ID DEPLETION
AB The 1990 Antarctic ozone hole matched the record 1987 ozone hole in depth, duration, and area. During the formation phase of the hole (August), total ozone values were the lowest yet recorded. The decline rate approximately matched the record 1987 decline, and reached a minimum of 125 Dobson Units on October 4, 1990. October total ozone averages were marginally higher than 1987. As during 1987, the 1990 total ozone values within the hole slowly and steadily increased during the mid-October through November period. The ozone hole breakup was the latest yet recorded (early December), with low ozone values persisting over the pole through December, setting a record low for December average polar ozone. Temperatures were near average during the early spring, but were below normal for the late-spring. Temperatures in the early spring of 1990 were substantially warmer than those observed in the early spring of 1987.

AB By combining ground-based and satellite-based measurements of ionospheric electric fields, conductivities and magnetic perturbations, we are able to examine the characteristics of instantaneous, ionospheric convection patterns associated with changing directions of the Interplanetary Magnetic Field (IMF). In response to a rapid southward-to-northward turning of the IMF on 23 July 1983, the ionospheric convection reconfigured over a period of 40 minutes. The configuration changed from a conventional two-cell pattern to a contracted four-cell pattern, with reversed convection cells in the high-latitude dayside, associated with a strong potential drop of about 75 kV. Later, in response to a gradual rotation of the IMF from the +Z through the -Y toward the -Z direction, the nightside cells disappeared and the dawn cell in the reversed pair wrapped around and displaced the dusk cell until a conventional two-cell pattern was reestablished, largely in accord with the qualitative model of Crooker [1988]. Our results suggest that multiple cells can arise as a result of strong southward to northward transitions in the IMF. They appear to persist for sometime thereafter.

AB Reduction of atomic kinetic motion by laser cooling has important applications to atomic frequency standards and other precision measurements. The optical molasses technique, used for cooling neutral atoms, has produced temperatures below 3-mu-K for cesium atoms, corresponding to an rms velocity of about 13 mm/s. This is considerably lower than the lower limit originally thought to apply to laser cooling and is apparently the lowest kinetic temperature ever measured for three-dimensional cooling. New laser cooling mechanism have been identified to explain the low temperatures.

AB A 303-MHz hyperfine transition in the ground state of Be-9+ was used as a basis of a frequency standard. The ions were stored in a Penning ion trap. Linewidths as narrow as 900-mu-Hz were obtained. The frequency stability was measured to be better than 3 x 10(-12)tau-1/2. The inaccuracy in the second-order Doppler shift was reduced to 5 parts in 10(15) by laser cooling. An apparent pressure shift with an unexpectedly large value was discovered which limits the accuracy of the current experiment to approximately 1 part in 10(13).

Optimum selection of junction parameters makes possible step stability times of 20 min, which are more than adequate for calibrations at 1 V. Designs using both probe and finline microwave couplers were tested. The probe coupler was about 3 dB more efficient and allowed a smaller chip and a less expensive mount. The reduced operating frequency allows substantial advantages in cost and reliability over more conventional devices that operate at 70-100 GHz.

First, a unique way of connecting Zener voltage standards, a digital voltmeter (DVM), and the array to a commercial standard cell scanner has provided necessary switching flexibility. Second, using a programmable millimeter wave attenuator has greatly simplified the selection of voltage steps. Third and last, programmed error checking, which verifies array steps by comparing measurement scatter to previously characterized system noise levels, has proven more reliable than visual observation. The operation of this new system is simplified enough for an inexpert user while the calibration uncertainty (1-sigma) is still a few parts in 10(8).

After the unit of power was transferred to the industrial laboratory, a comparison of the laboratory and NIST calibrations indicated an agreement to within 14 parts per million (ppm). Measurements at NIST to assess long-term stability (one year) indicated differences between two power meters of the type being discussed was not in excess of 11 ppm.

AB One of the NIST Measurement Assurance Programs [1] transfers the unit of the watthour using transport meters. For this application the response of these meters to variations in environmental conditions must be well-characterized. A statistically planned experiment is employed to determine corrections for the response of each meter to varying conditions of voltage, current, temperature, and power factor. This qualification procedure is designed to be efficient with the number of test points and to yield estimates of the model parameters describing the corrections.

This intercomparison is of particular metrological interest as both laboratories have independently developed coaxial primary thermal noise standards using different technologies: a hot standard at PTB and cold standards at NIST.
Different types of comparison radiometers are operating at each laboratory: a total power radiometer at NIST and an RF-switched radiometer with IF-attenuator at PTB. Each laboratory measured two solid state noise sources at 2.0, 4.0, and 8.0 GHz relative to their primary thermal noise standards. The agreement between both laboratories is better than 0.05 dB.

We describe a post-processing time-scale algorithm which is under study at the National Institute of Standards and Technology. We report preliminary results from analysis of both simulated and real clocks. The post-processing algorithm improves the estimate of time and frequency offsets of simulated clocks from the ensemble and, when applied to real clocks, it improves the long-term stability of the time scale over that generated by the single-pass frequency-step detecting algorithm, AT2.

TI POTENTIAL DROP IN THE CENTER-CRACKED PANEL WITH ASYMMETRIC CRACK
EXTENSION
SO INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF FRACTURE
LA English
DT Article
AB The well-known Johnson formula relates the electrical potential drop across a symmetric center crack in a current-carrying tensile panel to the crack length. To allow individual measurement of the crack growth at both ends of such a crack, the potential measured between contact points located on opposite sides and equidistant from the panel center line has been studied. Because this potential must ideally be identically zero for symmetric crack growth, it is termed the asymmetric potential. Its sign and magnitude are related to the direction and extent of asymmetric crack growth.
It was found that contact points directly above the ends of the initial symmetric crack provide a signal which is well-suited to the determination of the asymmetry of the crack extension. This information is complementary to the total crack length information obtained using the Johnson formula. Experimental measurements and theoretical results were used to produce calibration formulae relating the asymmetric potential to the asymmetry of the crack dimensions in center-cracked panels.

TI ESTIMATION OF THE MEAN FIELD BIAS OF RADAR RAINFALL ESTIMATES

DT Article
ID SURFACE RAINFALL
AB In this paper procedures are developed for estimating the mean field bias of radar rainfall estimates. Mean field bias is modeled as a random process that varies not only from storm to storm but also over the course of a storm. State estimates of mean field bias are based on hourly raingage data and hourly accumulations of radar rainfall estimates. The procedures are developed for the precipitation processing systems used with products of the Next Generation Weather Radar (NEXRAD) system. To implement the state estimation procedures, parameters of the bias model must be specified. Likelihood-based procedures are developed for estimating these parameters. A simulation experiment is carried out to assess performance of the parameter estimation procedure. Convergence of parameter estimators is rapid for the cases studied, with data from approximately 25 storms providing parameter estimates of acceptable accuracy. The state estimation procedures are applied to radar and raingage data from the 27 May 1987 storm, which was centered near the NSSL radar in Norman, Oklahoma. The results highlight dependence of the state estimation problem on the parameter estimation problem.

ID HAIL GROWTH; STORM; MODEL; FLOW
AB The relationship between a storm's divergent outflow magnitude at upper levels and maximum hailstone size was investigated by analyzing single-Doppler radar data for 49 severe hailstorms. Two different techniques were developed for use with single-Doppler radar data to estimate the magnitude of divergent outflows. The developed techniques show considerable skill at estimating the maximum hailstone size produced by a thunderstorm, with the correlation coeffients between the parameters used and maximum hailstone size being as high as 0.89. The data also show that estimates of maximum hailstone size have an 80% chance of being accurate to within +/- 1.4 cm. The developed techniques are computationally simple and should be useful for real-time estimation of the maximum hailstone size likely to be produced by a thunderstorm.

TI EVALUATION OF A CLASSIFICATION METHOD FOR RETRIEVING ATMOSPHERIC
TEMPERATURES FROM SATELLITE MEASUREMENTS
SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED METEOROLOGY
LA English
DT Article
AB The retrieval of vertical temperature profiles from radiances measured from a satellite is a difficult inversion problem that has been solved to varying degrees of accuracy by several approaches. A method that uses a classification approach is for the initial estimate is described. The initial estimate is modified by the application of a single set of regression coefficients that is valid for all latitudes and seasons. Retrievals from this method are compared to the operational retrievals obtained by the National Environmental Satellite, Data, and Information Service (NESDIS). The comparison is based on the carefully matched radiosonde-retrieval pairs that are used in the operational system to update retrieval coefficients. About 10% of the data covering the period July 1987-July 1988 was used to generate the coefficients for both the classification and the retrieval that are used in the classification method. The classification method was then used to process data covering the period July 1987-July 1989. Results from about 100 000 soundings covering the two-year period show the classification method to be consistently (0.2-0.3 K rms) better than the operational method in the lower atmosphere, the region for which the classification was optimized, and slightly was near 100 hPa. A significant feature of the evaluation is that all the coefficients used in the classification method were constant for the two years. Most retrieval systems are periodically tuned to agree with radiosondes. Examination of the mean from the classification retrievals produced with fixed coefficients show a slight drift over the two years in the lower atmosphere, a sudden change in the upper atmosphere, (probably due to a change in one or more channels), and seasonal changes in bias at some levels. These effects are diminished in the operational results because the operational coefficients are adjusted to agree with radiosonde reports once a week. The increase in accuracy of the classification retrievals over the operational ones could be enhanced by updating the class means using a procedure similar to the one currently employed by the operational system. The evaluation period happened to include the time when a major change was made to the operational method and shows a slight improvement in the operational results after the change.

AB Pressure transducers with quartz-crystal resonators are being used to measure deep-ocean bottom pressure in the northeast Pacific as part of a long-term monitoring program. In principal, instrument sensitivity is less than 1 mm for sea-level oscillations of periods greater than a few minutes; in practice, however, system resolution is limited by long-term sensor drift and background noise. Data are digitally recorded at a rate of 64 samples per hour but selectable intervals ranging from 4 to 128 samples per hour are possible. The field program has focused on the maintenance of five permanent stations in the northeast Pacific since 1986. During this time, phenomena over a wide range of time scales have been recorded, including tides and the seismic surface waves and tsunamis generated by three earthquakes in the Alaskan Bight.

AB A calcium phosphate cement, Grossman sealer, and Sargenti N2 were compared under conditions where root canals of monkey incisors were deliberately overfilled and the apical tissue responses were evaluated histologically. The periapical tissues exposed to Sargenti N2 revealed severe irritation at all times through the 6-month experimental period. The reactions to Grossman sealer were milder but persisted throughout the observation period. The calcium-phosphate-cement treated animals showed mild tissue irritation after 1 month, but thereafter the adverse tissue reactions were minimal. New bone formation adjacent to the cement was also observed. These results point to the possibility that calcium phosphate cement might be used in simplified endodontic procedures. The compatibility of calcium phosphate cement with the periapical tissue suggests that the cement may have other applications in dentistry and medicine.

ID BINARY ALLOY; STABILITY; FLOWS; CYLINDER; MELT
AB During directional solidification of a binary alloy at constant velocity, thermosolutal convection may occur due to the temperature and solute gradients associated with the solidification process. For vertical growth in an ideal furnace (lacking horizontal gradients) a quiescent state is possible. For a range of processing conditions, the thermal Rayleigh number is sufficiently small that the stabilizing role of the thermal field during growth vertically upwards may be neglected, and only solutal convection need be considered. The effect of a time-periodic vertical gravitational acceleration (or equivalently vibration) on the onset of solutal convection is calculated based on linear stability using Floquet theory. We find that a stable base state can be destabilized due to modulation, while an unstable state can be stabilized. The flow and solute disturbance fields show both synchronous and subharmonic temporal response to the driving sinusoidal modulation.

AB Taguchi developed his catalog of orthogonal arrays from mathematical procedures published in well-known English language journals. These arrays evolved as extensions of factorial plans and latin squares. This paper illustrates the fractional factorial nature of Taguchi's two-, three-, four-, and five-element orthogonal arrays. Similarly Taguchi's mixed-element orthogonal arrays define fractionated multi-level factorial plans. Thus Taguchi's orthogonal arrays are an element in the cantinuum of the development and use of statistically planned experiments.

AB Asymptotic expressions are obtained for the kernel functions M approximately2(tau, a, beta) and K approximately2(tau, a, beta) appearing in the theory of line formation with complete redistribution over a Voigt profile with damping parameter a, in the presence of a source of continuous opacity parameterized by beta. For a > 0, each coefficient in the asymptotic series is expressed as the product of analytic functions of a and eta = beta-tau-separately. For Doppler broadening, only the leading term can be evaluated analytically.

TI ANALYSIS OF TOXIC AIR CONTAMINANT DATA CONTAINING CONCENTRATIONS BELOW
THE LIMIT OF DETECTION
SO JOURNAL OF THE AIR & WASTE MANAGEMENT ASSOCIATION
LA English
DT Article
ID PARAMETERS
AB Air quality data often contain several observations reported only as below the analytical limit of detection (LOD), resulting in "censored" data sets. Such censored and/or truncated data sets tend to complicate statistical analysis. This paper discusses various procedures for estimating mean concentration and its 95 percent confidence bounds from air contaminant data sets which contain values that are reported as below the LOD. A quantitative approach for assessing the uncertainty inherent in the estimated mean concentration due to (a) presence of values below the LOD in the data set, and (b) natural variability of atmospheric concentration data, is described. The utility of this approach in the analysis and interpretation of ambient pollutant concentration data is demonstrated for both hypothetical and observed singly-censored data sets, and for a multiply-censored, multi-pollutant observed concentration data set. The methodologies discussed here should be particularly useful in verifying compliance with environmental regulations, and in estimating the risks associated with long-term exposure of populations to toxic air contaminants and assessing the uncertainty associated with these estimates.

AB Using a megahertz-frequency ultrasonic method, we measured the elastic constants of a composite consisting of seventy-volume-percent tungsten particles in a copper matrix. We report the Young, shear, and bulk moduli, and the Poisson ratio. Tungsten is much stiffer than copper: the Young-modulus ratio equals 410/129 = 3.2. Thus, from a linear rule-of-mixture, we expected large departures, which we found. (The Poisson ratio comes close to a linear rule-of-mixture.) Unexpectedly, we found a substantial elastic anisotropy: eighteen percent in the shear modulus. To model the system, we used a scattered-plane-wave ensemble-average approach. For the four elastic constants listed above, we found reasonable model-measurement agreement, one-to-seven percent for the averaged-over-direction measurements. Assuming oblatespheroidal (c/a = 0.5) particles improves the agreement: two percent or less for the four cases.

AB The segment density distribution of symmetric, diblock copolymers of poly(styrene), PS, and poly(methyl methacrylate), PMMA, denoted P(S-b-MMA), were investigated by neutron reflectivity. Selective labeling of either block of the P(S-b-MMA) or of the PS or PMMA with deuterium provided the contrast necessary to isolate the distribution of the segments of the components at the interface. Results from a series of experiments were used to solve a simultaneous set of linear equations that yielded the segment density profiles of the PS and PMMA segments of the homopolymers and copolymers at the interface. It was found that the interface formed between the PS and PMMA segments could be described by a hyperbolic tangent function with an effective width of 75 angstrom. This width is 50% broader than that found between the PS and PMMA homopolymers in the absence of the diblock copolymer and between the PS and PMMA lamellar microdomains of the pure P(S-b-MMA) in the bulk. A significant penetration of the PS and PMMA homopolymers into the interfacial region was also found. The area occupied by the copolymer at the interface between the homopolymers is 30% larger than that of the copolymers in the bulk, lamellar microstructure.

AB The number of configurations W(N,z;r,v(r),alpha-i;M,beta-i,x(i)) of a polymer in a field of fixed obstacles is obtained. The cubic lattice of N sites has a coordination number z and is of d = z/2 dimensions. The obstacles are modeled as rigid rods or rigid but bent polymers of length r and of volume fraction upsilon-r. A fraction alpha-i of the obstacle bonds are oriented in orientation i. The flexible polymer which we place into the field of rigid obstacles is of length M, has beta-i of its bonds lying in orientation i, and has an end-to-end-length given by x(i). The formula for W results in expectation values only a few percent different from the exact expressions for the known special cases. The beta-i are not fixed numbers but rather occur with a probability given by W. With the maximum term method the dimensions of the polymer are calculated. The polymer is elongated in the direction of alignment of the obstacles. The volume of the polymer is found to increase with volume fraction of obstacles for isotropically ordered obstacles, but it decreases for high concentrations of obstacles if the obstacles are strongly aligned. The scaling law exponent upsilon describing molecular weight dependence of linear polymer dimension is 0.6 for each of the three dimensions but deviates from this value for large elongation. Seven possible applications of the formula are discussed.

AB The possible causes of enrichments of dissolved Cu in the bottom waters of Puget Sound were examined in a series of experiments designed to measure the release of Cu from surface marine organic suspended matter and from sewage-derived particles under ambient conditions. Decomposition of organic matter and ion-exchange controlled the release of about one-third of the Cu bound to large particles (> 53-mu-m). In contrast, no Cu was released from smaller particles (< 53-mu-m) suspended in natural seawater and only 5% of the Cu on small particles was released into artificial seawater with a low dissolved Cu concentration. Within 15 min of mixing primary effluent with natural seawater, 40% of the dissolved Cu was lost from solution by flocculation. Between 15 min and 4 days, 25% of the total effluent Cu was released back into solution. This release could have originated either from particulate Cu on the original sewage particles or from the flocculated Cu that was formed from dissolved Cu within the first 15 min. The release of Cu into the bottom waters of Puget Sound from settling marine organic matter was calculated to have been between 1 and 8-mu-g Cu m-2 day-1, which is comparable with the diffusion of Cu from sediments. In contrast, the release of sewage-derived Cu could have been as high as 725-mu-g Cu m-2 day-1 within 10 km of outfall.

AB A strong density-dependent relationship has been observed for the walleye pollock Theragra chalcogramma population in the Western Gulf of Alaska. It has been suggested that this relationship may be attributed in part to egg cannibalism by the adult spawning stock. This hypothesis was examined by collecting stomach samples of walleye pollock from the main spawning area over 5 yr. Eggs were prevalent in many stomachs, especially in those from the older age classes. The mean number of eggs in the stomachs was not related to the overall amount of food in the stomach but was linearly related to the density of eggs in the water column. Total egg consumption was estimated for 3 years (1986, 1988, and 1989) and was found to be only a small (<1) percentage of the total egg production. Even during a year (1981) of peak adult abundance, the total calculated egg consumption was less than 3% of the total egg production. A passive filtration model provided estimates similar to those observed in the field. We conclude that egg cannibalism alone would not account for the high egg mortalities observed.

SO MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW
LA English
DT Article
ID PREDICTION; SURFACE; MODELS
AB A 3-h intermittent data assimilation system (Mesoscale Analysis and Prediction System-MAPS) configured in isentropic coordinates was developed and implemented in real-time operation. The major components of the system are data ingest, objective quality control of the observations, objective analysis, and a primitive equation forecast model, all using isentropic coordinates to take advantage of the improved resolution near frontal zones and greater spatial coherence of data that this coordinate system provides. Each 3-h forecast becomes the background for the subsequent analysis; in this manner, a four-dimensional set of observations can be assimilated.
The primary asynoptic data source used in current real-time operation of this system is aircraft data, most of it automated. Data from wind profilers, surface observations, and radiosondes are also included in MAPS.
Statistics were collected over the last half of 1989 and into 1990 to study the performance of MAPS and compare it with that of the Regional Analysis and Forecast System (RAFS), which is run operationally at the National Meteorological Center (NMC). Analyses generally fit mandatory-level observations more closely in MAPS than in RAFS. Three-hour forecasts from MAPS, incorporating asynoptic aircraft reports, improve on 12-h MAPS forecasts valid at the same time for all levels and variables, and also improve on 12-h RAFS forecasts of upper-level winds. This result is due to the quality and volume of the aircraft data as well as the effectiveness of the isentropic data assimilation used. Forecast fields at other levels are slightly poorer than those from RAFS. This may be largely due to the lack of diabatic and boundary-layer physics for the MAPS model used in this test period.

The potential uses in radiation processing, radiation sterilization of medical devices, population control of insects by irradiation, food irradiation, blood irradiation for organ-transplant immuno-suppression, clinical radiography, and industrial radiography have led to the present sensitometric study over the breadth of the wide dynamic range of this new routine detector and imaging material, namely, absorbed doses from 10 Gy to 5 x 10(4) Gy. The thin-coated film is colorless before irradiation, and registers a deep-blue image upon irradiation, with two absorption bands at about 650 nm (major band) and 600 nm (minor band). The response to electrons, in terms of increase in absorbance per unit absorbed dose, is the same as that to gamma radiation within the estimated uncertainty of the measurements (+/- 5%, 95% confidence level). The spatial resolving power is > 1200 lines/mm. After the first 24 hours, the image is stable over many months (within +/- 5% in absorbance), however, the system should be irradiated and analyzed at approximately the temperatures used during calibration, because of temperature dependence during irradiation and readout, and temperatures greater than 55-degrees-C should be avoided.

AB X-ray absorption and emission measurements in the vicinity of the chlorine K edge of the three chlorofluoromethanes have been made using monochromatic synchrotron radiation as the source of excitation. By selectively tuning the incident radiation to just above the Cl 1s single-electron ionization threshold for each molecule, less complex x-ray-emission spectra are obtained. This reduction in complexity is attributed to the elimination of multielectron transitions in the Cl K shell, which commonly produce satellite features in x-ray emission. The resulting "satellite-free" x-ray-emission spectra exhibit peaks due only to electrons in valence molecular orbitals filling a single Cl 1s vacancy. These simplified emission spectra and the associated x-ray absorption spectra are modeled using straightforward procedures and compared with semiempirical ground-state molecular-orbital calculations. Good agreement is observed between the present experimental and theoretical results for valence-orbital energies and those obtained from ultraviolet photoemission, and between relative radiative yields determined both experimentally and theoretically in this work.

AB I predict that the differential cross sections for elastic and inelastic scattering of H- with atoms will exhibit sharp minima. These minima result from the cancellation between the contributions to the cross section by the positively charged nucleus and the two negatively charged electrons of H-. The location for such minima is predicted based on a simple first Born approximation, but should be correct at least for intermediate to high impact energies.

ID QUASICRYSTAL
AB Inelastic-neutron-scattering measurements on a single grain of icosahedral Al-Li-Cu are presented. Within experimental error the acoustic-phonon dispersion at small, but finite, q is independent of direction, confirming the isotropic elasticity expected for icosahedral crystals. By following the longitudinal-phonon dispersion curve along a fivefold axis we can identify the location of a "quasi-Brillouin-zone boundary." The measurements also suggest the presence of an optical or localized mode along the twofold axis at approximately 10-11 meV. We compare these results to theoretical calculations for one- and two-dimensional quasiperiodic systems.

It is found that the creep behavior overall is quite complex and that the one quantity which can best be used to predict useful lifetime of this material is the time at which necking is observed. The time to neck data has been used to generate a composite curve which can serve as an upper bound to lifetime prediction.

ID SYNCHROTRON RADIATION
AB Small alignment errors of right-angle linkage monochromators typical to many x-ray absorption fine structure beamlines can cause significant errors in the energy calibrations. A 1-degrees misalignment produces errors greater than 1 keV over the hard x-ray operating range of a typical monochromator. The energy error caused by such misalignments is analyzed and its mathematical form given. The error can be corrected by inverting the expression and the amount of misalignment determined by accurate energy measurements at a few points. The accuracy of the corrections is tested. The effects of this error on x-ray absorption fine structure data and their interpretation are also discussed.

TI MODEL-CALCULATIONS OF THE RISING MOTION OF A PROMINENCE LOOP
SO SOLAR PHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
ID FLARES
AB Model calculations are presented for the rising motion of the top section of a prominence loop, which is represented by a straight flux rope immersed in a coronal medium permeated with a bipolar magnetic field. Initially the prominence is at rest, in equilibrium with the surrounding coronal medium. When the magnetic monopoles that account for the source current for the bipolar field strengthen, the upward hydromagnetic buoyancy force overcomes the downward gravitational force so that the prominence is initiated into rising motion. The illustrative examples show that prominences can move away from the solar surface by the action of the hydromagnetic buoyancy force, which is preponderant with the diamagnetic force due to the current carried by the prominence interacting with the coronal magnetic field produced by the photospheric currents, if the changes in the photospheric magnetic field are sufficiently large.

AB Large disturbances in the interplanetary medium were observed by several spacecraft during a period of enhanced solar activity in early February 1986. The locations of six solar flares and the spacecraft considered here encompassed more than 100-degrees of heliolongitude. These flares during the minimum of cycle 21 set the stage for an extensive multi-spacecraft comparison performed with a two-dimensional, magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) numerical experiment. The plasma instruments on the European Space Agency (ESA)'s GIOTTO spacecraft, on its way to encounter Comet Halley in March 1986, made measurements of the solar wind for up to 8 hours per day during February. We compare solar wind measurements from the Johnstone Plasma Analyzer (JPA) experiment on GIOTTO with the MHD simulation of the interplanetary medium throughout these events. Using plasma data obtained by the IMP-8 satellite in addition, it appears that an extended period of high solar wind speed is required as well as the simulated flares to represent the interplanetary medium in this case. We also compare the plasma and magnetometer data from VEGA-1 with the MHD simulation. This comparison tends to support an interpretation that the major solar wind changes at both GIOTTO and VEGA-1 on 8 February, 1986 were due to a shock from a W05-degrees solar flare on 6 February, 1986 (06:25 UT). The numerical experiment is considered, qualitatively, to resemble the observations at the former spacecraft, but it has less success at the latter one.

AB We have analyzed 149 flare-associated shock wave events based on interplanetary scintillation (IPS) observational data. All of the flare-associated shock waves tend to propagate toward the low latitude region near the solar equator for flares that are located in both the solar northern and southern hemispheres. Also, the fastest propagation directions tend toward the heliospheric current sheet near 1 AU. We suggest that this tendency is caused by the dynamic action of near-Sun magnetic forces on the ejected coronal plasma that traverses the helmet-like magnetic topologies near the Sun outward to the classical topology that is essentially parallel to the heliospheric current sheet.

Field electron emission of about 10(-8) A for about 10 min, at 85 K, causes significant changes in composition which are interpreted to mean primarily that oxygen has diffused to the surface and desorbed, resulting in a more metallic surface. These changes are correlated with recently observed shifts in field ion- and field-electron energy spectra.

AB Associations between the season-to-season changes in CO2 concentration and the sea-surface temperature in the eastern equatorial Pacific, the tropospheric air temperature, and the precipitation in the tropics are explored. The CO2 records at Mauna Loa and the South Pole from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography and the GMCC/NOAA program, as well as the GMCC records at Barrow, Alaska and American Samoa were used after the annual cycle and the growth due to fossil fuel emission has been removed. We find that the correlation between CO2 changes and each of the other variables changes with time. In particular, the period from about 1968 to about 1978 was the period of highest correlation, which was also the period when the climate variables were best correlated with each other. The air temperature and the precipitation were as well correlated with CO2 changes as was SST. Also, there are individual seasons when the CO2 changes are much better correlated with the climate variables than at other seasons. Furthermore, El Nino events, while the source of the largest signal in the CO2 record, are by no means the same from one event to the next. We take these results as further confirmation that the apparent effect of SST on the CO2 record comes less from changes in the equatorial eastern Pacific Ocean than from climate changes throughout the globe. Climate effects on the terrestrial biosphere seem a likely source of much of the interannual variation in atmospheric CO2.

AB Heat capacity measurements of the gel to liquid crystalline transition of phosphocholine lipid suspensions in buffer solutions were performed using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) over a range of experimental conditions. Since the temperatures at the transition peak maxima, i.e. transition temperatures, were observed to increase linearly with scan rate due to the response time of the DSC, they were corrected to zero scan rate and found to agree closely with the literature values. The transition temperatures and enthalpies of the seven dialkylphosphatidylcholine lipids investigated ranged from 286.6 +/- 0.1 K and 15.9 +/- 0.6 kJ mol-1 for 1,2-ditridecanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine to 353.7 +/- 0.1 K and 69.1 +/- 3.3 kJ mol-1 for 1,2-ditetracosanoyl-sn-glycero-3-phosphocholine. At the slowest scan rates of 3-5 K h-1, the transition widths at half the peak maximum were close to 0.2 K. The transition temperatures were found to be independent of the following: the ionic strength of the sodium phosphate buffer from 0.01-0.02 M, the pH of the buffer from 6 to 8, the concentration of the suspension from 0.1-1.0 mass%, the commercial source of the lipid, and storage of the lipid in a freezer for 4 years. Suspensions of the dialkylphosphatidylcholine lipids in sodium phosphate buffer solutions can be used as sources of dynamic temperature data for the calibration of DSCs.

AB To take advantage of the beneficial properties of advanced ceramics, it is necessary that their friction coefficient be reduced to an acceptable value. One method for achieving this goal is incorporation of a solid lubricant phase in the ceramic matrix. In this study, ceramic-matrix composites were fabricated by drilling a series of small holes in alumina and silicon nitride, which were subsequently filled with NiCl2 intercalated graphite under high pressure. It was found that the addition of graphite to silicon nitride considerably reduces the friction coefficient, but alumina-graphite composites exhibit only a marginal reduction in friction coefficient compared to alumina. The reduction in friction coefficient for silicon nitride-graphite composite can be explained by the formation of transfer films consisting of a mixture of materials from both contacting surfaces. However, for alumina-graphite composites the graphite regions were completely covered with steel wear particles, inhibiting the formation of graphite-containing transfer films.

AB Microwave spectra of O3-CH2=CH2, O3-CD2=CH2, O3-trans-CHD=CHD, and O3-cis-CHD=CHD have been observed with a pulsed-beam Fabry-Perot cavity, Fourier transform microwave spectrometer. Internal motions in the van der Waals complex give two states for the normal, 1,1-dideuterated and trans-1,2-dideuterated isotopic forms. The c-type transitions of the two states for the isotopic species above, as well as the one observed isotopic form of O3-cis-CHD=CHD, independently fit to an asymmetric top Watson Hamiltonian. Stark effect measurements for O3-CH2=CH2 give mu-a = 0.017 (1) D and mu-c = 0.466 (2) D. The microwave data are only consistent with a structure having C(S) symmetry in which the nearly parallel planes of ethylene and ozone have a center of mass separation of R(cm) = 3.290 (3) angstrom. Ab initio calculations at the MP4 level indicate that the preferred geometry corresponds to small tilts of the ozone and ethylene planes, which place an exo-oriented pair of hydrogens toward the terminal oxygens of ozone. Both the theoretical and microwave results suggest the tunneling splitting arises at least in part from a 180-degrees rotation of ethylene about its C2 axis, which is perpendicular to the ethylene plane. 1,3-Dipolar cycloaddition theory, orbital symmetry rules, and ab initio calculations of the complex and transition states are used to argue that O3-CH2=CH2 lies in a shallow minimum on the reaction coordinate prior to the transition state in the reaction of ozone plus ethylene, which produces the primary product 1,2,3-trioxolane.

AB Aluminum-based Al-TM-Si (TM = transition metal) when rapidly solidified (RS) and consolidated could show a microstructure of fine, slow coarsening dispersoids. One such alloy, Al-5Mn-5Fe-2Si (wt.%), in its RS condition was studied in this work by scanning and transmission electron microscopy. The alloy powder was prepared by an inert gas atomization technique. The powder was separated to different particle size fractions in order to determine its microstructural dependence on particle size. The following microstructures (with increasing particle size) were observed: microcellular/cellular aluminum with an amorphous-type intercellular phase, eutectic and primary globular particles. The observed structures of the globular particles display various growth forms of the alpha(AlMnFeSi) intermetallic phase depending on the degree of undercooling. The icosahedral symmetry of naturally occurring polycrystalline aggregates or defective quasicrystals is related to the icosahedral symmetry of the alpha(AlMnFeSi) phase structural motif.

AB The first direct spectroscopic evidence and characterization of triplet states in a molecular dication is reported. The 3-PI-g <-- 3-SIGMA-u+ electronic absorption between excited states of N2(2+) is recorded by ion-laser coaxial beam photofragmentation spectroscopy. Over 300 rotational lines are resolved, and 13 parameters characterizing the upper and lower electronic states are determined. The results are compared with calculated potential energy curves. Dissociation lifetimes of the upper rotational levels are measured, and possible mechanisms of dissociation are discussed.

AB As part of a theoretical reexamination of the electronic states of N2(2+), we have used multireference configuration interaction wave functions with CASSCF reference states and a [5s,4p,3d,2f,1g] generally contracted Gaussian basis to calculate ab initio potential curves of the excited 3-SIGMA-u+ and 3-PI-g electronic states. The calculated energy difference and spectroscopic constants support the assignment of the N2(2+) spectral lines observed near 15 300 cm-1 as the upsilon' = 0 <-- upsilon" = 0 band of the 3-PI-g <-- 3-SIGMA-u+ transition. The upsilon' = 0 <-- upsilon" = 1 band is predicted to lie at 13 146 cm-1 and the upsilon' = 1 <-- upsilon" = 0 band at 16 246 cm-1. The latter transition may be the broad, unassigned feature observed by Cosby and co-workers near that energy.

AB Photolysis of 10-methylacridan (AH) in acetonitrile solutions containing CCl4 led to quantitative oxidation of AH to A+. Laser flash photolysis of the solution with 248- or 308-nm light yielded the cation radical AH.+ which decays by deprotonation to give the neutral radical A.. AH.+ could be also generated by means of homogeneous redox catalysis using variously substituted ferrocenes and the rate of deprotonation k(H) by various bases was derived from both techniques. There is a good agreement between the values determined for k(H) (here and, previously, by direct electrochemistry using ultramicroelectrodes). The vast majority of the data points in a plot of log k(H) vs the pK(a) of the bases, covering 18 pK(a) units and rate constants up to the diffusion limit, fall on the same Bronsted line in spite of the fact that they involve bases of quite different structure: pyridines, aliphatic nitrogen bases, and carboxylates. Gamma-radiolysis of acetonitrile/CCl4/AH solutions also resulted in quantitative oxidation to A+. However, pulse radiolysis of this system indicated relatively slow oxidation of AH by Cl3COO. radicals. Pulse radiolysis experiments in acidic aqueous solutions showed that AH is oxidized by Cl2.- to give AH.+, which decays with a first-order rate constant of 9 x 10(2) s-1. Reduction of A+ gave A. which did not undergo protonation even at 2 M HClO4, but reaction of A+ with H atoms resulted in partial addition of H to the 9-position to give AH.+.

AB Merocyanine 540 (MC) shows promise as a treatment for certain types of leukemia. It is shown that MC readily undergoes one-electron reduction under pulse radiolytic conditions. The pi-radical anion, produced by reduction with hydrated electrons and 2-hydroxypropyl radicals, disproportionates rapidly (k = 1.9 x 10(9) M-1 s-1) under anaerobic conditions but reduces O2 to superoxide ions (k = 1.6 x 10(9) M-1 s-1) in aerated solution. The dye reacts with trichloromethylperoxyl radicals (k = 9 x 10(8) M-1 s-1) to form several products, one of which is believed to be an adduct formed by addition of CCl3OO. to the bridgehead carbon atom of the benzoxazole subunit. This species decays via first-order kinetics (k = 4.0 x 10(3) s-1) under pulse radiolytic conditions to form cleavage products. A second primary product is believed to arise from addition of CCl3O2. to the polymethine chain to form an alpha-amino carbon-centered radical capable of reducing O2 to superoxide ions. Preliminary studies indicate that the breakdown products are cytotoxic and could be important intermediates for the known antiviral activity of MC.

AB Several of the beta-diketonate metal complexes used for metal organic chemical vapor deposition (MOCVD) of thin-film superconductors have been characterized by thermogravimetric analysis, mass spectrometry, and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The volatility of the alkaline-earth-metal chelates has been studied, and it has been determined that one reason the alkaline-earth-metal chelates are less volatile than other metal beta-diketonates is that they exist as oligomers. For example, one barium beta-diketonate chelate consists of a cluster of five metal ions bridged by beta-diketonate carbonyl oxygens and water molecules. It has also been found that the addition of uncomplexed (protonated) beta-keto enolate ligand to the carrier gas stream greatly improves the gas chromatographic behavior of these alkaline-earth-metal chelates, probably owing to adduct formation accompanying the dissociation of the oligomers. The results of these studies, as well as the implications for using these chelates together with auxiliary ligands for MOCVD, will be discussed.

AB Local ozone loss rates due to the ClO + ClO and BrO + ClO cycles are calculated using ClO, pressure, and temperature from in-situ aircraft measurements and representative BrO mixing ratios. Ozone loss during the vertical profiles executed by the ER-2 near 72-degrees-S usually extended over a deep altitude range rather than reaching a maximum at the top of the profiles. This is due to the strong pressure dependence of the rate determining steps. In the Antarctic, very high ozone loss rates (> 5.10(6) cm-3 s-1) were observed at altitudes with potential temperatures below 400 K, where advective exchange is likely to be much more rapid than at higher altitudes. On September 22, 1987, the ER-2 measured an ozone loss rate of about 2.8 Dobson units (DU) per 12 sunlit hours in the 350-400 K range and 2.0 DU in the 400-450 K range near 72-degrees-S. Rapid ozone loss in the Arctic did not extend below 400 K in the available data. The calculated average loss rate, which is nonlinear, in general depends on the order in which the terms are averaged. Loss rates calculated by averaging the ClO, pressure and temperature for up to 2400 s (about 500 km) generally agree with the average of the local loss rate to within one percent except at the edge of the vortex, where the difference can be up to 30%. Adiabatic temperature changes of up to 10 K change the ozone loss rate by less than 10% because the temperature and pressure effects nearly cancel. Thermal decomposition of Cl2O2 was not important along sunlit portions of ER-2 flight tracks if equilibrium is assumed between ClO and Cl2O2. The effect of recalibration of the ClO data on the calculated loss rates is discussed.

AB The reaction probabilities, gamma, of ClONO2 and N2O5 on ice and nitric acid trihydrate (NAT) surfaces were determined, using reactant concentrations that are typical of the lower stratosphere, by measuring the first-order reactant loss rate coefficients over the substrate located on the walls of a fast-flow reactor. Reactants were detected using chemical ionization mass spectrometry, a sensitive technique which allows the use of low reactant concentrations. The reaction probabilities obtained for ClONO2 are: 0.3 (-0.1 +0.7) on pure ice, 0.006 (+/- 30%) over a NAT surface, and 0.3 (-0.1 +0.7) on an HCl-doped NAT surface. Those for N2O5 are: 0.024 (+/- 30%) on pure ice, 0.0006 (+/- 50%) on a NAT surface, and 0.0032 (+/- 30%) on an HCl-doped NAT surface. We observed that an ice surface will be converted into a less reactive HNO3-doped ice surface in a relatively short time, and we present arguments that this surface consisted of a NAT layer. The large differences between our results and previous measurements for some of these gamma can be attributed to the relatively large reactant concentrations used in the previous work. The major implications of this work for polar stratospheric chlorine activation are: an efficient loss of ClONO2 on pure ice surfaces, a very rapid rate for the reaction ClONO2 + HCl on NAT surfaces, and that pure ice surfaces will become "passivated" when coated with one monolayer of NAT crystal.

AB An airborne continuous wave (CW) focused CO2 Doppler lidar and a ground-based pulsed CO2 Doppler lidar were used to obtain seven pairs of comparative measurements of tropospheric aerosol backscatter profiles at 10.6-mu-m wavelength, near Denver, Colorado, during a 20-day period in July 1982. In regions of uniform backscatter the two lidars show good agreement, with differences usually less than approximately 50% near 8-km altitude and less than a factor of 2 or 3 elsewhere but with the pulsed lidar often lower than the CW lidar. Near sharp backscatter gradients the two lidars show poorer agreement, with the pulsed lidar usually higher than the CW lidar. Most discrepancies arise from a combination of atmospheric factors and instrument factors, particularly small-scale areal and temporal backscatter heterogeneity above the planetary boundary layer, unusual large-scale vertical backscatter structure in the upper troposphere and lower stratosphere, and differences in the spatial resolution, detection threshold, and noise estimation for the two lidars.

AB Measurements of tropospheric aerosol volume backscatter coefficients at 10.6-mu-m wavelength were obtained with airborne continuous wave and ground-based pulsed CO2 Doppler lidars over the Colorado High Plains during a 20-day period in summer 1982. A persistent "background" layer was found between 6- and 10-km altitude, with a generally uniform backscatter mixing ratio of approximately 10(-10) m2 kg-1 sr-1. The upper boundary of this background layer varied with the tropopause height; the lower boundary varied with the strength and diurnal cycle of convective mixing in the planetary boundary layer (PBL). For quiescent meteorological conditions the transition from the PBL to the background layer was usually very sharp, with backscatter decreases sometimes as large as 3 decades in approximately 70 m. Sharp gradients were also found at the boundaries of shallow (tens of meters) subvisible cirrus clouds. For less stable conditions, associated with vertical aerosol transport by deep cumuliform clouds, backscatter tended to decrease exponentially with altitude.

AB IR emission patterns for a series of cylindrical holes milled into aluminum and steel plates were compared with those predicted from existing theory. The emission patterns were found to be influenced by the hole geometry, the substrate material and the IR camera system itself. For holes milled into an aluminum plate, the results were adequately explained by existing theory for diffuse materials. For holes milled into a steel plate, however, this theory was found not to apply and empirical calibration was required. It is concluded that the IR technique may have promise in characterizing the diameter and depth of milled holes at temperatures near ambient.

AB We have measured the transport critical current density (J(c)) in epitaxial quality films of YBa2Cu3O7-delta some of which were covered by thin (10 nm) Ag films. The films, both with and without Ag, had J(c) values greater than 10(6) A/cm2 in liquid nitrogen. The effect of the Ag was to greatly reduce the dependence of J(c) on external magnetic fields in the case where the field was oriented in the plane of the film, that is, perpendicular to the c axis. It is unlikely that the effect is simply due to altered surface pinning, although qualitative agreement with critical state models is observed.

AB Photoluminescence excitation (PLE) spectra at photon energies near the indirect band gap of diamond have been obtained for diamond films grown by the filament-assisted chemical vapor deposition (CVD) method. The PLE intensity was observed to increase abruptly with photon energy above 5.5 eV. This increase coincides with the onset of phonon-emission-assisted interband absorption, which was observed independently by diffuse transmittance measurements. A lower-energy PLE threshold at approximately 5.25 eV, which coincides approximately with the onset of phonon-absorption-assisted interband absorption, was observed in the spectrum of a gem-quality natural diamond, but not in the spectra of the CVD-grown films. Emission spectra of the luminescence excited by above-band-gap photons have features similar to luminescence spectra of the same specimens excited by 20-keV electrons. The spectrally integrated intensities of the luminescence excited by above-band-gap photons and by electrons were found to vary from specimen to specimen in a linearly related manner, suggesting that similar recombination processes occur in both cases.

AB The rovibrational state distribution of the nascent NH2(A-approximately 2A1) fragments generated by 193.3 nm photodissociation of a room temperature sample of NH3 is determined through an analysis of a major portion (6000-13 000 cm-1) of the NH2(A-approximately 2A1 --> X-approximately 2B1) near infrared emission spectrum obtained by time-resolved Fourier transform infrared emission spectroscopy. The NH2(A-approximately) fragments are observed to be formed predominantly in their zero-point vibrational level, with substantial rotational excitation about their a-inertial axis up to the limit of the available energy, approximately 3150 cm-1, but with little excitation about the other axes. The pattern of this energy disposal is discussed within the framework of existing knowledge regarding the form of the NH3 A-approximately state potential energy surface on which the dissociation occurs. The essential features are entirely consistent with a direct carry over, into the fragment, of the out-of-plane bending vibrational motion introduced in the parent molecule by the photoexcitation process.

TI THE ARCTIC SNOW AND AIR-TEMPERATURE BUDGET OVER SEA ICE DURING WINTER
SO JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH-OCEANS
LA English
DT Article
ID BOUNDARY-LAYER; MODEL
AB Arctic cooling through the fall-winter transition is calculated from a coupled atmosphere-sea ice thermal model and compared to temperature soundings and surface measurements made north of Svalbard during the Coordinated Eastern Arctic Experiment (CEAREX). A typical winter, clear-sky vertical temperature structure of the polar air mass is composed of a surface-based temperature inversion or an inversion above a very shallow (30-180 m) mechanically mixed boundary layer with temperatures -30-degrees to -35-degrees-C, a broad temperature maximum layer of -20-degrees to -25-degrees-C between 0.5 and 2 km, and a negative lapse rate aloft. Because the emissivity of the temperature maximum layer is less than that of the snow surface, radiative equilibrium maintains this low level temperature inversion structure. A 90-day simulation shows that heat flux through the ice is insufficient to maintain a local thermal equilibrium. Northward temperature advection by transient storms is required to balance outward longwave radiation to space. Leads and thin ice (< 0.8 m) contribute 12% to the winter tropospheric heat balance in the central Arctic. CEAREX temperature soundings and longwave radiation data taken near 81-degrees-N show polar air mass characteristics by early November, but numerous storms interrupted this air mass during December. Snow temperature changes of 15-degrees-C occurred in response to changes in downward atmospheric longwave radiation of 90 W m-2 between cloud and clear sky. We propose that the strength of boundary layer stability, and thus the degree of air-ice momentum coupling, is driven by the magnitude of the radiation deficit (downward-outward longwave) at the surface and the potential temperature of the temperature maximum layer. This concept is of potential benefit in prescribing atmospheric forcing for sea ice models because a surface air temperature-snow temperature difference field is difficult to obtain and it may be possible to obtain a radiation deficit field via satellite sensors.

ID DRAG COEFFICIENTS; SEA ICE; WAVE
AB The NOAA P-3 research aircraft carried out measurements of the mean and turbulence structure of the planetary boundary layer on March 27 and 30, 1989, at 83-degrees-N, 10-degrees-E in the central Arctic. The ice motion was strongly decoupled from the atmosphere; surface winds were 2-3 m s-1 and winds at 100 m were 10 to 12 m s-1 on March 27 and 8 m s-1 on March 30. Geostrophic drag coefficients were 0.014 and 0.015. The mean vertical structure on both days is characterized by a shallow slightly stable layer approximately 50 m deep at the surface with a 300-m-deep strong inversion above. Speed shear was 0.1 s-1 in the slightly stable layer and direction shear at the top of the layer was 15-degrees-20-degrees on March 27 and 35-degrees-40-degrees on March 30. Profiles of the Richardson number for each day showed that Ri was less than 0.25 in the slightly stable layer and rapidly increased above. A low level jet was located at the top of the slightly stable layer just below the level where the Richardson number became very large. Shear-induced turbulence at the top of the slightly stable layer resulted in a maximum of turbulence kinetic energy just below the wind maximum on March 27 and at the wind maximum on March 30. Heat flux profiles from the gust probe measurements showed a maximum of upward flux at the top of the slightly stable layer of 9 W m-2, implying that the flux was countergradient. This upward flux was responsible for maintaining the strength of the inversion above this level. Spectra of turbulent vertical velocity showed a peak at a wavelength of 350-400 m. The source of this peak is gravity waves from an upper level shear layer. It is speculated that the observed countergradient flux was a result of gravity waves and/or wave-turbulence eddy flux. Use of an E-epsilon turbulence closure model allowed an estimation of the sensible heat flux from the air to the snow surface of 4 W m-2. This surface flux played only a secondary role in cooling the surface layer and establishing the structure of the boundary layer compared to inversion layer processes.

AB In order to develop an operational method for the U.S. Navy/NOAA Joint Ice Center to extract ice velocity vectors from sequential advanced very high resolution radiometer (AVHRR) imagery, we have combined the maximum cross correlation (MCC) method with a spatial filtering technique on the image inferred ice motion vectors. We compute the cross correlations between images directly from the image brightness values rather than computing FFTs. The direct method allows greater flexibility in computational parameter settings and allows one to compute motion vectors near coastlines where irregular windows are required. By using a combination of statistical and spatial filters we can then retrieve coherent ice motion vectors in the presence of cloud contaminated imagery. A series of six satellite images of the Fram Strait region, from April 1986, was used to compute sea ice motion from pairs of sequential images. The resulting ice motion vectors were taken as a representation of the surface flow field derived objectively from the satellite imagery. Resulting vector motion fields were found to match well with manually tracked vectors for the same images, thus verifying the validity of the objective MCC method of computing ice motion. These techniques were applied to both the visible and infrared AVHRR channels and to images with different spatial resolutions yielding an overall bias accuracy of about 0.5 cm/s and standard deviations of about 0.9 cm/s. The MCC ice motion results were also compared with wind-driven numerical model simulations of the region. Marked differences between the MCC image-derived velocities and those from the numerical model were thought to be primarily due to a stronger ocean current than was present in the model.

AB Analyses of a composite 6.5-year record of Bahamas minus Miami sea level difference (SLD) and Florida-Bahamas volume transport determined from submarine cable voltages (CABLE) support the hypothesis advanced by Maul et al. (1990) that SLD is the better variable for monitoring volume transport than western side sea level alone. In the subseasonal frequency band BW1 (393(-1)-182(-1) cycles per day), modeled CABLE, when using SLD, accounts for 79% of the variance of observed CABLE. Further, the phase relationships of modeled CABLE with respect to SLD in BW1 represent approximately a simple time shift in that SLD leads CABLE by a little more than 2 weeks.

AB An electric field sounding through the transition zone precipitation minimum that trailed an Oklahoma squall line on 18 June 1987 provides information about the electrical structure within a midlatitude trailing stratiform cloud. A single-Doppler radar analysis concurrent with the flight depicts a kinematic structure dominated by two mesoscale flow regimes previously identified in squall-line systems: a strong midlevel, front-to-rear flow coinciding with the stratiform cloud layer and a descending rear inflow that sloped from 6.5 km AGL at the stratiform cloud's trailing edge to 1.5 km AGL at the convective line. Electric field magnitudes as high as 113 kV m-1 were observed by the electric field sounding, which reveals an electric field structure comparable in magnitude and complexity to structures reported for convective cells of thunderstorms. The charge regions inferred with an approximation to Gauss' law have charged density magnitudes of 0.2-4.1 nC m-3 and vertical thicknesses of 130-1160 m; these values, too, are comparable to those reported for thunderstorm cells. In agreement with previous studies, an analysis of the lightning data revealed a "bipolar" cloud-to-ground lightning pattern with positive flashes being relatively more common in the stratiform region.
From the analysis, we conclude that the stratiform region electrical structure may have been advected from the squall line convective cells as the in-cloud charge regions were primarily found within the front-to-rear flow. Screening layers were found at the lower and upper cloud boundaries. In situ microphysical charging also seems to be a possible source of charge in the stratiform region. We hypothesize that the radar-derived similarities of this system to those previously documented suggests that the newly-documented stratiform electrical structure might also be representative of this type of mesoscale convective system.

AB Neutron focusing, or increased current density at the expense of increased beam divergence, can be obtained by the addition of a converging guide at the end of a straight guide. The greatest gains are achieved when the critical angle of the coating of the converging guide is much greater than that of the straight guide. The gain is limited, however, by the increase in angle that the neutron trajectory makes with the axis upon successive reflections. Acceptance diagrams are used for deriving analytical expressions for describing the transmission properties of such systems. The results can be reduced to nine basic formulae depending on the geometric configuration and the coatings of the guides. A graphical method is presented for determining the appropriate expression for the current density gain for a particular guide configuration and relative surface coatings, as a function of wavelength. The results are in agreement with earlier measurements obtained with a straight-converging guide system.

AB A fluid interface near a critical point is commonly pictured as an intrinsic interface broadened by thermally excited capillary waves. A comparison of the capillary-wave theory with experiments is hampered by the presence of two short-wavelength cutoff parameters in the theory. We review a procedure introduced earlier for fixing these cutoff parameters, so that a definite comparison can be made with experimental reflectivity data reported by Huang and Webb for a binary liquid (methanol + cyclohexane) near the consolute temperature, and by Wu and Webb for a one-component fluid (sulfurhexafluoride) near the critical temperature. We show that the temperature dependence of the reflectivity data for the binary liquid is consistent with a nonuniversal temperature dependence predicted by capillary-wave theory. The reflectivity data of the vapor-liquid interface of SF6 do not appear to be consistent with the binary-liquid reflectivities and do not show the predicted temperature dependence.

AB Measurements of the ellipticity and the reflectivity of liquid-liquid interfaces in mixtures near their consolute points are compared with theories of the interface. Both sets of measurements yield the same interfacial thickness within experimental error when scaled appropriately by theories that combine both the intrinsic density-profile and capillary-wave aspects of the interface. The theories correctly predict the temperature dependence of the thickness, but systematically overestimate the thickness itself. When the few comparable data for pure fluids are scaled by the same theories, they show an unexpected temperature dependence of the thickness, which is not consistent with the mixture results.

AB Measurements of transient and steady-state light emission and of current transients from Ar at very high electric field to gas-density ratios E/n and low gas densities show that the excitation of the 811-nm lines of Ar is primarily by fast neutral Ar atoms. A drift tube with parallel-plane electrodes produces a spatially uniform electric field. Pulsed laser irradiation at 266 nm of the semitransparent cathode produces current pulses of almost-equal-to 10 mA and almost-equal-to 10 ns width. The time and spatial dependences of the line emission at 811 +/- 1 and 750 +/- 1 nm were measured for E/n in the range 280 townsend (Td) to 84 kTd at gas densities from 1.3 x 10(23) to 9 x 10(20) m-3, where 1 Td = 10(-21) V m2. At E/n < 4 kTd the time dependence of the 811-nm emission is consistent with direct and cascade excitation due to electron collisions with Ar. At E/n > 18 kTd the emission transient consists of an early peak caused by the initial electron avalanche followed by a delayed peak that moves toward the cathode with an apparent velocity of about twice that of the ions. Steady-state 811-nm emission is also observed in a region of very low electric field near the cathode where the Ar+ ions have insufficient energy for excitation and the fast atoms are injected from a high-field region. These observations of 811-nm emission, plus previous measurements of steady-state spatial distributions of emission, are interpreted as demonstrating that excitation of the 811-nm lines is primarily by fast Ar atoms formed by charge transfer in Ar+-Ar collisions. For 750-nm emission the prompt portion is much larger and the delayed portion is much weaker than for 811-nm emission showing the importance of excitation by electrons even at these high E/n values. Steady-state observations of 811-nm emission when slow Ar+ ions are injected into a region of high electric field further confirm the model.

AB HEAT-shock proteins are normal constituents of cells whose synthesis is increased on exposure to various forms of stress. They are interesting because of their ubiquity and high conservation during evolution. Two families of heat-shock proteins, hsp60s and hsp70s, have been implicated in accelerating protein folding and oligomerization and also in maintaining proteins in an unfolded state, thus facilitating membrane transport 1-5. The Escherichia coli hsp70 analogue, DnaK, and two other heat-shock proteins, DnaJ and GrpE, are required for cell viability at high temperatures and are involved in DNA replication of phage-lambda and plasmids P1 and F 6-10. These three proteins are involved in replication in vitro of P1 DNA along with many host replication proteins and the P1 RepA initiator protein 11,12. RepA exists in a stable protein complex with DnaJ containing a dimer each of RepA and DnaJ 11. We report here that DnaK and DnaJ mediate an alteration in the P1 initiator protein, rendering it much more active for oriP1 DNA binding.

Cs initially forms long one-dimensional (1D) zigzag chains on both surfaces. Additional Cs adsorption on GaAs(110) results in the formation of a 2D overlayer consisting of five-atom Cs polygons arranged in a c(4 x 4) superlattice. The tunneling gap measured over these insulating structures narrows with the transition from 1D to 2D, with metallic characteristics observed following saturation with a second Cs overlayer.

AB The accuracy of the theory of the Josephson effect and of the quantum Hall effect is assessed by testing quantitatively the exactness of the theoretically predicted relations K(J) = 2e/h and R(K) = h/e2, where K(J) and R(K) are the phenomenological Josephson and von Klitzing constants, respectively. By assuming the relations are exact, quantum electrodynamics (QED) is tested by comparing QED-dependent and independent values of the fine-structure constant.

AB We present models of ultracompact H II regions as the bow shocks formed by massive stars, with strong stellar winds, moving supersonically through molecular clouds. The morphologies, sizes, and brightnesses of observed objects match our models well. We provide plausible models for the ultracompact H II regions G12.21-0.1, G29.96-0.02, G34.26 + 0.15, and G43.89-0.78. To do this we begin by calculating the equilibrium shape of the wind-blown shell, assuming momentum conservation. Then we illuminate the shell with ionizing radiation from the central star, perform radiative transfer for free-free emission through the shell, and visualize the resulting object at various angles for comparison with radio continuum maps. Our model unifies most of the observed morphologies of ultracompact H II regions, excluding only those objects with spherical shells. Ram pressure confinement greatly lengthens the life of ultracompact H II regions, explaining the large number that exist in the Galaxy despite their low apparent kinematic ages.

SO SCIENCE

DT Article
ID TUNNELLING MICROSCOPE; GAAS(110) SURFACE; DIRECTIONAL WALK
AB A general method of manipulating adsorbed atoms and molecules on room-temperature surfaces with the use of a scanning tunneling microscope is described. By applying an appropriate voltage pulse between the sample and probe tip, adsorbed atoms can be induced to diffuse into the region beneath the tip. The field-induced diffusion occurs preferentially toward the tip during the voltage pulse because of the local potential energy gradient arising from the interaction of the adsorbate dipole moment with the electric field gradient at the surface. Depending upon the surface and pulse parameters, cesium (Cs) structures from one nanometer to a few tens of nanometers across have been created in this way on the (110) surfaces of gallium arsenide (GaAs) and indium antimonide (InSb), including structures that do not naturally occur.

AB The antitumor antibiotic bleomycin degrades DNA in the presence of ferric ions and H2O2 or in the presence of ferric ions, oxygen, and ascorbic acid. When DNA degradation is measured as formation of base propenals by the thiobarbituric acid assay, it is not inhibited by superoxide dismutase and scavengers of the hydroxyl radical or by catalase (except that catalase inhibits in the bleomycin/ferric ion/H2O2 system by removing H2O2). Using the technique of gas chromatography/mass spectrometry with selected-ion monitoring, we show that DNA degradation is accompanied by formation of small amounts of modified DNA bases. The products formed are identical with those generated when hydroxyl radicals react with DNA bases. Base modification is significantly inhibited by catalase and partially inhibited by scavengers of the hydroxyl radical and by superoxide dismutase. We suggest that the bleomycin-oxo-iron ion complex that cleaves the DNA to form base propenals can decompose in a minor side reaction to generate hydroxyl radical, which accounts for the base modification in DNA. However, hydroxyl radical makes no detectable contribution to the base propenal formation.

AB Theoretical aspects of the scattering of cross-linked polymers were investigated with emphasis on the fact that the number of spatial neighbors for any given network is finite. A random-phase approximation scheme was used; however, the number of interactions among spatial neighbors was truncated to account for this finiteness. The result indicates that the expression based on infinite neighbors holds true in all the cases.

AB Advances in molecular beam epitaxy deposition techniques have recently made it possible to grow, an atomic plane at a time, single crystalline superlattices composed of alternating layers of a magnetic rare earth, such as Gd, Dy, Ho, or Er, and metallic Y, which has an identical chemical structure. The primary goal of this article is to review the new and interesting magnetic structures which have been discovered in these novel superlattice systems and to consider what implications the observed phases have on our understanding of the underlying microscopic magnetic interactions. In particular, the effects of the artificial periodicity or compositional modulation, finite layer thickness, and epitaxial strain on the resulting long range magnetic order of Gd-Y, Dy-Y, Ho-Y, Er-Y, and Gd-Dy superlattices are described.

A standardized procedure and a single strain of Thiobacillus ferrooxidans were used in this study. The mean rate of bioleaching of the pyrite reference material was 12.4 mg of Fe per liter per h, with a coefficient of variation (percent relative standard deviation) of 32% as determined by eight laboratories. These results show the precision among laboratories of the determination of rates of pyrite bioleaching when a standard test procedure and reference material are used.

AB We have performed numerical simulations of the effects of atmospheric seeing distortions on observations of solar oscillations of intermediate and high degree. The simulations involve a representation of about 100 p-modes of oscillation, with degrees l of 50 to 150 (intermediate-degree) and 150 to 450 (high-degree), formed from the complement of a sexated mode set. These modes are superposed on a steady large-scale convective background, and projected onto the plane of the sky. Image motion is modeled by displacement maps generated from two-dimensional turbulence power spectra; the maps are scaled so that the rms amplitude of the displacements has values of 2" to 5". The distorted velocity field is then Fourier analyzed to produce simulated (l, v) power diagrams, where v is the temporal cyclic frequency. The results show that power in the mode ridges is diminished as atmospheric seeing worsens, particularly at high degrees. Redistribution of power produces an apparent decrease in the frequencies of the oscillations as measured by the centroids of the ridges in the power spectra. We find that time-averaging the observations is quite effective in reducing the noise.

AB The importance of the El Nino-Southern Oscillation phenomenon in year-to-year fluctuations of the global climate has led to efforts to improve the real-time ocean observing system in the tropical Pacific. One element of this improved system is the TOGA-TAO (Tropical Atmosphere-Ocean) Array of wind and upper ocean thermistor chain moorings. This array, the result of an international effort, has already provided the rudiments of a basin-wide, real-time observing system and plans call for a major enhancement during the second half of the TOGA decade. The development of the TAO array is discussed, recent results from the pilot measurements are described, and plans for the expanded array are presented.

AB In the present work, hydrolysis reactions of sodium hexafluorosilicate (Na2SiF6) and sodium hexafluorostannate (Na2SnF6) were studied at various combinations of pH and calcium ion (Ca2+) concentrations using a quasi-constant composition titration method. Under high concentrations of hydrogen ion (H+) and Ca2+, the promoting effect of Ca2+ on the hydrolysis of Na2SiF6 was stronger than the inhibition effect of H+. However, the inhibition effect of H+ on the hydrolysis of Na2SnF6 was stronger than the promoting effect of Ca2+. Na2SiF6 and Na2SnF6 were found to have hydrolysis properties that may make them suitable for use with an acidic calcium phosphate solution in a topical fluoride treatment which forms dicalcium phosphate dihydrate as an intermediate.

AB A three-dimensional digital-image-based simulation model of cement hydration is used to study the percolation or connectivity of phases as a function of hydration. Results form an investigation of the effects of water-to-cement ratio, degree of hydration, and the substitution of inert and pozzolanic mineral admixtures for cement, on the connectivity of the capillary porosity are presented. For all scenarios studied, plotting pore connectivity vs. total porosity results in a single universal curve. Based on this curve, the degree of hydration required to achieve pore discontinuity as a function of water-to-cement ratio and pozzolanic mineral admixture concentration has been determined. Similar universal curves have been obtained for the connectivity of the calcium silicate hydrate and calcium hydroxide phases in hydrated neat cement when plotted against the appropriate phase fraction. Simulation results are analyzed using percolation theory, and are applied to interprting observed experimental results concerning cement properties as a function of hydration.

AB We determine the time interval, t(obs), required for effective ergodic convergence of the fluctuations in dipole moment which are needed for the computation of the dielectric properties of water. It is established that the value of t(obs) can be computed from the scaling relations obeyed by the fluctuation metric, OMEGA-mu(t), associated with the time-averaged values of the dipole moment of the individual water molecules. The theoretical ideas behind OMEGA-mu(t) are used to compute t(obs) at several temperatures for the simple point-charge model of water. It is found that t(obs) increases exponentially with decreasing temperature, the barrier being associated with the difficulty in making collective orientational rearrangements. For the simple point-charge model considered in this paper the barrier for these collective motions is estimated to be 3.5 kcal/mole. This study provides a firm basis for obtaining reliable values of the dielectric properties of dipolar fluids using molecular dynamics simulations.

AB The volume of Shelf Water (salinity < 34 psu) is determined for three regions in the Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) and for Georges Bank from a combination of hydrographic data and shelf/slope front positions derived from satellite imagery. The hydrographic data were obtained on 49 surveys of the shelf between 1977 and 1987. In each region the shelf water volume exhibits a significant annual cycle with a range of 50-80% of the mean volume. The annual volume cycle appears to be advected southwestward from Georges Bank through the MAB with the mean circulation. Large interannual changes in volume are observed which have a range comparable to the mean volume of Shelf Water in the MAB. Both the seasonal and interannual changes in volume appear to be related to changes in the inflow to the Gulf of Maine through Northeast Channel and from the Scotian Shelf.

AB During 1986-87, 26 satellite-tracked drifting buoys were deployed on the shelf in the northern Gulf of Alaska; nine of these buoys entered the Alaskan Stream. The buoy trajectories showed a well-formed, narrow, high-speed current. Southern deviations from the high-speed core were generally wind-induced. All but one of the drifters eventually went aground on one of the Aleutian Islands or entered the Bering Sea. Some meandering of the path of the Alaskan Stream was evident just west of Kodiak Island but was not apparent farther downstream.

AB Sediment trap fluxes of solids, organic carbon, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), and polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) were measured in Lake Superior in 1984 and 1985. Mass fluxes from surface waters ranged from 0.14 to 1.1 g/m2.day and increased near the lake floor due to resuspension of surficial sediment and horizontal transport in the benthic nepheloid layer. Organic matter fluxes from surface waters ranged from 60 to 90 mg of C/m2.day, with approximately 5% of organic carbon settling from surface waters accumulating in bottom sediments. Concentrations of PCBs and PAHs are enriched 10-100 times on settling particles relative to those on suspended particles. Resultant settling fluxes are 10-100 times greater for several PCB and PAH compounds than net accumulation rates in bottom sediments, indicating the effective and rapid recycling in the benthic region. Biological packaging of organic pollutants into rapidly settling particles is an efficient pathway for the transport of contaminants from surface waters to benthic regions of large lakes.

TI THE HURRICANE DILEMMA IN THE UNITED-STATES
SO EPISODES
LA English
DT Article
AB Tropical cyclones, known as hurricanes in the Atlantic and Eastern and Central North Pacific, typhoons in the Western North Pacific, and tropical cyclones elsewhere, are nature's most destructive phenomena. In the USA, hurricanes are categorized and damage is described according to the five categories of the Saffir-Simpson scale on the basis of wind velocity, storm surge, and property damage. Permanent populations of hurricane prone coastal communities are growing, and that coupled with increasing weekend, holiday, and seasonal populations puts large numbers of people at risk. It is increasingly difficult to evacuate these areas because highway development has not kept pace with the population increase. This serves as a strong impetus to develop accurate prediction and warning systems. The technology of modelling the interactions of wind, rain, and storm surge in relation to the topography and of comparing the models with the measured effects of actual hurricanes is improving the prediction and warning systems. However, the rate of forecast improvement continues to lag behind the need. The dilemma is to prevent the complacency caused by false alarms, yet still provide adequate warning times. (Ed.)

Diffusion coefficient values ranging from 1.10(-19) cm2/s to 5.10(-19) cm2/s have been obtained for annealing temperatures between 250-degrees-C and 300-degrees-C. These very low values confirm recent experiments of Shinar et al. and show that the motion of hydrogen atoms may be impeded by microstructures in amorphous silicon.

The dependence of the bakscattering cross section on the temperature can be referred to transitions of the HNO3/H2O system: it appears possible to distinguish the pure trihydrate from the mixed ice-trihydrate phase in the composition of the aerosol and, in some cases, to bracket the HNO3 and H2O content of the ambient gas, and to provide indications on the size of the particles.

AB In Galerkin's method, an orthogonal set of functions is used to convert a differential equation into a set of simultaneous linear equations. We choose the Hermite-Gauss functions as the set of orthogonal basis functions to solve the eigenvalue problem based on the two-dimensional scalar-wave equation subject to the radiation boundary conditions at infinity. The method gives an accurate prediction of modal propagation constant and of the field distribution. The method is tested by using the step-index optical fiber, which has a known exact solution, and the truncated parabolic profile fiber, for which trends are well known. We also test the method using square and elliptic core fibers. The method is found to agree with known results.

AB We have performed tunneling spectroscopy measurements on squeezable electron tunneling junctions using Bi-Sr-Ca-Cu-O, Y-Ba-Cu-O, and Nb electrodes in a variety of combinations. A Zero-bias conductance peak has been seen repeatedly in the current-voltage [I(V)] and the conductance-voltage [G(V)] characteristics. We present a model to explain this conductance peak in terms of quasi-particle tunneling, phase diffusion and a supercurrent. Two additional structures have been seen repeatedly in I(V) and G(V). One of these structures has the characteristics of an energy gap feature. The other structure, which can mimic the gap feature, is explained in terms of the switching to the voltage state of a grain boundary junction that is in series with the SET junction. The dependence of these features upon temperature and the force applied to the junction is examined.

AB A series of YBa2Cu3O7-delta films has been reactively sputtered on off-axis-cut MgO substrates. All the films were oriented with the c axis normal to the substrate regardless of substrate orientation, indicating that growth dynamics is a major factor influencing film orientation on non-lattice-matched substrates. As the substrate orientation is moved off the [100] direction the films showed a decrease in transition temperature and showed properties indicative of an increased density of weak links. The films grown on high-angle substrates showed better properties than the films grown on low-angle substrates. Films grown on (110) MgO were as good as films grown on (100) MgO.

ID MULTIFILAMENTARY SUPERCONDUCTORS
AB Switching voltages can occur in four-wire current transport measurements of sintered high-T(c) superconductors. These switching voltages are irreversible shifts in the voltage-current characteristic of the superconductor that result in multiple branches. The voltage along these branches can be very nonlinear as a function of current and can be positive or negative in polarity relative to the current direction. These voltages can interfere with the correct determination of resistivity and critical current density. Experimental data on unaligned sintered Y1Ba2Cu3O7-delta which illustrate the complex nature of the voltages and the confusion they can create are presented. Models based on weak links and H(c)1, and on other effects, are discussed as are observations on NbTi and Nb3Sn based superconductors.

AB We have recently demonstrated an imaging technique referred to as tunneling stabilized magnetic force microscopy or TSMFM. TSMFM is performed using a scanning tunneling microscope (STM) with a flexible, magnetic, tunneling tip in place of the usual rigid tunneling tip. TSMFM images are therefore combinations of topography and the magnetic forces between the tip and the sample. Room temperature TSMFM images of magnetic bit tracks on a hard disk have 100 nm resolution and are comparable to Bitter patterns made using a ferrofluid. We have built a low temperature STM with the hope of getting TSMFM images of the flux lattice in superconductors. Preliminary TSMFM images of a YBa2Cu3O(x) (YBCO) film (T(c) = 88 K) in a 50 mT field show that relatively large magnetic forces are acting on the flexible tip while scanning at 48 K.

ID CU-O SYSTEM
AB The effects of anneal time and cooling rate on the formation and texturing of superconducting Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 (BSCCO) films were investigated. Samples were prepared by sputter depositing amorphous BSCCO films, annealing them at 870-degrees-C in flowing 20%O2-80% Ar for 30, 60 or 180 minutes and then cooling them. Two cooling rates were investigated: a fast cool of 80-degrees-C/min and a slow cool of 9-degrees-C/min. It was observed that effective coupling between superconducting 2212 grains occurs when films exhibit a minimum amount of (00-iota) texturing. In addition, the nucleation and growth kinetics are significantly different for the isothermal and cooling regimes of thermal processing. Consequently, anneal time and cooling rate play distinct roles in the achievement of the appropriate texture and microstructure in the films: longer anneal times increase the volume fraction of the 2212 phase while slower cooling rates enhance grain growth and texturing.

AB Single phase Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8 bulk superconductor (T(c) congruent-to 82 K) has been grown by laser-heated float zone method. The samples are highly textured with the grains, typically 100 mu-m in diameter and 0.5 cm long, elongated along the crystal a-axis which is the preferred growth direction. Our X-ray analysis and transport measurements indicate that all three principle axes (a,b,c) are orientated from grain to grain. The upper limit of the misalignment between the grains is estimated to be less that 2 degrees from the measured anisotropy ratio. The critical current density for such highly textured polycrystalline samples is anisotropic and limited mainly by the weak links at the grain boundaries. The grain boundary effects will be discussed on the basis of the measured temperature and magnetic field dependence of the critical current.

AB The development of thin-film dielectrics compatible with the epitaxial growth of YBa2Cu3O7-delta (YBCO) is crucial to the fabrication of multilayer device and circuit structures. We have investigated the YBCO/SrTiO3(STO) system by fabricating YBCO/STO bilayers and simple YBCO/STO/YBCO crossover structures. The thin films were deposited in situ by pulsed laser deposition and analyzed using x-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The film interfaces were characterized by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) depth profiling. We have developed photolithographic and wet-etching processes for patterning the crossovers which are compatible with these materials. The crossover structures were characterized by resistance and insulator pinhole density as well as the superconducting properties of the patterned top and bottom YBCO electrodes (critical temperature, T(c) and critical current density, J(c)). Using SrTiO3 as the insulating layer, we have made crossovers with good isolation between layers( > 100 M OMEGA) and high J(c) even in the top electrode (J(c)(76 K) > 10(5) A/cm2).

AB We constructed a Hall probe magnetometer to measure the magnetization hysteresis loops of Superconducting Super Collider magnet cables. The instrument uses two Hall-effect field sensors to measure the applied field H and the magnetic induction B. Magnetization M is calculated from the difference of the two quantities. The Hall probes are centered coaxially in the bore of a superconducting solenoid with the B probe against the sample's broad surface. An alternative probe arrangement, in which M is measured directly, aligns the sample probe parallel to the field. We measured M as a function of H and field cycle rate both with and without a dc transport current. Flux creep as a function of current was measured from the dependence of ac loss on the cycling rate and from the decay of magnetization with time. Transport currents up to 20% of the critical current have minimal effect on magnetization and flux creep.

AB Magnetization as a function of transverse magnetic field and time was measured for short strands extracted from the centers and edges of five Nb-Ti Rutherford cables designed for use in Superconducting Super Collider dipole magnets. The multifilamentary strands all had 6-mu-m diameter filaments. Edge samples, which had severe mechanical deformation, showed small magnetic coupling losses at low fields, compared to no coupling losses for undeformed center strands. Sharp strand bends at cable edges decreases the interfilament spacing to the order of the coherence length in the normal matrix material which increases the effective filament diameter and hysteresis loss at low fields. Microscopic studies of the cables' cross sections confirmed smaller interfilament separations in these samples. Flux creep measurements, represented by the time dependence of magnetization, showed little difference between edge and center samples. This indicates that the proximity-coupled matrix in edge samples is not a significant source of flux creep.

AB Extremely sensitive far-infrared detectors suitable for both direct detection and heterodyne applications are possible based upon mu-m-sized thin films with thickness less than a superconducting penetration depth. The penetration depth of such a film, and therefore its inductance, varies with temperature and with quasiparticle population (described by an effective temperature T*), resulting in both bolometric and non-equilibrium "photoinductive" responses. Incident radiation is coupled into the small-area kinetic inductor by a lithographic antenna, and the resulting inductance changes are amplified and converted to a voltage signal by an integrated microstrip DC SQUID. The device is sensitive because, unlike junction-based devices with large capacitive reactances, the kinetic inductor is naturally well matched to the antenna impedance at the far-IR frequency (nu > 2-DELTA/h), and to the pre-amplifier (SQUID) impedance at microwave or video frequencies (nu << 2-DELTA/h). The best kinetic inductor materials are those with low electronic mean free path, large penetration depth, and high critical current density. Thus, common magnet alloys such as NbTi are the natural choice for liquid-He temperature operation. A detailed analysis predicts a (phonon-limited) NEP of 4x10(-17) W/square-root Hz for a bolometer with an iridium kinetic inductor operated at 0.1 K. A heterodyne noise temperature of 2250 K (single-sideband) at 3 THz, with 200 MHz bandwidth, is predicted for a Nb-Ti mixer with a operated at 4 K.

AB We are developing a bolometer based on a differential thermometer that senses temperature changes through changes in the kinetic inductance of a superconducting thin film. The temperature transducer is an inductance bridge patterned as an integrated circuit on a 1 cm2 Si substrate. Two inductors from opposite arms of the bridge are patterned on a 2 mm2 thermally isolated Si island which is supported by a 9-mu-m thick Si:B membrane. The bridge is excited with audio frequency current and the bridge imbalance is detected with a commercial DC SQUID amplifier. The bridge is balanced by applying power to the thermally isolated island. This thermometer is the sensor for a prototype radiometer that will provide an absolute measure of IR power. The radiometer, which is designed for a NEP of about 10(-11) W/square-root Hz, is intended to measure the spectrally dispersed power of a 300 K black body. This absolute radiometer is being developed for use at the Low Background Infrared (LBIR) Facility at NIST, Gaithersburg. The noise floor of the temperature transducer for the radiometer has been measured to be 0.7 pW for a 100 s integration time. This is approximately 150 times lower noise than that of the commercial absolute radiometer currently used at the LBIR Facility in Gaithersburg.

The SQUIDs are modulated with a common flux bias line and produce an output voltage swing of several millivolts across the array. The large output voltage will allow direct connection to room temperature electronics without the transformer coupling and resulting frequency limitations commonly associated with dc SQUID amplifiers. We have measured a bandwidth of dc to at least 175 MHz for a 100-SQUID array. The series array will be used as the output stage for a multistage integrated SQUID amplifier.

ID FREQUENCY NOISE-REDUCTION; SWITCH
AB Laser light pulsed onto a Nb microbridge drives it momentarily normal and changes the quantum flux state of a superconducting inductive loop. The flux state is measured by a SQUID coupled to the loop. With a Nd:YAG laser, vortices are never trapped in the microbridge; with a diode laser, vortices are sometimes trapped. The spatial distribution of the trapped flux was studied. The effect of the optical pulse fall time on the frequency of flux trapping was found to be unimportant from 200 ns to 8 ms. Noise spectrum analysis indicates that the laser diode is 5 to 25 times noisier than the Nd:YAG laser at the characteristic frequency of the loop. This noise is believed to be responsible for flux trapping in the microbridge.

AB The complexity of the Josephson-array voltage standard can be reduced by using lower-frequency microwaves to excite the junction array. For operation at reduced frequencies, the designs of the array must take into account the large size of the junctions, as well as the perturbing effect of the junction reactance on the distribution of microwave power. Such issues are especially important when durable, but low-capacitance, trilayer junctions are used in the array. These problems are minimized by a new design, in which the junction array is wound into a continuous spiral.

AB A conventional SIS mixer, which is pumped by a single frequency local oscillator (LO) functions as a phase-insensitive linear amplifier and may achieve a noise level near the "quantum limit" of one-half photon added noise per unit bandwidth. A phase sensitive linear amplifier may have less noise than this "quantum limit". We are attempting to beat the quantum noise limit with an SIS mixer by employing a two-LO technique which makes the mixer's gain dependent upon the phase of the incoming signal. We have experimentally demonstrated the phase sensitive gain of our two-LO mixer; the gain variation from maximum to minimum is more than 20 dB. We also present theoretical predictions of the noise of the two-LO mixer.

AB Rate constants for the retro-Diels-Alder dissociation of 1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine, to 1,3-butadiene and methanimine, have been measured over 650-1450 K. To cover this range, three separate techniques were used at three laboratories: laser schlieren and single pulse shock tube methods, and a comparative rate flow system technique. The derived rate constants are extrapolated to the high-pressure limit with an RRKM model parameterized to fit the falloff observed in the laser-schlieren measurements. The resulting high-pressure rate constants show a reduction in activation energy of about 10 kcal/mol, comparing the isoelectronic cyclohexene, but little change in A-factor. There is an apparent increase in activation energy of 4 kcal/mol over the temperature range of these experiments, which is just outside probable error. Such a rise in activation energy is in marked contrast to the drop usually seen in simple bond fission, and may reflect a change from a concerted to a stepwise, biradical mechanism at high temperatures.

AB New relative measurements of the viscosity of liquid toluene are reported for the temperature range 218 to 378 K. They supplement the existing data, which have been obtained mostly above 273.15 K. The relative accuracy of the results is estimated between - 1 and 1.38% at 218 K, narrowing to one of -0.74 and 1.12% at 378 K. The experimental data have been correlated well within these estimates by an empirical temperature function. A comparison with previous experimental and compiled or evaluated data includes references since 1894 and is the most comprehensive survey so far. The agreement with the present data is generally very good. There is a need for further measurements with instruments other than capillary viscometers and in the low-temperature range from the triple point (178.15 K) to 273.15 K.

LA English
DT Article
AB The effectiveness of carp pituitary extract (CPE) and luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analog 'a' (LHRHa) to stimulate English sole (Parophrys vetulus) to complete gonadal maturation was evaluated. This treatment was necessary because untreated ripe female English sole, which cannot be spawned within a few days of capture, will discontinue gonadal maturation. In the present study, fish captured at various stages of gonadal maturation were treated with either daily injections of CPE (1 mg/kg body weight) or injections of LHRHa (0.15 mg/kg body weight) every 4 days. The results were evaluated by comparison of measures of reproductive success (percent fertilization and percent normal larvae) between the treated fish and fish spawned immediately after capture. Both CPE and LHRHa induced gonadal maturation in laboratory-held English sole. The use of LHRHa for the induction of gonadal maturation in English sole, however, was preferred, because generally 1) a higher percentage of the LHRHa-treated fish spawned compared to the CPE-treated fish, 2) the percent fertilization and percent normal larvae were similar to fish spawned immediately after capture for all the stages of gonadal development examined, and 3) dose could be better controlled. The present results also supported previous findings suggesting that females contribute most of the variability to fertilization success but the results did not support the observation that egg buoyancy was related to egg viability.

SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED MECHANICS-TRANSACTIONS OF THE ASME

DT Article
AB Many oscillating systems in practice are subject to periodic, impulsive loads during their motion. For nonlinear systems traditional methods, such as the slowly varying parameter technique, have been used to study the response of such systems by "smearing" the effect of the impulse over one cycle of the oscillation. Unfortunately, in many instances this approach violates the basic assumption used in the application of the averaging technique, resulting in limited predictive capability. This paper presents a modification to the standard slowly varying parameter technique for nonlinear systems which addresses this problem by assuming a solution form which admits a discontinuity in velocity at the time the impulse is applied. Examples are given which outline the improvement in accuracy of the new technique.

MEASUREMENT BIAS AND RESOLUTION
SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED METEOROLOGY
LA English
DT Article
ID 2ND PHASE FACE-2; AREA; ACCURACY; GAUGE
AB This paper presents new methods of estimating the bias and the resolution of radar and raingage area average rainfall measurements over a defined area when both devices are employed simultaneously.
The bias of raingage measurements for various rainfall amount ranges is estimated from published data, and the bias for radar measurement is then determined through comparison with the raingage recordings. The resolution estimations are carried out using error variance analysis on corresponding sets of gage and radar observations. The assumptions underlying this technique demand a uniform terrain for rainfall measurements, a large sample of cases, and, for one of the analysis options, a high correlation between radar and gage rainfall measurements.
The procedure is illustrated using the gage and radar rainfall data from the second phase of the Florida Area Cumulus Experiment (FACE-2). The gage sampling error variance estimations for various rainfall amount categories using an empirical radar-derived method are examined by comparison with those of published studies using alternate methods and are found to be in general agreement. The FACE-2 gage network is found to provide more highly resolved rainfall measurements than the WSR-57 radar in moderate or heavy rainfall, but the radar exhibits the superior resolution in light rainfall if the radar rainfall adjustment used in FACE is not carried out. The radar rainfall adjustment appears to reduce radar measurement bias quite effectively, but the resolution is generally not improved and is degraded in below-median rainfall amounts.

AB Selection of instruments for coastal oceanographic measurements is difficult. Few people involved with coastal engineering have the experience to make informed decisions about which gage will work best under their particular circumstances. Consideration of a few general characteristics of gage types will help in the selection of the most appropriate gage for a data collection effort.

AB A physical/mathematical model which describes blistering resulting from the corrosion of coated metals containing defects exposed to electrolytes has been developed. The model is based on the two-dimensional diffusion of cations through some arbitrary medium. Cations migrating along the coating/metal interface from the defect to the cathodic sites are assumed to be responsible for the formation of highly water-soluble corrosion products, leading to blistering. Solutions of the model were expressed in terms of dimensionless parameters. Concentration profiles between the blister and defect and cation flux into the blister as functions of time, blister size, distance between the blister and defect, ion diffusivity, and potential gradient were calculated. The predictions were related to available experimental data in the literature on cation uptakes and blistering rates for coated steel panels exposed to metal chloride solutions.

AB The crystal packing interactions of two crystal forms of bovine Ribonuclease A are compared. One form, grown in 43% t-butanol at pH 5.3, has space group P2(1), one molecule in the asymmetric unit, a = 30.18 angstrom, b = 38.4 angstrom, c = 53.32 angstrom and beta = 105.85-degrees. The other crystal form is grown in 3M CsCl and acetate buffer at pH 5.1, has space group P2(1)2(1)2(1), two molecules in the asymmetric unit, a = 53.14 angstrom, b = 64.61 angstrom and c = 73.64 angstrom. An analysis of the crystal packing interactions, including solvent bridging, indicates that the high-alcohol crystal form of Ribonuclease A has a balance of hydrogen bonding, electrostatic and Van der Waals interactions. In contrast, the high-salt crystal packing forces are dominated by Van der Waals interactions, but at the dimer interface of the molecules in this crystal form the interactions have a large electrostatic component. The electrostatic interactions of the dimer may be due to a rearrangement in the charge-charge interactions at the active site, a direct result of the presence of the inhibitor, deoxythymidine, covalently bound to His 12.

ID CRYSTAL-GROWTH; PROTEIN CRYSTALS; NUCLEATION
AB Several methods of crystallization of biological macromolecules depend upon the transport of water through the vapor phase - a process that is sensitive to ambient conditions (temperature, relative humidity). Other methods depend on the transport of solute by diffusion or through a membrane. By regulating the solute concentration on the outside of a reverse-osmosis membrane it is possible to control the rate at which macromolecules and other solutes are concentrated inside a membrane-bound fluid. The effect of dewatering rate on lysozyme crystal quality and growth rate was assessed. A 3-fold increase in concentration over a 9 day period yielded tetragonal crystals 0.5 mm on a side with sharp edges and with ordering at least to 1.73 angstrom. Transparent crystals of triglycine sulfate were grown by osmotic dewatering; in this case crystal growth could be enhanced or reversed by manipulating the external solution.

AB The growth of bovine Ribonuclease A (RNase A) and bovine Pancreatic Trypsin Inhibitor crystals has been studied simultaneously aboard MASER 3, a sounding rocket, and in a ground reference unit. For crystallization to take place within the 7 min and 15 s of microgravity during the flight, both macro- and micro-seed techniques of supersaturated protein solutions were employed. It was found that the convection-free environment of the MASER 3 protein crystal growth apparatus produced more and larger crystals than the ground reference unit. The RNase A crystals grown in microgravity diffracted X-rays to 1.06 angstrom resolution, approximately 0.2 angstrom higher resolution than previously observed in terrestrially grown RNase A crystals. The refined structure based on these data contains new features not seen in the lower resolution structures.

AB Three structurally related substituted amino acids (N-compounds) were studied in a three-step dentin-bonding protocol. The first step of an acidic ferric oxalate solution and the third step of a surface-active comonomer were held constant throughout the study. In the second step, the amount of the N-compound-either N-phenylglycine (NPG), N-methyl-N-phenylglycine (NMNPG), or N-phenyl-beta-alanine (NPBA)-was varied in acetone from 0 mol/L through 5 x 10-1 mol/L in seven steps. At 1 x 10-3 mol/L for NPG and NMNPG, average bond strength values were 7.4 +/- 2.2 and 10.5 +/- 2.7 MPa. The highest bond strength value for NMNPG was at 1 x 10-2 mol/L, with 13.2 +/- 4.0 MPa. The highest value for NPG was at 1 x 10-1 mol/L, with a value of 11.8 +/- 2.5 MPa. The average bond strength for NPBA did not differ from zero across the entire range of concentrations. Molar efficiency was defined as the bond strength per mole of these applied N-compounds. For the two N-compounds that did provide adhesion to dentin, NPG and NMNPG, the average bond strengths rose, peaked, and fell as the amounts of applied N-compound were increased. The molar efficiency dropped off as the concentration of applied N-compound rose. The least operator-sensitive and most efficient N-compound, NMNPG, delivered a bond strength equivalent to that of NPG, with 10% of the applied NPG amount.

AB A sizable number of bench-scale fire toxicity tests have been proposed over the last two decades. To date, no test method has successfully passed through the standards bodies ISO, ASTM, or BSI. The reasons are varied, but a major concern has been that none of the methods were seen to adequately predict the behavior of real, large-scale building fires. Such validation efforts have been held back both due to a shortage of good quality data, and because agreement had not been reached on the criteria for successful validation. NIST has now completed a pilot project to address both of these issues. In this study, several criteria for validation have been put forth. An initial data set has been compared against these criteria, comprising 2 bench-scale methods, 3 test materials, and a single real-scale fire scenario. The project results indicate that the course being pursued is appropriate, and provide illustrative performance data for the two bench-scale methods. The present project was a pilot study; further validation data will have to come from additional test materials and additional real-scale fire scenarios being examined. As a result of these studies, a factor-of-3 agreement between bench-scale and real-scale results was established as both useful and practical.

AB The capacitive probe method for noncontact characterization and monitoring of dielectric materials is analyzed theoretically. An analytical method based upon the Hilbert transform technique and a numerical method using the finite element technique for calculating the potential distribution and change in admittance of the probe caused by presence of the dielectric material as a function of liftoff (distance between the probe plane and the surface of the dielectric material) are described. The two methods are compared with each other and their relative advantages discussed. The possibility of extracting useful information about the dielectric constant of the material from experimental data is also discussed in the light of the proposed theory.

AB In this paper, we propose that, depending on their height, ledges on cracks can be efficient sources of dislocations at loadings well below the critical loading for homogeneous emission. Detailed 3-D elastic calculations are presented supporting this proposition. There are two configurations for emission: one which blunts the crack, and one we call a jogging configuration. By our calculations, the blunting configuration should be the more efficient source; however, jogging dislocations are more frequently observed, experimentally. We find that the ledge is only a finite source of dislocations, in the sense that the ledge height decreases as the dislocations are emitted. The atomic configuration at the ledge is composed of finite lengths of real dislocations, which is the reason why such dislocations can be emitted easier than homogeneously produced dislocations. The stresses at the ledge tip produce a cloud of bound dislocations near the ledge, pinned at the ledge ends, so that the ledge crack configuration becomes delocalized. Delocalization of the pileup dislocations in the jogging direction may explain why the jogging dislocations are more frequently seen. Implications for dislocation free zones and ductile transitions are discussed.

AB A compact analytical instrument is described which allows microsamples to be extracted with supercritical fluids, and the extract preconcentrated and analyzed by capillary supercritical fluid chromatography in a single coupled unit. Thus, no off-line sample pretreatment is required, and the possibility of extraneous contamination is reduced. To achieve greater selectivity and sensitivity for selected species, three different detectors (UV absorption, flame ionization and electron capture) were all connected on-line. This analytical instrument configuration was established by upgrading a commercial capillary supercritical fluid chromatograph using regular chromatographic supplies. To illustrate the analytical utility of this hyphenated technique, an assortment of compounds that are not easily determined by traditional gas chromatographic or liquid chromatographic methods was selected: explosives, propellants, and related species. The instrumental design, as well as selected analytical conditions (sample pretreatment,extraction, preconcentration, separation, and detection) were investigated to improve selectivity and/or sensitivity. The determination of explosive residues on soil is described as an environmental analysis application of the system. Detection limits for some compounds are estimated to be as low as 100 pg. The firearm propellants were characterized through their extractable organic constituents, and the usefulness of such characterization in forensic investigations is discussed. Closely related to this issue is the analysis of the residue in expended cartridge cases. A chromatographic fingerprint was obtained from the propellant used in the ammunition. This fingerprint can be used under certain circumstances to correlate a specific batch of propellant with the residue left in a fired cartridge case.

AB The effect of optical irradiance on the linearity of a Si photodiode was studied. These results are compared for light modulated at 30 MHz and at dc as the optical irradiance was varied over a 9 decade range. We discuss how these results affect the use of this detector as a heterodyne receiver. As the optical irradiance varied from 10(-2) to 10(+3) mW/cm2, while maintaining constant total power, the photocurrent was constant to about 1%, but as the power density increased further, the photocurrent increased about 13%. At the highest densities that we could achieve, about 6 x 10(7) mW/cm2, there was only slight evidence of the onset of saturation. These results are of importance in our work to use optical heterodyne detection to measure filter transmittances over a wide dynamic range. The results provide guidelines for achieving maximum accuracy when using this particular diode as an optical heterodyne receiver.

AB The use of the electrostatic classification method for sizing monodisperse 0.1-mu-m polystyrene latex (PSL) spheres has been investigated experimentally. The objective was to determine the feasibility of using electrostatic classification as a standard method of particle sizing in the development of a 0.1-mu-m particle diameter Standard Reference Material (SRM). The mean particle diameter was calculated from a measurement of the mean electrical mobility of the PSL spheres as an aerosol using an electrostatic classifier. The performance of the classifier was investigated by measuring its transfer function, conducting a sensitivity analysis to verify the governing theoretical relationships, measuring the repeatability of particle sizing, and sizing NIST SRM 1691, 0.269-mu-m and NIST SRM 1690, 0.895-mu-m particles. Investigations of the aerosol generator's performance focused on the effect of impurities in the particle-suspending liquid on the resulting particle diameter.
The uncertainty in particle diameter determined by electrical mobility measurements is found to be -3.3% to +3.0%. The major sources of uncertainty include the flow measurement, the slip correction, and a dependence of particle size on the aerosol flow rate. It was found that the classifier could be calibrated to indicate the correct size to within 0.1% for both SRM particle sizes if the defined classification length is decreased by 1.9%.

AB A light scattering detector has been designed and constructed for use with gel permeation chromatographs. The detector measures light scattered from the eluting sample simultaneously at nine scattering angles, and is connected to a computer-controlled display which exhibits the angular dependence of the scattering in real time while the sample is eluting. Use of the light-scattering detector in conjunction with the usual concentration-sensitive detector allows the direct determination of molecular weight as a function of elution volume, thereby making the chromatographic system "self-calibrating." Tests of the system with a series of linear and branched polystyrenes suggest that it will be a useful tool for the study and characterization of branched polymers.

AB An absolute determination of aqueous electrolytic conductivity has been made for 0.01 molal (m) and 0.1 m potassium chloride solutions, over the temperature range of 0 to 50-degrees-C in 5 degree intervals. A cell with a removable center section of accurately known length and area was used for the measurements. Values were adjusted to be in conformity with the ITS-90 temperature scale. The overall uncertainty over the entire temperature range is estimated to be 0.03%. Values at 25-degrees-C for 0.01 and 0.1 m are 0.00140823 and 0.0128246 S/cm, respectively. It is proposed that these values be adopted as primary standards for aqueous electrolytic conductivity, replacing the demal scale.

AB This study investigated the feasibility of using a digital image analysis system to process the information contained in microradiographs of tooth sections that included dental caries lesions. The results show that by using an aluminum step wedge to provide a range of thickness standards and a sound area of the sample as an internal reference, data on tooth mineral content as a function of the location can be obtained with an estimated error of less than 5% relative to the mineral content of sound area. This microradiographic technique allows the response of tooth samples to a remineralization treatment to be quantitatively measured and statistically analyzed.

AB A microwave-assisted method for preparing samples for determination of elements in solid waste has been developed (draft EPA Method 3051). Validation of the sample preparation method was performed through a collaborative study to determine its precision and accuracy. Fifteen independent laboratories digested 4 National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) standard reference materials (SRMs) and 1 solvent recovery waste in duplicate. Digestates were analyzed for 19 elements using inductively coupled plasma (ICP) emission spectroscopy. The precision and bias of the method were evaluated. When compared with an open vessel hot-plate digestion method (SW-846 Method 3050), the microwave method produced similar analytical results with better overall precision. Bias for the 1 sample that allowed this determination was found to be excellent.

AB Tropospheric zonal mean eddy fluxes of heat and momentum, and the divergence of the Eliassen-Palm flux, are decomposed into contributions from different zonal phase speeds. Data analyzed are ECMWF operational global analyses covering 1980-87. Eastward moving medium-scale waves (zonal waves 4-7) dominate the spectra of lower tropospheric heat fluxes in both hemispheres and all seasons. Upper tropospheric wave flux spectra are similar to the low level spectra in midlatitudes, but shift to slower zonal phase speeds as low latitudes are approached. The cause of this shift is the selective absorption of faster moving components in midlatitudes as the waves propagate meridionally. Latitude-phase speed distributions of eddy fluxes are constructed and compared to the zonal mean wind structure. These results demonstrate that upper tropospheric eddies break and decelerate the zonal mean flow approximately 10-degrees-20-degrees in latitude away from their critical line (where phase speed equals zonal wind speed). Comparisons are also made with results from the middle stratosphere.

A total of 46 new lines with wavelengths ranging from 115 to 696 angstrom were identified: 18 of the type 3d10nl-3d10nl', 10 of the type 3d10(4)s-3d9(4)s4p, and 18 of the type 3d10(4)p-3d9(4)p2. From these lines 37 new energy levels were determined: 14 of the type 3d10nl, 10 belonging to 3d9(4)s4p, and 13 to 3d9(4)p2. New values for all known levels were derived by combining the present results with measurements at longer wavelength by Gallardo et al. [Appl. Opt. 28, 5088 (1989)]. The ionization energy was found to be 1014 665 +/- 25 cm-1 (125.802 +/- 0.003 eV). New wavelength measurements were made for the 3d10-3d9(4)p,4f resonance lines of the nickellike ion Kr IX.

AB A report of work in progress to determine the feasibility of imaging the magnetization of ferromagnetic samples with the scanning tunneling microscope (STM) is presented. A vacuum system was designed to test several different proposals as well as to prepare and characterize thin films of magnetic materials by conventional means, including STM. This was begun with an attempt to detect spatially resolved spin-polarization of secondary electrons emitted from the sample when operating the STM in the scanning field emission mode. Results are currently inconclusive, but encouraging. A weak spin-polarization signal has been observed corresponding to one of the in-plane components of magnetization. However, topographic feedthrough has not been fully eliminated as a possible spurious source of contrast.

AB Scanning tunneling microscopy has been employed to study clean and Cs-covered InSb(110) surfaces. Atomic-resolution images of both the filled and empty electronic state densities have been obtained. The surface relaxation determined from these images is in good agreement with that predicted by structure calculations. A variety of surface defects have been observed, with the most common appearing to be simple Sb vacancies. Adjacent In and Sb vacancies (Schottky defects) have also been observed. The perturbation of the surface surrounding these defects is asymmetrical along [001], as might be expected due to the asymmetry in the surface. Surprisingly, the perturbation is also asymmetrical along [11BAR0], where symmetry is expected. Cs adsorbed on room-temperature InSb(110) forms one-dimensional zig-zag chains along [11BAR0], similar to those previously observed on GaAs(110).

AB Recent results employing scanning tunneling microscope-based techniques for the generation of nanometer-scale patterns on passivated semiconductor surfaces are presented. Preparation and characterization of hydrogen-passivated silicon and sulfur-passivated gallium arsenide surfaces are described and the determination of the chemical and morphological properties of the patterned regions by scanning electron microscopy and time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry are discussed. Our recent demonstration that ultrashallow, oxide features written by scanning tunneling microscope (STM) can serve as an effective mask for selective-area GaAs heteroepitaxy on silicon is used to illustrate key requirements necessary for the realization of a unique, STM-based nanotechnology.

AB Single Synechococcus cells accounted for an average of 10% (range 1-26%) of surface mixed-layer primary production in Lakes Huron and Michigan in 1986-1988. Maximal photosynthetic rates (P(max)) were relatively low (range = 1.9-6.0 fg C cell-1 h-1) and no significant photoinhibition was found at irradiances as high as 3.0 Einst m-2 h-1. Synechococcus growth rates estimated by four techniques (ampicillin, C-14 uptake, dilution, and small inocula) ranged from 0.1 to 0.9 d-1 with a mean of 0.37. Although substantial variability was noted among techniques on any one date, on average all estimates were in reasonable agreement with the exception of the dilution estimates which were significantly lower (P < 0.01). Three techniques for estimating grazing loss rates (ampicillin, dilution, and C-14-labeling of Synechococcus) provided similar estimates ranging from 0.1 to 0.7 d-1. On specific dates, grazing loss rates were 33-120% of growth rates, suggesting that grazing was the major loss for Synechococcus populations in these lakes. Most of the grazing loss (68%) was attributable to small (4-10-mu-m), heterotrophic flagellates and ciliates. Crustaceans and rotifers accounted for only a small percentage of total grazing loss (5-21%) even when Daphnia accounted for 40% of crustacean biomass.

AB In the treatment of some head and neck lesions with high-intensity radiation (teletherapy), an essential procedure is the application of an individually customized shielding appliance, which is designed, modeled, and formed into a working extra- or intraoral stent for the purpose of sparing healthy tissues. The present state of the art is slow and technique intensive, which can add to patient discomfort and inconvenience during molding and fabrication. A new formulation is described, which offers speed and ease of forming a moldable composite stent especially for intraoral use. Interleaved stacks of calibrated thin radiochromic film strips and soft-tissue-simulating plastic (polystyrene) layers gave a means of mapping one- or two-dimensional profiles of dose distributions adjacent to the high-density shielding materials using a spectrophotometer equipped with a gel scanner or a scanning laser-beam microdensitometer. Tests using collimated gamma-ray beams from a Co-60 teletherapy unit were made in order to measure the dose distribution near interfaces of tissue-simulating polymer and the composite stent material with and without mixtures of metals (Ag-Cu and Sn-Sb). These results show that quickly formed composites made of a flexible resin with high concentrations of powdered spherical metal alloys provide effective custom-designed shielding, and, with a thin overlayer of the resin without metal, a diminished back-scattered radiation dose to normal tissues. An example of a successful formulation is a mixture of 90% by weight Ag-Cu alloy powder in a vinyl polysiloxane resin. This material is a moldable putty which, upon polymerization, forms a rigid elastomeric material, providing a half-value layer of almost-equal-to 2.5 to 2.8 cm for a gamma-ray beam from a Co-60 source.

AB Measurements are carried out to determine the relative photographic effect produced by electrons emanating from metallic screens on a typical radiographic film. The electrons are produced in metal foils of aluminum, copper, and lead by the interaction of photons in a 400-kV bremsstrahlung beam. Intensification factors of up to 1.65, 2.05, and 5.90 for aluminum, copper, and lead screens, respectively, are determined as a function of the foil thickness. The equilibrium thickness screens are determined to be 20 mg/cm2 for aluminum and 30 mg/cm2 for copper and lead. These results are compared with the absorbed dose in the film emulsions, calculated by Monte Carlo methods. The results of the present work are compared with those for Co-60 and Cs-137 photon beams. The dependence of the equilibrium thickness and the intensification factor on photon energy and the atomic number of the screen material is summarized and explained.

AB Corresponding-states theories fail to predict the large difference observed between n-butane and isobutane viscosities at similar reduced conditions. To investigate the molecular cause of these structural effects upon viscosity, non-equilibrium molecular dynamics simulations of Lennard-Jones site-site models representing n-butane and isobutane are performed over much of the density range for which experimental data are available. Simulated viscosities at zero shear agree very well with experimental data over the entire density range. Site size, non-equilibrium molecular alignment and molecular geometry are the primary factors causing both the similarities and differences between the isomers' viscosity and rheology.

TI SENSITIVITY STUDIES OF TROPICAL STORM GENESIS USING A NUMERICAL-MODEL
SO MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW
LA English
DT Article
ID SEA-SURFACE TEMPERATURE
AB This study investigates two cases of the FGGE III-B tropical cyclone genesis study of Tuleya (1988) in more detail. These two cases occurred within a week of one another in the tropical North Atlantic in August 1979. One disturbance developed into Hurricane David, the other did not develop past the depression stage. At one point in their evolution the disturbances had quite similar values of low-level vorticity. In the developing case of Hurricane David, the disturbance propagated along in a low-level wave trough with an accompanying high wind maximum. In the nondeveloping case the initial disturbance was also embedded in a wave trough with an associated wind maximum. This low-level wave propagated westward leaving the depression in its wake. The different environmental flow was responsible for the different behavior. Synoptic and budget analyses revealed significant differences in disturbance structure and vorticity and equivalent potential temperature tendencies at the time of approximate equal strength of the two disturbances. The evolution of these two disturbances was quite robust even to reasonable increases to the initial relative humidity.
Supplementary experiments of the developing case were performed by altering the sea surface temperature and surface evaporation. It was found that the difference in storm evolution was minor in a case when climatological mean values of sea surface temperatures were specified. The climatological mean values were approximately 0.5 K lower than the August 1979 mean used in the control simulation. In addition, an experiment without evaporation led to a propagating easterly wave with little development. Furthermore, when the evaporation was specified to a climatological constant value, there was intensification into a weak tropical storm with a rather peculiar structure. Apparently, at least in this case, processes other than evaporation-wind feedback led to moderate storm intensification.

TI USE OF 4-DIMENSIONAL DATA ASSIMILATION IN A LIMITED-AREA MESOSCALE MODEL
PART .2. EFFECTS OF DATA ASSIMILATION WITHIN THE PLANETARY

SO MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW

ID NUMERICAL WEATHER PREDICTION; INITIALIZATION; IMPACT; SCHEME
AB A four-dimensional data assimilation (FDDA) scheme based on Newtonian relaxation or nudging has been developed and evaluated in the Pennsylvania State University/National Center for Atmospheric Research (PSU/NCAR) Limited-Area Mesoscale Model. It was shown in Part I of this study that continuous assimilation of standard-resolution rawinsonde observations throughout a model integration, rather than at only the initial time, can successfully limit large-scale model error growth (amplitude and phase errors) while the model maintains intervariable consistency and generates realistic mesoscale structures not resolved by the data. The purpose of this paper is to further refine the previously reported FDDA strategy used to produce "dynamic analyses" of the atmosphere by investigating the effects of data assimilation within the planetary boundary layer (PBL).
The data used for assimilation include conventional synoptic-scale rawinsonde data and mesoalpha-scale surface data. The main objective of this study is to determine how to effectively utilize the combined strength of these two simple data systems while avoiding their individual weaknesses. Ten experiments, which use a 15-layer version of the model, are evaluated for two midlatitude, real-data cases.
It is found that the homogenizing effect of vertical mixing during free convective conditions allows the three-hourly surface-layer wind and mixing ratio observations to be applied throughout the model PBL according to an idealized conceptual model of boundary-layer structure. Single-level surface temperature observations, however, are often poorly representative of the boundary layer as a whole (e.g., shallow superadiabatic layers, nocturnal inversions), and are more attractive for FDDA applications when additional vertical profile information is available. Assimilation of surface wind and moisture data throughout the model PBL generally showed a positive impact on the simulated precipitation by better resolving the low-level structure and movement of systems (e.g., cyclones, fronts) during the 12-h periods bracketed by the standard rawinsonde data. Improved precipitation simulations due to assimilation of surface data are also possible even in cases with weak large-scale forcing, because a significant portion of the vertically integrated moisture convergence often occurs in the boundary layer. Overall, the best dynamic analyses of precipitation, PBL depth, surface-layer temperature, and tropospheric mass and wind fields were obtained by nudging to analyses of rawinsonde wind, temperature, and moisture above the model PBL and to analyses of surface-layer wind and moisture within the model PBL.

AB On 10 October 1983 the two NOAA WP-3D aircraft completed a mission designed to provide airborne Doppler radar data for a convective cell embedded in a weak rainband on the trailing side of Hurricane Raymond. Comparisons of the wind field produced from the pseudo-dual-Doppler radar technique with in situ wind measurements suggest that the larger convective-scale features may be resolved if the sampling time is kept to a minimum. The convective cell was found to move downband faster than any environmental winds but slightly slower than the winds found in the reflectivity core that delineates the cell. In the core of the cell the tangential wind is increased and the radial inflow turns to outflow with respect to the circulation center. The flow field demonstrates that the downband stratiform portion of a rainband is not from cells currently active since the updraft detrains upwind relative to the cell but rather it is due to the fallout from ice particles placed into the upper troposphere by clouds that have since dissipated. The mass flux of this cell is estimated to be 5%-10% of the mass flux accomplished by an eyewall of a moderate tropical cyclone. This finding supports the concept that large, convectively active rainbands have a major effect on the subcloud layer air flowing toward the eyewall.

ID MOTION
AB Data from a numerical simulation of a moving barotropic vortex on a sphere with 10-km resolution are used to assess the ability of a state-of-the-art objective analysis scheme to detect certain large-scale tropical cyclone asymmetries, the so-called "beta gyres" to which the cyclone motion appears to be attributed.
A series of analyses is conducted, first using the entire dataset and then taking subsets of it. Four subsets were considered in which data at a regular array of points were extracted, progressively increasing the separation between points. A fifth calculation was considered in which data were selected at points corresponding to the proposed upgraded upper-air network for a tropical cyclone motion experiment in the northwest Pacific region.
It is shown that for a moderate-sized tropical cyclone-scale vortex, a regular grid spacing on the order of 100-150 km is required to adequately define the gyres, at least when the ambient flow is weak. The upgraded upper-air network was found to be inadequate by itself for this purpose, suggesting that aircraft dropwindsonde data are a prerequisite for this task.

AB Vertically curved monochromator crystals are commonly used to increase the intensity on the sample in thermal neutron scattering applications. Such devices are found on spectrometers installed both at nonreflecting beam tubes and at totally reflecting guide tubes. We present an analysis of the performance of vertically curved monochromators located at instruments of both types. The acceptance diagram approach gives considerable insight into the behaviour of vertically curved monochromators. The analysis can be extended to more complicated systems, which closely represent what is actually found at a neutron scattering installation.

AB Delayed neutron choppers in pulsed source neutron beams serve to reduce the background caused by delayed neutrons in pulsed source instruments. We analyze the effect of a drum chopper placed in an incident pulsed beam which contains delayed neutrons and compute its influenced on the detector counting rate. Expressions are found for the time and wavelength dependence of the counting rates for both prompt and delayed neutrons, in both the monitor and the scattered neutron detectors. On the basis of these results, an exact method for determining the delayed neutron background is suggested for use in measuring and correcting pulsed-source diffractometer data, by operating the chopper in random phase with respect to the source. Other approximate methods are investigated. We report measurements which confirm the analysis.

LA English
DT Article
AB Drum choppers have been placed in the incident beams of the pulsed source instruments at IPNS (Intense Pulsed Neutron Source) in order to reduce the background resulting from delayed neutrons from the booster target. Expressions are derived for the detailed pulse shape of the transmitted neutrons and for the duration of the chopper pulse. The transmission probability depends on the neutron wavelength, the frequency of rotation of the chopper, the chopper diameter and slot width, and the incident neutron beam width. These expressions are used to compute the transmission probabilities of time-of-flight diffractometers on pulsed neutron sources which employ drum choppers. They can also be used to determine the time and wavelength dependence of the counting rates for both prompt and delayed neutrons.

AB The following energy-transfer reactions have been observed in a Sr vapor following pulsed excitation of the 5 1P1 state: Sr*(5 1P1)+Sr*(5 1P1)-->Sr(5 1S0)+Sr**(n2S+1L)-DELTA-E, Sr*(4 1D2) +Sr*(4 1D2)-->Sr(5 1S0)+Sr**(n2S+1L)-DELTA-E. The 4 1D2 state was populated by a nonlinear stimulated process. By measuring the rate coefficients for these reactions for over 40 final states n2S+1L, we look for insight into how these reactions depend on energy defect, spin, and angular momentum. It is found that there is not a very strong dependence on the energy defect, and that singlet and triplet final states are produced in comparable amounts. The final states tend to be populated more effectively as their angular momentum increases. Total rate coefficients are of the order of gas-kinetic rates.

AB A new technique sensitive to molecular orientation and geometry, and based on measuring the polarization of x-ray emission, has been applied to the Cl-containing molecules methyl chloride (CH3Cl) and the chlorofluoromethanes (CF3Cl, CF2Cl2, and CFCl3) in the gas phase. Upon selective excitation using monochromatic synchrotron radiation in the Cl K-edge (Cl ls) near-threshold region, polarization-selective x-ray emission studies reveal highly polarized molecular valence x-ray fluorescence for all four molecules. The degree and the orientation of the polarized emission are observed to be sensitive to the incident excitation energy near the Cl K edge. In some cases, the polarization direction for x-ray emission reverses for small changes in incident excitation energy (a few eV). It is shown that the polarized x-ray emission technique can be used to infer, directly from experiment, symmetries of occupied and unoccupied valence molecular orbitals, anisotropies in absorption and emission, and orientational and geometrical information. It is suggested that the x-ray polarized-fluorescence phenomenon, reported here for simple molecules, can be used as a new approach to study more complicated systems in a variety of environments.

AB The spectrum of four-times ionized cerium Ce V has been observed with a sliding-spark discharge and a 10.7-m normal-incidence vacuum spectrograph. A total of 107 lines have been classified as transitions between 51 energy levels. All levels of the 5p6, 5p(5)4f, 5p(5)5d, 5p(5)6s, 5p(5)6p, and 5p(5)6d configurations have been determined. Because of collapse of the 4f shell, the 5p(5)4f configuration is situated well below 5p(5)5d. Ab initio calculations and least-squares fits of the energy parameters to the experimental energy levels are reported. The ionization energy is revised to 527 100 +/- 2000 cm-1 (65.35 +/- 0.25 eV).

ID MAGNETIC-PROPERTIES; SUPERCONDUCTOR
AB The magnetic behavior of single crystals and powders of BiPbSr2MnO6 and BiPbCa2MnO6 has been measured between 300 and 4 K. These analogues of the high-temperature superconducting bismuth cuprates have no structural modulation, and consequently do not have the sharp peak in magnetization found in modulated Bi2Sr2MnO6+delta. Instead, their magnetic behavior is consistent with antiferromagnetism (below transition temperatures near 150 K in crystals and 200 K in powders) with the spins mainly oriented normal to the MnO2 planes, as confirmed by neutron diffraction. They also show weak ferromagnetism, with a remanent moment in the MnO2 planes; this is interpreted as small canting (less than 0.1-degrees) of the spins toward the MnO2 planes.

AB A new triple correlation technique for measuring the complete intensity profile of ultrashort optical pulses is described. The triple correlation preserves the phase information of the input pulse so that a reconstruction of the triply correlated signal will provide a unique reconstruction of the input. The new technique described here uses two second-order, nonlinear optical interactions for the generation of a triply correlated signal. A derivation of the measured triple-correlation signal and the pulse reconstruction is given. The effects of noise on the measured signal are also examined.

Its key elements are a piezoelectric translator for applying controlled displacements to the loading points on the specimen and a load cell to measure applied loads. The effective transmission of displacement from the piezoelectric driver to the specimen was found to be the major mechanical design problem. The peripheral equipment includes a function generator and a high voltage amplifier that drives the piezoelectric translator as well as a video overlay and standard video equipment to record the image continuosuly during the course of the experiment. A case study on alumina describes qualitative observations on the toughening mechanism, crack-interface bridging, operating in this material. Quantitative information pertaining to the closure stresses associated with this toughening mode can be obtained by measuring the crack profile.

ID TIME-SERIES; DROUGHT
AB Climate models with enhanced greenhouse gas concentrations have projected temperature increases of 2-degrees to 4-degrees-C, winter precipitation increases of up to 15 percent, and summer precipitation decreases of 5 to 10 percent in the central United States by the year 2030. An analysis of the climate record over the past 95 years for this region was undertaken in order to evaluate these projections. Results indicate that temperature has increased and precipitation decreased both during winter and summer, and that the ratio of winter-to-summer precipitation has decreased. The signs of some trends are consistent with the projections whereas others are not, but none of the changes is statistically significant except for maximum and minimum temperatures, which were not among the parameters predicted by the models. Statistical models indicate that the greenhouse winter and summer precipitation signal could have been masked by natural climate variability, whereas the increase in the ratio of winter-to-summer precipitation and the higher rates of temperature change probably should have already been detected. If the models are correct it will likely take at least another 40 years before statistically significant precipitation changes are detected and another decade or two to detect the projected changes of temperature.

AB Over 100 years ago, macro-scale analytical techniques were used to discover the roles of special compounds (especially of metallic elements) in living organisms, and investigations were focussed on selected proteins and pigments suspected of containing percentage quantities of metals. In contrast, present-day analytical techniques are capable of detecting extremely small quantities and have become routine ultra-trace measurement tools to probe elemental interactions at cellular levels. The scientific achievements connecting these two boundaries are punctuated with an array of analytical developments; some highlighting the phenomenal advances in the measurement technology and others reflecting the exceptional bioanalytical perception and the multi-disciplinary outlook of trace element investigators. An account of the events that contributed to the overall progress in biological trace element research is the essence of this communication.

AB Algorithms for the solution of symmetric diagonally dominant tridiagonal systems of linear equations with constant diagonals are considered. Such systems occur, for example, when solving certain constant-coefficient elliptic partial differential equations by the Fourier method. In particular, the specialized LU factorization method of Malcolm and Palmer (SpLU), the cyclic reduction method of Hockney (CR), and the reversed triangular factorization method of Evans (RTF) are considered. An interesting property of the first two algorithms is that they may be terminated early for highly diagonally dominant systems. A new implementation of RTF that also has this property is presented, significantly reducing its operation count in many cases. The slightly perturbed systems that arise from problems with Neumann or periodic boundary conditions are also considered, with extensions given for SpLU to the periodic case and RTF to the Neumann case. Floating-point operation counts are given for each method, and the results of experiments on a single scalar processor are reported.

TI A REFINEMENT OF THE COMBINATION EQUATIONS FOR EVAPORATION
SO SURVEYS IN GEOPHYSICS
LA English
DT Review
AB Most combination equations for evaporation rely on a linear expansion of the saturation vapor-pressure curve around the air temperature. Because the temperature at the surface may differ from this temperature by several degrees, and because the saturation vapor-pressure curve is nonlinear, this approximation leads to a certain degree of error in those evaporation equations. It is possible, however, to introduce higher-order polynomial approximations for the saturation vapor-pressure curve and to derive a family of explicit equations for evaporation, having any desired degree of accuracy. Under the linear approximation, the new family of equations for evaporation reduces, in particular cases, to the combination equations of H. L. Penman (Natural evaporation from open water, bare soil and grass, Proc. R. Soc. London, Ser. A 193, 120-145, 1948) and of subsequent workers. Comparison of the linear and quadratic approximations leads to a simple approximate expression for the error associated with the linear case. Equations based on the conventional linear approximation consistently underestimate evaporation, sometimes by a substantial amount.

AB A combined finite element and Lamb wave modal expansion method is presented here for analysing scattering of time harmonic Lamb waves by material and geometric irregularities in an isotropic linearly elastic infinite plate. All the irregularities are assumed to be contained in a bounded region. The method is to replace this region with a finite element mesh. A nodal force-displacement relation is developed to satisfy the continuity conditions along the artificial boundaries separating the inner finite element region from the exterior regular region. The method is illustrated by solving the problem of scattering of Lamb waves by a normal transversely anisotropic weldment. The reflection and transmission coefficients are computed for the first antisymmetric and symmetric incident modes. The validity and accuracy of the results are checked by satisfaction of the energy conservation principle.

TI CORRELATING LIGHTNING TO SEVERE LOCAL STORMS IN THE NORTHEASTERN
UNITED-STATES
SO WEATHER AND FORECASTING
LA English
DT Article
AB Two tornado events and an intense downburst episode were investigated in an attempt to relate cloud-to-ground lightning rates with the occurrence of severe local storms. The State University of New York at Albany lightning detection system was used to yield characteristic lightning rate tendencies and particular lightning signatures that were associated with severe storms in the northeastern United States.
Tornadoes and large hail occurred about 10-15 min after a pronounced peak in the 5-min cloud-to-ground lightning rate. In the downburst event, very destructive winds occurred just after the 5-min rate peaked. Because these severe local storm activities followed well-defined peaks in the 5-min cloud-to-ground lightning rate, it may be possible that the 5-min rates could be used operationally to forecast severe weather.

TI ON THE INTERPRETATION OF SINGLE-DOPPLER VELOCITY PATTERNS WITHIN SEVERE
THUNDERSTORMS
SO WEATHER AND FORECASTING
LA English
DT Article
AB Although the flow field within a severe thunderstorm is complex, it is possible to simulate the basic features using simple analytical flow models (such as uniform flow, axisymmetric rotation, axisymmetric divergence). Combinations of such flow models are used to produce simulated Doppler velocity patterns that can be used as "signatures" for identifying quasi-horizontal flow features within severe thunderstorms. Some of these flow features are: convergence in the lower portions of a storm and divergence in the upper portions associated with a strong updraft, surface divergence associated with a wet or dry downdraft, mesocyclone (rotating updraft), flow around an updraft obstacle, and tornado. Recognition of the associated Doppler velocity patterns can aid in the interpretation of single-Doppler radar measurements that include only the radial component of flow in the radar viewing direction.

TI SURFACE WIND CONVERGENCE AS A SHORT-TERM PREDICTOR OF CLOUD-TO-GROUND
LIGHTNING AT KENNEDY-SPACE-CENTER
SO WEATHER AND FORECASTING
LA English
DT Article
AB Cloud-to-ground lightning is a significant forecast problem at the Kennedy Space Center (KSC) in Florida. In this study, cloud-to-ground lightning is related in time and space to surface convergence for 244 days during the convective seasons of 1985 and 1986 over a 790-km2 network at KSC. The method uses surface convergence, particularly the average over the area, to identify the potential for new, local thunderstorm growth, and it can be used to specify the likely time and location of lightning during the life cycle of the convection. A threshold of 75 x 10(-6) S-1 change in divergence is the main criterion used to define a convergence event, and a set of flashes less than 30 min apart defines a lightning event. Time intervals are found from the study to be approximately 1 h from beginning convergence to first flash, and another hour to the end of lightning. The influences of low-level winds and midlevel moisture in determining the location and intensity of convection are discussed. This is the first known dynamically-based forecast method for lightning prediction. The technique, currently in use at KSC, has been shown to be a systematic, quantitative tool for predicting lightning onset in situations where conventional analysis tool such as radar and satellite are limited.

TI EVALUATION OF VERTICAL MOTION - PAST, PRESENT, AND FUTURE
SO WEATHER AND FORECASTING
LA English
DT Article
AB The potential impact of gridded output from numerical models on operational forecasting of vertical motion is examined. A review of historical techniques for operational vertical motion evaluation is presented. An attempt is made to relate previous methods with current operational techniques, and to contrast these with techniques that could be applied operationally via the use of gridded model output. This paper makes the point that most of the current operational practices for the estimation of vertical motion and the general interpretation of numerical model output are based on techniques that were originally used to create surface and upper air prognoses manually in the pre-NWP era, and are no longer appropriate or optimal. Unfortunately the tools available to operational forecasters are also a remnant of this same era. Gridded data from numerical models have the potential to greatly change operational methods of vertical motion estimation and general interpretation of numerical models.

TI EVALUATING THE IMPACT OF RAFS CHANGES ON THE NGM-BASED MOS GUIDANCE
SO WEATHER AND FORECASTING
LA English
DT Note
AB In the spring of 1990, the National Meteorological Center (NMC) tested several modifications to the Regional Analysis and Forecast System (RAFS). In order to compare the proposed version of the RAFS to the current operational RAFS, NMC ran both systems in parallel for a 4-week period. Simultaneously, the Techniques Development Laboratory (TDL) applied the operational RAFS-based Model Output Statistics (MOS) equations to output from both the operational and proposed (parallel) versions of the Nested Grid Model (NGM) to generate two sets of MOS forecasts. Our goal was to determine the impact of RAFS modifications on the NGM MOS forecasts. At the end of the 4-week test period, we verified both the operational and parallel NGM MOS forecasts. Virtually no differences in accuracy or skill existed between the operational and parallel MOS forecasts of max/min temperature, probability of precipitation, and surface wind. The skill of the cloud amount forecasts, however, deteriorated significantly. The NGM 300-mb relative humidity field changed markedly as a result of the RAFS modifications, and this change affected the cloud forecasts. Since the cloud cover forecasts were the only NGM MOS products adversely impacted by the new parallel RAFS, we rederived the cloud equations without the 300-mb relative humidity. These equations were implemented operationally in September 1990. When the new RAFS is implemented, we expect that the impact on the current NGM MOS guidance will be minimal.

AB An important issue in understanding the low-frequency oscillations of the atmosphere and the ocean-atmosphere system concerns the role of transients during individual events. This question is examined from an observational point of view for the period from September 1981 to April 1982, which includes the transitional phase of the 1982-1983 El Nino/Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle, as well as six Madden-Julian (30-60 day) oscillations (MJO). For the developing ENSO, it is shown that interannual transitions in the anomalous atmospheric circulation and in the sea surface temperatures in the western-central Pacific coincide with the passage of strong MJOs from the Indian to Pacific oceans. For a MJO during December 1981, evidence is provided that the shift of convection from the eastern Indian Ocean to the western Pacific Ocean involves transients having periods around 10 days. The role of transients is discussed from the perspective of these interannual and intraseasonal modes.

Examples of the use of wind profilers in the tropics are drawn from the Aeronomy Laboratory's wind profilers located on Pohnpei, Micronesia (7-degrees-N, 158-degrees-E), and Christmas Island (2-degrees-N, 157-degrees-W). The Pohnpei wind profiler was constructed in 1984 and has been used exclusively to observe vertical motions. The Christmas Island wind profiler has observed horizontal and vertical velocities routinely since 1986. These two wind profilers form part of a planned trans-Pacific network of wind-profiling radars that will eventually span the tropical Pacific.

AB We describe the characteristics of surface westerly wind episodes in the tropical Pacific between mid-1957 and 1980, as they can be determined from a collection of daily average wind records from islands. Several types of frequency of occurrence and duration statistics are presented; events in which the maximum westerly anomalies exceed 7 m s-1 are not common, but are prominent in the records. There is strong seasonal and geographical variation in frequency of occurrence. Four types of westerly episodes are found; we call them types N, C, S, or FS, according to whether the maximum westerly wind is found north of, centered on, south of, or "far south" of the equator near the international date line. Sixteen, 45, 47, and 47 events of type N, C, S, and FS are identified, respectively. The strongest westerly winds are associated with type C and S events; maximum daily average values can exceed 20 m s-1. Only type C and S events are found to have substantial equatorial zonal wind anomalies. Several examples of type C and S events presented. Composite events of each type have been computed, and their characteristics are described. In order to explore relationships between equatorial westerly events and cyclones, all of the named tropical cyclones within a region encompassing the near-date line islands have been identified; various statistics are presented, but no absolute relationships have been identified. The similarity between the composite type C and S anomaly patterns and patterns of the El Nino-Southern Oscillation monthly mean zonal wind anomaly previously documented in the literature is striking; evidently, the westerly events often dominate in the monthly average anomaly.

LA English
DT Article
ID EL-NINO; KELVIN WAVES; SOUTHERN OSCILLATION; OCEAN; CURRENTS; BURST
AB It has been suggested recently that episodes of westerly wind near the international date line in the western Pacific tend to fall into one of four types. Three of the types have enough equatorial zonal wind variation to be able to induce an eastern Pacific response by forcing equatorial waves. In this note we examine the central and eastern Pacific waveguide response to idealized representations of these three types of westerly wind episodes, using a combination of linear theory and results from an ocean general circulation model. The idealized westerly wind types are the C type (maximum anomalies centered on the equator), the N type (maximum anomalies just north of the equator), and the S type (maximum anomalies just south of the equator). The composite C-type event excites equatorially trapped Kelvin pulses that alter sea surface temperature in the central and eastern Pacific. Warm anomalies caused by the C-type episode have approximately equal contributions from a zonal advection of heat by the Kelvin pulses and a meridional advection of heat by an altered instability wave field. Because the center of forcing of the S-type event is displaced off of the equator, the Kelvin pulses excited by the S-type episode have smaller amplitude than those of the C-type episode, even though the maximum wind anomaly is the same in the two cases. The S-type anomaly also excites weak Rossby-gravity waves that can propagate into the eastern Pacific. Because the Rossby-gravity waves are dispersive, their amplitude diminishes as the waves propagate into the eastern Pacific. The N-type episode, as observed in winds from the western tropical Pacific, is much weaker and of shorter duration than the C and S types, and therefore excites only a very weak eastern Pacific response. Although all types of westerly wind excite a local western Pacific response, only the C- and S-type events excite a significant eastern Pacific response.

ID MIXED LAYER; SOUTHERN OSCILLATION; UPPER OCEAN; FLUX; ANOMALIES
AB In this study we examine the surface layer heat balance using wind, current, and temperature data from equatorial moorings along 165-degrees-E. The analysis focuses primarily on daily to monthly time scale variations during the 1986-1987 El Nino/Southern Oscillation event. The period is one of high mean sea surface temperature (greater-than-or-similar-to 29-degrees-C) and frequent outbreaks of westerly winds. We infer that evaporative cooling related to wind speed variations accounts for a significant fraction of the observed sea surface temperature (SST) and upper ocean heat content variability. This evaporative heat flux converges nonlinearly in the surface layer, giving rise to larger temperature variations in the upper 10 m than below. Other processes examined (wind-force vertical advection and entrainment, lateral advection) were negligible or of secondary importance relative to evaporative cooling. A large fraction of the SST and surface layer heat content variance could not be directly related to wind fluctuations; this unexplained variance is probably related to shortwave radiative fluxes at the air-sea interface.

Differences in the estimated rainfall rate in excess of 20 mm d-1 were observed south of the equator, near the international date line, between the northern winter seasons of 1986-1987 and 1988-1989. The distribution of zonal mean rainfall varied significantly during the study period, as did monthly accumulated rainfall in the global tropics, where the difference between the wettest and driest months for the period January 1986 through May 1989 was 24%. No direct measurements (rain gage, radar) of large-scale areal-averaged rainfall are available for the global tropics, hence rainfall estimates, as inferred from satellite observations of cloud-top temperature, are used in this paper. A qualitative comparison of the behavior of the rainfall estimates during the 1986-1989 period with the expected rainfall anomaly patterns in regions with known rainfall responses to both the low ("warm") and high ("cold") Southern Oscillation Index (SOI) phases of ENSO phenomena is presented. The comparison indicates that rainfall variation during 1986-1989 in these regions behaved as expected, for the most part, for both phases of the ENSO cycle. The rainfall patterns are also compared to observed moisture and vertical motion fields in the atmosphere and sea surface temperature (SST) during this period.

AB Special Sensor Microwave/Imager data are used to examine the day-to-day variability of wind speed and precipitable water during the passage of an intraseasonal oscillation. First, SSM/I precipitable water and wind speed algorithms are evaluated for the tropical western Pacific Ocean. The algorithm by Alishouse for retrieving precipitable water vapor retrieves precipitable water values that compare well with island radiosonde observations, but the wind speeds retrieved using the algorithm by Goodberlet et al. compare with buoy wind speeds only marginally. A revised wind speed algorithm, based on regression with buoy wind speeds, is derived for use in this region. During the intraseasonal oscillation, anomalously high values of precipitable water, with maximum amplitude at 10-degrees-S, accompany the movement of convection eastward. Anomalously high wind speeds are found to the west of the convection and accompany its movement east. Differences of up to 20% are found along 10-degrees-S between the means of daily latent heat flux and U+3 values and the 60-day mean of these quantities. This implies that high frequency variability must be explicitly accounted for in diagnostics and modeling of air-sea interaction in the western equatorial Pacific Ocean.

ID EARTHS SURFACE; INTERFEROMETRY; GRAVITY; GEODESY; 3C-273
AB RADIO observations using very-long-baseline interferometry (VLBI) can measure the deflection of electromagnetic radiation by the Sun's gravitational field with an accuracy of better than 1 milliarcsecond, and can thus be used to test General Relativity. For an object at an angle-alpha from the centre of the Sun, the expected deflection is 1 (1 + gamma) (M(s)/r(e))((1 + cos-alpha)/(1 - cos-alpha)) 1/2, where M(s) is the mass of the Sun in geometrized units 2 (1.477 x 10(5) cm), r(e) is the distance from the Earth to the Sun in cm, and gamma is a parameter whose value is 1 if General Relativity is correct but which takes on different values in other theories of gravity. For gamma = 1, the deflection is 1,750 mas at the Sun's limb, 4 mas at alpha = 90-degrees and 0 at alpha = 180-degrees. Our analysis of ten years of VLBI data, including observations of objects in the range 2.5-degrees < alpha < 178-degrees, yields an estimate gamma = 1.0002 with a formal standard error of 0.00096 and an estimated standard error of 0.002. This determination is comparable in accuracy and in good agreement with the determination from Mars-Viking time-delay measurements 3.

TI ESTIMATES OF THE EFFECT OF SOUTHERN-OCEAN IRON FERTILIZATION ON
ATMOSPHERIC CO2 CONCENTRATIONS
SO NATURE
LA English
DT Article
ID PCO2
AB IT has been suggested 1-3 that fertilizing the ocean with iron might offset the continuing increase in atmospheric CO2 by enhancing the biological uptake of carbon, thereby decreasing the surface-ocean partial pressure of CO2 and drawing down CO2 from the atmosphere. Using a box model, we present estimates of the maximum possible effect of iron fertilization, assuming that iron is continuously added to the phosphate-rich waters of the Southern Ocean, which corresponds to 16% of the world ocean surface. We find that after 100 years of fertilization, the atmospheric CO2 concentration would be 59 p.p.m. below what it would have been with no fertilization, assuming no anthropogenic CO2 emissions, and 90-107 p.p.m. less when anthropogenic emissions are included in the calculation. Such a large uptake of CO2 is unlikely to be achieved in practice, owing to a variety of constraints that require further study; the effect of iron fertilization on the ecology of the Southern Ocean also remains to be evaluated. Thus, the most effective and reliable strategy for reducing future increases in atmospheric CO2 continues to be control of anthropogenic emissions.

Its overall energy distribution is similar to the well-known edge-on bipolar nebulae AFGL 2688 and AFGL 618. Ground-based optical and infrared observations of this object and two other 21-mu-m sources show that while all three have very similar infrared properties, they differ greatly in the visual region. We suggest that all three of these 21-mu-m sources are intrinsically similar bipolar nebulae viewed at different orientations.

AB The record of globally averaged sea surface temperature (SST) over the past 130 years shows a highly significant correlation with the envelope of the 11-year cycle of solar activity over the same period. This correlation could be explained by a variation in the sun's total irradiance (the solar "constant") that is in phase with the solar-cycle envelope, supporting and updating an earlier conclusion by Eddy (1976) that such variations could have played a major role in climate change over the past millennium. Measurements of the total irradiance from spacecraft, rockets, and balloons over the past 25 years have provided evidence of long-term variations and have been used to deveop a simple linear relationship between irradiance and the envelope of the sunspot cycle. This relationship has been used to force a one-dimensional model of the thermal structure of the ocean (Hoffert et al., 1980), consisting of a 100-m mixed layer coupled to a deep ocean and including a thermohaline circulation. The model was started in the mid-seventeenth century, at the time of the Maunder Minimum of solar activity, and mixed-layer temperatures were calculated at 6-month intervals up to the present. The total range of irradiance values during the period was about 1%, and the total range of SST was about 1-degrees-C. Cool periods, when temperatures were about 0.5-degrees-C below present-day values, were found in the early decades of both the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. There is direct evidence for the latter period from the historical SST record and some indirect evidence for the earlier cool period. While many aspects of the study are unavoidably simplistic, the results can be taken as indicating that solar variability has been an important contributor to global climate variations in recent decades. It has probably not been the only contributor, however, and in particular, the growing atmospheric burden of greenhouse gases may well have played an important role in the immediate past. This role is likely to become even more important in the near future.

ID GRAVITY-WAVE SPECTRUM; MST RADAR; STRATOSPHERE; ATMOSPHERE
AB The vertical wind velocity over very flat terrain was observed every 153 s in the troposphere and lower stratosphere by the Flatland radar, near Champaign-Urbana, Illinois. Several hundred frequency spectra were calculated from all accepted 6-hour time series from March through May 1987. By stratifying the spectra in various ways we find the following: (1) The spectra were independent of altitude within the troposphere or lower stratosphere, but the spectra in the two regions differed in amplitude and frequency; (2) At a given altitude the spectra were independent of the wind shear duBAR/dz, the buoyancy frequency N, and the maximum wind speed below 16 km; (3) The change of spectral shape and amplitude with increasing background wind speed uBAR was much less than at stations near mountains. The variance of the spectra, equal to twice the vertical kinetic energy per unit mass, roughly doubled as u-BAR increased by 10 m s-1; (4) The spectra were consistent with being due to a spectrum of gravity waves, as indicated by the sharp drop in spectral amplitude near N at small uBAR and by the fact that the observed change of shape with increasing uBAR was quite consistent with the change of shape of model Doppler-shifted gravity wave spectra; (5) The results of comparison between the observed and model spectra are consistent with an intrinsic gravity wave spectrum that is invariant with uBAR, duBAR/dz, etc., contrary to expectations from gravity wave theory; (6) The results are insensitive to the azimuthal distribution of gravity wave energy, as long as the distribution is roughly symmetrical relative to the mean flow; (7) The resulting characteristics horizontal phase velocity c* of the intrinsic frequency spectrum was about 6 m s-1 in both the troposphere and the stratosphere. The corresponding characteristic vertical wavelengths were about 3300 and 1800 m, respectively, consistent with previous estimates.

TI LONG-TERM CHANGES IN THE TOTAL OZONE MAPPING SPECTROMETER RELATIVE TO
WORLD PRIMARY STANDARD DOBSON SPECTROMETER-83
SO JOURNAL OF GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH-ATMOSPHERES
LA English
DT Article
AB We have examined the stability of the calibration of the Nimbus 7 solar backscatter ultraviolet (SBUV) and total ozone mapping spectrometer (TOMS) instruments by comparing their ozone measurements with those made by a single, very stable Dobson instrument: the world primary standard Dobson spectrometer number 83. Measurements of ozone made with instrument 83 at Mauna Loa observatory in eight summers between 1979 and 1989 were compared with coincident TOMS ozone measurements. The comparison shows that relative to instrument 83, ozone measured by TOMS (and SBUV) was stable between 1979 and approximately 1983, had decreased by 3% by 1986, and had decreased by almost 7% by 1989. A similar time dependence is seen when data from an ensemble of 39 Dobson stations throughout the world is compared with TOMS over the period 1979-1987. The most likely reason for the relative drift is that the diffuser plate used by both SBUV and TOMS to measure solar flux has suffered an uncorrected wavelength dependent degradation, with most of the degradation occurring after 1983. The recently released version 6 TOMS data, corrected using the internal "pair justification" technique, show almost no drift relative to Dobson instrument 83. We conclude from these comparisons that accurate measurements of long-term global ozone change will require a coherent system incorporating both ground based and satellite based ozone measurements.

AB Ambient concentrations of key trace gases were measured concurrently at a rural site in the eastern United States during the summer of 1986. The extensive data set allows the evaluation of certain aspects of photochemical oxidant models. A 4-day high-pressure period is chosen for a comparison of the model predictions with observations. The emphasis of this analysis is on the discussion of the photochemistry of the reactive nitrogen species and their role in shaping the ozone budget. Observations of the NO2/NO ratio provide an estimate of the peroxy radical concentration at the site. The peroxy radical concentration so derived indicates a significant in-situ O3 formation which is in accordance with the observed diurnal variation of O3. Isoprene, a natural hydrocarbon, is shown to be much more important than the anthropogenic hydrocarbons in this O3 formation. At this rural site NO, NO2, HNO3, and peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) account for 85% or more of NO(y) (the sum of the reactive nitrogen species). The diurnal cycle of the reactive nitrogen species and their partitioning is determined by transport and photochemical conversion. At night in the boundary layer defined by a low-level inversion, NO(x) is the major NO(y) species at this site. Nitric acid and PAN are suppressed by dry deposition and, in the case of PAN, thermal decomposition. During the daytime the NO(x) contribution to NO(y) decreases first as higher concentrations of HNO3 and PAN are mixed downward upon the breakup of the nocturnal inversion followed by NO(x) conversion to other NO(y) species in photochemical reactions.

AB Inelastic-neutron-scattering techniques have been used to measure the generalized phonon density of states in superconducting Nd1.85Ce0.15CuO4. There is reasonable agreement at low energies between our measurements and recent point-contact-tunneling density-of-states measurements reported by Huang et al., which suggests that phonons play a major role in pairing in the electron-superconductor systems. The correspondence at higher energies, however, is not particularly good, but probably reflects the difficulty in obtaining quantitative tunneling data.

LA English
DT Article
ID HARD-SPHERE GAS; PERTURBATION-THEORY; DYNAMICS; COEFFICIENT; EQUATION
AB Transport properties of moderately dense fluids reflect several effects not present at the Boltzmann level: excluded volumes, finite collision times, and bound states. The description and relative importance of these effects is illustrated here by a discussion of the self-diffusion coefficient for the square well fluid. At high temperatures the particles behave as hard spheres and the Enskog kinetic theory describing excluded volume effects is adequate. Generalizations of the Enskog theory for application at lower temperatures are discussed critically. One approach assumes partial (uncorrelated) collisions for initial conditions modified to account for excluded volume effects. Another describes completed binary collisions at the core and edges of the well for the same modified initial conditions. Although both reduce to the Enskog theory at high temperatures, neither is adequate outside this limit for prediction of either the temperature or the density dependence. The proper treatment of both temperature and density effects is found to require a more detailed description of interrupted binary collisions and bound states. Such a treatment is described and shown to be in good agreement with computer simulation results. We conclude that generalization of the hard-sphere Enskog theory to the square well, and probably other potential models, is more subtle than might be expected and requires dynamical as well as static many-body effects.

AB Gas transfer velocities across the air-water interface are correlated with wind speed, friction velocity, and radar backscatter from the surface in a large wind-wave tank in Delft, The Netherlands. The rates of sulfur hexafluoride and nitrous oxide exchange were measured at wind speeds ranging from 3.5 m/s to 20 m/s, and with mechanically generated waves in the 100 m long, 8 m wide, and 0.7 m deep tank. Gas transfer velocities were related to wind speed with a power law dependence. Gas transfer showed a linear dependence with friction velocity. An exponential relationship between gas transfer and average radar backscatter cross section fits the wind tunnel data well for microwave units operating at 13.5 and 35 GHz in VV and HH polarization. The relative rates of gas exchange of the two gases confirm an inverse square root dependence on the Schmidt number at intermediate wind speeds. A slight enhancement of sulfur hexafluoride exchange compared to nitrous oxide exchange was evident when breaking waves were present.

AB The room-temperature strength of commercially available polymer-derived SiC fibres degrades during the typical high-temperature thermal cycle used in ceramic matrix composite fabrication. Substantial improvements in retained room-temperature strength for two different commercially available fibres were observed after annealing in carbon powder at temperatures up to 1600-degrees-C. Further improvements in strength were observed for both fibres when heat treated in CO atmospheres. X-ray diffraction, TEM, SEM, auger electron spectroscopy, and optical microscopy were used to characterize the microstructure and chemistry of these heat-treated fibres in order to understand better the degradation mechanisms of the fibres as well as their improved strength retention.

TI THE FRONTOGENETICAL FORCING OF SECONDARY CIRCULATIONS .1. THE DUALITY
AND GENERALIZATION OF THE Q-VECTOR
SO JOURNAL OF THE ATMOSPHERIC SCIENCES
LA English
DT Article
ID OMEGA-EQUATION; DIAGNOSIS
AB Hoskins, Draghici, and others have shown that the Q vector is an important quantity in quasi-geostrophic (QG) theory for the diagnosis of ageostrophic circulations. In this paper, a vorticity dynamics perspective is used to develop a generalized Q vector, Q*. An equation that relates the material derivative of the thermal-wind imbalance vector to Q* and ageostrophic terms in isentropic flow is obtained from the primitive equations (PE). The generalized Q vector is the vector mean of two terms: a frontogenetical vector that, for horizontal isentropic flow, is equal to the vector frontogenesis function F, and a vortex stretching term proportional to the stretching and reorientation of vorticity by the horizontal wind. Invoking just one QG assumption, the substitution of geostrophic for total velocity gradients, reduces Q* to Q and leads directly to the omega equation of QG theory. The frontogenetical and vortex stretching parts of the generalized Q vector of PE theory become equal in the QG limit. Thus, the conventional Q vector has dual physical interpretations in terms of vorticity and thermodynamic properties. The divergence of the Q vector in its vortex stretching form is equal to the forcing term in the Sutcliffe, Wiin-Nielsen, and Trenberth version of the omega equation. The self-destruction of balanced flow and its restoration by vertical secondary circulations is explained in terms of entropy and vorticity properties.
A new assumption (Alternative Balance or AB) consists of omitting the material derivative of the thermal-wind imbalance vector, so that thermal-wind balance is restored instantaneously by secondary circulations. This approximation reduces the PE omega and secondary circulation equations to diagnostic forms resembling their QG equivalents, except for the replacement of Q by Q*. Under the AB assumption, the Q* vector points toward rising motion and inertial gravity waves are excluded.

TI LOCAL BONDING STRUCTURE OF SB ON SI(111) BY SURFACE EXTENDED

SO PHYSICAL REVIEW B

DT Article
ID INTERFACES; SILICON; SI
AB The combined techniques of surface extended x-ray-absorption fine structure (SEXAFS) and high-resolution core and valence photoelectron spectroscopy have been used to study the local bonding structure of the Sb/Si(111) interface. From photoemission, we find that the Sb atoms adsorb in a unique environment that completely saturates the dangling bonds of the Si(111) surface and that completely eliminates the surface components of the Si 2p core-level spectrum. The Sb-induced Si 2p interfacial core level is found to be shifted 0.20 +/- 0.02 eV towards higher binding energy with an intensity that corresponds to the top monolayer of surface atoms. The SEXAFS determination of the absolute surface coordination numbers and bond lengths within the first Sb shell is 2.1 +/- 0.3 Sb atoms at 2.86 +/- 0.02 angstrom and 2.0 +/- 0.4 Si atoms at 2.66 +/- 0.03 angstrom. Combined, these results indicate that Sb trimers occupy the threefold atop sites of the Si(111) surface, where each Sb atom is bonded to two Si atoms in a modified bridge configuration.

The Si L2,3 spectra, which provide a measure of the partial densities of states of s and d angular momentum symmetry ([s + d] PDOS) localized on the Si site, are compared with available theoretical calculations, and discussed in terms of the contribution of s electrons to the bonding. The Ni and Co M2,3 emission spectra are also obtained, and analyzed to provide information about the d PDOS localized at the metal site. These spectra are discussed in terms of p-d bonding in the silicides.

AB We investigate dependences between stellar wind and X-ray properties of the O-type stars. New IUE-based mass-loss rates and wind terminal velocities are obtained for 40 well-known, bright single stars or binaries. There is no evidence for enhanced mass loss from the binaries compared with the single stars. We suggest that a weak dependence between L(x) and M-upsilon-infinity found here for single stars at least partially accounts for the observed proportionality between L(x) and L(bol). Very tight, detached, massive binaries with kinetic energy of the wind exceeding 3 x 10(35) ergs s-1 (\M\ > 10(-7) M. yr-1) generate an excess X-ray flux which is in a qualitative agreement with simple theories of colliding stellar winds.

AB The IRAS low-resolution spectra of three recent symbiotic novae (HM Sge. V1016 Cyg, and RR Tel) are fitted with a dust continuum radiative transfer model. We find that the dust shells are detached from the photosphere and that the sizes of the inner radii are correlated with times since outburst. An analysis of the IUE spectra of HM Sge at different epochs suggests that the strength of the 2200 angstrom feature is decreasing with time and the grains responsible for the feature are probably formed in the white dwarf ejecta. A complete accounting of the entire energy budget from radio to X-ray shows that most of the energy is emitted by the cool component in the infrared, and a significant fraction of the flux of the hot component is escaping in the far-ultraviolet. The density-bounded nature of the circumstellar gas nebulae could be the result of a bipolar geometry of the nebulae. Unlike classical novae, the optical outburst of symbiotic novae is due to the ionization of the preexisting envelope of the cool component and is not the result of a sudden ejection by the hot component.

AB I analyze VLA observations of the K5 IV star 1E 1751 + 7046, which is known to be an X-ray source on the basis of Einstein observations and which shows some similarity to stars of the FK comae type. Radio continuum emission has been detected at 3.6, 6, and 20 cm, and the spectral distribution is nearly flat. There is no evidence for circular polarization, and upper limits given. The 6 cm flux is roughly one order of magnitude less than reported in a previous VLA observation, indicating that this star may flare at radio wavelengths. The inferred radio variability and the nearly flat spectral energy distribution suggest that the emission is of nonthermal origin. A variety of possible emission mechanisms are examined, and I conclude that the emission is best explained in terms of a gyrosynchrotron/synchrotron model with the electrons following a power-law energy distribution. A brief comparison of the radio properties of 1E 1751 + 7046 with FK Comae-like stars and RS CVn systems is given.

AB Results of repeated levelings have been used to determine the patterns of elevation change associated with the Yellowstone caldera, and apparent viscoelastic rebound following the magnitude 7.3 earthquake near Hebgen Lake in 1959. Models with alternative treatments for nonuniform height change were utilized. Area-wide levelings in 1923, 1975-1977, and 1987 in Yellowstone National Park allowed derivation of uplift velocities for the periods before and after 1976. Maximum uplift velocity for the earlier period was 14 mm/yr, causing 90 cm of height change from 1923 to 1984. Recent annual levelings on the east side of the caldera show a cessation of uplift in 1984-85, and the beginning of rapid subsidence; -19 mm/yr from 1985 to 1989. The long-term uplift correlates closely with the caldera rim. After structuring the leveling observations to be insensitive to the 1959 coseismic deformation (-6 m) at Hebgen Lake, the broader spatial pattern of postseismic rebound was resolved, showing uplift of at least 32 cm. As a group, the relevelings converging at nearby West Yellowstone were accomplished at various times, which allowed selection of a best model to fit the temporal character of postseismic motion. The preferred model has a 2-year decay period indicating that uplift stopped by 1970. Supplementary indications of the uplift near Hebgen Lake were obtained by comparing Global Positioning System data to earlier levelings, facilitated by a new precise geoid by D. G. Milbert and W. T. Dewhurst (submitted manuscript, 1990).

AB The photoelectron spectra of C2- and C2H- have been measured at a photon energy of 3.531 eV. The electron affinities of dicarbon, EA(C2) = 3.269 +/- 0.006 eV and ethynyl radical, EA(C2H) = 2.969 +/- 0.006 eV, are determined. The dissociation energy of dicarbon anion, D0(C2-) = 187.2 +/- 2.5 kcal mol-1, is derived from the experimental electron affinities of C2 and C and the literature value for the dissociation energy of neutral dicarbon, D0(C2) = 141.0 +/- 2.5 kcal mol-1. The CC stretch fundamental and CCH bending vibrational levels up to nu = 3 are observed in C2H(approximately X2-SIGMA+). The fundamental frequencies for C2H-(approximately X1-SIGMA+) are 1800 +/- 20 cm-1 (CC stretch) and 505 +/- 20 cm-1 (CCH bend). The photoelectron spectrum of ethynyl exhibits strong non-Franck-Condon transitions, induced by vibronic coupling, to odd vibrational levels in the CCH bend. These transitions also exhibit different photoelectron angular distributions than the Franck-Condon allowed vibrational transitions. The C2H(approximately A2-PI) excited state was not observed within the experimental energy range, implying a lower limit of 3400 cm-1 for its term energy.

TI POTENTIAL SCATTERING IN A SLOWLY VARYING LASER FIELD - RELATIVISTIC
GENERALIZATIONS
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICS A-MATHEMATICAL AND GENERAL
LA English
DT Article
AB A variational approach to the problem of relativistic potential scattering in a laser field is developed. The field is assumed to be slowly varying compared with the collision time and to have a well defined direction of propagation, but is otherwise arbitrary. A trial function is chosen having the correct gauge-transformation property and accounting in an approximate manner for the simultaneous interaction of the projectile with the centre of force and with the laser field. The variational calculation provides a low-frequency approximation for the transition amplitude of improved accuracy compared with those obtained in previous treatments of this problem. The analysis is first given in terms of a spin-zero wave equation and then extended to allow for the scattering of a Dirac particle. A relativistic analogue of the Kroll-Watson approximation is obtained with the field is taken to be monochromatic and certain higher-oder correction terms are dropped.

TI POSITIVE WATER-VAPOR FEEDBACK IN CLIMATE MODELS CONFIRMED BY SATELLITE
DATA
SO NATURE
LA English
DT Article
AB CHIEF among the mechanisms thought to amplify the global climate response to increased concentrations of trace gases is the atmospheric water vapour feedback. As the oceans and atmosphere warm, there is increased evaporation, and it has been generally thought that the additional moisture then adds to the greenhouse effect by trapping more infrared radiation. Recently, it has been suggested that general circulation models used for evaluating climate change overestimate this response, and that increased convection in a warmer climate would actually dry the middle and upper troposphere by means of associated compensatory subsidence1. We use some new satellite-generated water vapour data to investigate this question. From a comparison of summer and winter moisture values in regions of the middle and upper troposphere that have previously been difficult to observe with confidence, we find that, as the hemispheres warm, increased convection leads to increased water vapour above 500 mbar in approximate quantitative agreement with the results from current climate models. The same conclusion is reached by comparing the tropical western and eastern Pacific regions. Thus, we conclude that the water vapour feedback is not overestimated in models and should amplify the climate response to increased trace-gas concentrations.

AB Estimates of ecosystem structure and function using remotely sensed data are based on the information contained in reflected and emitted radiation. Soil plays an integral role in almost all remote observations of the land surface either because the vegetation cover is discontinuous or because multiple scattering of the radiation occurs between vegetation and the underlying soil surface. However, since vegetation covers most of the land surface, we should consider the plant canopy as a primary interface to soil processes. In many ways, the canopy is an integrated expression of (and is mutually linked to) below-ground processes and can, as such, be used to infer ecosystem properties. Classifications of satellite imagery into vegetation communities in which soil processes have been characterized can be used to extrapolate those processes across the landscape based on the areal extent of the associated cover type. Ratios of reflectance values measured in the region of chlorophyll absorption to those in the highly reflected near-infrared region are sensitive to biomass quantity and, when integrated over time, strongly correlate with primary productivity. Imaging spectrometers which measure the reflected spectrum in many narrow contiguous bands enable the development of spectral mixture models to deconvolve the reflectance signal from each pixel in an image into each of the components contributed by spectrally distinct materials on the ground, e.g. vegetation and soil. High spectral resolution measurements of the absorption characteristics of major foliar chemical constituents may permit assessment of canopy-level concentrations and related processes such as decomposition and nitrogen mineralization.
Predicting the types of soil processes and their rates from remote sensing data will depend on strong correlations between canopy variables and the process of interest. This paper discusses the potential for measuring canopy indicators of below-ground processes using current and emerging remote sensing technology, and how we might begin to construct a set of measurements relevant to studies of soil processes and their dynamics over time and space. Basic remote sensing principles are presented with an emphasis on the visible and short-wave infrared spectral region (0.4-2.5-mu-m), followed by a discussion of the spectral properties of soil and vegetation.

TI EFFECTS OF TARGET SHAPE AND NEUTRON-SCATTERING ON ELEMENT SENSITIVITIES
FOR NEUTRON-CAPTURE PROMPT GAMMA-RAY ACTIVATION-ANALYSIS
SO ANALYTICAL CHEMISTRY
LA English
DT Article
AB Results are presented for a study of the effects of neutron scattering by hydrogen on element sensitivities for in-beam neutron capture prompt gamma-ray activation analysis. In a scattering matrix, sensitivities vary as a function of both the scattering density, i.e., the number of scatterers per unit volume and the magnitude of scattering cross sections, and the target geometry, i.e., the target shape and orientation with respect to the neutron beam. Element sensitivities (counts.s-1.mg-1) increased linearly with H density (g.mL-1) for H, B, Na, Cl, K, Mn, Br, Ag, Cd, I, Sm, and Gd, measured for liquids packaged in Teflon bags. Nine of the 12 elements studied had 1.69 +/- 0.18% sensitivity enhancement per percent increase in H density. Samarium sensitivity was enhanced by only 0.54 +/- 0.07%/% H, which may indicate that neutron scattering by H causes a shift in the energy distribution of the neutrons. Manganese sensitivity was enhanced by 2.44 +/- 0.26%/% H. The enhancement of the sensitivity for H itself varied with matrix composition. For several series of disk-shaped, solid, hydrogenous targets, element sensitivities increased with decreasing target thickness until, at some limiting thickness, this trend was reversed. Consistent with theory, sensitivities measured for spherical hydrogenous targets showed no enhancement.

PROBE MICROANALYSIS
AB X-ray fluorescence results of the analysis of titanium in NIST SRM 1165 and 1264 low-alloy steels were found to be significantly different from the certified values. These differences appear to be unique to the XRF results since results from other methods such as emission spectroscopy did not show any discrepancies. The microhomogeneity of selected samples was examined by electron probe microanalysis and revealed the presence of titanium inclusions containing varying amounts of zirconium, niobium, and tantalum. Differences in metallurgical uniformity are believed to be the major cause of apparent XRF bias in these SRMs. XRF analysis of the new 1760-series alloys indicates that these are more uniform and more accurate for purposes of calibration than the 1160 series and 1260 series for elements such as titanium.

AB The date of snowmelt near Barrow, Alaska, for recent years is determined from radiometric in situ measurements of the tundra solar albedo. The snowmelt dates determined from the albedo measurements dispute recently published values based on routine visual observations at the Barrow National Weather Service (NWS) Office. Local heat-budget-altering effects of the village and its recent abrupt growth are suggested as the cause for the disagreement between the rural albedo and NWS "in town" observations. The open tundra albedo measurements combined with hitorical NWS observations suggest that there is no significant trend in the date of snowmelt near Barrow.

AB Mixtures of Cu2+ and H2O2 at pH 7.4 caused damage to the bases in DNA greater than that caused by mixtures of Fe3+ and H2O2. Addition of ascorbic acid to the Cu2+/H2O2 system caused a very large increase in base damage, much greater than that produced by the Fe3+/H2O2/ascorbic acid system. The products of base damage in the presence of Cu2+ were typical products that have been shown to result from attack of hydroxyl radicals upon the DNA bases. Cytosine glycol, thymine glycol, 8-hydroxyadenine and especially 8-hydroxyguanine were the major products in both the Cu2+/H2O2 and the Cu2+/H2O2/ascorbic acid systems. Base damage in DNA by these systems was inhibited by the chelating agents EDTA and nitrilotriacetic acid and by catalase, but not by superoxide dismutase, nor by the hydroxyl-radical scavenger mannitol. It is proposed that Cu2+ ions bound to the DNA react with H2O2 and ascorbic acid to generate hydroxyl radicals, which then immediately attack the DNA bases in a site-specific manner. A hypoxanthine/xanthine oxidase system also caused damage to the DNA bases in the presence of Cu2+ ions. This was inhibited by superoxide dismutase and catalase. The high activity of Cu2+ ions, when compared with Fe3+ ions, in causing hydroxyl-radical-dependent damage to DNA and to other biomolecules, means that the availability of Cu2+ ions in vivo must be carefully controlled.

ID INGLEWOOD FAULT ZONE; LOS-ANGELES BASIN; CALIFORNIA EARTHQUAKES;
SOUTHERN-CALIFORNIA; WRENCH TECTONICS; STRESS
AB Regional seismographic network and teleseimic data for the 1933 (M(L) = 6.3) Long Beach earthquake sequence have been analyzed. Both the teleseismic focal mechanism of the main shock and the distribution of the aftershocks are consistent with the event having occurred on the Newport-Inglewood fault. The focal mechanism had a strike of 315-degrees, dip of 80-degrees to the northeast, and rake of -170-degrees. Relocation of the foreshock-main shock-aftershock sequence using modern events as fixed reference events, shows that the rupture initiated near the Huntington Beach-Newport Beach City boundary and extended unilaterally to the northwest to a distance of 13 to 16 km. The centroidal depth was 10 +/- 2 km. The total source duration was 5 sec, and the seismic moment was 5* 10(25) dyne-cm, which corresponds to an energy magnitude of M(w) = 6.4. The source radius is estimated to have been 6.6 to 7.9 km, which corresponds to a Brune stress drop of 44 to 76 bars. Both the spatial distribution of aftershocks and inversion for the source time function suggest that the earthquake may have consisted of at least two subevents. When the slip estimate from the seismic moment of 85 to 120 cm is compared with the long-term geological slip rate of 0.1 to 1.0 mm/yr along the Newport-Inglewood fault, the 1933 earthquake has a repeat time on the order of a few thousand years.

Counterrotating vortex structures internal and external to the flame surface appear and move upward along with flame sheet bulges. Tip-cutting (flickering) occurs with a frequency of 11-15 Hz. These dynamic features bear close resemblance to those observed experimentally by means of the rective Mie scattering (RMS) technique. Comparisons between computational and experimental (determined using thin filament pyrometry) near-instantaneous radial temperature profiles at four heights in the flame also show good agreement. The assumption of zero gravity in the computation results in the complete cessation of dynamical activity, thus demonstrating the important role that buoyancy plays in the behavior of this flame.

AB We describe an efficient procedure for propagation a spatially extended wavefunction evaluated on a small grid. The procedure involves the repeated splitting of the wavefunction into a part residing mainly in the interaction region (small fragment separation) and parts residing solely in the asymptotic region (large fragment separation), and propagation each part separately. The splitting is done by multiplying the wavefunction by the functions f(R) and 1 - f(R), where R is the internuclear separation of an unbound degree of freedom and f(R) equals one in the interaction region and falls to zero in the asymptotic region. Each asymptotic piece of the wavefunction is propagated to some final time, in the momentum representation where it does not spread or translate, by a single application of a free-particle propagator. Unlike the use of an absorbing boundary, the total wavefunction can be reassembled at a later time by adding the individual asymptotic pieces, propagated to a common final time with a free-particle propagator, to the part of the wavefunction remaining in the interaction region. This procedure is well suited to propagation methods that evaluate the wavefunction on a spatial grid, because the amount of asymptotic region included in the grid, and therefore the computational effort, can be minimized (the smaller the asymptotic region, the more frequent the splitting). The propagation method is demonstrated in the calculation of the fragment kinetic energy distribution produced by the intense field photodissociation of H2+. This example illustrates the propagation method for a system whose wavefunction becomes very extended with time due to multiphoton bound-continuum and continuum-continuum transitions.

AB Twenty-eight hydrographic surveys of the Middle Atlantic Bight (MAB) were conducted during 1977-1987 as part of the National Marine Fisheries Service's Marine Resources, Monitoring, Assessment, and Prediction program. The average temperature and salinity for Shelf Water (< 34 psu) in the MAB were determined for each survey. While temperature followed a well-defined seasonal cycle, the Shelf Water salinity exhibited large interannual variations. A stepwise multiple linear regression model is used to show that variations in river discharge and in precipitation can explain 70% of the year-to-year changes in the Shelf Water salinity.

AB Many applications of Josephson junctions require that the sidelobes of the critical-current patterns as a function of magnetic field be as small as possible. The sidelobes can be significantly suppressed by appropriate choice of junction geometry. This paper emphasizes that suppression is not just a long-junction effect. For a wide variety of shaped small junctions, the diffraction patterns are given by simple expressions, inspection of which quickly shows the overall features of the patterns. For some shapes the highest sidelobes can be kept well under 1% of the central lobe. For applications requiring long junctions, the geometry of small junctions giving the desired pattern is a practical starting point for a long-junction analysis.

AB A method using sodium amalgam electrodes has been developed to study the effect of protein on activity measurements and residual liquid junction potential of sodium in protein-containing solutions. It was tested for reliability by application to aqueous sodium chloride solutions before it was applied to protein-containing solutions. The experimentally determined activity coefficients are in good agreement with the activity coefficients for aqueous sodium chloride solutions reported in literature. Therefore, we used this method to measure the activity of NaCl solutions containing varying concentrations of bovine serum albumin (BSA). The electrode slope of the electrode responses in a protein-containing medium does not differ from that of pure aqueous solutions. A functional relationship has been established between the concentration of protein and the percent bias in the measurements. Measurements of electromotive force made in protein-containing solutions do not show any evidence of protein effect on liquid junction potential.

DE GADIDAE; SPAWNING; SPACING; AGGREGATION
AB The social and reproductive behavior of a group of four male and seven female walleye pollock, Theragra chalcogramma, were observed in a large tank. Pollock spent most of their time swimming in a loose aggregation near the surface. Males descended from the aggregation more often than females to follow and make physical contact with other males as well as with females. The difference between males and females in the frequency of diving in our tank is consistent with the reported pattern of depth segregation of the sexes in natural pollock spawning aggregations. The frequency of social interactions increased when pollock became reproductively active and was higher at night and during twilight when most of the spawning occurred. Male interactions with females most frequently involved physical contact, while male interactions with other males were more often limited to following. There was no indication that male-male interactions result in the formation of stable social dominance relationships that determine priority of access to mates, as has been suggested previously for walleye pollock. Rather, following and contact interactions appear to promote male identification of potential mates and encounters with ripe females. The possible functional significance of male social interactions is discussed in relation to reports on natural walleye pollock spawning aggregations.

AB Recent studies show that fish forage actively when perceived risk is low, but decrease foraging and increase vigilance when perceived risk is high. Isolated juvenile chum salmon, Oncorhynchus keta, were visually exposed to groups of conspecifics engaged in different activities to examine their ability to gain information about foraging opportunity and risk by interpreting conspecific behavior. Isolates ate most when exposed to feeding groups, less when exposed to nonfeeding groups, and least when exposed to alarmed groups. Isolates exposed to alarmed conspecifics also spent more time motionless than did fish exposed to either feeding or nonfeeding conspecifics. These findings indicate that schooling fish gain information by interpreting con-specific behavior, and are consistent with research showing that animals balance the conflicting demands of foraging and vigilance.

The first are vapor-liquid equilibrium measurements made in a simple variable-volume sapphire cell. The vapor pressures and saturation liquid densities were determined for both materials, between 268 K and the critical temperature for R134a and between 303 K and 373 K for R123. The saturation vapor density was also determined for R134a from 298 K to the critical point, where the critical conditions were measured. The second set of measurements were made with a vibrating tube densimeter from the saturation pressure to 5500 kPa for R134a and to 3500 kPa for R123 in the temperature range 278 K-368 K. These data are then compared with other determinations of similar properties.

TI BALLOON BORNE OBSERVATIONS OF BACKSCATTER, FROST POINT AND OZONE IN
POLAR STRATOSPHERIC CLOUDS AT THE SOUTH-POLE
SO GEOPHYSICAL RESEARCH LETTERS
LA English
DT Article
AB Concurrent backscatter and ozone measurements were made with near-simultaneous frost point soundings over the South Pole when the center of the 1990 winter vortex was at or very near that location. The initial water vapor concentration in the stratosphere was approximately 5ppmv and decreased to approximately 1.5-2.0 ppmv as cooling took place. By mid-July the stratospheric temperature had decreased to the frost point and heavy polar stratospheric cloud (PSC) activity was observed presumably due to the condensation of water vapor. The lowest water vapor concentrations observed correspond to saturated air at the lowest temperatures encountered. The slow recovery of the water vapor concentration during spring warming indicates that the 12 to 22 km altitude region in the vortex is not readily penetrated by outside air.
The observed large decrease in PSC backscatter above approximately 14 km before the stratosphere began to warm is consistent with loss of particles by sedimentation leading to significant dehydration and denitrification. The region of PSC activity in July is noted to be in the same region in which ozone depletion and the persistent dehydration is observed later in the year. At the end of August heavy PSC activity was observed in the lower stratosphere and upper troposphere, consistent with earlier observations from NASA aircraft. These lower clouds were in a region that apparently was still experiencing cooling. No compelling evidence was found supporting earlier claims that PSC layers are anti-correlated with ozone inside the vortex.

AB Fabrication of thermally isolated micromechanical structures capable of generating thermal radiation for dynamic thermal scene simulation (DTSS) is described. Complete compatibility with a commercial CMOS process is achieved through design of a novel, but acceptable, layout for implementation by the CMOS foundry using its regular process sequence. Following commercial production and delivery of the CMOS chips, a single maskless etch in an aqueous ethylenediamine-pyrocatechol mixture (EDP) is performed to realize the micromechanical structures. The resulting structures are suspended plates consisting of polysilicon resistors encapsulated in the field and CVD oxides available in the CMOS process. The plates are suspended by aluminum heater leads that are also encapsulated in the field and CVD oxides. Studies of the suitability of these structures for DTSS have been initiated, and early favorable results are reported.

AB Electrostatic discharge (ESD) metrology has, to date, primarily focused on the ESD current waveforms in order to develop simulators for susceptibility testing. Significantly less attention has been given to the fields generated by an ESD event. This paper examines ESD fields both analytically and experimentally. Measurements indicate that the electric fields can be quite significant (greater-than-or-equal-to 150V /m at a distance of 1.5 m for example) for short periods of time (a few nanoseconds), particularly for relatively low-voltage events (less-than-or-equal-to 6 kV). A relatively simple dipole model of an ESD spark is developed and used to predict the radiated fields. The agreement between theory and experiment is fair. The model may be used to predict ESD fields for a wide range of possible configurations, particularly in the near-field zone where no measurements are presently available.

DT Article
AB A systematic investigation of the emitter ballasting resistor for power Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (HBT's) is presented. The current handling capability of power HBT's is found to improve with ballasting resistance. An equation for the optimal ballasting resistance is presented, where the effects of thermal conductivity of the substrate material and the temperature coefficient of the ballasting resistor are taken into account. Current levels of 400 to 800 mA/mm of emitter periphery at case temperatures of 25 to -80-degrees-C for power AlGaAs/GaAs HBT's have been obtained using an on-chip lightly doped GaAs emitter ballasting resistor.
Device temperature has been measured using both an infrared micro-radiometer and temperature-sensitive electrical parameters. Steady-state and transient thermal modeling were also performed. Although the measured temperature is spatially nonuniform, the modeling results show that such nonuniformities would occur for a uniform current distribution, as would be expected for an HBT with emitter ballasting resistors.

TI A CROSS-VALIDATION PROCEDURE FOR STOPPING THE EM ALGORITHM AND
DECONVOLUTION OF NEUTRON DEPTH PROFILING SPECTRA
SO IEEE TRANSACTIONS ON NUCLEAR SCIENCE
LA English
DT Article
AB The iterative EM algorithm is used to deconvolve neutron depth profiling spectra. Because of statistical noise in the data, artifacts in the estimated particle emission rate profile appear after too many iterations of the EM algorithm. To avoid artifacts, the EM algorithm is stopped using a cross-validation procedure. The data are split into two independent halves. The EM algorithm is applied to one half of the data to get an estimate of the emission rates. The algorithm is stopped when the conditional likelihood of the other half of the data passes through its maximum. The roles of the two halves of the data are then switched to get a second estimate of the emission rates. The two estimates are then averaged.

AB Atmospheric particulate samples collected from remote mountainous locations in Colorado were extracted in sequence with methanol, methylene chloride, acetone and hexane. The resulting insoluble material was investigated using pyrolysis-mass spectrometry (Py-MS) and accelerator mass spectrometric C-14 analysis. The pyrolysis produced a complex mixture of aromatic and aliphatic hydrocarbons. The aliphatic hydrocarbons were postulated as being derived from vegetation. The C-14 analysis and the GC/MS results suggested that the aromatics occurred from combustion of living materials and also from long-range transport of industrial pollution. Appropriate samples from power plants and controlled forest fires were used to substantiate the conclusions.

TI ANOMALOUS LOW-FREQUENCY BUTTERFLY CURVES FOR SUBSIDIARY AND
FERROMAGNETIC-RESONANCE OVERLAP AT 3 GHZ
SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED PHYSICS
LA English
DT Article
AB Subsidiary absorption butterfly curves of spin-wave instability threshold versus static in-plane field have been obtained for yttrium iron garnet (YIG) thin films at 3 GHz. The butterfly curves have been found to be rather anomalous, typically displaying a pronounced dip and a very low minimum threshold. These anomalous features are attributed to the overlap of the subsidiary absorption field region with ferromagnetic resonance (FMR). First-order instability theory was extended to include the uniform mode response near FMR. The extended theory yields good fits to the data for reasonable values of the YIG FMR linewidths. The theoretical analysis also shows a predicted flip in the azimuthal propagation angle phi-k for the unstable spin waves in the region of FMR overlap. With increasing field, there are predicted discontinuous changes in rho-k from 90-degrees to 0-degrees and back to 90-degrees in the region of FMR.

DT Note
AB Cross-stream profiles of ocean surface currents between Florida and the Bahamas are highly correlated with the cross-stream-averaged current. When the cross-stream averaged speed is high, the speed axis of the Florida Current is to the west, and when the cross-stream-averaged speed is low, the speed axis is near the center of the straits. Since sea level and weather along the Florida coast are routinely used to nowcast cross-stream-averaged speed, nowcasts of cross-stream surface current profiles and location of the speed axis can also be routinely reported. An improved algorithm using cross-stream sea level difference and local weather, and a description of the revised NOAA Gulf Stream product from the National Hurricane Center are presented.

Anomalies in the rotational constants of the Rydberg vibrational levels and perturbations in the REMPI spectra are attributed to the interaction of the Rydberg state with a bound diabatic 1-PI-g valence state. The rotational dependence of the Rydberg-valence interaction is explored by solving the coupled eigenvalue equations describing the interaction of the two states. The results from solution of the coupled equations as well as observations from photoelectron spectroscopy experiments are used to understand the additional structure seen in the REMPI spectra in the vicinity of the upsilon' = 2 Rydberg vibrational level.

ID MONTE-CARLO SIMULATION; TEMPERATURE VAPOR LINE; GIBBS ENSEMBLE;
HARD-SPHERES; EQUILIBRIA
AB Fluid-fluid phase equilibrium in binary mixtures of positively nonadditive soft disks is studies using both molecular dynamics and Gibbs ensemble Monte Carlo simulations. The molecular dynamics simulations are unable to provide quantitative results for the phase transition, but they do indicate that some sort of ordering takes place as the temperature is lowered. In contrast, the Gibbs ensemble simulations demonstrate unambiguously the presence of a first-order transition and give quantitative results for the coexistence curve; however, convergence is very slow for mixtures that are not symmetric. Comparison with the Gibbs ensemble results indicates that a simple first-order perturbation theory provides good results far from the consolute point. Closer to the consolute point, the theory does not reproduce the flatness of the coexistence curve; this limitation is intrinsic in any mean-field theory. Comments are made regarding the relative merits of molecular dynamics and Gibbs ensemble simulations for studying fluid-fluid phase coexistence.

AB There is considerable evidence indicating that biominerals are formed by precipitation of octacalcium phosphate followed by its hydrolysis. Therefore, the hydrolysis of octacalcium phosphate was studied in aqueous solutions of alkali nitrates/chlorides or carbonates. The hydrolysis was accompanied by incorporation of alkali and carbonate ions into apatitic hydrolysis products. These were characterized by chemical analyses, infrared and X-ray diffraction spectroscopy, and solubility measurements. The extent of hydrolysis in carbonate-free media paralleled the extent of ion incorporation: Li > Na > K. The hydrolyses in corresponding carbonate media produced less crystalline apatitic products with B-type carbonate substitution.

LA English
DT Article
ID NUMBER
AB The motion of oscillators governed by the standard equations for the aerodynamic galloping of square prisms is studied for two cases: a harmonically forced, single elastically mounted bar immersed in a uniform flow, and an autonomous, elastically coupled pair of such bars. It is shown that the behavior of the forced oscillator has similarities to the behavior of the standard circle map. Thus it is possible to describe how locked-in oscillatory forms are organized within the forcing amplitude/frequency parameter space and to identify transitions from quasiperiodicity to chaos and turbulent intermittencies. For the coupled pair of oscillators, two stable attractors were identified on which the orbits are topologically similar, respectively, to the two normal modes of the associated linear system. Depending upon the system parameters, one of the attractors contains orbits that may be periodic, quasiperiodic, or chaotic. Beyond a critical flow velocity this attractor vanishes. For the other attractor, only periodic orbits were identified. This work is the first stage of a numerical and experimental investigation aimed at assessing the potential role of chaotic dynamics in bluff body fluid elasticity, with a view to application in ocean engineering.

It was observed that the configuration of the flame is particularly important for the successful application of the method. A premixed flame gave particles with an x-ray diffraction pattern resembling the XRD spectra of materials exposed to high concentrations of water vapor. An over-ventilated diffusion flame configuration produced the desired result: submicron unagglomerated, solid crystalline particles with T(c) = 92 K.

AB The elastic interactions of dislocations and intergranular cracks in isotropic materials have been studied. In the first part of the paper, a model based on the Rice-Thomson theory is established under which the conditions for dislocation emission and crack propagation can be described in terms of an emission surface, cleavage surface, and loading line in the local k-space associated with a mixed mode intergranular crack. For a given crack, the local k-field changes with the emission of dislocations from the crack tip, which alters the balance of cleavage and emission. In the second part, we present experimental results of in situ TEM observations of intergranular cracks in molybdenum. Alternating brittle crack propagation and dislocation emission is observed. The number of emitted dislocations corresponding to each crack propagation is in good agreement with the calculated values.

Partition coefficients for quaternary (MO-DO-TO-CO2) mixtures were obtained at 60-degrees-C at pressures ranging from 172 to 309 bar. Data indicate that diolein, and especially monoolein, exhibit positive deviation from ideal behavior, possibly due to intermolecular hydrogen bonding. Supercritical fluid CO2 appears to be a good media for removal of mono- and diacylglycerol by-products from synthetic triglyceride reaction mixtures at moderate temperatures.

ID MECHANISM; REDUCTION
AB The effect of electrolysis on graphite fiber-polymer matrix composites used as electrodes in a simulated seawater electrolyte was studied with interest in the impact of several composite construction variables. It was found that the electrochemical behavior is a function of the matrix polymer as well as the fiber orientation. Cathodic performance was found to be stable, while anodic performance was not. Anodic behavior was not singularly dominated by oxidation of the graphite but was affected by geometric considerations caused by the differing orientations of the fibers as well as the result of the fibers being incorporated into a polymer matrix.

AB A theoretical model is presented for computing the radiation-induced orientation of nonspherical particles in the atmosphere. This process is examined as a possible remote-sensing technique for determining size and shape characteristics of atmospheric aerosols. The theoretical model is applied to cirrus particles modeled as prolate dielectric spheroids. The radiation-induced perturbations in the average tip angle of the spheroids and in the backscattered depolarization ratio are computed for an assumed radiation flux of 5 mJ/cm2 for three different wavelengths. The computed perturbations are found to be approximately 30-40 dB down from the corresponding unperturbed values and appear marginally detectable by ground-based lidars.

STORMS; OCEAN; LAYER; CONDENSATION; ATMOSPHERE; SIMULATION
AB A vertically mesoscale regional numerical weather prediction model is used to simulate an arctic front. The front was observed during the Arctic Cyclone Expedition of 1984. The regional model employs a unique vertical nesting scheme in which the dynamics computations are performed on a low vertical-resolution (coarse) grid and the physics computations are performed on a high vertical resolution (fine) grid nested within the coarse grid. Turbulent fluxes are parameterized using a second-order closure approach. The model forecast compares favorably with the observations. Moreover, the model develops detailed mesoscale and boundary layer structure that verifies against the observations when initialized using only sparse, synoptic-scale data.
A control experiment is run in which identical, high vertical resolution is used on both the dynamics and the physics grids. Several additional simulations are performed in order to demonstrate the utility and accuracy of the vertical nesting methodology. With the typical nested configuration (14 coarse grid levels, 24 fine levels), the evolution of the front is nearly identical to the control. When the resolution is degraded to 14 points on both grids, significant structural differences in the boundary layer arise.
The terms of the frontogenetic forcing function are evaluated in each of the experiments. In all of the simulations, the horizontal deformation is the dominant frontogenetic effect while the tilting term is the dominant frontolytic term for this arctic front, just as it is for midlatitude cold fronts. The diabatic term is predominantly frontolytic with the strongest heating occurring in the cold air as the front moves off the ice edge and out over the Barents Sea. In an experiment in which surface sensible and latent heat fluxes are deleted, a slightly stronger front having more pronounced ageostropic circulation develops.

AB This study addresses the relative contributions of adiabatic baroclinic and diabatic processes and their interaction in the evolution of a rapidly intensifying marine cyclone. Two numerical experiments were performed using a limited-area mesoscale model. The adiabatic simulation showed that the surface cyclone was associated with the quasi-geostrophic vertical motion forcing of a midtropospheric short wave for a period greater than 12 hours, suggesting the presence of deep baroclinic forcing during the evolution of the storm. The full-physics simulation produced major cyclogenesis with a central pressure of 967 mb and a deepening of 37 mb in 24 h. The model simulated the development of comma-shaped cloud patterns, which compared favorably with satellite observations of the storm. Further analysis showed that the rapid cyclogenesis was strongly related to moist frontogenesis at the warm front. During rapid storm intensification, the heavy precipitation, the generation of vorticity, strong surface frontogenesis, and large surface pressure falls all took place in the vicinity of the warm front.
Quasi-geostrophic vertical velocity diagnosis of the full-physics simulation suggested a strong interaction between baroclinic and diabatic processes in the course of rapid development. The latent heat release significantly modified the frontal structure of the storm to reinforce its adiabatic secondary circulation. As a result, the adiabatic component of the vertical motion in the full-physics simulation was three times larger than that in the adiabatic simulation. Moreover, the upward and downward vertical motion induced by latent heat release was in phase with the secondary circulation associated with the adiabatic frontogenesis. The enhanced frontal circulation provided strong low-level moisture convergence to stimulate further frontal precipitation, establishing a positive feedback. Because of the large amount of latent heating associated with the warm frontal precipitation, diabatic heating was the dominant forcing mechanism for the vertical motion of the simulated storm during its rapid intensification. These results clearly indicate that it is not appropriate to treat the contribution of latent heat release (or other physical processes) to rapid development as a linear addition to the adiabatic dynamics, as has been done in most model sensitivity experiments. Rather, extratropical cyclogenesis should be viewed in the context of moist baroclinic instability with nonlinear interactions between the baroclinic dynamics and diabatic processes.

SO MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW

ID OCEAN; DISTURBANCES; INSTABILITY; PACIFIC; CISK; FLOW
AB The formation of two polar lows over the Gulf of Alaska are studied, using observations taken during the OCEAN STORMS field experiment. Synoptic-scale and mesoscale analyses were constructed using NOAA P-3 aircraft flight-level and radar data and dropwindsonde profiles, in addition to conventional data sources. The synoptic-scale analyses show that polar low development occurred in a low-level mesoscale baroclinic zone near the center of a mature, occluded synoptic-scale low pressure system. The disturbances propagated along the zone in the reverse shear sense, i.e., in the direction opposite to the thermal wind within the zone. The mesoscale analysis reveals a boundary layer jet of 38 m s-1 on the cold side of the baroclinic zone accompanying the leading polar low. Indirect evidence suggests that a Sawyer-Eliassen secondary circulation was present; polar low development occurred in the region of a frontogenetical geostrophic deformation. Convective activity was not prominent during the growth phase of the polar lows, as determined from satellite imagery and radar reflectivity measurements. Extremely high ocean waves (approximately 13 m) occurred in response to intense wind forcing on the mesoscale on a sea state preconditioned by moderate forcing on the synoptic scale. The observed synopticscale and mesoscale structures are compared with results from previously studied polar lows. This case appears to represent an example of polar low development due primarily to moist baroclinic processes.

ID SCATTERING; RADIATION
AB As shown many years ago by Bloch and Nordsieck [Phys. Rev. 52, 54 (1937)] and Nordsieck [Phys. Rev. 52, 59 (1937)], the cross section for scattering with the emission of an arbitrary number of soft photons is finite and can be expressed in terms of the cross section for scattering absence of the radiation field. The model used by Bloch and Nordsieck included only soft-photon modes of the field, with maximum frequency omega-s. They argued that corrections to their sum rule would be expressed in terms of two small parameters, r0-omega-s/c and h-omega-s/v, where r0 is the classical electron radius and v is the scattering energy. Corrections of first order were obtained previously by the author [Phys. Rev. A 21, 1939 (1980)], in the context of a nonrelativistic formulation scattering problem. Here all corrections of second order are derived. As in the earlier versions, the corrected cross section for scattering in the radiation field, summed over final states of the field, is determined from a knowledge of the field-free cross section. Use of unitarity property (the optical theorem) is found to be a simplifying technical device for this calculation, as indicated by the cancellation of divergences in the scattering amplitude in the forward direction. It is shown that in the dipole approximation the term in the electron-field interaction that is quadratic in the vector potential, while contributing to an energy-level shift, has no effect, to second order, on the final form of the sum rule.

ID SCATTERING; FIELD
AB A variational approach to the problem of scattering in a low-frequency laser field is adopted, with trial functions chosen to be of the type originally introduced by Kroll and Watson [Phys. Rev. A 8, 804 (1973)], who used them nonvariationally. The variational calculation leads to a low-frequency approximation that includes higher-order correction terms of relatively simple form. This provides the basis for an analysis of the accuracy of the approximation as the strength of the external field varies over a wide range of values. The cross-section sum rule is shown, for the case of a linearly polarized monochromatic field of moderate intensity, to be more accurate than had previously been realized by virtue of the cancellation of higher-order correction terms in the transition amplitude. The approach is shown to be applicable to elastic and inelastic electron-atom scattering in a multimode laser field with arbitrary polarization properties; it represents a natural generalization of the standard Kohn-type variational procedure frequently employed for field-free scattering problems, reducing to it in the absence of the field. The dressing of the target by the field, an effect which is known to have a significant influence on the scattering cross section in certain circumstances, is not accounted for in the construction of the trial function, but is properly included as part of the variational correction.

AB Measurements of velocity-changing collision (VCC) kernels are obtained using velocity-selective optical pumping. This is the first measurement of the shape of an elastic VCC kernel over the full thermal range of velocity changes. Since ground-state collisions are studied (5S1/2 Rb and He, Ne, Ar, Kr, or Xe), very low buffer-gas pressures can be used, and therefore pressure broadening (dephasing collisions) does not obscure the effects of VCC's. The data are deconvolved to eliminate the effects of the natural linewidth and are then extrapolated with respect to buffer-gas pressure to determine the single-collision limit. For small initial velocities, the measured kernels are consistent with a hard-sphere model for large velocity changes, but differ significantly for small velocity changes. The measured VCC kernels for large initial velocities and large velocity changes do not exhibit this agreement with the hard-sphere kernel. This implies that information about the inter-atomic potential can be obtained from a measurement of VCC kernels. We also show the inadequacy of the much-used Keilson-Storer kernel [J. Appl. Math. 10, 243 (1952)].

AB A dual-laser-plasma technique has been used to measure photoabsorption by atomic Cr and Mn and their ions at photon energies between 40 and 70 eV, where the dominant absorption mechanism is excitation of the 3p subshell. No dramatic differences are observed between the absorption spectra of Mn and Mn+, and these spectra are similar to those of Mn metal and MnCl2. The spectra of Cr and Cr+ are strikingly dissimilar, the mean excitation energy being about 5 eV greater in the ion. We attribute this to strong mixing of the localized 3d6 configuration with 3d5nd Rydberg configurations, an effect that is also responsible for the anomalous appearance of the Cr spectrum with respect to those of the other iron-period elements. The absorption spectra of Cr metal and CrCl2 take forms intermediate between those of Cr and Cr+. We give spectroscopic assignments to most of the sharp absorption features of Cr+ and determine the 3p ionization thresholds from quantum-defect analysis.

AB We have performed neutron-scattering experiments to study the magnetic excitations of Tm in its low-temperature ferrimagnetic-antiphase-domain (FAD) phase. Our measurements confirm our earlier finding that the excitation spectrum of Tm in its FAD phase consists of one magnon mode with limited dispersion (8.3-9.6 meV). This result suggests that the Hamiltonian is dominated by the crystal-field-anistropy energy and that the exchange interaction is relatively weak. Two additional lower-energy excitations have also been observed, and they have been identified as originating from magnetovibrational scattering from the TA phonon.

AB High-spatial-resolution magnetization maps of ferromagnetic surfaces are generated with use of scanning electron microscopy with polarization analysis (SEMPA). The structure of surface Neel walls is measured by SEMPA and compared directly to the results of micromagnetics simulations. We find that the surface magnetic properties observed with SEMPA can be modeled using standard micromagnetic theory using only bulk parameters. Surface-domain-wall magnetization profiles were measured, using two different probe diameters in each case, for an Fe(100) single crystal and for Permalloy films with thicknesses of 0.12, 0.16, 0.20, and 0.24-mu-m. In making the quantitative comparison to the surface-domain-wall profiles calculated from (bulk) micromagnetic theory, the rms deviations, the chi-2 statistic, a correlation statistic, and rms deviations at 5% and 95% confidence levels were determined for each case. The calculated and measured domain wall profiles agree on the average to within +/- 7.8% for 180-degrees walls in semi-infinite crystals of Fe(100), and +/- 4.5% for 180-degrees walls in thin films of Permalloy. The micromagnetic simulations show the 180-degrees wall of the bulk turning over into a Neel wall at the surface with the magnetization in the plane of the surface. The Neel wall extends from the surface into the bulk over a depth approximately equal to a Bloch-wall width.

Special emphasis is placed on the emerging standards of both Accredited Standards Committees (ASC) T1 and X3 in an attempt to harmonize the computer and telecommunication industries towards providing the user with an integrated platform that is vendor transparent and ubiquitous. This generic platform, which spans a large spector of businesses, is only presented as a base context for defining user specific needs and incubating the applications that directly relate to businesses. Distributed Transaction Processing, Electronic Data Interchange, Information Retrieval, Electronic Mail, and File Transfer together with seven supplementary services for voice and G4 facsimile are proposed for ISDN deployment in the marketplace. This paper, therefore, describes how the relevant standards may be exercised via the various ISDN channels and emphasizes the value of the North American ISDN Users' Forum for commercializing this platform.

AB Procedures that are currently applied to data from Advanced Very High Resolution Radiometer (AVHRR) in deriving vegetation indices are analyzed. It is shown that the type of compositing used has a great impact on the final product. Some misconceptions concerning the global vegetation index (GVI) data set are discussed. Cloud-screened daily data over Kansas prairie during 1 month were used to develop a viewing angle correction for the observed range of sun angles and for that particular surface type. This example indicates that the variability in the calculated vegetation indices could be reduced, thus raising the confidence level in statistical comparisons of observations for different years. The correction developed is applied to a different crop area and improvement in the results is demonstrated. Errors in the calculations are analyzed. Prospects for future improvements in processing vegetation index data are discussed.

AB This study investigated the direct imaging of low intensity x-rays by a room-temperature charge coupled device (CCD). Commercial CCD evaluation kits read out the information and provided initial processing of the data. The extraction of the signal from noise was achieved using NIM modules rather than by storing and numerically analyzing the data. Due to the fast processing at standard TV rates, the storage of the data required conversion of the signal from a timing to a pulse height analysis (PHA) spectrum. The tested CCDs were found to have lower efficiency relative to the proportional counter for the range of photon energies (1.5-8.0 keV) studied but had higher spatial resolution than gas-filled position-sensitive detectors. Application of CCDs for x-ray energy dispersive detectors is described.

AB A parametric study of the evolution within, and signatures at, 1 AU of high-speed streams is performed with the use of a MHD, 2 1/2-D, time-dependent model. This study is an extension of an earlier one by Smith and Dryer (1990) who examined the ecliptic plane consequences of relatively short-duration, energetic solar disturbances. The present study examines both the erupting and corotating parts of long-duration, high-speed streams characteristic of coronal hole flows. By examining the variation of the simulated plasma velocity, density, temperature, and magnetic field at 1 AU, as well as the location of the solar coronal hole sources relative to the observer at 1 AU, we are able to provide some insight into the identification of the solar sources of interplanetary disturbances. We present and discuss two definitions for angle locating the solar source of interplanetary disturbances at 1 AU.
We apply our results to the suggestion by Hewish (1988) that low-latitude coronal holes are suitably positioned to be the sources of major geomagnetic storms when the holes are in the eastern half of the solar hemisphere at the time of the commencement of the storm. Our results indicate that, for these cases, the streams emanating from within the hole must be very fast, greater than 1000 km s-1, or very wide, greater than 60-degrees, at the inner boundary of 18 solar radii in our simulation.

ID STABILIZED RADICALS; SYSTEMS
AB A method has been developed for estimating C-H bond dissociation energies at the edges of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons of arbitrary size. A series of reference molecules having well-established bond dissociation enthalpies are used to represent several types of dissociations. For each type, Huckel molecular orbital theory is used to calculate the pi-electron energy difference between reactant and product. This difference is then used to calculate relative bond dissociation enthalpies. Predictions are also made of C-H bond dissociation enthalpies at the perimeters of infinite graphite layers having several different edge structures. Energies depend principally on chemical structures near the bond of interest and little on overall molecular size. Along with available ionization energies, these results results also allow estimation of proton affinities at the edges of a layer of graphite. These proton affinities depend on both the chemical structures at the site of protonation and the overall molecular size.

AB Proton transfer between sterically hindered pyridines and amines proceeds through locked-rotor, low-entropy intermediates. The reactions exhibit slow kinetics (efficiencies of 0.1-0.0001) and large negative temperature coefficients (up to k = CT8.7). The rates become slower and the temperature dependencies steeper with increasing steric hindrance. The observations are reproduced by a multiple complex-switching RRKM model that allows several alternative complexes to be rate controlling: a series of loose complexes, a locked-rotor tight complex that occurs before the formation of a hydrogen-bonded complex, and a complex located at the central barrier. The rate-limiting transition state shifts from the loose to the tight and central-barrier complexes with increasing temperature. The model suggests that at elevated temperatures, above 1000 K, ion-molecule reactions will become slow even for unhindered, small reactants. Ion kinetics may then become similar to neutral radical kinetics.

ID MAGNETS; FIELDS
AB The magnetic fields of Superconducting Super Collider (SSC) dipole magnets change with time when the magnets are operated at constant current. The decay of the field is thought to be a consequence of flux creep in the Nb-Ti filaments in the superconducting cables. However, measured magnetic relaxation of small samples of SSC cable as a function of time is unlike the large decays that are observed in the fields of the actual magnets. We have made relaxation measurements on sample SSC conductors at 3.5 and 4.0 K after field cycling. The decay at both temperatures was 2.8% in 50 min. However, the relaxation measured after a temperature increase from 3.5 to 4.0 K was 4.8% to 50 min. A likely reason for the greater magnetization decay is that, after an increase in temperature, the Nb-Ti is in a supercritical state, with shielding currents flowing at a density greater than the new critical current density. This causes enhanced flux creep. We suggest that a small temperature rise during the operation of SSC magnets may contribute to the unexpectedly large magnetic field decay.

TI CHANGES IN THE REDOX STATE OF IRIDIUM OXIDE CLUSTERS AND THEIR RELATION
TO CATALYTIC WATER OXIDATION - RADIOLYTIC AND ELECTROCHEMICAL STUDIES
SO JOURNAL OF PHYSICAL CHEMISTRY
LA English
DT Article
ID OXYGEN EVOLUTION; AQUA IONS; FILMS; CELL
AB Radiolytically prepared iridium oxide (IrO(x).nH2O) clusters have been shown to catalyze the photochemical oxidation of water. These catalysts have been oxidized by radiolytic or electrochemical methods and the changes in their optical absorptions and redox states have been studied. The clusters contain four or five Ir atoms in a mixture of Ir(III) and Ir(IV) states, formally described as Ir3.2+. Time-resolved pulse-radiolytic studies revealed three processes in the subsecond time scale. The first step produces a short-lived intermediate (lambda-max approximately 360 nm), possibly an OH adduct, that is transformed to more stable oxidized species (lambda-max 340 and 580 nm). In the third step, there is a rise in the 580-nm absorption. The same species were observed in gamma-radiolysis and in spectroelectemical experiments. Cyclic voltammetric and coulometric measurements suggest that the initial IrO(x) cluster is oxidized in two stages, from Ir3.2+ to Ir3.8+ and then to Ir4+. Further oxidation of the cluster leads to oxidation of water to O2. The Ir4+ clusters decay within hours or days to regenerate IrO(x) clusters of lower oxidation state by secondary water oxidation. The kinetics of all the above processes are pH dependent and involve acid-base equilibria in the various oxidation states.

AB Reversible one-electron-transfer reactions involving the tryptophan cation and neutral radicals were investigated byh pulse radiolysis. The one-electron-reduction potential fo the neutral tryptophan radical at pH 7 was determined to be E7 = 1.01 +/- 0.03 V by using the bis(1,4,7-triazacyclononane)nickeld (III/II) redox couple with E = 0.95 V as a standard. The value obtained with promethazine (E = 0.98 V) as a standard at pH 6 was E6 = 1.11 V. From these measurements, a mean value E7 = 1.03 V results, in agreement with some earlier determinations (1.05 and 1.08 V) obtained in experiments with inorganic redox standards. The kietics and energetics of the reactions of the tryptophan neutral and cation radicals with selected electron donors were also investigated. The reactivity of the typtophan radical cation was found to be 1-2 orders of magnitude higher than that of the neutral radical. The lower reactivity of the neutral tryptophan radical is explained by the entropy loss due to protonation of the tryptophan anion, resulting from the changes in the solvation shell.

AB A linear expression, asymptotically correct near a solvent's critical point, is derived relating Henry's constant of a solute to the density of the pure solvent. Since the expression is general (i.e. not restricted to the solvent's saturation curve), it may be differentiated to yield other infinite-dilution thermodynamic properties such as partial molar volumes. This enables these properties for a solute to be predicted from a single fit of the Henry's constant expression to solubility data. Such predictions are compared with published measurements of apparent molar volumes and apparent molar heat capacities for aqueous argon, xenon, and ethylene. The volumes are predicted well over a wide range of conditions including the region near water's critical point, where large effects are observed. Agreement with heat capacity data is only qualitative; we show that this may be in part a consequence of a higher order term in the asymptotic expression that becomes important after two differentiations. The divergent behavior of the infinite-dilution properties near the critical point is determined by divergences in pure-solvent properties; the only solute dependence is in the amplitude of the divergence, which is proportional to the slope of the Henry's constant expression. While the experimental Henry's constant data yield a very large linear region, it now appears that the slope in this region is not the true asymptotic slope. Nevertheless, it appears that predictions of infinite-dilution thermodynamic properties based on Henry's constants are adequate over a wide range of conditions.

ID COMPUTER-SIMULATION
AB Computer simulations, based on molecular dynamics, were used to investigate the kinetic stability of model polymers as a function of temperature, secondary structure, and molecular weight. The rate constants for random scission of the carbon-carbon bonds were obtained from simulations starting from both planar zigzag and coiled conformations. The coiled polymers were found to be more stable than planar zigzag polymers with the same primary structure. The computer-generated rates correlated reasonably well with the functional predictions of the Rice, Ramsperger, and Kassel theory of unimolecular reactivity; however, deviations were observed for some of the short-chained polymers. Computer movies revealed pronounced coiling in the vicinity of dissociating bonds. This behavior was examined in light of proposed mechanisms for intramolecular hydrogen transfer.

AB The spinodal decomposition of a hydrogen-bonded binary blend, which consists of a polystyrene with 1.5 mol % of p-(1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-hydroxyisopropyl)-a-methylstyrene comonomer and a poly(butyl methacrylate), has been studied. This system has a LCST with a very asymmetrical phase diagram. Also the critical point does not coincide with the temperature minimum of either the spinodal or the cloud-point curve. The kinetics follows the Cahn-Hilliard-Cook model for early spinodal decomposition and a self-similar mechanism for late-stage coarsening for most cases. For shallow quench cases and for close to glass transition temperature cases, double peaks have been observed during spinodal decomposition, which suggests that a second or an alternative relaxation mechanism may be dominating the coarsening process. A special procedure has been developed to measure the cloud point for this system, which should be applicable to any polymer blend system that has a cloud temperature close to the glass transition temperature.

AB We discuss the possibility that different realms of physics are described by distinct quantization constants. From the consistency of existing data, we infer limits on the differences between hypothetically distinct quantization constants for different elementary particles. Since the existence of multiple Planck constants implies violations of space-time symmetries, these limits may be viewed as precise tests of fundamental conservation laws, including the conservation of linear momentum and energy.

AB preventing the establishment of long-lived "tunnel" networks of hot rarefied gas. remnants (SNRs). We have developed a computer stimulation that uses standard SNR evolutionary solutions to redistribute mass and energy throughout a rectangular, three-level grid. This model includes bremsstrahlung or metal cooling, creation and evaporation of clouds, mass injection to and return from a galactic halo, multiple correlated SNRs, and internally determined SNR lifetimes; we neglected magnetic fields and cooling by dust. We have confirmed the suspicion that spatial correlation of supernova sites can increase the global evolution rate of the metal-cooled ISM. Porosity theory is unable to predict the topology of the interstellar medium because it does not account for mass transport, averaging 0.007 M. pc-2 Myr-1 and 2 M. pc-2 into the halo. In "primeval" (zero metal abundance) galaxies, the enhanced mass transport by bremsstrahlung-cooled remnants continually agitates the ISM, preventing the establishment of long-lived "tunnel" networks of hot rarefied gas.
One cannot use the simple SNR number-radius relation to infer evolutionary histories, because of its implicit assumptions of a homogeneous mass density and constant SNR lifetimes; a simple N(R) histogram conveys more information. If SNR shells are the main source of cold clouds in present-day galaxies, the initial size of the clouds can determine the global structure of the ISM. With small clouds (<< 1 pc) that are easily evaporated, less than 25% of interstellar material will be "locked up" in atomic hydrogen, leaving most of the material in a warm or hot phase at high pressure. If the created clouds are of the more usually assumed size (approximately 1 pc), about 70% of the disk mass will remain in cold, cloudy state, and the pressure assumes more conventional interstellar values.

AB Results from measurements of emission of nitrogen oxides from soils at three North American ecosystems are presented. These measurements were conducted during the summer and fall of 1988 at (1) a grassland site near Nunn, Colorado, (2) a coastal marine environment at North Inlet, South Carolina and (3) a deciduous forest near Oak Ridge, Tennessee. Emission of NO was highest from the grassland soil (mean: 10.0 ng N m-2s-1), intermediate at the forest area (mean: 0.28 ng N m-2s-1) and lowest at the coastal site (mean: 0.034 ng N m-2s-1). A comparison of the results from the present study with previous measurements indicates that NO(x) (NO + NO2) emission from grasslands and temperate forests are similar within each ecosystem independent of location. This suggests that simple approaches may be used to estimate soil emissions over wide areas.

These gratings are associated with a thermally induced change in the local glass structure at the site of the Eu3+ ions, leading to a double-minimum potential well for the electronic energy levels of the Eu3+ ions. The effects on the characteristics of the permanent laser-induced gratings produced by changing the divalent modifier ions of the glass host are reported and a theoretical model is presented to explain the physical origin of the change in the refractive index of the material.

Of particular interest are three vibrational components of the resulting CO2+ C approximately 2-SIGMA-g+ state-the allowed (000) and (100) bands and the forbidden (101) band. The wavelength dependence of the beta parameter for the forbidden band deviated significantly from that of the two allowed bands, showing instead a strong resemblance to that of the B approxiately 2-SIGMA-u+ state. This behaviour suggests that vibronic coupling to the B approximately 2-SIGMA-u+ state the responsible for the appearance of the (101) band in the C approximately 2-SIGMA-g+ state photoelectron spectrum.

ID EL-NINO; ATLANTIC; VARIABILITY
AB In this note we compare mean seasonal cycles of zonal and meridional velocity in the Pacific South Equatorial Current based on current meter mooring data, drifting buoy data, and ship drift data. Monthly averages of ship drift and drifting buoy data were computed over 2-degrees latitude by 10-degrees longitude rectangles centered at the positions of multiyear current meter moorings near 0-degrees, 110-degrees-W, and 0-degrees, 140-degrees-W. All three representations of the flow field show the basic character of the annual mean and its variations, provided that the sampling characteristics associated with each measurement technique are taken into account. In particular we find that more than 15 days of drifter data (regardless of year) are required on a 2-degrees latitude by 10-degrees longitude basis to produce monthly mean estimates that agree with moored estimates to within about 5-10 cm s-1 rms. We also infer that windage affects climatological monthly mean ship drift velocities, although uncertainties in the data limit a precise determination of the windage magnitude. An upper bound appears to be about 3% of the surface wind speed, though the actual effect of windage may be considerably smaller.

AB Th-234 activity profiles in Puget Sound have been studied using a model that incorporates reversible exchanges between dissolved, fine particulate, and macroaggregate Th reservoirs. Macroaggregate settling is made responsible for the downward flux of Th and the vertical gradients of activity in measured profiles. Least squares fits of model to data yield rates/time scales for the exchange processes involved. Fine-particle scavenging by macroaggregates is found to occur with a time scale of 4-6 days over a large range of macroaggregate settling speeds, w(s). Macroaggregate-disaggregation time scales are 1-4 days when w(s) is 100 m/d. Rates of sorption and remobilization characterizing the exchange between dissolved and fine-particulate forms of the isotope cannot be individually identified from these data, but acceptable model values include those measured in the laboratory. Rates of sorption that depend on particulate concentrations which increase to the seafloor result in profiles of dissolved Th having above-bottom maxima. Based on inferred exchange rates, the residence time for fine particles introduced at the surface of this deep (approximately 200 m) estuary is estimated to be 11-16 days when w(s) = 100 m/d.

ID ICE NUCLEATION; CONDENSATION; COALESCENCE; CLOUDS
AB The development of precipitation in the top of an isolated maritime cumulus tower is traced by four rapid penetrations with an instrumented aircraft between 400 and 1000 m below the visible top of the growing tower. The hydrometeor distribution evolves from the first appearance of a few large supercooled drops [0.45 l-1, D > 0.5 mm] to well developed precipitation (largely ice) in 500 s. This development results from accretion and coalescence growth in the cloud top volume, not from advection by the updraft of large drops from below. Large supercooled drops precede the appearance of ice at -9-degrees-C near the cloud top. The cloud- and precipitation-water budgets are computed and compared with observed values, which indicate that, once precipitation is well developed, the convective tower cannot maintain itself as a steady state entity. The budget computations demonstrate a sensitvity of cloud evolution to the ice particle density.

AB Populations of 3p2 1D2, 3P1, 3P2 levels in Si-like Cu, Zn, Ge, and Se ions have been deduced from the measurements of absolute intensities of magnetic dipole transitions within the 3s(2)3p2 ground configuration. Observations have been made in the Texas Experimental Tokamak (TEXT). The measured population ratios are compared with theoretical calculations based on the distorted-wave approximation for the electron collisions and a semiclassical approximation for the proton collisions. The observed deviation from the statistical distribution for the excited-level populations within the ground configuration along the silicon isoelectronic sequence is in agreement with theoretical prediction.

AB Investigations on the lattice dynamics of muscovite and vermiculite have been carried out by inelastic neutron scattering and Raman scattering. In the neutron measurements, dispersion curves for the out-of-plane and in-plane LA and TA phonons were fully obtained for muscovite, while more limited data were obtained for Mg vermiculite. Sound velocities were estimated from the slopes of the dispersion curves. Raman-scattering experiments revealed an interlayer shearing mode in Na and Sr vermiculites in the O-water-layer hydration state. The intercalated water molecules in Na and Sr vermiculites exhibited a broad Raman feature (OH stretching vibrations) at 3450 cm-1 with a full width at half maximum of approximately 300 cm-1. In addition, relatively sharp Raman peaks from the inner-layer hydroxyls in the host octahedral layers were found at approximately 3700 cm-1. These peaks were sensitive to the hydration state or charge in the intercalated layer.

ID HETEROJUNCTION BIPOLAR-TRANSISTORS; ABSORPTION FINE-STRUCTURE; ALLOYS
AB The combined techniques of x-ray-absorption fine structure and x-ray diffraction have been used to study the strain and bond distortions in epitaxial Ge-Si on Si(001). In a 31% Ge, 340-angstrom pseudomorphic Ge-Si film, the Ge-Ge and Ge-Si first-neighbor bond lengths have been found to be 2.44 +/- 0.02 and 2.38 +/0 0.02 angstrom, respectively. The lattice parameter perpendicular to the Ge-Si/Si(001) interface has been found to be alpha-perpendicular-to = 5.552 +/- 0.002 angstrom, in agreement with the predictions of macroscopic elastic theory. These results show that the bond-length strain in the epitaxial layer appears in the second and higher coordination shells, rather than in the nearest-neighbor bond lengths, which remain the same as in unstrained Ge-Si. A microscopic model is presented that accounts for these findings.

In addition, the influence of the stationary phase on steroid retention and selectivity was studied for a number of monomeric and polymeric C-18 columns and beta-cyclodextrin columns. The selectivity of a polymeric C-18 phase toward various androstane standards was similar to that for a liquid crystal phase used in supercritical fluid chromatography.

AB We compare observed Pioneer Venus orbiter (PVO) gravity profiles over Aphrodite Terra to profiles predicted from models of thermal isostasy, mantle convection, and Airy compensation. Similar approaches are used in order to investigate how well the models can be distinguished with the PVO data. Topography profiles across Aphrodite are compared to model spreading ridge profiles in order to further assess this model. Airy compensation depths and convection layer thicknesses are greater under eastern Aphrodite than western Aphrodite. Compensation depths in the east are greater than most estimates of lithospheric thickness, suggesting that this part of the ridge is dynamically supported. In parts of western Aphrodite, the spreading ridge model gravity provides a better fit to the data than either Airy compensation or mantle convection. Best-fit spreading rates are between 0.3 and 1.6 cm/yr. Airy compensation and mantle convection cannot be distinguished in most places using only PVO data.

AB Time-resolved small-angle neutron scattering (SANS) experiments were performed to study the later stage (i.e., the intermediate stage and the late stage) of spinodal decomposition (SD) of a critical mixture of perdeuterated polybutadiene (DPB) and protonated polyisoprene (HPI) with an LCST-type phase diagram and a critical temperature T(c) = 36.1-degrees-C. Time-sliced SANS intensity, S(q,t), is generally composed of the scattering due to growing domains, I(d)(q,t), and that due to the thermally induced local composition fluctuations inside the domain I(T)(q,t) where q and t are the scattering vector and time, respectively. S(q,t) as a function of q shows the "spatial crossover" such that at q much below and above a time-dependent wavenumber, q(s)(t), it depends only on I(d)(q,t) and I(T)(q,t), respectively. The time evolution of the composition difference between the two coexisting domains, DELTA-PHI(t), was determined from I(T)(q,t), which was found to be consistent with the prediction of the scattering theory based upon the random-phase approximation. DELTA-PHI(t) was found to increase with t and reach a constant equilibrium value DELTA-PHI-e at t > t(cr), where t(cr) is the crossover time from the intermediate to the late-stage SD. The crossover wavenumber, q(s)(t), also underwent a characteristic change at t(cr).

SO JOURNAL OF THE AMERICAN CHEMICAL SOCIETY

DT Article
ID GAS-PHASE; ABINITIO CALCULATIONS; ION SOLVATION; ENERGIES
AB Hydrogen bond energies and geometric structures of several symmetric and asymmetric formic acid-formate anion dimer complexes have been determined. Ab initio gradient optimization at the self-consistent field (SCF) level in a double-zeta + polarization + diffuse Gaussian function basis set was followed by a series of second-order Moller-Plesset (MP2) single-point calculations for the lowest energy structures. The equilibrium asymmetric dimer with the (anti) formic acid-(syn) formate anion conformation has the highest binding energy on both the SCF and MP2 levels at 28.8 and 33.0 kcal/mol, respectively. Experimentally, a gas-phase DELTA-H-degrees D value of 36.8 kcal/mol has been reported for the biformate anion (Meot-Ner, M.; Sieck, L. W. J. Am. Chem. Soc. 1986, 108, 7525). The calculated stability of this anti dimer includes a C-H...O interaction that is estimated to contribute approximately 2.4 (SCF) or approximately 1.8 (MP2) kcal/mol to the dimer binding energy. The corresponding proton-transferred (syn) formic acid-(anti) formate anion complex is calculated less stable by 5.6 (SCF) or 3.7 (MP2) kcal/mol, even though in the isolated monomer syn-formic acid is the lower energy conformer by 5.8 (SCF) or 5.4 (MP2) kcal/mol in the same basis set. The greater stability of the anti dimer can be attributed both to less interfragment exchange repulsion and to more coulomb attraction compared with the syn dimer conformation. The optimized proton transfer curve as a function of one O-H distance shows a (syn dimer) inflection point and an (anti dimer) minimum, while the MP2 curve shows only a single (anti dimer) minimum. However, the proton transfer energy profiles for a series of fixed R(O...O) distances in the strong H-bond region each show two minima, with the anti dimer always lower in energy, except at R(min) where the minima merge. Two equilibrium symmetric (C2h) structures were also found higher in energy than the asymmetric anti dimer; an anti-anticonformer by 4.1 (SCF) or approximately 1.0 (MP2) kcal/mol, and a syn-syn conformation by 7.1 (SCF) or 3.8 (MP2) kcal/mol. Experimentally, both symmetric type conformers and both the asymmetric syn-syn and (syn) formic acid-(anti) formate anion type dimers have been observed in bicarboxylic acid crystal structures. Comparison of bond lengths and angles between calculated and observed structures for the respective conformation shows very good agreement. The existence of all these conformer combinations experimentally and the small energy differences calculated between them theoretically show the sensitivity of the specific conformation of this strong H-bond system to molecular structure, environment, and level of theoretical treatment.

TI RATE-CONSTANT FUNCTIONS FOR STRENGTH DEVELOPMENT OF CONCRETE
SO ACI MATERIALS JOURNAL

DT Article
DE CONCRETES; CONSTRUCTION; EQUIVALENT-AGE; MATURITY; MODELS; MORTARS
(MATERIAL); RATE CONSTANT; STRENGTH; TEMPERATURE
AB The rate constant for strength development of a particular concrete mixture is the initial slope of the relative strength-versus-age curve at constant temperature curing. The form of the rate constant versus temperature function is needed to describe the combined effects of time and temperature on strength development. This study investigates the relationship between the rate constant and curing temperature. Based on strength gain data for concrete and mortar specimens made with Type I cement and cured at 10, 23, and 40 C (50, 73, and 104 F), the following conclusions are drawn: (1) strength gain can be represented by a three-parameter hyperbolic function; (2) the rate constant is a nonlinear function of curing temperature and a simple exponential function describes this relationship; (3) tests of appropriate mortar specimens provide the information needed to predict relative strength development of the corresponding concrete; and (4) the proposed rate constant model accurately describes the development of relative strength as a function of the equivalent age.

AB There are several reasons for isolating subpopulations of living cells, including biochemical study, product analysis in non-clonogenic cells, selection of fused cells, isolation of rare cell types for cloning, preparation of pure cells for transplantation, and bioreactor maintenance. Methods for separating cells include flow sorting, sedimentation, biphasic extraction, field-flow fractionation, affinity methods, magnetically enhanced affinity methods, and electrophoresis. Each method can be considered in terms of its resolution, purity, gentleness, convenience and cost. Recent advances in each of these methods improves its utility in routine cell-separation practice and its potential for scale-up.

AB In the electrophoretic separation of macromolecules, resolution, purity and yield establish the merits of a separation method. In the separation of living cells by electrophoresis, additional significant criteria include viability, capacity, convenience and cost, as the method must also be acceptable to cell biologists, nondestructive to living cells and in free solution. These demands lead to the following quantitative characteristics of methods of cell electrophoresis: separation (resolution), purity, capacity, product viability, convenience and capital cost. Thirteen different methods of electrophoretic cell separation were compared on the basis of these six criteria using a relative scale of 0 to 4. The methods compared were free zone electrophoresis, density gradient electrophoresis, ascending vertical electrophoresis, re-orienting density gradient electrophoresis, free-flow electrophoresis, agarose sol electrophoresis, low-gravity electrophoresis, continuous flow low-gravity electrophoresis, rotating annular electrophoresis, density-gradient isoelectric focusing, free flow isoelectric focusing, stable flow free boundary electrophoresis, and continuous magnetic belt electrophoresis. In each case the sum of the six scores provides an overall "figure of merit"; however, no method rates a perfect score of 24. While quantitative trade-offs, such as resolution for capacity and vice versa, impose technical limitations on each method, lack of convenience is one of the most significant factors in the failure of cell electrophoresis to become a widely popular method.

ID SAMPLE PREPARATION; REFERENCE VALUES; HEALTH
AB Biological Trace Element Research (BTER) is a multidisciplinary science and directing research in this field requires a combination of both biological insight and analytical awareness. Quite frequently, the complexities involved here necessitate the use of a variety of scientific talents and a combination of several analytical techniques. For example, some of the special difficulties can be visualized in meeting the requirements of a "total" quality control in the overall context of a BTER investigation. These include experimental design, collection of biologically and analytically "valid" samples, the ability to carry out accurate analytical measurements on those specimens, and a proper evaluation of the analytical data (including data interpretation). Therefore, it follows that a team approach ensuring the required multidisciplinary interactions is a crucial component in any BTER endeavor.

DT Review
AB Chemometrics as a discipline blends modern mathematical and statistical techniques with chemical knowledge for the design, control, and evaluation of chemical measurements. For complex systems, such as those involving biomedical trace element research, the multidisciplinary efforts toward problem formulation and measurement process design and evaluation can be substantially aided by exploratory chemometric approaches. Following a brief overview of potential chemometrics contributions primary attention is given to exploratory multivariate data analysis techniques, which can capture the essence of a complex data set in a few, visualizable dimensions. Such techniques are appropriate because nuclear-related measurements, quality control samples and data, global dietary intakes, and biological compositions all comprise multiple chemical species, frequently exhibiting correlated behavior. Applications of some of the more powerful techniques, such as principal component factor analysis, are illustrated by multivariable interlaboratory quality control, assessment of pollutant origins, and exploration of daily dietary intake data.

AB While there have been a number of excellent studies correlating the effects of trace element concentrations in biomaterials with a number of diseases and other health related processes, the inconsistencies of quantitative analytical data still limit progress. It is suggested that a well integrated system of laboratories that is dedicated to analytical chemistry quality assurance can provide an interlaboratory structure that will improve the quality of the measurements. Quantitative measurement of the elemental-bound compound appears to be greatly needed, and significant effort needs to be expended in this most difficult area. Progress can be greatly enhanced by including the analytical chemist in the biomedical research team.

TI TRACE-ELEMENTS ASSOCIATED WITH PROTEINS - NEUTRON-ACTIVATION ANALYSIS
COMBINED WITH BIOLOGICAL ISOLATION TECHNIQUES
SO ACS SYMPOSIUM SERIES
LA English
DT Review
AB Combinations of biological techniques with neutron activation analysis (NAA) can be employed for protein quantification in biological samples. A protein of interest can be isolated physically by a high resolution separation technique such as polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis (PAGE) or by an immunochemical technique, such as a specific antibody-antigen reaction. NAA is then used for quantification of the isolated protein by determining either an element that is structurally intrinsic, or one that has been introduced as a label. An example of the first method is the determination of phosphoproteins by PAGE-NAA. This method is discussed and results for two phosphoproteins, alpha-casein and phosvitin, are presented for several materials, including an alpha-casein concentration of 26 mg/mL in low-fat milk. The second method presented is an immunoassay with a colloidal gold tag and detection by NAA.

AB The paper develops the rationale for coordination of Earth observation missions among national and regional agencies to overcome resource limitations, avoid duplication of effort, and make a significant contribution to global change monitoring and assessment. A global Earth observing system must involve all agencies with programmatic and funding responsibility and must be responsive both to scientific inputs and user needs. The paper briefly examines the objectives, current activities, and the linkages among existing Earth observation coordination groups. It advocates the need for a more effective forum for developing consensus across the whole spectrum of Earth and environmental observations satellite missions and proposes the strengthening of the Committee on Earth Observations Satellites (CEOS), a coordination group created as a result of the Group of Seven Economic Summit's Panel of Experts on Remote Sensing from Space. CEOS should be restructured to include representation of international scientific and intergovernmental user organizations and should develop formal linkages to other existing satellite coordination groups. A revitalized CEOS should focus on collaboration in the development and operation of research and operational missions, the sharing of data to assist in global change decision-making, and the construction of international data networks to facilitate global change data management.

AB Mean turbulence statistics obtained within and above a deciduous forest are used to examine the components in the budget equations for turbulent kinetic energy (TKE) and tangential shear stress. Comparisons from the measurements are made with predictions from a higher-order closure model for canopy flow. Wake-generated turbulence was found to exceed shear-produced turbulence in all but the upper level of the canopy. Beneath the tree crowns, turbulent transport was the dominant source of TKE and tangential shear stress. Below approximately 75% of the canopy height, the magnitude of all the TKE and shear stress budget components is small compared with values above this height, and the vertical gradients of second-and third-order moments are small. The turbulence statistics observed within the deciduous forest are remarkably similar to that observed within a tropical forest, which has a similar distribution of leaf area. When compared with results from experiments conducted in other canopies, the importance of the quantity and vertical distribution of the plant area in determining the turbulence structure is reinforced.

ID NETWORKS
AB Experimental identification of dynamic behavior in linear structural systems can be achieved by exciting the structure with a specifically synthesized pulse, and reconstructing the relevant dynamic Green's function by deconvolution of the measured response. The reconstruction procedure involves the solution of an ill-posed integral equation in the presence of noise. This paper underlines the rich variety of infinitely divisible pulse shapes that may be used while still retaining a tractable deconvolution problem. Flexibility in pulse shape is necessary to allow for possible perturbations caused by interfacing devices that convert electrical voltages into mechanical forces. A numerical experiment, using synthetic noisy data, shows that the reconstruction procedure remains effective even when the probe waveform deviates strongly from the preferred unimodal shape. A dispersive structural netweork that may be representative of a large space structure is used as an illustrative example.

By using styli with tip widths between 0.05 and 0.15-mu-m, a stylus load of 0.6-1.2 X 10(-6)-N (0.06-0.12-mgf), and a piezostage for lateral displacement, we detected 0.05-0.15-mu-m lateral resolution on the surfaces of different kinds of specimens. To get a high lateral resolution, the most important consideration is a fine stylus with small tip size.

AB We present a simple analytic solution for the condition of constructive interference for light transmitted through an interferometer incorporating three ideally transparent layers of arbitrary thickness and refractive index. We also consider the effect of adding two metallic coatings to the outer surfaces of the interferometer and give empirical expressions for the associated phase changes for silver coatings on silica, sapphire, and mica substrates. A particular application to fringes of equal chromatic order can be utilized to obtain precise measurements of the thickness of extremely thin films sandwiched between two substrates.

AB There is a high correlation between molecular surface area (TSA) of triorganotin and triorganolead compounds and their toxicity towards a bacterium (Escherichia coli) and an alga (Selenastrum capricornutum). Parallel attempts to correlate other Group IVA organometals incorporating silicon or germanium were unsuccessful. It was further demonstrated, however, that a high correlation was obtainable between certain series of compounds with the same organic substituent but different metal centers involving all Group IVA elements. In both instances, the inability to obtain a quantitative structure-activity relationship (QSAR) for all systems studied appears to be a function of the solubility of the compounds. While organotin TSA values have been found to correlate well with their toxicities toward various organisms, this study clearly suggests that this type of QSAR can be readily extended to include other organometal systems, provided that there is no solubility problem and the toxicity is a function of the hydrophobicity of the organometal compounds.

AB Free radicals produced in chicken bone tissue by Cs-137 gamma-rays were measured using electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy. The yield of radicals was found to be proportional to the absorbed dose. Additive re-irradiation of previously irradiated bones is the basis of a method to estimate the absorbed dose in radiation-processed foods. The ability of the method to provide accurate dose assessments for a range of doses (0.5-7.4 kGy) is tested here. A linear fit to the data yields reasonable dose estimates for bone irradiated < 2 kGy, but fails at the higher doses using a linear approximation to the dose response. These data and their implications are discussed.

Additive re-irradiation of the bone produces a reproducible dose response function which can be used to evaluate the initial dose by back-extrapolation. It was found that an exponential fit (vs linear or polynomial) to the data provides improved accuracy of the estimated dose. These data as well as the protocol for the additive dose method are presented.

AB Rhenium-186 has been standardized for activity by the CIEMAT/NIST method of 4-pi-beta-liquid-scintillation efficiency tracing with tritium, with an uncertainty (equivalent to 1 SD) of 1.61%. Half-life measurements with a pressurized ionization chamber give a T1/2 = 89.25 +/- 0.07 h. Photon emission rates were measured with semiconductor detectors, and the probability of emission of the principal gamma-ray at 137 keV was found to be P7 = 0.0945 +/- 0.0016.

AB After a brief review of differences between the scattering cross sections for electrons and positrons, results are presented on the transmission and reflection of these particles by foils. These results were obtained with the Monte Carlo code ETRAN, which takes into account positron-electron differences of stopping powers and elastic-scattering cross sections. The principal output of the calculations consists of number and energy transmission and reflection coefficients for electrons and positrons. A few results are also shown pertaining to differences of energy spectra and angular distributions of positrons and electrons reflected from thick foils. The calculated transmission coefficients for positrons are greater, and the reflection coefficients smaller, than those for electrons of the same energy. These results are in qualitative agreement with experimental data, but the quantitative agreement is not very close.

AB We present radio-continuum observations made at 2 and/or 6 cm of 26 cool stars (F0 and later), including 10 F-K main-sequence stars and 16 F-M giant and supergiant stars. The data were obtained as part of several Very Large Array2 observing programs. 22 of the observed stars were not detected as sources and have typical 3-sigma upper limits of approximately 0.35 mJy at 2 cm and approximately 0.15-0.60 mJy at 6 cm. The failure to detect any of the F-K dwarf stars reconfirms that such stars have intrinsically weak (log L(v) < 13-14 at 6 cm) radio emission, even if they have rotational periods and/or x-ray luminosities that are similar to those of the (radio detected) RS CVn binary systems. The evolved stars that were detected as radio sources include two M giants (g Her and R Lyr) and the infrared carbon star IRC + 10216. The results of this program when combined with those of our previous studies suggest the existence of a discontinuity in the average ionization fractions of the winds of red giants that occurs at about a spectral type of M6 III. This is also the point at which significant dust formation is observed in red giants. Giants earlier than M6 have f(ion) approximately 10(-2), while cooler giants have f(ion) less-than-or-equal-to 10(-4). The radio source associated with IRC + 10216 may be partially resolved at 2 cm; the brightness temperature at 2 cm, assuming that this is the case, is 1920 K. If the source is in fact unresolved, then the "true" brightness temperature must be greater than this. We discuss alternate models for the 2 and 6 cm radio emission of IRC + 10216 and conclude that the 6 cm emission is consistent with free-free emission from an expanding, partially ionized (f(ion) less-than-or-equal-to 10(-4) wind with an ionized mass loss rate of approximately 3 X 10(-9) M- yr-1.

AB Daily collections of aerosols have been made at a site in southeast England over a 1 year period and the samples analyzed for 13 components including soot carbon, major anions, some major cations and five trace metals (Pb, Cd, Zn, Mn and Ni). The results are consistent with other more limited studies in the southern North Sea and can be used to tentatively identify primary and secondary sources for the components of the aerosol. Elemental ratios for some components derived from anthropogenic sources vary slightly depending on the source region over which the air has recently travelled. Classification of the samples by back trajectory analysis shows that for all components, except those derived from seawater, concentrations are highest in air arriving from the east. This observation is discussed in terms of meteorological control on the transport and deposition of aerosols. Specifically, high pressure over Europe allows the accumulation of pollutants through reduced atmospheric dispersion and limited removal by precipitation. Subsequent long-range transport results in high concentrations of aerosols at the sampling site. By contrast, transport from the west is associated with efficient dispersal and removal processes.

AB A paired comparison was performed on 2 years of precipitation chemistry data from Meridian and Newton, MS. The Meridian site is in violation of several National Atmospheric Deposition Program siting criteria, whereas the Newton site, 35 km west, is mostly in compliance. The two sites are compared through the use of volume-weighted means, deposition, logarithmic distributions, boxplots, paired t-tests, the nonparametric Wilcoxon test, and a form of linear regression analysis that accounts for cases in which both populations are subject to error. Results indicate Meridian has higher concentrations of all measured ions except NH4+. Elevated NH4+ concentrations at Newton are most likely due to the location of the site in a cattle pasture. Significant differences (95% confidence level) were found for Cl-, Na+, K+, Ca2+ and Mg2+ . SO42- was found to be borderline significant.

AB Meteorological and chemical conditions during the July 1988 Bermuda-area sampling appear to have been favorable for conversion of sulfur gases to particulate excess sulfate (XSO4). Observed average XSO4 and SO2 concentrations of 11 and 2.1 nmol m-3, respectively, at 15 m a.s.l. in the marine boundary layer (MBL) upwind of Bermuda, indicate that conversion of SO2 to XSO4, over and above homogeneous conversion, may be necessary to explain the > 5.0 average molar ratio of XSO4 to SO2. Given an observed cloud cover of < 15% over the region and the < 3 nmol m-3 SO2 concentrations observed by aircraft, heterogeneous conversion mechanisms, in addition to cloud conversion of SO2, are necessary to explain the observed 11 nmol XSO4 m-3.
Aerosol water content, estimated as a function of particle size distribution plus consideration of SO2 mass transfer for the observed particle size distribution, shows that SO2 was rapidly transferred to the sea-salt aerosol particles. Assuming that aqueous-phase SO2 reaction kinetics within the high pH sea-salt aerosol water are controlled by O3 oxidation, and considering mass-transfer limitations, SO2 conversion to XSO4 in the sea-salt aerosol water occurred at rates of approximately 5% h-1 under the low SO2 concentration, Bermuda-area sampling conditions. All of the 2 nmol XSO4 m-3 associated with sea-salt aerosol particles during low-wind-speed, Bermuda-area sampling can be explained by this conversion mechanism. Higher wind speed, greater aerosol water content and higher SO2 concentration conditions over the North Atlantic are estimated to generate more than 4 nmol XSO4 m-3 by heterogeneous conversion of SO2 in sea-salt aerosol particles.

AB A photochemical computer model was used to simulate production and removal of S-containing species in the remote marine atmosphere. The results of aircraft and shipboard trace gas and aerosol measurements, performed during the 1988 Coordinated Air-Sea Experiment/Western Atlantic Ocean Experiment (CASE/WATOX) were used for the model input. The modeling revealed that homogeneous oxidation can not explain the existence of excess sulfate on large particles. Thus, it must be supplemented by an additional process in order to obtain a balance between sources and sinks of sulfur species. A proposed heterogeneous pathway consisting of SO2 condensation on and oxidation in aerosol particles was tested. With the addition of the heterogeneous processes, and assuming that the rate-determining step is condensation of SO2 on large particles by molecular diffusion, it was possible to simulate the experimentally observed concentrations of all sulfur species. Results show that the upper limit for rate constants (dictated by diffusion theory) was 50-1500 times larger than the rate constants used in the model for the condensation process. The balance between sources and sinks, using this model, requires that nearly 60% of the observed oxidation should occur via the heterogeneous channel at a rate of about 0.015 h-1. The 24h average homogeneous rate was approximately 0.01 h-1.

DT Article
DE ATMOSPHERIC TRANSPORT; TRAJECTORY; FORECAST
AB An experiment is described in which a trajectory forecast model was used in real-time to estimate the transport of debris associated with a large chemical explosion in the south-western U.S. The forecast trajectories were used to vector sampling aircraft into a position favorable for intersecting the debris cloud. The forecasts are evaluated and compared with three independent measures of debris transport: diagnostic trajectories calculated after the experiment using observed wind fields; transport of a tracer balloon; and aircraft measurements of the debris cloud.
Trajectory forecasts originating as early as 39 h before the explosion successfully predicted the downwind atmospheric drift pathway of the cloud. The forecast trajectories agreed well with diagnostic trajectories, confirming the high quality of the meteorological forecast data upon which the trajectories are based. The forecast trajectories also proved skilful in predicting real-time atmospheric motion at short notice. The results support our conclusion that forecast trajectory models are valuable tools for vectoring sampling aircraft in long-range atmospheric dispersion experiments and operations. These models should prove useful in the future when real-time estimates of atmospheric transport are needed.

AB A new nephelometer suitable for aircraft measurements of aerosol scattering extinction coefficient (sigma-sp) has been constructed and operated under field conditions. This instrument is vacuum tight for operation in a pressurized aircraft cabin and is capable of measuring background tropospheric sigma-sp at an averaging time of 1 min. For example, in a typical atmospheric profile the instrument can measure values of about 10(-4) m-1 with a time resolution of 2 s in a polluted region, and about 10(-7) m-1 with a time resolution of 1 min in a clean region. This sensitivity is made possible by: (1) subtracting in real time the air Rayleigh scattering from the total scattering signal by continuously measuring pressure and temperature in the sampling volume of the instrument; (2) correcting for the dark count and sensitivity of the photomultipliers using a rotating shutter; and (3) using a beam splitter arrangement to allow simultaneous detection by three photomultipliers. A laboratory measurement of instrument noise suggests a 550-nm noise level of about 5 x 10(-8) m-1 at an averaging time of 1 min.

AB An intercomparison that involved a standards intercomparison, interferant spiking tests and simultaneous ambient measurements was carried out between two CO measurement systems: a tunable diode laser absorption spectrometer (TDLAS) and a gas filter correlation, non-dispersive infrared absorption instrument (GFC). Both the TDLAS and the GFC techniques responded to CO. No major interferences were found for the TDLAS system; tested species included H2O, O3 and OCS. The GFC instrument exhibited no interference from H2O or O3, but only a relatively high upper limit could be placed on the O3 interference. For CO measurements in ambient air at levels from 100 to 1500 ppbv, the results from the two instruments agreed within their combined uncertainties. On average the GFC technique was 6% higher than the TDLAS system, and there was no systematic, constant offset. The precision of the GFC instrument was about 10%, and the precision of the TDLAS system was better than 4%.

DE FILTERPACKS; DRY DEPOSITION; HNO3 MEASUREMENTS; SO2 MEASUREMENTS
ID ACID; SO2
AB A simple filterpack system and a supporting meterological and surface-condition monitoring system have been deployed in a trial network to test methods by which dry deposition rates can be estimated on a routine basis, using average air concentration data and site-specific deposition velocities. The filterpack used in this dry deposition inferential measurement (DDIM) sampler differs from standard filterpacks by the use of a heated horizontal settling tube at the inlet. This modification is intended to protect the SO2 sampling system from adverse effects associated with filter liquefaction at high humidities, while at the same time providing a simple means for eliminating large particles from the sampled air. Tests indicate that the sampler works well for SO2 and for particulate species, and that HNO3 concentrations are underestimated by about 25%. The DDIM approach differs from previous network measurement programs in that the data sets are designed to permit extension from observations at a subset of research sites to less intensive routine measurement sites. Hence a major goal is the definition of a suitable set of supporting data from which dry deposition rates can be inferred using air concentration data. Local vegetation characteristics are noted. At present, the additional variables that are monitored are solar radiation, wind speed, wind direction standard deviation, temperature, humidity, surface wetness, and precipitation. Observers report changes in the surrounding surface, such as the presence of snow or unusual drought.

AB Since the autumn of 1984, a dry deposition research network has been operated to develop and refine methods to make defensible estimates of dry deposition rates of SO2, sulfate and nitrate (particulate and gaseous) on a routine basis. Ten of the sites are located in the eastern part of the U.S. while two are located in the western half. Annual dry deposition rates of sulfur (SO2 + SO4(2-)) are estimated to range from 2.5 kg ha-1 at Whiteface Mountain, NY to 14 kg ha-1 at Argonne, IL. The majority of deposited sulfur was delivered in the form of SO2. Deposition rates were highest during the summer season even though SO2 concentrations peaked during the winter months because the estimated deposition velocities (V(d)) were much greater in the summer. Nearly all of the dry deposited nitrogen (HNO3 + NO3-) was in the form of HNO3. An annual cycle was not evident in the time series of nitrogen deposition rates. For both sulfur and nitrogen, dry deposition was estimated to provide between 30% and 50% of the total input from the atmosphere (wet + dry) for all sites in the eastern U.S.

AB Cribs, ordered arrays of sticks, were burned to mimic post-nuclear building fires. As the packing density of the cribs was increased to simulate blast damage, the smoke yield increased and the smoke changed from strongly light absorbing to whitish in color. A ventilation parameter proportional to the ratio of the crib vent area to the total fuel surface area correlated the burning rate and smoke yield data for both large (3.81 cm stick thickness) and small (0.64 cm stick thickness) scale cribs. The globally averaged smoke optical depth inferred from the burning of the wood cribs is in the low range of Penner's (1986, Nature 324, 222-226) estimate. The smoke yield for freely burning cribs containing wood, gypsum, and plastic can be accounted for based on the high sooting yield of the plastic by itself.

The perfluorocarbon tracers were routinely released in a 3-h period every 2.5 days, alternating between daytime and night-time tracer releases. Ground-level air samples of 24-h duration were taken at 77 sites mostly located near rawinsonde stations east of 105-degrees-W and between 26-degrees-N and 55-degrees-N. Weekly air samples were taken at 12 remote sites between San Diego, CA and Pt. Barrow, AK and between Norway and the Canary Islands. Short-term 6-h samples were collected at ground level and 200 m AGL along an arc of five towers between Tulsa, OK and Green Bay, WI. Aircraft sampling within several hundred kilometers of both tracer release sites was used to establish the initial tracer path.
Experimental design required improved sampler performance, new tracers with lower atmospheric backgrounds, and improvements in analytic precision. The advances to the perfluorocarbon tracer system are discussed in detail.
Results from the tracer sampling showed that the average and peak concentrations measured over the daily ground-level sampling network were consistent with what would be calculated using mass conservative approaches. However, ground-level samples from individual tracer patterns showed considerable complexity due to vertical stability or the interaction of the tracer plumes with low pressure and frontal systems. These systems could pass right through the tracer plume without appreciable effect. Aircraft tracer measurements are used to confirm the initial tracer trajectory when the narrow plume may miss the coarser spaced ground-level sampling network. Tower tracer measurements showed a more complex temporal structure than evident from the longer duration ground-level sampling sites. Few above background plume measurements were evident in the more distant remote sampling network due to larger than expected uncertainties in the ambient background concentrations.

DE STACK-TIP DOWNWASH; ATMOSPHERIC DIFFUSION; WIND-TUNNEL MODELING; AIR

AB Downwash of neutrally buoyant effluent on the immediate lee side of a circular stack was modeled using a wind-tunnel simulation. Both subcritical and supercritical turbulent flows were simulated, where the criticality refers to Reynolds numbers below and above the critical Reynolds number, Re(c) (congruent-to 2 x 10(5)), where the boundary layer on the cylinder becomes turbulent and the drag coefficient drops sharply. Subcritical Reynolds numbers are typically attained by small-diameter stacks in relatively light winds; supercritical ones are attained by large-diameter stacks in strong winds. The downwash characteristics differ markedly in the two regimes. In the subcritical regime, downwash begins when the ratio of effluent speed to wind speed (W/U) is about 1.5; in the supercritical regime, downwash begins at W/U congruent-to 1.1. The downwash in the immediate lee of the stack at W/U = 0.3 extends to 7 diameters down from the stack top in the subcritical regime and to 4 diameters down in the supercritical regime. Graphs and simple formulas are presented describing the plume trajectories and plume widths for 0.4 less-than-or-equal-to W/U less-than-or-equal-to 2.0 and for downwind distances from the source to 30 stack diameters. Practical recommendations are made for modeling the downwash of neutrally buoyant plumes.

AB The measurement of turbulent wind quantities with a single Doppler radar requires a horizontal homogeneity assumption. When the terrain is not horizontally homogeneous, then the measurement of the various moments is contaminated by the gradients of these moments. However, by scanning the radar at three different elevation angles, the contamination from these gradients can be removed from the second-moment quantities of interest.

AB Breakdowns of stability in the PBL are examined using one-minute average horizontal wind speeds and temperatures observed over many nights at stations located in simple and complex terrain. The analysis is based on the temporal behavior of the wind speed-temperature covariance, which is obtained by digital bandpass filtering. It is shown that breakdowns are a common feature of the stable PBL over both simple and complex environments. Vertical fluxes of heat during breakdowns are estimated to be a significant fraction of the nighttime average heat flux. It is hypothesized that a major portion of the nighttime vertical transfer of heat, momentum, and atmospheric pollutants occurs during periods of stability breakdowns.

ID NEW-ZEALAND; REEF-FISH; REVISION
AB Walters Shoals is an isolated seamount reaching to within 18 m of the surface, and is located about 400 nautical miles south of Madagascar and 600 nm east of South Africa. It is part of a chain of seven islands and seamounts extending along the West Wind Drift from Gough and Tristan da Cunha in the South Atlantic to Amsterdam and St. Paul in the sourthern Indian Ocean. Fishes were collected during VITYAZ cruise 17 in December 1988. The shallow-water fish fauna comprises about 20 species and is composed of three elements: endemics (7-8 species), wide-spread temperate or subtropical species (5-6), and tropical Indo-West Pacific reef species (6). Three species, a carangid, Trachurus longimanus, a cheilodactylid, Acantholatris monodactylus, and a labrid, Nelabrichthys ornatus, are endemic to the West Wind Drift islands. A serranid, Lepidoperca coatsii, is known from four of the island groups and may also occur at Walters Shoals. Another serranid, Serranus novemcinctus, occurs only at the four Indian Ocean islands and seamounts. The common Gymnothorax is an undescribed species, probably endemic. A specimen of scorpaenid has been described as Scorpaenodes immaculatus, also probably endemic. A second species of Gymnothorax and the species of Plagiogeneion may also be endemic species. Thus, 30-40% of the shallow water fish fauna of Walters Shoals is endemic to some part of this chain of islands and seamounts. The species of Carcharhinus, Cheilopogon, Polyprion, Seriola, and Scomber are wide-spread in temperate or subtropical waters. Plectranthias longimanus, Apogon semiornatus, Chromis weberi, C. axillaris, Pterois cf. miles, and Kentrocapros rosapinto are tropical Indo-West Pacific reef fishes. The fish fauna of Walters Shoals links Briggs's Tristan-Gough Province of his southern South American Cold Temperate Region with the Amsterdam-St. Paul Province of his Southern African Warm Temperate Region into a single zoogeographic province, which is here called the West Wind Drift Islands Province.

ID SHELIKOF STRAIT; COASTAL CURRENT; SURVIVAL
AB The spawning distribution of walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) and subsequent southwesterly drift of eggs, lavae, and juveniles were investigated in Shelikof Strait, March-September 1987. In mid-March, a hydroacoustics survey found that spawning adults were concentrated in the deeper parts of Shelikof Strait, as were eggs collected in this area during an ichthyoplankton survey about 1 mo later. In May, a concentration of young larvae was found 100-150 km to the southwest of the spawning area. In late June and early July, the center of distribution of late larval and early juvenile walleye pollock was further to the southwest, between the Shumagin and Semidi Islands. By August and September, juveniles were mostly distributed downstream of the Shumagin Islands. The rate of drift of eggs and larvae through June was estimated at 4-6 cm/s. The trajectories of satellite-tracked buoys deployed in the region of greatest egg abundance revealed similar patterns to those of the early life stages of walleye pollock. These observations demonstrate that transport is an important factor determining the distribution of pollock larvae in downstream coastal nursery areas.

AB The potential for genetic interactions between hatchery and wild populations of salmonids in northwestern North America has increased considerably in recent decades. Efforts to mitigate severe losses to many wild stocks caused by overfishing, destruction of habitat, and blockage of migratory routes have focussed on boosting artificial production in public hatcheries. Opportunities for genetic interactions between hatchery and wild fish will increase if efforts to supplement wild production with hatchery-reared fish continue. Concerns center on three issues: (1) direct genetic effects (caused by hybridization and introgression); (2) indirect genetic effects (principally due to altered selection regimes or reductions in population size caused by competition, predation, disease, or other factors); and (3) genetic changes to hatchery stocks (through selection, drift, or stock transfers), which magnify the consequences of hybridization with wild fish. Strategies for minimizing these genetic risks and monitoring the consequences of various management options are discussed, and some important areas for future research are identified.

AB The biomineralization of bovine pericardium (BP) heart valve bioprostheses was investigated by simulation of the process under in vitro and in vivo conditions. The nature and composition of calcific deposits that formed in human heart valve bioprostheses were compared with the mineral formed on BP discs immersed in a calcifying medium or subcutaneously implanted into Sprague-Dawley rats. The early stage of experimental biomineralization in vitro took place on the surface only, while in vivo deposition appeared to be intrinsic, as documented by histological cross sections. The chemical composition of the initial mineral phase formed under in vitro conditions had a mean molar Ca/P ratio = 1.255, standard deviation (S.D.) = 0.057, (n = 6). The composition of mineral formed under in vivo conditions had a low initial Ca/P ratio. From 4 days to three weeks the average in vivo ratio was 1.239, S.D. = 0.203 (n = 38). This ratio increased to 1.707, S.D. = 0.038 (n = 6) following seven weeks of implantation. The latter ratio is similar to that of biomineral formed in human bioprostheses: Ca/P = 1.645, S.D. = 0.021 (n = 6). The deproteinated biomineral showed a population of microparticles in the range of 50-200 nm with a microcrystalline apatitic X-ray diffraction pattern. The biomineral contained a significant amount of carbonate, and the solubility was markedly higher than the solubility of hydroxyapatite. Combined information from in vitro, in vivo and bioprosthetic mineralization supports the concept that octacalcium phosphate is a precursor that transforms into bioapatite and is implicated in the calcification of bioprosthetic heart valves.

TI HIGH-TEMPERATURE DEGRADATION OF STRUCTURAL COMPOSITES
SO CERAMICS INTERNATIONAL
LA English
DT Article
AB Ceramic matrix composites are being developed to improve the toughness of ceramics in structural applications. Modest success has been experienced in manufacturing ceramic matrix composites for which it is possible to double the room temperature toughness while still retaining the high strength of the untoughened material. As many of these new composites are expected to be used at high temperatures, their mechanical behavior at both high and low temperature must be characterized. In this paper, creep and creep rupture of both particulate and whisker reinforced ceramic matrix composites are discussed. Principal findings of experimental investigations on these materials indicate: (1) resistance to creep deformation is greater in compression than in tension; (2) the creep rupture lifetime follows a Monkman-Grant behavior in which the lifetime can be expressed as a power function of the steady state creep rate; (3) the principal mechanism of failure in creep is interfacial cavitation. Cavities nucleate at interfaces and then grow into full facet cavities. Failure occurs either by the growth or the linkage of these cavities to form critical size cracks in the composite.

AB Juvenile English sole were exposed intramuscularly to nitrofurantoin (NF) and the levels of 8-hydroxy-2'deoxyguanosine (8-OH-dG) in liver, kidney and blood were determined using reversed-phase HPLC with electrochemical detection. Identification and quantitation of the 8-OH-dG in the samples was accomplished by comparison with standard 8-OH-dG, which was characterized by UV spectroscopy and fast-atom bombardment mass spectrometry. The levels of hepatic 8-OH-dG increased (r2 = 0.59, P = 0.015) with the dose of NF (0.10-10 mg NF/kg fish). In kidney and blood, however, the levels of 8-OH-dG were significantly higher than controls only at the highest dose tested. The level of binding in liver ranged from 0.37 to 0.76 fmol 8-OH-dG/mu-g DNA. The levels of hepatic 8-OH-dG reached a maximum (approx. 1 fmol 8-OH-dG/mu-g DNA) between 1 and 3 days after exposure, followed by a decrease to control levels (approx. 0.25 fmol 8-OH-dG/mu-g DNA) at 5 days post-exposure. These data demonstrate the first direct evidence for the formation of oxidized DNA bases resulting from the metabolism of a nitroaromatic compound by fish.

AB The effects of pressure on the thermal decomposition kinetics, chemical reactivity, and phase behavior of RDX have been studied by a combination of measurement techniques in conjunction with a high-pressure diamond anvil cell. These techniques include (1) Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy for kinetic measurements and phase identification, (2) energy dispersive x-ray powder diffraction for identification of the observed polymorphic forms and also compression measurements, and (3) optical polarizing microscopy for visual detection and confirmation of phase transformations and determinations of transition pressures. The ruby method of pressure measurement was used in all methods employed. Studies were generally limited to the region where decomposition rates could be measured within reasonable laboratory time, i.e., below 10 GPa and 573 K. The P-T phase diagram for RDX was determined to 573 K and 7.0 GPa, delineating the stability fields of three solid phases, alpha, beta, and gamma, and the liquidus. The alpha and beta phases of RDX were found to thermally decompose, while the gamma phase transformed to either alpha or beta before reaching decomposition temperatures. The decomposition rate of alpha phase was found to increase with increasing pressure, suggesting a bimolecular-type mechanism. An activation energy of 51 kcal/mol and activation volume of -5.6 cm3/mol were calculated for the thermal decomposition reaction of alpha RDX.

AB Let n(i)S(i)2/theta-i for i = 1,2,..., q represent independently distributed chi-squared random variables with n(i) degrees of freedom. In this article, we develop new procedures for obtaining approximate confidence intervals on positive linear combinations of the theta-i. The proposed approximations, in many cases, are the weighted average of liberal and conservative confidence limits. By choosing the appropriate weight, which can be easily determined from data, we show that the proposed methods produce confidence intervals with confidence coefficients very close to the stated level. Numerical examples compare the performance to other approximations.

AB A vast collection of reusable mathematical and statistical software is now available for use by scientists and engineers in their modeling efforts. This software represents a significant source of mathematical expertise, created and maintained at considerable expense. Unfortunately, the collection is so heterogeneous that it is a tedious and error-prone task simply to determine what software is available to solve a given problem. In mathematical problem-solving environments of the future such questions will be fielded by expert software advisory systems. One way for such systems to systematically associate available software with the problems they solve is to use a problem classification system. In this paper we describe a detailed tree-structured problem-oriented classification system appropriate for such use.

AB Materials formulation and processing research are important industrial processes and most materials know-how comes from physical experiments. Our impression, based on discussions with materials scientists, is that statistically planned experiments are infrequently used in materials research. This scientific and engineering area provides an excellent opportunity for both using the available techniques of statistically planned experiments, including mixture experiments, and identifying opportunities for collaborative research leading to further advances in statistical methods for scientists and engineers. This paper describes an application of Scheffe's (1958) simplex approach for mixture experiments to formulation of high-temperature superconducting compounds. This example has given us better appreciation of the needs of materials scientists and has provided us opportunities for further collaborative research.

AB 1. Kemp's ridley sea turtles were placed in a commercial shrimp trawl equipped with a turtle excluder device (TED), resulting in a burst of apneic swimming and a brief bout of forced submergence (less-than-or-equal-to 7.3 min).
2. Trawl tests induced a significant non-respiratory (metabolic) acidosis; blood pH declined almost 0.4 units and plasma [lactate] increased 6-fold from pre- to post-trawl conditions.
3. Significant changes in blood parameters occurred regardless of the duration of forced submergence (range 2.7-7.3 min), suggesting apneic activity was a significant contributor to the observed acid-base imbalance.

AB 1. Amino acids (arginine, alanine and lysine) injected intraperitoneally 6.6-mu-mol/g body weight elevate, while histidine decreases plasma circulating levels of insulin in coho salmon (Oncorhynchus kisutch).
2. Insulinotropic action of arginine (0.03-6.6-mu-mol/g body weight) can be observed at 0.5-5.0 hr after injection. The effect of arginine is dependent on the season being more prolonged in winter when water temperature is low.
3. Insulinotropic action of arginine seems to be direct rather than through stimulation of glucagon or glucagon-like peptide secretion.
4. Feeding coho salmon, chinook salmon (O. tshawytscha) and rainbow trout (O. mykiss) diets supplemented with arginine caused elevation of plasma insulin levels. Arginine supplemented diets (20-30 g/kg dry diet over the content of regular diet) had a short-lasting stimulatory effect on fish growth, an effect which could be detected only in fingerlings.

AB 1. Effects of a contaminated sediment extract on the disposition and metabolism of H-3-17-beta-estradiol in juvenile English sole and on plasma levels of endogenous estradiol in gravid females were examined.
2. Plasma estradiol levels were reduced in both extract-treated juvenile and gravid-sole compared to controls, and in juvenile sole this decrease preceeded an increase in bile levels of H-3-17-beta-estradiol.
3. Extract treatment had no significant effect on types or proportions of 17-beta-estradiol metabolites or levels of related hepatic enzymes.
4. Thus, lower plasma estradiol levels in extract-treated sole were apparently due to alterations in physiological factors (e.g. increased bile flow) and not to enhanced metabolism of 17-beta-estradiol.

AB Past uses of octrees have been for representation of static objects. We discuss extensions necessary to model dynamic surfaces. One particularly important aspect of this is the ability to represent expanding surfaces that grow to be arbitrarily large. Our enhanced octree does exactly this, and models contraction as well. The ability to represent dynamic surfaces allows us to apply octrees to new problems which could not previously have been modeled with static octrees. One such problem is the entropy of random surfaces. Using dynamic octrees, we produced a simulation of self-avoiding random surfaces using Monte Carlo techniques.

AB Time-series delta-O-18 and delta-C-13 records from cohabiting massive coral Porites australiensis and giant clam Tridacna gigas from the Great Barrier Reef of Australia, and from calcareous green algae in a core through modern Halimeda bioherm accreting in the eastern Java Sea, provide insights into the complex links between environmental factors and stable isotopes imprinted in these reef skeletal materials. The aragonitic coral and giant clam offer 20 years and 15 years of growth history, respectively. The giant clam yields mean delta-O-18 and delta-C-13 values of -0.5 +/- 0.5 parts-per-thousand and 2.2 +/- 0.2 parts-per-thousand (n = 67), which agree well with the predicted equilibrium values. The coral yields mean delta-O-18 and delta-C-13 values of -5.6 +/- 0.5 parts-per-thousand and -1.8 +/- 0.7 parts-per-thousand (n = 84), offering a striking example of kinetic and metabolic fractionation effects. Although both the coral and giant clam harbor symbionts and were exposed to a uniform ambient environment during their growth histories, their distinct isotopic compositions demonstrate dissimilar calcification pathways. The delta-O-18 records contain periodicities corresponding to the alternating annual density bands revealed by X-radiography and optical transmitted light. Attenuation of the delta-O-18 seasonal amplitudes occurring in the giant clam record 8 years after skeletal growth commenced is attributed to a changeover from fast to slow growth rates. Extreme seasonal delta-O-18 amplitudes of up to 2.2 parts-per-thousand discerned in both the coral and giant clam records exceed the equivalent seasonal temperature contrast in the reef environment, and are caused by the combined effect of rainfall and evaporation during the monsoon and dry seasons, respectively. Thus in addition of being useful temperature recorders, reef skeletal material of sufficient longevity, such as Porites and Tridacna, may also indicate rainfall variations. Changing growth rates, determined from the annual growth bands, may exert a primary control on the coral delta-C-13 record which shows a remarkable negative shift of 1.7 parts-per-thousand over its growth history, by comparison with only 0.15 parts-per-thousand negative shift in the contemporaneous giant clam record. Use of coral delta-C-13 records as proxies of fossil fuel CO2 uptake by the ocean must be regarded with caution. The delta-O-18 and delta-C-13 records from Halimeda are remarkably uniform over 1000 years of bioherm accretion history (delta-O-18 = -1.7 +/- 0.2 parts-per-thousand; delta-C-13 = 3.9 +/- 0.1 parts-per-thousand, n = 28), in spite of variable Mg-calcite cements present in the utricles. Most of the cement infilling is probably syndepositional, and both the Halimeda aragonite and the Mg-calcite cements containing 12.3 mole % MgCO3 are deposited in isotopic equilibrium. Therefore, in favorable circumstances these algal skeletal remains may act as the shallow water analogs of benthic foraminifera in deep sea sediments in recording ambient sea water isotopic composition and temperature.

AB Perlite, a powdered insulation, is commonly used in large cryogenic storage dewars. When these dewars are thermally cycled, the perlite in the evacuated space between the inner and outer vessels of the dewar experiences a changing mechanical load due to thermal expansion and contraction of the inner vessel. Thermal conductivity data were obtained using a boil-off calorimeter. The apparent thermal conductivity of evacuated perlite increases strongly with applied load. Hysteretic behaviour of the conductivity was observed when perlite was subjected to cyclic mechanical loading.

AB Estimates of the characteristics and proportional importance of water mass factors are determined by exploratory multivariate Q-mode factor analysis (QMFA) of Pacific Ocean hydrographic data from the region north of 30-degrees-S. The inter-tracer ratios between potential temperature, salinity, the calculated parameters "NO" and "PO" and silicate are used to establish a matrix of similarity coefficients between all station locations. Its rotated eigenvectors ("factors") are viewed as distinct water types of the system. On individual key density surfaces QMFA shows that the spatial distribution of relative contributions from the primary factors can be linked to known or suspected water types and their subsequent spreading. The minor factors reflect smaller perturbations of the dominating ratios.
Another QMFA was done in three dimensions by combining all density layers to determine factors derived from diapycnal as well as isopycnal property gradients. Two primary factors represent the opposing vertical temperature and salinity-nutrients gradient: "a deep water melange", which concentrates in the Northeast Pacific (maximum where sigma-1 greater-than-or-equal-to 31.93), and a "subtropical thermocline" factor (maximum on sigma-theta = 25.80) centered in the subtropical gyres. The spatially uneven decrease of relative contribution from a "shallow" factor as one moves down from the upper to the lower thermocline suggests areas where the exchange with the "deeper" factor may be enhanced.

TI FLOW OF ABYSSAL WATER INTO THE SAMOA PASSAGE
SO DEEP-SEA RESEARCH PART A-OCEANOGRAPHIC RESEARCH PAPERS
LA English
DT Article
ID SOUTH-PACIFIC
AB On the TEW Expedition a hydrographic section was made in June 1987 across the Samoa Passage; in addition, south of the Passage, a section was made through the Penrhyn and Samoa Basins and the Tonga Trench. In this paper the flow of the deep water with North Atlantic Deep Water and Antarctic characteristics below 3500 m is discussed. Temperature-salinity-oxygen relationships show a similarity of properties between the Tonga Trench and western boundary of the Samoa Basin. The salinity and silicate date show distinct signatures of North Atlantic Deep Water and Antarctic Bottom Water flowing into the Samoa Passage. Salinity and silicate data in the Samoa Basin and Passage are similar to those measured on the STYX Expedition (1968). Oxygen data show that the water along the Samoa Basin's western boundary is oxygen-rich relative to water in the eastern Basin, but with no oxygen maximum in deep water, as was observed on STYX. Geostrophic flow, based on a reference surface determined from T-S, O2 curves, shows strong northward components (> 10 cm s-1) in the Samoa Passage. On the west side of the Passage the flow was southward (< 1 cm s-1) below 4600 m. This flow reversal was associated with a reversal of the sign of the horizontal potential temperature gradient and also with lower values of oxygen, salinity and silicate next to the boundary. The northward transport of Lower Circumpolar Water between the Manihiki Plateau and the Tonga Trench was 12.3 +/- 3.6 x 10(6) m3 s-1; the flow into the Samoa Passage was 6.0 +/- 1.1 x 10(6) m3 s-1. Assuming that only flow above 4800 m can exit the northern Samoa Basin because of topographic restrictions, the total northward transport into the north Tokelau Basin was 9.6 +/- 1.8 x 10(6) m3 s-1.

AB Sexual dimorphism and factors that may cause it were investigated in 34 species of the genus Sebastes. Sexual dimorphism in standard length and morphometric characters are fairly common in rockfish. In many species males are shorter than females. However in males head legth, width of orbit, interorbital width, length of upper jaw, longest pectoral fin ray and longest dorsal spine tend to be larger at a specified size than in females. Water-column species tend to be more dimorphic than demersal species. We suggest that the observed differences in dimorphism in standard length may be related to differences in mating and territorial behavior. Dimorphisms in morphometric measurements may be related to compensation in feeding ability for reduced standard length of males, mating and territorial behavior.

AB During gestation, live-bearing fishes incur physiological energy costs, including provision of energy and respiratory gases to the developing embryos and removal of waste products. Fecundity in the genus Sebastes is high, and the ovaries represent a significant portion of the weight of gestating females. In this study, we compare oxygen consumption of gestating females with non-gestating females and males of kurosoi, Sebastes schlegeli, to estimate these costs. Oxygen consumption by pregnant females is significantly higher than that of males and immature females at similar sizes and weights. We estimate that a 1.5 kg gestating female consumes 68% more oxygen than a non-gestating fish during the 51.5-day period of gestation. Such an increase in oxygen consumption rates may have important implications to the metabolic scope of gestating females. The additional oxygen consumed by gestating females is greater than that predicted for the embryos alone, suggesting that costs of increased gill ventilation, ionic and osmotic regulation and cardiac output are relatively high. Such energetic costs represent a quantifiable expense of the viviparous mode of reproduction in Sebastes as compared with oviparous species.

Research findings included reversal of the sex ratios and male-female ages and sizes at age throughout the annual cycle, heavier and longer females at age than males after sexual maturation, maturation of females at 6 and males at 8 years, long reproductive lifespans, distinct male and female gonadosomatic index patterns over the annual cycle, age- and size-specific fecundity, no difference between potential and realized fecundity and the seasonal changes associated with gonadogenesis. The reproductive profile of the Cordell Bank yellowtail rockfish provided a base for comparison with northern populations that appeared to differ, especially in age and size.

AB The purpose of the present investigation was to determine at what stages of embryonic development the sodium pump (Na +, K + -activated ATP phosphohydrolase, EC 3.6.1.3) appears and whether the ontogeny of the sodium pump plays a role in the matrotrophic viviparity of Sebastes. Early larval stages (stages 1-14) had embryonic tissues nearly devoid of Na, K-ATPase activity. After epiboly, tissues from embryos taken from both species, S. schlegeli and S. taczanowskii, had significant levels of enzymatic activity coincident with the appearance of neuronal tissue in the head fold (stages 15-20). Maximal levels of specific activities of the enzyme were reached with the onset of the vascular circulation and the opening of the buccal cavity together with maturation of the midgut and hindgut regions of the intestinal tract (stages 26 and 28). Ouabain, a specific inhibitor of Na, K-ATPase, was used to measure survival of embryos placed in different seawater concentrations under in vitro conditions. The most sensitive stages to external ouabain were 26-30. These findings support the hypothesis that the intestinal tract is functional prior to gestation and could be transporting important nutritive material found in maternal ovarian fluid.

AB The ability of embryos of the viviparous scorpaenid Sebastes melanops to take up nutrients from an exogenous substrate was demonstrated by incubating embryos at various stages of development (18-30 days after fertilization) in C-14-labeled glycine for 24 h. Uptake was highest for embryos at the latest stages (28-30 days) and increased at a linear rate during the incubation period. Nutrient uptake was not time dependent in embryos at the early stages (18-22 days). Nutrient utilization by S. melanops embryos was measured by the oxidation of C-14-labeled glycine to (CO2)-C-14. The amount of respired (CO2)-C-14 by the oldest embryos increased significantly at a linear rate over the 24 h incubation period. There was no evidence of nutrient utilization by the youngest embryos. The developmental changes we observed in the uptake and utilization of exogenous glycine are supported by our previous findings that the oldest embryos have fully developed mouths and guts, and require additional nutrition from intraovarian sources at this stage of development.

AB Ultrastructural features of the epidermis and rectum were studied in Sebastes schlegeli and S. melanops during the late stages of embryonic development, to confirm uptake of maternal substances. Ruthenium red (RR) and horseradish peroxidase (HRP) were used at fixation and in live embryos, respectively. Epidermal tissue of embryos after developmental stage 24 comprised two squamous cell layers. The outer, thinner cells and their intercellular spaces were easily infiltrated with RR, but the inner cells had no RR deposition. The HRP was not incorporated into the epidermis except in a few outer cells, which had well-developed microvillous projections of cytoplasm. Sacciform cells, chloride cells, and mucous cells distributed in the inner layer but protruding to the epidermal surface had no intracellular RR and HRP depositions. The rectal cells of embryos at about developmental stage 28 had many globular inclusions containing electron-dense substances. The rectal cells were found to take up and digest HRP actively. It is suggested that the embryonic epidermis is structurally loose and takes up low weight molecules, while rectal cells, after the opening of the mouth, actively ingest exogenous, high weight molecules.

AB Current information on systematics and morphology of larvae and juveniles of Sebastes is reviewed, as are intrageneric relationships among the many species of the genus. Although some subgenera may remain after a cladistic analysis of the genus, others are probably artificial groupings of species that have convergent morphologies because of similar ecology. The relationships of Sebastes to other scorpaeniform fishes as well as the relationships of scorpaeniforms to other fishes are not resolved. Of the 102 species of Sebastes worldwide, 69 species have been illustrated as preflexion larvae, 35 as postflexion larvae and 65 as pelagic juveniles. Morphological characters of each of these stages were used to compare species, group them by similar appearances and then compare these groupings with existing subgenera. Some pigment patterns of preflexion larvae were rather consistent among species within certain subgenera but quite variable among species in other subgenera. Postflexion larvae fell into 11 groups based on pigment, head spines and body shape. These groups were not closely aligned with the subgeneric assignments of the component species. On the basis of pigment patterns of pelagic juveniles, six groups were evident, but the specific composition of these groups bore little resemblance to either the larval or subgeneric groups.

AB Many Sebastes larvae lack distinguishing morphological characteristics, particularly in the size range of 8-12 mm. Complete descriptions are available for only about 12 of the 72 northeastern Pacific species. Allozyme analysis has been very useful in the identification of adult Sebastes, and our objective was to determine whether it could be equally useful in the identification of larvae and juveniles. Individually dissected tissues (muscle, liver, eye, heart) were assayed from Sebastes juveniles (> 30 mm total length (TL)). The allozyme activity and resolution from the juveniles for 33 loci were indistinguishable from those obtained from adults. Larvae (5-12 mm TL) were prepared whole, and their allozyme expression varied by individual size and locus. A total of 32 loci were resolved from the larger (9-12 mm TL) larvae, but the allozyme activity was reduced in smaller (5-8 mm TL) larvae. Adequate resolution from the smaller larvae was obtained for 28 loci, a sufficient number to identify individuals to species. Allozyme analysis is a valuable technique to identify the species of Sebastes larvae and to aid in developing morphological and meristic descriptions. Other DNA-level techniques will likely further increase our ability to identify Sebastes larvae.

AB Pelagic larvae and juveniles of the genus Sebastes are widely distributed in the continental shelf and slope waters of subarctic to temperate oceans, with greatest abundance in the Northern Hemisphere. We review the ecology and distribution of these planktonic and micronektonic life stages in relation to oceanographic conditions. Special attention is paid to the west coast of North America, where abundance of larvae from samples collected during 1951-1981 is described. After transformation, the pelagic juveniles are widely distributed, often at great distances from benthic adult habitats. These stages are most frequently distributed in either midwater or near-surface habitats; this dichotomy may require different strategies for successful recruitment.

AB A variety of neoplasms and nonneoplastic hepatic lesions have been noted in winter flounder, Pseudopleuronectes americanus, from Boston Harbor, Massachusetts. Inflammatory lesions include cholangiitis, pericholangiitis, pericholangial fibrosis, hepatitis, and pancreatitis. Necrotic lesions consist essentially of focal coagulative necrosis and a distinctive vacuolated cell lesion of the hepatic parenchyma. The most conspicuous and numerous proliferative lesion is macrophage aggregate hyperplasia and hypertrophy. Preneoplastic lesions include principally basophilic foci of cellular alteration and hepatocellular adenoma. Carcinomas consist of several morphologic varieties: hepatocarcinoma, cholangiocarcinoma, and anaplastic adenocarcinoma. The pathogenesis of the lesions observed is discussed with respect to anthropogenically introduced chemical contaminants and the resistant hepatocyte model of hepatocarcinogenesis. This study, and others of bottom-living food fish with enzootic neoplastic disease, warrants further evaluation, particularly with respect to possible bioaccumulation of chemical contaminants in edible tissues.

AB Seasonal and geographic studies of transmissible sarcoma in Maryland softshell clams, Mya arenaria, were carried out from 1984 to 1988. Three major epizootics occurred in our sampling location during this time, resulting in prevalences as high as 90%, with comparable mortalities in other high prevalence areas. The disease invaded populations of large adult clams first, later spreading to the small juvenile clam populations. An apparent 2-year cycle was noted with varying seasonal effects. Affected sites tended to be in the main stem of Chesapeake Bay north of Tangier Sound, primarily in the areas where the major harvesting occurs. Several sites, mostly in upstream locations, were consistently free of disease. The epizootiological study supports the interpretation that the disease is infectious exclusively to this species. Regression analysis between sarcoma prevalence and contaminant levels in clam tissues showed a significant correlation (p = 0.0001) between chlordane levels and this disease. No correlations were found with other contaminants that were analyzed.

AB Mean concentrations of PAHs, PCBs, and DDT in mollusks and sediments at sites in the National Status and Trends Program (NST) are distributed in log-normal fashion. The dry weight-based chlorinated organic concentrations in mollusks generally exceed those in nearby sediments by an order of magnitude. PAHs are found at similar concentrations in sediments and mollusks. Highest concentrations of PCBs and DDT in mollusks are in the ranges of 1000 to 4000 ng/g (dry) and 400 to 1000 ng/g (dry), respectively. The highest PAH concentrations in sediments are in the 10,000 to 50,000 ng/g (dry) range. While higher concentrations of contaminants can be found by sampling localized hot spots, the NST data represent the distribution of concentrations over general areas of the coastal United States.

AB Studies with several bottom fish species from urban waterways show that of the identified xenobiotic chemicals in bottom sediments, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) are the most strongly associated with the prevalence of liver lesions, including neoplasms. Accordingly, there is concern about the transfer of contaminants, such as PAHs, from aquatic species to humans. Because PAHs exert their toxicity only after being biotransformed, increasing attention has been focused on the ability of aquatic organisms to metabolize these chemicals. Overall, the results of both laboratory and field studies show that generally low levels (nanograms per gram wet weight) of a few low molecular weight PAHs may be present in edible tissue of fish from contaminated areas and that high molecular weight PAHs, such as the carcinogen benzo(a)pyrene, will rarely be detected because of extensive metabolism. Additionally, the results from a few studies suggest that even though interactions between xenobiotics can affect both biochemical and physiological systems to alter the disposition of PAHs in fish, these interactions do not markedly change the relative proportions of metabolites to parent PAH in tissues. Thus, these studies clearly demonstrate that to obtain some insight into the questions of whether there is any risk to human health from consuming fish and crustaceans from urban areas, techniques must be developed that measure metabolites of carcinogens, such as PAHs, in edible tissue. Initial attempts may focus on semiquantitative methods that permit rapid assessment of the level of metabolites in edible tissues of fish and crustaceans from many urban areas. Based on information from such screening studies, further refinement in methodology leading to identification of specific compounds may be needed because certain metabolites may not be as toxic or carcinogenic as others. A scientifically sound database on a broad spectrum of contaminants and their metabolites in aquatic species is needed before we can adequately address the question of bioavailability or food chain transfer of these compounds to humans.

Diporeia sp. were sampled for mortality and toxicokinetics for up to 26 d. Significant sediment avoidance was observed at the highest dose out to 6 d of exposure. The toxicity for the mixture was 38 +/- 3% after 19 d of exposure at the highest dose, 327 nmol g-1 dry sediment as the molar sum of the PAHs. The measured organism concentration required to produce the mortality at day 19 was 2.9-mu-mol g-1 as the sum of the bioaccumulated PAHs. The uptake clearance (g dry sediment g-1 organism h-1) from sediments for the radiotracers increased with dose to an apparent plateau. Uptake clearance is the conditional constant relating the contaminant flux into the organism to the contaminant concentration in the referenced environmental compartment, in this case the sediment. This enhanced bioavailability with dose occurred even in the absence of overt effects and in the absence of changes in the measured partition coefficients for phenanthrene (273 +/- 98) and pyrene (540 +/- 212), between the freely dissolved radiotracers in interstitial water and the sediment particles. These changes in bioavailability with changes in PAH concentration suggest that predictions of bioaccumulation of PAH congeners from sediments under different field concentration conditions will not be possible with standard partitioning relationships.

AB Accumulation of hydrophobic organic xenobiotics is though to occur by passive diffusion across the respiratory membrane of aquatic organisms. This route has been confirmed with fish. However, aquatic invertebrates tend to remove organic xenobiotics from water much more efficiently than oxygen, based on the relative uptake clearances. Uptake clearance is the rate coefficient that describes the volume of water stripped of analyte per g of organism per h. For the amphipod Diporeia sp., formerly classified as Pontoporeia hoyi, ratios of the contaminant uptake clearances to oxygen clearance were essentially constant at 3.9 +/- 0.4 (X + SE) for benzo[a]pyrene (BaP), 3.8 +/- 0.3 for hexachlorobiphenyl (HCBP), and 4.2 +/- 0.6 for phenanthrene (Phe). Therefore, based on the membrane transport efficiencies of nonpolar xenobiotics (60-80%) and oxygen (approximately 63%) in fish, and the uptake clearance for organic xenobiotics by Diporeia sp., either xenobiotics are accumulated through routes other than across the respiratory membrane or the accumulation efficiency of oxygen from water is much lower in amphipods than it is in fish. The variability in the uptake clearance for both BaP and HCBP was best described by regressions with the surface area-to-volume ratio, whereas the uptake clearance for the more hydrophilic Phe was best described by a total surface area relationship.

AB Measurements, utilizing Rayleigh light scattering, of time-averaged concentration and unmixedness have been made along the centerlines of axisymmetric turbulent jets formed from six pairs of jet and ambient gases. Jet to ambient density ratios range from 0.14 to 5.11. Findings are compared with predictions of an approx. similarity analysis and with extensive previous literature measurements. It is shown that virtual origins for plots of inverse time-averaged concentration are strongly dependent on global density ratio. Unmixedness values first grow with increasing distance from the jet source and then achieve an asymptote. The flow distance required to reach this asymptote is a strong function of density ratio.

AB Measurements of time-averaged jet fluid mass fraction and unmixedness are reported along the centerlines of axisymmetric jets having Reynolds numbers (Re) covering a range of 3,950-11,880. Jet gases investigated are propane, carbon tetrafluoride, and sulfur hexafluoride. The slopes for the fall off of inverse centerline mass fraction with distance are found to be independent of Re for moderate downstream distances, but virtual origins for the data are shown to move downstream with increasing Re. Unmixedness measurements show that flows with higher Re require longer flow distances to achieve asymptotic behavior. Results of other investigations reported in the literature are discussed which support the conclusions of this work. The relationship between the centerline mixing and entrainment behaviors of these flows is explored.

The techniques are reminiscent of the WKBJ methodology, but the solution, although approximate, is much more useful than the traditional WKBJ solution and can be used with almost as much ease. The method is extremely powerful but, to our knowledge, is not used in the optics community. It is useful in analyzing integrated optical waveguide components.

AB Large-scale room fire testing has evolved from simple fire performance measurements such as intensity and duration of 'room fires' to sophisticated measurements to understand the properties which cause the fire. This paper provides a overview of typical calculations, based upon published research results, that are used at the Center for Fire Research and elsewhere for the analysis of a large-scale room fire test. Analysis of large-scale fire test data requires the development of a series of algorithms that combine individual measurements to produce the desired physical quantity. A set of algorithms for the analysis of fire test data based upon published research results is described. Included are fire-specific calculations such as smoke and gas analysis, layer temperature and interface position, mass loss and flows, and rate of heat release. Examples of the application of the calculations are provided.

AB Batch fecundity, weight-specific fecundity (number of eggs per gram somatic weight), size of ripe ovarian eggs, and the somatic and gonadal conditions of adult female queenfish Seriphus politus were estimated for five spawning seasons during an 8-year (1979-86) period. The effects of female somatic weight were evaluated in analyses of covariance comparing batch fecundity, egg size, and gonadal condition among years.
Batch fecundity was positively (and allometrically) related to female somatic weight. Fecundities were remarkably similar during four of the five years evaluated. After adjustment for annual differences in female size, fecundities were still significantly lower (by about one-fifth) during 1984, a major El Nino year, compared with the preceding (1979-80) or following (1985-86) pairs of years. Gonadal condition also was uniquely low in 1984. The 1984 declines in fecundity and gonadal condition co-occurred with low somatic condition during 1984, particularly for larger females. Mean size (diameter, dry weight) of eggs was indistinguishable among years. There was a positive relation between egg size and female body size, and a general decline in egg size as the spawning season advanced for females of all sizes.
Likely links between declines in fecundity, gonadal and somatic condition, and the crash in planktonic production during the 1982-84 El Nino are discussed.

TI BETWEEN-READER BIAS AND VARIABILITY IN THE AGE-DETERMINATION PROCESS
SO FISHERY BULLETIN
LA English
DT Article
ID YELLOWTAIL ROCKFISH; VALIDATION; OTOLITHS
AB At the Alaska Fisheries Science Center, one in five age readings produced for routine stock assessments are re-aged independently by a second age-reader. The Center now has a large database of repeated age readings that covers a variety of groundfish species and years. The purpose of this paper is to point out the problems and utility of interpreting such a database. The main problem of interpretation is fundamental, and relates to the fact that the true age of a fish is seldom known. Nevertheless, from a pragmatic point of view, these data can still provide useful insights into the age-determination process. Data from six marine fish species are used to show the overall levels of between-reader bias, agreement, and variability that have occurred on production age readings. Other uses for these data include objectively ranking the relative difficulty in ageing different species, maintaining quality control, examining between-reader differences in ageing criteria, and evaluating the possible importance of between-reader bias and variability in later analysis and modeling applications. Assuming reader bias is negligible, modeling results presented here indicate that estimated percentage agreements are consistent with the hypothesis that age determinations are normally distributed with a constant coefficient of variation over relatively wide age ranges. This result supports use of the coefficient of variation for measuring variability in age precision studies.

TI DIEL SAMPLING OF MIGRATORY JUVENILE SALMONIDS IN THE COLUMBIA RIVER

AB Beach and purse seine catches at Jones Beach, River kilometer 75, were used to examine diel movement patterns of juvenile chinook salmon Oncorhynchus tshawytscha, coho salmon O. kisutch, and steelhead O. mykiss as they migrated downstream in the Columbia River estuary. The patterns were monitored during five 24-hour periods in 1978, 1979, and 1980, and compared with patterns obtained from extensive morning-hour sampling conducted during 1979-83. Diel catch patterns were generally consistent among the sampling periods and there was reasonable agreement with morning-hour sampling. However, diel movement was different than that reported for salmonids in other river systems and in other locations in the Columbia River. The times and lateral position of greatest downstream movement which provided the largest catches of salmonid juveniles were as follows: sunrise to early afternoon nearshore for subyearling chinook salmon, sunrise to early afternoon midriver for yearling chinook salmon, midmorning to early evening nearshore and sunrise to early afternoon midriver for coho salmon, and noon to early evening midriver for steelhead. Decreased movement during darkness was apparent for all salmonids. No relationship between tidal cycle and catch was evident from either beach or purse seine sampling.

AB Tilefish Lopholatilus chamaeleonticeps and yellowedge grouper Epinephelus flavolimbatus are deepwater fishes and targets of a relatively recent bottom longline fishery in the Gulf of Mexico. They are long-lived, slow growing, have very limited movements and distribution, and are susceptible to longlines. However, population size and life-history parameter estimates are generally unknown for Gulf fish. This study compared two methods for estimating population sizes to determine the most cost-effective one for use on long-term fishery-independent stock assessments. Bottom longlines were used to deplete fish from a small area, and a regression of catch per effort on cumulative catch was used to estimate the area's population prior to fishing. The population was also estimated by counting fish burrows from a submersible and expanding the mean number per unit area by the study site's area after correcting for the number of occupied burrows. Longlines and submersibles provided significantly different estimates of tilefish populations, the only species for which estimates could be compared. Longline estimates were probably more accurate because errors in area estimation and double counting were evident in submersible data. Longlines were less expensive to operate ($5000 vs. $8000 per day) and they afforded collection of size, age, and sex data on each fish caught. These data were not available from the submersible. Longlines could be used more cost-effectively than submersibles in determining long-term population changes. However, direct observation of fish behavior was not available from longlines, but was from the submersible. Submersibles also provide data on habitat and gear assessment, including deployment, efficiency, bait predation, and potential catch loss during retrieval.

TI IMPACT OF COMPENSATORY RESPONSES ON ASSESSMENT ADVICE FOR THE NORTHWEST
ATLANTIC MACKEREL STOCK
SO FISHERY BULLETIN
LA English
DT Article
ID DAILY RATION; FOOD; WESTERN
AB Annual assessments of the Northwest Atlantic mackerel stock have occurred every year since 1973, providing useful advice to fishery managers involved in the decision making process for this important pelagic resource. Since 1985, assessment advice based on an F0.1 management strategy has indicated that catches in the 300,000 mt range are feasible because stock biomass has increased greatly after the collapse of the fishery in the mid-1970s. However, indications from previous research are that compensatory processes are very important, so a stochastic simulation model with density-dependent growth, maturity, and natural mortality was constructed to study how these mechanisms might affect our ability to provide short- and long-term advice for this important stock. Model results suggest that our present assessments may be too optimistic relative to yield projections and that minimum spawning-stock biomass levels may be difficult to maintain even with an F0.1 fishing strategy. Model results also reveal that natural mortality rates are probably much higher than previously thought and are important in determining trends in abundance in this stock.

AB The equilibrium contribution of hatchery-released juveniles to a rockfish fishery is evaluated by using a yield-per-recruit model. Hatchery-released juveniles may be worth up to an estimated US$0.16 per juvenile to the fishery. The use of hatchery releases to restore a depleted population of Pacific ocean perch Sebastes alutus is examined with the Deriso-Schnute model. This model indicates that hatchery releases have the potential to substantially increase a stock's yield and rate of recovery during the recovery period.

AB Free radical-induced damage to DNA in vivo can result in deleterious biological consequences such as the initiation and promotion of cancer. Chemical characterization and quantitation of such DNA damage is essential for an understanding of its biological consequences and cellular repair. Methodologies incorporating the technique of gas chromatography/mass spectrometry (GC/MS) have been developed in recent years for measurement of free radical-induced DNA damage. The use of GC/MS with selected-ion monitoring (SIM) facilitates unequivocal identification and quantitation of a large number of products of all four DNA bases produced in DNA by reactions with hydroxyl radical, hydrated electron, and H atom. Hydroxyl radical-induced DNA-protein cross-links in mammalian chromatin, and products of the sugar moiety in DNA are also unequivocally identified and quantitated. The sensitivity and selectivity of the GC/MS-SIM technique enables the measurement of DNA base products even in isolated mammalian chromatin without the necessity of first isolating DNA, and despite the presence of histones. Recent results reviewed in this article demonstrate the usefulness of the GC/MS technique for chemical determination of free radical-induced DNA damage in DNA as well as in mammalian chromatin under a vast variety of conditions of free radical production.

DT Article
AB A procedure to prepare primary gas cylinder standards for eighteen volatile organic compounds (VOC's) at the 1 - 15 nmol/mol (ppb) level was developed. The gas standards that were prepared by this procedure were intercompared by using gas chromatography with flame ionization detection (GC-FID) and electron capture detection (GC-ECD). The data, gravimetric concentration of the standards versus the respective GC peak area response, were plotted for each compound and fitted using linear regression. The regression analysis showed excellent agreement among the standards for each compound. These gas standards were evaluated over a period of 2 years and were determined to be stable and accurate. This research resulted in the development of Standard Reference Material (SRM) 1804, which contains these 18 volatile organic compounds in nitrogen at a nominal concentration of 5 nmol/mol for each compound. A batch of cylinders containing the mixture was procured from a commercial supplier. Each cylinder in the batch was analyzed for each of the 18 components. The data showed that the batch was homogeneous and stable for 15 of the 18 organic compounds, resulting in certification and issuance of SRM 1804.

AB We calculate the rate of heating that occurs in the middle atmosphere (50 - 105 km) due to four exothermic reactions involving members of the odd-hydrogen family. These reactions are O + OH --> O2 + H, H + O2 + M --> HO2 + M, H + O3 --> OH + O2, and O + HO2 --> OH + O2. The energy lost from vibrationally excited OH (produced in the third reaction) by spontaneous emission is explicitly accounted for by using detailed kinetic models, so that only a portion of the exothermicity of this reaction is converted into heat. The heating rates due to these four reactions are found to rival the oxygen-related heating rates conventionally considered in models of the middle atmosphere, e.g., those due to O + O + M --> O2 + M, O + O2 + M --> O3 + M, O2 + hv --> O + O, and O3 + hv --> O + O2. The conversion of chemical potential energy into molecular translational energy (heat) by these odd-hydrogen reactions is a significant source of energy in the middle atmosphere which has not been previously considered.

AB This report was prepared by a working group established by the Oak Ridge Associated Universities (ORAU) for the purpose of assessing the current capabilities of bioassay methods that can be used to determine the occurrence and magnitude of a previous internal deposition of one or more radionuclides. The first five sections discuss general features of the use of in-vitro bioassay samples to achieve this purpose. The remainder of the report is focused on the possible use of urine bioassay procedures to detect and quantify internal depositions of radionuclides that may have occurred in United States occupation troops in Hiroshima or Nagasaki, Japan, prior to 1 July 1946, or to personnel who participated in atmospheric nuclear weapons tests conducted between 1945 and 1962.
Theoretical calculations were made to estimate the quantities of various radionuclides produced in a 20-kiloton (kt) nuclear detonation that might still be present in measurable quantities in people today if they were exposed 25 to 40 y ago. Two radionuclides that emerged as good choices for this type of bioassay analysis were Sr-90, which emits beta particles, and Pu-239, Pu-240, which emits alpha particles. The current status and future prospects of chemical procedures for analyzing in-vitro urine bioassay samples for these two radionuclides were examined to determine the minimum amounts that could be detected with current methods and how much one might expect the sensitivity of detection to improve in the near future.
Most routine Pu-239, Pu-240 bioassay analyses involve detection by alpha spectrometry. The current minimum detectable amount (MDA) is about 0.74 mBq L-1 (20 fCi L-1), but this could be lowered to 74-mu-Bq L-1 (2 fCi L-1). An MDA of 0.74 mBq L-1 (20 fCi L-1) is adequate for routine bioassay analyses but is too high to detect most uptakes of Pu-239, Pu-240 that may have occurred 25 to 40 y ago. Methods under development that are or can be much more sensitive and have lower MDAs than alpha spectrometry for Pu-239 are fission track analysis and mass spectrometry. Currently, the fission track analysis method has an MDA of about 19-mu-Bq L-1 (0.5 fCi L-1), and this may eventually be lowered to 1.9-mu-Bq L-1 (0.05 fCi L-1). The current MDA for Pu-239 by mass spectrometry is about 7.4 mBq L-1 (200 fCi L-1), but the potential exists that it could be lowered to a value of about 0.37-mu-Bq L-1 (0.01 fCi L-1).
For Sr-90, low-background beta counting is one of the best methods currently available. Mass spectrometry could also be used if desired. The current minimum detectable amount, MDA, for Sr-90 in a urine sample using low-background beta counting is about 7.4 mBq L-1 (200 fCi L-1) of urine. This MDA could be reduced to about 1.1 mBq L-1 (30 fCi L-1) if needed.
Bioassay measurements provide only an indirect measurement of how much of a particular radionuclide is present in the body at the time of sampling. Mathematical models are used to estimate the currently retained body burden, the initial body burden when uptake occurred, and the cumulative dose equivalents received by various body organs and tissues. Models of these types for Sr-90 and Pu-39, Pu-240 have received much scientific attention over the past 40 y, and the models available for use today appear to be reasonable for interpretation of bioassay results for intakes that may have occurred 25 to 40 y ago.
One of the major problems that is encountered when interpreting a particular Sr-90 or Pu-239, Pu-240 bioassay result is that, because of worldwide fallout from past atmospheric detonations, everyone contains some Sr-90 and Pu-239, Pu-240. The amount of background Sr-90 or Pu-239, Pu-240 in people is quite variable and depends on a number of factors including age, diet, and geographical location. The accuracy of bioassay for detecting a previous exposure to Sr-90 or Pu-239, Pu-240 in an individual depends, among other things, on how well the expected background level for Sr-90 or Pu-239, Pu-240 in an individual can be estimated and subtracted from the total amount present to determine whether excess Sr-90 or Pu-239, Pu-240 is present.
Exposure to other radionuclides from occupational, medical, or natural background sources can also interfere with a bioassay analysis, but they can be accounted for more easily than can background levels of Sr-90 or Pu-239, Pu-240. Propagation of uncertainty values that may be representative of those encountered in an actual bioassay program indicate that the uncertainty of the dose estimated from a bioassay sample is such that the 5th and 95th percentiles can be at least four to seven times smaller or larger, respectively, than the geometric mean values.
A possible strategy for implementing such a biossay program is suggested in this report. It is based on the concept of testing the usefulness of bioassay in relatively small groups of military personnel who, by virtue of their location and/or activities, may have had the highest likelihood of an internal deposition. These could be selected from situations involving exposure to descending fallout or radionuclides resuspended from various surfaces. In addition to selection of individuals based on their location or activities, individuals with high film-badge readings could also be sampled. If these efforts indicate that urine bioassay can, in fact, provide useful information on past exposures, other groups can also be sampled. When no excess Sr-90 or Pu-239, Pu-240 is detected, it is then possible to place an upper bound on the internal deposition and associated radiation dose that may have been recieved but not detected. Improving sensitivity of the analytical methods available can substantially reduce the magnitude of such undetected uptakes and radiation doses, especially for Pu-239, Pu-240.

AB Current knowledge of Wolf-Rayet continua is reviewed and observed continuum energy distributions are compared with model predictions. Good agreement is found. For WN stars a large range in intrinsic color is found for each subclass and the so far unexplained large range in the observed reddening-free continuum indices can be understood on the basis of atmospheric models. The strength of the continuum discontinuities determines the value of the index. Because of severe blending by the emission lines in WC spectra it can not be decided whether the intrinsic colors of WC stars of a given spectral type vary over a range of values or whether all stars of a given spectral type are similar. The reliability of model calculations for Wolf-Rayet stars is further tested by comparing observed and predicted correlations of helium line strengths. Satisfactory agreement is found for the Kiel/JILA models but not for the Bhatia-Underhill models. Methods used to determine the reddening due to interstellar extinction are reviewed and their accuracies estimated.

We examine the basic premises on which the models are built, and critically compare theoretical models with observation. Discrepancies between theory and observation are analyzed to determine their implication for our understanding of W-R atmospheres. Line formation, continuum formation, and the ionization structure of W-R envelopes are examined in detail. Abundance determinations are briefly reviewed.

AB Preliminary radial velocity orbits are presented for three binary systems containing Wolf-Rayet stars, namely Sk-71-degrees 34 in the LMC, and WR8 and WR98 in our galaxy. Sk-71-degrees 34 is found to be a WN3 + O6 double-lined binary with an elliptic orbit of period about 34 days. WR8 and WR98 both have WN type spectra with carbon lines. In WR8 the N and C lines appear to move in antiphase, while in WR98 all emission lines have the same orbital motion.

ID WOLF-RAYET STARS; MASSIVE CLOSE BINARIES; LOSS RATES; EVOLUTION; DIAGRAM
AB The different channels for the formation of WR-stars, as suggested in the literature, are investigated. The presently available tools, in terms of evolutionary recipies, are reviewed and the results investigated of the use of these tools, with respect to the WR-binaries.
Two of the three basic formation channels, mentioned in the literature, may serve as ways to obtain the presently observed group of WR-binaries: stellar wind mass loss in O-stars during the pre-WR phase and mass transfer in a massive close binary system. Discrepancies with observations necessitated the incorporation of stellar wind in the binary scenario.
Theoretical developments in the last years are reviewed and confronted with the observations. The necessity of mass transfer in the formation process is argued for a major fraction of the double-lined WR-binaries. Using specific evolutionary ingredients, the original parameters of the systems are calculated. We also discuss the appearance and disappearance of double-lined WR-systems as well as the existence of eccentric WR-systems after mass transfer. The evolution of a number of specific systems is discussed individually.

ID GLOBAL POSITIONING SYSTEM; BASELINE; INTERFEROMETRY; LENGTH; DELAY
AB We conducted two water vapor radiometer (WVR) experiments to evaluate whether such instruments are both suitable and needed to correct for propagation effects that are induced by precipitable water vapor (PWV) on signals from the Global Positioning System (GPS) and Very Long Baseline Interferometry (VLBI). WVR's are suitable for these corrections if they provide wet path delays to better than 0.5 cm. They are needed if spatial variations of PWV result in complicated, direction-dependent propagation effects that are too complex to be parametrized in the GPS or VLBI geodetic solution. In the first experiment we addressed the suitability of radiometers by comparing six WVR's at Stapleton International Airport in Denver, Colorado, for two weeks. While two WVR's showed an average wet path delay bias of only 0.1 cm, others were biased by 1-3 cm relative to each other and relative to radiosondes. The second experiment addressed the question whether radiometers are needed for the detection of inhomogeneities in the wet delay. Three JPL D-series radiometers were operated at three sites in Colorado approximately 50-km apart. The WVR's simultaneously sampled PWV at different azimuths and elevations in search of spatial variations of PWV. On one day of this second experiment we found evidence for spatial variations of the wet path delay as high as 20% of the total wet path delay.

ID NEVADA; MINE
AB X-ray diffraction studies of clay minerals from disseminated gold deposits in Nevada demonstrate that illite polytypes are often laterally and vertically zoned around ore bodies. Polytypes act as geothermometers indicating temperatures of ore deposition and thus proximity to the hydrothermal fluids during deposition. Visible/infrared reflectance spectroscopy for field identification and mapping of the illite polytypes is evaluated. Laboratory spectral measurements demonstrate that systematic changes occur as the illites progress from the lower temperature, less ordered 1M variety through the higher temperature 2M type. Distinctive absorption features near 1.90 and 2.20-mu-m and between 2.3-2.5-mu-m differentiate interlayer water, structural water (OH-), and some octahedral layer characteristics. These changes were also observed in the laboratory using a field portable spectrometer and in situ at a major disseminated gold deposit. The results demonstrate that reflectance spectroscopy can be used to assist gold exploration efforts by providing detailed mineralogical information in real time at the field location. As the new generation of imaging spectrometers is developed, it is likely that subtle spectral differences such as those between the illite polytypes will become useful for remote exploration for gold deposits.

AB Centralized systems continue to dominate the information retrieval market, with increased competition from CD-ROM based systems. As more large organizations begin to implement office automation systems, however, many will find that neither of these types of retrieval systems will satisfy their requirements, especially those requirements involving easy integration into other systems and heavy usage by casual end users. A prototype distributed information retrieval system was designed and built using a distributed architecture and using statistical ranking techniques to help provide better service for the end user. The distributed architecture was shown to be a feasible alternative to centralized or CD-ROM information retrieval, and user testing of the ranking methodology showed both widespread user enthusiasm for this retrieval technique and very fast response times (on the order of one second for 300 megabytes of data).

The Hydrographic Data Acquisition and Processing System (HDAPS) addresses NOAA's broad requirement to conduct hydrographic surveys in the coastal waters of the U.S. Systems have been successfully deployed on ships, launches, and small boats.
Two types of HDAPS data acquisition systems (DAS) are presented. The first system, based on Hewlett-Packard (HP) hardware, is deployed on ships and launches. The second type is a small boat, 24-volt system, based on IBM-PC compatible hardware. Both types of DAS are capable of conducting echo sounding and side scan sonar surveys. Data acquired by both systems are processed on an HP-based data processing system.

AB A review of the chemical structures, physical properties, and current and potential applications of liquid crystalline polymers (LCPs) is presented. Comparisons are made between LCPs, low molecular weight liquid crystals (LCs), and conventional polymers for readers unfamiliar with the field. The ordered liquid phases are classified and molecular requirements for the formation of LC phases in both LCP melts (thermotropics) and LCP solutions (lyotropics) are discussed. The theoretical predictions of the formation of ordered phases given by Flory and Onsager are compared with experimental data, and other aspects of the phase behaviour of LCPs in solution are considered, including physical gelation and crystal-solvate complexes. A wide variety of polymer structures that exhibit LC behaviour are presented. These include main chain (rigid rod), semiflexible, main chain with flexible spacers, and side chain LCPs, and various new combinations that have been recently devised. An emphasis is placed on the relationship between chemical and physical structure of LCPs, rather than on the details of the synthesis. The unique physical properties of these materials, including the rheological or flow behaviour, optical, electrical, and mechanical properties, and possible applications in blends, composites, optical devices, elastomers, and other areas are highlighted.

AB Epifluorescence microscopy, flow cytometry, and transmission electron microscopy were used to characterize the community of red fluorescing (emission > 665 nm when excited with blue light) phototrophic picoplankton (RFPP) in lakes Huron and Michigan. A population of coccoid to ovate eukaryotic cells with a mean size of 1.2-mu-m dominated the RFPP community in both surface and deep water samples. Abundant prochlorophyte populations were not found in any samples. Comparisons of counts with epifluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry, revealed that RFPP were adequately enumerated with standard epifluorescence microscopy. These RFPP were significant contributors to total phototrophic picoplankton abundance in both lakes Michigan (24 %) and Huron (18 %), with maximum seasonal abundance during the May-June period (surface mixing layer temperatures, 3-9-degrees-C). During thermal stratification, maximum vertical abundance was found in the metalimnion/hypolimnion at the 1-5 % isolumes. RFPP were only minor contributors (1-7 %) to total primary production. Growth rates of RFPP measured with dilution and small inocula growth experiments ranged from 0.05-1.0 d-1. Microzooplankton grazing rates on RFPP measured with dilution experiments were similar to estimated growth rates, accounting for 52-280 % of growth on any given date.

AB A clone of Synechococcus isolated from Lake Huron and natural populations of Synechococcus from lakes Huron and Michigan were studied in 1989 to examine the diel division cycle and to provide estimates of the in situ growth rate based on the frequency of dividing cells (FDC) method. Cultured populations of Synechococcus exhibited a consistent diel division pattern with a midday/afternoon (1100-1800 h) peak in the percent of dividing cells. The maximum percent of dividing cells varied among cultures (8-27 %) and was related to the growth rate. A small fraction of dividing cells (3-5 %) remained throughout the dark period, suggesting that some cells were arrested in the doublet stage prior to division. The duration of division (t(d)) ranged from 2.6-4.9 h, with a 3.7 h mean for cultures with growth rates greater-than-or-equal-to 0.34 d-1 but increased to 8 h at a lower growth rate of 0.20 d-1.
The diel division pattern for natural populations was very similar to the laboratory clone; an afternoon peak (1400-2100 h) in dividing cells and a small fraction of dividing cells (2-5 %) remained during the dark period. The maximum percent of dividing cells for natural populations ranged from 6-10 %. In situ growth rates, determined from the FDC and assuming a constant t(d) of 3.7 h, ranged from 0.30-0.42 d-1. The FDC method may provide accurate estimates of in situ growth, particularly in environments where the growth rate is > 0.34 d-1, but in lakes Huron and Michigan where growth rates can be lower and t(d) values may increase, FDC-growth rates must be viewed with caution.

TI THE INTELLIGENT CONTROL OF AN INERT-GAS ATOMIZATION PROCESS
SO JOM-JOURNAL OF THE MINERALS METALS & MATERIALS SOCIETY
LA English
DT Article
AB Intelligent control is an attempt to specify the function of a controller in ways which mimic the decision-making capabilities of humans. Traditionally, issues relating to the emulation of human-like capabilities have fallen in the domain of artificial intelligence. Intelligent processing is a specific form of intelligent control in which the system to be controlled is a process rather than the more conventional mechanical or electrical system. The National Institute of Standards and Technology's program on intelligent processing of metal powders is a multi-disciplinary research initiative investigating the application of intelligent control technologies to improve the state of the art of metal powder manufacturing. This paper reviews the design of the institute's supersonic inert-gas metal-atomizer control system.

AB A technique was developed based on Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy in the multiple internal reflection mode (FTIR-MIR) for measuring in situ water at the coating/metal interface. The technique requires a direct application of a transparent or opaque polymer coating of any thickness to a Ge internal reflection element (IRE). A water chamber was attached to the polymer-coated IRE and water was introduced through the chamber inlet. FTIR-MIR spectra were taken automatically at specified time intervals without realignment or readjustment of the ATR accessory and without disturbing the specimens or the conditions of the experiment. The intensities of the water bands increased and those of the coating bands decreased initially and then leveled off as the exposure times increased. Calculations are presented to demonstrate that the technique can provide information on water at the coating/metal interface. The method may also provide a convenient means for measuring the diffusion of polymer coatings on metals.

TI IMPACT OF 2 MICROPHYSICAL SCHEMES UPON GAS SCAVENGING AND DEPOSITION IN

SO JOURNAL OF APPLIED METEOROLOGY

DT Article
ID CLOUD DROP GROWTH; COLLECTION; SIMULATION; RAIN; AIR
AB Two widely used microphysical schemes are compared to evaluate their possible impact on wet deposition mechanisms. They are based upon different spectral distributions for raindrops (Marshall-Palmer and lognormal distributions) and use different formulations for the autoconversion and evaporation processes, as well as for the fall velocity of raindrops. A comparative study of these two schemes is carried out for a two-dimensional mountain wave simulation in a mesoscale meteorological model. Differences in the spatial and temporal evolution of microphysical fields are investigated. The two schemes are compared for simple chemical scenarios: gas dissolution in cloud and rain, gas scavenging by raindrops, and wet deposition. Results contrast the differing behavior of the two schemes in describing processes such as the direct scavenging of gases by raindrops and the release of chemical species back into the atmosphere because of below-cloud evaporation of rain.

AB Single-energy Fe implantation at energies in the range 50 keV-2MeV to achieve a peak Fe concentration of 1-2x10(18) cm-3 is performed into undoped (n-type) InGaAs layers grown on InP:Fe. The first four statistical moments of the Fe profiles measured by secondary-ion mass spectrometry are determined. The Pearson IV distribution calculated from these moments matches the implant-profile closely. Samples implanted with Fe to doses in the range 5x10(12)-2x10(15) cm-2 at 380 keV are analyzed by Rutherford backscattering measurements to study ion-induced damage. For 380-keV implants, amorphization begins at a dose of almost-equal-to 3 x 10(13)cm-2.

AB The structure of the gas-phase trimeric complex H2O-H2O-CO2 is determined through an analysis of the rotational spectra of ten isotopically substituted species. These spectra were measured in the region between 7.5 and 18 GHz using a pulsed-molecular-beam Fourier-transform microwave spectrometer. The nondeuterated species display two sets of transitions separated by approximately 1 MHz. The splittings of the perdeuterated form are smaller and three partially deuterated forms have no splittings. The rotational constants for the lower frequency set of transitions of the normal species are A = 6163.571(4) MHz, B = 2226.157(2) MHz, C = 1638.972(1) MHz, delta-J = 0.000 83(3) MHz, DELTA-J = 0.002 98(4) MHz, DELTA-JK = -0.0005(2) MHz. The differences in the rotational constants between the upper and lower states are DELTA-A = 498 kHz, DELTA-B = 520 kHz, and DELTA-C = -133 kHz. The dipole moments are mu-a = 1.571(5) D and mu-b = 0.761(4) D with mu-c = 0 D. The dipole moments and the intertial defect of -0.620 u-angstrom-2 both indicate an essentially planar complex. The structure is found to be cyclical with the dimer-type bond lengths within the trimer being approximately the same as those found in the free heterodimers. One water molecule is oxygen bound to the carbon atom of the CO2 and is also hydrogen bonded to the oxygen of the second water molecule. The second water molecule is in turn hydrogen bonded to one of the oxygens of the CO2 molecule. The observed splittings are most likely due to a hydrogen-exchanging internal rotation of this second water molecule.

AB The near-infrared spectrum of NeDF formed in a slit free jet expansion is recorded with a high resolution, tunable laser spectrometer. Four bands, consisting of the DF stretching fundamental and three internal rotation and van der Waals stretch combination bands, are observed and analyzed for both the Ne-20 and Ne-22 isotopomers. All three combination bands reveal a sudden onset of rotational predissociation at modest J, which is modeled with effective one-dimensional potentials to determine the binding energy D0 = 34. 34.7 +/- 0.8 cm-1 for (NeDF)-Ne-20 (upsilon = 0) and D0 = 35.1 +/- 0.8 cm-1 for (NeDF)-Ne-20 (upsilon = 1). The experimental results are compared with predictions of a recently published ab initio anisotropic potential surface, and an improved potential is developed and tested. This refined potential has an absolute minimum of -86 cm-1 in the linear Ne-D-F geometry, a secondary minimum at -55 cm-1 in the inverted linear Ne-F-D geometry, and an intervening saddle point at -39 cm-1 near the perpendicular geometry. The lowest bound state lies almost-equal-to 4 cm-1 above the saddle so internal DF rotation is only slightly hindered in this complex.

AB NH stretching overtone and combination states in HN3 X approximately 1A' were excited by IR-visible double resonance pumping and by direct overtone pumping in the range 6v1 (17 670 cm-1) to 7v1 (20 070 cm-1). NH fragments in the a 1-delta and X3-SIGMA- states were detected by laser induced fluorescence with sub-Doppler resolution to determine branching ratios, correlated fragment rotational state and kinetic energy distributions, and fragment vector correlations. The spin-forbidden triplet channel was accessible to all states excited, while the threshold for the singlet channel was determined to lie in the range 18 190 to 18 755 cm-1. The measured energy release places limits on the HN-NN bond energy, and the heights of barriers to reaction. The barrier in the singlet exit channel is at least 540 cm-1. The singlet channel accessed by 7v1 dissociation is characterized by a Boltzmann-like NH rotational distribution ([J(NH)] almost-equal-to 3.5) highly excited N2 rotations ([J(N2)] greater-than-or-equal-to 20), and total translational energy release peaked away from zero ([E(T)] almost-equal-to 1350 cm-1). Vector correlations and LAMBDA-doublet propensities indicate that nonplanar dissociation processes influence the NH rotations, but become less important for higher NH rotational states. The principal correlations are a strong positive recoil anisotropy (BETA almost-equal-to 0.6), a weak positive v-J correlation (BETA-vJ almost-equal-to 0.17), and a J(NH)-dependent LAMBDA-doublet propensity. A model using parent vibrational motion projected onto fragment rotation is suggested to explain these observations. The triplet channel exhibits similar NH and N2 rotational state distributions, with most of the available energy (substantially greater than in the singlet channel) appearing as fragment kinetic energy.
