On the synchronism in the events within the core and on the surface of the earth: the changes in the organic world and in the polarity of the geomagnetic field in the phanerozoic

The data on geomagnetic reversals are compared with the changes in the organic world and with the lower-mantle plumes. The times of the formation of plumes and the times of their appearance on the Earth’s surface relate to the intervals characterized by the different frequencies of geomagnetic reversals, i.e., there is no interrelation between the formation of plumes and the frequency of the changes in the geomagnetic field polarity. At the same time, a certain synchronism is observed between the frequency of the geomagnetic reversals and the boundaries of the biostratigraphic ages, i.e., the changes in the organic world in the long-period range. A hypothesis is proposed, which explains the change in the sign of the geomagnetic field by the combined effect of the irregular rotation of the internal core relative to the mantle and the changes in the slope angle of the axis of the Earth’s rotation, which, in turn, results in synchronous events on the Earth’s surface: the rates of changes in the organic world.     

The differences in structure of the gravity field and the figure of the earth in the northern and southern hemispheres

Summary It was shown in [5] that the flattening of parallel sections of the geoid (ϕ=const.) differs in the northern and southern hemispheres. This leads up to the idea of studying further the size and shape of the Earth and the structure of the gravity field separately for the northern and for the southern hemispheres. In this paper attention is devoted especially to the mean values of the radius-vectors, to the best fitting ellipsoid parameters and to the mean values of gravity for the whole hemispheres, on the one hand, and for their ϕ=const. sections, on the other. The symbols used are the same as in [5,6]. Address: Politickych vězňů 12, Praha 1-Nové Město.     

Regularities in the Space and Time Flow Variations in the Near-Mouth Reach and Delta of the Lena R.

Lena flow showed considerable, mostly climate-induced, changes in the recent 30–40 years. The character of these changes at the river watershed–sea border somewhat differs from that in the basin outlet station because of flow transformations in the near-mouth reach and, especially, in the delta. The new stationary and occasional expedition observations were used to improve the estimates of the major characteristics of the discharges of water, suspended sediment, and heat in the Lena outlet section and to identify the features and causes of their long-term and seasonal variations. Another important result is the estimation of flow characteristic in the reach downstream of the basin outlet station, at delta head, and on its coastline. New data are given on the present-day distribution of water and suspended sediment discharges between the major delta branches, their long-term variations, and the character of inundation of the near-head delta area during spring floods.

Nitrogen isotope fractionations in the Fischer-Tropsch synthesis and in the Miller-Urey reaction

Nitrogen isotope fractionations have been measured in Fischer-Tropsch and Miller-Urey reactions in order to determine whether these processes can account for the large¹⁵N/¹⁴N ratios found in organic matter in carbonaceous chondrites. Polymeric material formed in the Fischer-Tropsch reaction was enriched in¹⁵N by only 3‰ relative to the starting material (NH₃). The¹⁵N enrichment in polymers from the Miller-Urey reaction was 10–12‰. Both of these fractionations are small compared to the 80–90‰ differences observed between enstatite chondrites and carbonaceous chondrites. These large differences are apparently due to temporal or spatial variations in the isotopic composition of nitrogen in the solar nebula, rather than to fractionation during the production of organic compounds.     

PCB and HCB in the sediments and waters of the Tiber estuary

The contamination by polychlorinated biphenyls (PCB) and hexachlorobenzene (HCB) in sea waters and sediments of Tiber River estuary has been studied in 1976 and 1977.PCBs have been detected in all the samples analysed at mean levels of 0.297 ppb (1976) and 0.135 ppb (1977); these levels are much higher than those proposed as acceptable for surface waters. Contamination increases with increasing distance from the shore.HCB has been identified in only 16% of the water samples analysed and it was found absent in sediment samples.The results are discussed relative to both the levels of PCB in other sea waters and the toxicity of these products to the aquatic animals.     

LURR and the San Simeon M 6.5 Earthquake in 2003 and the Seismic Tendency in CA

The spatial and temporal variation of LURR (Load/Unload Respond Ratio) in California during April 2002 to June 2004 was studied in this paper. The result shows that before the San Simeon earthquake (35.7 N, 121.1 W) on Dec. 22, 2003, Y/Y _c anomalous region occurred successively near the epicenter from April 2002 to June 2002, and the maximum anomaly of Y/Y _c occurred in May, 2002. The published research work pointed out that the Y/Y _c anomaly near the San Simeon earthquake appeared from March, 2002. Compared with the five earthquake cases out of the six with M ≥ 6.5 in California during the period from 1980 to 2001, the maximum Y/Y _c and duration of Y/Y _c anomaly before this earthquake are among the normal ranges, but the time delay from the maximum anomaly time to the occurrence time of this earthquake is the longest one. The result also shows that two areas with Y/Y _c anomalies occurred from Oct. 2002 and Dec. 2002, respectively. According to statistical characteristics of the relationship between Y/Y _c anomalies and the coming earthquakes, the seismic tendency in California was discussed in this paper.     

Concentration and localization of hydroxylamine in the reservoirs and lakes in the territory of European Russia

Hydroxylamine concentration and localization in the Volga reservoir cascade and in the lakes of Yaroslavl province and Vladimir province were studied. It was found that, in microaerophilic zones of the most productive lakes, the rate of hydroxylamine formation is higher and its localization does not depend on the type of the limnological object (a reservoir or a lake), but is determined by the oxygen regime of the water body in question.     

Flow in the earth's core and the hydromagnetic dynamo

Zusammenfassung Den Hauptgegenstand des Artikels bildet die Auswahl von Geschwindigkeiten für ein kinematisches Modell eines hydromagnetischen Dynamos. Die Ergebnisse der theoretischen Analyse betreffend die M?glichkeit der Entwicklung des magnetischen Feldes werden durch die Angaben über die Oberfl?chenstr?mung an der Grenze zwischen dem Erdkern und dem Mantel erg?rzt, die man aus der beobachteten sekul?ren ?nderung des magnetischen Feldes der Erde erwcrben hat. Das dreidimensionale Geschwindigkeitsfeld wurde in der Weise gew?hlt, damit die notwendige Bedingung der Entwicklung, d.i. das Nichtverschwinden des Braginskischen Entwicklungskoeffizienten, erfüllt werde und damit der Charakter von Str?mung auf der Kernoberfl?che den aus der sekul?ren ?nderung gewonnenen Angaben entspreche. Eine m?glichen Form des dreidimensionalen Geschwindigkeitsfeldes wird im Modell des hydromagnetischen Dynamos angewendet, das durch ein System von Integralgleichungen dargestellt wird. Die vorausgesetzte numerische L?sung ist nicht durchgeführt.

Atmospheric ozone and the movement of the air in the stratosphere

Using over 2200 ozonesonde ascents, published byHering andBorden [1]–[5] and byDütsch et al. [6], [7], the average vertical distribution of the ozone mixing ratio is found for different latitudes and for different seasons up to a height of 30 km. The method by which the ozone formed at great heights in low latitudes becomes concentrated in the lower stratosphere of high latitudes is discussed, and the meridional circulation theory is strongly suggested.Oxford, May 1972.     

Synchronous Changes in the Diatom Complexes and Hydrological Conditions in the Middle and Southern Caspian Paleobasins

The content of the diatom complexes of dominating ecological groups in the columns of bottom sediments in the middle and southern Caspian was found to correlate well with the changes in the ion–salt composition of aqueous extracts from these sediments. It was established that the joint interpretation of the two indices increases the reliability of detecting time variations in the hydrological regimes of these basins.     

Trends in the characteristics of the annual and semiannual variations observed in the radio wave absorption in the lower ionosphere

The continuous increase in concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is expected to cool higher levels of the atmosphere. There is some direct and indirect experimental evidence of long-term trends in temperature and other parameters in the mesosphere and lower thermosphere (MLT). Here we look for long-term trends in the annual and semiannual variations of the radio wave absorption in the lower ionosphere, which corresponds to the MLT region heights. Data from central and southeastern Europe are used. A consistent tendency to a positive trend in the amplitude of the semiannual wave appears to be observed. The reality of a similar tendency in the amplitude of the annual wave is questionable in the sense that the trend in the amplitude of the annual wave is probably induced by the trend in the yearly average values of absorption. The phases of both the annual and semiannual waves display a forward tendency, i.e. shift to an earlier time in the year. A tentative interpretation of these results in terms of changes of the seasonal variation of temperature and wind at MLT heights does not contradict the trends observed in those parameters.

Shocks and sheaths in the heliosphere

This paper compares three kinds of shocks and sheaths; the bow shock and magnetosheaths of planets, interplanetary coronal mass ejection (ICME) shocks and sheaths, and the termination shock and heliosheath. We compare the energy balance across these shocks, fluctuations in the sheaths, asymmetries, and shock evolution. All three shocks and sheaths display asymmetries imposed by outside magnetic fields. Energy balance is often achieved through reflection of ions of the shocks, but in some cases no reflected ions are observed. The shocks may have similar small scale fluctuations which drive density changes in the sheaths.     

Changes in low and high flows in the Vistula and the Odra basins: Model projections in the European‐scale context

A number of extensive droughts and destructive floods have occurred in Poland in the last 25 years; hence, projections of low and high river flows are of considerable interest and importance. In the first part of this paper, projections of low and high flows in the rivers of the Vistula and the Odra basins (VOB region), for two future time horizons, are presented. Projections are based on the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) hydrological model simulations driven by results of the EURO‐CORDEX experiment under Representative Concentration Pathways 4.5 and 8.5. The VOB region covers most of Poland and parts of five neighboring countries, giving this study an international relevance. In the second part of the paper, a review of projections of low and high flows in rivers in Central and Eastern Europe is presented. Despite a substantial spread of flow projections, the main message of the modelling part is that increases of both low and high flows are dominating. The magnitude of increase of low flow is considerably higher than that of high flow. In other words, future streamflow droughts are projected to be less severe, whereas, in contrast, river floods are projected to increase, which is a challenge for flood risk reduction, water management, and climate change adaptation. There is an overall agreement of our findings for the VOB region with projections of hydrological extremes from large‐scale models forced by EURO‐CORDEX results in the European‐scale studies.
