TI Uncertainties in estimating mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants in China SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID GASEOUS ELEMENTAL MERCURY; ATMOSPHERIC MERCURY; DEPOSITION; ASIA; COMBUSTION; INVENTORY; GUIZHOU AB A detailed multiple-year inventory of mercury emissions from anthropogenic activities in China has been developed. Coal combustion and nonferrous metals production continue to be the two leading mercury sources in China, together contributing similar to 80% of total mercury emissions. However, many uncertainties still remain in our knowledge of primary anthropogenic releases of mercury to the atmosphere in China. In situations involving large uncertainties, our previous mercury emission inventory that used a deterministic approach could produce results that might not be a true reflection of reality; and in such cases stochastic simulations incorporating uncertainties need to be performed. Within our inventory, a new comprehensive sub-module for estimation of mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants in China is constructed as an uncertainty case study. The new sub-module integrates up-to-date information regarding mercury content in coal by province, coal washing and cleaning, coal consumption by province, mercury removal efficiencies by control technology or technology combinations, etc. Based on these detailed data, probability-based distribution functions are built into the sub-module to address the uncertainties of these key parameters. The sub-module incorporates Monte Carlo simulations to take into account the probability distributions of key input parameters and produce the mercury emission results in the form of a statistical distribution. For example, the best estimate for total mercury emissions from coal-fired power plants in China in 2003 is 90.5 Mg, with the uncertainty range from 57.1 Mg (P10) to 154.6 Mg (P90); and the best estimate for elemental mercury emissions is 43.0 Mg, with the uncertainty range from 25.6 Mg (P10) to 75.7 Mg (P90). The results further indicate that the majority of the uncertainty in mercury emission estimation comes from two factors: mercury content of coal and mercury removal efficiency. C1 [Wu, Y.; Wang, S.

SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID MIXED-PHASE CLOUDS; ANTHROPOGENIC SULFATE AEROSOLS; GENERAL-CIRCULATION MODELS; CLIMATE SYSTEM PROPERTIES; MODIS SATELLITE DATA; GLOBAL CLIMATE; SPECTRAL DISPERSION; SULFUR CYCLE; BLACK CARBON; SENSITIVITY AB Uncertainties in aerosol radiative forcings, especially those associated with clouds, contribute to a large extent to uncertainties in the total anthropogenic forcing. The interaction of aerosols with clouds and radiation introduces feedbacks which can affect the rate of precipitation formation. In former assessments of aerosol radiative forcings, these effects have not been quantified. Also, with global aerosol-climate models simulating interactively aerosols and cloud microphysical properties, a quantification of the aerosol forcings in the traditional way is difficult to define properly. Here we argue that fast feedbacks should be included because they act quickly compared with the time scale of global warming. We show that for different forcing agents (aerosols and greenhouse gases) the radiative forcings as traditionally defined agree rather well with estimates from a method, here referred to as radiative flux perturbations (RFP), that takes these fast feedbacks and interactions into account. Based on our results, we recommend RFP as a valid option to compare different forcing agents, and to compare the effects of particular forcing agents in different models.

SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID SEA-SURFACE TEMPERATURE; INDIAN-OCEAN EXPERIMENT; PACIFIC WARM POOL; MARITIME CONTINENT; FOREST-FIRES; BLACK CARBON; CLIMATE; SATELLITE; RAINFALL; CYCLE AB During El Nino years, fires in tropical forests and peatlands in equatorial Asia create large regional smoke clouds. We characterized the sensitivity of these clouds to regional drought, and we investigated their effects on climate by using an atmospheric general circulation model. Satellite observations during 2000-2006 indicated that El Nino-induced regional drought led to increases in fire emissions and, consequently, increases in aerosol optical depths over Sumatra, Borneo and the surrounding ocean. Next, we used the Community Atmosphere Model (CAM) to investigate how climate responded to this forcing. We conducted two 30 year simulations in which monthly fire emissions were prescribed for either a high (El Nino, 1997) or low (La Nina, 2000) fire year using a satellite-derived time series of fire emissions. Our simulations included the direct and semi-direct effects of aerosols on the radiation budget within the model. We assessed the radiative and climate effects of anthropogenic fire by analyzing the differences between the high and low fire simulations. Fire aerosols reduced net shortwave radiation at the surface during August-October by 19.1 +/- 12.9 W m(-2) (10%) in a region that encompassed most of Sumatra and Borneo (90 degrees E-120 degrees E, 5 degrees S-5 degrees N). The reductions in net shortwave radiation cooled sea surface temperatures (SSTs) and land surface temperatures by 0.5 +/- 0.3 and 0.4 +/- 0.2 degrees C during these months. Tropospheric heating from black carbon (BC) absorption averaged 20.5 +/- 9.3 W m(-2) and was balanced by a reduction in latent heating. The combination of decreased SSTs and increased atmospheric heating reduced regional precipitation by 0.9 +/- 0.6 mm d(-1) (10%). The vulnerability of ecosystems to fire was enhanced because the decreases in precipitation exceeded those for evapotranspiration. Together, the satellite and modeling results imply a possible positive feedback loop in which anthropogenic burning in the region intensifies drought stress during El Nino. C1 [Tosca, M.

TI Black carbon aerosols and the third polar ice cap SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID CLOUD MICROPHYSICS; CLIMATE; IMPACTS; INDIA; TRENDS; MODEL; SNOW; SOOT; ASIA; SEA AB Recent thinning of glaciers over the Himalayas (sometimes referred to as the third polar region) have raised concern on future water supplies since these glaciers supply water to large river systems that support millions of people inhabiting the surrounding areas. Black carbon (BC) aerosols, released from incomplete combustion, have been increasingly implicated as causing large changes in the hydrology and radiative forcing over Asia and its deposition on snow is thought to increase snow melt. In India BC emissions from biofuel combustion is highly prevalent and compared to other regions, BC aerosol amounts are high. Here, we quantify the impact of BC aerosols on snow cover and precipitation from 1990 to 2010 over the Indian subcontinental region using two different BC emission inventories. New estimates indicate that Indian BC emissions from coal and biofuel are large and transport is expected to expand rapidly in coming years. We show that over the Himalayas, from 1990 to 2000, simulated snow/ice cover decreases by similar to 0.9% due to aerosols. The contribution of the enhanced Indian BC to this decline is similar to 36%, similar to that simulated for 2000 to 2010. Spatial patterns of modeled changes in snow cover and precipitation are similar to observations (from 1990 to 2000), and are mainly obtained with the newer BC estimates.

TI The PreVOCA experiment: modeling the lower troposphere in the Southeast Pacific SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID COMMUNITY ATMOSPHERE MODEL; GENERAL-CIRCULATION MODELS; LAYER MIXING SCHEME; LARGE-SCALE MODELS; LIQUID WATER PATH; PART I; CLIMATE MODEL; MICROPHYSICAL PROCESSES; BULK PARAMETERIZATION; OROGRAPHIC INFLUENCES AB The Preliminary VOCALS Model Assessment (PreVOCA) aims to assess contemporary atmospheric modeling of the subtropical South East Pacific, with a particular focus on the clouds and the marine boundary layer (MBL). Models results from fourteen modeling centers were collected including operational forecast models, regional models, and global climate models for the month of October 2006. Forecast models and global climate models produced daily forecasts, while most regional models were run continuously during the study period, initialized and forced at the boundaries with global model analyses. Results are compared in the region from 40 degrees S to the equator and from 110 degrees W to 70 degrees W, corresponding to the Pacific coast of South America. Mean-monthly model surface winds agree well with QuikSCAT observed winds and models agree fairly well on mean weak large-scale subsidence in the region next to the coast. However they have greatly differing geographic patterns of mean cloud fraction with only a few models agreeing well with MODIS observations. Most models also underestimate the MBL depth by several hundred meters in the eastern part of the study region. The diurnal cycle of liquid water path is underestimated by most models at the 85 degrees W 20 degrees S stratus buoy site compared with satellite, consistent with previous modeling studies. The low cloud fraction is also underestimated during all parts of the diurnal cycle compared to surface-based climatologies. Most models qualitatively capture the MBL deepening around 15 October 2006 at the stratus buoy, associated with colder air at 700 hPa. C1 [Wyant, M. C.; Wood, R.; Bretherton, C.

TI CCN predictions using simplified assumptions of organic aerosol composition and mixing state: a synthesis from six different locations SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID CLOUD CONDENSATION NUCLEI; SIZE-RESOLVED MEASUREMENTS; HYGROSCOPIC PROPERTIES; CHEMICAL-COMPOSITION; ATMOSPHERIC AEROSOL; MASS-SPECTROMETRY; GROWTH; PARTICLES; CHEMISTRY; CLOSURE AB An accurate but simple quantification of the fraction of aerosol particles that can act as cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) is needed for implementation in large-scale models. Data on aerosol size distribution, chemical composition, and CCN concentration from six different locations have been analyzed to explore the extent to which simple assumptions of composition and mixing state of the organic fraction can reproduce measured CCN number concentrations. Fresher pollution aerosol as encountered in Riverside, CA, and the ship channel in Houston, TX, cannot be represented without knowledge of more complex (size-resolved) composition. For aerosol that has experienced processing (Mexico City, Holme Moss (UK), Point Reyes (CA), and Chebogue Point (Canada)), CCN can be predicted within a factor of two assuming either externally or internally mixed soluble organics although these simplified compositions/mixing states might not represent the actual properties of ambient aerosol populations, in agreement with many previous CCN studies in the literature. Under typical conditions, a factor of two uncertainty in CCN concentration due to composition assumptions translates to an uncertainty of similar to 15% in cloud drop concentration, which might be adequate for large-scale models given the much larger uncertainty in cloudiness.

TI Mexico city aerosol analysis during MILAGRO using high resolution aerosol mass spectrometry at the urban supersite (T0) - Part 2: Analysis of the biomass burning contribution and the non-fossil carbon fraction SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID SECONDARY ORGANIC AEROSOL; SOURCE APPORTIONMENT; AIR-POLLUTION; CHEMICAL-COMPOSITION; FIELD CAMPAIGN; MCMA-2003 CAMPAIGN; METROPOLITAN-AREA; AMBIENT AEROSOLS; HYDROCARBON-LIKE; NORTH-AMERICA AB Submicron aerosol was analyzed during the MILAGRO field campaign in March 2006 at the T0 urban supersite in Mexico City with a High-Resolution Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) and complementary instrumentation. Positive Matrix Factorization (PMF) of high resolution AMS spectra identified a biomass burning organic aerosol (BBOA) component, which includes several large plumes that appear to be from forest fires within the region. Here, we show that the AMS BBOA concentration at T0 correlates with fire counts in the vicinity of Mexico City and that most of the BBOA variability is captured when the FLEXPART model is used for the dispersion of fire emissions as estimated from satellite fire counts. The resulting FLEXPART fire impact factor (FIF) correlates well with the observed BBOA, acetonitrile (CH3CN), levoglucosan, and potassium, indicating that wildfires in the region surrounding Mexico City are the dominant source of BBOA at T0 during MILAGRO. The impact of distant BB sources such as the Yucatan is small during this period. All fire tracers are correlated, with BBOA and levoglucosan showing little background, acetonitrile having a well-known tropospheric background of similar to 100-150 pptv, and PM2.5 potassium having a background of similar to 160 ng m(-3) (two-thirds of its average concentration), which does not appear to be related to BB sources. We define two high fire periods based on satellite fire counts and FLEXPART-predicted FIFs. We then compare these periods with a low fire period when the impact of regional fires is about a factor of 5 smaller. Fire tracers are very elevated in the high fire periods whereas tracers of urban pollution do not change between these periods. Dust is also elevated during the high BB period but this appears to be coincidental due to the drier conditions and not driven by direct dust emission from the fires. The AMS oxygenated organic aerosol (OA) factor (OOA, mostly secondary OA or SOA) does not show an increase during the fire periods or a correlation with fire counts, FLEXPART-predicted FIFs or fire tracers, indicating that it is dominated by urban and/or regional sources and not by the fires near the MCMA. A new C-14 aerosol dataset is presented. Both this new and a previously published dataset of 14C analysis suggest a similar BBOA contribution as the AMS and chemical mass balance (CMB), resulting in 13% higher non-fossil carbon during the high vs. low regional fire periods. The new dataset has similar to 15% more fossil carbon on average than the previously published one, and possible reasons for this discrepancy are discussed. During the low regional fire period, 38% of organic carbon (OC) and 28% total carbon (TC) are from non-fossil sources, suggesting the importance of urban and regional non-fossil carbon sources other than the fires, such as food cooking and regional biogenic SOA. The ambient BBOA/Delta CH3CN ratio is much higher in the afternoon when the wildfires are most intense than during the rest of the day. Also, there are large differences in the contributions of the different OA components to the surface concentrations vs. the integrated column amounts. Both facts may explain some apparent disagreements between BB impacts estimated from afternoon aircraft flights vs. those from 24-h ground measurements. We show that by properly accounting for the non-BB sources of K, all of the BB PM estimates from MILAGRO can be reconciled. Overall, the fires from the region near the MCMA are estimated to contribute 15-23% of the OA and 7-9% of the fine PM at T0 during MILAGRO, and 2-3% of the fine PM as an annual average. The 2006 MCMA emissions inventory contains a substantially lower impact of the forest fire emissions, although a fraction of these emissions occur just outside of the MCMA inventory area.

TI Cirrus clouds in a global climate model with a statistical cirrus cloud scheme SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID MESOSCALE TEMPERATURE-FLUCTUATIONS; COMMUNITY ATMOSPHERE MODEL; HETEROGENEOUS ICE NUCLEATION; GENERAL-CIRCULATION MODELS; CRYSTAL NUMBER DENSITIES; MICROWAVE IMAGER SSM/I; IN-SITU OBSERVATIONS; LARGE-SCALE MODELS; TROPICAL TROPOPAUSE; UPPER TROPOSPHERE AB A statistical cirrus cloud scheme that accounts for mesoscale temperature perturbations is implemented in a coupled aerosol and atmospheric circulation model to better represent both subgrid-scale supersaturation and cloud formation. This new scheme treats the effects of aerosol on cloud formation and ice freezing in an improved manner, and both homogeneous freezing and heterogeneous freezing are included. The scheme is able to better simulate the observed probability distribution of relative humidity compared to the scheme that was implemented in an older version of the model. Heterogeneous ice nuclei (IN) are shown to decrease the frequency of occurrence of supersaturation, and improve the comparison with observations at 192 hPa. Homogeneous freezing alone can not reproduce observed ice crystal number concentrations at low temperatures (< 205 K), but the addition of heterogeneous IN improves the comparison somewhat. Increases in heterogeneous IN affect both high level cirrus clouds and low level liquid clouds. Increases in cirrus clouds lead to a more cloudy and moist lower troposphere with less precipitation, effects which we associate with the decreased convective activity. The change in the net cloud forcing is not very sensitive to the change in ice crystal concentrations, but the change in the net radiative flux at the top of the atmosphere is still large because of changes in water vapor. Changes in the magnitude of the assumed mesoscale temperature perturbations by 25% alter the ice crystal number concentrations and the net radiative fluxes by an amount that is comparable to that from a factor of 10 change in the heterogeneous IN number concentrations. Further improvements on the representation of mesoscale temperature perturbations, heterogeneous IN and the competition between homogeneous freezing and heterogeneous freezing are needed.

TI Modeling organic aerosols in a megacity: potential contribution of semi-volatile and intermediate volatility primary organic compounds to secondary organic aerosol formation SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID MEXICO-CITY; MASS-SPECTROMETRY; HIGH-RESOLUTION; EMISSIONS; ATMOSPHERE; EVOLUTION; SIMULATION; COMPONENTS; PARTICLES; OXIDATION AB It has been established that observed local and regional levels of secondary organic aerosols (SOA) in polluted areas cannot be explained by the oxidation and partitioning of anthropogenic and biogenic VOC precursors, at least using current mechanisms and parameterizations. In this study, the 3-D regional air quality model CHIMERE is applied to estimate the potential contribution to SOA formation of recently identified semi-volatile and intermediate volatility organic precursors (S/IVOC) in and around Mexico City for the MILAGRO field experiment during March 2006. The model has been updated to include explicitly the volatility distribution of primary organic aerosols (POA), their gas-particle partitioning and the gas-phase oxidation of the vapors. Two recently proposed parameterizations, those of Robinson et al. (2007) ("ROB") and Grieshop et al. (2009) ("GRI") are compared and evaluated against surface and aircraft measurements. The 3-D model results are assessed by comparing with the concentrations of OA components from Positive Matrix Factorization of Aerosol Mass Spectrometer (AMS) data, and for the first time also with oxygen-to-carbon ratios derived from high-resolution AMS measurements. The results show a substantial enhancement in predicted SOA concentrations (2-4 times) with respect to the previously published base case without S/IVOCs (Hodzic et al., 2009), both within and downwind of the city leading to much reduced discrepancies with the total OA measurements. Model improvements in OA predictions are associated with the better-captured SOA magnitude and diurnal variability. The predicted production from anthropogenic and biomass burning S/IVOC represents 40-60% of the total measured SOA at the surface during the day and is somewhat larger than that from commonly measured aromatic VOCs, especially at the T1 site at the edge of the city. The SOA production from the continued multi-generation S/IVOC oxidation products continues actively downwind. Similar to aircraft observations, the predicted OA/1 CO ratio for the ROB case increases from 20-30 mu g sm(-3) ppm(-1) up to 60-70 mu g sm(-3) ppm(-1) between a fresh and 1-day aged air mass, while the GRI case produces a 30% higher OA growth than observed. The predicted average O/C ratio of total OA for the ROB case is 0.16 at T0, substantially below observed value of 0.5. A much better agreement for O/C ratios and temporal variability (R-2=0.63) is achieved with the updated GRI treatment. Both treatments show a deficiency in regard to POA ageing with a tendency to over-evaporate POA upon dilution of the urban plume suggesting that atmospheric HOA may be less volatile than assumed in these parameterizations. This study highlights the important potential role of S/IVOC chemistry in the SOA budget in this region, and highlights the need for further improvements in available parameterizations. The agreement observed in this study is not sufficient evidence to conclude that S/IVOC are the major missing SOA source in megacity environments. The model is still very underconstrained, and discrepancies with the total OA measurements. Model improvements in OA predictions are associated with the better-captured SOA magnitude and diurnal variability. The predicted production from anthropogenic and biomass burning S/IVOC represents 40-60% of the total measured SOA at the surface during the day and is somewhat larger than that from commonly measured aromatic VOCs, especially at the T1 site at the edge of the city. The SOA production from the contined multi-generation S/IVOC oxidation products continues actively downwind. Similar to aircraft observations, the predicted OA/Delta CO ratio for the ROB case increases from 20-30 mu g sm(-3) ppm(-1) up to 60-70 mu g sm(-3) ppm(-1) between a fresh and 1-day aged air mass, while the GRI case produces a 30% higher OA growth than observed.

The agreement observed in this study is not sufficient evidence to conclude that S/IVOC are the major missing SOA source in megacity environments. The model is still very underconstrained, and other possible pathways such as formation from very volatile species like glyoxal may explain some of the mass and especially increase the O/C ratio.

TI Characterization of Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) CO2 for carbon cycle science SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID ATMOSPHERIC CO2; SATELLITE DATA; ABSOLUTE INTENSITIES; SOURCE INVERSIONS; WESTERN PACIFIC; LASER BANDS; SPACE; SINKS; DIOXIDE; (CO2)-C-12-O-16 AB We present carbon dioxide (CO2) estimates from the Tropospheric Emission Spectrometer (TES) on the EOS-Aura satellite launched in 2004. For observations between 40 degrees S and 45 degrees N, we find about 1 degree of freedom with peak sensitivity at 511 hPa. The estimated error is similar to 10 ppm for a single target and 1.3-2.3 ppm for monthly averages on spatial scales of 20 degrees x30 degrees. Monthly spatially-averaged TES data from 2005-2008 processed with a uniform initial guess and prior are compared to CONTRAIL aircraft data over the Pacific ocean, aircraft data at the Southern Great Plains (SGP) ARM site in the southern US, and the Mauna Loa and Samoa surface stations. Comparisons to Mauna Loa data show a correlation of 0.92, a standard deviation of 1.3 ppm, a predicted error of 1.2 ppm, and a similar to 2% low bias, which is subsequently corrected. Comparisons to SGP aircraft data over land show a correlation of 0.67 and a standard deviation of 2.3 ppm. TES data between 40 degrees S and 45 degrees N for 2006-2007 are compared to surface flask data, GLOBALVIEW, the Atmospheric Infrared Sounder (AIRS), and CarbonTracker. Comparison to GLOBALVIEW-CO2 ocean surface sites shows a correlation of 0.60 which drops when TES is offset in latitude, longitude, or time. At these same locations, TES shows a 0.62 and 0.67 correlation to Carbon-Tracker at the surface and 5 km, respectively. We also conducted an observing system simulation experiment to assess the potential utility of the TES data for inverse modeling of CO2 fluxes. We find that if biases in the data and model are well characterized, the averaged data have the potential to provide sufficient information to significantly reduce uncertainty on annual estimates of regional CO2 sources and sinks. Averaged pseudo-data at 10 degrees x10 degrees reduced uncertainty in flux estimates by as much as 70% for some tropical regions. C1 [Kulawik, S. S.; Irion, F. W.; Worden, J. R.; Bowman, K.

TI Global mercury emissions to the atmosphere from anthropogenic and natural sources SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID FIRED POWER-PLANTS; MEDITERRANEAN REGION; VOLCANIC EMISSIONS; COAL COMBUSTION; FOREST-FIRES; CHINA; DEPOSITION; INVENTORY; CYCLE; UNCERTAINTIES AB This paper provides an up-to-date assessment of global mercury emissions from anthropogenic and natural sources. On an annual basis, natural sources account for 5207 Mg of mercury released to the global atmosphere, including the contribution from re-emission processes, which are emissions of previously deposited mercury originating from anthropogenic and natural sources, and primary emissions from natural reservoirs. Anthropogenic sources, which include a large number of industrial point sources, are estimated to account for 2320 Mg of mercury emitted annually. The major contributions are from fossil-fuel fired power plants (810 Mg yr(-1)), artisanal small scale gold mining (400 Mg yr(-1)), non-ferrous metals manufacturing (310 Mg yr(-1)), cement production (236 Mg yr(-1)), waste disposal (187 Mg yr(-1)) and caustic soda production (163 Mg yr(-1)). Therefore, our current estimate of global mercury emissions suggests that the overall contribution from natural sources (primary emissions + re-emissions) and anthropogenic sources is nearly 7527 Mg per year, the uncertainty associated with these estimates are related to the typology of emission sources and source regions.

The MACR model and STEM-2K1 both used the PNNL model resolution of 0.45 degrees x 0.4 degrees in the horizontal and of 23 layers in the troposphere. The 2001-2004 averaged anthropogenic all-sky aerosol forcing is -1.3 Wm(-2) (TOA), +7.3 Wm(-2) (atmosphere) and -8.6 Wm(-2) (surface) averaged in Asia (60-138 degrees E and Equator -45 degrees N). In the absence of AERONET SSA assimilation, absorbing aerosol concentration (especially BC aerosol) is much smaller, giving -2.3 Wm(-2) (TOA), +4.5 Wm(-2) (atmosphere) and -6.8 Wm(-2) (surface), averaged in Asia. In the vertical, monthly forcing is mainly concentrated below 600 hPa with maximum around 800 hPa. Seasonally, low-level forcing is far larger in dry season than in wet season in South Asia, whereas the wet season forcing exceeds the dry season forcing in East Asia. The anthropogenic forcing in the present study is similar to that in Chung et al. (2005) in overall magnitude but the former offers fine-scale features and simulated vertical profiles. The interannual variability of the computed anthropogenic forcing is significant and extremely large over major emission outflow areas. Given the interannual variability, the present study's estimate is within the implicated range of the 1999 INDOEX result. C1 [Chung, C. E.] Gwangju Inst Sci & Technol, Kwangju, South Korea.

TI Regional-scale geostatistical inverse modeling of North American CO2 fluxes: a synthetic data study SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID ATMOSPHERIC TRANSPORT MODELS; CARBON-DIOXIDE; PART 1; EXCHANGE; VARIABILITY; CONTINENTS; EUROPE; LEARN; SINKS AB A series of synthetic data experiments is performed to investigate the ability of a regional atmospheric inversion to estimate grid-scale CO2 fluxes during the growing season over North America. The inversions are performed within a geostatistical framework without the use of any prior flux estimates or auxiliary variables, in order to focus on the atmospheric constraint provided by the nine towers collecting continuous, calibrated CO2 measurements in 2004. Using synthetic measurements and their associated concentration footprints, flux and model-data mismatch covariance parameters are first optimized, and then fluxes and their uncertainties are estimated at three different temporal resolutions. These temporal resolutions, which include a four-day average, a four-day-average diurnal cycle with 3-hourly increments, and 3-hourly fluxes, are chosen to help assess the impact of temporal aggregation errors on the estimated fluxes and covariance parameters. Estimating fluxes at a temporal resolution that can adjust the diurnal variability is found to be critical both for recovering covariance parameters directly from the atmospheric data, and for inferring accurate ecoregion-scale fluxes. Accounting for both spatial and temporal a priori covariance in the flux distribution is also found to be necessary for recovering accurate a posteriori uncertainty bounds on the estimated fluxes. Overall, the results suggest that even a fairly sparse network of 9 towers collecting continuous CO2 measurements across the continent, used with no auxiliary information or prior estimates of the flux distribution in time or space, can be used to infer relatively accurate monthly ecoregion scale CO2 surface fluxes over North America within estimated uncertainty bounds. Simulated random transport error is shown to decrease the quality of flux estimates in under-constrained areas at the ecoregion scale, although the uncertainty bounds remain realistic. While these synthetic data inversions do not consider all potential issues associated with using actual measurement data, e.g. systematic transport errors or problems with the boundary conditions, they help to highlight the impact of inversion setup choices, and help to provide a baseline set of CO2 fluxes for comparison with estimates from future real-data inversions.

TI Measured and modeled humidification factors of fresh smoke particles from biomass burning: role of inorganic constituents SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID RESOLUTION MASS-SPECTROMETRY; INDIVIDUAL AEROSOL-PARTICLES; ORGANIC-CARBON RATIO; OPTICAL-PROPERTIES; SOUTHERN AFRICA; MOLECULAR CHARACTERIZATION; HYGROSCOPIC PROPERTIES; ELECTRON-MICROSCOPY; RELATIVE-HUMIDITY; LIGHT-SCATTERING AB During the 2006 FLAME study (Fire Laboratory at Missoula Experiment), laboratory burns of biomass fuels were performed to investigate the physico-chemical, optical, and hygroscopic properties of fresh biomass smoke. As part of the experiment, two nephelometers simultaneously measured dry and humidified light scattering coefficients (b(sp(dry)) and b(sp(RH)), respectively) in order to explore the role of relative humidity (RH) on the optical properties of biomass smoke aerosols. Results from burns of several biomass fuels from the west and southeast United States showed large variability in the humidification factor (f(RH)=b(sp(RH))/b(sp(dry))). Values of f (RH) at RH=80-85% ranged from 0.99 to 1.81 depending on fuel type. We incorporated measured chemical composition and size distribution data to model the smoke hygroscopic growth to investigate the role of inorganic compounds on water uptake for these aerosols. By assuming only inorganic constituents were hygroscopic, we were able to model the water uptake within experimental uncertainty, suggesting that inorganic species were responsible for most of the hygroscopic growth. In addition, humidification factors at 80-85% RH increased for smoke with increasing inorganic salt to carbon ratios. Particle morphology as observed from scanning electron microscopy revealed that samples of hygroscopic particles contained soot chains either internally or externally mixed with inorganic potassium salts, while samples of weak to non-hygroscopic particles were dominated by soot and organic constituents. This study provides further understanding of the compounds responsible for water uptake by young biomass smoke, and is important for accurately assessing the role of smoke in climate change studies and visibility regulatory efforts.

TI Sulfur dioxide emissions in China and sulfur trends in East Asia since 2000 SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID OZONE MONITORING INSTRUMENT; MIYAKEJIMA VOLCANO; SO2 EMISSIONS; MT. TATEYAMA; AIR-QUALITY; ACID-RAIN; JAPAN; TRANSPORT; INVENTORY; AEROSOLS AB With the rapid development of the economy, the sulfur dioxide (SO2) emission from China since 2000 is of increasing concern. In this study, we estimate the annual SO2 emission in China after 2000 using a technology-based methodology specifically for China. From 2000 to 2006, total SO2 emission in China increased by 53%, from 21.7 Tg to 33.2 Tg, at an annual growth rate of 7.3%. Emissions from power plants are the main sources of SO2 in China and they increased from 10.6 Tg to 18.6 Tg in the same period. Geographically, emission from north China increased by 85%, whereas that from the south increased by only 28%. The emission growth rate slowed around 2005, and emissions began to decrease after 2006 mainly due to the wide application of flue-gas desulfurization (FGD) devices in power plants in response to a new policy of China's government. This paper shows that the trend of estimated SO2 emission in China is consistent with the trends of SO2 concentration and acid rain pH and frequency in China, as well as with the increasing trends of background SO2 and sulfate concentration in East Asia. A longitudinal gradient in the percentage change of urban SO2 concentration in Japan is found during 2000-2007, indicating that the decrease of urban SO2 is lower in areas close to the Asian continent. This implies that the transport of increasing SO2 from the Asian continent partially counteracts the local reduction of SO2 emission downwind. The aerosol optical depth (AOD) products of Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer (MODIS) are found to be highly correlated with the surface solar radiation (SSR) measurements in East Asia. Using MODIS AOD data as a surrogate of SSR, we found that China and East Asia excluding Japan underwent a continuous dimming after 2000, which is in line with the dramatic increase in SO2 emission in East Asia. The trends of AOD from both satellite retrievals and model over East Asia are also consistent with the trend of SO2 emission in China, especially during the second half of the year, when sulfur contributes the largest fraction of AOD. The arrested growth in SO2 emissions since 2006 is also reflected in the decreasing trends of SO2 and SO42- concentrations, acid rain pH values and frequencies, and AOD over East Asia.

TI Modelling microphysical and meteorological controls on precipitation and cloud cellular structures in Southeast Pacific stratocumulus SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID LARGE-EDDY SIMULATIONS; NOCTURNAL MARINE STRATOCUMULUS; DIURNAL CYCLE; SHALLOW CONVECTION; OPEN CELLS; WARM RAIN; PART II; MESOSCALE; DRIZZLE; AEROSOL AB Microphysical and meteorological controls on the formation of open and closed cellular structures in the Southeast Pacific are explored using model simulations based on aircraft observations during the VAMOS Ocean-Cloud-Atmosphere-Land Study Regional Experiment (VOCALS-REx). The effectiveness of factors such as boundary-layer moisture and temperature perturbations, surface heat and moisture fluxes, large-scale vertical motion and solar heating in promoting drizzle and open cell formation for prescribed aerosol number concentrations is explored. For the case considered, drizzle and subsequent open cell formation over a broad region are more sensitive to the observed boundary-layer moisture and temperature perturbations (+0.9 g kg(-1); -1 K) than to a five-fold decrease in aerosol number concentration (150 vs. 30 mg(-1)). When embedding the perturbations in closed cells, local drizzle and pockets of open cell (POC) formation respond faster to the aerosol reduction than to the moisture increase, but the latter generates stronger and more persistent drizzle. A local negative perturbation in temperature drives a mesoscale circulation that prevents local drizzle formation but promotes it in a remote area where lower-level horizontal transport of moisture is blocked and converges to enhance liquid water path. This represents a potential mechanism for POC formation in the Southeast Pacific stratocumulus region whereby the circulation is triggered by strong precipitation in adjacent broad regions of open cells. A simulation that attempts to mimic the influence of a coastally induced upsidence wave results in an increase in cloud water but this alone is insufficient to initiate drizzle. An increase of surface sensible heat flux is also effective in triggering local drizzle and POC formation. Both open and closed cells simulated with observed initial conditions exhibit distinct diurnal variations in cloud properties. A stratocumulus deck that breaks up due solely to solar heating can recover at night. Precipitation in the open-cell cases depletes the aerosol to the extent that cloud formation is significantly suppressed within one diurnal cycle. A replenishment rate of cloud condensation nuclei of order 1 mg(-1) h(-1) is sufficient to maintain clouds and prevent the boundary layer from collapsing the following day, suggesting that some local and/or remote aerosol sources is necessary for POCs to be able to last for days.

TI Brown carbon in tar balls from smoldering biomass combustion SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID LOW-PRESSURE IMPACTOR; OPTICAL-PROPERTIES; LIGHT-ABSORPTION; SUBSTANCES HULIS; REFRACTIVE-INDEX; AEROSOLS; SPECTROMETER; PARTICLES; EMISSIONS; FOREST AB We report the direct observation of laboratory production of spherical, carbonaceous particles - "tar balls" - from smoldering combustion of two commonly occurring dry mid-latitude fuels. Real-time measurements of spectrally varying absorption Angstrom coefficients (AAC) indicate that a class of light absorbing organic carbon (OC) with wavelength dependent imaginary part of its refractive index - optically defined as "brown carbon" - is an important component of tar balls. The spectrum of the imaginary parts of their complex refractive indices can be described with a Lorentzian-like model with an effective resonance wavelength in the ultraviolet (UV) spectral region. Sensitivity calculations for aerosols containing traditional OC (no absorption at visible and UV wavelengths) and brown carbon suggest that accounting for near-UV absorption by brown carbon leads to an increase in aerosol radiative forcing efficiency and increased light absorption. Since particles from smoldering combustion account for nearly three-fourths of the total carbonaceous aerosol mass emitted globally, inclusion of the optical properties of tar balls into radiative forcing models has significance for the Earth's radiation budget, optical remote sensing, and understanding of anomalous UV absorption in the troposphere.

TI Tropospheric aerosol size distributions simulated by three online global aerosol models using the M7 microphysics module SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID GENERAL-CIRCULATION MODEL; COMMUNITY CLIMATE MODEL; DRY DEPOSITION PARAMETERIZATION; SEMI-LAGRANGIAN TRANSPORT; SEA-SALT AEROSOL; 3-DIMENSIONAL MODEL; CUMULUS CONVECTION; CLOUD MICROPHYSICS; ATMOSPHERIC MODELS; NUCLEATION RATES AB Tropospheric aerosol size distributions are simulated by three online global models which employ exactly the same aerosol microphysics module, but differ in many aspects such as model meteorology, natural aerosol emission, sulfur chemistry, and deposition processes. The main purpose of this study is to identify the influence of these differences on the aerosol simulation. Number concentrations of different aerosol size ranges are compared among the three models and against observations. Overall all three models are able to capture the basic features of the observed spatial distribution. The magnitude of number concentration is consistent among the three models in all size ranges, although quantitative differences are also clearly detectable. For the soluble and insoluble coarse and accumulation modes, intermodel discrepancies result primarily from the different parameterization schemes for sea salt and dust emission, and are also linked to the different strengths of the convective transport in the meteorological models. As for the nucleation mode and the soluble Aitken mode, the spread of model results appear largest in the tropics and in the middle and upper troposphere. Diagnostics and sensitivity experiments suggest that this large spread is directly related to the sulfur cycle in the models, which is strongly affected by the choice of sulfur chemistry scheme, its coupling with the convective transport and wet deposition calculation, and the related meteorological fields such as cloud cover, cloud water content, and precipitation. Aerosol size distributions simulated by the three models are compared against observations in the boundary layer. The characteristic shape and magnitude of the distribution functions are reasonably reproduced in typical conditions of clean, polluted and transition areas.

TI Tomographic retrieval of cloud liquid water fields from a single scanning microwave radiometer aboard a moving platform - Part 1: Field trial results from the Wakasa Bay experiment SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID TOTAL-VARIATION MINIMIZATION; RECONSTRUCTION; PRECIPITATION; SURFACE; VAPOR; ART AB Tomographic methods offer great potential for retrieving three-dimensional spatial distributions of cloud liquid water from radiometric observations by passive microwave sensors. Fixed tomographic systems require multiple radiometers, while mobile systems can use just a single radiometer. Part 1 (this paper) examines the results from a limited cloud tomography trial with a single-radiometer airborne system carried out as part of the 2003 AMSR-E validation campaign over Wakasa Bay of the Sea of Japan. During this trial, the Polarimetric Scanning Radiometer (PSR) and Microwave Imaging Radiometer (MIR) aboard the NASA P-3 research aircraft provided a useful dataset for testing the cloud tomography method over a system of low-level clouds. We do tomographic retrievals with a constrained inversion algorithm using three configurations: PSR, MIR, and combined PSR and MIR data. The liquid water paths from the PSR retrieval are consistent with those from the MIR retrieval. The retrieved cloud field based on the combined data appears to be physically plausible and consistent with the cloud image obtained by a cloud radar. We find that some vertically-uniform clouds appear at high altitudes in the retrieved field where the radar shows clear sky. This is likely due to the sub-optimal data collection strategy. This sets the stage for Part 2 of this study that aims to define optimal data collection strategies using observation system simulation experiments.

TI Tomographic retrieval of cloud liquid water fields from a single scanning microwave radiometer aboard a moving platform - Part 2: Observation system simulation experiments SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID MODEL; RADAR AB Part 1 of this research concluded that many conditions of the 2003 Wakasa Bay experiment were not optimal for the purpose of tomographic retrieval. Part 2 (this paper) then aims to find possible improvements to the mobile cloud tomography method using observation system simulation experiments. We demonstrate that the incorporation of the L(1) norm total variation regularization in the tomographic retrieval algorithm better reproduces discontinuous structures than the widely used L(2) norm Tikhonov regularization. The simulation experiments reveal that a typical ground-based mobile setup substantially outperforms an airborne one because the ground-based setup usually moves slower and has greater contrast in microwave brightness between clouds and the background. It is shown that, as expected, the error in the cloud tomography retrievals increases monotonically with both the radiometer noise level and the uncertainty in the estimate of background brightness temperature. It is also revealed that a lower speed of platform motion or a faster scanning radiometer results in more scan cycles and more overlap between the swaths of successive scan cycles, both of which help to improve the retrieval accuracy. The last factor examined is aircraft height. It is found that the optimal aircraft height is 0.5 to 1.0 km above the cloud top. To summarize, this research demonstrates the feasibility of tomographically retrieving the spatial structure of cloud liquid water using current microwave radiometric technology and provides several general guidelines to improve future field-based studies of cloud tomography.

TI An investigation of the sub-grid variability of trace gases and aerosols for global climate modeling SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID HETEROGENEOUS LAND SURFACES; SECONDARY ORGANIC AEROSOLS; MEXICO-CITY BASIN; WRF-CHEM MODEL; AIR-QUALITY; MCMA-2003 CAMPAIGN; FIELD CAMPAIGN; NORTH-AMERICA; CLOUD; PARAMETERIZATION AB One fundamental property and limitation of grid based models is their inability to identify spatial details smaller than the grid cell size. While decades of work have gone into developing sub-grid treatments for clouds and land surface processes in climate models, the quantitative understanding of sub-grid processes and variability for aerosols and their precursors is much poorer. In this study, WRF-Chem is used to simulate the trace gases and aerosols over central Mexico during the 2006 MILAGRO field campaign, with multiple spatial resolutions and emission/terrain scenarios. Our analysis focuses on quantifying the sub-grid variability (SGV) of trace gases and aerosols within a typical global climate model grid cell, i.e. 75x75 km(2). Our results suggest that a simulation with 3-km horizontal grid spacing adequately reproduces the overall transport and mixing of trace gases and aerosols downwind of Mexico City, while 75-km horizontal grid spacing is insufficient to represent local emission and terrain-induced flows along the mountain ridge, subsequently affecting the transport and mixing of plumes from nearby sources. Therefore, the coarse model grid cell average may not correctly represent aerosol properties measured over polluted areas. Probability density functions (PDFs) for trace gases and aerosols show that secondary trace gases and aerosols, such as O-3, sulfate, ammonium, and nitrate, are more likely to have a relatively uniform probability distribution (i.e. smaller SGV) over a narrow range of concentration values. Mostly inert and long-lived trace gases and aerosols, such as CO and BC, are more likely to have broad and skewed distributions (i.e. larger SGV) over polluted regions. Over remote areas, all trace gases and aerosols are more uniformly distributed compared to polluted areas. Both CO and O-3 SGV vertical profiles are nearly constant within the PBL during daytime, indicating that trace gases are very efficiently transported and mixed vertically by turbulence. But, simulated horizontal variability indicates that trace gases and aerosols are not well mixed horizontally in the PBL. During nighttime the SGV for trace gases is maximum at the surface, and quickly decreases with height. Unlike the trace gases, the SGV of BC and secondary aerosols reaches a maximum at the PBL top during the day. The SGV decreases with distance away from the polluted urban area, has a more rapid decrease for long-lived trace gases and aerosols than for secondary ones, and is greater during daytime than nighttime. The SGV of trace gases and aerosols is generally larger than for meteorological quantities. Emissions can account for up to 50% of the SGV over urban areas such as Mexico City during daytime for less-reactive trace gases and aerosols, such as CO and BC. The impact of emission spatial variability on SGV decays with altitude in the PBL and is insignificant in the free troposphere. The emission variability affects SGV more significantly during daytime (rather than nighttime) and over urban (rather than rural or remote) areas. The terrain, through its impact on meteorological fields such as wind and the PBL structure, affects dispersion and transport of trace gases and aerosols and their SGV. C1 [Qian, Y.; Gustafson, W.

TI Impacts of transported background ozone on California air quality during the ARCTAS-CARB period - a multi-scale modeling study SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID NORTH-AMERICA; UNITED-STATES; WEST-COAST; VARIABILITY; TROPOSPHERE; AEROSOL; MISSION; SYSTEM; MODIS AB Multi-scale tracer and full-chemistry simulations with the STEM atmospheric chemistry model are used to analyze the effects of transported background ozone (O-3) from the eastern Pacific on California air quality during the ARCTAS-CARB experiment conducted in June, 2008. Previous work has focused on the importance of long-range transport of O-3 to North America air quality in springtime. However during this summer experiment the long-range transport of O-3 is also shown to be important. Simulated and observed O-3 transport patterns from the coast to inland northern California are shown to vary based on meteorological conditions and the O-3 profiles over the oceans, which are strongly episodically affected by Asian inflows. Analysis of the correlations of O-3 at various altitudes above the coastal site at Trinidad Head and at a downwind surface site in northern California, show that under long-range transport events, high O-3 air-masses (O-3>60 ppb) at altitudes between about 2 and 4 km can be transported inland and can significantly influence surface O-3 20-30 h later. These results show the importance of characterizing the vertical structure of the lateral boundary conditions (LBC) needed in air quality simulations. The importance of the LBC on O-3 prediction during this period is further studied through a series of sensitivity studies using different forms of LBC. It is shown that the use of the LBC downscaled from RAQMS global model that assimilated MLS and OMI data improves the model performance. We also show that the predictions can be further improved through the use of LBC based on NASA DC-8 airborne observations during the ARCTAS-CARB experiment. These results indicate the need to develop observational strategies to provide information on the three-dimensional nature of pollutant distributions, in order to improve our capability to predict pollution levels and to better quantify the influence of these Asian inflows on the US west coast air quality.

TI Historical (1850-2000) gridded anthropogenic and biomass burning emissions of reactive gases and aerosols: methodology and application SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID CARBONACEOUS PARTICLES; DIOXIDE EMISSIONS; ATLANTIC-OCEAN; GLOBAL-MODEL; TRACE GASES; FOSSIL-FUEL; OZONE; CLIMATE; INVENTORY; SCENARIOS AB We present and discuss a new dataset of gridded emissions covering the historical period (1850-2000) in decadal increments at a horizontal resolution of 0.5 degrees in latitude and longitude. The primary purpose of this inventory is to provide consistent gridded emissions of reactive gases and aerosols for use in chemistry model simulations needed by climate models for the Climate Model Intercomparison Program #5 (CMIP5) in support of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Fifth Assessment report (AR5). Our best estimate for the year 2000 inventory represents a combination of existing regional and global inventories to capture the best information available at this point; 40 regions and 12 sectors are used to combine the various sources. The historical reconstruction of each emitted compound, for each region and sector, is then forced to agree with our 2000 estimate, ensuring continuity between past and 2000 emissions. Simulations from two chemistry-climate models are used to test the ability of the emission dataset described here to capture long-term changes in atmospheric ozone, carbon monoxide and aerosol distributions. The simulated long-term change in the Northern mid-latitudes surface and mid-troposphere ozone is not quite as rapid as observed. However, stations outside this latitude band show much better agreement in both present-day and long-term trend. The model simulations indicate that the concentration of carbon monoxide is underestimated at the Mace Head station; however, the long-term trend over the limited observational period seems to be reasonably well captured. The simulated sulfate and black carbon deposition over Greenland is in very good agreement with the ice-core observations spanning the simulation period. Finally, aerosol optical depth and additional aerosol diagnostics are shown to be in good agreement with previously published estimates and observations.

TI Long-range pollution transport during the MILAGRO-2006 campaign: a case study of a major Mexico City outflow event using free-floating altitude-controlled balloons SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID AIR-MASS TRACKING; FIELD CAMPAIGN; UNITED-STATES; BASIN; CARBON; EVOLUTION; CLIMATE; OZONE; TRAJECTORIES; ABSORPTION AB One of the major objectives of the Megacities Initiative: Local And Global Research Observations (MILAGRO-2006) campaign was to investigate the long-range transport of polluted Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA) outflow and determine its downwind impacts on air quality and climate. Six research aircraft, including the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR) C-130, made extensive chemical, aerosol, and radiation measurements above MCMA and more than 1000 km downwind in order to characterize the evolution of the outflow as it aged and dispersed over the Mesa Alta, Sierra Madre Oriental, Coastal Plain, and Gulf of Mexico. As part of this effort, free-floating Controlled-Meteorological (CMET) balloons, commanded to change altitude via satellite, made repeated profile measurements of winds and state variables within the advecting outflow. In this paper, we present an analysis of the data from two CMET balloons that were launched near Mexico City on the afternoon of 18 March 2006 and floated downwind with the MCMA pollution for nearly 30 h. The repeating profile measurements show the evolving structure of the outflow in considerable detail: its stability and stratification, interaction with other air masses, mixing episodes, and dispersion into the regional background. Air parcel trajectories, computed directly from the balloon wind profiles, show three transport pathways on 18-19 March: (a) high-altitude advection of the top of the MCMA mixed layer, (b) mid-level outflow over the Sierra Madre Oriental followed by decoupling and isolated transport over the Gulf of Mexico, and (c) low-level outflow with entrainment into a cleaner northwesterly jet above the Coastal Plain. The C-130 aircraft intercepted the balloon-based trajectories three times on 19 March, once along each of these pathways; in all three cases, peaks in urban tracer concentrations and LI-DAR backscatter are consistent with MCMA pollution. In comparison with the transport models used in the campaign, the balloon-based trajectories appear to shear the outflow far more uniformly and decouple it from the surface, thus forming a thin but expansive polluted layer over the Gulf of Mexico that is well aligned with the aircraft observations. These results provide critical context for the extensive aircraft measurements made during the 18-19 March MCMA outflow event and may have broader implications for modelling and understanding long-range transport.

TI The importance of aerosol mixing state and size-resolved composition on CCN concentration and the variation of the importance with atmospheric aging of aerosols SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID CLOUD CONDENSATION NUCLEI; SECONDARY ORGANIC AEROSOL; CITY METROPOLITAN-AREA; MEXICO-CITY; MASS-SPECTROMETRY; HYGROSCOPIC GROWTH; LIGHT-SCATTERING; HIGH-RESOLUTION; PART 1; PHYSICAL-PROPERTIES AB Aerosol microphysics, chemical composition, and CCN concentrations were measured at the T0 urban super-site in Mexico City during Megacity Initiative: Local and Global Research Observations (MILAGRO) in March 2006. The aerosol size distribution and composition often showed strong diurnal variation associated with traffic emissions and aging of aerosols through coagulation and local photochemical production of secondary aerosol species. CCN concentrations (N-CCN) are derived using Kohler theory from the measured aerosol size distribution and various simplified aerosol mixing state and chemical composition, and are compared to concurrent measurements at five supersaturations ranging from 0.11% to 0.35%. The influence of assumed mixing state on calculated N-CCN is examined using both aerosols observed during MILAGRO and representative aerosol types. The results indicate that while ambient aerosols often consist of particles with a wide range of compositions at a given size, N-CCN may be derived within similar to 20% assuming an internal mixture (i.e., particles at a given size are mixtures of all participating species, and have the identical composition) if great majority of particles has an overall kappa (hygroscopicity parameter) value greater than 0.1. For a non-hygroscopic particle with a diameter of 100 nm, a 3 nm coating of sulfate or nitrate is sufficient to increase its kappa from 0 to 0.1. The measurements during MILAGRO suggest that the mixing of non-hygroscopic primary organic aerosol (POA) and black carbon (BC) particles with photochemically produced hygroscopic species and thereby the increase of their kappa to 0.1 take place in a few hours during daytime. This rapid process suggests that during daytime, a few tens of kilometers away for POA and BC sources, N-CCN may be derived with sufficient accuracy by assuming an internal mixture, and using bulk chemical composition. The rapid mixing also indicates that, at least for very active photochemical environments such as Mexico City, the timescale during daytime for the conversion of hydrophobic POA and BC to hydrophilic particles is substantially shorter than the 1-2 days used in some global models. The conversion time scale is substantially longer during night. Most POA and BC particles emitted during evening hours likely remain non-hygroscopic until efficiently internally mixed with secondary species in the next morning. The results also suggest that the assumed mixing state strongly impacts calculated N-CCN only when POA and BC represent a large fraction of the total aerosol volume. One of the implications is that while physically unrealistic, external mixtures, which are used in many global models, may also sufficiently predict N-CCN for aged aerosol, as the contribution of non-hygroscopic POA and BC to overall aerosol volume is often substantially reduced due to the condensation of secondary species.

To help identify the source of the discrepancies, data from the MILAGRO campaign are used to evaluate the "aerosol chemical to aerosol optical properties" module implemented in the full chemistry version of the WRF-Chem model. The evaluation uses measurements of aerosol size distributions and chemical properties obtained at the MILAGRO T1 site. These observations are fed to the module, which makes predictions of various aerosol optical properties, including the scattering coefficient, B-scat; the absorption coefficient, B-abs; and the single-scattering albedo, omega(0); all as a function of time. Values simulated by the module are compared with independent measurements obtained from a photoacoustic spectrometer (PAS) at a wavelength of 870 nm. Because of line losses and other factors, only "fine mode" aerosols with aerodynamic diameters less than 2.5 mu m are considered here. Over a 10-day period, the simulations of hour-by-hour variations of Bscat are not satisfactory, but simulations of B-abs and omega(0) are considerably better. When averaged over the 10-day period, the computed and observed optical properties agree within the uncertainty limits of the measurements and simulations. Specifically, the observed and calculated values are, respectively: (1) Bscat, 34.1+/-5.1Mm(-1) versus 30.4+/-3.4 Mm(-1); (2) Babs, 9.7+/-1.0 Mm(-1) versus 11.7+/-1.2 Mm(-1); and (3) omega(0), 0.78+/-0.05 and 0.74+/-0.03. The discrepancies in values of omega(0) simulated by the full WRF-Chem model thus cannot be attributed to the "aerosol chemistry to optics" module. The discrepancy is more likely due, in part, to poor characterization of emissions near the T1 site, particularly black carbon emissions. C1 [Barnard, J. C.; Fast, J.

TI A global modeling study on carbonaceous aerosol microphysical characteristics and radiative effects SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID BLACK CARBON; MASS-SPECTROMETRY; EMISSIONS; ABSORPTION; SCATTERING; PARTICLES; SATELLITE; CLIMATE; AEROCOM; SOOT AB Recently, attention has been drawn towards black carbon aerosols as a short-term climate warming mitigation candidate. However the global and regional impacts of the direct, indirect and semi-direct aerosol effects are highly uncertain, due to the complex nature of aerosol evolution and the way that mixed, aged aerosols interact with clouds and radiation. A detailed aerosol microphysical scheme, MATRIX, embedded within the GISS climate model is used in this study to present a quantitative assessment of the impact of microphysical processes involving black carbon, such as emission size distributions and optical properties on aerosol cloud activation and radiative effects. Our best estimate for net direct and indirect aerosol radiative flux change between 1750 and 2000 is -0.56 W/m(2). However, the direct and indirect aerosol effects are quite sensitive to the black and organic carbon size distribution and consequential mixing state. The net radiative flux change can vary between -0.32 to -0.75 W/m(2) depending on these carbonaceous particle properties at emission. Taking into account internally mixed black carbon particles let us simulate correct aerosol absorption. Absorption of black carbon aerosols is amplified by sulfate and nitrate coatings and, even more strongly, by organic coatings. Black carbon mitigation scenarios generally showed reduced radiative fluxeswhen sources with a large proportion of black carbon, such as diesel, are reduced; however reducing sources with a larger organic carbon component as well, such as bio-fuels, does not necessarily lead to a reduction in positive radiative flux.

This study provides one of the first direct measurements for the efficient removal of black carbon from the atmosphere by snow and its subsequent deposition to the snow packs of California. The early melting of the snow packs in the Sierras is one of the contributing factors to the severe water problems in California. BC concentrations in falling snow were measured at two mountain locations and in rain at a coastal site. All three stations reveal large BC concentrations in precipitation, ranging from 1.7 ng/g to 12.9 ng/g. The BC concentrations in the air after the snow fall were negligible suggesting an extremely efficient removal of BC by snow. The data suggest that below cloud scavenging, rather than ice nuclei, was the dominant source of BC in the snow. A five-year comparison of BC, dust, and total fine aerosol mass concentrations at multiple sites reveals that the measurements made at the sampling sites were representative of large scale deposition in the Sierra Nevada. The relative concentration of iron and calcium in the mountain aerosol indicates that one-quarter to one-third of the BC may have been transported from Asia. C1 [Hadley, O. L.; Kirchstetter, T.

The new method complements the traditional, direct measurement of aerosol radiative forcing efficiency from horizontal flight legs below gradients of aerosol optical thickness, and is particularly useful over heterogeneous land surfaces and for homogeneous aerosol layers where the horizontal gradient method is impractical. Using data collected by the Solar Spectral Flux Radiometer (SSFR) and the Ames Airborne Tracking Sunphotometer (AATS-14) during the MILAGRO (Megacity Initiative: Local and Global Research Observations) experiment, we validate an over-ocean spectral aerosol forcing efficiency from the new method by comparing with the traditional method. Retrieved over-land aerosol optical properties are compared with in-situ measurements and AERONET retrievals. The spectral forcing efficiencies over ocean and land are remarkably similar and agree with results from other field experiments. C1 [Schmidt, K.

TI Particle size distributions from laboratory-scale biomass fires using fast response instruments SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID TRANSFORM INFRARED-SPECTROSCOPY; EMISSION FACTORS; COMBUSTION; AEROSOL; FUELS; PHASE AB Particle size distribution from biomass combustion is an important parameter as it affects air quality, climate modelling and health effects. To date, particle size distributions reported from prior studies vary not only due to difference in fuels but also difference in experimental conditions. This study aims to report characteristics of particle size distributions in well controlled repeatable lab scale biomass fires for southwestern United States fuels with focus on chaparral. The combustion laboratory at the United States Department of Agriculture-Forest Service's Fire Science Laboratory (USDA-FSL), Missoula, MT provided a repeatable combustion and dilution environment ideal for measurements. For a variety of fuels tested the major mode of particle size distribution was in the range of 29 to 52 nm, which is attributable to dilution of the fresh smoke. Comparing mass size distribution from FMPS and APS measurement 51-68% of particle mass was attributable to the particles ranging from 0.5 to 10 mu m for PM10. Geometric mean diameter rapidly increased during flaming and gradually decreased during mixed and smoldering phase combustion. Most fuels produced a unimodal distribution during flaming phase and strong biomodal distribution during smoldering phase. The mode of combustion (flaming, mixed and smoldering) could be better distinguished using the slopes in MCE (Modified Combustion Efficiency) vs. geometric mean diameter than only using MCE values.

TI Trans-Pacific transport of reactive nitrogen and ozone to Canada during spring SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID LONG-RANGE TRANSPORT; TRANSBOUNDARY POLLUTION INFLUENCES; EXPERIMENT INTEX-B; UNITED-STATES; TRANSPACIFIC TRANSPORT; TROPOSPHERIC OZONE; ASIAN EMISSIONS; NORTH-AMERICA; NOX EMISSIONS; MONITORING INSTRUMENT AB We interpret observations from the Intercontinental Chemical Transport Experiment, Phase B (INTEX-B) in spring 2006 using a global chemical transport model (GEOS-Chem) to evaluate sensitivities of the free troposphere above the North Pacific Ocean and North America to Asian anthropogenic emissions. We develop a method to use satellite observations of tropospheric NO2 columns to provide timely estimates of trends in NOx emissions. NOx emissions increased by 33% for China and 29% for East Asia from 2003 to 2006. We examine measurements from three aircraft platforms from the INTEX-B campaign, including a Canadian Cessna taking vertical profiles of ozone near Whistler Peak. The contribution to the mean simulated ozone profiles over Whistler below 5.5 km is at least 7.2 ppbv for Asian anthropogenic emissions and at least 3.5 ppbv for global lightning NOx emissions. Tropospheric ozone columns from OMI exhibit a broad Asian outflow plume across the Pacific, which is reproduced by simulation. Mean modelled sensitivities of Pacific (30 degrees N-60 degrees N) tropospheric ozone columns are at least 4.6 DU for Asian anthropogenic emissions and at least 3.3 DU for lightning, as determined by simulations excluding either source. Enhancements of ozone over Canada from Asian anthropogenic emissions reflect a combination of trans-Pacific transport of ozone produced over Asia, and ozone produced in the eastern Pacific through decomposition of peroxyacetyl nitrates (PANs). A sensitivity study decoupling PANs globally from the model's chemical mechanism establishes that PANs increase ozone production by removing NOx from regions of low ozone production efficiency (OPE) and injecting it into regions with higher OPE, resulting in a global increase in ozone production by 2% in spring 2006. PANs contribute up to 4 ppbv to surface springtime ozone concentrations in western Canada. Ozone production due to PAN transport is greatest in the eastern Pacific; commonly occurring transport patterns advect this ozone northeastward into Canada. Transport events observed by the aircraft confirm that polluted airmasses were advected in this way. C1 [Walker, T. W.; Martin, R.

TI An overview of the MILAGRO 2006 Campaign: Mexico City emissions and their transport and transformation SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID AEROSOL MASS-SPECTROMETRY; VOLATILE ORGANIC-COMPOUNDS; POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC-HYDROCARBONS; PARTICULATE AIR-POLLUTION; CHARACTERIZING OZONE PRODUCTION; POSITIVE MATRIX FACTORIZATION; SPECTRAL-RESOLUTION LIDAR; MCMA-2003 FIELD CAMPAIGN; ABSORPTION CROSS-SECTION; IN-SITU MEASUREMENTS AB MILAGRO (Megacity Initiative: Local And Global Research Observations) is an international collaborative project to examine the behavior and the export of atmospheric emissions from a megacity. The Mexico City Metropolitan Area (MCMA) - one of the world's largest megacities and North America's most populous city - was selected as the case study to characterize the sources, concentrations, transport, and transformation processes of the gases and fine particles emitted to the MCMA atmosphere and to evaluate the regional and global impacts of these emissions. The findings of this study are relevant to the evolution and impacts of pollution from many other megacities. The measurement phase consisted of a month-long series of carefully coordinated observations of the chemistry and physics of the atmosphere in and near Mexico City during March 2006, using a wide range of instruments at ground sites, on aircraft and satellites, and enlisting over 450 scientists from 150 institutions in 30 countries. Three ground supersites were set up to examine the evolution of the primary emitted gases and fine particles. Additional platforms in or near Mexico City included mobile vans containing scientific laboratories and mobile and stationary upward-looking lidars. Seven instrumented research aircraft provided information about the atmosphere over a large region and at various altitudes. Satellite-based instruments peered down into the atmosphere, providing even larger geographical coverage. The overall campaign was complemented by meteorological forecasting and numerical simulations, satellite observations and surface networks. Together, these research observations have provided the most comprehensive characterization of the MCMA's urban and regional atmospheric composition and chemistry that will take years to analyze and evaluate fully. In this paper we review over 120 papers resulting from the MILAGRO/INTEX-B Campaign that have been published or submitted, as well as relevant papers from the earlier MCMA-2003 Campaign, with the aim of providing a road map for the scientific community interested in understanding the emissions from a megacity such as the MCMA and their impacts on air quality and climate. This paper describes the measurements performed during MILAGRO and the results obtained on MCMA's atmospheric meteorology and dynamics, emissions of gases and fine particles, sources and concentrations of volatile organic compounds, urban and regional photochemistry, ambient particulate matter, aerosol radiative properties, urban plume characterization, and health studies. A summary of key findings from the field study is presented. C1 [Molina, L. T.; Zavala, M.] MIT, Cambridge, MA 02139 USA. [Madronich, S.; Apel, E.] Natl Ctr Atmospher Res, Boulder, CO 80307 USA.

TI The spatial distribution of mineral dust and its shortwave radiative forcing over North Africa: modeling sensitivities to dust emissions and aerosol size treatments SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID REGIONAL AIR-QUALITY; SAHARAN DUST; OPTICAL-PROPERTIES; REFRACTIVE-INDEX; IMAGING SPECTRORADIOMETER; WEST-AFRICA; CLIMATE; WRF; ATMOSPHERE; TRANSPORT AB A fully coupled meteorology-chemistry-aerosol model (WRF-Chem) is applied to simulate mineral dust and its shortwave (SW) radiative forcing over North Africa. Two dust emission schemes (GOCART and DUSTRAN) and two aerosol models (MADE/SORGAM and MOSAIC) are adopted in simulations to investigate the modeling sensitivities to dust emissions and aerosol size treatments. The modeled size distribution and spatial variability of mineral dust and its radiative properties are evaluated using measurements (ground-based, aircraft, and satellites) during the AMMA SOP0 campaign from 6 January to 3 February of 2006 (the SOP0 period) over North Africa. Two dust emission schemes generally simulate similar spatial distributions and temporal evolutions of dust emissions. Simulations using the GOCART scheme with different initial (emitted) dust size distributions require similar to 40% difference in total emitted dust mass to produce similar SW radiative forcing of dust over the Sahel region. The modal approach of MADE/SORGAM retains 25% more fine dust particles (radius<1.25 mu m) but 8% less coarse dust particles (radius>1.25 mu m) than the sectional approach of MOSAIC in simulations using the same size-resolved dust emissions. Consequently, MADE/SORGAM simulates 11% higher AOD, up to 13% lower SW dust heating rate, and 15% larger (more negative) SW dust radiative forcing at the surface than MOSAIC over the Sahel region. In the daytime of the SOP0 period, the model simulations show that the mineral dust heats the lower atmosphere with an average rate of 0.8 +/- 0.5 K day(-1) over the Niamey vicinity and 0.5 +/- 0.2 K day(-1) over North Africa and reduces the downwelling SW radiation at the surface by up to 58 W m(-2) with an average of 22 W m(-2) over North Africa. This highlights the importance of including dust radiative impact in understanding the regional climate of North Africa. When compared to the available measurements, the WRF-Chem simulations can generally capture the measured features of mineral dust and its radiative properties over North Africa, suggesting that the model is suitable for more extensive simulations of dust impact on regional climate over North Africa.

TI Optical-chemical-microphysical relationships and closure studies for mixed carbonaceous aerosols observed at Jeju Island; 3-laser photoacoustic spectrometer, particle sizing, and filter analysis SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID LIGHT-ABSORPTION; BLACK-CARBON; ORGANIC AEROSOL; ELEMENTAL CARBON; REFRACTIVE-INDEX; BROWN CARBON; MEXICO-CITY; ACE-ASIA; SOOT; CALIFORNIA AB Transport of aerosols in pollution plumes from the mainland Asian continent was observed in situ at Jeju, South Korea during the Cheju Asian Brown Cloud Plume-Asian Monsoon Experiment (CAPMEX) field campaign throughout August and September 2008 using a 3-laser photoacoustic spectrometer (PASS-3), chemical filter analysis, and size distributions. The PASS-3 directly measures the effects of morphology (e. g. coatings) on light absorption that traditional filter-based instruments are unable to address. Transport of mixed sulfate, carbonaceous, and nitrate aerosols from various Asian pollution plumes to Jeju accounted for 74% of the deployment days, showing large variations in their measured chemical and optical properties. Analysis of eight distinct episodes, spanning wide ranges of chemical composition, optical properties, and source regions, reveals that episodes with higher organic carbon (OC)/sulfate (SO42-) and nitrate (NO3-)/SO42- composition ratios exhibit lower single scatter albedo at shorter wavelengths (omega 405). We infer complex refractive indices (n - ik) as a function of wavelength for the high, intermediate, and low OC/SO42- pollution episodes by using the observed particle size distributions and the measured optical properties. The smallest mean particle diameter corresponds to the high OC/SO42- aerosol episode. The imaginary part of the refractive index (k) is greater for the high OC/SO42- episode at all wavelengths. A distinct, sharp increase in k at short wavelength implies enhanced light absorption by OC, which accounts for 50% of the light absorption at 405 nm, in the high OC/SO42- episode. Idealized analysis indicates increased absorption at 781 nm by factors greater than 3 relative to denuded black carbon in the laboratory. We hypothesize that coatings of black carbon cores are the mechanism of this enhancement. This implies that climate warming and atmospheric heating rates from black carbon particles can be significantly larger than have been estimated previously. The results of this study demonstrate ways in which atmospheric processing and mixing can amplify particle light absorption for carbonaceous aerosol, significantly at short wavelength, underscoring the need to understand and predict chemical composition effects on optical properties to accurately estimate the climate radiative forcing by mixed carbonaceous aerosols.

The aim of the workshop was to hold "Gordon Conference" type discussion covering accommodation and reactive uptake of water vapour and trace pollutant gases on condensed phase atmospheric materials. The scope was to review and define the current state of knowledge of accommodation coefficients for water vapour on water droplet and ice surfaces, and uptake of trace gas species on a variety of different surfaces characteristic of the atmospheric condensed phase particulate matter and cloud droplets. Twenty-six scientists participated in this meeting through presentations, discussions and the development of a consensus review. In this review we present an analysis of the state of knowledge on the thermal and mass accommodation coefficient for water vapour on aqueous droplets and ice and a survey of current state-of the-art of reactive uptake of trace gases on a range of liquid and solid atmospheric droplets and particles. The review recommends consistent definitions of the various parameters that are needed for quantitative representation of the range of gas/condensed surface kinetic processes important for the atmosphere and identifies topics that require additional research.

TI Observed 20th century desert dust variability: impact on climate and biogeochemistry SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID ATMOSPHERIC MINERAL AEROSOLS; GENERAL-CIRCULATION MODEL; ICE CORE RECORDS; INTERANNUAL VARIABILITY; RELATIVE IMPORTANCE; CARBON-DIOXIDE; NORTH-ATLANTIC; AFRICAN DUST; UPPER OCEAN; LAND-USE AB Desert dust perturbs climate by directly and indirectly interacting with incoming solar and outgoing long wave radiation, thereby changing precipitation and temperature, in addition to modifying ocean and land biogeochemistry. While we know that desert dust is sensitive to perturbations in climate and human land use, previous studies have been unable to determine whether humans were increasing or decreasing desert dust in the global average. Here we present observational estimates of desert dust based on paleodata proxies showing a doubling of desert dust during the 20th century over much, but not all the globe. Large uncertainties remain in estimates of desert dust variability over 20th century due to limited data. Using these observational estimates of desert dust change in combination with ocean, atmosphere and land models, we calculate the net radiative effect of these observed changes (top of atmosphere) over the 20th century to be -0.14 +/- 0.11 W/m(2) (1990-1999 vs. 1905-1914). The estimated radiative change due to dust is especially strong between the heavily loaded 1980-1989 and the less heavily loaded 1955-1964 time periods (-0.57 +/- 0.46 W/m(2)), which model simulations suggest may have reduced the rate of temperature increase between these time periods by 0.11 degrees C. Model simulations also indicate strong regional shifts in precipitation and temperature from desert dust changes, causing 6 ppm (12 PgC) reduction in model carbon uptake by the terrestrial biosphere over the 20th century. Desert dust carries iron, an important micronutrient for ocean biogeochemistry that can modulate ocean carbon storage; here we show that dust deposition trends increase ocean productivity by an estimated 6% over the 20th century, drawing down an additional 4 ppm (8 PgC) of carbon dioxide into the oceans. Thus, perturbations to desert dust over the 20th century inferred from observations are potentially important for climate and biogeochemistry, and our understanding of these changes and their impacts should continue to be refined.

SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID AEROSOL MASS-SPECTROMETRY; SECONDARY ORGANIC AEROSOLS; MILAGRO 2006 CAMPAIGN; URBAN SUPERSITE T0; SOURCE APPORTIONMENT; AMBIENT AEROSOL; ATMOSPHERIC AEROSOLS; RADIOCARBON CONTENT; SOURCE ATTRIBUTION; C-14 MEASUREMENTS AB A 3-D chemistry-transport model has been applied to the Mexico City metropolitan area to investigate the origin of elevated levels of non-fossil (NF) carbonaceous aerosols observed in this highly urbanized region. High time resolution measurements of the fine aerosol concentration and composition, and 12 or 24 h integrated C-14 measurements of aerosol modern carbon have been performed in and near Mexico City during the March 2006 MILAGRO field experiment. The non-fossil carbon fraction (f(NF)), which is lower than the measured modern fraction (f(M)) due to the elevated C-14 in the atmosphere caused by nuclear bomb testing, is estimated from the measured f(M) and the source-dependent information on modern carbon enrichment. The f(NF) contained in PM1 total carbon analyzed by a US team (f(NF)(TC)) ranged from 0.37 to 0.67 at the downtown location, and from 0.50 to 0.86 at the suburban site. Substantially lower values (i.e. 0.24-0.49) were found for PM10 filters downtown by an independent set of measurements (Swiss team), which are inconsistent with the modeled and known differences between the size ranges, suggesting higher than expected uncertainties in the measurement techniques of C-14. An increase in the non-fossil organic carbon (OC) fraction (f(NF)(OC)) by 0.10-0.15 was observed for both sets of filters during periods with enhanced wildfire activity in comparison to periods when fires were suppressed by rain, which is consistent with the wildfire impacts estimated with other methods. Model results show that the relatively high fraction of non-fossil carbon found in Mexico City seems to arise from the combination in about equal proportions of regional biogenic SOA, biomass burning POA and SOA, as well as non-fossil urban POA and SOA. Predicted spatial and temporal variations for f(NF)(OC) are similar to those in the measurements between the urban vs. suburban sites, and high-fire vs. low-fire periods. The absolute modeled values of f(NF)(OC) are consistent with the Swiss dataset but lower than the US dataset. Resolving the C-14 measurement discrepancies is necessary for further progress in model evaluation. The model simulations that included secondary organic aerosol (SOA) formation from semi-volatile and intermediate volatility (S/IVOC) vapors showed improved closure for the total OA mass compared to simulations which only included SOA from VOCs, providing a more realistic basis to evaluate the f(NF) predictions. f(NF)(OC) urban sources of modern carbon are important in reducing or removing the difference in f(NF) between model and measurements, even though they are often neglected on the interpretation of C-14 datasets. An underprediction of biomass burning POA by the model during some mornings also explains a part of the model-measurement differences. The f(NF) of urban POA and SOA precursors is an important parameter that needs to be better constrained by measurements. Performing faster (<= 3 h) C-14 measurements in future campaigns is critical to further progress in this area. To our knowledge this is the first time that radiocarbon measurements are used together with aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) organic components to assess the performance of a regional model for organic aerosols.

TI Laboratory measurements of trace gas emissions from biomass burning of fuel types from the southeastern and southwestern United States SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID TRANSFORM INFRARED-SPECTROSCOPY; NITROUS-ACID HONO; ENGLAND AIR-QUALITY; NI-PT-CIMS; FIRE EMISSIONS; SAVANNA FIRES; HETEROGENEOUS CONVERSION; SOUTHERN-CALIFORNIA; TROPICAL FOREST; AFRICAN AB Vegetation commonly managed by prescribed burning was collected from five southeastern and southwestern US military bases and burned under controlled conditions at the US Forest Service Fire Sciences Laboratory in Missoula, Montana. The smoke emissions were measured with a large suite of state-of-the-art instrumentation including an open-path Fourier transform infrared (OP-FTIR) spectrometer for measurement of gas-phase species. The OP-FTIR detected and quantified 19 gas-phase species in these fires: CO2, CO, CH4, C2H2, C2H4, C3H6, HCHO, HCOOH, CH3OH, CH3COOH, furan, H2O, NO, NO2, HONO, NH3, HCN, HCl, and SO2. Emission factors for these species are presented for each vegetation type burned. Gas-phase nitrous acid (HONO), an important OH precursor, was detected in the smoke from all fires. The HONO emission factors ranged from 0.15 to 0.60 g kg(-1) and were higher for the southeastern fuels. The fire-integrated molar emission ratios of HONO (relative to NOx) ranged from approximately 0.03 to 0.20, with higher values also observed for the southeastern fuels. The majority of non-methane organic compound (NMOC) emissions detected by OP-FTIR were oxygenated volatile organic compounds (OVOCs) with the total identified OVOC emissions constituting 61 +/- 12% of the total measured NMOC on a molar basis. These OVOC may undergo photolysis or further oxidation contributing to ozone formation. Elevated amounts of gas-phase HCl and SO2 were also detected during flaming combustion, with the amounts varying greatly depending on location and vegetation type. The fuels with the highest HCl emission factors were all located in the coastal regions, although HCl was also observed from fuels farther inland. Emission factors for HCl were generally higher for the southwestern fuels, particularly those found in the chaparral biome in the coastal regions of California. C1 [Burling, I. R.; Yokelson, R.

TI Spectrally-invariant behavior of zenith radiance around cloud edges simulated by radiative transfer SO ATMOSPHERIC CHEMISTRY AND PHYSICS LA English DT Article ID SMALL CUMULUS CLOUDS; DROPLET SPECTRA; EVOLUTION; HUMIDITY AB In a previous paper, we discovered a surprising spectrally-invariant relationship in shortwave spectrometer observations taken by the Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) program. The relationship suggests that the shortwave spectrum near cloud edges can be determined by a linear combination of zenith radiance spectra of the cloudy and clear regions. Here, using radiative transfer simulations, we study the sensitivity of this relationship to the properties of aerosols and clouds, to the underlying surface type, and to the finite field-of-view (FOV) of the spectrometer. Overall, the relationship is mostly sensitive to cloud properties and has little sensitivity to other factors. At visible wavelengths, the relationship primarily depends on cloud optical depth regardless of cloud phase function, thermodynamic phase and drop size. At water-absorbing wavelengths, the slope of the relationship depends primarily on cloud optical depth; the intercept, by contrast, depends primarily on cloud absorbing and scattering properties, suggesting a new retrieval method for cloud drop effective radius. These results suggest that the spectrally-invariant relationship can be used to infer cloud properties near cloud edges even with insufficient or no knowledge about spectral surface albedo and aerosol properties.

TI Measurement of HONO, HNCO, and other inorganic acids by negative-ion proton-transfer chemical-ionization mass spectrometry (NI-PT-CIMS): application to biomass burning emissions SO ATMOSPHERIC MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES LA English DT Article ID ISOCYANIC ACID; NITROUS-ACID; ABSORPTION-SPECTROSCOPY; REACTIVE NITROGEN; AIR-QUALITY; NITRIC-ACID; CALIBRATION; GENERATION; ATMOSPHERE; PYROLYSIS AB A negative-ion proton-transfer chemical ionization mass spectrometric technique (NI-PT-CIMS), using acetate as the reagent ion, was applied to the measurement of volatile inorganic acids of atmospheric interest: hydrochloric (HCl), nitrous (HONO), nitric (HNO(3)), and isocyanic (HNCO) acids. Gas phase calibrations through the sampling inlet showed the method to be intrinsically sensitive (6-16 cts/pptv), but prone to inlet effects for HNO(3) and HCl. The ion chemistry was found to be insensitive to water vapor concentrations, in agreement with previous studies of carboxylic acids. The inlet equilibration times for HNCO and HONO were 2 to 4s, allowing for measurement in biomass burning studies. Several potential interferences in HONO measurements were examined: decomposition of HNO(3)center dot NO(3)(-) clusters within the CIMS, and NO(2)-water production on inlet surfaces, and were quite minor (<= 1%, 3.3%, respectively). The detection limits of the method were limited by the instrument backgrounds in the ion source and flow tube, and were estimated to range between 16 and 50 pptv (parts per trillion by volume) for a 1 min average. The comparison of HONO measured by CIMS and by in situ FTIR showed good correlation and agreement to within 17%. The method provided rapid and accurate measurements of HNCO and HONO in controlled biomass burning studies, in which both acids were seen to be important products. C1 [Roberts, J.

TI Carbon monoxide mixing ratios over Oklahoma between 2002 and 2009 retrieved from Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer spectra SO ATMOSPHERIC MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES LA English DT Article ID FIRE SMOKE PLUME; HIGH-RESOLUTION; CO; TEMPERATURE; INVERSION; POLLUTION; SATELLITE; AIRCRAFT; COLUMN; SPACE AB CO mixing ratios for the lowermost 2-km atmospheric layer were retrieved from downwelling infrared (IR) radiance spectra of the clear sky measured between 2002 and 2009 by a zenith-viewing Atmospheric Emitted Radiance Interferometer (AERI) deployed at the Southern Great Plains (SGP) observatory of the Atmospheric Radiation Measurements (ARM) Program near Lamont, Oklahoma. A version of a published earlier retrieval algorithm was improved and validated. Archived temperature and water vapor profiles retrieved from the same AERI spectra through automated ARM processing were used as input data for the CO retrievals. We found the archived water vapor profiles required additional constraint using SGP Microwave Radiometer retrievals of total precipitable water vapor. A correction for scattered solar light was developed as well. The retrieved CO was validated using simultaneous independently measured CO profiles from an aircraft. These tropospheric CO profiles were measured from the surface to altitudes of 4572ma.s.l. once or twice a week between March 2006 and December 2008. The aircraft measurements were supplemented with ground-based CO measurements using a non-dispersive infrared gas correlation instrument at the SGP and retrievals from the Atmospheric IR Sounder (AIRS) above 5 km to create full tropospheric CO profiles. Comparison of the profiles convolved with averaging kernels to the AERI CO retrievals found a squared correlation coefficient of 0.57, a standard deviation of +/- 11.7 ppbv, a bias of -16 ppbv, and a slope of 0.92. Averaged seasonal and diurnal cycles measured by the AERI are compared with those measured continuously in situ at the SGP in the boundary layer. Monthly mean CO values measured by the AERI between 2002 and 2009 are compared with those measured by the AIRS over North America, the Northern Hemisphere mid-latitudes, and over the tropics.

TI Retrieval of aerosol optical depth in vicinity of broken clouds from reflectance ratios: case study SO ATMOSPHERIC MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES LA English DT Article ID UNIFIED SATELLITE CLIMATOLOGY; SPECTRAL-RESOLUTION LIDAR; GROUND-BASED MEASUREMENTS; CLEAR-SKY REFLECTANCE; MFRSR DATA; ALBEDO; MODIS; MODELS; PRECIPITATION; SIMULATIONS AB A recently developed reflectance ratio (RR) method for the retrieval of aerosol optical depth (AOD) is evaluated using extensive airborne and ground-based data sets collected during the Cloud and Land Surface Interaction Campaign (CLASIC) and the Cumulus Humilis Aerosol Processing Study (CHAPS), which took place in June 2007 over the US Department of Energy (DOE) Atmospheric Radiation Measurement (ARM) Southern Great Plains site. A detailed case study is performed for a field of single-layer shallow cumuli observed on 12 June 2007. The RR method is applied to retrieve the spectral values of AOD from the reflectance ratios measured by the MODIS Airborne Simulator (MAS) for two pairs of wavelengths (660 and 470 nm, 870 and 470 nm) collected at a spatial resolution of 0.05 km. The retrieval is compared with an independent AOD estimate from three ground-based Multi-filter Rotating Shadowband Radiometers (MFRSRs). The interpolation algorithm that is used to project MFRSR point measurements onto the aircraft flight tracks is tested using AOD derived from NASA Langley High Spectral Resolution Lidar (HSRL). The RR AOD estimates are in a good agreement (within 5%) with the MFRSR-derived AOD values for the 660-nm wavelength. The AODs obtained from MAS reflectance ratios overestimate those derived from MFRSR measurements by 15-30% for the 470-nm wavelength and underestimate the 870-nm AOD by the same amount.

TI Calibration of the Total Carbon Column Observing Network using aircraft profile data SO ATMOSPHERIC MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES LA English DT Article ID SOLAR ABSORPTION-SPECTRA; SPECTROSCOPIC DATABASE; LINE PARAMETERS; ATMOSPHERIC CO2; WATER-VAPOR; SCALE; O-2; AIR; CH4; REEVALUATION AB The Total Carbon Column Observing Network (TCCON) produces precise measurements of the column average dry-air mole fractions of CO2, CO, CH4, N2O and H2O at a variety of sites worldwide. These observations rely on spectroscopic parameters that are not known with sufficient accuracy to compute total columns that can be used in combination with in situ measurements. The TCCON must therefore be calibrated to World Meteorological Organization (WMO) in situ trace gas measurement scales. We present a calibration of TCCON data using WMO-scale instrumentation aboard aircraft that measured profiles over four TCCON stations during 2008 and 2009. These calibrations are compared with similar observations made in 2004 and 2006. The results indicate that a single, global calibration factor for each gas accurately captures the TCCON total column data within error. C1 [Toon, G. C.; Blavier, J. -F.

TI Fast time-resolved aerosol collector: proof of concept SO ATMOSPHERIC MEASUREMENT TECHNIQUES LA English DT Article ID PARTICLES; SPECTROMETER; INSTRUMENT; DEPOSITION; SURFACE; PLATE AB Atmospheric particles can be collected in the field on substrates for subsequent laboratory analysis via chemically sensitive single particle methods such as scanning electron microscopy with energy dispersive x-ray analysis. With moving substrates time resolution of seconds to minutes can be achieved. In this paper, we demonstrate how to increase the time resolution when collecting particles on a substrate to a few milliseconds to provide real-time information. Our fast time-resolved aerosol collector ("Fast-TRAC") microscopically observes the particle collection on a substrate and records an on-line video. Particle arrivals are resolved to within a single frame (4-17 ms in this setup), and the spatial locations are matched to the subsequent single particle analysis. This approach also provides in-situ information on particle size and number concentration. Applications are expected in airborne studies of cloud microstructure, pollution plumes, and surface long-term monitoring. C1 [Yu, X. -Y.; Cowin, J. P.; Iedema, M.

Our objective here is to realize a cost-effective fabrication technique coupled with suitable device architecture of nanostructured DSSCs to achieve high photoconversion efficiencies. Atomic layer deposition (ALD) offers an attractive synthetic route for fabricating conformal photoanode coating materials on a nanoporous scaffold. Here, we used silica aerogels processed by doctor blading as structural scaffolds on transparent conducting oxide substrates, to promote subsequent conformal growth of thin films of TiO2 and aluminum-doped zinc oxide (AZO) by ALD. The resulting interdigitated architecture of the photoanodes can facilitate fast electron transfer. Dye sensitization of the photoanodes was accomplished using ditetrabutylammonium cis-bis(isothiocyanato) bis(2,2'-bipyridyl-4,4'-dicarboxylate) ruthenium(II) ("N719", Dyesol, B2 dye) and assembled into photocells using liquid electrolytes. Co-sensitization with a second dye was found to increase the photon absorption and cell efficiency.

The traditional dosing sequence for metal oxide ALD is: M/O/M/O center dot center dot center dot where M is the metal precursor and O is the oxygen source. We find that by dosing organic molecules prior to dosing the metal precursor (e.g. ROH/M/O center dot center dot center dot) we can modify the surface chemistry and control the saturation growth rate. We present results describing the effect of alkyl alcohols (R=Me, Et, iPr) using H2O as the oxygen source and the metal precursors Ti(iPr)(4) and TiCl4 for TiO2 ALD, TMA for Al2O3 ALD, and DEZ for ZnO ALD. The ability to tune the saturation growth rate by modifying the surface chemistry can be of great utility for the ALD of doped materials where a homogenous distribution of dopants at a low concentration is desired. We show that this approach lowers the resistivity of Aldoped ZnO and allows the growth of low resistivity films at higher TMA/DEZ cycle ratios.

TI EFFECT OF AMBIENT TEMPERATURE AND DENSITY ON SHOCK WAVE GENERATION IN A DIESEL ENGINE SO ATOMIZATION AND SPRAYS LA English DT Article DE shock wave; diesel spray; speed of sound; ambient temperature; ambient density AB Shock-wave generation by high-pressure diesel sprays has been investigated over a range of ambient temperature and density in a high-temperature, high-pressure optical vessel. In the past, shock wave generation was considered unlikely for diesel sprays because of the high-temperature environment and low fuel injection pressure. However, recent trends toward very high injection pressures, and earlier (lower temperature) injection in modern diesel engines, can potentially produce shock waves. Through high-speed schlieren imaging, injection-resolved shock waves have been captured at injection pressures of 150 MPa. Marked changes in shock wave generation are shown to occur with variation in ambient conditions that are experienced in an engine, including the following: (1) Shock waves diminish in strength with increasing temperature and eventually disappear due to the increasing speed of sound. (2) At low ambient temperature, high-density ambient gas quickly decelerates the tip of the spray, causing shock waves to detach from the spray. (3) At high ambient temperature, the high density decelerates the spray tip during injection-rate ramp-up before the spray reaches the speed of sound, such that no shock waves are produced.

TI COMPUTED AND MEASURED FUEL VAPOR DISTRIBUTION IN A DIESEL SPRAY SO ATOMIZATION AND SPRAYS LA English DT Article; Proceedings Paper CT ICLASS Conference 2008 CY JUL, 2009 CL Vail, CO DE diesel spray; vaporizing sprays; spray models; multidimensional models; Rayleigh scattering ID TRANSIENT GAS JETS; MODEL; PENETRATION; ATOMIZATION; DISPERSION; ENGINE AB There is limited quantitative experimental data on fuel vapor concentrations in high-pressure vaporizing full-cone sprays injected into diesel engines. As a result, the accuracy of multidimensional models, which are routinely employed to compute such sprays, has not been quantitatively assessed. In this work, quantitative fuel vapor concentrations obtained from multidimensional computations of a diesel spray with three models are compared with measured concentrations in the vapor-phase portion downstream of liquid drop vaporization. The three models employed are a Lagrangian-drop Eulerian-fluid (LDEF) spray model, a gas jet model, and a virtual-liquid source (VLS) model. Comparison of the vapor fraction along the axial centerline during the transient development of the spray shows that the computed values are generally lower than the measured values, and the leading edge of the computed profiles shows shallower gradients of vapor fraction than in the measured spray. In the case of radial distribution, the peak values of measured and computed vapor fractions agree within 20% when the profiles are quasi-steady. The three models show similar agreement close to the orifice, but the LDEF model shows the better agreement farther downstream at quasi-steady state. During transient development, there is greater disagreement between the computed and measured profiles. The computed width of the vapor phase of the spray is generally larger than the measured one, although the half-widths show agreement within 10%. In general, the gas jet and VLS vapor fraction values are within 5% of each other at the centerline during transient development but differ more at the edge of the spray.

The threshold of splashing is known to be related to droplet size, impact velocity, and physical properties of the liquid, but the mechanisms that initiate splashing are not understood completely. In accordance with the Kelvin-Helmholtz (K-H) instability analysis, recent studies have shown that ambient gas density has a significant effect on the threshold and trajectory of splashing. In this study, the effects of droplet velocity, impact angle, and ambient gas pressure (or density) on the threshold of splashing and the motion of the ambient gas surrounding the droplet were examined. Experimental observations of splashing were carried out with a droplet of 1.7 mm in diameter, while varying droplet velocity, impact angle, and ambient pressure. An empirical correlation was derived using our and other published data to determine the threshold of splashing based on the aforementioned parameters. Also, a numerical simulation using the volume of fluid method was carried out to calculate the gas velocities surrounding the droplet during impact. The results of this model gave supportive evidence that K-H instability is a suitable instability theory that helps explain the splash phenomenon with consideration of the gas motion surrounding the droplet.

The extent, rates, and implications of these interactions, however, are far from understood. This review describes the properties of biochars and suggests possible reactions that may occur after the addition of biochars to soil. These include dissolution-precipitation, adsorption-desorption, acid-base, and redox reactions. Attention is given to reactions occurring within pores, and to interactions with roots, microorganisms, and soil fauna. Examination of biochars (from chicken litter, greenwaste, and paper mill sludges) weathered for 1 and 2 years in an Australian Ferrosol provides evidence for some of the mechanisms described in this review and offers an insight to reactions at a molecular scale. These interactions are biochar- and site-specific. Therefore, suitable experimental trials-combining biochar types and different pedoclimatic conditions-are needed to determine the extent to which these reactions influence the potential of biochar as a soil amendment and tool for carbon sequestration.

Despite successes, however, these economic models have substantive limitations. Many of these limitations are due to computational and methodological constraints that can be overcome by leveraging recent advances in computer architecture, numerical methods, and economics research. Motivated by these considerations, we are developing a new modeling framework: the Community Integrated Model of Economic and Resource Trajectories for Humankind (CIM-EARTH). In this paper, we describe the key features of the CIM-EARTH framework and initial implementation, detail the model instance we use for studying the impacts of a carbon tax on international trade and the sensitivity of these impacts to assumptions on the rate of change in energy efficiency and labor productivity, and present results on the extent to which carbon leakage limits global reductions in emissions for some policy scenarios.

These materials store charge through both electric double-layer charging and faradaic reactions in the oxide. The dimensions of the oxide nanomaterials have a strong influence on the performance of such capacitors. Not just due to surface area effects, which influence the double-layer capacitance, but also through bulk electrical and ionic conductivities. Ni(OH)(2) is a prime candidate for such applications, due to low cost and high theoretical capacity. We have examined the relationship between diameter and capacity for Ni/Ni(OH)(2) nanorods. Specific capacitances of up to 511 F/g of Ni were recorded in 47 nm diameter Ni(OH)(2) nanorods. C1 [Limmer, S. J.; Yelton, W. G.; Bunker, B. C.] Sandia Natl Labs, Albuquerque, NM 87185 USA.

In this work we report a new generation NBB that utilizes a planar design. The planar design allows for a thinner electrolyte that reduces the area of specific resistance and may be operated at reduced temperatures. The lower operating temperatures would alleviate adverse temperature effects that impact cycle life and overall cost. We here present recent progress generated from planar NBB button cells, including initial cell performance, cathode design and chemistry.

TI Predicting Vertical Connectivity Within an Aquifer System SO BAYESIAN ANALYSIS LA English DT Article DE Markov chain Monte Carlo; Gaussian process; subjective likelihood; spatial model AB The subsurface environment beneath the Municipality of Bologna, Italy, is comprised of a series of alluvial deposits which constitute large and productive aquifer systems. These are separated from the shallow, free surface aquifer by a low permeability barrier called aquitard Alpha. The upper aquifer contains water that shows relevant contamination from industrial pollutants. The deep aquifers are relatively pristine and provide about 80% of all groundwater used for drinking and industrial purposes in the area of Bologna. Hence, it is imperative that planners understand where along aquitard Alpha there exists potential direct connection between the upper and the deep aquifers, which could lead to contamination of the city's key water supply well fields. In order to better assess the existence of preferential flow paths between these aquifer systems, we carry out a statistical analysis in which the aquitard is represented as a bivariate spatial process, accounting for dependence between the two spatial components. The first process models its effective thickness. The second process is binary, modeling the presence or absence of direct vertical connections between the aquifers. This map is then cross referenced with other forms of data regarding the hydrology of the region. C1 [Short, Margaret] Univ Alaska Fairbanks, Dept Stat, Fairbanks, AK 99775 USA.

Since hydrogels have been found to be useful for chemical sensing and delivery, there is a growing interest in their use for medicine. This, requires a thorough understanding of the hydrogels characteristic response to pH. The hydrogel response can be explained by various physical equations which are often challenging to solve. We discuss the simulation of such phase-transitions in steady-state conditions emphasizing the response to solvent pH and other environmental stimuli. We demonstrate a method for simulating pH response of hydrogels and describe numerical model and its implementation in detail. Though a few models have been developed for simulation of these hydrogel characteristics, these have been based on custom programs implemented in individual laboratories and often not generally accessible. Hence, our modeling effort is implemented using the generic finite element software COMSOL and the method can be used with any software having similar capabilities. The effect of buffer solution concentration, fixed charge density, the solution pH on the swelling characteristics are studied. Results are compared with published experimental data.

It relies on compilers to target modern hardware architectures for optimal performance. A variety of extensible and robust research compilers are key to OpenMP's sustainable success in the future. In this paper, we present our efforts to build an OpenMP 3.0 research compiler for C, C++, and Fortran using the ROSE source-to-source compiler framework. Our goal is to support OpenMP research for ourselves and others. We have extended ROSE's internal representation to handle all OpenMP 3.0 constructs, thus facilitating experimenting with them. Since OpenMP research is often complicated by the tight coupling of the compiler translation and the runtime system, we present. a set of rules to define a common OpenMP runtime library (XOMP) on top of multiple runtime libraries. These rules additionally define how to build a set of translations targeting XOMP. Our work demonstrates how to reuse OpenMP translations across different runtime libraries. This work simplifies OpenMP research by decoupling the problematic dependence between the compiler translations and the runtime libraries. We present an evaluation of our work by demonstrating an analysis tool for OpenMP correctness. We also show how XOMP can be defined using both GOMP and Omni. Our comparative performance results against other OpenMP compilers demonstrate that our flexible runtime support does not incur additional overhead.

Unfortunately all of these phenomena can be expected to occur on something like the same timescale. This makes it especially difficult to tie a particular system to a particular set of evolutionary processes. Theory suggests that very close binaries should appear in four morphological forms: detached binaries, semidetached binaries in which the more massive component is the one that fills its Roche lobe (reverse Algols), semidetached binaries in which the less massive component is the one that fills its Roche lobe (normal Algols), and contact, or, as some would say, overcontact binaries, where both components overfill their Roche lobes up to the same equipotential surface. This is not to say that perhaps some other configuration may be important, but I am not sure that any has yet been put forward that is incontrovertible. I have developed an evolutionary code in which the two components are solved simultaneously, and subject in principle to all six of the processes in the first paragraph. All four morphological forms are achievable by the code, as the physics demands. The code is still preliminary, partly at least because of the difficulty of quantifying all six processes. I will illustrate some possibly peculiar evolutionary scenarios that can emerge; but I will mainly argue, on the basis of observed data from a variety of systems, that it is indeed necessary to include all these processes, and not, for example, to ignore mass loss by stellar wind by claiming that it cannot be strong enough to be significant.

We argue that this proves that the third body is necessary in order to make the inner period so short, and further argue that the only reasonable explanation is that the third body causes shrinkage of the inner period, from perhaps a week or more to the current short period, by means of the combination of Kozai cycles and tidal friction (KCTF). In addition, once KCTF has produced a rather close binary, magnetic braking also combined with tidal friction (MBTF) can decrease the inner orbit further, to the formation of a contact binary or even a merged single star. Some of the the products of KCTF that have been suggested, either by others or by us, are W UMa binaries, Blue Stragglers, X-ray active BY Dra stars, and short-period Algols. We also argue that some components of wide binaries are actually merged remnants of former close inner pairs. This may include such objects as rapidly rotating dwarfs (AB Dor, BO Mic) and some (but not all) Be stars. C1 [Kisseleva-Eggleton, L.] Express Coll, 6601 Shellmound St, Emeryville, CA 94608 USA.

The resulting solids, amorphous cellulose, from corn stover, switchgrass, common reed, poplar, and hemp herds, showed high glucan digestibilities and fast enzymatic hydrolysis rates. Utilization of co-products fractionated from lignocellulose (e.g., lignin, acetic acid, and hemicellulose) would greatly increase overall potential revenues of the future biorefineries.

The main focus is on investigations of environmental drivers of GPP and TER and how they affect the inter-annual variation in the carbon balance in autumn (September-December). We used standard climate data and CO(2) exchange measurements collected by the eddy covariance (EC) technique over 11 years. EC data revealed that increasing autumn temperature significantly enhances TER: the temperature sensitivity was 9.5 gC m(-2) degrees C(-1) for the period September-October (early autumn when high radiation levels still occur) and 3.8 gC m(-2) degrees C(-1) for November-December (late autumn with suppressed radiation level). The cumulative GPP was practically independent of the temperature in early autumn. In late autumn, air temperature could explain part of the variation in GPP but the temperature sensitivity was very weak, less than 1 gC m(-2) degrees C(-1). Two models, a stand photosynthesis model (COCA) and a global vegetation model (ORCHIDEE), were used for estimating stand GPP and its sensitivity to the temperature. The ORCHIDEE model was tested against the observations of GPP derived from EC data. The stand photosynthesis model COCA predicted that under a predescribed 3-6 degrees C temperature increase, the temperature sensitivity of 4-5 gC m(-2) degrees C(-1) in GPP may appear in early autumn. The analysis by the ORCHIDEE model revealed the model sensitivity to the temporal treatment of meteorological forcing. The model predictions were similar to observed ones when the site level 1/2-hourly time step was applied, but the results calculated by using daily meteorological forcing, interpolated to 1/2-hourly time step, were biased. This is due to the nonlinear relationship between the processes and the environmental factors. C1 [Vesala, T.; Launiainen, S.] Univ Helsinki, Dept Phys, FIN-00014 Helsinki, Finland.

TI Information content of incubation experiments for inverse estimation of pools in the Rothamsted carbon model: a Bayesian perspective SO BIOGEOSCIENCES LA English DT Article ID SOIL ORGANIC-MATTER; FUMIGATION-EXTRACTION METHOD; LONG-TERM EXPERIMENTS; MICROBIAL BIOMASS-C; CALIBRATION; DYNAMICS; CLIMATE; STABILIZATION; UNCERTAINTY; FRACTIONS AB A major drawback of current soil organic carbon (SOC) models is that their conceptually defined pools do not necessarily correspond to measurable SOC fractions in real practice. This not only impairs our ability to rigorously evaluate SOC models but also makes it difficult to derive accurate initial states of the individual carbon pools. In this study, we tested the feasibility of inverse modelling for estimating pools in the Rothamsted carbon model (ROTHC) using mineralization rates observed during incubation experiments. This inverse approach may provide an alternative to existing SOC fractionation methods. To illustrate our approach, we used a time series of synthetically generated mineralization rates using the ROTHC model. We adopted a Bayesian approach using the recently developed DiffeRential Evolution Adaptive Metropolis (DREAM) algorithm to infer probability density functions of the various carbon pools at the start of incubation. The Kullback-Leibler divergence was used to quantify the information content of the mineralization rate data. Our results indicate that measured mineralization rates generally provided sufficient information to reliably estimate all carbon pools in the ROTHC model. The incubation time necessary to appropriately constrain all pools was about 900 days. The use of prior information on microbial biomass carbon significantly reduced the uncertainty of the initial carbon pools, decreasing the required incubation time to about 600 days. Simultaneous estimation of initial carbon pools and decomposition rate constants significantly increased the uncertainty of the carbon pools. This effect was most pronounced for the intermediate and slow pools. Altogether, our results demonstrate that it is particularly difficult to derive reasonable estimates of the humified organic matter pool and the inert organic matter pool from inverse modelling of mineralization rates observed during incubation experiments.

TI Fire dynamics during the 20th century simulated by the Community Land Model SO BIOGEOSCIENCES LA English DT Article ID GLOBAL VEGETATION MODEL; BURNED AREA; TERRESTRIAL CARBON; SATELLITE DATA; PART I; BIOMASS; EMISSIONS; CLIMATE; ECOSYSTEMS; REGIMES AB Fire is an integral Earth System process that interacts with climate in multiple ways. Here we assessed the parametrization of fires in the Community Land Model (CLM-CN) and improved the ability of the model to reproduce contemporary global patterns of burned areas and fire emissions. In addition to wildfires we extended CLM-CN to account for fires related to deforestation. We compared contemporary fire carbon emissions predicted by the model to satellite-based estimates in terms of magnitude and spatial extent as well as interannual and seasonal variability. Long-term trends during the 20th century were compared with historical estimates. Overall we found the best agreement between simulation and observations for the fire parametrization based on the work by Arora and Boer (2005). We obtained substantial improvement when we explicitly considered human caused ignition and fire suppression as a function of population density. Simulated fire carbon emissions ranged between 2.0 and 2.4 Pg C/year for the period 1997-2004. Regionally the simulations had a low bias over Africa and a high bias over South America when compared to satellite-based products. The net terrestrial carbon source due to land use change for the 1990s was 1.2 Pg C/year with 11% stemming from deforestation fires. During 2000-2004 this flux decreased to 0.85 Pg C/year with a similar relative contribution from deforestation fires. Between 1900 and 1960 we predicted a slight downward trend in global fire emissions caused by reduced fuels as a consequence of wood harvesting and also by increases in fire suppression. The model predicted an upward trend during the last three decades of the 20th century as a result of climate variations and large burning events associated with ENSO-induced drought conditions.

While many factors contribute to functional specialization, we explore the effect of neuronal density on the development of neuronal interactions in vitro. Two types of cortical networks, namely, dense and sparse with 50,000 and 12,500 total cells, respectively, are studied. Activation graphs that represent pairwise neuronal interactions are constructed using a competitive first response model. These graphs reveal that, during development in vitro, dense networks form activation connections earlier than sparse networks. Link entropy analysis of dense network activation graphs suggests that the majority of connections between electrodes are reciprocal in nature. Information theoretic measures reveal that early functional information interactions (among three electrodes) are synergetic in both dense and sparse networks. However, during later stages of development, previously synergetic relationships become primarily redundant in dense, but not in sparse networks. Large link entropy values in the activation graph are related to the domination of redundant ensembles in late stages of development in dense networks. Results demonstrate differences between dense and sparse networks in terms of informational groups, pairwise relationships, and activation graphs. These differences suggest that variations in cell density may result in different functional specializations of nervous system tissue in vivo.

Many indices have been promoted in the literature, but each has unique sets of advantages and disadvantages. Using marbled salamanders, I evaluated the performance of several measures by manipulating intensity of sexual selection in experimental breeding replicates of varying operational sex ratio. Theory predicts that sexual selection among males will be higher when sex ratio is male-biased and lower when female-biased. I used microsatellite data to assign hatchling parentage, estimate adult fitness, and calculate several indices of inequality for quantifying sexual selection. Opportunity for selection and Morisita index always conformed to theoretical expectations, which was not the case for index of resource monopolization, standardized Morisita index, or binomial skew index. Although I conclude that opportunity for selection is advantageous in sexual selection studies because of its link to formal theory, this should be tested against the null hypothesis of random variation in ambiguous cases. In the present study, although variation in both reproductive and mating success was high when quantified using opportunities for selection, it was only significantly greater than random expectations for reproductive success. This study provides further empirical support for the continued use of opportunity for selection in sexual selection studies.

Building upon extensive neuroscience research on hippocampal processing, neural density, and connectivity we have implemented a computational architecture using variants of adaptive resonance theory artificial neural networks. Consequently, this model is capable of encoding, storing and processing multi-modal sensory inputs as well as simulating qualitative memory phenomena such as auto-association and recall. The performance of the model is compared with human subject performance. Thus, in this paper we present a neurologically plausible artificial neural network computational architecture of episodic memory and recall modeled after cortical-hippocampal structure and function.

The corn ethanol plant requires 5.6 MW of electricity and 52.3 MW of process heat, which creates the annual stover demand of as much as 140 Gg. The corn stover supply system consists of collection, pre-processing, transportation and on-site fuel storage and preparation to produce heat and power for the ethanol plant. Economics of the entire supply system was conducted using the Integrated Biomass Supply Analysis and Logistics (IBSAL) simulation model. Corn stover was delivered in three formats (square dry chops and pellets) to the combined heat and power plant. Delivered cost of biomass ready to be burned was calculated at 73 $ Mg(-1) for bales, 86 $ Mg(-1) for pellets and 84 $ Mg(-1) for field chopped biomass. Among the three formats of stover supply systems, delivered cost of pelleted biomass was the highest due to high pelleting cost. Bulk transport of biomass in the form of chops and pellets can provide a promising future biomass supply logistic system in the US, if the costs of pelleting and transport are minimized.

In this work, a computational model that enables a quantitative description of the light-induced proton gradients across the membrane of PSI proteoliposomes is presented. Using a set of electrodiffusion equations, a compartmental model of a vesicle suspended in aqueous medium was studied. The light-mediated proton movement was modeled as a single proton pumping step with backpressure of the electric potential. The model fits determinations of pH obtained from PSI proteoliposomes illuminated in the presence of mediators of cyclic electron transport. The model also allows analysis of the proton gradients in relation to the transmembrane ion fluxes and electric potential. Sensitivity analysis enabled a determination of the parameters that have greater influence on steady-state levels and onset/decay rates of transmembrane pH and electric potential, This model could be used as a tool for optimizing PSI proteoliposomes for photo-electrochemical applications.

Compaction characteristics affecting the bulk density of switchgrass, wheat straw, and corn stover chopped in a knife mill at different operating conditions and using four different classifying screens were studied. Mean loose-filled bulk densities were 67.5 +/- 18.4 kg/m(3) for switchgrass, 36.1 +/- 8.6 kg/m(3) for wheat straw, and 52.1 +/- 10.8 kg/m(3) for corn stover. Mean tapped bulk densities were 81.8 +/- 26.2 kg/m(3) for switchgrass, 42.8 +/- 11.7 kg/m(3) for wheat straw, and 58.9 +/- 13.4 kg/m(3) for corn stover. Percentage changes in compressibility due to variation in particle size obtained from a knife mill ranged from 64.3 to 173.6 for chopped switchgrass, 22.2-51.5 for chopped wheat straw and 42.1-117.7 for chopped corn stover within the tested consolidation pressure range of 5-120 kPa. Pressure and volume relationship of chopped biomass during compression with application of normal pressure can be characterized by the Walker model and Kawakita and Ludde model. Parameter of Walker model was correlated to the compressibility with Pearson correlation coefficient greater than 0.9. Relationship between volume reduction in chopped biomass with respect to number of tappings studied using Sone's model indicated that infinite compressibility was highest for chopped switchgrass followed by chopped wheat straw and corn stover. Degree of difficulty in packing measured using the parameters of Sone's model indicated that the chopped wheat straw particles compacted very rapidly by tapping compared to chopped switchgrass and corn stover. These results are very useful for solving obstacles in handling bulk biomass supply logistics issues for a biorefinery. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Seven compositionally-different stovers obtained from various locations throughout the United States were pretreated at three different conditions in triplicate in a pilot-scale continuous reactor. At the same pretreatment severity, a 2-fold increase in monomeric xylose yield and a 1.5-fold increase in enzymatic cellulose digestibility from their lowest values were found. Similar results were observed at the other pretreatment conditions. It was found that xylose conversion yields decreased with increasing acid neutralization capacity or soil content of the corn stover. Xylose yields also increased with increasing xylan content. No other significant correlations between corn stover's component concentrations and conversion yields were found. (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.

Metabolic flux analysis is often based on isotopomer information front proteinogenic amino acids. As such, flux analysis primarily reflects the metabolism pertinent to the growth phase during which most proteins are synthesized. To investigate central metabolism and amino acids synthesis activity during stationary phase, addition of fully (13)C-labeled glucose followed by induction of green fluorescent protein (GFP) expression during stationary phase was used. Our results indicate that Escherichia coli was able to produce new proteins (i.e., GFP) in the stationary phase, and the amino acids in GFP were mostly from degraded proteins synthesized during the exponential growth phase. Among amino acid biosynthetic pathways, only those for serine, alanine, glutamate/glutamine, and aspartate/asparagine had significant activity during the stationary phase.

One critical area is the development of robust cofermentative organisms to convert the multiple, mixed sugars found in biomass feedstocks to ethanol at high yields and titers without the need for processing to remove inhibitors. Until such microorganisms are commercialized, the challenge is to design processes that exploit the current microorganisms' strengths. This study explored various process configurations tailored to take advantage of the specific capabilities of three microorganisms, Z. mobilis 8b, S. cerevisiae, and S. pastorianus. A technoeconomic study, based on bench-scale experimental data generated by integrated process testing, was completed to understand the resulting costs of the different process configurations. The configurations included whole slurry fermentation with a coculture, and separate cellulose simultaneous saccharification and fermentation (SSF) and xylose fermentations with none, some or all of the water to the SSF replaced with the fermented liquor from the xylose fermentation. The difference between the highest and lowest ethanol cost for the different experimental process configurations studied was $0.27 per gallon ethanol. Separate fermentation of solid and liquor streams with recycle of fermented liquor to dilute the solids gave the lowest ethanol cost, primarily because this option achieved the highest concentrations of ethanol after fermentation. Further studies, using methods similar to ones employed here, can help understand and improve the performance and hence the economics of integrated processes involving enzymes and fermentative microorganisms.

TI Fast Enzymatic Saccharification of Switchgrass After Pretreatment with Ionic Liquids SO BIOTECHNOLOGY PROGRESS LA English DT Article DE cellulose; hemicellulose; xylan; pretreatment; ionic liquid; saccharification; enzymatic hydrolysis ID CELLULOSE HYDROLYSIS; XYLOSE FERMENTATION; LIGNOCELLULOSIC MATERIALS; INDUSTRIAL APPLICATIONS; MICROBIAL XYLANASES; ETHANOL-PRODUCTION; WOOD; HEMICELLULOSE; DISSOLUTION; GLUCOSE AB The pretreatment of cellulose using. ionic liquids (ILs) has been shown to be an effective method for improving the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulose; this technique affords a fast and complete saccharification of cellulose into reducing sugars (Dadi et al., Biotechnol Bioeng. 2006; 95:904-910; Lilt and Chen, Chinese Sci Bull. 2006; 51:2432-2436; Zhao et al., J Biotechnol. 2009; 139:47-54). Motivated by these advances, this study examines the effect of IL-pretreatment on the enzymatic hydrolysis of purified xylan (as a model system of hemicellulose) and switchgrass (as a real lignocellulose). The IL-pretreatment resulted in no improvement in the hydrolysis of xylan. The likely reason is that pure xylan has a low degree of polymerization (DP), and is readily biodegraded even without any pretreatment. However, in real cellulosic materials (such as switchgrass), xylan is entrapped within the cellulosic matrix, and cannot be conveniently accessed by enzymes. Our data demonstrate that the IL-pretreatment of switchgrass significantly improved the enzymatic saccharification of both cellulose (96% D-glucose yield in 24 h) and xylan (63% D-xylose yield in 24 h). The compositional analysis of switchgrass suggests a lower lignin content after IL-pretreatment. In addition, the infrared spectrum of regenerated switchgrass indicates a lower substrate crystallinity, whereas the enzyme adsorption isotherm further implies that the regenerated substrate is more accessible to enzymes. This study has further confirmed that IL-pretreatment is an effective tool in enhancing the enzymatic hydrolysis of cellulosic biomass, and allowing a more complete saccharification.

What are the rules connecting gene expression levels with sequence determinants such as quantitative scores of promoters and terminators? Are translation efficiency measures, e. g. codon adaptation index and RBS score related to gene expression? We used the whole transcriptome shotgun sequencing of a bacterial pathogen Bacillus anthracis to assess correlation of gene expression level with promoter, terminator and RBS scores, codon adaptation index, as well as with a new measure of gene translational efficiency, average translation speed. We compared computational predictions of operon topologies with the transcript borders inferred from RNA-Seq reads. Transcriptome mapping may also improve existing gene annotation. Upon assessment of accuracy of current annotation of protein-coding genes in the B. anthracis genome we have shown that the transcriptome data indicate existence of more than a hundred genes missing in the annotation though predicted by an ab initio gene finder. Interestingly, we observed that many pseudogenes possess not only a sequence with detectable coding potential but also promoters that maintain transcriptional activity.

Obesity is associated with greater bone mineral content that might be expected to protect against fracture, which has been observed in adults. Paradoxically, however, the incidence of bone fractures has been found to increase in overweight and obese children and adolescents. Prior studies have shown some reduced mechanical properties as a result of high-fat diet (HFD) but do not fully address size-independent measures of mechanical properties, which are important to understand material behavior. To clarify the effects of HFD on the mechanical properties and microstructure of bone, femora from C57BL/6 mice fed either a HFD or standard laboratory chow (Chow) were evaluated for structural changes and tested for bending strength, bending stiffness and fracture toughness. Here, we find that in young, obese, high-fat fed mice, all geometric parameters of the femoral bone, except length, are increased, but strength, bending stiffness, and fracture toughness are all reduced. This increased bone size and reduced size-independent mechanical properties suggests that obesity leads to a general reduction in bone quality despite an increase in bone quantity; yield and maximum loads, however, remained unchanged, suggesting compensatory mechanisms. We conclude that diet-induced obesity increases bone size and reduces size-independent mechanical properties of cortical bone in mice. This study indicates that bone quantity and bone quality play important compensatory roles in determining fracture risk. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved. C1 [Ionova-Martin, S.

Simulations of two 24-h periods are conducted while varying S between 0, 0.001 and 0.002 ms(-1), and the resulting quasi-equilibrium ABL structures and evolutions are examined. Simulations conducted with S = 0 yield a boundary layer that is deeper, more strongly mixed and cools more rapidly than the observations. Simulations conducted with S > 0 yield improved agreement with the observations in the ABL height, potential temperature gradients and bulk heating rates. We also demonstrate that S > 0 limits the continuous growth of the ABL observed during quasi-steady conditions, leading to the formation of a nearly steady ABL of approximately uniform depth and temperature. Subsidence reduces the magnitudes of the stresses, as well as the implied eddy-diffusivity coefficients for momentum and heat, while increasing the vertical heat fluxes considerably. Subsidence is also observed to increases the Richardson number to values in excess of unity well below the ABL top.

It was found that this thermocouple measured the air temperature with root-mean-square errors of 0.35 K within the Gill shield without correction. A linear temperature correction was evaluated based on the difference between the interior plate and thermocouple temperatures. This correction was found to be relatively insensitive to shield design and yielded an error of 0.16 K for combined day and night observations. The correction was reliable in the daytime when the wind speed usually exceeds 1 m s(-1) but occasionally performed poorly at night during very light winds. Inspection of the standard deviation in the thermocouple wire temperature identified these periods but did not unambiguously locate the most serious events. However, estimates of sensor accuracy during these periods is complicated by the much larger sampling volume of the mechanically-aspirated sensor compared with the naturally-aspirated sensor and the presence of significant near-surface temperature gradients. The root-mean-square errors therefore are upper limits to the aspiration error since they include intrinsic sensor differences and intermittent volume sampling differences.

Schiff, Rachel TI Proteomic and transcriptomic profiling reveals a link between the PI3K pathway and lower estrogen-receptor (ER) levels and activity in ER plus breast cancer SO BREAST CANCER RESEARCH LA English DT Article ID ADJUVANT ENDOCRINE THERAPY; GENE-EXPRESSION SIGNATURE; PROGESTERONE-RECEPTOR; CLINICAL-IMPLICATIONS; AKT ACTIVATION; CELLS; TAMOXIFEN; PTEN; RESISTANCE; GROWTH AB Introduction: Accumulating evidence suggests that both levels and activity of the estrogen receptor (ER) and the progesterone receptor (PR) are dramatically influenced by growth-factor receptor (GFR) signaling pathways, and that this crosstalk is a major determinant of both breast cancer progression and response to therapy. The phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3K) pathway, a key mediator of GFR signaling, is one of the most altered pathways in breast cancer. We thus examined whether deregulated PI3K signaling in luminal ER+ breast tumors is associated with ER level and activity and intrinsic molecular subtype. Methods: We defined two independent molecular signatures of the PI3K pathway: a proteomic (reverse-phase proteomic array) PI3K signature, based on protein measurement for PI3K signaling intermediates, and a PI3K transcriptional (mRNA) signature based on the set of genes either induced or repressed by PI3K inhibitors. By using these signatures, we scored each ER+ breast tumor represented in multiple independent expression-profiling datasets (four mRNA, n = 915; one protein, n = 429) for activation of the PI3K pathway. Effects of PI3K inhibitor BEZ-235 on ER expression and activity levels and cell growth were tested by quantitative real-time PCR and cell proliferation assays. Results: Within ER+ tumors, ER levels were negatively correlated with the PI3K activation scores, both at the proteomic and transcriptional levels, in all datasets examined. PI3K signature scores were also higher in ER+ tumors and cell lines of the more aggressive luminal B molecular subtype versus those of the less aggressive luminal A subtype. Notably, BEZ-235 treatment in four different ER+ cell lines increased expression of ER and ER target genes including PR, and treatment with IGF-I (which signals via PI3K) decreased expression of ER and target genes, thus further establishing an inverse functional relation between ER and PI3K. BEZ-235 had an additional effect on tamoxifen in inhibiting the growth of a number of ER+ cell lines. Conclusions: Our data suggest that luminal B tumors have hyperactive GFR/PI3K signaling associated with lower ER levels, which has been correlated with resistance to endocrine therapy. Targeting PI3K in these tumors might reverse loss of ER expression and signaling and restore hormonal sensitivity.

Mao, Jian-Hua TI The expression level of HJURP has an independent prognostic impact and predicts the sensitivity to radiotherapy in breast cancer SO BREAST CANCER RESEARCH LA English DT Article ID CENP-A; MITOTIC CHECKPOINT; CENTROMERES; SIGNATURE; PATTERNS; SUBTYPES; GRADE AB Introduction: HJURP (Holliday Junction Recognition Protein) is a newly discovered gene reported to function at centromeres and to interact with CENPA. However its role in tumor development remains largely unknown. The goal of this study was to investigate the clinical significance of HJURP in breast cancer and its correlation with radiotherapeutic outcome. Methods: We measured HJURP expression level in human breast cancer cell lines and primary breast cancers by Western blot and/or by Affymetrix Microarray; and determined its associations with clinical variables using standard statistical methods. Validation was performed with the use of published microarray data. We assessed cell growth and apoptosis of breast cancer cells after radiation using high-content image analysis. Results: HJURP was expressed at higher level in breast cancer than in normal breast tissue. HJURP mRNA levels were significantly associated with estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), Scarff-Bloom-Richardson (SBR) grade, age and Ki67 proliferation indices, but not with pathologic stage, ERBB2, tumor size, or lymph node status. Higher HJURP mRNA levels significantly decreased disease-free and overall survival. HJURP mRNA levels predicted the prognosis better than Ki67 proliferation indices. In a multivariate Cox proportional-hazard regression, including clinical variables as covariates, HJURP mRNA levels remained an independent prognostic factor for disease-free and overall survival. In addition HJURP mRNA levels were an independent prognostic factor over molecular subtypes (normal like, luminal, Erbb2 and basal). Poor clinical outcomes among patients with high HJURP expression were validated in five additional breast cancer cohorts. Furthermore, the patients with high HJURP levels were much more sensitive to radiotherapy. In vitro studies in breast cancer cell lines showed that cells with high HJURP levels were more sensitive to radiation treatment and had a higher rate of apoptosis than those with low levels. Knock down of HJURP in human breast cancer cells using shRNA reduced the sensitivity to radiation treatment. HJURP mRNA levels were significantly correlated with CENPA mRNA levels. Conclusions: HJURP mRNA level is a prognostic factor for disease-free and overall survival in patients with breast cancer and is a predictive biomarker for sensitivity to radiotherapy.

These senescent cells display increased size, contain senescence associated beta-galactosidase activity, and express cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitor, p16(INK4A) (CDKN2A; p16). However, HMEC grown in a serum-free medium, spontaneously yield, at low frequency, variant (v) HMEC that are capable of long-term growth and are susceptible to genomic instability. We investigated whether ionizing radiation, which increases breast cancer risk in women, affects the rate of vHMEC outgrowth. Methods: Pre-stasis HMEC cultures were exposed to 5 to 200 cGy of sparsely (X- or gamma-rays) or densely (1 GeV/amu (56)Fe) ionizing radiation. Proliferation (bromodeoxyuridine incorporation), senescence (senescence-associated beta-galactosidase activity), and p16 expression were assayed in subcultured irradiated or unirradiated populations four to six weeks following radiation exposure, when patches of vHMEC became apparent. Long-term growth potential and p16 promoter methylation in subsequent passages were also monitored. Agent-based modeling, incorporating a simple set of rules and underlying assumptions, was used to simulate vHMEC outgrowth and evaluate mechanistic hypotheses. Results: Cultures derived from irradiated cells contained significantly more vHMEC, lacking senescence associated beta-galactosidase or p16 expression, than cultures derived from unirradiated cells. As expected, post-stasis vHMEC cultures derived from both unirradiated and irradiated cells exhibited more extensive methylation of the p16 gene than pre-stasis HMEC cultures. However, the extent of methylation of individual CpG sites in vHMEC samples did not correlate with passage number or treatment. Exposure to sparsely or densely ionizing radiation elicited similar increases in the numbers of vHMEC compared to unirradiated controls. Agent-based modeling indicated that radiation-induced premature senescence of normal HMEC most likely accelerated vHMEC outgrowth through alleviation of spatial constraints. Subsequent experiments using defined co-cultures of vHMEC and senescent cells supported this mechanism. Conclusions: Our studies indicate that ionizing radiation can promote the outgrowth of epigenetically altered cells with pre-malignant potential.

Many SHM projects involving wireless sensor nodes have been conducted, but usually over very short time frames with most tests lasting only a matter of days. In this paper, the WID3 is cast as the integral component of a permanent SHM system at a remote civil infrastructure installation, such as a highway bridge. The current generation WID3 is equipped with an Analog Devices AD5933 impedance chip that can resolve measurements up to 100 kHz, a frequency range ideal for many SHM applications. The WID3 combines on-board processing, data storage, wireless communications capabilities, and a series of internal and external triggering options into a single package to realize a truly comprehensive, self-contained wireless active-sensor node for SHM applications. The WID3 requires less than 70 mW of power to operate; its extremely low duty cycle requirements and its ability to operate in various wireless network paradigms make it ideal for permanent monitoring of remote civil infrastructure installations. Experimental results supporting the ability of the WID3 to accurately detect damage in a permanently installed configuration over a period of months are presented. C1 [Taylor, S. G.; Farinholt, K.

The energy harvesting approach examines the use of kinetic energy harvesters to scavenge energy from ambient sources. Acceleration measurements were made on a bridge, and these measurements serve as the basis for a series of laboratory experiments that replicate these sources using an electromagnetic shaker. We also investigated the use of wireless energy transmission systems to operate SHM sensor nodes. The goal of this investigation is to develop SHM sensing systems which can be permanently embedded in the host structure and do not require on-board power sources. This paper summarizes considerations needed to design such systems, experimental procedures and results, and additional issues that can be used as guidelines for future investigations. C1 [Taylor, S.

We focus on alignment dynamics of a coplanar pair of elongated swimmers, which propel themselves either by "pushing" or "pulling" both in three- and quasi-two-dimensional geometries of space. We derive asymptotic expressions for the dynamics of the pair, which complemented by numerical experiments, indicate that the tendency of bacteria to swim in or swim off depends strongly on the position of the propulsion force. In particular, we observe that positioning of the effective propulsion force inside the dumbbell results in qualitative agreement with the dynamics observed in experiments, such as mutual alignment of converging bacteria.

TI Aeromonas caviae strain induces Th1 cytokine response in mouse intestinal tract SO CANADIAN JOURNAL OF MICROBIOLOGY LA English DT Article DE Aeromonas caviae; Th1 response; interferon induced gene expression ID INFLAMMATORY BOWEL DISEASES; TRANSFER-RNA-SYNTHETASE; BARRIER FUNCTION; CELLS; MICE; IDENTIFICATION; MECHANISMS; INFECTION; VIRULENCE; PROTEINS AB Aeromonas caviae has been associated with human gastrointestinal disease. Strains of this species typically lack virulence factors (VFs) such as enterotoxins and hemolysins that are produced by other human pathogens of the Aeromonas genus. Microarray profiling of murine small intestinal extracts, 24 h after oral infection with an A. caviae strain, provides evidence of a Th1 type immune response. A large number of gamma-interferon (gamma-IFN) induced genes are up-regulated as well as several tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha) transcripts. Aeromonas caviae has always been considered an opportunistic pathogen because it lacks obvious virulence factors. This current effort suggests that an A. caviae strain can colonize the murine intestinal tract and cause what has been described by others as a dysregulatory cytokine response. This response could explain why a number of diarrheal waterborne disease cases have been attributed to A. caviae even though it lacks obvious enteropathogenic properties.

Yet despite intense efforts, including the application of modern high throughput technologies including transcriptomics and proteomics, there has been little improvement in performance compared to the gold standard of quantifying serum CA125 immunoreactivity paired with transvaginal ultrasound. This review describes the strategies that have been used for identification of ovarian cancer biomarkers, including the recent introduction of novel bioinformatic approaches. Results obtained using high throughput-based vs. biologically rational approaches for the discovery of diagnostic early detection biomarkers are compared and analyzed for functional enrichment.

A barrier to pursuing these applications is the reliance on immunization and hybridomas to produce mAbs, which is time-consuming and may not yield the desired mAb. We recommend a process flow for affinity reagent production that utilizes combinatorial protein display systems (e. g., yeast surface display or phage display) rather than hybridomas. These systems link a selectable phenotype-binding conferred by an antibody fragment-with a means for recovering the encoding gene. Recombinant libraries obtained from immunizations can produce high-affinity antibodies (< 10 nM) more quickly than other methods. Non-immune libraries provide an alternate route when immunizations are not possible, or when suitable mAbs are not recovered from an immune library. Directed molecular evolution (DME) is an integral part of optimizing mAbs obtained from combinatorial protein display, but can also be used on hybridoma-derived mAbs. Variants can easily be obtained and screened to increase the affinity of the parent mAb (affinity maturation). We discuss examples where DME has been used to tailor affinity reagents to specific applications. Combinatorial protein display also provides an accessible method for identifying antibody pairs, which are necessary for sandwich-type diagnostic assays.

A significant challenge in the growth of aligned single, double and triple walled nanotubes is in the deposition of a controlled thickness catalyst layer. Conventional techniques using line of sight deposition such as sputtering and evaporation produce uniform catalyst layers only when extreme care is taken in the placement of flat substrates. Growth of aligned low wall number carbon nanotubes on contoured, complex geometry, or large surface area substrates is simply not technically feasible through these techniques. Using iron atomic layer deposition (ALD) with ferrocene and oxygen precursors for catalyst deposition circumvents the line of sight problems and allows for uniform coverage across almost all substrates. Furthermore the ALD technique allows for extremely accurate and reproducible thickness depositions. Using these ALD catalyst layers reproducible aligned arrays consisting of primarily double and triple wall CNTS can be fabricated. Conformal coatings onto high aspect ratio surfaces are particularly challenging. The walls of single carbon nanotubes in a nanotube array are inaccessible by line of sight techniques. ALD circumvents this problem by relying on a gas-surface reaction to initiate growth. Generally, growth of ALD films on CNTs results in beading of the deposited materials around CNT defects. This is particularly true of high surface energy materials. The number of nucleation sites and the onset of growth of Pt by ALD can be tuned by use of Ar plasma, O2 plasma and chemical functionalization.

The strategy is illustrated through an example of a learning package that was evaluated for effectiveness, efficiency, and acceptability. The evaluation demonstrated that this approach produced greater learning gains than a traditional approach and was cost-effective.

Eukaryotes have evolved mechanisms to assure the fidelity of chromosome segregation during cell division that include a multiplicity of checks and controls. One of the main cell division control mechanisms is the spindle assembly checkpoint (SAC) that monitors the proper attachment of chromosomes to spindle fibers and prevents anaphase until all kinetochores are properly attached. The mammalian SAC is composed of at least 14 evolutionary-conserved proteins that work in a coordinated fashion to monitor the establishment of amphitelic attachment of all chromosomes before allowing cell division to occur. Among the SAC proteins, the budding uninhibited by benzimidazole protein 1 (Bub1), is a highly conserved protein of prominent importance for the proper functioning of the SAC. Studies have revealed many roles for Bub1 in both mitosis and meiosis, including the localization of other SAC proteins to the kinetochore, SAC signaling, metaphase congression and the protection of sister chromatid cohesion. Recent data show striking sex specific differences in the response of germ cells to alterations in Bub1 activity. Proper Bub1 functioning is particularly important during oogenesis in preventing the generation of aneuploid gametes that can have detrimental effects on the health status of the fetus and the newborn. These data suggest that Bub1 is a master regulator of SAC and chromosomal segregation in both mitosis and meiosis. Elucidating its many essential functions in regulating proper chromosome segregation can have important consequences for preventing tumorigenesis and developmental abnormalities.

A goal for the separations processes is to efficiently manage the waste to be dispositioned as high level radioactive waste. The Advanced Fuel Cycle Initiative (AFCI) baseline technology for immobilization of the lanthanide (Ln) and transition metal fission product (TM) wastes is vitrification into a borosilicate glass. A current interest is to evaluate the feasibility of vitrifying combined waste streams to most cost effectively immobilize the wastes resulting from aqueous fuel reprocessing. Studies showed that high waste loadings are achievable for the Ln only (Option 1) stream. Waste loadings in excess of 60 wt (on a calcined oxide basis) were demonstrated via a lanthanide borosilicate (LaBS) glass. The resulting glasses had excellent relative durability as determined by the Product Consistency Test (PCT). For a combined Ln and TM waste stream glass (Option 2), noble metal solubility was found to limit waste loading. However, the measured PCT normalized elemental releases for this glass were at least an order of magnitude below that of Environmental Assessment (EA) glass. Current efforts to evaluate the feasibility of vitrifying combined Ln, TM, alkali (Cs is the primary radionuclide of concern) and alkaline earth (Sr is the primary radionuclide of concern) wastes (Option 3) have shown that these approaches are feasible. However, waste loading limitations with respect to heat load (Cs/Sr loading), molybdenum solubility and/or noble metal solubility will likely be realized and must be considered in determining the cost effectiveness of these approaches.

The batch was heated to a temperature of 1500 degrees C at a rate of 10 degrees C/min followed by holding for 30 min and cooling down to room temperature at a rate of 10 degrees C/min. The product was re-milled, heated and cooled by the same procedure in an attempt to better homogenize the glass. The product obtained was visually homogeneous. X-ray diffraction of the as-prepared glass indicated a major vitreous phase and minor concentrations of britholite and PuO2. The fraction of crystalline constituent appeared to increase with storage time. Fourier and wavelet transforms of EXAFS spectrum of Pu L-III edge showed that the intensity of the peak due to first co-ordination sphere was much higher than that due to the second co-ordination sphere. This indicated that despite the fact that some Pu entered crystalline phases (PuO2, britholite), a significant fraction of Pu remained in the vitreous phase. Plutonium in the glass is predominantly tetravalent. The oxygen environment of the Pu4+ ions in the vitreous phase resembles axially squeezed tetragonal pyramid with a coordination number similar to 5. C1 [Stefanovsky, S. V.; Ptashkin, A.

Two mixtures at 60 and 70 wt% SB4 waste loading were prepared as slurries with a water content of similar to 50 wt% using a waste surrogate and commercially available Frit 503-R4 (Li2O - 8 wt %, B2O3 - 16 wt %, SiO2 - 76 wt %). The mixtures were air-dried at a temperature of 115 degrees C and heat-treated at 500, 700, 900, 1000, 1100, 1200, and 1300 degrees C for 1 hr at each temperature. IR spectra and XRD patterns of the products heat-treated at each temperature were recorded. In both the mixtures phase formation reactions started at low temperatures and yielded intermediate phases (sodalite, pyroxene-type, nepheline), and reactions were mostly completed within the temperature range between 1000 and 1100 degrees C. The glassy materials prepared at 1200 degrees C were composed of vitreous phase and magnetite/trevorite type spinel. The materials with 60 wt.% waste loading prepared at 1300 and 1400 degrees C had the same phase composition whereas at 70 wt.% waste loading, nepheline phase was also detected resulting from crystallization from the melt.

In the spent fuel reprocessing scheme under consideration, the iodine is released in gaseous form and collected using Ag-loaded zeolites, to form AgI either directly in the zeolite or with subsequent reaction with silver. We have investigated the use of low temperature-sintering glass powders mixed with either AgI or AgI-zeolite to produce a stable waste form that can be processed at 500 degrees C, where AgI volatility is low. These mixtures can contain up to 20 wt% crushed AgI-zeolite and up to 50 wt% AgI. Crystallization of the BiZnB-oxide glass results in the encapsulation of the AgI, retaining it as a separate phase. The AgI-glass mixture was found to have the highest Iodine leach resistance in these initial studies.

CNT has a thermal conductivity of 4,000 W/m-K, which is twice that of diamond the best conductor on earth. CNTs can be either semi-conductor or metallic conductor, depending of its chirality. These remarkable properties enable CNTs to have enormous potential for advanced material applications, such as nanocomposites and in nanoelectronics. The application of CNTs on nanocomposites has been greatly hindered by two main factors the interface bonding between the carbon nanotubes and the matrix material, and the difficulty in getting a uniform dispersion of carbon nanotubes in the matrix. In the following research we present a new method of accomplishing uniform CNT distributions in a Silicon Carbide (SiC) matrix by direct in-situ growth of multiwalled nanotubes (MWNTs) on the SiC particles. This method ensures a more uniform dispersion of CNTs in the matrix than the traditional ex-situ CNT mixing methods. The other advantage of this method is that most of the CNTs grown are individual CNTs and not in the form of bundles.

Measurements were made to determine the impact of exposure on strength and swelling. The SiC clad tubes were fabricated by Ceramic Tubular Products (CTP) with dimensions typical of 15 x 15 commercial PWR reactor fuel. The triplex tubes contain 3 layers, an inner monolithic SiC layer to maintain hermeticity, a central SiC/SiC composite layer to provide a graceful failure mode in the event of an accident, and an outer SiC environmental barrier layer. Clad tubes were exposed to 300 degrees C pressurized water containing boric acid, lithium hydroxide, and hydrogen overpressure, typical of PWRs. Thirty nine (39) specimens of various types were exposed to coolant, some within the neutron flux region and some outside the neutron flux region. Twenty seven (27) were removed for examination and test after 4 months exposure. Following examination, twenty specimens were reinserted for additional exposure, along with 19 new specimens. The 4 month specimens were weighed and measured at MIT, and some were shipped to Oak Ridge National Laboratory (ORNL) where they were mechanically tested for hoop strength using a polyurethane plug test apparatus. Results were compared with the pre-irradiation strength and dimensions. Some specimens retained their original strength after exposure, others with a less homogeneous monolith, lost strength.

It was applied to nuclear graphite specimens in a variety of combination of sample thickness and loading ring diameter to investigate the influences on the stress uniformity within the loading ring. Although similar and relatively high Weibull modulus were observed for all conditions (m approximate to 20), the significant stress concentration associated with the large deflection was observed at the loading location for thinner specimens (t<0.2mm). However, the true local fracture stress was successfully estimated from the measured fracture load using finite element analysis. The method for estimating true local fracture. stress appear reasonable for evaluating the fracture strength of dense poly-crystalline graphite, and can be used for determination of the statistical parameters for fracture stress of graphite and pyrocarbon.

A crush testing method for hemispherical shell specimens was developed based on the results of finite element (FE) analysis on stress distribution and applied to the evaluation of fracture strength for the chemical vapor deposited (CVD) SiC layers of tri-isotropic (TRISO) fuel particles. A blanket material was used in the crush tests as the FE analysis confirmed that a relatively soft metal (brass foil) inserted between the specimen's convex surface and plunger tip produced a highly uniform stress under the contact area. Nine sets of hemispherical shell specimens were prepared from different versions of coated fuel particles, which include several relevant lots of coated fuel particles: AGR (advanced gas-cooled reactor) fuels, a German reference fuel, and other development fuels available at Oak Ridge National Laboratory. The coatings display variations in grain size and density, which originated from different conditions in coating processes. At least 30 specimens were tested at room temperature for each material and the fracture stress data were analyzed using Weibull statistics. The local fracture stress calculated was converted to the fracture stress for the whole inner surface area of each particle. Mean fracture stress varied with test material in the range of 330-650 MPa, however, could not be clearly connected to the microstructural characteristics.

The extended SB5 preparation time and desire to avoid a DWPF outage have necessitated the use of a frit that is already included on the DWPF procurement specification. Frit 418 has been used previously in vitrification of Sludge Batch 3 and was the transitional frit to Sludge Batch 4. Paper study assessments predict that Frit 418 will form an acceptable glass when combined with SB5 over a range of waste loadings (WLs), typically 30-41 wt% based on nominal projected SB5 compositions. Frit 418 has a relatively high degree of robustness with regard to potential variation in the projected SB5 composition, particularly when the Na(2)O concentration is varied. Frit 418 has not been designed to provide an optimal melt rate with SB5, but is recommended for initial processing of SB5 until experimental testing to optimizes frit composition for melt rate can be completed. Melt rate performance can not be predicted through the paper study assessments and must be determined experimentally.

Batches formulated for a high-alumina nuclear waste to he vitrified in an all-electric inciter were heated at a constant temperature-increase rate to determine changes in melting behavior in response to the selection of batch chemicals and silica grain-size as well as the addition of heat-generating reactants. The type of hatch materials and the size of silica grains determine how much, if any, primary foam occurs during melting. Small quartz grains, 5 mu m in size, caused extensive foaming because their major portion dissolved at temperatures <800 degrees C, contributing to the formation of viscous glass-forming melt that trapped evolving batch gases. Primary foam did not occur in batches with larger quartz grains, +/- 75 mu m in size, because their major portion dissolved at temperatures >800 degrees C when batch gases no longer evolved. The exothermal reaction of nitrates with sucrose was ignited at a temperature as low as 160 degrees C and caused a temporary jump in temperature of several hundred degrees. Secondary foam, the source of which is oxygen from redox reactions, occurred in all batches of a limited composition variation involving five oxides, B2O3, CaO, Li2O, MgO, and Na2O. The foam volume at the maximum volume-increase rate was a weak function of temperature and melt basicity. Neither the batch makeup nor the change in glass composition had a significant impact on the dissolution of silica grains. The impacts of primary foam generation on glass homogeneity and the rate of melting in large-scale continuous furnaces have yet to be established via mathematical modeling and melter experiments.

To understand the small-scale mechanical behavior of micropillars/fibers in composite materials, it is critical to develop techniques to characterize their defect distributions at appropriate length scales. Here we describe a new characterization technique appropriate for these samples, based on polychromatic and scanned monochromatic microdiffraction method. These techniques exploit small (similar to 100nm) beams that are now being available. These small penetrating beams can be used to probe very small volumes of materials to determine local strain gradients and defect states. We show how micro focused x-ray beams can be used to characterize the buried interface properties and strain gradient distributions in the as grown directionally solidified Ni-Mo composite.

Most structural materials are anisotropic on the grain level and thus the effects of intergranular strains must be considered, and combining the neutron diffraction measurements with polycrystal deformation modeling has proven invaluable in determining the overall stress and strain values of interest in designing and dimensioning engineering components. Furthermore, the combined use of diffraction measurements and polycrystal deformation modeling has provided a unique tool for elucidating basic material properties, such as critical resolved shear stresses for the active deformation modes and their evolution as a function of applied deformation.

Essential developments include a near field forward modeling algorithm, far-field high-resolution reciprocal space mapping, continuous tensile deformation capability, and combination with post-mortem electron microscopy. The beamline instrumentation is outlined and the status of the near- and far-field techniques is illustrated by selected case studies. The potential of the near-field mapping technique to investigate orientation gradients in deformed metals is discussed, and recent experimental results are presented on Ni and Al. The plastic deformation of a Ti-7A1 alloy is investigated by a combination of far-field diffraction and electron microscopy. Two material states of distinct dislocation microstructures are studied during continuous tensile deformation up to about 2% applied strain. Stress tensors of individual grains are evaluated and discussed in view to yield surface topology. The dislocation structures are investigated by high-resolution reciprocal space mapping and electron microscopy. C1 [Lienert, U.] Argonne Natl Lab, 9700 S Cass Ave, Argonne, IL 60439 USA.

In high resolution three-dimensional reciprocal space maps of tensile deformed copper, individual, almost dislocation-free subgrains are identified from high-intensity peaks and distinguished by their unique combination of orientation and elastic strain; dislocation walls manifest themselves as a smooth cloud of lower intensity. The elastic strains show only minor variations within each subgrain, but larger variations between different subgrains. In average, subgrains experience back strains, whereas dislocations walls are strained in forward direction. Based on these observations a revision of the classical composite model is formulated. Additionally, subgrain dynamics is followed in-situ during varying loading conditions by reciprocal space mapping: During uninterrupted tensile deformation, formation of subgrains can be observed concurrently with broadening of Bragg reflections shortly after onset of plastic deformation. The emergence of dislocation-free regions proofs that ordered dislocation structures develop during tensile deformation. With continued tensile deformation, the subgrain structure develops intermittently. When the traction is terminated, stress relaxation occurs and no changes in the number, size and orientation of the subgrains are observed. When changing the tensile direction after pre-deformation in tension, a systematic correlation between the degree of strain path change and the volume fraction of the subgrains is established. In case of perpendicular tensile axes, a reversal of the radial profile asymmetry is observed and explained. C1 [Pantleon, W.; Wejdemann, C.; Jakobsen, B.; Poulsen, H.

Within it, a neighborhood containing 20 complete grains was indexed in the annealed state and subsequently tracked at several applied stresses during in situ loading, both preceding and following the macroscopic yield stress. The stress states of each grain were observed to reorient significantly post yield despite the fact that their average remained close to the applied uniaxial stress. To aid in interpreting the experimental results, a virtual realization of the neighborhood was created using a finite element mesh. Each individual grain was represented by similar to 5000 hexahedral elements. Ensemble averaged resolved shear stresses were calculated over the neighborhood from both the experimental and simulated data. Despite the lack of intra-granular resolution in the experiment and with the aid of the simulated data the resolved shear stresses projected on several slip system families are shown to statistically capture the associated critical resolved shear stresses. This important result implies that the far-field 3DXRD method may be applied to the study of specific of slip system activity in embedded neighborhoods of grains subject to thermomechanical processing in situ.

New instrumentation makes it possible to resolve neighbouring volumes on the order of 0.01 cubic microns and to simultaneously measure local elastic distortions of the unit cell with tens of femtometers resolution and the presence of unpaired dislocations with sensitivity approaching single dislocations. These capabilities offer important opportunities to study the influence of plastic and elastic strain inhomogeneities on three-dimensional (3D) materials behaviour and evolution.

The nature of these reactions requires a combination of both high spatial resolution and excellent temporal resolution, in single-shot experiments. In the first technique, we use x-ray microdiffraction to track the sequence of phase evolution in self-propagating reactions in detail. We use Kirkpatrick-Baez mirrors to focus a high flux pink x-ray beam into a small (< 10 mu m) spot, and produce short (< 75 mu s) exposures using a fast x-ray shutter, recording the x-ray diffraction pattern in transmission through the specimen on a fiber-optic-coupled CCD camera. The second technique combines x-ray phase contrast imaging with x-ray diffraction, proving simultaneous real-space (imaging) and reciprocal-space (diffraction) information about the advancing reaction front. As a particular example, we describe recent experiments on Al-Zr multilayer foils, demonstrating the strengths of each technique and discussing details of the transformation from Al/Zr multilayers to various intermetallic phases.

The reconstruction is performed using an iterative algorithm, algebraic reconstruction technique (ART), to solve a linear system of equations obtained from data from the Boxscan technique. The Boxscan technique is a 3D X-ray diffraction type scanning technique, which in geometric tomography terms provides 2-dimensional X-rays of the object as data. In this paper, we report on the first experimental 3D grain shape reconstruction based on a beta-titanium sample. By comparing our results to high resolution phase contrast tomography, we find that the average error on the position of the grain boundary in this sample is 2.7 micrometers for a grain radius of 17 micrometers. This result is similar to other current methods. C1 [Lyckegaard, A.; Alpers, A.; Poulsen, H. F.; Lauridsen, E.

These data have been used to determine growth path envelopes describing the evolution of grain volume and face class, as well as computation of the affinities for contact between grains of different numbers of faces. The growth path of normalized grain volume was found to be qualitatively similar to that followed by grain faces, with the initially largest grains and maximum face class maintaining fairly constant values of those parameters. Those characteristics of the initially smaller grains monotonically decreased towards grain disappearance. It was found that the grains with fewest faces have a high affinity for contact with many-faced grains, grains with intermediate numbers of faces have no preferred contact with any other face class and grains with the highest numbers of faces have a strong preference for contact with the fewest -faced grains.

A partitioning method using an asymmetric measure of misfit is presented for automated separation of the contributions. The peak contribution is analyzed to give detailed information about the properties of individual subgrains and their evolution with tensile deformation. Additionally, a procedure used for determining the distance of a grain from the surface of the sample along the direction of the X-ray beam is outlined.

Partly this is because negative dechanneling lengths are relatively much shorter. Electrons are not particularly useful for investigating negative particle channeling effects because their material interactions are dominated by channeling radiation. Another important factor is that the current central challenge in channeling collimation is the proton-proton Large Hadron Collider (LHC) where both beams are positive. On the other hand in the future the collimation question might reemerge for electron-positron or muon colliders. Dechanneling lengths increase at higher energies so that part of the negative particle experimental challenge diminishes. In the article different approaches to determining negative dechanneling lengths are reviewed. The more complicated case for axial channeling is also discussed. Muon channeling as a tool to investigate dechanneling is also discussed. While it is now possible to study muon channeling it will probably not illuminate the study of negative dechanneling.

First measurements at the Tevatron in 2005 have shown that using a thin silicon crystal to deflect the 1-TeV proton beam halo onto a secondary collimator improves the system performance by reducing the machine impedance, beam losses in the collider detectors and irradiation of the superconducting magnets, all in agreement with simulations. Recent results, obtained with an improved goniometer and enhanced beam diagnostics, are reported here for dedicated beam studies and first full collider stores along with simulation results and plans for substantial enhancement of the T-980 experimental setup.

Linear energy relations for the elementary reaction steps are obtained from the OFT calculations and used to establish a one-dimensional descriptor for the catalytic activity. The descriptor employed here is the dissociative chemisorption energy of oxygen. It is found that the commonly employed RuO(2) catalyst is close to optimal, but that there could still be room for improvements. The analysis suggests that oxide surfaces which offer slightly weaker bonding of oxygen should exhibit a superior activity to that of RuO(2).

Explosives have rich absorption features in the molecular fingerprint region that spans 1500 to 500 wavenumbers and is easily probed by the wavelength range of quantum cascade lasers (QCL), which can be fabricated to emit from 3300 to 400 wavenumbers. Our laboratory-built ECQCL consists of a Fabry-Perot laser with anti-reflection coated front facet that is arranged in a Littman-Metcalf configuration. The ECQCL was operated quasi-CW with a 100 kHz repetition rate, 50% duty cycle drive signal and tuning range from 1102.95 to 983.8 wavenumbers. The active hyperspectral imaging technique forms an image hypercube by recording one image for each tuning step of the ECQCL. For the experiments reported here, each wavelength band was 2 wavenumbers wide and 60 bands of image data were acquired in 2 seconds. The resulting hyperspectral image contains the full absorption spectrum produced by the illumination laser at each pixel in the image which can then be used to identify the explosive type and relative quantity using the rich library of spectral identification approaches developed initially in the remote sensing community. These techniques include spectral feature fitting, matched filtering, and mixture tuned matched filtering. Mixtures of materials can be evaluated using linear spectral unmixing approaches and matched filtering or mixture tuned matched filtering. We provide examples of these methods using ENVI, a commercial spectral image processing software package. C1 [Bernacki, Bruce E.; Phillips, Mark C.] Pacific NW Natl Lab, Richland, WA 99352 USA.

Transportable systems that can detect significant quantities of fissile material that might be present in vehicular traffic are of particular interest, especially if they can be rapidly deployed to different locations. To serve this application, we have constructed a rapid-deployment portal monitor that uses visible-light and gamma-ray imaging to allow simultaneous monitoring of multiple lanes of traffic from the side of a roadway. The system operation uses machine vision methods on the visible-light images to detect vehicles as they enter and exit the field of view and to measure their position in each frame. The visible-light and gamma-ray cameras are synchronized which allows the gamma-ray imager to harvest gamma-ray data specific to each vehicle, integrating its radiation signature for the entire time that it is in the field of view. Thus our system creates vehicle-specific radiation signatures and avoids source confusion problems that plague non-imaging approaches to the same problem. Our current prototype instrument was designed for measurement of upto five lanes of freeway traffic with a pair of instruments, one on either side of the roadway. Stereoscopic cameras are used with a third "alignment" camera for motion compensation and are mounted on a 50' deployable mast. In this paper we discuss the design considerations for the machine-vision system, the algorithms used for vehicle detection and position estimates, and the overall architecture of the system. We also discuss system calibration for rapid deployment. We conclude with notes on preliminary performance and deployment.

A significant technical challenge has been recognized as the development of a viable method to efficiently trap hydrogen, methane and carbon dioxide gas molecules in a confined space for various applications. This issue can be addressed by employing highly porous materials as storage media, and porous metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) which have exceptionally high surface areas as well as chemically-tunable structures are playing an unusual role in this respect. In this feature article we provide an overview of the current status of clean energy applications of porous MOFs, including hydrogen storage, methane storage and carbon dioxide capture.

This unique class of nanomaterials can not only retain beneficial features of both the inorganic and organic components, but also provides the ability to systematically tune the properties of the hybrid material through the combination of functional components. This feature article will summarize recent advances in the design and synthesis of hybrid nanomaterials and their applications in biological and biomedical areas. The hybrid nanomaterials to be discussed fall into two main categories, silica based materials and nanoscale metal-organic frameworks. Their applications as imaging contrast agents and nanotherapeutics will be highlighted. C1 [Taylor-Pashow, Kathryn M.

In particular, the novel properties of 1D nanostructures of metals and metal oxides (binary and ternary) render them as prime candidates for a wide range of applications including the fabrication of nanoscale devices associated with solar cells, energy storage, fuel cells, molecular computing and information storage, medical imaging, diagnosis and detection, drug delivery, sensors and catalysis. Thus, it has been simultaneously necessary and critical to create synthetic protocols for the production of these materials which not only are reliable and reproducible, but also can generate compositionally pure, monodisperse, highly crystalline products of a desired 1D morphology. Solution-based methodologies have demonstrated significant advantages over other approaches, as they are facile, simple, flexible, 'green' by nature, and can be applied to a wide range of nanomaterials with diverse chemical compositions. Moreover, these methods can often be scaled so as to produce large quantities of products which are advantageous from an applications' standpoint. Herein, we present synthetic advances associated with solution-based approaches. Specifically solvothermal/hydrothermal, molten salt, electrospinning, template-directed, solution/one-pot, and sol-gel methodologies are discussed with the primary goal of achieving the reproducible synthesis of 1D motifs of metals, binary metal oxides, and ternary metal oxide systems.

It is a highly active electrocatalyst for the oxidation of hydrogen in the presence of base. The turnover rate of 50 s(-1) under 1.0 atm H-2 at a potential of -0.77 V vs. the ferrocene couple is 5 times faster than the rate reported heretofore for any other synthetic molecular H-2 oxidation catalyst.

Immunoblot analysis using monoclonal anti-HNE antibodies showed several proteins as targets of HNE adduction. Pretreatment of THP-1 cells with ascorbic acid resulted in reduced levels of HNE-protein adducts. Biotinylation of Michael-type HNE adducts using all aldehyde-reactive hydroxylamine-functionalized probe (aldchyde-reactive probe, ARP) and Subsequent enrichment facilitated the identification and site-specific assignment of the modifications by LC-MS/MS analysis. Sixteen proteins were unequivocally identified as targets of HNE adduction, and eighteen sites of HNE modification at Cys and His residues were assigned. FINE exposure of THP-1 cells resulted in the modification of proteins involved in cytoskeleton organization and regulation, proteins associated with stress responses, and enzymes of the glycolytic and other metabolic pathways. ThiS Study yielded the first evidence of site-specific adduction of HNE to Cys-295 in tubulin alpha-1B chain, Cys-351 and Cvs-499 in alpha-actinin-4, Cys-328 in vimentin, Cys-369 in D-3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase, and His-246 in aldolase A.

Spectral features are assigned with the help of electronic structure calculations and Franck-Condon simulations. Well-resolved transitions to the linear (chi) over tilde (2)Pi and (a) over tilde (4)Sigma(-) neutral states are observed for species with an odd number of carbon atoms. For C6H- and C8H-, transitions to the (X) over tilde (2)Pi neutral ground state and the low lying (A) over cap (2)Sigma(+) excited state are observed. Precise electron affinities, term energies, fine structure splittings, and gas-phase vibrational frequencies are determined. The C5H-, C7H- and C9H- SEVI spectra are consistent with the anions having (X) over tilde (3)Sigma(-) linear triplet ground states.

In PDT, the sensor is energized through a series of positive and negative pulses between the electrodes with discharge phases in between. The sensor response is extracted from the discharge characteristics, which depends on the type of gas and its concentration. PDT variables include the pulse amplitude, pulse duration, and pause duration. In this study, a statistical investigation is carried out to derive an empirical model to correlate the sensor response to the PDT variables. Two sensor configurations based on Indium Tin Oxide (ITO) and Au were used as model systems. The PDT variables were found to be statistically significant parameters affecting the senor response. A linear regression model was derived for both the sensor configurations. Absence of any interaction effects among PDT variables was observed. It is emphasized that this study has to be seen as an initial approach to establish an empirical relationship between PDT variables and the sensor response and requires electrochemical investigations to better understand the working principle of this technique.

The first part pertains to deliberate assembly of new crystalline materials using anionic components, by taking advantage of the strong and directional interactions of anions in the solid state. Along this line, the various structural roles of anions in crystals are examined. The second question is related to selective separation of anions by crystallization, by exploiting chemical recognition phenomena in the well-defined and highly structured environment inside crystals.

Topics include the development of criteria needed for the design, how the input structures for each design were obtained, and subsequent use of molecular modeling to more accurately rank the initial list of candidates produced by the builder. The effectiveness of the design approach is illustrated in several cases where host molecules identified on the computer were subsequently synthesized and shown to function as efficient anion hosts.

Compared with RS, RR can provide much higher sensitivity and selectivity in detecting catalytically-significant surface metal oxides. RR can potentially give useful information on the nature of excited states relevant to photocatalysis and on the anharmonic potential of the ground state. In this critical review a detailed discussion is presented on several types of RR experimental systems, three distinct sources of so-called Raman (fluorescence) background, detection limits for RR compared to other techniques (EXAFS, PM-IRAS, SFG), and three well-known methods to assign UV-vis absorption bands and a band-specific unified method that is derived mainly from RR results. In addition, the virtues and challenges of surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS) are discussed for detecting molecular adsorbates at catalytically relevant interfaces. Tip-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (TERS), which is a combination of SERS and near-field scanning probe microscopy and has the capability of probing molecular adsorbates at specific catalytic sites with an enormous surface sensitivity and nanometre spatial resolution, is also reviewed (300 references).

Herein we use high-level quantum chemical calculations and molecular dynamics simulations to evaluate the base pairing and stacking interactions of seven selected base pairs, which are common in that they are stabilized by two N-H center dot center dot center dot O hydrogen bonds separated by one N-H center dot center dot center dot N hydrogen bond. We show that neither the base pairing nor the base stacking interaction energies correlate with the reported pK(a) data of the bases and the melting points of the duplexes. This suggests that the experimentally observed correlation between the melting point data of the duplexes and the pKa values of the constituent bases is not rooted in the intrinsic base pairing and stacking properties. The physical chemistry origin of the observed experimental correlation thus remains unexplained and requires further investigations. In addition, since out-calculations are carried out with extrapolation to the complete basis set of atomic orbitals and with inclusion of higher electron correlation effects, they provide reference data for stacking and base pairing energies of non-natural bases.

Single-crystal X-ray structural analysis reveals a phase width (F (4) over bar 3m, a = 18.0700(3)-18.1600(2) angstrom, Pearson symbols cF400-cF416), which is associated with structural disorder based on both vacancies as well as mixed site occupancies. These structures are constructed of four independent 26-atom gamma-clusters per primitive unit cells and centered at the four special positions A (0, 0, 0), B (1/4, 1/4. 1/4), C (1/2, 1/2, 1/2) and D (3/4, 3/4, 3/4). Two of these, centered at B and C. are completely ordered Pd(4)Zn(22) clusters, whereas the other two, centered at A and D, contain all structural disorder in the system. According to our single-crystal X-ray results, Al substitutions are restricted to the A- and D-centered clusters. Moreover, the outer tetrahedron (OT) site of the 26-atom cluster at D is completely vacant at the Al-rich boundary of these phases. Electronic structure calculations, using the tight-binding linear muffin-tin orbital atomic-spheres approximation (TB-LMTO-ASA) method, on models of these new. ternary gamma'-brass phases indicate that the observed chemical compositions and atomic distributions lead to the presence of a pseudogap at the Fermi level in the electronic density of states curves, which is consistent with the Hume-Rothery interpretation of gamma-brasses. in general.

Significant changes in unit-cell parameters were observed for all the iron-containing complexes, whereas 2 showed no response to UV illumination. Photoexcited crystal structures have been determined for 1, 3, and 4 based on refinements of two-conformer models, and excited-state occupancies of 78.6(1), 84(6), and 86.6(7)% were reached, respectively. Significant bond-length changes were observed for the Fe ligand bonds (up to 0.19 angstrom), the cyano bonds (up to 0.09 angstrom), and the lanthanide ligand bonds (up to 0.10 angstrom). Ab initio theoretical calculations were carried out for the experimental ground-state geometry of 1 to understand the electronic structure changes upon UV illumination. The calculations suggest that UV illumination gives a charge transfer from the cyano groups on the iron atom to the lanthanide ion moiety, {Nd(dmf)(4)-(H2O)(3)}, with a distance of approximately 6 A from the iron atom. The charge transfer is accompanied by a reorganization of the spin state on the (Fe(CN)(6)} complex, and a change in geometry that produces a metastable charge-transfer state with an increased number of unpaired electrons, thus accounting for the observed photomagnetic effect.

Minor variations, such as lengthening the diyne tether, cause reversion to the standard mechanism. The trienes, including synthetically potent borylated derivatives, are generated with excellent levels of chemo-, regio-, and diastereoselectivity, and are obtained directly by decomplexation of the crude mixtures during chromatography. The cyclohexadienes are isolated as the corresponding dehydroalkoxylated arenes. In one example, even ethene functions as a linear cotrimerization partner. The alkoxytrienes are thermally labile with respect to 6 pi-electrocyclization- elimination to give the same arenes that are the products of cycloaddition. The latter, regardless of the mechanism of their formation, can be viewed as the result of a formal [2+2+2] cyclization of the starting alkynes with acetylene. One-pot conditions for the exclusive formation of arenes are developed. DFT computations indicate that cyclohexadiene and triene formation share a common intermediate, a cobaltacycloheptadiene, from which reductive elimination and 3-hydride elimination compete.

These complexes were adsorbed from the gas phase onto anatase powder that had been treated in flowing O-2 or under vacuum to vary the density of surface OH sites. Infrared (IR) spectra demonstrate the variation in the number of sites, including Ti+3-OH and Ti+4-OH. IR and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) spectra show that chemisorption of the rhenium complexes led to their decarbonylation, with formation of surface-bound rhenium tricarbonyls, when [HRe(CO)(5)] was adsorbed, or rhenium tetracarbonyls, when [CH3Re(CO)(5)] was adsorbed. These reactions were accompanied by the formation of water and surface carbonates and removal of terminal hydroxyl groups associated with Ti+3 and Ti+4 ions on the anatase. Data characterizing the samples after adsorption of [HRe(CO)(5)] or [CH3Re(CO)(5)] determined a ranking of the reactivity of the surface OH sites, with the Ti+3-OH groups being the more reactive towards the rhenium complexes but the less likely to be dehydroxylated. The two rhenium pentacarbonyl probes provided complementary information, suggesting that the carbonate species originate from carbonyl ligands initially bonded to the rhenium and from hydroxyl groups of the titania surface, with the reaction leading to the formation of water and bridging hydroxyl groups on the titania. The results illustrate the value of using a family of organometallic complexes as probes of oxide surface sites. C1 [Lobo-Lapidus, Rodrigo J.; Gates, Bruce C.] Univ Calif Davis, Davis, CA 95616 USA.

Here we report a novel approach for the highly controlled preparation of surface organometallic catalysts by gas-phase ligand stripping combined with reactive landing of mass-selected ions onto self-assembled monolayer surfaces. Collision-induced dissociation is used to generate highly reactive undercoordinated metal complexes in the gas-phase for subsequent surface immobilization. Complexes with an open coordination sell around the metal center are demonstrated to show enhanced activity towards reactive landing in comparison to fully ligated species. In situ TOF-SIMS analysis indicates that the immobilized complexes exhibit behavior consistent with catalytic activity when exposed to gaseous reagents.

Chlorophenol sorption behavior was evaluated as a function of reaction time (0-96 h) and input concentration at a fixed ionic strength (0.1 mol L(-1) KCl) at 25, 35, and 45 degrees C. Sorption results for the various reaction temperatures were used in calculating thermodynamic parameters. Chlorophenol sorption increased with temperature, suggesting an endothermic process. The Elovich equation was used to describe the kinetic data. Data from the isotherm experiments were described by the Triple-Layer Model in which monodentate outer- and inner-sphere complexes were formed between deprotonated organic molecules and active sites on the variable-charge soil. The calculated thermodynamic parameters suggest that chlorophenol sorption is a spontaneous (Delta G < 0), endothermic (Delta H > 0) and entropy-driven reaction (Delta S > 0). (C) 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

The magnetic nanoparticle sorbents were prepared from an easy-to-synthesize iron oxide precursor, followed by a simple, one-step ligand exchange reaction to introduce an affinity ligand to the nanoparticle surface that is specific to a heavy metal or class of heavy metal contaminants. The engineered magnetic nanoparticle sorbents have inherently high active surface areas, allowing for increased binding capacities. To demonstrate the performance of the nanoparticle sorbents, river water was spiked with specific metals and exposed to low concentrations of the functionalized nanoparticles. In almost all cases, the nanoparticles were found to be superior to commercially available sorbent materials as well as the unfunctionalized iron oxide nanoparticles.

Adsorption-desorption experiments were conducted at initial adsorption temperatures ranging from 29 degrees C to 50 degrees C with temperature-programmed regeneration under an inert purge stream. In addition to the capture capacity of each amine, the efficiencies at which the amidines interact with CO2 were determined. Capture capacities were obtained for 1,5-diazo-bicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) and 1,8-diazobicyclo[5.4.0]-undec-7-ene (DBU) supported on activated carbon at a loading of approximately 2.7 mol amidine per kg of sorbent. Moisture was found to be essential for CO2 capture on the amidines, but parasitic moisture sorption on the activated carbon ultimately limited the capture capacities. DBN was shown to have a higher capture capacity of 0.8 mol CO2 per kg of sorbent and an efficiency of 0.30 mol CO2 per mol of amidine at an adsorption temperature of 29 degrees C compared to DBU. The results of these experiments were then used in conjunction with a single-site adsorption model to derive the Gibbs free energy for the capture reaction, which can provide information about the suitability of the sorbent under different operating conditions.

We have used multivariate techniques to quantify some of these changes; the method employed was the Multivariate Spatio-Temporal Clustering (MSTC) algorithm. We used the MSTC to quantitatively define ecoregions for the People's Republic of China for historical and projected future climates. Using the Koppen-Trewartha classification system we were able to quantify some of the temperature and precipitation relationships of the ecoregions. We then tested the hypothesis that impacts to environments will be lower for ecoregions that retain their approximate geographic locations. Our results showed that climate in 2050, as projected from anthropogenic forcings using the Hadley Centre HadCM3 general circulation model, were sufficient to create novel environmental conditions even where ecoregions remained spatially stable; cluster number was found to be of paramount importance in detecting novelty. Continental-scale analyses are generally able to locate potentially static ecoregions but they may be insufficient to define the position of those reserves at a grid cell-by-grid cell basis.

The sole input of the calculations is the nucleon-nucleon interaction. Such a microscopic time-dependent and quantum mechanical formalism has already been used, based on the Gaussian Overlap Approximation of the Generator Coordinate Method with the adiabatic approximation, to analyze the collective dynamics of low-energy fission in U-238 [1]. However, at higher energies, a few MeV above the barrier, the adiabatic approximation doesn't seem valid anymore. Indeed, manifestations of proton pair breaking have been observed in U-235 and U-239 for an excitation energy of 2.3 MeV above the barrier [2-4] Taking the intrinsic excitations into account during the fission process will enable us to determine the coupling between collective and intrinsic degrees of freedom, in particular from saddle to scission. Guidelines of the new formalism under development are presented and some preliminary results on overlaps between non excited and excited states are discussed.

In particular, an exact expanded R-matrix Monte Carlo calculation of the intermediate structure, deeply mixed with the fluctuations of the class-I and II decay amplitudes, is shown.

Random matrix theory (RMT) predicts for the Gaussian orthogonal ensemble (GOE) that these widths should follow a)(2 distribution having one degree of freedom (nu = 1) - the Porter Thomas (PT) distribution. Using the maximum-likelihood (ML) technique, I have determined that the Gamma(0)(n) values in the NDE are best described by a chi(2) distribution having nu = 0.801 +/- 0.052, which is 3.8 standard deviations smaller than predicted by RMT. I show that this striking disagreement is most likely due to the inclusion of significant p-wave contamination to the supposedly pure s-wave NDE. Furthermore, when an energy-dependent threshold is used to remove the p-wave contamination, ML analysis yields nu = 1.217 +/- 0.092 for the remaining data, still in poor agreement with the RMT prediction for the GOE. These results cast very serious doubt on claims that the NDE represents a striking confirmation of RMT. C1 Oak Ridge Natl Lab, Div Phys, Oak Ridge, TN 37831 USA.

Both isotopes are of current interest for the nucleosynthesis s-process in astrophysics and for applications as in reactor physics or in nuclear medicine. Three targets were used to perform these measurements. One was Lu-nat foil and the other two were isotope-enriched targets of Lu-175 and Lu-176. The cross sections are obtained for now through a precise neutron flux determination and a normalization at the thermal neutron cross section value. A comparison with the recent experimental data and the evaluated data of ENDF/B-VII.0 will be presented. In addition, resonances parameters and spin assignments for some resonances will be featured.

The P-29(p,gamma)S-30 reaction plays an important role in understanding the Si isotopic abundances in such grains, which in turn provide us with information on the nature of the probable white dwarf progenitor's core, as well as the peak temperatures achieved during nova outbursts, and thus the nova nucleosynthetic path. The P-29(p,gamma)S-30 reaction rate at nova temperatures is determined by two low-lying 3(+) and 2(+) resonances above the proton threshold at 4399 keV in S-30. Despite several experimental studies in the past, however, only one of these two states has only been observed very recently. We have studied the S-30 nuclear structure via the S-32(p,t)S-30 reaction at 5 laboratory angles between 9 degrees to 62 degrees. We have observed 14 states, eleven of which are above the proton threshold, including two levels at 4692.7 +/- 4.5 keV and 4813.8 +/- 3.4 keV that are candidates for the 3(+) and the previously "missing" 2(+) state, respectively.

Nuclear reaction cross sections must be known as precisely as possible so that core reaction rates can be accurately calculated. Although cross section measurements in this region have been widely performed, for certain nuclei, particularly those with short half lives, direct measurements are either very difficult or impossible and thus reactor simulations must rely on theoretical calculations or extrapolations from neighbouring nuclei. The greatest uncertainty in theoretical cross section calculations comes from the lack of knowledge of level densities, for which predicted values can often be incorrect by a factor of two or more. Therefore there is a strong case for a systematic experimental study of level densities in the actinide region for the purpose of a) providing a stringent test of theoretical cross section calculations for nuclei where experimental cross section data are available and b) for providing better estimations of cross sections for nuclei in which no cross section data are available.

This article presents a software tool, MINOE, to assist policymakers, scientists, and others involved in ecosystem-based management initiatives to navigate through management documents as they relate to a user-defined ecosystem. The tool uses a conceptually modeled ecosystem, defined by the user, and text analysis of a set of management-related documents to determine which ecosystem linkages are potentially acknowledged in the documents. For illustration, the set of documents included with MINOE currently (and used to demonstrate the software in this article) are laws and regulations from four geopolitical jurisdictions for the year 2006; however, users may also import other documents for a more tailored application. Features include an interactive matrix containing results about the set of management documents within the user's scope and scale of interest. In addition, MINOE includes metrics and visualization tools to synthesize information derived from the documents. The article presents the software tool, describes potential uses for the tool, and ends with a discussion of future work to expand the program.

Psychologists have argued that this is a result of analogical reasoning processes. Neuroimaging studies point to PFC as a critical component of a larger network; however, it remains unclear how the brain accomplishes analogical reasoning. This paper presents a theory of prefrontal cortical function that attempts to explain the neural mechanisms of analogical processing in the context of the broader theoretical and empirical work on PFC. Specifically, the current paper proposes that neurons in PFC are particularly sensitive to relationship information, and that they develop response preferences for relationship information that increases in abstractness and complexity along the posterior-anterior axis. Further, this theory posits that representation formation in PFC is driven by frontostriatal circuits and that the persistence of these representations is determined by environmental consequences such that the longer the representation predicts reward or punishment, the longer the representation lasts. Finally, it is suggested that because analogy has been proposed as a core cognitive process, underlying many other interesting cognitive phenomena such as learning, creativity, and decision-making, it could serve as a useful tool for studying PFC function in general.

In so doing, I chose to focus on a particular function, analogy, that seems to have been largely ignored in the theoretical treatments of PFC, but that does underlie many other cognitive functions (Hofstadter, 2001; Holyoak & Thagard, 1997). At its core, this paper was intended to use analogy as a foundation for exploring one possibility for prefrontal function in general, although it is easy to see how the analogy-specific interpretation arises (as in the comment by Ibanez). In an attempt to address this more foundational question, this response will step away from analogy as a focus, and will address first the various comments from the perspective of the initial motivation for developing this theory, and then specific issues raised by the commentators.

This paper presents chemical and morphological characterization of the products generated in ethylene and benzene inverse diffusion flames (IDF) using different analytical techniques. The trend in the data indicates that the soot precursor material and soot particles generated in the benzene IDF have a higher degree of complexity than the samples obtained in the ethylene IDF, which is reflected by an increase in the aromaticity of the chloroform extracts observed by (1)H NMR and FT-IR, and shape and size of soot particles obtained by TEM and HR-TEM. It is important to highlight that the soot precursor material obtained at the lower positions in the ethylene IDF has a significant contribution of aliphatic groups, which play an important role in the particle inception and mass growth processes during the early stages of soot formation. However, these groups progressively disappear in the samples taken at higher positions in the flame, due to thermal decomposition processes. (C) 2009 The Combustion Institute.

This approach is based on a spatially evolving form of the one-dimensional turbulence (ODT) model that resolves the full range of scales, in a single spatial dimension, from the scale of the plume evolution to that of the soot layers. The model is compared with limited experimental data available. The evolved flow field of a meter-scale flame is then analyzed both in terms of conventional spatial averages and conditional averages. The conditional moments of the terms in the soot and enthalpy evolution equations are analyzed to elucidate the balance between the large-scale evolution (advective terms), the source terms, and the turbulent mixing (dissipative terms). The results show the significant influence of the mixture evolution on the transport of soot relative to the flame (in mixture-fraction space).

TI Assessment of RANS-Based Turbulent Combustion Models for Prediction of Emissions from Lean Premixed Combustion of Methane SO COMBUSTION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY LA English DT Article DE Emissions; Lean premixed combustion; PDF combustion model; RANS combustion models; Reduced mechanisms ID SWIRL-STABILIZED COMBUSTOR; REACTIVE FLOWS; MIXING MODELS; PDF; PERFORMANCE; FLAMES; CHEMISTRY AB Reynolds-Averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) simulations of Lean Premixed Combustion (LPC) of methane-air in a bluff-body stabilized combustor were performed with several widely used turbulent combustion methodologies in order to assess their prediction capabilities. The methods employed are the Eddy Dissipation Concept (EDC), the Composition Probability Density Function (CPDF) and the Joint Velocity-Frequency-Composition PDF (VFCPDF) models. Where needed, two different models were employed for turbulent transport closure, namely the Renormalization Group (RNG) k-epsilon and Reynolds Stress Transport (RSM) models. The combustion chemistry was represented by two separate augmented reduced mechanisms (ARM9 and ARM19) in order to assess the influence of chemical mechanisms on calculations. Mean temperature and major species predictions of all of the employed methodologies compared well with the experimental data. Intermediate and emission species predictions were sensitive to the resolution of turbulence viscosity, which changes the effective diffusivity of the species. NO emissions predictions were in error by an average +/- 5ppm with the EDC models and the CPDF model, with the VFCPDF model showing a somewhat better prediction of NOx. Calculations for some intermediate species (especially H2) deviated qualitatively from the experimental data, which highlights some of the limitations of these methodologies commonly used in detailed prediction of emissions for various fuel blends.

TI Dual-Pump CARS Measurements of Temperature and Oxygen in a Turbulent Methanol-Fueled Pool Fire SO COMBUSTION SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY LA English DT Article DE CARS; Fire research; Laser diagnostics ID RAMAN-SCATTERING MEASUREMENTS; THERMOMETRY; NITROGEN; FLAMES; LASER AB We present broadband, dual-pump coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) measurements of N2 and O2 in 2m diameter methanol pool fires. The design of the fiber-optically coupled CARS instrument for fire measurements is described. Single-shot temperatures and O2/N2 ratios were obtained simultaneously from a single measurement point at the center of the fire plume, and the measured temperature-oxygen statistics are compared to results of a time-domain-filtered Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes simulation. The measured and simulated mean fire temperatures agree to within 2-4%, with larger turbulent fluctuations observed in the measured temperatures. The behavior of the mean temperature conditioned on the O2/N2 ratio is similar for both simulation and experiment, but with simulated temperatures that are up to 10% lower than measured values for O2/N2 below 0.18. The uncertainty in the CARS measurements is described. A single-shot detection limit of O2/N2=0.06 was determined from the observed signal to noise ratio in the measured O2 Q-branch spectra. Comparison of the CARS and thermocouple-measured temperatures in tube-furnace-heated air allowed characterization of the CARS instrument accuracy and precision and it was determined that between 500-1400K the instrument accuracy is 1% and the measurements are reproducible to within 5-7%.

Existing combustion models for diesel engines usually lack universality across combustion regimes. In this study, a mixed-mode combustion model was developed to cover the major regimes pertaining to diesel engine combustion. The model uses kinetically controlled, quasi-steady homogeneous, quasi-steady flamelet, and partially premixed combustion modes. The combustion regime is identified locally by two combustion indices based on the local chemical and mixing conditions. The combustion model takes advantage of mixing details provided by large-eddy simulation. The model was tested over a wide range of engine conditions including conventional diesel-type and low-temperature combustion operating conditions. The model results compared well with experimental data and exhibited strength in both universality and computational efficiency.

A model for aluminum particles that accounts for material compressibility from shock heating and expansion is presented. The Lagrangian description of the particles is incorporated into an Eulerian description of the gas phase resulting in a fully compressible, two-way coupled simulation. Simulations are conducted of an isolated explosive located near a corner to promote ignition of the particles from shock focusing. Parametric studies are conducted to determine the effects of equivalence ratio, particle size, and charge placement, on the post-detonation pressure and impulse. Results highlight the importance of the timing and position of the shock focusing event relative to the local mixture equivalence ratio that results in an optimal equivalence ratio which maximizes impulse for the geometry considered.

The numerical approach, a variant of Godunov's method designed to accommodate nonconservative terms in the hyperbolic model, extends previous work of the authors to two-dimensional configurations. The focus is on the behavior of an established detonation as it rounds a 90 degrees corner and undergoes diffraction. The dependence of the post-diffraction conduct on the reaction rate is explored by varying the reaction-rate prefactor and the ignition threshold. The aim is to determine whether the model, as postulated, can capture dead zones, which are pockets of unreacted or partially reacted explosive observed in the vicinity of the corner in diffraction experiments. Results of this study are compared with those of a similar investigation on the one-phase ignition-and-growth model. C1 [Schwendeman, D. W.; Kapila, A.

Equivalence ratio stratification is a key technology for advanced low emission combustors. Laminar counterflow simulations of lean methane-air combustion have been presented which show the effect of strain variations on flames stabilized in an equivalence ratio gradient, and the response of flames propagating into a mixture with a time-varying equivalence ratio. 'Back supported' lean flames, whose products are closer to stoichiometry than their reactants, display increased propagation velocities and reduced thickness compared with flames where the reactants are richer than the products. The radical concentrations in the vicinity of the flame are modified by the effect of an equivalence ratio gradient on the temperature profile and thermal dissociation. Analysis of steady flames stabilized in an equivalence ratio gradient demonstrates that the radical flux through the flame, and the modified radical concentrations in the reaction zone, contribute to the modified propagation speed and thickness of stratified flames. The modified concentrations of radical species in stratified flames mean that, in general, the reaction rate is not accurately parametrized by progress variable and equivalence ratio alone. A definition of stratified flame propagation based upon the displacement speed of a mixture fraction dependent progress variable was seen to be suitable for stratified combustion. The response times of the reaction, diffusion, and cross-dissipation components which contribute to this displacement speed have been used to explain flame response to stratification and unsteady fluid dynamic strain.

The LLNS equations incorporate thermal fluctuations into macroscopic hydrodynamics by the addition of white-noise fluxes whose magnitudes are set by a fluctuation-dissipation relation. Originally derived for equilibrium fluctuations, the LLNS equations have also been shown to be accurate for nonequilibrium systems. Previous studies of numerical methods for the LLNS equations focused primarily on measuring variances and correlations computed at equilibrium and for selected nonequilibrium flows. In this paper, we introduce a more systematic approach based on studying discrete equilibrium structure factors for a broad class of explicit linear finite-volume schemes. This new approach provides a better characterization of the accuracy of a spatiotemporal discretization as a function of wavenumber and frequency, allowing us to distinguish between behavior at long wavelengths, where accuracy is a prime concern, and short wavelengths, where stability concerns are of greater importance. We use this analysis to develop a specialized third-order Runge-Kutta scheme that minimizes the temporal integration error in the discrete structure factor at long wavelengths for the one-dimensional linearized LLNS equations. Together with a novel method for discretizing the stochastic stress tensor in dimension larger than one, our improved temporal integrator yields a scheme for the three-dimensional equations that satisfies a discrete fluctuation-dissipation balance for small time steps and is also sufficiently accurate even for time steps close to the stability limit.

Particularly, there are currently no adequate predictive methods that allow the creation of knowledge-based structures tailored for specific electrical response. We have developed a method for predicting the electric and dielectric properties of nanofiber-reinforced polymer matrices based on the application of the graph theory and circuit laws. We consider the individual properties of the polymeric matrix and the complex nanofiber network (including fiber orientation, concentration, and size), under an applied external electric field, and from the analysis we obtain information such as perlocative pathways, breakdown voltage, and impedance of the overall system. Simulations for two-phase systems consisting of a dielectric matrix and randomly oriented nanofibers have shown that the concentration and the length of the fibers affect the properties. Increased concentrations or longer fibers both result in networks for which it is easier to establish conducting paths through breakdown mechanisms.

The development of (semi-)automated computer-assisted prediction methods is needed to find TFBS over an entire genome, which is a first step in reconstructing mechanisms that control gene activity. Bioinformatics journals continue to publish diverse methods for predicting TFBS on a monthly basis. To help practitioners in deciding which method to use to predict for a particular TFBS, WC provide a platform to assess the quality and applicability of the available methods. Assessment tools allow researchers to determine how methods can be expected to perform on specific organisms or on specific transcription factor families. This chapter introduces the THIS detection problem and reviews current strategies for evaluating algorithm effectiveness. In this chapter, a novel and robust assessment tool, the Motif Tool Assessment Platform (MTAP), is introduced and discussed.

In Chapters 12 and 14 we demonstrate the application of either simple (i.e., axisymmetric truncated ellipsoid) or complex (i.e., fully 3-D) left ventricular (LV) geometric models or finite element (FE) meshes. This chapter is primarily concerned with an instructive review of the methodology we have used to create both types of FE meshes, which relies on the "parametric" meshing software TrueGrid (R). Since TrueGrid is rather expensive. Section 1.6 describes the use of free software executables available from the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory. The second basic biomechanics modeling step (determine mechanical properties) is addressed in the next three chapters. The third and fourth basic biomechanics modeling steps (governing equations and boundary conditions) are discussed briefly at the end of this chapter.

There is a strong geometric component to atherosclerosis in coronary heart disease since lesions are preferentially located at bifurcation points and regions of high curvature. The influence of these local structures oil recirculation and deleterious shear stresses and their role in plaque development is widely accepted. Over tinge, researchers have turned to MR. CT, or biplane images of vascular trees to faithfully capture these features in the flow simulations. Historically, this has taken the form of labor-intensive manual reconstructions from morphometric measurements based oil the centerline, whereby small idealized subsets of vascular trees are developed into computational grids. With improved imaging, image processing, and geometric reconstruction algorithms, researchers have begun to develop geometrically accurate computational models directly froth the medical images. This chapter provides all overview of contemporary methods for image processing, centerline detection, boundary condition definition, and grid generation of both clinical and research images of cardiovascular structures.

Metals and radionuclides may exist in the solute phase or may be bound to soil particles and interstitial portions of the geologic matrix. Accurate tools to reliably predict the migration and transformation of these metals and radionuclides in the subsurface environment enhance the ability of environmental scientists, engineers, and decision makers to analyze their impact and to evaluate the efficacy of alternative remediation techniques prior to incurring expense in the field. A mechanistic-based numerical model could provide such a tool. This paper communicates the development and verification of a mechanistically coupled fluid-flow thermal-reactive biogeochemical-transport model where both fast and slow reactions occur in porous and fractured media. Theoretical bases, numerical implementations, and numerical experiments using the model are described. A definition of the "rates" of fast/equilibrium reactions is presented to come up with a consistent set of governing equations. Two example problems are presented. The first one is a reactive transport problem which elucidates the non-isothermal effects on heterogeneous reactions. It also demonstrates that the rates of fast/equilibrium reactions are not necessarily greater than that of slow/kinetic reactions in the context of reactive transport. The second example focuses on a complicated but realistic advective-dispersive-reactive transport problem. This example exemplifies the need for innovative numerical algorithms to solve problems involving stiff geochemical reactions. It also demonstrates that rates of all fast/equilibrium reactions are finite and definite. Furthermore, it is noted that a species-versus-time curve cannot be used to characterize the rate of homogeneous fast/equilibrium reaction in a reactive transport system even if one and only one such reaction is responsible for the production of this species.

The actual anomalous changes need to be distinguished from the incidental differences that occur throughout the imagery, and one of the most common and confounding of these incidental differences is due to the misregistration of the images, due to limitations of the registration pre-processing applied to the image pair. We propose a general method to compensate for residual misregistration in any ACD algorithm which constructs an estimate of the degree of "anomalousness" for every pixel in the image pair. The method computes a modified misregistration-insensitive anomalousness by making local re-registration adjustments to minimize the local anomalousness. In this paper we describe a symmetrized version of our initial algorithm, and find significant performance improvements in the anomalous change detection ROC curves for a number of real and synthetic data sets.

TI Hessian-Free Metric-Based Mesh Adaptation via Geometry of Interpolation Error SO COMPUTATIONAL MATHEMATICS AND MATHEMATICAL PHYSICS LA English DT Article DE optimal mesh; interpolation error; metric based adaptation ID GENERATION AB The article presents analysis of a new methodology for generating meshes minimizing L(p)-norms of the interpolation error or its gradient, p > 0. The key element of the methodology is the construction of a metric from node-based and edge-based values of a given function. For a mesh with N(h) triangles, we demonstrate numerically that L(infinity)-norm of the interpolation error is proportional to N(h)(-1) and L(infinity)-norm of the gradient of the interpolation error is proportional to N(h)(-1). The methodology can be applied to adaptive solution of PDEs provided that edge-based a posteriori error estimates are available.

The chemical composition of this polymer is simple, but understanding the conformation and packing of cellulose molecules is challenging. This chapter describes the structure of cellulose from the perspective of molecular mechanics simulations, including conformational analysis of cellobiose and simulations of hydrated cellulose I beta with CSFF and GLYCAM06, two sets of force field parameters developed specifically for carbohydrates. Many important features observed in these simulations are sensitive to differences in force field parameters, giving rise to dramatically different structures. The structures and properties of non-naturally occurring cellulose allomorphs (II, HI, and IV) are also discussed.

First, a CHARMM molecular mechanics force field for lignin is derived and validated by performing a molecular dynamics simulation of a crystal of a lignin fragment molecule and comparing simulation-derived structural features with experimental results. Together with the existing force field for polysaccharides, this work provides the basis for full simulations of lignocellulose. Second, the underlying molecular mechanism governing the assembly of various cellulosomal modules is investigated by performing a novel free-energy calculation of the cohesin-dockerin dissociation. Our calculation indicates a free-energy barrier of similar to 17 kcal/mol and further reveals a stepwise dissociation pathway involving both the central beta-sheet interface and its adjacent solvent-exposed loop/turn regions clustered at both ends of the beta-barrel structure.

The study of the structure and mechanism of these large macromolecular complexes is an active and ongoing research topic worldwide, with the goal of finding ways to improve biomass conversion using cellulosomes. Here, we present methods for illuminating the structure and function of systems of this size and complexity using molecular modeling. We show examples of these methods as applied to a range of sizes and time scales from atomistic models of enzymatic modules to coarse-grained models of the entire cellulosomal complex of scaffold and enzymes. Normal mode analysis, fluctuations, hydrogen-bond analysis of enzymes, as well as sampling techniques for cellulosome assembly are described and the results presented. For example, the mechanism of the immunoglobulin-like module of GH9 proteins is shown to be determined largely by hydrogen bond networks, and the exact hydrogen bonds were identified. Finally, by using coarse-grained modeling and parameter scanning techniques, the assembly of cellulosomal complexes is shown to be dominated by their size and shape and not by their mass.

The coarse-grained model can reproduce a stable cellulose (1,0,0) surface with an excellent agreement with an all-atom model. When used to study the interaction of the family 1 carbohydrate-binding module (CBM1) with this cellulose surface model, the CBM "opens" as in earlier atomistic simulations. This cellulose I beta surface model produces simulations in which the CBM translates along a broken cellodextrin chain. This processive motion of the exoglucanase cellobiohydrolase I has long been suggested by experimental studies, but has never before been observed in computer simulations.

In particular, we focus on the linker polypeptide from cellobiohydrolase I (CBH 1) from Trichoderma reesei, which is one of the most active cellulase enzymes. CBH I is a multi-domain enzyme, consisting of a large catalytic domain containing an active site tunnel and a small cellulose binding module, which are joined together by a 27-amino-acid residue linker peptide. CBH I is believed to hydrolyze cellulose in a "processive" manner; however, the exact mechanism of the depolymerization of cellulose by CBH I is not fully understood. It has been hypothesized that the flexible interdomain linker mediates a caterpillar-like motion that enables the enzyme to move along the cellodextrin strand. Although the linker polypeptide sequence is known, the spatial conformation adopted by the linker domain and its role in the hydrolysis process, if any, has yet to be determined. The simulation results obtained to date indicate that the CBH I linker's free energy is critically dependent on the existence of the cellulose substrate and the stretching/compression pathway adopted. In the presence of a cellulose surface, simulations suggest that the linker exhibits two stable states, which would support the hypothesis that the linker peptide has the capacity to store energy in a manner similar to a spring and facilitate a caterpillar-like motion.

These enzymes act synergistically to hydrolyse the beta-1,4 bonds of cellulose and converts it into simple sugar. Hydrolysis of the glycosidic bond can occur either by net retention or by inversion of anomeric configuration at the anomeric center. QM/MM simulations are useful tools to study the energetics of the reactions and analyze the active-site structures at different states of the catalysis, including the formation of unstable transition states. Here, a brief description of previous work on glycoside hydrolases is first given. The results of the QM/MM potential energy and free energy simulations corresponding to glycosylation and deglycosylation processes are then provided for two retaining endoglucanases, Cell2A and Cel5A. The active-site structural features are analyzed based on the QM/MM results. The role of different residues and hydrogen bonding interactions during the catalysis and the importance of the sugar ring distortion are discussed for these two enzymes.

In particular, the method will allow for the determination of heats of formation, which can be used to determine bond strengths important in the decomposition of sugars in, for example, the pyrolysis of biomass. This chapter includes a brief review of the current methodology for calculating thermodynamic properties using electronic structure methods and a description of the proposed extensions. Preliminary results using the lowest members of the hierarchy give a standard heat of formation value of beta-D-glucopyranose-gg to be approximately 250 to 260 kcal/mol. These results are promising, and future work will include the calculation of highly accurate building blocks on which this method is based.

Empirical approaches have shown severe limitations in their capability to understand and control the conversion processes. However, without the ability to accurately predict and optimize thermochemical conversion performance, large-scale commercialization of these systems is severely compromised. In this context, Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) appears as an essential tool to better comprehend the complex physical and chemical processes involved, paving the way toward efficient control and design strategies. After a brief description of the numerical models needed to simulate biomass gasification and pyrolysis, the contributions of CFD to process design and optimization are detailed. Finally, the state of the art in terms of numerical models for the dense, reactive particulate flows typically found in conversion processes are reviewed. Shortcomings of existing CFD simulations, especially in terms of validation and predictability, are examined; and directions for future research based on the progress of CFD in other fields are suggested.

As the transition states through the dynamical bottlenecks are often difficult to capture experimentally, theory and computation are useful tools to elucidate transition states. This review describes a set of computational methods that enable the rigorous determination of mechanisms, free energy barriers, and rate constants for activated processes in complex, high-dimensional systems. The transition path sampling method for sampling reactive pathways and a subsequent methodological development, aimless shooting, are reviewed. Likelihood maximization, which is a method to extract the reaction coordinate of an activate process from path sampling data, is discussed in detail. In addition, the equilibrium path sampling approach and the earlier BOLAS approach for determining free energy barriers are examined. These techniques offer a means to access kinetically meaningful results from molecular simulation of activated processes in complex systems.

This has been a driving force in climate modeling for nearly a decade now, and fusion energy, space weather modeling are starting to integrate different sub-physics into a single model. Through component-based software engineering, an interface supporting this coupling process provides a way to invoke the sub-model through the common interface which the top model uses, then a coupled model turns into a higher level model. In addition to allowing applications to switch among linear solvers, a linear solver interface is also needed for the model coupling. A linear solver interface helps in creating solvers for the integrated multi-physics simulation that combines separate codes, and can use each code's native and specialized solver for the sub-problem corresponding to each physics sub-model. This paper presents a new approach on coupling multi-physics codes in terms of coupled solver, and shows the successful proof for coupled simulation through the implicit solve.

Worse, algorithms widely accepted as appropriate for simulation are inappropriate for visualization. In this paper, we describe a new algorithm that is specifically intended for reconstructing material interfaces for visualization and analysis requirements. The algorithm performs well with respect to memory footprint and execution time, has desirable properties in various accuracy metrics, and also produces smooth surfaces with few artifacts, even when faced with more than two materials per cell.

In the context of a cohesive approach to fracture, properly resolving the cohesive zone ensures that the resistance is in equilibrium with the driving force. Additional restrictions on the mesh size can stem from crack stability. For high strength, low toughness (brittle) materials, the requirements for stability can exceed those for cohesive zone resolution. Examples in 1-D and 2-D reveal that decrements in the mesh size transition the system from indefinite to positive definite. Moreover, small decreases in the mesh size beyond the transition provide substantial reductions in the condition number. We contrast a physical instability resulting from material properties, geometry, or boundary conditions from a numerical instability resulting from the mesh size and propose that the selected discretization should ensure that the cohesive zone is both resolved and stabilized.

The ODTLES model is obtained by developing a consistent approach for dynamically coupling the different ODT line sets to each other and to the large scale processes that are resolved on the 3D mesh.

In this paper, we present a modified Gaussian integration scheme on background cells for meshfree methods that alleviates errors in numerical integration and ensures patch test satisfaction to machine precision. Secondly, a locking-free small-strain elasticity formulation for meshfree methods is proposed, which draws on developments in assumed strain methods and nodal integration techniques. In this study, maximum-entropy basis functions are used: however, the generality of our approach permits the use of any meshfree approximation. Various benchmark problems in two-dimensional compressible and near-incompressible small strain elasticity are presented to demonstrate the accuracy and optimal convergence in the energy norm of the maximum-entropy meshfree formulation.

TI Transient analysis of the dynamic stress intensity factors using SGBEM for frequency-domain elastodynamics SO COMPUTER METHODS IN APPLIED MECHANICS AND ENGINEERING LA English DT Article DE Symmetric-Galerkin boundary element method; Elastodynamics; Dynamic fracture analysis; Dynamic stress intensity factors; Transient responses ID BOUNDARY-ELEMENT METHOD; HYPERSINGULAR INTEGRALS; FRACTURE-ANALYSIS; CRACK PROBLEMS; COMPUTATION AB In this paper, a two-dimensional symmetric-Galerkin boundary integral formulation for elastodynamic fracture analysis in the frequency domain is described. The numerical implementation is carried out with quadratic elements, allowing the use of an improved quarter-point element for accurately determining frequency responses of the dynamic stress intensity factors (DSIFs). To deal with singular and hypersingular integrals, the formulation is decomposed into two parts: the first part is identical to that for elastostatics while the second part contains at most logarithmic singularities. The treatment of the elastostatic singular and hypersingular singular integrals employs an exterior limit to the boundary, while the weakly singular integrals in the second part are handled by Gauss quadrature. Time histories (transient responses) of the DSIFs can be obtained in a post-processing step by applying the standard fast Fourier transform (FFT) and algorithm to the frequency responses of these DSIFs. Several test examples are presented for the calculation of the DSIFs due to two types of impact loading: Heaviside step loading and blast loading. The results suggest that the combination of the symmetric-Galerkin boundary element method and standard FFT algorithms in determining transient responses of the DSIFs is a robust and effective technique.

Numerical instabilities are controlled by a stabilizing operator derived using the paradigm of the variational multiscale analysis. Encouraging numerical comparisons with existing methods in the case of quadrilateral and hexahedral elements indicate that the proposed method is capable of preventing hourglass patterns in the solution, while maintaining accuracy in regions of smooth flow. The proposed approach satisfies Galilean invariance properties and hinges upon the interpretation of the Lagrangian shock hydrodynamics equations as a system of nonlinear wave equations. A specific implementation in terms of a predictor/multi-corrector version of the mid-point time integrator guarantees global conservation of mass, momentum, and total energy for each iterate. Stability and formal order of accuracy are investigated applying the von Neumann analysis to the linearized shock hydrodynamics equations in one dimension. This approach yields tight bounds for stable time-step estimation, formal second-order accuracy of the method in time and space, and valuable indications on the choice of the most appropriate values for the stabilization parameters present in the formulation.

Results for two-orbitals are also briefly discussed. Focusing on an the realistic electronic density n = 0.75, a regime of competition between ferromagnetic (FM) metallic and charge-ordered (CO) insulating states was identified in the finite temperature phase diagram. In the vicinity of the associated bicritical point, colossal magnetoresistance (CMR) effects were observed. The CMR magnitude is much larger than recently reported when randomly distributed polarons form the competing insulator. The appearance of CMR is associated with the development of short-distance correlations among polarons, above the spin ordering temperatures, resembling the charge arrangement of the low-temperature CO state. We present calculations of charge-charge correlations as well as typical Monte Carlo snapshots to support this view. (C) 2010 Published by Elsevier Ltd.

This problem was first solved in polynomial time by Dijkstra, who showed that by extracting vertices with the smallest distance from the source and relaxing its outgoing edges, the shortest path to each vertex is obtained. Variations of this general theme have led to a number of algorithms which work well in practice. At the heart of a Dijkstra implementation is the technique used to implement a priority queue. It is well known that using Dijkstra's approach requires Omega (n log n)steps on a graph having n vertices, since it essentially sorts vertices based on their distances from the source. Accordingly, the fastest implementation of Dijkstra's algorithm on a graph with it vertices and in edges should take Omega (m + n . log n) time, and consequently, the Dijkstra procedure for SSSPP using Fibonacci Heaps is optimal in the comparison-based model. In this paper, we introduce a new data structure to implement priority queues called two-level heap (TLH) and a new variant of Dijkstra's algorithm called Phased Dijkstra. We contrast the performance of Dijkstra's algorithm (both the simple and the phased variants) using a number of data structures to implement the priority queue and empirically establish that TLH are far superior to Fibonacci heaps on every graph family considered. It is to be noted that our profiling includes both sparse and dense graphs. C1 [Subramani, K.] W Virginia Univ, Morgantown, WV 26506 USA.

At the same time, the coarse-grain dataflow model gains popularity as a paradigm for programming multicore architectures. This Work looks at implementing classic dense linear algebra workloads, the Cholesky factorization, the QR factorization and the LU factorization, using dynamic data-driven execution. Two emerging approaches to implementing coarse-grain dataflow are examined, the model of nested parallelism, represented by the Cilk framework, and the model of parallelism expressed through an arbitrary Direct Acyclic Graph, represented by the SMP Superscalar framework. Performance and coding effort are analyzed and compared against code manually parallelized at the thread level. Copyright (C) 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Thain, Douglas TI Visualizing massively multithreaded applications with ThreadScope SO CONCURRENCY AND COMPUTATION-PRACTICE & EXPERIENCE LA English DT Article DE visualization; multithreading; structure ID SYSTEM; GRAPH AB As highly parallel multicore machines become commonplace, programs must exhibit more concurrency to exploit the available hardware. Many multithreaded programming models already encourage programmers to create hundreds or thousands of short-lived threads that interact in complex ways. Programmers need to be able to analyze, tune, and troubleshoot these large-scale multi-threaded programs. To address this problem, we present ThreadScope: a tool for tracing, visualizing, and analyzing massively multithreaded programs. ThreadScope extracts the machine-independent program structure from execution trace data from a variety of tracing tools and displays it as a graph of dependent execution blocks and memory objects, enabling identification of synchronization and structural problems, even if they did not occur in the traced run. It also uses graph-based analysis to identify potential problems. We demonstrate the use of ThreadScope to view program structure, memory access patterns, and synchronization problems in three programming environments and seven applications.

In this paper, numerical simulations of a liquid mercury jet entering strong and nonuniform magnetic field and interacting with a powerful proton pulse have been performed and compared with experiments. Such a mercury jet is a prototype of the proposed Muon Collider / Neutrino Factory, a future particle accelerator. Simulations demonstrate the elliptic distortion of the mercury jet as it enters the magnetic solenoid at a small angle to the magnetic axis, jet-surface instabilities (filamentation) induced by the interaction with proton pulses, and the stabilizing effect of the magnetic field.

The first type of cellular model is appropriate for hydrogen. The second type is for Z > 1. It has the independent; electron approximation within the atoms. These models are cross compared and minimal regions of validity are determined. The actual region of validity is expected to be larger. In the cellular models, the phase boundaries for liquid-gas transitions are found. For the second type of cellular modal, in the part, of the low-temperature, low-density region where there is not much expectation of validity of these methods, a non-thermodynamic region is found. l have devised a construction, similar in spirit to the Maxwell construction, to bridge this region so as to leave a thermodynamically valid equation of state. The non-thermodynamic region does not occur in hydrogen and it seems to be due to the inadequacy of the aforementioned approximation in that region.

In this article, we conduct thermodynamic analysis on a class of generalized second-grade fluids, one distinguishing feature of which is the existence of a constitutive function I broken vertical bar that describes frictional heating. We work within the framework of Serrin's original formulation of neoclassical thermodynamics, where internal energy and entropy functions, if they exist for a continuous body at all, are to be derived from the classical First Law and (quantitatively reformulated) Second Law of thermodynamics for cycles. For the class of generalized second-grade fluids in question, we show from the First Law that an internal energy density u exists, and we derive the equation of energy balance; from the Second Law, we demonstrate the existence of an entropy density s and derive the Clausius-Duhem inequality that it satisfies. We obtain explicit expressions for u, s and the frictional heating I broken vertical bar, and derive thermodynamic restrictions on the material functions of temperature mu, alpha (1), and alpha (2) that appear in the constitutive relation for the Cauchy stress. For the special case of second-grade fluids, our expressions for u and s agree with those which Dunn and Fosdick [6] derived under the theoretical framework of the rational thermodynamics of Coleman and Noll.

The analysis precisely identifies all anodic current transients and allows us to distinguish carefully between those within the background noise level and those outliers that are considered to indicate the onset of pitting corrosion. A strong potential dependence was observed for the measured characteristics of both the background current noise and the identified pitting events. C1 [Soltis, J.; Hodges, S.; Laycocki, N.

Fabrication processes of net shape/ near net shape components, such as uniaxial die-pressing, cold isostatic pressing (CIP), sintering, roll compaction and stamping, have been evaluated. The press-and-sinter processing of the powders were systematically investigated in terms of theoretical density and microstructure as a function of time, pressure, and temperature. Up to 96.4% theoretical density has been achieved with the press-and-sinter technology. Tensile properties of the consolidated samples exhibit good ductility as well as equivalent yield/ultimate tensile strengths to those of fully consolidate materials, even with the presence of a certain amount of porosity. A consolidation model is also under development to interpret the powder deformation during processing. Net shape components made of the Armstrong powder can successfully be fabricated with clearer surface details by using press-and-sinter processing.

The objective is to simulate the actual manufacturing process of near net shape Ti components. Ti powders were uniaxially pre-pressed at designated pressures up to 100 ksi to form disk samples with different theoretical densities. Compression tests were performed in an SEM at different temperatures to obtain the mechanical properties and deformation behavior of these samples. Ex-situ technique was used to track the powder deformation process of disk samples from low pressure to high pressure. In-situ sintering was also performed in an SEM to record the morphology change of the porosities on the sample surface during the sintering process. The results will provide valuable information for optimizing the manufacturing process of high-density near net shape Ti components.

The reliable operation of the electricity infrastructure is an extremely challenging task because human operators have to consider thousands of possible configurations in near real time to choose the best option. Nevertheless, the operation of the electricity infrastructure is largely based on operator experience with limited real-time decision support. This makes it difficult for operators to anticipate, recognize and respond to anomalies caused by human error, natural disasters or cyber attacks. This paper proposes an advanced decision-support tool for electricity infrastructure operations. The tool converts large amounts of data into actionable information to help operators monitor the power grid status in real time. It performs trend analysis at the regional or system level to enable operators to foresee and discern emergencies; it performs cluster analysis to help operators identify the relationships between system configurations and affected assets; and it interactively assesses candidate actions to assist operators in making effective and timely decisions.

Upon PAMP recognition, the TLR induces intracellular signaling cascades that involve adapter, signalosome, and transcription factor complexes and result in the production of both pro- and anti-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines. An inflammatory response for a short duration can be beneficial because it helps to clear the infectious agent. However, prolonged inflammation can be detrimental because it may cause host toxicity and tissue damage. Indeed, excessive production of inflammatory cytokines and chemokines via TLR pathways is often associated with many inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. Therefore, fine control of inflammation in the TLR pathway is highly desirable for effective host defense. In this article, we review intrinsic control mechanisms that include a balance between pro-inflammatory and anti-inflammatory cytokines and chemokines, production of host effectors, and regulation at the level of adapter, signalosome, and transcription factor complexes in the TLR pathways. We also discuss how understanding of the TLR signaling steps leads to the development of small-molecule drugs that can interfere with the formation of active adapter, signalosome, and adapter complexes.

Treatment with pegylated interferon (IFN) plus ribavirin leads to a sustained virologic response in about 50% of patients. New therapies using direct antiviral agents have the potential to cure patients unresponsive to IFN-based therapies. Mathematical modeling has played an important role in studying HCV kinetics. Using models, one can evaluate the effectiveness of new treatment agents, estimate important parameters that govern virus-host interactions, explore possible mechanisms of drug action against HCV, investigate the development of drug resistance, and study quasispecies dynamics during therapy. Here we review our current knowledge of HCV kinetics under IFN-based therapy and newly developed antiviral agents specifically targeted to attack HCV, and show how mathematical models have helped to improve our understanding of HCV infection and treatment.

Early detection of vector-borne pathogens is an essential step for the accurate surveillance and management of vector-borne diseases of specialty crops. Currently, we lack the tools that would detect the infectious agent at early (primary) stages of infection with a high degree of sensitivity and specificity. In this paper, we outline a strategy for developing an integrated suite of platform technologies to enable rapid, early disease detection and diagnosis of huanglong-bing (HLB), the most destructive citrus disease. The research has two anticipated outcomes: i) identification of very early, disease-specific biomarkers using a knowledge base of translational genomic information on host and pathogen responses associated with early (asymptomatic) disease development; and ii) development and deployment of novel sensors that capture these and other related biomarkers and aid in presymptomatic disease detection. By combining these two distinct approaches, it should be possible to identify and defend the crop by interdicting pathogen spread prior to the rapid expansion phase of the disease. We believe that similar strategies can also be developed for the surveillance and management of diseases affecting other economically important specialty crops.

Yearly epidemics of influenza infect up to 20% of the population, and in the US cause an average of 36,000 deaths every year. Because influenza is a short-term infection lasting 4 to 7 d in most cases, studying the dynamics of the virus and the immune response in vivo is difficult. Here we review the most recent attempts at mathematical modeling of influenza dynamics within the host to better understand the kinetics of the virus and associated immune responses. These models have been developed based on very successful kinetic studies of chronic infections, such as human immunodeficiency and hepatitis C viruses. We briefly review the approach taken for these infections before discussing the results obtained in the case of influenza. The dynamics of the latter have been studied both in vitro and in vivo. It was shown that the virus turnover is very fast, which helps to explain the accumulation of diversity. Moreover, initial attempts have been made at modeling the immune response to influenza, but these are still incipient and further studies, both experimental and theoretical, are needed to better elucidate the interplay of the virus and the immune response.

All of the latter arise as solutions of the Prasad-Sommerfield type first order differential (self-duality) equations and have been extensively discussed in the context of confinement and chiral symmetry breaking for the last 30 years. However, new calculable deformations of asymptotically free chiral and vector-like gauge theories give us a new picture of these physical phenomena. Most often, the excitations which lead to confinement are not solutions to PS-type equations, they are non-selfdual and they are often bizarre. They are referred to as magnetic bions, triplets, and quintets, due to their composite nature. Bizarre as they are, combined with large-N volume independence, these novel non-self-dual excitations may also provide hope that at least some non-abelian gauge theories may be solvable.

TI Runoff and mass-balance simulations from the Greenland Ice Sheet at Kangerlussuaq (Sondre Stromfjord) in a 30-year perspective, 1979-2008 SO CRYOSPHERE LA English DT Article ID COMPLEX SNOW DISTRIBUTIONS; REGIONAL CLIMATE MODEL; WEST GREENLAND; BLOWING-SNOW; SOUTHEAST GREENLAND; AMMASSALIK ISLAND; MELT EXTENT; AREA; SUBLIMATION; SYSTEM AB This study provides insights into surface mass-balance (SMB) and runoff exiting the Watson River drainage basin, Kangerlussuaq, West Greenland during a 30 year period (1978/1979-2007/2008) when the climate experienced increasing temperatures and precipitation. The 30-year simulations quantify the terrestrial freshwater output from part of the Greenland Ice Sheet (GrIS) and the land between the GrIS and the ocean, in the context of global warming and increasing GrIS surface melt. We used a snow-evolution modeling system (SnowModel) to simulate the winter accumulation and summer ablation processes, including runoff and SMB, of the ice sheet: indicating that the simulated equilibrium line altitude (ELA) was in accordance with independent observations. To a large extent, the SMB fluctuations could be explained by changes in net precipitation (precipitation minus evaporation and sublimation), with 8 out of 30 years having negative SMB, mainly because of relatively low annual net precipitation. The overall trend in net precipitation and runoff increased significantly, while SMB increased insignificantly throughout the simulation period, leading to enhanced precipitation of 0.59 km(3) w.eq. (or similar to 60%), runoff of 0.43 km(3) w.eq. (or similar to 55%), and SMB of 0.16 km(3) w.eq. (or similar to 85%). Runoff rose on average from 0.80 km(3) w.eq. in 1978/1979 to 1.23 km(3) w.eq. in 2007/2008. The GrIS satellite-derived melt-extent increased significantly, and the melting intensification occurred simultaneously with the increase in local Kangerlussuaq runoff, indicating that satellite data can be used as a proxy (r(2)=0.64) for runoff from the Kangerlussuaq drainage area.

A freshwater flux of 40.4 +/- 4.9 x 10(9) m(3) y(-1) was found (1999-2008), with an 85% contribution originated from ice discharge (65% alone from Helheim Glacier), 11% from terrestrial surface runoff (from melt water and rain), 3% from precipitation at the fjord surface area, and 1% from subglacial geothermal and frictional melting due to basal ice motion. The results demonstrate the dominance of ice discharge as a primary mechanism for delivering freshwater to Sermilik Fjord. Time series of ice discharge for Helheim Glacier, Midgard Glacier, and Fenris Glacier were calculated from satellite-derived average surface velocity, glacier width, and estimated ice thickness, and fluctuations in terrestrial surface freshwater runoff were simulated based on observed meteorological data. These simulations were compared and bias corrected against independent glacier catchment runoff observations. Modeled runoff to Sermilik Fjord was variable, ranging from 2.9 +/- 0.4 x 10(9) m(3) y(-1) in 1999 to 5.9 +/- 0.9 x 10(9) m(3) y(-1) in 2005. The sub-catchment runoff of the Helheim Glacier region accounted for 25% of the total runoff to Sermilik Fjord. The runoff distribution from the different sub-catchments suggested a strong influence from the spatial variation in glacier coverage, indicating high runoff volumes, where glacier cover was present at low elevations.

Since the discovery of the first MOF compound, hundreds of different MOFs have been developed and reported. MOFs are generally synthesized by self-assembly of metal ions/clusters as coordination centers and organic ligands as linkers. They possess intriguing chemical and physical properties and are structurally tunable, thermally stable and mechanically sound. MOFs are increasingly proving to be a superior class of materials for state-of-the-art applications in crystal engineering, chemistry, and materials science. In this Highlight, we present general routes for MOFs synthesis, discuss reticular design of their pore structures, and show some of their remarkable applications, especially in the areas of storage and separation.

Major objectives are clean energy transmission and integration, reliable energy transmission, and grid cyber security. Development of the Smart Grid seeks to achieve these goals by lowering energy costs for consumers, achieving energy independence and reducing greenhouse gas emissions. The Smart Grid is expected to enable real time wide-area situation awareness (SA) for operators. Requirements for wide-area SA have been identified among interoperability standards proposed by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission and the National Institute of Standards and Technology to ensure smart-grid functionality. Wide-area SA and enhanced decision support and visualization tools are key elements in the transformation to the Smart Grid. This paper discusses human factors research to promote SA in the electric power grid and the Smart Grid. Topics that will be discussed include the role of human factors in meeting US energy policy goals, the impact and challenges for Smart Grid development, and cyber security challenges.

This is a key motivation for visual analytics which aims to develop techniques that complement and empower human users. By contrast, the vast majority of algorithms developed in machine learning aim to replace human users in data exploitation. In this paper we describe a recently introduced machine learning problem, called rare category detection, which may be a better match to visual analytic environments. We describe a new design criteria for this problem, and present comparisons to existing techniques with both synthetic and real-world datasets. We conclude by describing an application in broad-area search of remote sensing imagery. C1 [Porter, Reid; Hush, Don; Harvey, Neal; Theiler, James] Los Alamos Natl Lab, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA.

The proposed approach seeks to improve efficiency in search and retrieval by transforming sensors into programmable information points and enabling ubiquitous data and software flows through the infrastructure of the distributed network. We explain the different components of such a middleware framework to organize, tag and notify emerging spatial, temporal and causal patterns from the sensor measurements.

TI Data File Standard for Flow Cytometry, Version FCS 3.1 SO CYTOMETRY PART A LA English DT Article DE flow cytometry; FCS; data standard; file format; bioinformatics AB The flow cytometry data file standard provides the specifications needed to completely describe flow cytometry data sets within the confines of the file containing the experimental data. In 1984, the first Flow Cytometry Standard format for data files was adopted as FCS 1.0. This standard was modified in 1990 as FCS 2.0 and again ill 1997 as FCS 3.0. We report here on the next generation flow cytometry standard data file format. FCS 3.1 is a minor revision based oil suggested improvements from the community The unchanged goal of the standard is to provide a uniform file format that allows Files created by one type of acquisition hardware and software to be analyzed by any other type. The FCS 3.1 standard retains the basic FCS file Structure and most features of previous versions of the standard. Changes included in FCS 3.1 address potential ambiguities in the previous versions and provide a more robust standard. The major changes include simplified support for international characters and improved support for storing compensation. The major additions are support for preferred display scale, a standardized way of capturing the sample volume, information about originality of the data file, and Support for plate and well identification in high throughput, plate based experiments. Please see the normative version of the FCS 3.1 specification ill Supporting Information for this manuscript (or at http://www.isac-net.org/ in the Current standards section) for a complete list of changes.

TI Synthesis, structure, magnetism, and high temperature thermoelectric properties of Ge doped Yb14MnSb11 SO DALTON TRANSACTIONS LA English DT Article ID METAL ZINTL COMPOUNDS; POWER-GENERATION; SINGLE-CRYSTALS; TRANSITION; PHASE; SR; BA; MAGNETORESISTANCE; YB14MN1-XALXSB11; YB14ZNSB11 AB The Zintl phase Yb14MnSb11 was successfully doped with Ge utilizing a tin flux technique. The stoichiometry was determined by microprobe analysis to be Yb13.99(14)Mn1.05(5)Sb10.89(16)Ge0.06(3). This was the maximum amount of Ge that could be incorporated into the structure via flux synthesis regardless of the amount included in the reaction. Single crystal X-ray diffraction could not unambiguously determine the site occupancy for Ge. Bond lengths varied by about 1% or less, compared with the undoped structure, suggesting that the small amount of Ge dopant does not significantly perturb the structure. Differential scanning calorimetry/thermogravimetry (DSC/TG) show that the doped compound's melting point is greater than 1200 K. The electrical resistivity and magnetism are virtually unchanged from the parent material, suggesting that Yb is present as Yb2+ and that the Ge dopant has little effect on the magnetic structure. At 900 K the resistivity and Seebeck coefficient decrease resulting in a zT of 0.45 at 1100 K, significantly lower than the undoped compound.

Mozharivskyj, Yurij TI Composition, structure, bonding and thermoelectric properties of "CuT2P3" and "CuT4P3", members of the T1-x(CuP3)(x) series with T being Si and Ge SO DALTON TRANSACTIONS LA English DT Article AB Through electron microprobe analysis, X-ray and neutron diffraction, it has been established that "CuT2P3" and "CuT4P3" (T = Si, Ge) adopt the cubic or tetragonally distorted zinc blende structures in which two element mixtures are present on both atomic sites. One site contains the Cu/T mixture while the other site is occupied by T and P. The structure of "CuT2P3" and "CuT4P3" can be derived from that of silicon or germanium, in which the single Si or Ge site is broken into two independent sites by the preferential Cu and P substitution. The phases appear to be members of the extended series with a general formula of T1-x(CuP3)(x). The Cu-P ratio of 1 : 3 provides 4 e(-) per atom and optimizes the atomic interactions. Thermoelectric performance of "CuSi2P3", "CuGe2P3" and "CuGe4P3" was evaluated from low temperatures to 400 K through resistivity, Seebeck coefficient and thermal conductivity measurements. The Ge-containing phases show a metallic-type behaviour and "CuSi2P3" is semiconducting with a narrow band gap. The ZT values are bigger for the Ge-containing phases and reach values of 8.49 x 10(-3) for "CuGe2P3" and 1.09 x 10(-2) for "CuGe4P3" at room temperature.

The remarkable cyclodimerization reaction is proposed to involve a number of one-electron oxidative steps mediated by Mn(3+) ions, as well as a very uncommon 1,2-radical aryl migration and a nucleophilic attack of the solvent, i.e. methanol.

Thermolysis of 1 with (Z)-Ph2PCH=CHPPh2 (dppen) furnishes the new cluster compounds Ru-5(mu(5)-C)(CO)(12)(mu(3)-dppen) (2), Ru-6(mu(6)-C)(CO)(14)(mu(3)-dppen) (3), and Ru-6(mu(6)-C)(CO)(12)(mu(3)-dppen)(mu-dppen) (4). Clusters 2 and 3 are also obtained when a mixture of 1 and dppen is treated with the oxidative-decarbonylation reagent Me3NO. Thermolysis or Me3NO activation of 1 in the presence of 4,5-bis(diphenylphosphino)-4-cyclopenten- 1,3-dione (bpcd) yields Ru-6(mu(6)-C)(CO)(14)(mu(3)-bpcd) (4) as the sole observable product. Near-UV irradiation of 4 leads to P-C bond cleavage and the formation of phosphido-bridged cluster Ru-6(mu(6)-C)(CO)(13)[mu(3)-C=C(PPh2)C(O)CH2C(O)](mu-PPh2) (6) in essentially quantitative yield. The reaction between 1 and the ligand 3,4-bis(diphenylphosphino)-5-methoxy-2(5H)-furanone (bmf) leads to the formation of Ru-6(mu(6)-C)(CO)(14)(mu(3)-bmf) (7), which exists as a single diastereomer in solution as shown by H-1 and P-31 NMR spectroscopy. The molecular structures and the binding mode of the ancillary diphosphine ligand(s) in 2-7 have all been established by X-ray diffraction analyses. The solid-state structure of 7 reveals that the chiral bmf ligand caps one of the metallic faces stereospecifically with the 5-methoxy moiety oriented distal or trans relative to the Ru-6 polyhedral core. The new substitution products are discussed relative to the products obtained from 1 and the related diphosphine ligands dppm, dppe, dppf, and dppbz.

The complexes also serve as electrocatalysts for the reduction of O(2) with the addition of a weak acid. In contrast, a closely related nickel diphosphine complex without the positioned bases is catalytically inactive for O(2) reduction. These results indicate that pendant bases in synthetic catalysts for O(2) reduction can play a similar role to proton relays in enzymes, and that such relays should be considered in the design of catalysts for multi-electron and multi-proton reactions.

Here we report the formation of a homocitrate-free, iron-molybdenum ("FeMo") cluster on the biosynthetic scaffold of FeMoco, NifEN. Such a NifEN-associated "FeMo" cluster exhibits EPR features similar to those of the NifEN-associated, fully-complemented "FeMoco", which originate from the presence of Mo in both cluster species; however, "FeMo" cluster and "FeMoco" display different temperature-dependent changes in the line shape and the signal intensity of their respective EPR features, which reflect the impact of homocitrate on the redox properties of these clusters. XAS/EXAFS analysis reveals that the Mo centers in both "FeMo" cluster and "FeMoco" are present in a similar coordination environment, although Mo in "FeMo" cluster is more loosely coordinated as compared to that in "FeMoco" with respect to the Mo-O distances in the cluster, likely due to the absence of homocitrate that normally serves as an additional ligand for the Mo in the cluster. Subsequent biochemical investigation of the "FeMo" cluster not only facilitates the determination of the sequence of events in the mobilization of Mo and homocitrate during FeMoco maturation, but also permits the examination of the role of homocitrate in the transfer of FeMoco between NifEN and MoFe protein. Combined outcome of these studies establishes a platform for future structural analysis of the interactions between NifEN and MoFe protein, which will provide useful insights into the mechanism of cluster transfer between the two proteins.

Thermodynamic parameters, including the stability constant and the enthalpy of complexation, were determined by spectrophotometry and calorimetry. Single-crystal structure of NpO(2)(H(2)O)(DMOGA)center dot H(2)O(c) was identified by X-ray diffractometry using synchrotron radiation. Like ODA and TMOGA, DMOGA forms a tridentate Np(V) complex, with three oxygen atoms coordinating to the linear NpO(2)(+) moiety via the equatorial plane. The stability constants, enthalpy and entropy of complexation generally decrease in the order ODA > DMOGA > TMOGA, suggesting that the complexation is entropy driven and the substitution of a carboxylate group with an amide group reduces the strength of complexation with Np(V) due to the decrease in the entropy of complexation.

In this article, we demonstrate that-despite its simplicity-an isotropic Heisenberg model successfully provides a comprehensive description of the magnetic properties of the {Fe(8)}-cubane and the {Cr(12)Cu(2)} magnetic molecules. However, in order to achieve this success, it is necessary to employ a variety of sophisticated experimental and theoretical techniques. These include the use of pulsed-field measurements to observe a high-field (41 T) ground-state level crossing in the {Fe(8)}-cubane system, and tunnel-diode oscillator measurements, which we use to observe excited-state level crossings in the {Cr(12)Cu(2)} ring.

Compounds 1, 3 and 4 were structurally characterized and equivalent structures for 1 and 2 were inferred from spectroscopic and analytical results. Compounds 1 and 2 consist of hexanuclear Mn(2)(II)Mn(4)(III) complexes whereas 3 consists of an octanuclear Mn(6)(II)Mn(2)(III) cluster in which the manganese atoms exhibit a rare bicapped elongated octahedral topology. Compound 4 consists of a 1D system bridged by double end-on azido ligands. Variable temperature magnetic studies were performed between 2-300 K, confirming the ground state S = 5 for 1 and 2, S = 0 for 3 and ferromagnetic response for 4.

The aerobic reaction of this ligand with ferrous thiocyanate in the presence of ascorbic or oxalic acid affords the dinuclear complex of seven-coordinate Fe(III), [Fe-2(H(4)L2)(2)(ox)(NCS)(4)] (1), as revealed by single crystal X-ray diffraction. This may represent an entry into a new family of [Fe-2] compounds with heptacoordinate metal centres. The capacity of this unusual chromophore to undergo magnetic super-exchange was investigated by means of bulk magnetization and DFT calculations. Both approaches confirmed the presence of antiferromagnetic interactions within the molecule. The theoretical investigation has served to describe the magnetic orbitals of Fe(III) in this unusual coordination geometry, as well as the exchange mechanism. A brief review of the scarce number of iron heptacoordinate complexes reported in the literature is also included and discussed.

The compound was structurally characterized by single-crystal X-ray diffraction. In the crystal structure the dinuclear nickel units are connected to the tetranuclear Mn2Ni2 units by means of strong hydrogen-bonding interactions. The compound was further characterized by ESI-MS, ligand-field and infrared spectroscopy. The magnetic properties of the compound have been studied in combination with preliminary DFT calculations, and have resulted in the successful determination of the nature of the magnetic exchange interactions between the metal ions, and hence the coupling constants.

The reaction is complicated by the equilibrium between the benzyl derivative and the metallacycle [1,2,4-(Me3C)(3)C5H2][(Me3C)(2)C5H2C(CH3)(2)CH2] Ce, plus toluene since the metallacycle reacts with CH3X. Labelling studies show that the methyl group of the methylhalide is transferred intact to the benzyl group. The mechanism, as revealed by DFT calculations on (C5H5)(2)CeCH2Ph and CH3F, does not proceed by way of a four-center mechanism, a sigma-bond metathesis, but by a lower barrier process involving a haptotropic shift of the Cp2Ce fragment so that at the transition state the para-carbon of the benzene ring is attached to the Cp2Ce fragment while the CH2 fragment of the benzyl group attacks CH3F that is activated by coordination to the metal ion. As a result the mechanism is classi. ed as an associative interchange process.

TI Series behavior of lanthanoid(III) complexes with the alpha-1-Wells-Dawson heteropolyoxoanion in acetonitrile: electrochemistry and Ln coordination SO DALTON TRANSACTIONS LA English DT Article ID MONOVACANT DAWSON POLYOXOTUNGSTATE; AQUEOUS CHLORIDE SOLUTIONS; ABSORPTION FINE-STRUCTURE; X-RAY-DIFFRACTION; RARE-EARTH IONS; LANTHANIDE COMPLEXES; NMR-SPECTROSCOPY; WELLS-DAWSON; STRUCTURAL-CHARACTERIZATION; CHIRAL POLYOXOTUNGSTATES AB The tetra-n-butylammonium (TBA(+)) salts for a series of lanthanoid(III) (Ln = Nd, Sm, Eu, Tb, Dy, Yb, and Y) complexes with the alpha-1-isomer of the Wells-Dawson heteropolyoxoanion, alpha-1-[P(2)W(17)O(61)](10), were prepared and characterized by voltammetry, controlled-potential bulk electrolysis, Eu L(3)-edge XANES spectroelectrochemistry, and Ln L(3)-edge X-ray absorption spectroscopy. Aspects of the series behavior across the 4f period for the complex anions with nominal 1 : 1 Ln(III): alpha-1-[P(2)W(17)O(61)](10-) stoichiometries are detailed. The voltammetric response of the alpha-1 ligand alone in dry acetonitrile (with 0.1 M (TBA)PF(6) electrolyte) is concentration independent and remarkably well-defined with five waves attributable to W-based redox processes. The formation of heteropoly blue solutions upon electrochemical reduction results in chemical instabilities and isomerization. The deliberate addition of water turns an otherwise ideal response into a broad and poorly resolved one, wherein the first reduction process is shifted 150 mV to more positive electrode potentials. Upon its coordination with Ln(III) ions, the voltammetric response develops notable complexities with as many as ten concentration-dependent couples attributable to W-based redox processes of the Ln: a-1 complexes. The results from in situ Eu L3-edge XANES of the Eu(III): a-1 complex provide no evidence for the one-electron reduction of Eu(III) at controlled electrode potentials comparable to those that were previously found to form Eu(II) in the potassium salt of the corresponding Eu(III) complex upon reduction in an aqueous electrolyte. To explain the contrasting system behaviors, the Ln(III) coordination environments in the TBA(5)H(2)[(H(2)O)(n)Ln(alpha-1-P(2)W(17)O(61))] solid salts, including the extent of Ln hydration (n) upon their dissolution in acetonitrile, were determined through use of EXAFS, which demonstrates a structural uniformity among the salts and their acetonitrile solutions, wherein the average Ln-O interatomic distances and O coordination numbers reveal variations that are consistent with the effects of the lanthanoid contraction. The side-by-side comparison of the solid and solution data provides evidence that is consistent with a partial solvent (H(2)O-CH(3)CN) exchange upon dissolution in MeCN. Details of the Ln(III) coordination chemistry, wherein the decrease in the ionic radius from the large, light Nd(III) to the small, heavy Yb(III), are presented in the context of known structural and physical phenomena of acetonitrile solvates, aqua ions, and the corresponding water-soluble K(7)[(H(2)O)(4)Eu(alpha-1-P(2)W(17)O(61))] complex.

Carboxylic acids [H-ORc = H-OPc (H-O2CCH(CH3)(2), H-OBc (H-O2CC(CH3)(3), H-ONc (H-O2CCH2C(CH3)(3))] were individually reacted with diethyl zinc (ZnEt2) to yield a set of previously unidentified zinc carboxylates: (i) [Zn(mu-ORc)(3)Zn(mu-ORc)](n) [ORc = OPc (1), ONc (2)], (ii) [(py)Zn](2)(mu-ORc)(4) [ORc = OBc (3), ONc (4), and py = pyridine], or (iii) Zn(ORc)(2)(solv)(2) [ORc/solv = OPc/py (5), O(c)Nc/H2O (6) (O(c)Rc = chelating)]. Introduction of lanthanide cation [Ln[N(SiMe3)(2)](3), ZnEt2, and HOBc in py] yielded the mixed cationic species structurally characterized as: (i) (O(c)Bc)Ln[(mu-OBc)(3)Zn(py)](2) [Ln = Pr (7), Nd (8), Sm (9)] or (ii) (py)(2)Zn(mu-OBc)(3)Ln(O(c)Bc)(2)(py) [Ln = Tb (10), Dy (11), Er (12), Y (13), Yb (14)]. Exploration of alternative starting materials [Ln(NO3)(3)center dot nH(2)O, Zn(O2CCH3)(2), HOBc in py] led to the isolation of (NO3c)Ln[(mu-OBc)(3)Zn(py)](2) [Ln = La (15), Ce (16), Pr (17), Nd (18), Sm (19), Eu (20), Gd (21), Tb (22) Dy (23), and Er (24); NO3c = chelating]. The UV-vis spectra of 7-24 revealed standard absorption spectra for the Ln cations. Representative compounds were used to generate nanoparticles from an established 1,4-butanediol-based solution precipitation route. The nanoproducts isolated adopted either a mixed zincite/lanthanum oxide (18n or 22n) or pure zincite (8n or 10n) phase dependent on NO3 or OBc moiety. Fluorescence was not observed for any of these nanomaterials possibly due to phase separation, low crystallinity, surface traps, and/or quenching based on elevated Ln cation content.

The 1 : 2 complex, NpO2(MIDA)(2)(3-) was identified for the first time in aqueous solution. The correlation between its optical absorption properties and symmetry was discussed, in comparison with Np(v) complexes with two structurally related nitrilo-dicarboxylic acids, iminodiacetic acid (IDA) and dipicolinic acid (DPA). The order of the binding strength (DPA > MIDA > IDA) is explained by the difference in the structural and electronic properties of the ligands. In general, the nitrilo-dicarboxylates form stronger complexes with Np(v) than oxy-dicarboxylates due to a much more favorable enthalpy of complexation.

The diformate Bu(2)(n)Sn{OC(O)H}(2) (1) was synthesized by the reaction of Bu(2)(n)SnH(2) with formic acid. The triorganotin monoformate compounds R(3)SnOC(O)H (R = Cy (cyclohexyl)) 3, Mes, (mesityl, 2,4,6-trimethylphenyl) 4, and Dmp (2,6-dimethylphenyl 5) were obtained by the reaction of R(3)SnOH with formic acid. Their X-ray crystal structures along with that of the previously reported formate (PhCH(2))(3)SnOC(O)H (2) were determined. The diformate 1 exhibits an extended two-dimensional polymeric structure in which six-coordinate tin centers are linked by formate bridges. The tribenzyltin formate (2) possesses a chain structure in which the five-coordinate Sn(CH(2)Ph)(3) units are bridged by formate ions. The cyclohexyl derivative 3 was observed to have a similar structure. In contrast, the Mes and Dmp derivatives 4 and 5 support monomeric structures in which the four-coordinate tin atom is bound to an oxygen of the formate ligand. Heating the compounds in various high boiling solvents produced no decomposition up to 120 degrees C in the case of 1 and refluxing a solution of 2 or 3 in mesitylene or diglyme left the starting material mostly unchanged, although 3 decomposed to an insoluble orange solid in refluxing decalin. In contrast, the heating of 4 and 5 in refluxing mesitylene led to elimination of CO to give the tin hydroxides. The results are in contrast to the known thermolytic behavior of R(3)SnOC(O) H (R = Pr(n) or Bu(n)) complexes, which eliminate CO(2) to generate R(3)SnH. Compounds 3-5 are rare examples of structurally characterized tin formates. C1 [Sutton, Andrew D.; Gordon, John C.] Los Alamos Natl Lab, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA.

As the cloud expands, the effective mass and the total energy density eventually increase with decreasing density. In this regime, the pressure-density relation can approximate that required for dark energy. We apply this phenomenon to the expansion of the Universe with a very light scalar field and infer relations between the parameters available and cosmological observations.

TI Improving estimation accuracy of aggregate queries on data cubes SO DATA & KNOWLEDGE ENGINEERING LA English DT Article; Proceedings Paper CT 11th ACM International Workshop on Data Warehousing and OLAP held in Conjunction with 17th Conference on Information and Knowledge Management CY OCT 30, 2008 CL Napa, CA DE Query estimation; Entropy; Accuracy analysis AB In this paper, we investigate the problem of estimation of a target database from summary databases derived from a base data cube. We show that such estimates can be derived by choosing a primary database with the desired target measure but not the desired dimensions, and use a proxy database to estimate the results. This technique is common in statistics, but an important issue we are addressing is the accuracy of these estimates. Specifically, given multiple primary and multiple proxy databases, the problem is how to select the primary and proxy databases that will generate the most accurate target database estimation possible. We propose an algorithmic approach which makes use of the principles of information entropy for determining the steps to select or compute the primary and proxy databases that provide the most accurate target database. We show that the primary database with the largest number of cells in common with the target database and the proxy database provides the more accurate estimates. We prove that this is consistent with maximizing the entropy. We provide some experimental results on the accuracy of the target database estimation in order to verify our results. Furthermore, we investigate the accuracy results in cases where the dimensions are defined over a hierarchy of categories and roll-up and drill-down operations are needed to generate the desired target results.

Many approaches have been developed, but one of the most successful in recent times is the random forest. The discriminant random forest is a novel extension of the random forest classification methodology that leverages linear discriminant analysis to perform multivariate node splitting during tree construction. An extended study of the discriminant random forest is presented which shows that its individual classifiers are stronger and more diverse than their random forest counterparts, yielding statistically significant reductions in classification error of up to 79.5%. Moreover, empirical tests suggest that this approach is computationally less costly with respect to both memory and efficiency. Further enhancements of the methodology are investigated that exhibit significant performance improvements and greater stability at low false alarm rates.

Extensive experimental efforts over the last several years and the availability of 21 sequenced Shewanella genomes made it possible to collect and integrate a wealth of information on the genus into one public resource providing new avenues for making biological discoveries and for developing a system level understanding of the cellular processes. The Shewanella knowledgebase was established in 2005 to provide a framework for integrated genome-based studies on Shewanella ecophysiology. The present version of the knowledgebase provides access to a diverse set of experimental and genomic data along with tools for curation of genome annotations and visualization and integration of genomic data with experimental data. As a demonstration of the utility of this resource, we examined a single microarray data set from Shewanella oneidensis MR-1 for new insights into regulatory processes. The integrated analysis of the data predicted a new type of bacterial transcriptional regulation involving co-transcription of the intergenic region with the downstream gene and suggested a biological role for co-transcription that likely prevents the binding of a regulator of the upstream gene to the regulator binding site located in the intergenic region.

I begin with a review of the Z boson, one of the best-studied resonances in particle physics, and review how the Breit-Wigner form of the propagator emerges in perturbation theory and discuss the narrow width approximation. I review how the LEP and SLAC experiments could use the kinematics of Z events to learn about fermion couplings to the Z. I then make a brief survey of models of physics beyond the Standard Model which predict resonances, and discuss some of the LHC observables which we can use to discover and identify the nature of the BSM physics. I finish up with a discussion of the linear moose that one can use for an effective theory description of a massive color octet vector particle. C1 [Tait, Tim M.

The spectrum and interactions of these 'KK particles' depend on the boundary conditions and metric. If all fields propagate in a compact dimension with flat metric (referred to as a universal extra dimension), then the KK masses may be below the TeV scale, the lightest KK particle is a dark matter candidate, and the collider signals include cascade decays involving leptons, jets and missing energy, as well as narrow resonances. If the metric is warped, then the hierarchy between the electroweak and Plank scales is natural, while the collider signals involve heavy resonances. Field theories in extra dimensions are strongly coupled in the ultraviolet, so that their study could shed light on nonperturbative phenomena, with possible applications to dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking and compositeness.

The BAT T-90 duration peaks at 70 s. We confirm that the spectra of the BAT short-duration GRBs are generally harder than those of the long-duration GRBs. The observed durations of the BAT high redshift GRBs are not systematically longer than those of the moderate redshift GRBs.

Detection of these explosions could directly constrain the primordial IMF for the first time, which is key to the formation of the first galaxies, early cosmological reionization, and the chemical enrichment of the primeval IGM. We present radiation hydrodynamical calculations of Pop III PISN light curves and spectra performed with the RAGE code. We find that the initial radiation pulse due to shock breakout from the surface of the star, although attenuated by the Lyman-alpha forest, will still be visible by JWST at z similar to 10 - 15, and possibly out to z similar to 20 with strong gravitational lensing. We have also studied metal mixing at early stages of the explosion prior to breakout from the surface of the star with the CASTRO AMR code and find vigorous mixing in primordial core-collapse explosions but very little in PISNe. This implies that the key to determining progenitor masses of the first cosmic explosions is early spectroscopy just after shock breakout, and that multidimensional mixing is crucial to accurate low-mass Pop III SNe light curves and spectra.

This model is tested and its features constrained using afterglow observations at radio, optical, X-ray, and GeV photon energies. Modeling of the afterglow broadband emission allows the determination of the outflow's physical parameters, such as collimation and energetics, circum-burst medium density, its radial stratification, and of forward-shock microphysical parameters. The slowly-decaying radio afterglows (weeks after trigger) and the fast-decaying early optical afterglows (up to 1 ks) provide evidence for a temporary contribution from the reverse-shock. The chromatic X-ray light-curve breaks and the afterglows with well-coupled optical and X-ray light-curves and chromatic breaks suggest the existence of an outflow inner to the blast-wave, which bulk-scatters the forward-shock emission and injects energy into it.

The Ultra-Fast Flash Observatory (UFFO) aims to cut this response time to similar to 10 milliseconds after the burst position is known. While SWIFT UV-optical light curves revealed complexity in decay, observations of the rise phase have been less systematically explored, leaving a new and likely rich field of inquiry unexplored.

The origins of this contrast and the efficacy of SCM as a tool to identify band bending at grain boundaries in pc-Si and mc-Si are discussed. Contrast at these grain boundaries could be influenced by different oxide growth rates or by defect states at the oxide interface. In order to determine the influence of such mechanisms on the SCM signal, such effects must be modeled; we show that a simple one-dimensional model agrees well with more detailed models of SCM signal strength and indicates, for example, that very small changes in oxide thickness measurably affect the SCM signal. In our experimental data, the uniformity and quality of the oxide layer are confirmed, and increased contrast consistent with depletion regions is still observed at higher order grain boundaries as identified by electron backscattering diffraction, including Sigma 9 and Sigma 27a. Scans of the SCM signal as a function of dc probe voltage allow such regions to be more quantitatively investigated. C1 [Heath, Jennifer T.] Linfield Coll, Dept Phys, Mcminnville, OR 97128 USA.

Using additional junctions could lead to efficiencies above 50%, but require the development of a wide bandgap (2.0-2.2eV) material to act as the top layer. In this work we demonstrate wide bandgap InyGa1-yP grown on GaAsxP1-x via solid source molecular beam epitaxy. Unoptimized tensile GaAsxP1-x buffers grown on GaAs exhibit asymmetric strain relaxation, along with formation of faceted trenches 100-300 nm deep in the [01-1] direction. Smaller grading step size and higher substrate temperatures minimizes the facet trench density and results in symmetric strain relaxation. In comparison, compressively-strained graded GaAsxP1-x buffers on GaP show nearly-complete strain relaxation of the top layers and no evidence of trenches. We subsequently grew InyGa1-yP layers on the GaAsxP1-x buffers. Photoluminescence and transmission electron microscopy measurements show no indication of phase separation or CuPt ordering. Taken in combination with the low threading dislocation densities obtained, MBE-grown InyGa1-yP layers are promising candidates for future use as the top junction of a multi-junction solar cell.

This paper reports theoretical study of the effects of the back contact material, Sb2Te3, on the performance of the CdTe solar cells. First-principles calculations show that Sb impurities in p-type CdTe are donors and can diffuse with low diffusion barrier. There properties are clearly detrimental to the solar cell performance. The Sb segregation into the grain boundaries may be required to explain the good efficiencies for the CdTe solar cells with Sb2Te3 back contacts.

A series of experiments run on a laboratory-scale reverse osmosis membrane system examined the fouling of membranes when the feed water was spiked with organic and inorganic foulants. Alginic acid was used as the organic foulant and silica was used as the inorganic foulant. Studies involving interactions of these two foulants have not previously been reported in literature. Experiments were run with each foulant individually to characterize fouling at different velocities and pressures. Experiments were then run using both foulants together to characterize the synergistic effects on membrane fouling. One set of experiments with both foulants demonstrated that alginic acid inhibits silica fouling on reverse osmosis membranes. Further experiments indicated that alginic acid added after silica fouling had already occurred was able to remove silica scale from the membrane and restore permeate flux. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V.

The APECS system combines process simulation with multiphysics-based equipment simulations, such as those based on computational fluid dynamics. These co-simulation capabilities enable design engineers to optimize overall process performance with respect to complex thermal and fluid flow phenomena arising in key plant equipment items. This paper also highlights ongoing co-simulation R&D activities in areas such as reduced order modeling, knowledge management, stochastic analysis and optimization, and virtual plant co-simulation. Continued progress in co-simulation technology-through improved integration, solution, deployment, and analysis - will have profound positive impacts on the design and optimization of high-efficiency, near-zero emission fossil energy systems.

The vision for the "hydrogen economy" is a proposed solution that is based on the application of sustainable energy sources to split water. However, many technical and infrastructure challenges remain for hydrogen that do not exist for hydrocarbon fuels. Integrating CO2 capture and conversion into liquid fuels produces a new vision that promises the benefits of hydrogen while preserving many of the advantages of the hydrocarbon economy. In this paper, we study the production of methanol from H-2/CO2 and H2O/CO mixtures. We present two alternative processes which are based on the combined action of two reversible reactions: water gas shift (WGS) and methanol synthesis (MS) on a Cu/ZnO/AlO3 catalyst. Detailed flowsheet simulations and economic evaluations under multiple scenarios indicate that both processes can be economically feasible in the near future, while having energy efficiencies which are significantly better than their biological counterpart. Finally, the conversion and energy efficiency of both processes are better than previously proposed designs such as the so called CAMERE process.

These techniques have been employed in various areas, including the design of solvents, refrigerants, and polymers. This paper presents a mixed-integer non-linear program (MINLP) for designing a secondary refrigerant. Secondary refrigeration loops have recently been recognized as a potential solution to reduce the environmental impact of retail food refrigeration. The MINLP model adopted here includes a property prediction model (Nanda, 2001) coupled with molecular structure feasibility constraints (Sahinidis et al., 2003). A large number of basic building groups are considered and no limits on the type of the molecule are imposed. To cope with the numerical challenges associated with nonlinearities of this model, a direct enumeration of the search space is used to solve the model for restricted molecular sizes, while a branch-and-bound algorithm is used for larger designs. Several novel solutions are obtained and analyzed in detail. We also explore the possibility of using accurate property models (Marrero and Gani, 2001) for different applications. The use of higher order property estimation, which is structure dependent, is also investigated.

For magnetometer systems, the most significant improvements include development of denser magnetometer arrays and vertical gradiometer configurations. In prototype analyses and recent Environmental Security Technology Certification Program (ESTCP) assessments using new production systems the greatest sensitivity has been achieved with a vertical gradiometer configuration, despite model-based survey design results which suggest that dense total-field arrays would be superior. As effective as magnetometer systems have proven to be at many sites, they are inadequate at sites where basalts and other ferrous geologic formations or soils produce anomalies that approach or exceed those of target ordnance items. Additionally, magnetometer systems are ineffective where detection of non-ferrous ordnance items is of primary concern. Recent completion of the Battelle TEM-8 airborne time-domain electromagnetic system represents the culmination of nearly nine years of assessment and development of airborne electromagnetic systems for UXO mapping and detection. A recent ESTCP demonstration of this system in New Mexico showed that it was able to detect 99% of blind-seeded ordnance items, 81mm and larger, and that it could be used to map in detail a bombing target on a basalt flow where previous airborne magnetometer surveys had failed. The probability of detection for the TEM-8 in the blind-seeded study area was better than that reported for a dense-array total-field magnetometer demonstration of the same blind-seeded site, and the TEM-8 system successfully detected these items with less than half as many anomaly picks as the dense-array total-field magnetometer system. Overall, improvements in airborne geophysical systems over the past ten years have led to the capability of detecting smaller ordnance with fewer false positives. These trends should continue as more technological advances are made. C1 [Doll, William E.; Bell, David T.; Gamey, T.

As part of CMMAD, multiple instances of semi autonomous robotic mine detection systems were created. Each instance consists of a robotic vehicle equipped with sensors required for navigation and marking, countermine sensors and a number of integrated software packages which provide for real time processing of the countermine sensor data as well as integrated control of the robotic vehicle, the sensor actuator and the sensor. These systems were used to investigate critical interest functions (CIF) related to countermine robotic systems. To address the autonomy CIF, the INL developed RIK was extended to allow for interaction with a mine sensor processing code (MSPC). In limited field testing this system performed well in detecting, marking and avoiding both AT and AP mines. Based on the results of the CMMAD investigation we conclude that autonomous robotic mine detection is feasible. In addition, CMMAD contributed critical technical advances with regard to sensing, data processing and sensor manipulation, which will advance the performance of future fieldable systems. As a result, no substantial technical barriers exist which preclude - from an autonomous robotic perspective - the rapid development and deployment of fieldable systems.

Mathematical models play a key role in all aspects of CO2 geologic storage, including site characterization, injection design, and performance monitoring and confirmation. The main challenges for modeling arise from couplings between different processes and the large range of space and time scales that must be considered. This chapter provides a broad perspective of modeling issues in the context of an evolving regulatory environment. Proceeding from large-scale to small, we review model applications to fluid pressurization and brine displacement, the long-term fate of injected CO2, and issues of potential CO2 leakage along faults, fracture zones, and improperly abandoned wells. Selected references offer readers a more in-depth pursuit of the issues addressed in this chapter.

Presently, the soil depth data available in national soil databases (STATSGO, SSURGO) is provided as averages within generalized map units. Spatial uncertainty within these units limits their applicability for spatially distributed modeling. This work reports a statistical model for prediction of soil depth in a semi-arid mountainous watershed that is based upon topographic and other landscape attributes. Soil depth was surveyed by driving a rod into the ground until refusal at geo-referenced locations selected to represent the range of topographic and land cover variations in Dry Creek Experimental Watershed, Boise, Idaho, USA. The soil depth survey consisted of a model calibration set, measured at 819 locations over 8 sub-watersheds, and a model testing set, measured at 130 locations randomly distributed over the remainder of the watershed. Topographic attributes were derived from a Digital Elevation Model. Land cover attributes were derived from Landsat TM remote sensing images and high resolution aerial photographs. A Generalized Additive Model was developed to predict soil depth over the watershed from these attributes. This model explained about 50% of the soil depth spatial variation and is an important improvement towards solving the need in distributed modeling for distributed soil depth input data.

TI Coloring Geographical Threshold Graphs SO DISCRETE MATHEMATICS AND THEORETICAL COMPUTER SCIENCE LA English DT Article DE Geographical threshold graphs; random geometric graphs; chromatic number; coloring algorithm ID RANDOM GEOMETRIC GRAPHS AB We propose a coloring algorithm for sparse random graphs generated by the geographical threshold graph (GTG) model, a generalization of random geometric graphs (RGG). In a GTG, nodes are distributed in a Euclidean space, and edges are assigned according to a threshold function involving the distance between nodes as well as randomly chosen node weights. The motivation for analyzing this model is that many real networks (e. g., wireless networks, the Internet, etc.) need to be studied by using a "richer" stochastic model (which in this case includes both a distance between nodes and weights on the nodes). Here, we analyze the GTG coloring algorithm together with the graph's clique number, showing formally that in spite of the differences in structure between GTG and RGG, the asymptotic behavior of the chromatic number is identical: chi = ln n/ln ln n(1 +o(1)). Finally, we consider the leading corrections to this expression, again using the coloring algorithm and clique number to provide bounds on the chromatic number. We show that the gap between the lower and upper bound is within C ln n/(ln ln n)(2), and specify the constant C. C1 [Bradonjic, Milan] Los Alamos Natl Lab, Div Theoret, Los Alamos, NM 87545 USA.

It has become increasingly clear that many of the most important human diseases arise as the result of a complex interplay between several factors including environmental factors, such as exposure to toxins or pathogens, diet, lifestyle, and the genetics of the individual patient. Recent research has begun to describe these factors in the context of networks which describe relationships between biological components, such as genes, proteins and metabolites, and have made progress towards the understanding of disease as a dysfunction of the entire system, rather than, for example, mutations in single genes. We provide a summary of some of the recent work in this area, focusing on how the integration of different kinds of complementary data, and analysis of biological networks and pathways can lead to discovery of robust, specific and useful biomarkers of disease and how these methods can help shed light on the mechanisms and etiology of the diseases being studied.

The event data processing on the Grid requires scalable access to nonevent data (detector conditions, calibrations, etc.) stored in relational databases. The database-resident data are critical for the event data reconstruction processing steps and often required for physics analysis. This paper reviews LHC experience with database technologies for the Grid computing. List of topics includes: database integration with Grid computing models of the LHC experiments; choice of database technologies; examples of database interfaces; distributed database applications (data complexity, update frequency, data volumes and access patterns); scalability of database access in the Grid computing environment of the LHC experiments.

Given a set of subscribers and one or more access points possessing directional antennas, we formalize the problem of orienting these antennas in two fundamental settings: (i) subscriber-centric, where the objective is to fairly allocate bandwidth among the subscribers and (ii) provider-centric, where the objective is to maximize the revenue generated by satisfying the bandwidth requirements of subscribers. For both the problems, we first design algorithms for a network with only one access point working under the assumption that the number of antennas does not exceed the number of non-interfering channels. Using the well-regarded lexicographic max-min fair allocation as the objective for a subscriber-centric network, we present an optimum dynamic programming algorithm. For a provider-centric network, the allocation problem turns out to be NP-hard. We present a greedy heuristic based algorithm that guarantees almost half of the optimum revenue. We later enhance both these algorithms to operate in more general networks with multiple access points and no restrictions on the relative numbers of antennas and channels. A simulation-based evaluation using OPNET demonstrates the efficacy of our approaches and provides us further in insights into these problems.

Tables is a spreadsheet inspired programming environment that enables rapid development of complex applications by a wide range of users. Tables emphasizes ease-of-use by employing spreadsheet abstractions, including pivot tables and data-driven functions. Using these tools, users are able to construct applications that incorporate local and collective computation and communication. We evaluate the design and implementation of Tables on the TelosB platform, and show how Tables can be used to construct data monitoring, classification, and object tracking applications. We discuss the relative computation, memory, and network overhead imposed by the Tables environment. With this evaluation, we show that the Tables programming environment represents a feasible alternative to existing programming systems.

Supraclincal drug levels have been required to study drug-DNA adducts because of the lack of sensitivity associated with many of the techniques employed, including liquid scintillation counting of radiolabeled drug. The use of accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS) has provided the first direct evidence of Adriamycin-DNA adduct formation in cells at clinically relevant Adriamycin concentrations. The exceedingly sensitive nature of AMS has enabled over three orders of magnitude increased sensitivity of Adriamycin-DNA adduct detection (compared to liquid scintillation counting) and has revealed adduct formation within an hour of drug treatment. The rigorous protocol required for this approach, together with many notes on the precautions and procedures required in order to ensure that absolute levels of Adriamycin-DNA adducts can be determined with good reproducibility, is outlined in this chapter.

The working fluid is a mixture of water and glycerin with relative mass percentages varying from 0 to 100%, which spans a viscosity range of three orders of magnitude. First, a criterion that separates oono and ooffo for splashing as a function of glycerin percentage is expressed in terms of both Weber and Reynolds numbers and its highly nonlinear behavior is a function of the change in fluid viscosity. Next, the complex splashing characteristics of a rather simple monodisperse spray injected at a pressure of 2 bars onto a flat, 2-mm-diameter aluminum cylindrical rod are examined. Spatial variations in the fraction of splashed liquid, Sauter mean diameter, splashed droplet size distribution, and splash volume fraction as a function of radial distance for these mixtures are reported.

Of particular importance is the understanding of rate effects at the extremely high rates encountered in those experiments, especially with the next generation of laser drives such as at the National Ignition Facility. Here we use large-scale molecular dynamics (MD) simulations of the high-rate deformation of nanocrystalline tantalum to investigate the processes associated with plastic deformation for strains up to 100%. We use initial atomic configurations that were produced through simulations of solidification in the work of Streitz et al [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, (2006) 225701]. These 3D polycrystalline systems have typical grain sizes of 10-20 nm. We also study a rapidly quenched liquid (amorphous solid) tantalum. We apply a constant volume (isochoric), constant temperature (isothermal) shear deformation over a range of strain rates, and compute the resulting stress-strain curves to large strains for both uniaxial and biaxial compression. We study the rate dependence and identify plastic deformation mechanisms. The identification of the mechanisms is facilitated through a novel technique that computes the local grain orientation, returning it as a quaternion for each atom. This analysis technique is robust and fast, and has been used to compute the orientations on the fly during our parallel MD simulations on supercomputers. We find both dislocation and twinning processes are important, and they interact in the weak strain hardening in these extremely fine-grained microstructures.

It is based on a parallel MonteCarlo algorithm that places the impurities according to the local chemical potential for the species, following the thermodynamic driving force for segregation. This technique is combined with molecular dynamics techniques to study the role played by Fe impurities in the properties of nanocrystalline Cu grain boundary properties. The impurities were found to improve microstructural stability as studied by high temperature annealing simulations, and grain boundary cohesion as studied via spall resistance high stresses produced by simulated laser irradiation. Virtual tensile tests of samples with and without impurities revealed that the impurities did not affect the high flow stress typical of nanostructured material. We interpret these results in terms of impurity dragging and grain boundary sliding. C1 [Caro, A.; Bringa, E. M.; Gilmer, G. H.; Zepeda-Ruiz, L.

An experimental-theoretical approach is employed to assess their relative contributions through measurement and calculation of texture evolution. A new multi-scale constitutive model, incorporating thermally activated dislocation density based hardening, is shown to effectively predict texture evolution as a function of processing route, number of passes (up to four), initial texture, pressing rate, and processing temperature. Texture predictions are shown to be in very good agreement with experimental measurements. Also, it is found that the two most active deformation modes in Be are basal slip and prismatic slip, where the predominant one is interestingly found to depend on die angle. Deformation in Zr during the first pass is predicted to be accommodated not only by its easiest mode, prismatic slip, but by basal slip and tensile twinning. C1 [Beyerlein, I.

BE Zhao, Y Liao, X TI Ultrahigh Strength and Ductility of Cu-Nb Nanolayered Composites SO DUCTILITY OF BULK NANOSTRUCTURED MATERIALS SE Materials Science Forum LA English DT Article; Book Chapter DE nanocomposite; micropillar compression; mechanical behavior; ductility; strength ID MECHANICAL-PROPERTIES; FCC METALS; NANOCRYSTALLINE; DISLOCATIONS; MULTILAYERS; PLASTICITY; INTERFACES; SCALE AB In recent years, the high strength of nanomaterials has gathered much interest in the materials community. Nanomaterials (polycrystalline and composites) have already been used, largely by the semiconductor community, as critical length scales for chip design have decreased to tens of nanometers. However, to ensure reliability of nanomaterials, the mechanisms underlying their structural integrity must be well understood. For these materials to be put into service, not only should their strength be considered, but also ductility, toughness, formability, and fatigue resistance. While some progress has been made into constructing models for the deformation mechanisms governing these behaviors, the body of experimental knowledge is still limited, especially for length scales below 10 nanometers. The results described here show stress-strain curves for nanolaminate composites with individual layer thickness of 40 nm and 5 nm. Nanolaminate composites fabricated via magnetron sputtering comprised of alternating 5 nm thick Cu and Nb multilayers (two relatively soft metals) exhibit strengths on par with hardened tool steel and deformability in compression in excess of 25% [1]. The deformability of nanoscale composites is found to be limited by the onset of geometric instability. C1 [Mara, N. A.; Dickerson, P.; Hoagland, R.

These characteristics pose challenges in experiment design to obtain the dynamic properties of soft materials at high rates of loading. The low wave speeds delay the stress equilibrium in the specimen. Low strength and stiffness require highly sensitive load detection system. Low strength also makes inertia effects significant. This chapter illustrates these challenges as they are encountered in high-rate experiments using Kolsky bars. Experimental solutions designed to overcome these difficulties are then introduced and demonstrated. C1 [Chen, Weinong W.] Purdue Univ, W Lafayette, IN 47907 USA.

The regional-scale effects of bioenergy choices on ecosystem services need special attention because they often have been neglected yet can affect the ecological, social, and economic aspects of sustainability. A regional-scale perspective provides the opportunity to maximize ecosystem services, particularly with regard to water quality and quantity issues, and also to consider other aspects of ecological, social, and economic sustainability. We give special attention to cellulosic feedstocks because of the opportunities they provide. C1 [Dale, Virginia H.; Mulholland, Patrick] Oak Ridge Natl Lab, Oak Ridge, TN 37831 USA.

The greater depth of our understanding of physical phenomena and the need to predict the behavior of complex devices demands a level of analysis that purely mathematical methods cannot meet. Monte Carlo methods offer some of the most powerful approaches to computation. They permit a simple transcription of a random process into a computer code. Alternatively, they give the only accurate approach to the many-dimensional problems of theoretical physics. I will describe a number of complementary approaches for Monte Carlo methods in treating diverse systems. C1 Lawrence Livermore Natl Lab, Livermore, CA 94551 USA.

Therefore, the process by which such information is produced and ultimately used is of critical interest to the nuclear science community. This paper provides an overview of various contemporary methods employed to generate evaluated cross sections and related physical quantities such as particle emission angular distributions and energy spectra. The emphasis here is on data associated with neutron induced reaction processes, with consideration of the uncertainties in these data, and on the more recent evaluation methods, e.g., those that are based on stochastic (Monte Carlo) techniques. There is no unique way to perform such evaluations, nor are nuclear data evaluators united in their opinions as to which methods are superior to the others in various circumstances. In some cases it is not critical which approaches are used as long as there is consistency and proper use is made of the available physical information. However, in other instances there are definite advantages to using particular methods as opposed to other options. Some of these distinctions are discussed in this paper and suggestions are offered regarding fruitful areas for future research in the development of evaluation methodology.

Muljadi, Eduard TI Doubly Fed Induction Generator Maximum Wind Power Extraction Study Through Integrated Steady-state and Close-loop Control Evaluation SO ELECTRIC POWER COMPONENTS AND SYSTEMS LA English DT Article DE wind power; doubly fed induction generator; d-q vector control; generator characteristics; extracted wind power characteristics; maximum power extraction ID ENERGY GENERATION; SYSTEMS; OPTIMIZATION; PERFORMANCE; TURBINES; DFIG AB A doubly fed induction generator wind turbine is a variable-speed wind turbine widely used in the modern wind power industry. Unlike a fixed-speed wind turbine, the maximum power extraction of the turbine is affected by (1) electrical characteristics of the generator, (2) aerodynamic characteristics of the turbine blades, and (3) maximum power extraction control strategies. This article presents a doubly fed induction generator maximum power extraction study through the integrated steady-state and transient close-loop control evaluation approach so as to benefit the development of enhanced peak power tracking control techniques for variable-speed wind turbines. The generator characteristics are examined for different d-q control conditions; the peak power tracking and extracted wind power characteristics of the turbine blades versus generator slip are presented. Then, all three characteristics are analyzed in a joint environment to investigate doubly fed induction generator maximum power extraction principles. A nested current- and speed-loop control structure is developed using the stator-flux-oriented frame, which is then used to evaluate factors that may affect doubly fed induction generator peak power tracking control performance. Simulation studies are conducted to investigate how doubly fed induction generator maximum power extraction is influenced by wind turbine electrical and aerodynamic characteristics, different peak power tracking control designs, and variable and gusting winds.

Two lithium borate cluster salts are reported to function as both the main salt for a nonaqueous electrolyte and the redox shuttle for overcharge protection. Lithium borate cluster salts with a tunable redox potential are promising candidates for overcharge protection for most positive electrodes in state-of-the-art lithium-ion cells.

With the addition of 1-3 wt % LTFOP to MCMB/NCM cells, the capacity retention after 200 cycles at 55 degrees C significantly improved. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy showed that the LTFOP addition in the electrolyte increased the initial impedance but lowered the impedance growth rate during cycling. Aging tests at 55 degrees C indicated that the capacity retention of the negative electrode significantly benefited as a result of the LTFOP addition. Differential scanning calorimetry showed that the safety of the lithiated MCMB is significantly improved with the LTFOP addition. (C) 2009 The Electrochemical Society.

Cyclohexasilane (Si6H12) was admixed with poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) in toluene giving an ink that was electrospun into the Si6H12/PPMA wires with diameters of 50-2000 nm. Raman spectroscopy revealed that thermal treatment at 350 degrees C transforms this deposit into a-SiNWs. These materials were coated with a thin carbon layer and then tested as half-cells where a reasonable plateau in electrochemical cycling was observed after an initial capacity fade. Additionally, porous a-SiNWs were realized when the thermally decomposable binder polypropylene carbonate/polycyclohexene carbonate was used as the polymer carrier.

A small amount (<10 wt %) of crown ethers reduces battery performance, and a minimum discharge capacity appears at ca. 5 wt % of crown ether in the electrolytes. When the content increases to 15 wt %, both 12-crown-4 and 15-crown-5 improve the capacity of Li/air cells by about 28% and 16%, respectively. The 15-crown-5-based electrolytes even show a maximum discharge capacity in the crown ether content range of 10-15 wt %. However, increasing the amount of 18-crown-6 in the electrolytes continuously lowers the cell performance. (C) 2010 The Electrochemical Society. [DOI: 10.1149/1.3305330] All rights reserved.

TI SOFC Ohmic Resistance Reduction by HCl-Induced Removal of Manganese at the Anode/Electrolyte Interface SO ELECTROCHEMICAL AND SOLID STATE LETTERS LA English DT Article ID YTTRIA-STABILIZED ZIRCONIA; OXIDE FUEL-CELLS; COAL SYNGAS; CONDUCTIVITY; PERFORMANCE; ANODES; GAS; CONTAMINANTS; ELECTROLYTE; ZRO2 AB The ohmic resistance of anode-supported solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs) having a manganese-based cathode was lowered when operated in synthetic coal gas containing hydrogen chloride. This effect was not observed for cells with cathodes that did not contain manganese. Substantial amounts of Mn were found throughout the grain boundaries of the 8 mol % yttria-stabilized zirconia electrolyte. Exposure to HCl partially removed Mn near the anode/electrolyte interface, presumably by volatilization as MnCl(2)(g). This work suggests that one of the underlying causes of the higher than expected electrolyte resistance in anode-supported SOFCs involves the formation of a Mn-containing insulating layer at grain boundaries.

The powder was heat-treated at 300, 400, 500, and 600 degrees C in air. The structural properties were measured with X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction. and Raman spectroscopy. Thin-film electrodes of the powder were made by ultrasonic spray deposition onto conducting substrates. The photocurrent was measured at wavelengths greater than 400 nm as the voltage was scanned from 0.2 to 1.8 V in an aqueous environment. A correlation was seen between the photocurrent and dye decomposition and the results were most favorable for the monoclinic (I) gamma-phase of WO3. (C) 2010 The Electrochemical Society.

The ACNT-MEAs also showed a significantly higher stability in conductivity and corrosion resistance than that of the reference during an accelerated aging test through potential cycling, which can be attributed to the vertical alignment and high graphiticity of the carbon nanotubes.
