A wide range of hydrological cycles and general circulations was simulated with an idealized general circulation model (GCM) by varying the optical thickness of the longwave absorber. While the idealized GCM does not capture the full complexity of the hydrological cycle, the wide range of climates simulated allows the systematic development and testing of theories of how precipitation and moist...

Global climate models do not have sufficient spatial resolution to represent the atmospheric and land surface processes that determine the unique regional heterogeneity of the climate of the State of Washington. If future large-scale weather patterns interact differently with the local terrain and coastlines than current weather patterns, local changes in temperature and precipitation could be ...

Title of Document: VARIABILITY OF THE GREAT PLAINS LOW-LEVEL JET: LARGE SCALE CIRCULATION CONTEXT AND HYDROCLIMATE IMPACTS Scott J. Weaver, Doctor of Philosophy, 2007 Directed By: Professor Sumant Nigam, Department of Atmospheric and Oceanic Science Variability of the Great Plains Low-Level Jet (GPLLJ) is analyzed from the perspective of larger-scale, lower-frequency influences and regional hyd...

trypsin is a serine protease found in the digestive system of many vertebrates, where it hydrolyses proteins. trypsin has been used widely in various biotechnological processes. in this study trypsin was purified using two precipitation cut, 35% and 75% as saturation percent of ammonium sulfate solutions, tca precipitation (2.5% w/v), ph precipitation and finally affinity chromatography. this m...

One consequence of climate change is the alteration of global water fluxes, both in amount and seasonality. As a result, the seasonal difference between dry- (p < 100 mm/month) and wet-season (p > 100 mm/month) precipitation (p) has increased over land during recent decades (1980-2005). However, our analysis expanding to a 60-year period (1950-2009) showed the opposite trend. This is, dry-seaso...

This study examines the pattern and trend of seasonal annual precipitation along with extreme events in a data scare, south Asian country, Afghanistan. Seven indices were considered based on intensity, duration, frequency events. The revealed that Afghanistan is unevenly distributed at yearly scales. Southern southwestern provinces remain significantly dry whereas, northern northeastern receive...
