A low-level circulation in the tropics
(American Meteorological Society, 2008)Deep convective tropical systems are strongly convergent in the midtroposphere. Horizontal wind measurements from a variety of rawinsonde arrays in the equatorial Pacific and Caribbean are used to calculate the mean dynamical ... -
Lower bounds from tile covers for the channel assignment problem

A Lower Carboniferous Sedimentary-Volcanic Succession, North Baddeck River, Nova Scotia
(1982-03-15)A comprehensive study was made on a roughly 60 metre thick succession of sedimentary and volcanic rocks on the North Baddeck River, central Cape Breton Island, Nova Scotia. The sequence comprises thinly-laminated grey ... -
The Lower Cretaceous Ellerslie Formation of Southeast Taber and Chin Coulee Oil Fields, Southeastern Alberta
(1984-04-15)Sandstones of the Lower Cretaceous Ellerslie Formation overlie a major unconformity in southeastern Alberta. Post-Jurassic erosion produced a subcrop pattern on which an extensive drainage system developed in Lower Cretaceous ... -
Luminous Starbursts in the Redshift Desert at z 1-2: Star Formation Rates, Masses & Evidence for Outflows
(2011-08-01)We present a spectroscopic catalogue of 40 luminous starburst galaxies at z=0.7--1.7 (median z=1.3). 19 of these are submillimetre galaxies (SMGs) and 21 are submillimetre-faint radio galaxies (SFRGs). This sample helps ... -
The M33 Globular Cluster System with PAndAS Data: The Last Outer Halo Cluster?
(2011-01-12)We use CFHT/MegaCam data to search for outer halo star clusters in M33 as part of the Pan-Andromeda Archaeological Survey (PAndAS). This work extends previous studies out to a projected radius of 50 kpc and covers over 40 ... -
Machine Learning Focal Mechanism Inversion for Hydraulic Fracturing Induced Earthquakes
(2023-04)Hydraulic fracturing has been found to be a major contributor to the increase in induced seismicity worldwide, with pore pressure, poroelasticity, and coulomb stress transfer identified as the three main triggering ... -

Madden-Julian Oscillation and sea level: Local and remote forcing
(American Geophysical Union, 2010-01)The Madden-Julian Oscillation (MJO) is the dominant mode of atmospheric variability in the tropical atmosphere on intraseasonal time scales (i.e., weeks to seasons). This study examines the connection between the MJO and ... -
Magnetic Anomalies Near Ore Bodies and Mineralized Zones in the Troodos Ophiolite of Cyprus
(1989-04-15)The Troodos ophiolite in southwestern Cyprus has been a major producer of copper since the Bronze age. As such, the area has been studied and mapped extensively, and most known mineralized areas have been studied. Preliminary ... -
Magnetic Modelling in the Davis Strait and Northern Labrador Sea
(1986-04-15)The Davis Strait is a constricted passage lying between Baffin Island and Greenland. Davis Strait separates the waters of Baffin Bay and the Labrador Sea. There have been disagreements as to the nature of the crust in ... -
Magnetic Properties of a Bermudian Pillowed Lava Flow
(1982-03-15)This study is concerned with the description and interpretation of the opaque mineralogy and paleomagnetic properties of a 3.0 m core interval which is comprised of a pillowed lava flow and basal intrusive sheet taken from ... -
Magnetic properties of Co/GaAs(110)
(APS through AIP, 2006-12/15)We observed three magnetic states of an ultrathin, atomically well-ordered Co film grown on a cleaved GaAs(110) substrate. For a Co thickness less than 3.4 monolayers (ML), we find a ferromagnetically dead layer associated ... -
Magnetic Susceptibility of Halifax Formation Slates at the Halifax International Airport: Correlation with Potential for Acid Drainage
(1995-04-15)The disruption by excavation or quarrying of sulphide-rich slate units of the Halifax Formation of the Meguma Group of Nova Scotia leads to oxidation of the sulphides and generation of acid drainage. Construction within ... -
Magnetic susceptibility of metallic transition-metal dichalcogenides
(1981-07/01)A tight-binding model has been used to estimate the anisotropy of the magnetic susceptibility of the metallic transition-metal dichalcogenides. The calculated anisotropies obtained are in qualitative agreement with ... -
Magnetization dynamics of the ferrimagnet CoGd near the compensation of magnetization and angular momentum
(2006-10)No abstract available.
