Compositional Heterogeneity of Hailstones: Atmospheric Conditions and Possible Environmental Implications
© Royal Swedish Academy of Sciences 2001 Ambio Vol. 30 No. 7, Nov. 2001 http://www.ambio.kva.se Hail is precipitation in the form of balls or irregular chunks of ice, which are usually produced by convective clouds, in association with multicell, supercell, and cold fronts. Hail begins as tiny ice pellets that collide with water droplets. As the attached droplets freeze, the pellets become larg...
متن کاملA Statistical Model for the Incidence of Large Hailstones on Solar Collectors
AMtraet--A statistical model is described for estimating the risk of impacts by large hail on any ground installation (such as a solar collector array). The model is based on data for three frequency distributions: hailstone size, hailfall count (number of hailstones per m 2 per storm), and number of haildays per year. Other than parameters derived from meteorological data, the parameters of th...
متن کاملHailstones: A Window into the Microbial and Chemical Inventory of a Storm Cloud
Storm clouds frequently form in the summer period in temperate climate zones. Studies on these inaccessible and short-lived atmospheric habitats have been scarce. We report here on the first comprehensive biogeochemical investigation of a storm cloud using hailstones as a natural stochastic sampling tool. A detailed molecular analysis of the dissolved organic matter in individual hailstones via...
متن کاملSplenic Actinomycosis: Unusual Presentation
Splenic abscess is not a common condition and actinomyces as a cause is very rarely reported. We report a case of actinomycosis of spleen in a 12 year-old boy, with a few days history of abdominal pain and fever. Past medical history was not significant. Due to sever abdominal pain and tenderness condition laparatomy was done that a small perforated area was seen on hilum of spleen, so splenect...
متن کاملUnusual bleeds, unusual clots.
Nine unusual bleeding and clotting disorders (or mimickers of such) are described in the format of case presentations, with focus on clinical history, images and diagnostic tests, followed by a discussion of the disease itself and a summarizing clinical teaching point. The disease entities discussed are acquired factor VIII inhibitor, acquired von Willebrand factor inhibitor, haemophilic pseudo...
