We present 21-cm H i line and 408 MHz and 1.4 GHz continuum observations of the Magellanic dwarf galaxy UGCA 86, made with the DRAO synthesis telescope. UGCA 86 is detected in the continuum at both frequencies, with 408 MHz flux density S 408 = 120 ± 30 mJy and 1.4 GHz flux density S 1400 = 79 ± 3 mJy. The H i structure of UGCA 86 is complex, with two separate components: a rotating disk and a ...

[1] A new magnetic map of the Moon, based on Lunar Prospector magnetometer observations, sheds light on the origin of the South Pole-Aitken basin (SPA), the largest and oldest of the recognized lunar basins. A set of WNW-trending linear to arcuate magnetic features, evident in both the radial and scalar observations, covers much of a 1000 km wide region centered on the NW portion of SPA. The so...

[1] The volcanic eruption on Miyakejima, Japan, in 2000 was marked by the largest earthquake swarm ever recorded in Japan, a seismicity migration accompanying a dike intrusion as the dike propagated from Miyakejima to the northwest, and formation of a caldera on Mount Oyama on Miyakejima. In this study, we propose a seismic source model which can be used to model both seismic and geodetic displ...

The formation and evolution of agricultural land uses in the Zhujiang Delta of South China are examined in the light of the dynamics of people and the environment and their interplay. The origin and propagation of agriculture are found to have a close relationship with the climate and sea level changes in the Holocene era. The development of rice cultivation, horticulture, and dike-pond system ...

Three-dimensional numerical simulations of a flow past non-submerged diversion dike are performed for various blockage ratios (1/6 ≤ β 1/3) and Froude numbers (0.152 Fr 0.253). The instantaneous time-averaged characteristics, the evolution process mixing layers, bed shear stress analyzed. ratio plays an important role in momentum redistribution turbulent kinetic energy dike. As increases, veloc...

A depth-averaged 2-D model has been developed for simulating coastal barrier breaching processes. The model solves the generalized shallow water equations and the non-equilibrium sediment transport and bed change equations in a coupled fashion using an explicit finite volume method on a rectangular grid. It considers interactions among transient flow, strong sediment transport, and rapid bed ch...

Titanium-rich clinohumite and layered structure minerals are observed in kimberlite and as inclusions in pyropic garnets from the Moses Rock dike, a kimberlite-bearing breccia dike in San Juan County, Utah. Associated clinopyroxenes observed as inclusions within similar pyropes and also in kimberlite are estimated to have equilibrated at depths ranging from about 50 to 150 km at modest temperat...

Minimization differences on Cellular Automata approach to predict new inundated area of hot mudflow on LUSI mud eruption disaster which occurred in Sidoarjo area is proposed. There are three characteristics of hot mudflow that is unique such as sur face material changes rapidly, surface temperature changes quickly and dike is constructed to avoid spill over. There are penetrations of hot mudflo...

Although the source layer for marine magnetic anomalies has been assumed to be the extrusive basalts of uppermost ocean crust, recent studies indicate that lower crustal rocks may also contribute. Because the temperature at which magnetization of crustal rocks achieves long-term stability is crucial to any source layer contribution, we undertook hightemperature VRM (viscous remanent magnetizati...

of chenodeoxycholic acid, with small amounts of lithocholic acid present as well. Spur cells manifested a striking increase in cholesterol content and in the cholesterol: phospholipid ratio, but a normal osmotic fragility. When incubated in heated normal serum, spur cells lost their excess cholesterol and became spherocytic and osmotically fragile. Conversely, sera from patients with spur cells...
