## International Workshop on Advances in the Use of Historical Marine Climate Data: Boulder, Colorado, USA, January 2002

**Recommendations regarding Mean Sea Level Pressure and Wind**
- David Parker
- Hadley Centre, Met Office, UK

## Ideally by early 2003....

- The Hadley Centre global monthly MSLP data set HadSLP should be updated.
- The Terms of Reference of the GCOS MSLP Working Group should be expanded to include surface winds.
- A catalogue of available wind and pressure products should be developed.

## Within 2 years, i.e. by early 2004....

- Florida State University will have a non-global (Pacific & Indian Oceans) data set of surface wind, MSLP, fluxes, and related variables from 1950 onwards.
- Appropriate techniques for the adjustment of both estimated and measured wind speed observations should be investigated and applied.

## ....by early 2004 (2)....

- Monthly wind statistics for 1854 to date should be computed using the adjusted estimated and measured winds.
- The Meteorological Service of Canada has created a high-resolution analysis of winds over the North Atlantic for 1958-1997. The use of historical daily MSLP fields to backdate this analysis  should be investigated.

## ....by early 2004 (3)....

- Biases from the US Maury Collection pressure data set should be investigated.
- More observations on pressure are needed to improve historical MSLP analyses.
- The new JCOMM buoy metadata base should be populated with current and historical data. Merged COADS and WMO Publication No. 47 data 1980-97 should be made available.

## In the 5-year timeframe (i.e. by 2007 for IPCC 4th Assessment)....

- Improved monthly (and daily if possible) surface pressure for land stations should be made available for blended land-marine analysis.
- Improved Reanalysis techniques, currently being developed, should be used to produce a combined daily MSLP and surface wind product for as much of the world as possible back to the late 19th Century.
- For all gridded data sets, error estimates of wind and pressures should include grid box uncertainties and error covariance structures.

## Technical Recommendations

- Data that add the most information to the existing database should be given priority for digitisation.
- The research community should have access to preliminary data. Identification and documentation should clearly distinguish final from interim products, and advise users of potential duplication and lack of QC in the interim products.

## More Technical Recommendations

- Use a new, fully documented format for interim and newly-digitised data.
- Continue development and application of new QC techniques and utilisation of metadata.
- Continue wide distribution of all data in appropriate formats, and share software to access and analyse the data. Data should be available freely, e.g. over the Internet, or at a minimum cost for media.

## 		Coincident Loop

## 		Data Collecting

- Every 200 meters from 0 m to 2400 m
- Transmitter loop 100 m by 100 m
- Data were stacked three times
- Conscious of  man made noise(power lines)

## 	       Data Processing

- Cleaned up data (masked unwanted points)
- Used Occum’s inversion method to fit the data using 15 layers
- Also did 1D inversion to fit layered earth model using 4-6 layers
- Finally put together cross section plotting resistivity vs. depth

## Good vs.. Poor Conductor

- Smaller initial voltage
- Slower V(t) decay
- Large decay constant

- Large initial voltage
- Rapid V(t) decay
- Small decay constant

## Voltage decay as function of time

- 40

- 20

- 0

- 0

- 6

## 		   Cross Section

- 2400

- 0

- 0m

- 400m

## 		Resistive Body

- Located from sites 800 - 1200  from depths of 75 m to 150 m
- TEM shows it well due to thickness of the layer
- Surrounded by a more conductive layer
- Good quality aquifer or magmatic intrusive?

## Meidav’s Salinity-Porosity Nomogram

## 		Potable Water?

- Rock Resistivty = 50 ohm-m
- Formation Factor = 11
- Temperature gradient with depth approximately 27 degrees C/km
- Water resistivity 5 ohm-m
- Salinity approximately 850ppm

## 		     Conclusions

- Water is potable
- Might look at other options before drilling to tap this water
- Further investigation would define salinity more precisely as well as correlation with any existing well data

## ISSUES AND TECHNIQUES IN FINITE ELEMENT MODELING OF THIN-FILM STRUCTURES 

**ISSUES AND TECHNIQUES IN FINITE ELEMENT MODELING OF THIN-FILM STRUCTURES**
**Kara N. Slade, Ph.D.**
- Structural and Thermal Analysis Branch
- NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, VA

- The Solar Thermal Upper Stage (STUS) and the Shooting Star Experiment (SSE) were concepts utilizing inflated torus and strut structures constructed of 2 mil Kapton film to support a lens.

- To facilitate understanding of the structure, individual cylindrical struts were studied first, both experimentally and analytically.
- The results confirmed that the details of fabrication, such as seams, had a significant impact on the behavior of the structure.

- Experimental sine sweep results indicate force-dependent divergence of modes due to coupling.

| Mode number | Direction | Frequency, Hz
No seam | Frequency, Hz
With seam |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | X | 2.18 | 2.18 |
| 1 | Y | 2.18 | 2.33 |
| 2 | X | 28.761 | 27.904 |
| 2 | Y | 28.768 | 29.827 |
| 3 | X | 85.768 | 83.418 |
| 3 | Y | 85.783 | 88.335 |

- A shell element model in MSC/NASTRAN was generated, both with and without the details of the seam included.  The results indicated that inclusion of the seam led to significant differences in the behavior of the model, consistent with experimental results.

- Modal testing of the solar concentrator structure was conducted in both vacuum and ambient conditions.  The results indicated that structural behavior in ambient conditions is completely different from that in vacuum.

- Vacuum Frequency Response       Ambient Frequency Response

- The differences in damping between the two test cases are clearly evident.  As a result, vacuum modal testing is recommended for the purposes of structural characterization.

- Modal damping vs. frequency for vacuum (o symbols) and ambient (+ symbols) testing, 0.5 psig pressure.

- Shell element models of the concentrator and lens were constructed in MSC/NASTRAN, and correlated well to the vacuum test results.

| Mode | Model
(Hz) | Test
(Hz) |
| --- | --- | --- |
| 1 | 0.5 | 0.85 |
| 2 | 4.25 | 3.81 |
| 3 | 5.25 | 5.80 |
| 4 | 13.5 | 13.16 |
| 5 | 27.5 | 26.86 |
| 6 | 30.72 | 34.72 |
| 7 | 35.5 | 36.55 |
| 8 | 39.0 | 39.67 |
| 9 | 44.5 | 42.12 |
| 10 | 47.5 | 44.58 |
| 11 | 49.75 | 46.68 |

- Eigensolution methods on their own, however, produce hundreds of not thousands of modes in the frequency range of interest, making the identification of the relevant behaviors difficult.  By using frequency response methods, global bending modes may be differentiated from radial shell modes.

## Prehospital Care

**Edward Gabriel, M.P.A., AEMT-P**
- Director of Crisis Management
- Walt Disney Corporation

## PREHOSPITAL CAREThe Main Issue For Planners

-     *In the event of a Catastrophic MCE, the emergency medical services (EMS) systems will be called on to provide first-responder rescue, assessment, care, and transportation and access to the emergency medical health care system. *
*The bulk of EMS in this country is provided through a complex system of highly variable organizational structures.*

## RECOMMENDATIONS: EMS PLANNERS

- Use and availability of EMS personnel
- Transport capacity
- Role of dispatch and Public Safety Answering Points

- Plan and implement strategies to maximize to the extent possible:

## RECOMMENDATIONS: EMS PLANNERS

- Mutual aid agreements or interstate compacts to:
- Address licensure and indemnification matters regarding responders
- Address memoranda of understandings (MOUs) among public, volunteer, and private ambulance services
- Coordinate response to potential MCEs

## RECOMMENDATIONS: EMS PLANNERS

- Use natural opportunities to exercise disaster planning
- Develop strategies to identify large numbers of young children who may be separated from parents
- Develop strategies to identify and respond to vulnerable populations

## RECOMMENDATIONS: EMS PLANNERS 

- Develop partnerships with Federal, State, and local stakeholders to clarify roles, resources, and responses to potential MCEs
- Improve communication and coordination strategies and backup plans
- Exercise, evaluate, modify, and refine MCE plans

## FORGING PARTNERSHIPS AT ALL LEVELS

- “Emergency management is really about building relationships, whether you are in the public or private sector.”
- “And in building those relationships, it is important to remember not to *tell*, but to *talk*.”

- Phil Christensen &
- The TES Science Team
- Presentation  to NAI MWG
- by Vicky Hamilton
- 8 January 2001

## Overview

- Key Questions
- Site Selection Considerations
- Engineering Constraints
- Instrumental Capabilities
- Sinus Meridiani Hematite
- Proposed Mechanisms of Formation
- Conclusions

## Key Questions

- Focus on water & sites of exobiological interest -- where, when, how long?
- Existence of aqueous or hydrothermal deposits
- Existence/location of carbonates
- Composition and abundance of weathering products

## Site Selection Considerations

- Engineering constraints
- Instrumental capabilities
- PanCam
- Mini-TES spectrometer
- Mossbauer spectrometer
- Alpha Proton X-ray spectrometer
- Microscopic Imager

## Engineering Constraints

- Latitude
- MER-A 	-15° to +5°
- MER-B 	-10° to +10° (new)
- MOLA elevation < -1.3 km
- Slope < 15°
- Rock abundance < 20%
- FCI < 125-165 J m -2 s -1/2 k-1
- No high albedo sites

## Instrument Capabilities

- Rock, coating, and soil analyses
- Optimal conditions for all instruments favor low dust
- Spectral discrimination
- Surface texture discrimination
-   Sinus Meridiani site has known surface materials useful for *in situ* “calibration” of _both_ landed instrument packages (*Christensen et al.* [2000])
- Crystalline hematite
- Basaltic material

## Sinus Meridiani Hematite

- Unique deposit of crystalline hematite
- Coarse-grained  (10-100’s μm)
- Not nanophase
- Covers ~10-15% of surface
- Excellent correlation of hematite with smooth, layered, friable unit
- Probable sedimentary origin
- MOC images confirm layering in smooth unit

## Hematite Formation Mechanisms

- I)	Chemical precipitation - extensive near-surface water
- 1)	Precipitation from ambient, Fe-rich water (oxide iron formations)
- 2)	Precipitation from hydrothermal fluids
- 3)	Low-temperature dissolution and precipitation through mobile groundwater leaching
- 4)	Surface weathering and coatings
- II)	Thermal oxidation of magnetite-rich lava

## Hematite Summary

- Crystalline hematite in Sinus Meridiani occurs *in situ* in a sedimentary rock formation composed primarily of basaltic material with 10-15% hematite
- Hematite formed by precipitation from aqueous fluids under either ambient or hydrothermal conditions
- Evidence for aqueous mineralization indicates long-term stability of near-surface water on early Mars

## Sinus Meridiani sites meet engineering constraints
Unique mineralization in Sinus Meridiani presents intriguing, water-linked environment for further investigation
Current knowledge of Sinus Meridiani mineralogy presents a rare opportunity for MER instruments on both rovers

- Oak Ridge National Laboratory, Oak Ridge, TN 37831, USA
- Joint Institute for Heavy-Ion Research, Oak Ridge, Tennessee, 37831, USA
- Institute of Nuclear Research and Nuclear Energy, Bulgarian Academy of Sciences, Sofia, Bulgaria
- Institute of Theoretical Physics, Warsaw University, ul. Hȯza 69, 00-681 Warsaw, Poland

## Large-Scale Mass Table Calculations

- Calculations with existing energy density functionals
- Comparison with experimental data (filters etc.) to understandwhat is missing
- Testing new terms/functionals to improve the agreement
- Experimental data
- Bench mark results
- Producing new fit for existing parameters
- Nuclear matter
- Experimental data
- Bench mark results
- New physics when analyzing the global trends (drip lines, odd nuclei, ...)

## Codes

- Fortran codes for control against exact integration
- HFBRAD – box, coordinate space, spherical symmetry
- 2Dspline – rectangular box, splines, axial/parity symmetry
- Official code for UNEDF calculations
- HFODD – 3D in HO basis, symmetry unrestricted, time-odd components, cranking, projections ...
- Approximately 4 h 39 min CPU per nucleus (120Sn)
- Fast alternative for ground-state calculations
- HFBTHO – 2D in HO/THO basis, axial/parity symmetry
- Approximately 3 min CPU per nucleus (120Sn)

## HFODD/HFBTHO even-even nuclei

- HFODD/HFBTHO even-even nuclei

## HFODD/HFBTHO odd nuclei

## Scale of the Problem

- Science scales with processors

-  The largest mass table map from SkM* forces  enlarged with 10 more nuclei beyond both drip lines contains altogether 2525 even-even nuclei
-  A single processor calculates each nucleus 3 times (prolate, oblate, spherical) and records all nuclear characteristics and blocking candidates
-  Using 2525 processors - about 4 CPU hours

-  The resulting even-even mass table contains 2731 nuclei which generate altogether 250754 odd-even and odd-odd states/nuclei at 0.5 MeV threshold for the blocking candidates
-  Using 10 000 processors - about 24 CPU hours

**Even-Even Nuclei**

**Odd Nuclei**

## At the end of the run:
2032 converge for up to 500 iterations 
  404 converge up to    1000 iterations  
  123 converge up to    2000 iterations
  152 converge up to    6000 iterations
    26 which still do not converge

- 2032 converge for up to 500 iterations
-   404 converge up to    1000 iterations
-   123 converge up to    2000 iterations
-   152 converge up to    6000 iterations
-     26 which still do not converge

- Broyden Mixing

- A typical run for the whole even-even mass chart contains about 2731 different bound nuclear states which identify the ground states for all 1527 even-even nuclei entering the mass chart between nuclear drip lines.

## Broyden Mixing

## To do list

- Complete mass tables with all major Skyrme functionals
- Interface HFODD/HFBTHO
- Analysis of the global trends
- New terms/functionals
- Work on the fitting strategy
