We investigate the effects of anthropogenic and biogenic sources on tropospheric CO enhancements and outflow over North America and the Atlantic during July-August 2006, the 3 rd warmest summer on record. The analysis is performed using the 3D Regional chEmical trAnsport Model (REAM), satellite data from TES on the Aura satellite, MOPITT on the Terra satellite and surface monitor data from the ...

In this paper, development of a semi-two- dimensional mathematical model called SDAR is introduced. The model is composed of two principal modules of hydraulics and sediment transport. The newly developed SDAR model has a number of capabilities including determination of sediment transport rate, aggradation - degradation&#10calculation, longitudinal profile and lateral cross–sectional variation...

The combination of low anthropogenic emissions and large biogenic sources that characterizes the Southern Hemisphere (SH) leads to significant differences in atmospheric composition relative to the better studied Northern Hemisphere. This unique balance of sources poses significant challenges for global models. Carbon monoxide (CO) in particular is difficult to simulate in the SH due to the inc...

Oxygen is an essential part of the living organism. It is transported from blood to the body tissue by the systematic circulation and large part of it is stored in the blood flowing in capillaries. In this work we discuss a mathematical model for oxygen transport in tissues. The governing equations are established assuming that the blood is flowing along a co-axial cylindrical capillary inside ...

an alumina supported co/ni catalyst was prepared by sol-gel procedure to study the catalytic behavior during fischer-tropsch synthesis in a fixed-bed reactor. the effect of co conversion (10-50%) on hydrocarbon product distribution (ch4, c5+ and c2-c4 olefin selectivities) was studied. selectivity for ch4 decreased, while those of c5+ and olefin selectivities increased with increasing co conver...

[1] The direct and semidirect effects of aerosols produced by Indonesian biomass burning (BB) during August–November 2006 on tropical dynamics have been examined using NASA’s Goddard Earth Observing System, version 5, (GEOS‐5) atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM). Simulations were driven by two sets of aerosol forcing fields calculated offline by a separate aerosol transport model, one ...

Microelectrode and tracer techniques were used to test for possible amino acid-H(+) co-transport in coleoptiles of Avena sativa L. cv. "Garry." The amino acid analogue alpha-aminoisobutyric acid (AIB) caused transient depolarization of the membrane potential. The absolute magnitude of the maximum depolarization was affected by the same factors that affected AIB transport. Both increased with hi...

in this paper, the turbulent air droplet flow inside a single passage of a curved type vane separator has been studied numerically. the simulation is based on the eulerian - lagrangian method. for turbulent air flow calculations, a computer code was developed to solve the reynolds averaged navier stokes (rans) equations together with the equations of reynolds stress transport model (rstm) on co...

abstract microbial contaminants transport to groundwater is a serious environmental problem that can result in large outbreaks of waterborne diseases. some of bacteria can travel from vadose zone and cause contamination of groundwater resources. thus, an accurate prediction of transport and fate of pathogenic microorganisms in unsaturated soil is needed to protect groundwater resources. the mai...
