The unexpected and prolonged persistence of warm conditions over the tropical Pacific during the early 1990s can be attributed to an interdecadal climate fluctuation that involves changes in the properties of the equatorial thermocline arising as a result of an influx of water with anomalous temperatures from higher latitudes. The influx affects equatorial sea-surface temperatures and hence the...

Abstract Calculation of water influx into petroleum reservoir is a tedious evaluation with significant engineering applications. The classical approach developed by van Everdingen–Hurst (vEH) based on diffusivity equation solution had been the fulcrum for calculation in both finite and infinite-acting aquifers. vEH model edge-water drive reservoirs was modified Allard Chen bottom-water reservoi...

Water exchanges between rabbit erythrocytes and extracellular solutions equidistant from intracellular osmolarity were studied by freezing point depression techniques. Water efflux was always less than water influx and both were hypotonic to the intracellular and extracellular fluids. The magnitudes of these water exchanges were not dependent on the presence of extracellular cation. Stimulation...

A micropotometric device previously described by the writer was used to determine quantitatively the velocity of water influx in cubic microns per square micron of hair surface per minute of comparatively older and younger root hairs of radish seedlings in a humid atmosphere at 29 degrees +/- 1 degrees C. when the micropotometers were filled with Hoagland solution at pH 6.8. In each experiment,...

Transport of Na+ and its relationship with membrane potential (delta psi m) was examined in Anabaena L-31 (a fresh water cyanobacterium) and Anabaena torulosa (a brackish water cyanobacterium) which require Na+ for diazotrophic growth. The data on the effect of N,N'-dicyclohexylcarbodiimide indicated that delta psi m was generated by electrogenic proton extrusion predominantly mediated by ATPas...

Radiotracer techniques were used to measure influx and efflux rates of Ca2+ in freshwater-adapted Oreochromis mossambicus. The influx rate of Ca2+ is related to body weight (W) as Fin = 50W0.805 nmol Ca2+/h. For a 20-g fish the calculated influx rate was 558 nmol Ca2+/h, and this was attributed largely to extraintestinal uptake since the drinking rate was estimated to be only 28 microliter wate...

Clarifying the water invasion rule of edge and bottom reservoirs can adjust reservoir development mode improve recovery factor in a timely manner. Influenced by size body, energy intensity seepage capacity, change model influx basically belongs to exponential growth GM (1,1) or self-constraint logistic model. The above two models are used predict analyze inflow reservoirs, respectively, it is f...
