Poets and narrators from Mendoza and their local perceptions

This article outlines three modalities of relation between literature and geography: the literary work as demonstrative element, the literary work as collective image, and the literary work as analogous process. The verification of the three modalities takes place through an approachment to the local literature using a geographical concept, namely region, and a particular area: the province of Mendoza, in western Argentina. Ten literary works of different genre were selected to which content analysis was applied. First the relevance of these representations at the initiation of geographical research is verified and then the way in which they stimulate the definition of problems and the formulation of hypotheses is addressed.     

南极磷虾的生长与复眼直径关系的研究

本文对南极磷虾复眼的直径与磷虾体长之间的关系、在负生长状态下磷虾复眼直径的变化等进行了研究。实验结果表明：在正常情况下（磷虾身体不出现负生长），磷虾复眼的直径与体长之间存在指数函数关系。雌性磷虾的眼径（ＥＤ）与体长（ＢＬ）之间的关系为：ＥＤ＝０．５８９８ｅ０．０２８２ＢＬ（ｒ＝０．９６１３，ｎ＝２４１９）；雄虾的眼径与体长之间的关系为：ＥＤ＝０．５４４ｅ０．０３０９ＢＬ（ｒ＝０．９６２２，ｎ＝１９２０）。在相同体长的情况下，雄性磷虾的复眼直径比雌虾的大。从活体培养的结果来看，当南极磷虾出现负生长时，复眼直径保持不变，即眼径不受负生长的影响。在正常情况下（不存在负生长），雌虾的体长与眼径之间的比率（ＢＬ／ＥＤ）平均为２１．３２±０．０４（ｎ＝１３４７），雄虾的体长与眼径之间的比率平均为２０．６８±０．０７（ｎ＝７４８），未成体虾的体长与复眼直径之间的比率平均为２１．５４±０．０６（ｎ＝１０７２）。利用体长与眼径之间的比率可以准确地将在实验室内活体培养后已存在负生长的磷虾与其它处于正常状态的磷虾分开。体长与眼径之间的比率也可以作为磷虾种群是否存在负生长的监测指标     

High-Latitude Springtime Photochemistry. Part Ii: Sensitivity Studies of Ozone Production

A seven-year record of surface ozone measurements from Denali NationalPark, Alaska shows a persistent spring maximum. These data, combined withmeasurements of NO_x, hydrocarbons, O₃, and PANfrom a continental site in Alaska during the spring of 1995 are used as thebasis for a sensitivity study to explore tropospheric photochemistry in thisregion. Because of the relatively high concentrations of NO_x(mean of 116, median of 91 pptv), the net tendency was for photochemicalozone production. The range of net O₃ production for averageconditions measured at this site during spring is between 0.96–3.9ppbv/day depending on the assumptions used; in any case, this productionmust contribute to the observed springtime maximum in O₃.Model calculations showed that of the anthropogenic ozone precursors, onlyNO_x had a strong effect on the rate of ozone production; themeasured concentrations of anthropogenic hydrocarbons did not significantlyaffect the ozone budget. Naturally produced biogenic hydrocarbons, such asisoprene, may also have a significant effect on ozone production, even atconcentrations of a few 10's of pptv. An observed temperature-isoprenerelationship from a boreal site in Canada indicates that isoprene may bepresent during the Alaskan spring. Measurements of isoprene taken duringthe spring of 1996 suggest that reactive biogenic hydrocarbon emissionsbegin before the emergence of leaves on deciduous trees and that theconcentrations were sufficient to accelerate ozone production.     

Linear stability of a non-constantly stratified horizontal layer penetrated by an azimuthal magnetic field

Summary The convection in a rapidly rotating, electrically conducting, horizontal fluid layer, non-constantly stratified and penetrated by an inhomogeneous magnetic field, is studied. The convection is investigated for various ratios of the thickness of the stable and unstable stratified part of the layer. The thermal model of the layer, as well as the analysis of the results have been treated with regard to the physical conditions in the liquid core of the Earth.

Determination of tidal torques independently of densities

Summary The components of the tidal torques along the axes of the inertia ellipsoid of a perfectly elastic Earth have been derived quite independently of the density distribution of masses within the Earth. It has been demonstrated that not only the sectorial, but also the tesseral terms in the tidal forming potential are responsible for the tidal deceleration of the Earth's rotation.

Normal density earth models

Summary Models of the Earth's density, close to thePREM model, have been derived, they reproduce the external normal gravitational field of the Earth and its dynamic flattening, and are referred to as normal density models. The Earth's surface is approximated by an ellipsoid of the order of the flattening, or of its square. Of the group of normal models sgtisfying the solution of the inverse problem, the normal density modelHME2 is recommended. The spherically symmetric density modelPREM, which was corrected in the course of solving the inverse problem, thus creating the modifiedPREM-E2 model, was used as the a priori information.

Rb-Sr evidence for the presence of Ordovician gsranites in the deformed basement of the Badajoz-Córdoba belt,SW Spain

A Rb-Sr whole-rock investigation of suites of samples from two orthogneiss bodies in the Almendralejo area of the Oporto-Portalegre-Badajoz-Córdoba belt points to an Ordovician age for the granitic magmatism: about 470 Ma for the Almendralejo Gneiss (peralkaline metagranite) and about 425 Ma for the Ribera del Fresno Gneiss (leucocratic subaluminous metagranite), both with high initial⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios. This points to a post-Ordovician (Hercynian) age for the metamorphism and tectonic deformation that affected the area, including the gneisses, and rules out the alleged Cadomian or even older age.

Zusammenfassung Die Rb-Sr-Gesamtgesteinsanalysen von Probeserien zweier orthogneisischer Körper der Almendralejo-Region des Oporto-Portalegre-Badajoz-Córdoba-Gürtels weisen auf ein ordovizisches Alter des granitischen Magmas hin: rund 470 Ma für den Almendralejo-Gneis (peralkaliner Metagranit) und rund 425 Ma für den Ribera del Fresno-Gneis (leukokratischer Metagranit), beide bei einem hohen initialen⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr. Diese Ergebnisse deuten auf ein post-ordovizisches (herzynisches) Alter der Metamorphose und der tektonischen Deformation hin, die das Gebiet, einschließ-lich des Gneises, beeinflußt haben. Sie schließen ein vermeintliches kadomisches oder älteres Alter aus.

Résumé Une étude par Rb-Sr sur roche totale de séries d'échantillons de deux massifs d'orthogneiss de la région d'Almendralejo, dans la ceinture Oporto-Portalegre-Badajoz-Cordoue, indique un âge ordovicien pour le magmatisme granitique: environ 470 Ma pour le gneiss d'Almendralejo (métagranite peralcalin) et environ 425 Ma pour le gneiss de Ribera del Fresno (métagranite leucocrate subalumineux), tous deux avec des rapports initiaux⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr élevés. Ces résultats indiquent un âge post-ordovicien (hercynien) pour le métamorphisme et la déformation tectonique qui ont affecté la région, y compris les gneiss, et éliminent l'hypothèse proposée par ailleurs d'un âge cadomien ou même plus ancien.

Pb isotopes of Gorgona Island (Colombia): isotopic variations correlated with magma type

Lead isotopic results obtained on komatiites and basalts from Gorgona Island provide evidence of large isotopic variations within a restricted area (8 × 2.5 km). The variations are correlated with differences in volcanic rock type. The highest isotopic ratios (²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb～ 19.75) correspond to tholeiites which make up most of the island. The lowest ratios (18.3) correspond to the komatiites of the west coast of the island. Other rock types (komatiites of the east coast, K-tholeiites, picrites and tuffs) have isotopic characteristics intermediate between these two extreme values. These results are explained by the existence of two distinct mantle source regions, and by mixing or contamination between them.     

Triaxial level ellipsoids representing synchronously orbiting satellites

Summary The theory of determination of figures of synchronously orbiting satellites is presented based on equipotential level ellipsoids representing the given external equipotential surfaces. The theory has been applied to seven synchronously orbiting satellites in the solar System. The numerical values of the polar and equatorial flattenings of the level ellipsoids suggest the conclusion that tidal and rotational distortions are responsible for the actual figures of the seven synchronously orbiting satellites.Dedicated to the Memory of Professor Karel P
