Investigating the preservation of nitrate isotopic composition in a tropical ice core from the Quelccaya Ice Cap, Peru
The nitrogen and oxygen isotopic composition of nitrate in ice cores offers unique potential for examining reactive nitrogen oxide (NOx) budgets and oxidation chemistry of past atmospheres. A low-latitude record is of particular interest given that the dominant natural sources of NOx and production of hydroxyl radical are most prevalent in the tropics. Any interpretation of nitrate in ice cores...
متن کاملInvestigation of post-depositional processing of nitrate in East Antarctic snow: isotopic constraints on photolytic loss, re-oxidation, and source inputs
Snowpits along a traverse from coastal East Antarctica to the summit of the ice sheet (Dome Argus) are used to investigate the post-depositional processing of nitrate (NO−3 ) in snow. Seven snowpits from sites with accumulation rates between 24 and 172 kg m a were sampled to depths of 150 to 300 cm. At sites from the continental interior (low accumulation, < 55 kg m a), nitrate mass fraction is...
متن کاملSynthesis and investigation the thermal behavior thermodynamically of new metal Complex of Cobalt nitrate
Increasing the molecular accumulation and density of high-energy substances have a determinative role in improving the performance and intensity of energy release. Therefore, it is possible to increase the density of high-energy materials if the high-energy molecules can be arranged around a metal core as coordinated molecules. The aim of this project was to synthesize energetic complexes of cy...
متن کاملUsing Dual Isotopes and a Bayesian Isotope Mixing Model to Evaluate Nitrate Sources of Surface Water in a Drinking Water Source Watershed, East China
A high concentration of nitrate (NO3) in surface water threatens aquatic systems and human health. Revealing nitrate characteristics and identifying its sources are fundamental to making effective water management strategies. However, nitrate sources in multi-tributaries and mix land use watersheds remain unclear. In this study, based on 20 surface water sampling sites for more than two years’ ...
متن کاملSources and fluxes of atmospheric trace elements to the Gulf of Aqaba, Red Sea
[1] We present the first comprehensive investigation of the concentrations, fluxes and sources of aerosol trace elements over the Gulf of Aqaba. We found that the mean atmospheric concentrations of crustally derived elements such as Al, Fe and Mn (1081, 683, and 16.7 ng m ) are about 2–3 times higher than those reported for the neighboring Mediterranean area. This is indicative of the dominance...
