Tracer interrelationships in the stratosphere
The mixing ratios of long-lived chemical constituents in the stratosphere frequently display surprisingly simple mutual relationships. Long-livedin this context means that their chemical lifetimes are much longer than typical transport time scales. These relationships are manifested in similar spatial structures on scales ranging from thousands of kilometers down to the nest resolution of in...
متن کاملStrategies for measuring canonical tracer relationships in the stratosphere
A high-resolution simulation of stratospheric long-lived trace gases is subsampled in ways resembling various commonly used measurement platforms. The resulting measurements are analyzed with respect to whether they allow an accurate determination of stratospheric tracer relationships, as a prerequisite for a quantification of mixing processes from them. By varying the simulated locations, freq...
متن کاملProbability distribution function of tracer differences and the diffusive scale in the stratosphere
The PDF of N2O mixing ratio differences over various separation distances is studied using ER-2 airborne data. It is found that the PDF shape ranges from Gaussian, through stretched exponential and exponential, back to Gaussian as the separation distance increases from 200 m to about 200 km. With the PDF as a diagnostic tool, we identify the horizontal diffusive scale in the lower stratosphere ...
متن کاملContraband in the stratosphere.
We have established a reliable method to induce invasive and non-invasive carcinomas in the heterotopically transplanted urinary bladder of rats by repeated injection of N-methyl-N-nitrosourea (MNU). and examined the alterations of the ras oncogenes and ras oncogene product (p21) in the induced tumours. The incidence of muscle-invasive carcinomas was proportional to the total dose of MNU. When ...
متن کاملInterrelationships between the kinetics of VLDL subspecies and HDL catabolism in abdominal obesity: a multicenter tracer kinetic study.
CONTEXT Low plasma high-density lipoprotein (HDL) cholesterol is a major abnormality in abdominal obesity. This relates due to accelerated HDL catabolism, but the underlying mechanism requires further elucidation. The relationships between HDL catabolism and other variables that may be modified in abdominal obesity, such as very low-density lipoprotein (VLDL) subspecies (VLDL1, VLDL2) kinetics,...
