Abstract Cut-off lows are crucial extratropical circulation systems that can bring weather extremes over large areas, but the mechanism responsible for life cycle of cut-off remains elusive. From a perspective regional eddy-mean flow interaction, this study investigates dynamical processes controlling evolution early-summer Northeast Asia using 6-hourly reanalysis data. Through diagnostic local...

[1] In an idealized situation of a baroclinically unstable single eddy, we study the impact of eddy-induced mixing on the soft-tissue carbon pump. The new element here is the coupling of a three-dimensional nonhydrostatic ocean model with a physiological plankton model that is able to represent a variable plankton C:N ratio. During the development and breakup of the eddy, a complicated vertical...

PURPOSE The WEI Jet Endotracheal Tube (WEI JET) is a new tracheal tube that facilitates both oxygenation and ventilation during the process of intubation and assists tracheal intubation in patients with difficult airway. We evaluated the effectiveness and usefulness of the WEI JET in combination with lightwand under direct laryngoscopy in difficult tracheal intubation due to unstable cervical s...

Near surface turbulent momentum flux estimates are performed over the Aegean Sea, using two different approaches regarding drag coefficient formulation, a wave boundary layer model (referred here as KCM) and most commonly used Coupled Ocean–Atmosphere Response Experiment (COARE) algorithm. The KCM incorporates modifications in energy-containing spectrum to account for conditions of similarity s...

A three-dimensional numerical model was applied to examine the impact of the Burrard Generating Station cooling water on the circulation patterns and thermal regime in the receiving water of Port Moody Arm. A key aspect of this study involved properly incorporating the submerged cooling water buoyant jet into the 3D model. To overcome the scale and interface barriers between the near-field and ...

recently, particular attention has been paid to the stepped spillways due to the increasing effect of energy dissipation and the reduction of cavitations risks with the development of roller compacted concrete (rcc) technique. flow regimes on the spillways divide into three groups, namely skimming, jet and transition flow. compared to the numerical methods, the majority of performed studies in ...

We present a study of the properties of the collective modes of a system composed by a thermalized quark-gluon plasma traversed by a relativistic jet of partons. We find that when the jet traverses the system unstable gauge field modes are excited and grow on very short time scales. The aim is to provide a novel mechanism for the description of the jet quenching phenomenon, where the jet crossi...

A search for SUSY using the top quark plus missing transverse energy (MET), in a low mass mSUGRA test point is performed. A two–constraints kinematic fit is utilized to extract the top quark, either b-jet the ones that is recognizable or it is not recognizable. It is shown that for point LM1, for the former situation, a 5σ excess can be achieved with 30 pb-1 and for the latter situation, it can...
