Recently, an involved approach has been used by Abramov (2008 J. Phys. B: At. Mol. Opt. Phys. 41 175201) to introduce a separable adiabatic basis into the hyperradial adiabatic (HA) approximation. The aim was to combine the separability of the Born-Oppenheimer (BO) adiabatic basis and the better asymptotic properties of the HA approach. Generalizing these results we present ...

This paper studies large dam models where the difference between lower and upper levels $L$ is assumed to be large. Passage across the levels leads to damage, and the damage costs of crossing the lower or upper level are proportional to the large parameter $L$. Input stream of water is described by compound Poisson process, and the water cost depends upon current level of water in the dam. The aim ...

Central Asia is well known as an area of substantial water problems mainly caused by climate change and careless consumption of water resources. As in other parts of the globe where high mountains are surrounded by arid and semi-arid zones, snow and glacier melt are major contributors to runoff and important resources for agriculture in the lowlands. The FAO-UNESCO has started a "Climate Impact ...

Electrophysiological events are of central importance during the phagocyte respiratory burst, because NADPH oxidase is electrogenic and voltage sensitive. We investigated the recent suggestion that large-conductance, calcium-activated K(+) (BK) channels, rather than proton channels, play an essential role in innate immunity (Ahluwalia, J., A. Tinker, L.H. Clapp, M.R. Duchen, A.Y. ...

A km-scale bolide delivers enough energy to heat subsurface water, and drive hydrothermal circulation (Abramov and Kring, 2005). This post-impact hydrothermal (PIH) circulation can lead to surface discharge of water, and chemical alteration - both are potentially detectable. We present the effects that permeability and freezing have on discharge and water:rock (W/R) ratios. We ...

Volume-area scaling is a common tool for deriving future volume evolutions of valley glaciers and their contribution to sea-level rise. We analyze the performance of scaling relationships for deriving volume projections in comparison to projections from a one-dimensional ice-flow model. The model is calibrated for six glaciers (Nigardsbreen, Rhonegletscher, South Cascade Glacier, Sofiyskiy ...

During the Noachian, Mars - like the other terrestrial planets - was affected by the inner solar system cataclysm resulting in a heavily cratered surface [Kring & Cohen, 2002, JGR 107]. Therefore, impact cratering is an important, if not the dominating geologic process of that era. While the Martian surface during the Noachian is thought to have been a warm and wet place, this has likely ...

Observational evidence for hydrothermal alteration associated with impact craters in the Southern Highlands of Mars is growing [Ehlmann, et al 2008; 2009; Marzo 2008]. Hydrothermal systems are predicted for impacts into volatile-rich targets where fluid flow is typically concentrated along fractures in the walls, central peaks, and beneath the crater floor [e.g. Abramov and ...

Introduction: The Apollo program demonstrated that the Earth-Moon system was targeted by impacting asteroids and comets far more frequently than that suggested by the small number of surviving craters on Earth. Because Apollo missions returned samples to Earth, a quantitative chronology of that impact flux began to emerge, indicating most impact craters on the Moon were produced during an early ...

Near IR signatures of water ices are known to depend on temperature and grain size, a property that could be used to constrain the surface characteristics of icy moons1,2,3. Models indicate that the 1.65 �m absorption band depends strongly on temperature2,4,5 and on grain size. Other bands (1.03, 1.27, 1.50 and 2 �m) show a strong dependence with grain size (e.g. (6) for the 1.03 �m band). ...

Impact cratering is a key process when studying Mars�s past aqueous environments. It is a widespread and dynamic process which has been active throughout Mars�s history, especially during the Noachian era. Noachian-aged hydrated minerals have been reported on Mars (e.g. [1, 2]) and provide strong constrains on the alleged early wet Martian environment [3]. Our knowledge of this early wet ...

We are studying a model for Enceladus' interior in which the water, gas, dust and heat are supplied to the plumes by a relatively deeply circulating brine solution. Data indicates such a source for the erupting material. On the basis of ammonia in the plume gas Waite et al.

Abramovite, a new mineral species, has been found as fumarole crust on the Kudryavy volcano, Iturup Island, Kuriles, Russia. The mineral is associated with pyrrhotite, pyrite, w�rtzite, galena, halite, sylvite, and anhydrite. Abramovite occurs as tiny elongated lamellar crystals up to 1 mm long and 0.2 mm wide (average 300 � 50 ? m), which make up chaotic intergrowths in the narrow zone of ...

School-university networks are becoming an important method to enhance educational renewal and student achievement.

Production efficiency models aim at explaining variation of vegetation productivity with climatic input and information on vegetation cover often obtained from satellite observations. It has been acknowledged that different plant species differ in their potential to assimilate carbon dioxide per unit of PAR (i.e light use efficiency, LUE). Subsequently, some LUE-based models apply different ...

This paper presents a numerical method for the inverse extraction of the multiple physical parameters of phase-shifted fiber Bragg gratings (FBGs).
