Abstract. To better understand snow chemistry in different environments across the Antarctic ice sheet, we investigated ions on a traverse from coast to Dome A. Results show that non-sea-salt (nss) fractions of K+, Mg2+, and Ca2+ are mainly terrestrial particle mass nssCl− is associated with HCl. Spatially, totals higher interior areas than coast, seasonally, proportions summer winter. Negative...

This paper presents the design and development of a carbon fiber reinforced plastic dome, including a description of the dome fabrication, method for sealing penetrations in the dome, and a summary of the planned test series. This dome will be used for the experimental permeability characterization and leakage validation of composite vessels pressurized using liquid hydrogen and liquid nitrogen...

Dome is an object based parallel programming environment for heterogeneous distributed networks of machines. This paper gives a brief overview of Dome. We show that Dome programs are easy to write. A description of the load balancing performed in Dome is presented along with performance measurements on a cluster of DEC Alpha workstations connected by a DEC Gigaswitch. A Dome program is compared...

background: the technique of vertical dome division or tip defining, involves incising the lateral crura and vestibular skin at or lateral to the dome or tip defining point. the incision di-vides the lower lateral cartilage into a lateral segment and a medial segment, which are advanced anteriorly and sutured together to increase tip projection. the present study aimed at assessing a new vertic...
