der Vorfluter gemessen und haben dazu die Speziesverteilung berechnet. Saure Bergwerksabwässer sickern aus Halden eines Schiefertagebaus in Thüringen in die Loquitz ebenso wie aus Halden eines Kohletagebaus in den Garvey Creek, Westland, Neuseeland. Die Säuren-Neutralisierungskapazität der Vorfluter und die Mischung mit Al-armem Wasser bewirken eine Abnahme der Aluminiumkonzentrationen nach dem Zusammenfluß. In Abhängigkeit von beteiligten Abflüssen und Säuren-Neutralisierungskapazitäten nimmt der Gehalt an freiem Aluminium und sulfatgebundenem Aluminium nach der Mischung zugunsten von organisch- und hydroxy-gebundenem Aluminium ab. Ferner beobachten wir unterhalb des Zusammenflusses von Loquitz und Aue, der eine hohe Säuren-Neutralisierungskapazität eigen ist, eine Ausfällung von Aluminiumhydroxyden und Aluminiumhydroxysulfaten.

Résumé Nous avons mesuré la variation spatiale de la teneur en Al et calculé la distribution de ses différentes formes dans deux cours d'eau différents, qui reçoivent des eaux acides venant de mines situées sur leur cours. Ces mesures ont été faites d'une part sur le cours du Loquitz (Thuringe-Allemagne) qui reçoit des aux acides venant d'une mine d'ardoise et d'autre part sur le cours du Garvey (Westland - Nouvelle Zélande) qui reçoit les eaux d'une mine de charbon. Pour chaque cours d'eau, les mesures ont été faites en amont de la source d'apport, puis en aval, c'est-à-dire après le mélange avec les eaux acides. La capacité de neutralisation des acides (ANC) des eaux des cours d'eau récepteurs et la basse teneur en Al des eaux d'apport provoquent une diminution de la teneur en Al après le mélange. Dans une mesure liée aux volumes en jeu et à l'ANC, la teneur en Al libre et en Al lié au sulfate diminue près le mélange au profit de l'Al lié soit à des substances organiques, soit à des hydroxydes. De plus, en aval du confluent du Loquitz et de l'Aue, rivière à ANC élevé, nous observons la précipitation d'hydroxydes d'Al et d'hydroxisulfates d'Al.
