Effect of Intensity and Mode of Artificial Upwelling on Particle Flux and Carbon Export
2021
Reduction of anthropogenic CO2 emissions alone will not sufficiently restrict global warming and enable the 1.5°C goal of the Paris agreement to be met. To effectively counteract climate change, measures to actively remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere are required. Artificial upwelling has been proposed as one such carbon dioxide removal technique. By fueling primary productivity in the surface ocean with nutrient-rich deep water, it could potentially enhance downward fluxes of particulate organic carbon (POC) and carbon sequestration. In this study we investigated the effect of different intensities of artificial upwelling combined with two upwelling modes (recurring additions vs. on…
General overview: European Integrated project on Aerosol Cloud Climate and Air Quality interactions (EUCAARI)-integrating aerosol research from nano …
2011
In this paper we describe and summarize the main achievements of the European Aerosol Cloud Climate and Air Quality Interactions project (EUCAARI). EUCAARI started on 1 January 2007 and ended on 31 December 2010 leaving a rich legacy including: (a) a comprehensive database with a year of observations of the physical, chemical and optical properties of aerosol particles over Europe, (b) comprehensive aerosol measurements in four developing countries, (c) a database of airborne measurements of aerosols and clouds over Europe during May 2008, (d) comprehensive modeling tools to study aerosol processes fron nano to global scale and their effects on climate and air quality. In addition a new Pan…
KOSMOS 2018 Gran Canaria mesocosm study: water column biogeochemistry
2021
The data set compiles biogeochemical water column collected during a KOSMOS mesocosm experiment carried out in the frame work of the Ocean Artificial Upwelling project. The experiment was performed in the North-East Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Gran Canaria in autumn 2018 and lasted for 39 days. In this study we investigated the effect of different intensities of artificial upwelling combined with two upwelling modes (recurring additions versus one singular addition) on POC export and its potential transfer efficiency to depth. The data set includes the amounts of surface water that were exchanged with nutrient-rich deep water (from ~300 m depth), primary production and chlorophyll a, el…
KOSMOS 2018 Gran Canaria mesocosm study: particle flux data from sediment trap
2021
The data set compiles sinking flux data collected during a KOSMOS mesocosm experiment carried out in the frame work of the Ocean Artificial Upwelling project. The experiment was performed in the North-East Atlantic Ocean off the coast of Gran Canaria in autumn 2018 and lasted for 39 days. In this study we investigated the effect of different intensities of artificial upwelling combined with two upwelling modes (recurring additions versus one singular addition) on POC export and its potential transfer efficiency to depth. The data set includes the amounts of surface water that were exchanged with nutrient-rich deep water (from ~300 m depth). It also contains particle flux data, i.e. POC flux…
Single-particle properties of the Hubbard model in a novel three-pole approximation
2017
We study the 2D Hubbard model using the Composite Operator Method within a novel three-pole approximation. Motivated by the long-standing experimental puzzle of the single-particle properties of the underdoped cuprates, we include in the operatorial basis, together with the usual Hubbard operators, a field describing the electronic transitions dressed by the nearest-neighbor spin fluctuations, which play a crucial role in the unconventional behavior of the Fermi surface and of the electronic dispersion. Then, we adopt this approximation to study the single-particle properties in the strong coupling regime and find an unexpected behavior of the van Hove singularity that can be seen as a prec…

Polarimetry at MAMI
2013
Moller and Mott polarimeters have been compared concerning their measurement accuracy in a dedicated "spin dance" experiment. The results obtained with the different polarimeters at vastly different energy ranges were in agreement with each other within the given systematic uncertainties of a few percent. We discuss investigations of background conditions which may allow to reduce this important contribution to the uncertainties in the Mott polarimeter to a value below 1.0%.
Solution of controversy over 1583-keV levels inPb204
1989
Data from {sup 204}Pb({ital p},{ital p}{prime}){sup 204}Pb conversion-electron and gamma-ray experiments, together with previous results, prove the existence of two levels (0{sup +} and 2{sup +}) at 1583-keV excitation energy in {sup 204}Pb. Modified values (limits) of the {rho}{sub 21}{sup 2} and {ital X}{sub 211} are 0.0013{lt}{rho}{sub 21}{sup 2}{lt}0.015 and {ital X}{sub 211}{gt}0.073. New experimental evidence indicates that all the three observed excited {ital O}{sup +} states in {sup 204}Pb can be explained as belonging to the four-neutron-hole valence space and, therefore, there is no clear candidate for the proton 2p-2h intruder state in this nucleus.
Two-phonon octupole excitation inGd146
2010
Based on experimental evidence from the $^{144}\mathrm{Sm}$($\ensuremath{\alpha},2n$) reaction, the $3484.7$-keV ${6}^{+}$ state in $^{146}\mathrm{Gd}$ is identified as the highest-spin member of the ${3}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\bigotimes}{3}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ two-phonon octupole quartet. A previously unknown $\ensuremath{\gamma}$ line of $1905.8$ keV and $E3$ character feeding the ${3}^{\ensuremath{-}}$ octupole state has been observed. These results represent the first observation of a ${6}^{+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{3}^{\ensuremath{-}}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{0}^{+}$ cascade of two $E3$ transitions in an even-even nucleus and provide strong support for the interpretation of the ${6…
Direct excitation of the “dark”b3Πstate predicted by deperturbation analysis of theA1Σ+−b3Πcomplex in KCs
2010
The diode-laser-induced fluorescence spectra $b {}^{3}{\ensuremath{\Pi}}_{\ensuremath{\Omega}=0}^{+}\ensuremath{\rightarrow}{X}^{ 1}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{+}$ originated from the rovibronic levels of the ``dark'' triplet $b {}^{3}{\ensuremath{\Pi}}_{\ensuremath{\Omega}=0}^{+}$ state of KCs dimers were recorded with a Fourier transform spectrometer with a resolution of 0.03 cm${}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$. Term values of 30 rovibronic levels $({v}_{b0}^{*}\ensuremath{\in}[14,18];{J}^{\ensuremath{'}}\ensuremath{\in}[47,134])$ below the minimum of perturbing $A {}^{1}{\ensuremath{\Sigma}}^{+}$ state were determined with 0.003--0.01 cm${}^{\ensuremath{-}1}$ uncertainty. The optimal excitation and dete…
