Isotopic Clues to Sources of Natural and Anthropogenic Lead in Sediments and Soils from O'ahu, Hawai'i
Stable Pb isotopes, Pb elemental concentrations, and, for some samples, Nd and Sr isotopes and concentrations have been analyzed on soils and on stream and estuarine sediments to evaluate the provenance of major inputs of Pb to the O'ahu, Hawai'i, environment. Core samples from the Ala Wai Canal, a major estuary draining urban Honolulu, preserve a historical record of anthropogenic lead input t...
متن کاملModelled isotopic fractionation and transient diffusive release of methane from potential subsurface sources on Mars
We calculate transport timescales of martian methane and investigate the effect of potential release mechanisms into the atmosphere using a numerical model that includes both Fickian and Knudsen diffusion. The incorporation of Knudsen diffusion, which improves on a Fickian description of transport given the low permeability of the martian regolith, means that transport timescales from sources c...
متن کاملExperimental characterisation of a plume above rectangular thermal sources. Effect of aspect ratio
An experimental study of the thermal plume emerging above a number of plane rectangular heat sources of finite dimensions was performed with the aim of verifying the corresponding point source or linear source models and the evolutions of the dynamic and thermal fields in relation to the aspect ratio. The heat sources were assembled from four rectangular units 1.5 m in length and 0.25 m in widt...
متن کاملAnthropogenic air pollution sources
What one experiences today as atmosphere is a transient snapshot and result of its evolutionary history. Much of the development and present status was explained based both on scientific knowledge, and combined with established facts, even speculation. The planet Earth was formed around 4600 million years ago by the gravitational accretion of relatively small rocks and dust, within the solar ne...
