**Introduction**
_**Possible mechanisms for TTL dehydration**_
***Gradual dehydration*****: Freeze drying during gradual transport across isentropes, possibly enhanced by gravity waves****1, 2****.**
***Convective dehydration*****: TTL mixing  with cold dry air from deep convection****3****.**
_**Problems with these mechanisms**_
**On small spatial scales the TTL shows wide spatial variability in ********HDO. Values lie between those expected from Rayleigh distillation and those found in surface airmasses****4****. *****Gradual dehydration alone cannot explain observed mixing ratios of ************-HDO******.***
**Convective dehydration presumes all ice crystals in the tops of deep convection settle immediately rather than evaporate; *****but ice crystals at such cold temperatures tend to be too small***** *****to settle quickly****** *****5****.**

**Hypothetical dehydration mechanism**

**Evidence 3**
***Cirrus formed in the TTL has values of total water, ************HDO and potential temperature all intermediate to values found in convective outflow  and TTL air. Mixing between the TTL and convection has occurred. ***

**WB-57F measurements from 28****th**** July during CRYSTAL-FACE. A: Temperature. B: Mixing ratios of water vapor (black), saturation of water vapor (gray), and total water (vapor + ice) (red). C: Fractionation of HDO.**

**Evidence 4**
***Parcel model simulations show mixing between convection and pileus should deepen dehydration and maintain a stratiform cloud, even in the trough of the gravity wave.***

**Deep convection forces TTL isotherms at level A upwards, nucleating a pileus cloud layer at level B.**
**The pileus forms a vellum over the convective dome.**
**The pileus layer is punctured by the rising deep convection and mixes, increasing total water in the pileus, while decreasing its temperature. **
**The convection subsides. Pileus cloud oscillates around level A, further decreasing its minimum temperature. Since the pileus is now moistened, it is now solid stratiform tropopause cirrus. The cirrus gradually precipitates as radiative heating lofts the cirrus across the tropopause. Air crossing the TTL is dehydrated to ~1.6 times the saturation vapor mixing ratio at the temperature of the tropopause temperature *****minus the temperature perturbation due to oscillation and mixing.***

## Horizontal Variability In Microphysical Properties of Mixed-Phase Arctic Clouds 

**Horizontal Variability In Microphysical Properties of Mixed-Phase Arctic Clouds **
**David Brown, Michael Poellot – University of North Dakota**

- Clouds are strong modulators of the radiative budget in the Arctic. Their influence depends in part on microphysical properties such as particle size, liquid water path and particle phase. A good knowledge of the spatial and temporal variability of these properties is necessary for accurate model parameterizations.  Data from the 2004 Mixed-Phase Arctic Cloud Experiment (M-PACE) have been analyzed to provide a quantitative estimate of the horizontal scale of the variability in microphysical cloud properties within individual cloud fields.  A trajectory analysis has also been performed to relate air parcel trajectories to changes in horizontal variability of cloud properties from day to day during the experiment.

**Horizontal Scale Analysis:**

- Methodology:
- Fourier analysis of in-situ cloud microphysical data
- Determine scales of greatest variability
- Challenges:
- Level leg samples not long enough to resolve large scales
- Must use time series of ramped ascents and descents, contain intervals of no cloud data
- Calculate autocovariance function of time series and use to derive power spectrum (Jenkins and Watts 1968)
- Can only perform analysis on parameters that do not vary with height (number concentration)
- Sampling Profiles:

- Assumptions:
- Constant true airspeed of 80 m s-1
- Variability is in horizontal direction
- Vertical displacement is negligible relative to horizontal
- Data:
- October 9, 2004
- FSSP Total Droplet Concentration
- Time series of ramped ascents and descents
- 76096 – 78542 s.f.m. UTC
- 2447 s, 195.76 km
- Results:

**HYSPLIT Trajectory Analysis:**

- Trajectory analysis using NOAA HYSPLIT model performed for flight cases during second synoptic regime of M-PACE (Draxler and Hess 1998)
- Regime consisted of building high pressure over ice pack northeast of Alaska coast (Verlinde, et al. 2007)
- Associated northeast flow with considerable fetch along Arctic Ocean
- Oct. 4 – 8 scattered, thin, multi-layer clouds, Oct. 9 – 15 single layer stratus
- Observations show less liquid water, more ice in Oct. 4 – 8 clouds
- Figures 7 and 8 shows significant variation in spatial structure of cloud properties during regime
- HYSPLIT analysis shown in fig. (6) shows significant differences in trajectories on Oct. 6 and 9
- Oct. 6: Trajectories’ paths mostly over land, synoptic scale upward motion
- Oct. 9: Trajectories’ paths over ocean, synoptic scale subsidence
- Differences in trajectories may influence parameters that affect spatial structure of cloud properties

## Soft Lithographic Patterning of EMI Shields onto Concave Missile Domes 

- Most techniques for defining micro-scale features, such as e-beam writing, standard photolithography, and ink jet printing, are not readily suitable for use on non-flat surfaces. The current method of decorating domes with a fine grid illustrates the problem. First, the metal (usually gold) is vapor deposited onto the inside surface of the dome. The desired pattern is then written directly on the surface in photoresist using a laser writing process; the writing alone requires about an hour of processing time. Finally, the dome is dipped into an etch bath, leaving only the metal defined by the photoresist pattern. This process results in a grid that is elongated near the edges of the dome. Furthermore, the method serially produces decorated domes in a labor and equipment intensive process. A cost-effective and rapid method (preferably one that does not use expensive equipment in the final fabrication of the decorated domes) is needed to mass produce missiles with advanced shielding and sensing capabilities.
- Economical EMI shielding that will create minimal interference with useful radiation will benefit military systems beyond missiles, such as ubiquitous sensors, spacecraft and aircraft.

## Impact of Quick Order Sets Guidance of Quinolone Use on Patient Safety

- Robert Eng MD, Naeem Mian RPh, Barbara Hixon, Ric Mercer PhD

## Need & Setting

- VA PBM selects national quinolone as gatifloxacin – 2005
- VA PBM selects national quinolone as moxifloxacin for respiratory infections -2006
- Problem: moxifloxacin does not get into urine for urine infections
- Problem: moxifloxacin has no laboratory standards for reporting active or not against bacteria other than respiratory bacteria
- PBM recommends ciprofloxacin for UTI (inexpensive)
- PBM allows use of other quinolones (levofloxacin for non-urine, non-respiratory infections [levofloacin])

## Justification for PBM Recoomendations

- Ciprofloxacin $0.095 per dose (500 mg)
- Gatifloxacin $1.29 per dose (400 mg)
- Levofloxacin $2.33 per dose (500 mg)
- Moxifloxacin $1.19 per dose (400 mg)
- VA New Jersey projected to use 2400 doses or annual savings of
- $27,000 between moxi and levo
- $53,000 between cipro and levo

## Potential Hazards

- Provide orders moxifloxacin for urine infection- no or little activity, patient’s infection gets worse or develops sepsis with risk for death
- Provider orders ciprofloxacin for respiratory infection – low activity or ineffective for the most common bacteria in causing pneumonia - pneumococcus

## Proposed Solution

- Provide a set of quick orders for most antibiotic indications (types of infections)
- Inpatients (IV and limited Oral)
- Ambulatory Care (Oral)
- Emergency Room (IV and Oral)
- Hide problem antibiotics from the routine Medication pick list using the “Medication Tab” to force quick orders use

## Results Summary

## Safety Achieved

- No cases of moxifloxacin used for UTI- search method by Reminder Report using ICD9 codes for UTI and using moxifloxacin for drug
- No cases of ciprofloxacin used for bronchitis or pneumonia by Reminder Report search

## Conclusions

**Safe use of quinolones achieved through guided quick orders**
**2. Use of less expensive antibiotics achieved as seen with an increase in use of **
**doxycycline (less expensive) over quinolones (more expensive) **
**3. One broad-spectrum antibiotic use dramatically reduced as seen with imipenem**
**4. Limited reduction in use of another broad-spectrum antibiotic –pip/taz**
**5. Quick orders are easy to maintain/modify **

- Consumer Tips

**CUSTOMER SERVICE CENTERS**
******   **Utilize pre-recorded messages that respond to your center’s most frequently asked
-       questions.  Update your recordings regularly.
-    Offer an option to speak to a live person at the beginning of your message.
-    Closely monitor a caller’s holding time. Every ten seconds on hold seems like a
-       minute to the caller.  No one should be in the queue longer than one minute.
-    Representatives should give their name as soon as they pick up the call, speaking
-       clearly and loudly enough to be heard and understood.
-    Make sure representatives are attuned to special language and accessibility needs of
-       callers.  If you use pre-recorded messages, provide a TTY number for deaf, hard of
-       hearing, and speech disabled callers.
-    Regularly train and monitor representatives to ensure they are giving callers accurate
-       and consist information.  If the caller is asking about something the representative
-       knows nothing about, the call should immediately be transferred to a specialist for
-       that area.
-    Be tactful in dealing with difficult callers; they are often agitated and sensitive before
-       making their call.  Representatives should not make a caller feel inferior if the
-       information they need is not at the caller’s fingertips.
-    Be patient and skilled in getting the pertinent information from a caller.  Never
-       contradict the caller.
-    If a caller must be transferred, have the representative explain why, giving the
-       name and number of the person to whom the call is being transferred.
-    Always have a supervisor available.
-    Callbacks should be made as promised, and in a timely manner.

## Three reasons in favor of variable beta.

-  2) Due to the bigger phase oscillation the particles are
- appeared in the nonlinear  part  of  the  separatrix,  which  one  causes  the growth  of  the  longitudinal emittance.

- 1) We can not afford low
- efficiency  due to the beam sliding
- relatively of RF wave.

## Conclusion

-  RT cavities between RFQ and SC is a right decision. “Due to several reasons which are discussed in the paper there is a huge advantageous to use independently phased RT CH-cavities between the RFQ and SC sections in the energy range 3-15 MeV.”  (P.Ostroumov et all for PAC05, to be published)
-  Parameters of front end are still changing every day, but in our search we are well beyond all restrictions (power, accelerating rate, length)
-  Our goal #1 at the moment: prepare full set of fields for beam dynamic simulations at ANL.  Even if it is not final version.

## NASA/FAA Flight Test –Flammability Analysis System

- International Aircraft Fire Protection Working Group
- Atlantic City, NJ
- November 6, 2003

- Steve Summer
- Project Engineer
- Federal Aviation Administration
- Fire Safety Branch, AAR-440

## Objective

- To date, real-time flammability (hydrocarbon) data in flight has yet to be obtained from fuel tanks (CWT or wing)
- Lab based instruments in use at the FAA are based on a flame-ionization detection (FID) technique, and are unsuitable for in-flight use
- Such a system must maximize safety and data reliability while being able to handle the rigors of a flight environment (vibration, pressure & temperature changes, etc...)

## FAS System Overview

- The FAS uses a Non-Dispersive Infrared (NDIR) Analyzer to measure fuel tank flammability in the form of total hydrocarbons (THC)

- Sample stream must be heated at all points leading to the NDIR to prevent condensation of fuel vapors
- Overall system consists of two units
- Pallet Mounted NDIR Analyzer
- Rack Mounted Sampling System

## FAS System Overview

- Pallet Mounted NDIR Analyzer:
- Custom built by Rosemount Analytical specifically for this application
- Separated into two sections – electronics and sample stream
- Sample stream section temperature controlled to 200°F
- Entire unit continuously purged

## FAS System Overview

**FAS System Overview**

- Rack Mounted Sampling System:
- Supplies a temperature, pressure and flow controlled sample to the NDIR utilizing four components:
- Single stage diaphragm pump pulls sample from CWT
- Sampling conditioning unit actively controls pressure and flow of sample supplied to NDIR
- Heated box maintains a 200°F sample
- Electronics panel houses all pressure/temperature electronic control units
- Components containing sample lines are continuously purged

## FAS – Safety Features

- System safety features include:
- Diaphragm pump is safe for explosive atmosphere and pump motor has failure containment standard
- Pump motor and all electronics kept separated from sample stream where possible
- All enclosures that sample passes through are continuously purged
- Float valve, fluid trap and flash arrestor on sample inlet

## FAS Block Diagram

## FAS – Performance

## Summary

- The FAS has been shown to accurately measure a sample of 2 & 4% propane from sea level to ~35 kft with an accuracy of 0.1%
- The FAS gave consistent readings when compared to a typical FID type analyzer
- The FAS has ability to accurately and safely monitor fuel tank flammability in-flight, real-time

- Motivation with 100-year long time series
- Modern data
- The role of ice
- Some implications

## The Large Lakes Observatory

- Large Lakes around the world
- Geology, Chemistry, Biology, Physics
- An emphasis on climate

## Slide 8

## 101-year series at St. Mary’s

## Summer temperatures

## Summer Temperatures

## The Global Air Temp record

- ~0.11C/yr

## Regional AT trend

- ~0.058C/yr

## But is St Marys Representative?

- Three NDBC buoys in Lake Superior
- 1980-present
- Surface water temp + meteorology
- Well calibrated

## Superior NOAA buoys (4500x)

## Comparing summer means, NOAA to St. Marys

## 1980-present

- ~0.11C/yr

- ~0.10C/yr

- ~0.11C/yr

## An odd property of Fresh water

- Density (mass per volume) maximum at 4°C
- Below 4°C, cold water sits on top of warm
- Above 4°C, warm water sits on top of cold
- When lake warms up through 4°C, typically form a thin “warm cap” which can warm rapidly

## What about Ice?

- Mean ice cover decreasing steadily over period of record (L. Superior, 1 Dec-31 May)

- ~0.42%/yr

## So What?

- Ice dramatically lowers albedo of lake surface, significantly reducing absorption of late winter/springtime shortwave radiation
- Delays onset of “positive” stratification

## Summer temperature 

- Summer WT strongly dependent on previous winter’s ice cover

## Season Start, Finish, SSM

- ~12 days earlier/100y

- ~18 days later/100y

## Length of Stratified season, SSM

- ~30 days longer/100y

## Effects on water level?

- Greater water temperatures may be leading to greater evaporation
- More exposed water in the winter may be leading to greater evaporation

## Conclusions

- Water temperatures rising rapidly in Superior (and Huron and Michigan!)
- Earlier overturn due to decrease in ice appears to be culprit
- Increase in length of  stratified season (160d instead of 130d) over the last century
- Decrease in ice and increased temperature may be playing a role in declining water levels

## A few additional comments

- No “urban Heat Island” issues
- Impact on ecosystems?
- Combined warmer and deeper summer surface layer and regional climate

## What Now?

- Numerical models (of all sorts) to better understand role of ice in large lakes
- Numerical models of impact on carbon cycling, nutrient chemistry, etc
- Observations of surface fluxes, subsurface measurements

## Sure Spot® Dosimeter BadgeGMD Products, Bacharach, Inc. of Pennsylvania

- Innovation
-   - Monitoring personnel exposed to toxic vapors became more effective when GMD Products, Bacharach Inc., Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, designed a reliable colorimetric vapor  monitoring dosimeter for NASA, thus creating  the Sure-Spot® Dosimeter Badges for Hydrazine. Through Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) contracts with GMD, a two-chemistry badge was developed to monitor personnel exposure to hydrazine (Hz) and monomethyl hydrazine (MMH) at NASA’s Kennedy Space Center (KSC).

- Photo

- Accomplishments
- -  GMD modified the NASA technology to create a new commercial product.
- -  The disposable badge is an inexpensive and effective tool for monitoring exposure and risk.
- -  The badge provides immediate visual warning, measures actual exposure doses.
- -  Badges are individually sealed, numbered and dated for shelf life for maximum reliability.
-    It also has sensitivity for low doses and an extended upper range for maximum detection.
- -  Badges have been used by major chemical companies world-wide.
- -  NASA relies on the badges for monitoring needs in various locations throughout KSC.

- Commercialization
- -  The lightweight, easy-to-use, sensitive, and reliable disposable badges can help minimize the risks associated with the exposure of personnel to toxic gases.
- -  The badge has two separate paper tape chemistries in one badge; a pair of circular windows in the badge allow each tape to be exposed and observed.
- - When exposed to hydrazine or MMH, both tapes change colors, providing an immediate visual alarm.  By using a Dose Estimator the user can match the stain density to available dose information and determine the approximate exposure level.

- Government/Science Applications
- - KSC  has a need for a dosimeter badge for the detection of hydrazine and monomethyl hydrazine.
- - Through Small Business Innovative Research (SBIR) Phase I and II contracts with GMD Systems (now Bacharach), a prototype two-chemistry badge was developed.
- - KSC assigned a Federal Stock Item Number to the badges enabling KSC safety and operational personnel to begin using them.   Risk areas where exposure monitoring is required include facilities where workers are engaged in assembly and operational handling of spacecraft, missiles, and aircraft auxiliary power units in which fuels are used.
