FLOW INJECTION AND MULTIVARIATE CALIBRATION TECHNIQUES FOR PROCESS ANALYSIS
Creators: name: MACLAURIN, PAUL
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1993

description: The role of process analytical chemistry is summarised in chapter one with particular emphasis on a multidisciplinary approach and the instrumental requirements for on-plant analysis. These concepts are extended to process FIA, highlighting its potential for simultaneous multicomponent determinations. The development of an automated FIA monitor for the on-line determination of sulphite in potassium chloride brine is covered in the second chapter. Reaction stability is demonstrated and the results of on-plant validation and on-line trials are presented. The next chapter deals with the concepts of multivariate calibration. Direct multicomponent analysis, principal components regression and partial least squares regression are critically examined in practical spectroscopic terms and statistical terms. The relative predictive abilities of these techniques are compared in chapter four for the resolution of a multicomponent UV-visible spectrophotometric data set. Chapter five describes the development of an automated FIA-diode array system for the simultaneous determination of phosphate and chlorine. The implications of combining reaction chemistries and the influence of a number of calibration parameters are considered in detail. Finally, the jackknife is presented as a means of dimensionality estimation' and bias correction in PLS modelling. Data sets from the literature are analysed and the results compared with those obtaining using commercial software.

description: The use of molecular gas addition as volatilisation aids in slurry nebulisation inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (SN-ICP-AES) has been investigated using a combination of rigorous optimisation strategies and spectrochemical measurements. Three gases were studied, nitrogen, hexafluorethane (Freon 116) and hydrogen. Nitrogen addition did not appear to offer any benefits in terms of improved accuracy of SN-ICP-AES, whilst the introduction of Freon 116 was notable for some unusual plasma chemistry.

NOVEL TECHNIQUES FOR INVESTIGATING THE PERMEATION PROPERTIES OF ENVIRONMENTALLY-FRIENDLY PAPER COATINGS: The influence of structural anisotropy on fluid permeation in porous media
Creators: name: BODURTHA, PAUL
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2003

description: In this study, we have investigated the effects of structural anisotropy of porous media on the permeation of fluids. The motivation for the work was an increased understanding of the permeation of inks into paper coatings, which often contain platey or needle-like particles, which have been aligned during the coating process. However, the findings are also relevant to other systems, such as the sub-terranean migration of fluids, including pollutants, within shale that contains particles of high aspect ratio. Mineral pigments, comprising mainly of calcium carbonate or clay, are often are applied to the surface of paper to improve optical and printing properties. For a high quality image to be achieved, the coating should have sufficient capillarity to allow the ink film to set within the time-scale of a modern printing press. The permeation of fluids into a range of different coating formulations has been investigated, with its main focus on the following samples: Speswhite and Amazon90 SD, which belong to the Kaolin (day) mineral group, and OpacarbA40 and Albaglos, which belong to the Precipitated Calcium Carbonate (PCC) mineral group. The permeation was measured by five different techniques, including a novel use of the Ink Surface Interaction Tester. The results were modelled using a modified version of the software package ‘Pore-Cor’, which simulated both permeability and capillary absorption of a wetting liquid into porous media containing anisotropic voids, and allowed the effects of anisotropy to be isolated from other closely related pore properties. The model generated a simplified three-dimensional void network having pores with a rectangular cross-section and throats with an elliptic cross-section. From visual inspection of the modelled structures, the effect of anisotropy revealed advance wetting in the narrow features of Speswhite-CL and OpacarbA40-CL. Overall, to gain a clear understanding of the permeation of anisotropic structures both inertia and surface throat density is needed to be included in the Pore-Cor model. Once these factors were applied to the model, it was able to predict the permeation of fluids more successfully than those predicted by the Kozeny and aligned cylinders models. The insights gained from this study have allowed conclusions to be drawn about the nature of fluid permeation; they have therefore opened the way to more sophisticated modelling and the engineering of high performance coating structures.
FACTORS INFLUENCING THE SEAWATER SOLUBILITY OF AEROSOL ASSOCIATED TRACE METALS
Creators: name: BISCOMBE, ANGELA
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2004

description: Recent recognition of the importance of trace metals in oceanic biogeochemical cycling and of the significance o f atmospheric trace metals inputs to marine waters, highlights the need to assess the dissolved trace metals inputs from atmospheric sources. Atmospheric inputs are important to the surface waters of the Eastern Mediterranean, due to the reduction of riverine inputs. High-volume aerosol samples were collected from Haifa, Israel and Erdemli, Turkey in 1996. These samples were characterised by air mass back trajectories, because contrasting aerosol sources (urban and crustal) are apparent in this region. Trace metal (Cu, Pb and Zn) seawater solubility studies were determined for selected samples, under carefully controlled conditions (seawater at pH 8.0 and 25.0 ± 1.0 °C; shaking rate 150 osc min"'). The average seawater solubilities o f Zn and Pb from the northern (predominantly European source) wind sector were statistically higher than the southern (mainly Sahartm and Arabian desert source) wind sector. The total dry deposition fluxes o f trace metals were estimated from the geometric air concentrations of both wind sectors, the wind sector weighting and assimiing a deposition velocity of 0.1 cm s'K Trace metal seawater soluble fluxes were calculated using mean seawater solubilities of the aerosols from the northern and southern wind sectors. The soluble trace metal fluxes, by dry deposition, to the Eastern Mediterranean were compared with soluble wet deposition and riverine fluxes. A novel experimental system was assembled and validated, in order to (i) enhance our knowledge of the physiochemical and biological factors that affect the seawater solubility of trace metals and (ii) to refine the soluble trace metal flux estimates. The experimental system was capable of monitoring trace metal desorption reactions at high temporal resolutions (> 45 s). It was initially applied to the measurement of the extent and rate of desorption of total dissolved and Mabile dissolved' Cu, Pb and Zn from Liverpool urban particulate material, then to the seawater solubility of trace metals associated with urban particulate standard reference material and Saharan dust. In order to increase our understanding of the fate of trace metals associated with aerosol particles after dry deposition into seawater, the effects of bacteria, proportional mbcing of end member aerosols, particle concentrations, mbcing rates, light and temperature on the desorption of aerosol associated trace metals were separately investigated. It was found that the presence of bacteria in seawater and seawater temperature enhanced the seawater solubility of Zn, Pb and Cu. In addition, natural light enhanced the solubility of Cu from Saharan dust. Conversely, increasing the particle concentrations and the mixing rate of the incubated seawater caused a decrease the observed seawater solubility of aerosol associated trace metals (the decrease was greater for Pb and Zn than Cd and Cu).

description: A survey of Myxosporidia in teleosts from the South-Western. coast of England demonstrated the widespread occurrence of these parasites. Infection in selected fish species was related to age, sex and seasonal migration of the host. Structural studies of Myxobolus exiguus and Myxidium incurvatum were undertaken in order to investigate sporogenesis, parasite development and the host-parasite interface. Of particular note was the intimate association between parasite and host cells, the structure of the surface layers in Myxobolus exiguus and Myxidium incurvatum, and the occurrence of epithelioid cells in developmental stages of Myxobolus exiguus. Myxobolus exiguus was transmitted experimentally in mullet, and aspects of the mode of infection, including exsporulation, were studied in this and other species, including those with coelozoic development. patterns. Experiments designed to simulate the gut biotope identified the action of trypsin and mechanical fracture as important exsporulation factors in Myxobolus exiguus. The release of spores and their dispersal and survival outside the host were investigated, and the possible existence of intermediate transport hosts discussed. Pathological effects of histozoic and coelozoic myxosporidian infection were examined in selected hosts. Fibroblastic encapsulation of plasmodia, and hyperplasia, characterised intestinal and branchial infections of Myxobolus exiguus in mullet, and cystic replacement of renal tissue was associated with Myxidium giardi infection in eels. Biliary myxosporidiosis caused chronic irritation and fibrosis of the gall bladder wall, increased bile viscosity and discolouration. Incidence, periodicity and severity of various Myxosporidian infections are discussed with regard to their disease potential and possible impact on commercially-important teleost species.
THE TECTONIC EVOLUTION OF THE HATAY OPHIOLITE OF SOUTHEAST TURKEY

description: Merged with duplicate record 10026.1/745 on 27.02.2017 by CS (TIS)
description: A combination of palaeomagnetic and structural analyses have been used to constrain rotations in the Hatay (Kizildag) ophiolite of southeast Turkey in the eastern Mediterranean region and to produce a tectonic model for its evolution. The ophiolite comprises part of a prominent chain of southern Neotethyan ophiolites that stretches from the Troodos ophiolite of Cyprus eastwards to the Semail ophiolite of Oman. The Hatay ophiolite and the related Baer-Bassit ophiolite of Syria comprise the most westerly ophiolites emplaced onto the Arabian platform in the Maastrichtian. The palaeomagnetic analyses demonstrate that a large coherent anticlockwise rotation was experienced by the Hatay ophiolite, with minor variability resulting from differential rotations of adjacent tectonic blocks. Positive inclination-only tilt tests indicate that the Hatay ophiolite preserves a pre-deformational magnetisation. This is supported by rock magnetic analyses, consistent with a seafloor origin of magnetisation acquisition, soon after genesis at a spreading ridge. Magnetic carriers capable of preserving a remanence stable over geological time are identified. Palaeomagnetic analyses of the sedimentary cover sequences of the Hatay and Baer-Bassit ophiolites have been performed to provide timing constraints on the rotations in the underlying ophiolites. These illustrate that a large component of the rotations occurred pre-emplacement of the Hatay/Baer-Bassit sheet. Structural analyses performed on all levels of the Hatay ophiolite and its sedimentary cover add insight into the phases of deformation that have affected the ophiolite and enable rotations to be constrained in relation to the structural development of the ophiolite. The structural events recognised can be linked to the regional tectonic evolution of the ophiolite and used to critically evaluate previous tectonic interpretations of the Hatay ophiolite. Comparison between the large coherent anticlockwise rotations observed in the Troodos, Hatay and Baer-Bassit ophiolites imply that a significant component is likely to be linked to a common cause, inferred to be of intraoceanic origin as part of a coherent microplale. Thus, existing models for the rotation of the Troodos microplate have been revised to incorporate a larger area and also account for the rotations of the Hatay and Baer-Bassit ophiolites. Restoration of sheeted dykes to their original orientations implies that a primary variation in dyke strike existed within the southern Neotethyan ocean. In combination with the implications of the palaeomagnetic results for microplate rotation, these characteristics suggest formation of the ophiolites within a complex Neotethyan spreading system, analogous in many respects to fast-spreading marginal basin systems of the modem oceans.
PARTICULATE PHYTOCHELATINS AS AN INDICATION OF METAL STRESS IN NATURAL WATERS
Creators: name: KAWAKAMI, SILVIA KEIKO
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2004

description: The aim of this study was to investigate the metal stress response of phytoplankton in the Fal, Plym and Tamar Estuaries (SW England, UK) by field measurements of particulate phytochelatins (PCs) and glutathione (GSH) and their relationships with Cu speciation. A high performance liquid chromatographic method was optimised for the determination of particulate PCs and GSH from estuarine waters. Dissolved Cu speciation was determined using well established cathodic stripping voltammetric methods. Glutathione was found throughout the estuaries ranging from 0.6 to 274 µmol (g chl α)ˉ¹ , and PCs were detected mostly in the Fal samples at concentrations up to 36 µmol (g chl α)ˉ¹. Elevated PC production was observed in Restronguet Creek (Fal Estuary) and Gunnislake (Tamar Estuary), the most metal mine impacted sites. For the 2002 survey in the Fal Estuary, GSH and PCs presented strong positive correlations with total dissolved Cu and free Cu2 + (as log values). For this survey, it was observed that PC production was faster than GSH production under increasing total dissolved Cu concentrations. This indicated that PC production is a more specific response to metal stress than GSH production in natural waters. High variabilities in the particulate GSH and PC concentrations were likely caused by the heterogeneous phytoplankton composition within the estuaries and effects of metal interactions. Combined exposure of Cd and Zn, for instance, caused antagonistic effects on PC production by the laboratory diatom culture Phaeodactylum tricornutum, probably due to competition for cellular binding sites. Other mechanisms may be involved in the phytoplankton defence system against metal concentrations, as not all species reported in those areas appear to be able to synthesise PCs. Dissolved Cu-organic complexes with high conditional stability constants (K = 10¹¹ - 10¹³ ) dominated Cu speciation in most of the samples from the Fal, Tamar and Thau Lagoon (France). forming an important mechanism to reduce metal toxicity.

The present article elaborates on the notion of civil religion in the Indonesian context.
A PALAEOMAGNETIC STUDY OF CRUSTAL ROTATIONS AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP TO THE TECTONICS OF THE ATACAMA AND DOMEYKO FAULT SYSTEMS, NORTHERN CHILE
Creators: name: RANDALL, DARREN EDWARD
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 1996

description: A total of 178 sites have been collected for palaeomagnetic analysis from within two strike-slip fault systems in northern Chile (25.4°S - 26.4°S); the Atacama Fault System in the Coastal Cordillera, and the Domeyko Fault System in the Andean pre-Cordillera. In the Coastal Cordillera, analysis of Middle Jurassic lavas (La Negra Formation) and Middle Jurassic to Early Cretaceous dyke swarms reveal a consistent clockwise rotation of approximately 42°. The remanence from the La Negra Formation passes both fold and reversal tests and is interpreted as a pre-folding remanence. Four of the five dyke swarms have mixed polarity, suggesting that they too carry a primary or very early remanence. The clockwise rotation of the area is interpreted as occurring due to a domino-type mechanism where the blocks are bounded by sinistral faults operating in a crustal scale strike-slip duplex structure. The rotation is the result of sinistral transpression during the middle Cretaceous as a result of the Peruvian Orogeny leading to abandonment of the Jurassic-Early Cretaceous magmatic arc in the Coastal Cordillera and its subsequent eastward migration. The Domeyko Fault System (DFS) comprises the Domeyko Fault Zone (DFZ), and a series of subsidiary faults to the east which define two distinct but slightly overlapping domains: a fold-and-thrust belt in the north and a domain o f sinistral strike-slip faults in the south. Samples were collected from the volcanic rocks of the Sierra Fraga Formation (Middle Jurassic) west of the DFZ, and from the lavas of the Quebrada Vicunita Formation (Late Jurassic) and Cerro Valiente Formation (Palaeocene) from both domains of the DFS. Also sampled in the southern domain, and in a small area between the two domains were sandstones o f the Quebrada Monardes Formation (Early Cretaceous). All of the volcanic units have been remagnetised and no tectonic interpretation is made from them. The sandstones in the southern domain record a clockwise rotation of approximately 24°. This is interpreted as being due to compression across the DFS causing the sinistral strike-slip faults, and the blocks between them to rotate clockwise towards the major tectonic structure, the DFS. The sandstones in the central area between the two domains record an anticlockwise rotation of approximately 28°. This is explained by small-scale rotation of thrust sheets or slip on minor dextral strike-slip faults. The deformation and rotation in the pre-Cordillera occurred in response to the Incaic Orogeny during the Miocene-Oligocene.

Several methods of measuring attenuation were assessed for reliability in a noise-free case and with the addition of noise using a set of synthetically absorbed and dispersed wavelets. Wavelet modelling proved to be superior to the other techniques, followed by spectrum modelling and the spectral ratios method. Complex trace analysis using the analytical signal proved to be unreliable for non-sinusoidal wavelets, whilst the risetime method was found to be very susceptible to noise for practical purposes. Numerical modelling was carried out to assess the spectral effects of layering on a propagating pulse. The thin layer / peg-leg phenomenon has varying filtering effects on the propagating pulse. In particular, layers which are less than the "tuning thickness" of the propagating pulse have a low-pass effect. The quality factor, Q, was measured in two case studies. In the first, the mean Q was determined from wavelet and spectrum modelling and found to be 60 for fine sands and 47 for coarse sands in the 1 kHz to 3 kHz frequency band. In the second, Q was determined as 59 for poorly sorted sandy diamicts in the 100 Hz to 240 Hz frequency band. The close fit between synthesised spectra and wavelets and observed data showed that a constant- Q mechanism would account for the spectral changes between the seabed and the deeper target reflection events in the two case studies. The spectra of the target reflection events in both case studies were lacking in low frequencies which is likely to be due to low-pass filtering from composite reflection events due to thin bed layering. For practical purposes, the determination of Q from a mean normalised seismic trace yielded the same result as measuring a mean Q from individual traces. In a third case study, the seabed multiple was compared to the seabed reflection using wavelet and spectrum modelling. A lack of low frequencies in the seabed multiple showed that the seabed can act as a low-pass filter to an incident pulse. As the numerical methods rely on the seabed as having a white reflection and transmission response, the low-pass effect will result in erroneous estimates of the quality factor, Q.

description: Data privacy protection is garnering increased attention among researchers. Diffusion models (DMs), particularly with strict differential privacy, can potentially produce images with both high privacy and visual quality. However, challenges arise in ensuring robust protection in privatizing specific data attributes, areas where current models often fall short. To address these challenges, we introduce the PAC Privacy Preserving Diffusion Model, a model leverages diffusion principles and ensure Probably Approximately Correct (PAC) privacy. We enhance privacy protection by integrating a private classifier guidance into the Langevin Sampling Process. Additionally, recognizing the gap in measuring the privacy of models, we have developed a novel metric to gauge privacy levels. Our model, assessed with this new metric and supported by Gaussian matrix computations for the PAC bound, has shown superior performance in privacy protection over existing leading private generative models according to benchmark tests.

description: This thesis provides a critical analysis of the suitability of mixed-use waterfront revitalisation as a setting for social housing schemes. Although the latter have become increasingly common on British waterfronts in recent years, it can be argued that for a variety of reasons the waterfront may be an inappropriate location in which to create new, and possibly vulnerable, social housing communities. This proposition is tested through three empirical investigations. Each of these assesses resident satisfaction with respect to the housing itself, the immediate revitalised environment and the regenerated waterfront's degree of integration with the city and its services. A variety of research methods was employed, including desk-top studies involving literature searches, qualitative investigations to assist questionnaire design, the use of self-administered questionnaires by sample populations, postal proformas and postal and telephone correspondence. The empirical results are presented and discussed against the background of introductory chapters reviewing processes of waterfront decline and revitalisation. the evolution of UK social housing policy and approaches to the analysis of waterfront regeneration. The concluding chapter reviews results, proposes a conceptual model for the analysis of todays regenerated waterfronts and outlines a research agenda. The main findings were that anticipated problems were greatly over-estimated by the hypotheses adopted, and that mixed-use waterfronts have substantial appeal for the large majority of social housing tenants. This reflects a complex range influences. Despite high satisfaction levels, however, the work also demonstrated that potential problems should not be ignored. To a great extent their avoidance depends on successful design at the micro-scale, but the overall morphology of the waterfront may also be important in terms of its ability to isolate communities from inner-urban problems.

THE DEVELOPMENT AND STUDY OF CHELATING SUBSTRATES FOR THE SEPARATION OF METAL IONS IN COMPLEX SAMPLE MATRICES
Creators: name: Cowan, James
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2002

description: The fabrication and study of high performance chelating substrates for the separation of trace metals using a single column under both isocratic and gradient elutions were investigated. Neutral polystyrene based resins from a variety of manufacturers including a hypercrosslinked resin (MN 200) were functionalised via impregnation with chelating dyestuffs or dynamically modified with small, low molecular weight organic molecules by physical adsorption and chemisorption processes respectively. Improvements in the impregnation of substrates were developed, based upon ultrasonic agitation, along with improvements in the detection of metal ions by the use of a noise reduction system, eluent clean-up procedures and large volume injections. The chelating substrates were characterised by studying their ability to retain metal cations (i.e. their capacity factors), column efficiency and separating power as well as their suitability for analytical applications. Other factors including ionic strength, pH, degree of crosslinking, column length and capacity were investigated to determine the separation capabilities of the substrates. Those substrates deemed to have the most suitable capabilities were employed for the determination of trace metals in a variety of complex sample matrices.

COMPLEXATION AND PARTICLE-WATER INTERACTIONS OF NICKEL IN ESTUARIES
Creators: name: MARTINO, MANUELA
Publisher: name: University of Plymouth
Year: 2000

description: The speciation and particle-water interactions of Ni were investigated in three estuaries with contrasting pollution levels, hydrodynamics and geochemical characteristics. Samples of water and sediments were collected seasonally from the Tamar, Tweed and Mersey Estuaries. The chemical speciation of dissolved Ni was determined by adsorptive cathodic stripping voltammetry (ACSV), and the sorptive behaviour of Ni was studied under simulated estuarine conditions using " Ni coupled to liquid scintillation counting. A relatively high particle reactivity was observed only in the Tamar Estuary, where ACSV-non labile Ni was removed in the low salinity region, followed by addition of ACSV-labile Ni in the mid-estuarine region. The largely conservative behaviour of dissolved Ni in the Tweed Estuary was attributed to the combination of rapid flushing and low suspended particles concentration. In the Mersey Estuary, dissolved Ni (and Co, Zn, Cd and Pb) often showed positive deviations from conservative behaviour, which were attributed to anthropogenic and/or geochemical inputs. The fraction of ACSV-non labile Ni behaved differently in the three estuaries, with a sharp decrease from 90 to 30% from freshwater to seawater in the Tamar, scatter between 30 and 70% in the Tweed, and relatively constant values of 50-70% in the Mersey. These differences are interpreted within the context of different hydrodynamics and geochemistry of the three estuaries. Speciation modelling showed that between 30 and 70% of dissolved Ni in the Tweed, and between 50 and 70% in the Mersey, was bound to a class of strong ligands (log K'NIL = 19.0 ± 0.4 and 18.7 ± 0.5, respectively), which were saturated by the ambient concentrations of Ni throughout the estuaries, suggesting that the ligands are highly specific towards Ni. Irradiation of riverwater samples with UV light (believed to remove dissolved organic matter) significantly enhanced Ni uptake onto estuarine suspended particulate matter, with an increase in the 63Ni distribution coefficients (Kds) of up to 10 fold. Conversely, the addition of synthetic humic acids to UV-treated riverwater decreased significantly the 63Ni Kds. Complexation of Ni by dissolved natural ligands also affected the progression of sorptive reactions, with a system response time (i.e. the time required to achieve 63% of the sorptive equilibrium) between 1.6 and 8.9 hours. The results from this study suggest that the low particle reactivity generally exhibited by Ni during estuarine mixing is due to its ability to complex strongly with dissolved natural ligands (truly dissolved organic or colloidal organic/inorganic), and therefore resist adsorption onto particles.
