Surface air concentrations of 222 Rn, 210 Pb, 7 Be, and fission products at the geographic south pole have been determined during 1973–1974 1974–1975 austral summer seasons. The Rn concentration was generally very low (0.3–0.4 pCi per standard cubic meter). However, on some days, high radon levels, indicative ‘radonic storms,’ were observed. products, from new nuclear tests in 1974, increased as a function time. This indicated that stratospheric reservoir debris still drastically changing...
As part of the U.K. contribution to international Surface Ocean–Lower Atmosphere Study, a series three related projects—DOGEE, SEASAW, and HiWASE—undertook experimental studies processes controlling physical exchange gases sea spray aerosol at surface. The share common goal: reduce high degree uncertainty in current parameterization schemes. wide variety measurements made during studies, which incorporated tracer surfactant release experiments, included direct eddy correlation fluxes,...
Abstract Waves and wave breaking play a significant role in the air–sea exchanges of momentum, sea spray aerosols, trace gases such as CO2, but few direct measurements have been obtained open ocean (far from coast). This paper describes development initial deployments on two research cruises an autonomous spar buoy that was designed to obtain open-ocean measurements. The equipped with capacitance wires accelerometers measure surface elevation breaking, downward-looking still video digital...
Purpose – Food products developed using genetically modified (GM) animals may soon be introduced in Europe and beyond. Their successful commercialisation depends on consumer acceptance, so it is timely to review the existing literature this respect. The paper aims discuss these issues. Design/methodology/approach A systematic identified 42 English language peer reviewed papers assessing public opinion of GM associated with food production. Thematic analysis was applied results identify...
This study aimed to critically review methodologies for ranking of risks related feed/food safety and nutritional hazards, on the basis their anticipated human health impact.An extensive systematic literature was performed identify characterize available risk in fields feed food as well socio-economic field.Risk methods from environmental field were studied determine whether approaches used this could also be applied hazards.The a predefined search protocol.It covered bibliographic databases...
Most estimates of the climatically-important transfer atmospheric gases into, and out of, ocean assume that surface is unbroken by breaking waves. However trapping bubbles in waves introduces an asymmetry this flux. This occurs as a bias towards injecting gas into where it dissolves, against evasion/exsolution previously-dissolved coming solution from oceans eventually reaching atmosphere. Here we use at-sea measurements modelling bubble clouds beneath to show numbers large found metres...
Ruthenium-106 has been observed to migrate in ground water at about the same velocity as tritium from site of an underground nuclear explosion a pumped satellite well 91 meters distant. This finding contradicts prediction, based on laboratory batch sorption measurements, that ruthenium-106 should much lower rate than tritium. To predict migration radionuclides water, more relevant measurements are required.
The societal acceptability of different applications genomic technologies to animal production systems will determine whether their innovation trajectories reach the commercialisation stage. Importantly, technological implementation and trajectories, regulation, policy development need take account public priorities attitudes. More effective co-production practices ensure application animals aligns with are acceptable society. Consumer rejection of, limited demand for, products developed...
The European Clinical Trials Directive (EU 2001; 2001/20/EC) was introduced to improve the efficiency of commercial and academic clinical trials. Concerns have been raised by interested organizations institutions regarding potential for negative impact on non-commercial research. Interested researchers within Group Blood Marrow Transplantation (EBMT) were surveyed determine whether researcher experiences confirmed this view. Following a pilot study, an internet-based questionnaire...
Both crushed (150- to 300-μm) and cored (1.8-mm-diam) samples of SYNROC have been leached with single-pass continuous-flow leaching equipment. Crushed cesium-hollandite were also in a similar experiment. Temperatures used 25° 75°C leachates 0.03 N NaHCO3 distilled water. Leaching rates from SYNROC-C ranked cesium >strontium ≥ calcium >barium >zirconium. A comparison is made between SYNROC, Pacific Northwest Laboratory 76-68 glass beads. This depends on how the surface areas are determined...
