Buckle up
Electrically conducting fluids can generate a magnetic dynamo when layers of fluid slide past one another, often at different rates. Known as shear, this is how the Earth and the Sun produce magnetic fields. But exactly how large-scale spatial coherence over the entire surface of the Sun can arise at high magnetic Reynolds numbers, as lines of magnetic field are dragged along by fluid flow, has...
متن کاملIs it time to call time on the scleral buckle?
O vernight, an extensive pool of subretinal fluid (SRF) disappears following the judicious application of a small plomb over a peripheral U-tear, and one can only marvel at the underlying mechanisms at play. The scleral indentation has somehow overcome the dynamic tractional forces operating in the region of the break, allowing it to close; and the ‘‘pigment epithelial pump’’ has obligingly dri...
متن کاملFlying into the future: aviation emissions scenarios to 2050.
This study describes the methodology and results for calculating future global aviation emissions of carbon dioxide and oxides of nitrogen from air traffic under four of the IPCC/SRES (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change/Special Report on Emissions Scenarios) marker scenarios: A1B, A2, B1, and B2. In addition, a mitigation scenario has been calculated for the B1 scenario, requiring rapid ...
متن کاملImpact of perturbations to nitrogen oxide emissions from global aviation
[1] The atmospheric response to perturbations in NOx emissions from global air traffic is investigated by performing a coherent set of sensitivity experiments. The importance of cruise altitude, size of the emission perturbation and geographical distribution of emissions is systematically analyzed using two global chemistry transport models and an off-line radiative transfer model. NOx emission...
متن کاملA Win-Win Solution to Abate Aviation CO2 Emissions
We outline a benchmark carbon dioxide (CO2) intensity system with tradable permits for the aviation industry that will incent in-sector emission abatement opportunities that cost less than the social cost of carbon (SCC). The system sets benchmark emission intensities (CO2 emissions per revenue ton kilometer) by route group and facilitates flexibility in meeting the benchmarks by allowing airli...
