Recent Climate Anomalies And Their Impact On Snow Chemistry At South Pole, 1987 - 1994, Jack E. Dibb, Sallie I. Whitlow May 1996

Recent Climate Anomalies And Their Impact On Snow Chemistry At South Pole, 1987 - 1994, Jack E. Dibb, Sallie I. Whitlow

Earth Sciences

Three 2-m deep snowpits sampled at South Pole in 1994 provide detailed (2-cm resolution) profiles of the concentrations of soluble ionic species for the period 1987 - 1994. The most prominent feature is a large concentration spike of SO4 = in snow deposited in 1992 reflecting fallout from the eruptions of Pinatubo and Hudson in 1991. Concentrations of MSA and values of the MSA/(non-sea-salt SO4 =) ratio are elevated for about three years centered on the prominent volcanic signal. These changes appear to be due to the extended 1991 - 1993 El Nino. The overlapping effects of the volcanic eruptions …

Unsiteability: What Should It Tell Us?, Michael Thompson Mar 1996

Unsiteability: What Should It Tell Us?, Michael Thompson

RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)

Dr. Thompson argues that if rich countries can effortlessly be rid of noxious wastes, they will not receive signals encouraging better lines of development - by market, as well as hierarchical and egalitarian, criteria.

Physics & Astronomy

Compton Gamma Ray Observatory data of the COMPTEL and EGRET telescopes from 3 viewing periods have been used to search for gamma-ray emission from the Lagrangian points L_4_ and L_5_ of the binary system including the eclipsing pulsar PSR1957+20. The result was negative and the upper limits derived remain significantly below detections reported earlier.


Asian Influence Over The Western North Pacific During The Fall Season: Inferences From Lead 210, Soluble Ionic Species And Ozone, Jack E. Dibb, R. Talbot, Anthony Klemm, G L. Gregory, H B. Singh, J D. Bradshaw, S T. Sandholm Jan 1996

Asian Influence Over The Western North Pacific During The Fall Season: Inferences From Lead 210, Soluble Ionic Species And Ozone, Jack E. Dibb, R. Talbot, Anthony Klemm, G L. Gregory, H B. Singh, J D. Bradshaw, S T. Sandholm

Earth Sciences

Aerosol samples collected over the western Pacific during the NASA/Global Tropospheric Experiment Pacific Exploratory Mission (PEM-West A) expedition (September–October 1991) revealed mean 210Pb concentrations in the free troposphere in the 5–10 fCi m−3 STP range. Most soluble ionic aerosol-associated species were near detection limits [≪40 parts per trillion by volume (pptv)] in these same samples. The altitude distribution of O3 near Asia closely resembled that of 210Pb, while no relationship was found between the concentrations of O3 and 7Be. Free tropospheric air over the western Pacific was depleted in soluble aerosol-associated species but enriched …

Klemm, J D. Bradshaw, S T. Sandholm, D R. Blake, G W. Sachse, J E. Collins Jr, B J. Heikes, G L. Gregory, B E. Anderson, H B. Singh, D C. Thornton, J T. Merrill

Earth Sciences

An important objective of the Pacific Exploratory Mission-West A (PEM-West A) was the chemical characterization of the outflow of tropospheric trace gases and aerosol particles from the Asian continent over the western Pacific Ocean. This paper summarizes the chemistry of this outflow during the period September – October 1991. The vertical distributions of CO, C2H6, and NOxshowed regions of outflow at altitudes below 2 km and from 8 to 12 km. Mixing ratios of CO were ≈130 parts per billion by volume (ppbv), ≈1000 parts per trillion by volume (pptv) for C2H …
