A similar pattern was obtained from the PAH concentrations at four functional zones in Liuzhou (He et al., 2005). The highest total PAH concentrations were observed at the sampling site south of an industrial zone during winter and spring, when the north wind dominates in Liuzhou. The main source of PAHs in Liuzhou was industrial fuel combustion, suggesting that the meteorological conditions affect the distribution and transportation of PAHs greatly. [Pg.242]

I am finished picking and head over to check on the red kale and lettuce. They are drooping a bit after being hit with two days of fierce north winds so I set up a line of sprinkler pipe to irrigate them. I open the valve to release water into the sprinkler... [Pg.30]

WIND OF THE NORTH — The Philosophers say that this Wind is opposed to the extraction of the Universal Menstruum. The allusion is to the dew of May and September, which falls only when the North Wind blows. [Pg.389]

FIGURE 5.15 Cumulative, standardized (mean = 0, STD = 1) series of the winter (IFM) frequency of weather types with dominating meridional circulation (MC, dots) producing north winds over West Europe (1891-1968) from data of Girs (1971) and that of the WIBIX (open circles) note the negative (positive) trend in the MC (WIBIX) during the maritime climate mode (1903-1939) identified in Fig. 5.14. [Pg.111]

The city of Veles, with its geographical position, atmospheric characteristics, urban and industrial concentration, and its improperly located the Lead and Zinc Smelter Plant upstream to the north wind opposite to the Wind Rose (north wind is dominant and dispersion of pollutants is going directly to the city), multiplied by inconvenient climate-meteorological, hydro-topographic factors has a huge and continuous air pollution problem. The Lead Smelter Plant, built in Veles in 1973, is located on the north of the city only 200-300 m away from first households. [Pg.129]

The word Hero derives from the name of the Goddess Hera. With his golden apple, the soul of her Hero travels to her paradise at the back of the North Wind. [Pg.241]

The three Great Initiates of Sirius supposedly came to earth eighteen million years ago, bearing the threefold Light of Love. They inhabited Hyperborea, the fabled land of rebirth beyond the North Wind. These creatures from Sirius were amphibious men giving Sirius the soubriquet of the Land of the Fish. [Pg.264]

North winds along the northern California coast in summer may be interrupted by southerly winds. At the start of the particular event studied, the marine layer thickened in the... [Pg.103]

The air in this country is temperate and good, as we were able to learn from their accounts that there are never any pestilences or epidemics caused by bad air. Unless they meet with violent deaths, their lives are long. I believe this is because a southerly wind is always blowing, a south wind to them being what a north wind is to us. They are expert fishermen, and the sea is full of all kinds of fish. They are not hunters I think because here there are many kinds of wild animals, principally lions and bears. [Pg.99]

The mechanism of this spring fog is different from typical spring and summer fog. The spring and summer fog is almost advection cooling fog in previous research, while in this spring fog, the intersection of south and north winds over Yellow Sea increased the relative humidity, and then formed the mixing fog at first. And then after May 9, it slowly turned into evaporation advection fog due to the decrease of air temperature. [Pg.170]

Figure 32.10 shows the variations of (a) wind, (b) daily solar radiation, chlorophyll a [Stn. 1 (c), Stn. 2 (d), and Stn. 3 (e)], water temperature [Stn. 1 (f), Stn. 2 (g), and Stn. 3 (h)], and salinity [Stn. 1 (i), Stn. 2 (j), and Stn. 3 (k)]. Station 1 is located at the inner most part of east side of the bay, Stn. 2 at the center part of east side of the bay, and Stn. 3 at the west part of the inner part of Tokyo Bay (see Fig. 32.2). Chlorophyll a content varied rapidly between 0 and 100/xg/l. Chlorophyll a increased during the five periods marked by A-E in Fig. 32.10(c)-32.10(e). The increase of chlorophyll a was observed almost simultaneously at the three stations, except at Stn. 3 during A and E. So, the general variation of phytoplankton is almost the same inside the bay. The maximum chlorophyll a occurred in period B at the three stations. For these five periods, when the north wind began to blow, the blooms stopped rapidly. This is because a strong north wind caused outward transport from the inner bay and upwelling at the east side of the bay, resulting in advection and dispersion of ph doplankton in the water column. For example, when a north wind blew, the surface water temperature at Stn. 1 fell rapidly as shown in Fig. 32.10(f) (on April 20, 25, 30, May 15, June 9, and 19). In contrast, the bottom water temperature at Stn. 2 rose sharply as shown in Fig. 32.10(g) (on April 25, 30, May 15, June 9, and 19). On the other hand, the south wind caused the contrary phenomena, and the bottom layer temperature rose sharply at Stn. 1 (on May 5, 20, 28, June 3, 11, and 24). In contrast, the surface temperature fell at Stn. 2. These responses to the wind seemed to have occurred because the two stations are located on the east and west sides of the inner bay while downwelling occurs at one station, upwelling occurs at the other. These responses are particularly clear at Stn. 2, since it is located at the innermost part...

Wind speed and direction are often presented in the form of a wind rose. Dicse show the wind patterns at a particular location. The wind rose is usually presented in compass point form with each arm representing the frequency of wind from that direction (i.e., a north wind blows southward). [Pg.80]

MARCUS I will give you an answer, Atticus, but not before you give me one is it true that it was not far from your house that Romulus took a stroll after his death and told Proculus lulius that he was a god and was named Quirinus, and ordered a temple to be dedicated to himself on that spot And is it true that in Athens, not far from your former home, the North Wind picked up Orithyia - that is what they say. [Pg.156]

In this season it rains very much, and the winds are very tempestuous from North, N.W., and West. When the storms begin to veer from north, there is hail, with intense cold, but the north wind is more temperate. When it rains all the woods are a perfect sea, and the beaches are rivers pouring into the sea. ... [Pg.54]

On Tuesday, the 8th of December, the feast of the Conception of our Lady, the most holy Mother of God, it dawned with such foul weather over land and sea, and with such a tempest of rain and north wind, that it was not possible to attend to anything connected with navigation, for we were confined to the ship, and the only result of attempting to work would be to meet an evil death without any advantage whatever. [Pg.59]
