POLICY ACTION ON CLIMATE CHANGE IS INFORMED BY CLIMATE MODEL projections as described most recently in the Fifth Assessment Report (AR5) of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). The models used are general circulation models (GCMs), which numerically represent the physical climate system in three dimensions, including the hydrological cycle. These are complemented by recently de...

[1] In the fall of both 1999 and 2000, unexpected ‘‘rapid tides’’ occurred along the coast of the Avalon Peninsula of Newfoundland. These rapid tides have been linked to the passing of Tropical Storm Jose (1999) and Tropical Storm Helene (2000) over the Grand Banks. Here we examine the dynamic ocean response to Tropical Storm Helene (2000) using a barotropic shallow water ocean model forced by ...

dust is a common atmospheric phenomenon in iran especially in central arid regions.  this severely affects environment as well as resident’s health. among the results of this phenomenon are respiratory diseases, bash radiation, accelerated soil erosion, desertification and degradation of ecosystems. some dusts are originated from local desert conditions but adjacency to neighboring countries de...

From space, Earth is a blue planet marked by stark white cloud structures that distinguish it from other planets. By ref lecting sunlight, blocking outgoing longwave radiation, and producing precipitation, clouds have an enormous impact on Earth’s weather and climate. The single largest source of uncertainty in global climate models has always been the response of clouds, especially low clouds,...

The scientific work is devoted to studying hydroecological problems and methods for assessing the transformation of river water on example Chirchik River, which flows through large industrial centers Republic Uzbekistan territory its capital, Tashkent. Investigations quantitative qualitative runoff were carried out using interpolation method. main task describe method hydrometeorological data t...

Somogyi's (6) blood sugar method is one of the most reliable and extensively used method for the estimation of true sugar. Non-sugar reducing substances of blood are located principally in the erythrocytes (3) and are removed from laked blood by adding barium hydroxide and zinc sulphate solution in this method (5). Unfortunately solutions of barium hydroxide are very susceptible to deterioratio...

Anesthetized animals are awakened when subjected to increased atmospheric pressure. Whether all phenomena associated with the anesthetic state are similarly reversed is not known. Since the anesthetic halothane produces a dose-related reversible depression of rat liver mitochondrial respiration, the effect of 51 atmospheres of pressure on the drug's action was evaluated. It is concluded that ap...

We discuss the possibility to observe matter effects in atmospheric neutrino oscillations. The main conclusion is that an impact on the νμ survival probability requires the action of the MSW resonance, which becomes visible for baselines above ∼ 7000 km. The associated muon charge asymmetry carries information on θ13 and the sign of ∆m31. ∗Talk given at the EPS-Conference on HEPP, Budapest (Hun...
