Teaming up against tsunamis.
Q: What personal qualities have made your career possible? A: An advantage I have is having an open mind and being humble enough to realize that you can’t be an expert in everything. As problems become bigger, especially in the case of natural disasters, we have to work more with other scientists, other engineering groups, but also with the social sciences— psychologists, disaster managers, his...
متن کاملCrisis-Induced intermittency due to Attractor-Widening in a Buoyancy-Driven Solar dynamo
In a recent paper [M. A. J. H. Ossendrijver, A&A 359, 364 (2000)] numerical simulations of a 2D mean–field model where shown to produce grand minima, typical of the long-term behavior of solar magnetic activity. The model consisted of dynamo that features an α effect based on the buoyancy instability of magnetic fluxtubes, which gives rise to the switching back and forth from grand minima to “r...
متن کاملIs Cl- protection against silver toxicity due to chemical speciation?
In freshwater teleosts, the primary mechanism of acute silver toxicity is inhibition of Na(+)/K(+) ATPase and carbonic anhydrase at the gill, leading to net Na(+) and Cl(-) loss due to the continued diffusion of these ions into the hypoosmotic external environment. External Cl(-) has been shown to protect rainbow trout (Oncorhychus mykiss) against silver toxicity presumably by complexation to f...
متن کاملModeling of Vertical Breakwater Wall under Bilateral Seawater Load
Floating breakwaters are widely used due to their various advantages over stationary breakwaters. Lots of researches have been done on hydrodynamics and the type of bracing of these kinds of structures in recent years. In this study, numerical modeling of stresses caused by collision waves has been investigated. For this purpose, samples of floating breakwaters have been modeled in ANSYS softwa...
متن کاملSimulations of an alpha-effect due to magnetic buoyancy
Three-dimensional simulations of a thermally stably stratified gas with a localized layer of toroidal magnetic field are carried out. The magnetic field gives rise to a magnetic buoyancy instability. Due to the presence of rotation the resulting fluid motions are helical and lead to an -effect, i.e. to a component of the electromotive force in the direction of the mean magnetic field. The value...
