Trends in the annual flux of sulfate and nitrate in a new ice core collected at an elevation of 3017 m on Eclipse Icefield, 45 km northeast of Mt. Logan were examined to determine the effect of anthropogenic activity on precipitation chemistry in the remote northwest North American midtroposphere. The annual flux of both sulfate and nitrate at Eclipse began increasing in the 1940s, demonstratin...

The Kieker framework offers features to monitor and to analyse the runtime behaviour of software systems. In this paper, we propose an associated Eclipse plugin to ease the usage of Kieker for novice users and to enable the profiling in the Eclipse environment. The monitoring part of the plug-in enables the automatic integration and configuration of the monitoring via an integrated UI. In this ...

Mueller, Frank. M.S., Purdue University, May, 2004. Penumbra: Enhancing Eclipse for Introductory Programming. Major Professor: Antony L. Hosking. In recent years, Java has become the most popular programming language for introductory programming courses; however, there has been a lack of a good Java development environment for novice computer science students. We decided to adapt Eclipse for te...

Eclipse is an open and extensible integrated development environment that allows third-party developers to integrate their plug-ins (tools) deeply with features shipped with the environment. Building a plug-in requires a developer to use Eclipse as a framework, extending and implementing classes in the Eclipse API, and calling appropriate methods on Eclipse objects using appropriate protocols. ...

This paper describes the design, construction, and performance analysis of the Eclipse, a redundantly actuated six-degree-of-freedom parallel mechanism intended for rapid machining. The Eclipse is a compact mechanism capable of performing five-face machining in a single setup while retaining the advantages of high stiffness and high accuracy characteristic of parallel mechanisms. We compare num...

The variability of ultraviolet and photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) during the total solar eclipse of 29 March 2006 was examined in this study. The measurements from NILU-UV multichannel radiometers at 7 stations of the Greek UV Network were used, where the maximum eclipse percentage ranged from 73.1% to 94.8%. In addition, an extra instrument was established at a remote Greek island, ...

OBJECTIVE Analytical dose calculation algorithms for Eclipse and Raystation treatment planning systems (TPS), as well as a Raystation Monte Carlo model are compared to corresponding measured point doses. METHOD The TPS were modeled with the same beam data acquired during commissioning. Thirty-five typical plans were made with each planning system, 31 without range shifter and four with a 5 cm...

[1] Trends and sources of lead (Pb) aerosol pollution in the North Pacific rim of North America from 1850 to 2001 are investigated using a high-resolution (subannual to annual) ice core record recovered from Eclipse Icefield (3017 masl; St. Elias Mountains, Canada). Beginning in the early 1940s, increasing Pb concentration at Eclipse Icefield occurs coevally with anthropogenic Pb deposition in ...

Internal gravity waves are generated as adjustment radiation whenever a sudden change in forcing causes the atmosphere to depart from its large-scale balanced state. Such a forcing anomaly occurs during a solar eclipse, when the Moon's shadow cools part of the Earth's surface. The resulting atmospheric gravity waves are associated with pressure and temperature perturbations, which in principle ...

Volcanic outgassing due to tidal heating is the ultimate source of a tenuous SO2 atmosphere around Jupiter’s moon Io. The question of whether SO2 frost on the surface plays a part, and to what degree, in maintaining Io’s atmosphere with the constant volcanic outgassing is still debated. It is believed that for a sublimation-supported atmosphere, the primary atmosphere should collapse during ecl...
