Directional wave measurement at Haifa,Israel, and sediment transport along the Nile littoral cell     

Zev Carmel  Douglas L. Inman  Abraham Golik 《Coastal Engineering》1985,9(1):21-36

Results of three years of directional wave measurement at the Eastern Mediterranean coast of Haifa, Israel are presented. The wave-height and energy-flux distributions reveal a moderately high-energy coast with a bimodal annual cycle.The rate of wave-induced longshore sediment transport is estimated from the directional energy flux distributions. It describes an annual cycle with a maximum northward transport of 75 ± 14 × 10³ m³/month in midwinter and a southward transport of 26 ± 5 × 10³ m³/month in summer. The net annual transport is northward and computed at 110 ± 100 × 10³ m³/yr.We show that a wave-induced transport is sufficient in explaining the apparent transport of sediments in the Nile Littoral Cell, from the Nile Delta source to the Haifa Bay sink.  相似文献   

Eta carinae nebulosities in 1963     

Carlos Donzelli  J. L. Sérsic  Adela Abraham 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1990,174(2):285-289

The purpose of this note is to give further information regarding the positions of some condensations around Carinae in 1963, an epoch not yet considered in the literature. The new information is unable to confirm the deceleration hypothesis of theeir motion.  相似文献

Intermittent chaos in nonlinear wave–wave interactions in space plasmas     

Rodrigo A. Miranda  Erico L. Rempel  Abraham C.-L. Chian  Felix A. Borotto 《Journal of Atmospheric and Solar》2005,67(17-18):1852

There is increasing observational evidence of nonlinear wave–wave interactions in space and astrophysical plasmas. We first review a number of theoretical models of nonlinear wave–wave interactions which our group has developed in the past years. We next describe a nonlinear three-mode truncated model of Alfvén waves, involving resonant interactions of one linearly unstable mode and two linearly damped modes. We construct a bifurcation diagram for this three-wave model and investigate the phenomenon of intermittent chaos. The theoretical results presented in this paper can improve our understanding of intermittent time series frequently observed in space and astrophysical plasmas.  相似文献

Dielectric constants of BeO,MgO, and CaO using the two-terminal method     

M. A. Subramanian  R. D. Shannon  B. H. T. Chai  M. M. Abraham  M. C. Wintersgill 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1989,16(8):741-746

Using fused SiO₂, CaF₂, and SrF₂ samples with accurately known dielectric constants, we have evaluated the accuracy and precision of two-terminal dielectric constant measurements on small single crystals using empirically determined edge corrections. Values of κ′ at 1 MHz of 3.836±0.05 for silica, 6.814±0.07 for CaF₂ and 6.463±0.09 for SrF₂ indicate an accuracy and precision of 1.0–1.5% for samples having areas of 0.05–1.0 cm². Dielectric constants of BeO, MgO, and CaO measured by this technique are: BeO, κ′_a=6.87 and κ′_c=7.74; MgO, κ′= 9.90; and CaO, κ′=11.95 where κ′_a and κ′_c are the dielectric constants parallel to the a and c axes, respectively. Dielectric loss measurements on CaO in vacuum between 5–400 K at 10–10⁵ Hz indicate significant dispersion at temperatures higher than 300 K, but the effect of the losses on the dielectric constant is less than 1% at 1 MHz and 300 K.  相似文献

Kulkeite,a new metamorphic phyllosilicate mineral: Ordered 1∶1 chlorite/talc mixed-layer     

W. Schreyer  O. Medenbach  K. Abraham  W. Gebert  W. F. Müller 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1982,80(2):103-109

Kulkeite occurs as platy, colorless, porphyroblastic, single crystals up to 2 mm in size in a low-grade dolomite rock associated with a Triassic meta-evaporite series at Derrag, Tell Atlas, Algeria, It is associated with sodian aluminian talc, unusual chlorite polytypes, and both K and Na phlogopite. Kulkeite is optically biaxial, negative, n _x=1.552, n _y=1.5605, n _z=1.5610, 2V_z=24° (obs.). Based on microprobe analysis the empirical formula is (Na_0.38K_0.01Ca_0.01)(Mg_8.02Al_0.99)[Al_1.43Si_6.57O₂₀](OH)₁₀ with some variation in Na, Si, and tetrahedral Al. The crystals are monoclinic with a=5.319(1), b=9.195(2), c=23.897(10) Å, β=97° 1(3)′; Z=2; the calculated density is 2.70 g cm^?3. The four strongest lines in the X-ray powder pattern are (d, I, hkl): 7.90, 100, 003; 1.533, 100, 060; 7.42, 80, 002; 3.38, 80, 007; the 001 reflection with 23.7 Å has intensity 10. Transmission electron microscopy confirms the nature of a regular 1∶1 mixed-layer, which consists of 14 Å chlorite (clinochlore) sheets alternating with sheets of one-layer (9.5 Å) talc characterized by the lattice substitution NaAl→Si just as in the talc occurring as a discrete mineral co-existing with kulkeite. Kulkeite is intergrown with lamellae of clinochlore that represent two-layer and five-layer (70 Å) polytypes with optical birefringence exceeding the normal value for clinochlore by a factor of 3. The origin of kulkeite is due to low-grade metamorphism with temperatures probably not exceeding 400° C. As the clinochlore lamellae and sodian aluminian talc are found in mutual contact, kulkeite seems to represent a metastable mineral at least during the latest phase of metamorphism. However, at an earlier stage, prior to clinochlore formation, kulkeite might have been stable, and the incorporation of Na and Al into its talc component could indeed be the decisive factor for the formation of the mixed-layer.  相似文献
