Mesoscale energetics and ̄ows induced by sea-land and mountain-valley contrasts
We study the relative importance of sea-land and mountain-valley thermal contrasts in determining the development of thermally forced mesoscale circulations (TFMCs) over a mountainous peninsula. We ®rst analyse the energetics of the problem, and using this theory, we interprete the numerical simulations over Calabria, a mountainous peninsula in southern Italy. The CSU 3-D nonlinear numerical mo...

متن کاملSources and chemical character of dissolved organic carbon across 2 an alpine / subalpine ecotone , Green Lakes Valley
12 [1] We investigated how the source and chemical character of aquatic dissolved organic 13 carbon (DOC) change over the course of the runoff season (May–November, 1999) in 14 Green Lakes Valley, a high-elevation ecosystem in the Front Range of the Colorado Rocky 15 Mountains. Samples were collected on North Boulder Creek from four sites across an 16 alpine/subalpine ecotone in order to unders...
متن کاملPaleoecology meets genetics: deciphering past vegetational dynamics
O the past few decades, Quaternary paleoecological studies have provided an impressive global database of pollen and macrofossils. Not only are these fossil records essential for detecting past species distributions (Baker 1959), but they have also played a key role in testing ecological theories and evaluating model predictions of climatic and biotic changes, from the past and into the future....
متن کاملWithin-city contrasts in PM composition and sources and their relationship with nitrogen oxides.
The present work is part of the INMA (INfancia y Medio Ambiente -'Environment and Childhood') project, which aims at assessing the adverse effects of exposure to air pollution during pregnancy and early in life. The present study was performed in the city of Sabadell (Northeast Spain) at three sampling sites covering different traffic characteristics, during two times of the year. It assesses t...
