Characteristics of Unknown Linear Systems Deduced from Measured CW Magnitude
A method is presented for predicting the total response, in both frequency and time, of an unknown linear system when only the measured continuous wave (cw) magnitude is available. The approach is based on approximating the square of the measured magnitude by a rational function, from which various system transfer functions in terms of complex frequency are deduced. These transfer functions may...
متن کاملClimatological Aspects of Aerosol Physical Characteristics in Tunisia Deduced from Sun Photometric Measurements
Atmospheric and climatic data measured at Thala site (Tunisia) for a long-time period (1977-2001) are used to analyse the monthly, seasonal, and annual variations of the aerosol optical depth at 1 μm wavelength. We have shown that aerosol and microphysical properties and the dominating aerosol types depend on seasons. A comparison of the seasonal cycle of aerosol optical characteristics at Thal...
متن کاملEntropy–enthalpy compensation as deduced from measurements of temperature dependence
The concept of entropy–enthalpy compensation has exercised a peculiar fascination for biochemists since it was first proposed.[1, 2] The idea is that if a particular rate constant or equation constant is measured for a series of sample of the same enzyme from different sources, the variations in enthalpies of activation or of reaction will largely cancelled out by variations in the correspondin...
متن کاملModeling of subglacial hydrological development following rapid supraglacial lake drainage
The rapid drainage of supraglacial lakes injects substantial volumes of water to the bed of the Greenland ice sheet over short timescales. The effect of these water pulses on the development of basal hydrological systems is largely unknown. To address this, we develop a lake drainage model incorporating both (1) a subglacial radial flux element driven by elastic hydraulic jacking and (2) downst...
متن کاملConnected subglacial lake drainage beneath Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica
We present conventional and swath altimetry data from Cryosat-2 revealing a system of subglacial lakes that drained between June 2013 and January 2014 under the central part of Thwaites Glacier, West Antarctica. Much of the 10 drainage happened in less than six months, with an apparent connection between three lakes spanning more than 130 km. Hydropotential analysis of the glacier bed shows a l...
