Coronal Condensations Caused by Magnetic Reconnection between Solar Coronal Loops
Authors: Li Leping , Zhang Jun , Peter Hardi , Chitta Lakshmi Pradeep , Su Jiangtao , Xia Chun , Song Hongqiang , Hou Yijun
Published: August 2018

Employing Solar Dynamics Observatory/Atmospheric Imaging Assembly (AIA) multi-wavelength images, we report the coronal condensation during the magnetic reconnection (MR) between a system of open and closed coronal loops. Higher-lying magnetically open structures, observed in AIA 171 Å images above the solar limb, move downward and interact with the lower-lying closed loops, resulting in the formation of dips in the former. An X-type structure forms at the interface. The interacting loops reconnect and disappear. Two sets of newly reconnected loops then form and recede from the MR region. During the MR process, bright emission appears sequentially in the AIA 131 and 304 Å channels repeatedly in the dips of higher-lying open structures. This indicates the cooling and condensation process of hotter plasma from ∼0.9 MK down to ∼0.6 MK, and then to ∼0.05 MK, also supported by the light curves of the AIA 171, 131, and 304 Å channels. The part of higher-lying open structures supporting the condensation participate in the successive MR. Without support from underlying loops, the condensation then rains back to the solar surface along the newly reconnected loops. Our results suggest that the MR between coronal loops leads to the condensation of hotter coronal plasma and its downflows. MR thus plays an active role in the mass cycle of coronal plasma because it can initiate the catastrophic cooling and condensation. This underlines that the magnetic and thermal evolution has to be treated together and cannot be separated, even in the case of catastrophic cooling.
The Minimum Mass of Rotating Main-sequence Stars and its Impact on the Nature of Extended Main-sequence Turnoffs in Intermediate-age Star Clusters in the Magellanic Clouds∗

Published: August 2018

Extended main-sequence turnoffs (eMSTOs) are a common feature in color–magnitude diagrams (CMDs) of young and intermediate-age star clusters in the Magellanic Clouds. The nature of eMSTOs is still debated. The most popular scenarios are extended star formation and ranges of stellar rotation rates. Here, we study implications of a kink feature in the main sequence (MS) of young star clusters in the Large Magellanic Cloud (LMC). This kink shows up very clearly in new Hubble Space Telescope observations of the 700 Myr old cluster NGC 1831 and is located below the region in the CMD where multiple or wide MSs, which are known to occur in young clusters and thought to be due to varying rotation rates, merge together into a single MS. The kink occurs at an initial stellar mass of 1.45 ± 0.02 M
⊙; we posit that it represents a lower limit to the mass below which the effects of rotation on the energy output of stars are rendered negligible at the metallicity of these clusters. Evaluating the positions of stars with this initial mass in CMDs of massive LMC star clusters with ages of ∼1.7 Gyr that feature wide eMSTOs, we find that such stars are located in a region where the eMSTO is already significantly wider than the MS below it. This strongly suggests that stellar rotation cannot fully explain the wide extent of eMSTOs in massive intermediate-age clusters in the Magellanic Clouds. A distribution of stellar ages still seems necessary to explain the eMSTO phenomenon.
Être parent… tout un cheminement

Published: August 2018

Dans le cadre de leur travail en protection de l’enfance, les auteurs de ce texte proposent une réflexion sur une expérience particulière de groupes de parents. L’utilisation d’objets médiateurs est pensée comme support aux processus individuels et familiaux. L’expérience de près de cinq ans d’un dispositif (« Chemins de parents ») a montré que le jeu peut devenir un espace tiers lorsque la pensée est en panne, lorsque le dire n’est pas possible. Cet article reprend les supports théoriques qui furent une base du travail mené avec les familles pendant plusieurs mois et présente concrètement le dispositif tel qu’il a pu être mis en place. Il montre comment un objet de médiation ludique a permis d’ouvrir les champs du possible en matière d’accompagnement, poussant les professionnels à sortir du conventionnel et apportant une légèreté facilitant de la part des parents l’expression de souffrances difficiles à évoquer.
ARTICLE RETIRÉ : Le processus de mise en place de la thérapie multifamiliale : le récit d’une expérience inédite en Russie
Authors: Hiers Svetlana
Published: August 2018

L’article présente les principes d’organisation d’un programme thérapeutique dans son contexte culturel russe. Nous avons suivi l’évolution du cadre groupal mère-enfant vers la thérapie multifamiliale ( tmf ). L’émergence massive des phénomènes de groupe, illustrée par une séquence clinique, a conduit au changement de paradigme au profit de la psychanalyse multifamiliale groupale. Encadré par une équipe de psychologues, le dispositif tmf s’adresse aux enfants présentant troubles du comportement, dysharmonie ou bien retard du développement. La constellation équipe-familles, que l’auteur propose d’appeler un néo-groupe thérapeutique multifamilial (Granjon, 1987), favorise les remaniements des liens parents-enfants. L’apport du travail en équipe est précieux pour penser le groupe psychanalytique multifamilial.
Les liaisons hétérosexuelles et homosexuelles dans le couple
Authors: Dupré La Tour Monique
Published: August 2018

L’auteure de cet article, thérapeute de couple, est partie d’un travail d’Annick Houel qui, dans L’adultère au féminin et son roman , écrit que les héroïnes des romans nouent une relation passionnelle à leur amant sous la protection de leur mari, rejouant la relation primaire à la mère. À partir de cas cliniques de personnes reçues en consultation, le sens de l’adultère dans l’organisation du couple sera interrogé, qu’il s’agisse de relation hétéro ou homosexuelle, pour le couple et/ou pour la liaison. Chaque cas permet de découvrir des soubassements ignorés des conjoints, soubassements que la liaison a parfois organisés ou vient révéler dans la relation de couple, et qui dans un temps de vie font retour et demandent à être élaborés.

Published: August 2018

Las intervenciones arqueológicas efectuadas a partir del año 2008 en el yacimiento de Cova Eirós (Triacastela, Lugo), pusieron a la luz evidencias materiales de diferentes contextos cronológicos. En este trabajo se aborda el análisis e interpretación de uno de los elementos de la cultura material más representativo de los depósitos de Cova Eirós, correspondiente a la cerámica de época histórica. Destaca la amplia presencia de tipos de época medieval, principalmente de la fase inicial y plena y de manera testimonial de Época Romana y Tardorromana. El grueso de estos materiales cerámicos pertenece a la producción de cerámica gris medieval del noroeste peninsular, siendo identificadas formas inéditas, cuanto menos desde el punto de vista historiográfico. Asimismo, se destaca la excepcional posición estratigráfica de buena parte de estos materiales, vinculados a contextos cerrados (fosas), sobre las que se llevan realizando dataciones radiocarbónicas, permitiendo asociar estas formas a dataciones de carácter absoluto. De este modo, las ocupaciones medievales en Cova Eirós pueden considerarse como reflejo de los cambios en la estructuración del territorio que se producen entre los siglos VIII-XI en el Noroeste peninsular y que son la raíz del poblamiento rural gallego.

Guerra Civil y reclutamiento en la colectividad gallega en Argentina: la Acción Gallega de Caballeros de Santiago
Authors: Velasco Martínez Luis
Published: August 2018

El impacto de la guerra civil española en Iberoamérica no ha sido lo suficientemente estudiado hasta la fecha. La mayoría de estudios al respecto se centran en la movilización de recursos a favor del esfuerzo republicano, obviando la organización de los apoyos a los sublevados. A su vez, tampoco se han realizado estudios sobre la organización de estos apoyos en el entramado asociativo de las colectividades subestatales españolas. Se analizan fuentes provenientes de la Delegación Nacional del Servicio Exterior de Falange, y de organizaciones autónomas creadas en Argentina entre los años 1936 y 1940. Se confrontan con los estudios previos sobre la movilización en el campo republicano. El artículo se centra en la organización de apoyos a los franquistas en el marco de la colectividad gallega a través de un estudio de caso. Se concluye que los apoyos a la sublevación entre la colonia española fue mayor a lo estimado anteriormente y que entre estos también figuraron grupos e individuos con una fuerte impronta en defensa de la identidad y los símbolos de Galicia.

Semantic Health Mediation and Access Control Manager for Interoperability Among Healthcare Systems
Authors: Alamri Abdullah
Published: August 2018

Healthcare systems have evolved to become more patient-centric. Many efforts have been made to transform paper-based patient data to automated medical information by developing electronic healthcare records (EHRs). Several international EHRs standards have been enabling healthcare interoperability and communication among a wide variety of medical centres. It is a dual-model methodology which comprises a reference information model and an archetype model. The archetype is responsible for the definition of clinical concepts which has limitations in terms of supporting complex reasoning and knowledge discovery requirements. The objective of this article is to propose a semantic-mediation architecture to support semantic interoperability among healthcare organizations. It provides an intermediate semantic layer to exploit clinical information based on richer ontological representations to create a “model of meaning” for enabling semantic mediation. The proposed model also provides secure mechanisms to allow interoperable sharing of patient data between healthcare organizations.
IL-2–Anti–IL-2 Monoclonal Antibody Immune Complexes Inhibit Collagen-Induced Arthritis by Augmenting Regulatory T Cell Functions

Published: August 2018

IL-2 induces regulatory T cells (Tregs) and reduces disease severity, such as in graft-versus-host disease and systemic lupus erythematosus. To investigate the regulatory network of IL-2 in rheumatoid arthritis, we examined the effects of IL-2–anti–IL-2 mAb immune complexes (IL-2ICs) in a rheumatoid arthritis model of collagen-induced arthritis (CIA). CIA was induced in male DBA/1 mice by two immunizations with type II collagen at 3-wk intervals. IL-2ICs were prepared by mixing 5 μg of an anti–IL-2 mAb (clone JES6-1D) with 1 μg of mouse IL-2 and were injected i.p. every day for 3 d. Mouse paws were scored for arthritis using a macroscopic scoring system. Th1, Th2, Th17, and Tregs were analyzed by flow cytometry. Joint histopathology was examined by H&E and immunohistochemical staining. Treg functions were examined by studying in vitro suppression using flow cytometry. IL-2IC administration effectively elicited a 1.6-fold expansion of CD4+Foxp3+ Tregs in peripheral blood cells relative to that found in control mice. IL-2IC treatment significantly inhibited arthritis in CIA mice. Histopathological examination of joints revealed inhibited synovial cell proliferation and IL-17, IL-6, and TNF-α levels but increased Foxp3+ Tregs after IL-2IC treatment. Flow cytometric examination of spleen cells revealed reduced IFN-γ– and IL-17–producing cells and increased IL-10–producing Tregs after IL-2IC treatment. The suppressive activities of CD4+CD25+ Tregs induced by IL-2ICs were stronger than those in untreated mice. IL-2ICs inhibited arthritis by augmenting not only Treg numbers but also Treg functions, which play regulatory roles in autoimmune arthritis.
Sialic Acid Ligand Binding of CD22 and Siglec-G Determines Distinct B Cell Functions but Is Dispensable for B Cell Tolerance Induction
Authors: Özgör Lamia , Meyer Sarah J. , Korn Marina , Terörde Klara , Nitschke Lars
Published: August 2018

Siglec-G and CD22 are inhibitory receptors on B cells and play an important role in the maintenance of tolerance. Although both molecules are expressed on all B cell populations at a similar level, Siglec-G was found to regulate exclusively B1a cells, whereas CD22 functions as an inhibitory receptor specifically on B2 cells. It is known that the mechanistic function of both Siglecs is regulated by sialic acid binding in a reciprocal manner, although it was not known until now how B cells would act when both Siglec-G and CD22 lack their ability to bind sialic acids. We answered this question by analyzing Siglec-G R120E x CD22 R130E mice. These mice show decreased numbers of mature recirculating B cells in the bone marrow similar to mice with mutations in CD22. Also, they show an increased B1a cell population in peritoneal cavity and a skewed BCR repertoire in peritoneal B1a cells, which is characteristic for mice with mutated Siglec-G. Ca2+ mobilization was strongly reduced in B2 cells and was altered in peritoneal B1a cells, whereas B cell survival was neither affected in B2 cells nor in B1a cells. Also, aging Siglec-G R120E x CD22 R130E mice do neither develop a general hyperactivated immune status nor autoimmunity. This demonstrates that Siglec binding to sialic acids as abundant self-ligands cannot be a dominant mechanism for the Siglec-mediated B cell tolerance induction.
Phenomenological-narrative contributions to understand the narrative strategies that shape the autobiographical account throughout different moments of the therapeutic process
Authors: Duero Dante Gabriel , Osorio Villegas Francisco Javier
Published: August 2018

Different studies suggest that the strategies and narrative styles that people use to construct their autobiographical accounts have repercussions on their self-organization, as well as on their identity experience and their conception of the world. Empirical evidence supports changes in different aspects related to process, structure, and content in the narrative of clients during the course of the therapeutic process; these, in turn, seem to condition the course and the results of the process. In this paper we will seek to show, based on a case study and through the application of a method of phenomenological-narrative analysis, what are the predominant narrative strategies that a client uses in order to shape her autobiographical narrative in the initial and final moments of her psychotherapeutic process. Our data suggest that the narrative strategies at the beginning and end of the therapy are qualitatively differentiable. Changes are observed in the plot of the respective accounts, as well as a differentiated mode in the use of narrative functions. More specifically toward the end of psychotherapy, the client makes a deeper characterization of herself and others, based on predicates of a subjectivating, interpretive, and evaluative-reflective kind. She also predominantly uses proconcluding metacomments, which could facilitate the integration of problematic experiences. In summary, our data suggest that after a successful therapeutic process the client uses more complex and integrated narrative strategies for the construction of her autobiographical account.
Mucinous Neoplasm of the Appendix as a Mimic of Cystic Adnexal Pathology
Authors: Hutchinson Chris , Lyske Jonathan , Patel Vimal , Low Gavin
Published: August 2018

Pelvic pain presents a common diagnostic conundrum with a myriad of causes ranging from benign and trivial to malignant and emergent. We present a case where a mucinous neoplasm of the appendix acted as a mimic for tubular adnexal pathology on imaging. With the associated imaging findings on ultrasound, computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging, we wish to raise awareness of mucinous tumors of the appendix when tubular right adnexal pathology is present both in the presence of pelvic or abdominal pain or when noted incidentally. Tubular pathology such as uncomplicated paraovarian cysts or hydrosalpinx is frequently treated conservatively with long-interval follow-up imaging or left to clinical follow-up. Thus, if incorrectly diagnosed as tubular pathology, an appendix mucocele or mucinous neoplasm of the appendix is likely to be undertreated. We wish to clarify some of the confusion around nomenclature and classification of the multiple entities that are comprised by the terms mucocele and mucinous tumor of the appendix.
Neonatal hyperlipidemia with pancreatitis
Authors: Shah MH , Roshan R , Desai R , Kadam SS
Published: August 2018

Lipoprotein lipase (LPL) deficiency is an autosomal recessive metabolic disorder with varying presentation in infancy and childhood, whereas clinical manifestations are rare in neonatal period. The estimated prevalence is one in a million births. A 23-day-old baby was admitted with complaints of fever, vomiting, and lethargy. Blood sample drawn appeared lipemic. Lipemia retinalis was noted on funduscopic examination. Biochemical analysis revealed abnormal lipid profile with severe hypertriglyceridemia (10,300 mg/dL) and elevated serum lipase level (517 IU/L) indicative of LPL deficiency with acute pancreatitis. LPL deficiency was suspected and was confirmed by molecular genetic testing, which revealed a novel mutation in LPL gene. Dietary management and gemfibrozil were started following which serum triglyceride level decreased and serum lipase level normalized. The patient is following up regularly for growth and development monitoring.

Performance Analysis of Grooved Hydrodynamic Journal Bearing with Multi-Depth Textured Surface
Authors: Faez K.M , Hamdavi S , Rao T.V.V.L.N. , Ya H.H , Mohamed Norani M.
Published: August 2018

In recent research, theoretical studies and investigations for the textured surface of a hydrodynamic journal bearing has been widely used. This is due to the journal bearingâ€™s performance in terms of load capacity which affects the system performance, efficiency and reliability. It has been proven that a textured surface and grooved surface have managed to improve the performance of journal bearings to some extent. In this work, the performance of a grooved hydrodynamic journal bearing has been analysed with a multi-depth textured surface. The study has been conducted using the modified Reynolds equation to numerically solve the load capacity and pressure distribution, respectively. From the results obtained, it was found that the surface complexity features on the journal bearing lowered the load capacity performance when compared to the plain bearing. The pressure, meanwhile, was distributed throughout the textured sections on the bearing surface, even though it was lower as compared to the plain bearing.

Abstract. The implementation of European emission abatement
strategies has led to a significant reduction in the emissions of ozone
precursors during the last decade. Ground-level ozone is also influenced by
meteorological factors such as temperature, which exhibit interannual
variability and are expected to change in the future. The impacts of climate
change on air quality are usually investigated through air-quality models
that simulate interactions between emissions, meteorology and chemistry.
Within a multi-model assessment, this study aims to better understand how
air-quality models represent the relationship between meteorological
variables and surface ozone concentrations over Europe. A multiple linear
regression (MLR) approach is applied to observed and modelled time series
across 10 European regions in springtime and summertime for the period of
2000–2010 for both models and observations. Overall, the air-quality models
are in better agreement with observations in summertime than in springtime
and particularly in certain regions, such as France, central Europe or
eastern Europe, where local meteorological variables show a strong influence
on surface ozone concentrations. Larger discrepancies are found for the
southern regions, such as the Balkans, the Iberian Peninsula and the
Mediterranean basin, especially in springtime. We show that the air-quality
models do not properly reproduce the sensitivity of surface ozone to some of
the main meteorological drivers, such as maximum temperature, relative
humidity and surface solar radiation. Specifically, all air-quality models
show more limitations in capturing the strength of the
ozone–relative-humidity relationship detected in the observed time series in
most of the regions, for both seasons. Here, we speculate that dry-deposition
schemes in the air-quality models might play an essential role in capturing
this relationship. We further quantify the relationship between ozone and
maximum temperature (mo3−T, climate penalty) in observations and
air-quality models. In summertime, most of the air-quality models are able to
reproduce the observed climate penalty reasonably well in certain regions
such as France, central Europe and northern Italy. However, larger
discrepancies are found in springtime, where air-quality models tend to

Abstract. The sources, chemical transformations and removal mechanisms of aerosol transported to the Arctic are key factors that control Arctic aerosol-climate interactions. Our understanding of sources and processes is limited by a lack of vertically resolved observations in remote Arctic regions. We present vertically resolved observations of trace gases and aerosol composition in High Arctic springtime, made largely north of 80° N, during the NETCARE campaign. Trace gas gradients observed on these flights defined the polar dome as north of 66–68.5° N and below potential temperatures of 283.5–287.5 K (Bozem et al., 2018). In the polar dome, we observe evidence for vertically varying source regions and chemical processing. These vertical changes in sources and chemistry lead to systematic variation in aerosol composition as a function of potential temperature. We show evidence for sources of aerosol with higher organic aerosol (OA), ammonium (NH4) and refractory black carbon (rBC) content in the upper polar dome. Based on FLEXPART-ECMWF calculations, air masses sampled at all levels inside the polar dome (i.e., potential temperature

Abstract. Measurements from actinic flux spectroradiometers on board the NASA DC-8 during the Atmospheric Tomography (ATom) mission provide an extensive set of statistics on how clouds alter photolysis rates (J-values) throughout the remote Pacific and Atlantic Ocean basins. ATom made profiling circumnavigations of the troposphere over four seasons during 2016–2018. J-values are a primary chemical control over tropospheric ozone and methane abundances and their greenhouse effects. Clouds have been recognized for more than three decades as being an important factor in tropospheric chemistry. The ATom climatology of J-values is a unique test of how the chemistry models treat clouds. This work focuses on measurements over the Pacific during the first deployment (ATom-1) in August 2016. Nine global chemistry–climate or –transport models provide J-values for the domains measured in ATom-1. We compare mean profiles over a range of cloudy and clear conditions; but, more importantly, we build a statistical picture of the impact of clouds on J-values through the distribution of the ratio of J-cloudy to J-clear. In detail, the models show largely disparate patterns. When compared with measurements, there is some limited, broad agreement. Models here have resolutions of 50–200 km and thus reduce the occurrence of clear sky when averaging over grid cells. In situ measurements also average the scattered sunlight, but only out to scales of 10 s of km. A primary uncertainty remains in the role of clouds in chemistry, in particular, how models average over cloud fields, and how such averages can simulate measurements.
An empirical model of the thermospheric mass density derived from CHAMP satellite
Authors: Xiong Chao , Lühr Hermann , Schmidt Michael , Bloßfeld Mathis , Rudenko Sergei
Published: August 2018

Abstract. In this study, we present an empirical model, named CH-Therm-2018, of the
thermospheric mass density derived from 9-year (from August 2000 to
July 2009) accelerometer measurements from the CHAllenging
Mini-satellite Payload (CHAMP)
satellite at altitudes from 460 to 310 km. The CHAMP dataset is divided into
two 5-year periods with 1-year overlap (from August 2000 to July 2005 and
from August 2004 to July 2009) to represent the high-to-moderate and
moderate-to-low solar activity conditions, respectively. The CH-Therm-2018
model describes the thermospheric density as a function of seven key
parameters, namely the height, solar flux index, season (day of year),
magnetic local time, geographic latitude and longitude, as well as magnetic
activity represented by the solar wind merging electric field. Predictions of
the CH-Therm-2018 model agree well with CHAMP observations (within 20 %)
and show different features of thermospheric mass density during the two
solar activity levels, e.g., the March–September equinox asymmetry and the
longitudinal wave pattern. From the analysis of satellite laser ranging (SLR)
observations of the ANDE-Pollux satellite during August–September 2009, we
estimate 6 h scaling factors of the thermospheric mass density provided by
our model and obtain the median value equal to 1.267±0.60. Subsequently,
we scale up our CH-Therm-2018 mass density predictions by a scale factor of
1.267. We further compare the CH-Therm-2018 predictions with the Naval
Research Laboratory Mass Spectrometer Incoherent Scatter Radar Extended
(NRLMSISE-00) model. The result shows that our model better predicts the
density evolution during the last solar minimum (2008–2009) than the
NRLMSISE-00 model.
Diffusion limitations and Michaelis–Menten kinetics as drivers of combined temperature and moisture effects on carbon fluxes of mineral soils
Authors: Moyano Fernando Esteban , Vasilyeva Nadezda , Menichetti Lorenzo
Published: August 2018

Abstract. CO2 production in soils responds strongly to changes in temperature
and moisture, but the magnitude of such responses at different timescales
remains difficult to predict. Knowledge of the mechanisms leading to the
often observed interactions in the effects of these drivers on soil
CO2 emissions is especially limited. Here we test the ability of
different soil carbon models to simulate responses measured in soils
incubated at a range of moisture levels and cycled through 5, 20, and
35 ∘C. We applied parameter optimization methods while modifying two
structural components of models: (1) the reaction kinetics of decomposition
and uptake and (2) the functions relating fluxes to soil moisture. We found
that the observed interactive patterns were best simulated by a model using
Michaelis–Menten decomposition kinetics combined with diffusion of dissolved
carbon (C) and enzymes. In contrast, conventional empirical functions that scale
decomposition rates directly were unable to properly simulate the main
observed interactions. Our best model was able to explain 87 % of the
variation in the data. Model simulations revealed a central role of
Michaelis–Menten kinetics as a driver of temperature sensitivity variations
as well as a decoupling of decomposition and respiration C fluxes in the
short and mid-term, with general sensitivities to temperature and moisture
being more pronounced for respiration. Sensitivity to different model
parameters was highest for those affecting diffusion limitations, followed by
activation energies, the Michaelis–Menten constant, and carbon use
efficiency. Testing against independent data strongly validated the model
(R2=0.99) and highlighted the importance of initial soil C pool
conditions. Our results demonstrate the importance of model structure and the
central role of diffusion and reaction kinetics for simulating and
understanding complex dynamics in soil C.

Abstract. Forests of the Western Himalaya, India, are impacted by the summer monsoon and winter seasonal rainfall events and associated changes in the meteorology. Here, we assess the scale interactions between observed forest ecosystem fluxes and meteorological parameters, particularly rainfall seasonality and extremes. The scale interactions were investigated using daily observed fluxes and meteorological parameters of 1080 days of 2014–2016 from a Pinus roxburghii dominated forest and using wavelet spectral analysis method. The mixed forest of this study was a sink of CO2 having the average NEE −3.21 gC m−2 day−1 for the period of observations. Result of the wavelet coherence analysis from observed data indicated a statistically significant correlation (> 0.7 at 95 % confidence level) between daily average NEE and daily total rainfall having band periods of 70–120 days, 35–64 days and 60–90 days of monsoon periods of 2014–16, respectively, where rainfall leading to NEE. Impact of heavy rainfall events of monsoon periods over NEE of the forest patch was found to have average band periods of 4 days; whereas, the winter time heavy rainfall events were having average band periods of 15 days with very high local correlation (> 0.7 at 95 % confidence level) inferring that ecosystem exchange rate was mirroring rainfall events. Although CASA-GFDE3 model simulated daily NEE values of 2014–15 were found have a low fraction of explained variance (= 0.08) with respect to observations, modeled NEE-rainfall relationship of 2014 was found to corroborate well with the observed pattern; however for 2015, the phase relationship between modeled NEE and rainfall around band period of 100 days was opposite to the flux tower observations. Subsequently, heavy rainfall events and daily average air temperatures were also found to be coherent during monsoon period having wavelet coherences > 0.8 indicating a cause and effect relationship between both parameters, and rainfall events were mirroring temperature variations. Therefore, it is anticipated that the Pinus roxburghii dominated forest productivity of Western Himalaya, India, are expected to increase even with the increment of heavy rainfall events in the near 20 future.
Diversity II water quality parameters from ENVISAT (2002–2012): a new global information source for lakes

Published: August 2018

Abstract. The use of ground sampled water quality information for global studies is limited due to practical and financial constraints. Remote sensing is a valuable means to overcome such limitations and to provide synoptic views of ambient water quality at appropriate spatio-temporal scales. In past years several large data processing efforts were initiated to provide corresponding data sources. The Diversity II water quality dataset consists of several monthly, yearly and 9-year averaged water quality parameters for 340 lakes worldwide and is based on data from the full ENVISAT MERIS operation period (2002–2012). Existing retrieval methods and datasets were selected after an extensive algorithm intercomparison exercise. Chlorophyll-a, total suspended matter, turbidity, coloured dissolved organic matter, lake surface water temperature, cyanobacteria and floating vegetation maps, as well as several auxiliary data layers, provide a generically specified database that can be used for assessing a variety of locally relevant ecosystem properties and environmental problems. For validation and accuracy assessment, we provide matchup comparisons for 24 lakes and a group of reservoirs representing a wide range of bio-optical conditions. Matchup comparisons for chlorophyll-a concentrations indicate mean absolute errors and bias in the order of median concentrations for individual lakes, while total suspended matter and turbidity retrieval achieve significantly better performance metrics across several lake-specific datasets. We demonstrate the use of the products by illustrating and discussing remotely sensed evidence of lake-specific processes and prominent regime shifts documented in the literature. The Diversity II data are available from https://doi.pangaea.de/10.1594/PANGAEA.871462, and Python scripts for their analysis and visualization are provided at https://github.com/odermatt/diversity/.
