Recommendation 17. Throughout closure operations, the sequence and extent of building demolition should be planned to ensure continuous separation of contaminated waste from uncontaminated waste. Professional engineers should review the proposed sequence and extent of demolition actions. The effects of demolition on structural integrity in the event of a contingency condition (such as a typhoon) should be considered. A system of work permits and controls should be established for operation of heavy equipment... 

Closure activities will necessarily span several typhoon seasons. A direct strike could leave a tangled mass of material that would be difficult and dangerous to handle. Careful... 

Solomon et al. (1994) proposed that below 20 km, iodine could make a major contribution to O, destruction if there were 1 ppt of total iodine in the stratosphere. Episodic transport of iodine compounds to the upper troposphere clearly happens on some occasions, as evidenced by the observation of concentrations of CH3I as high as 1 ppt at 10-12 km when a typhoon provided strong vertical upward motion (Davis et al., 1996). However, it may be that this is the exception rather than the rule. 

Short-lived radionuclides are those with half-lives sufficiently short that any atoms present in the early solar system would have completely decayed away. In 1960, John Reynolds found the first clear evidence that short-lived nuclides were present in the form of large excesses of Xe, the decay product of short-lived I, in chondritic meteorites. This discovery showed that elements had been synthesized in stars shortly before the formation of the solar system. A more important short-lived radionuclide, 26A1, was demonstrated to have been present in meteorites by Typhoon Lee and coworkers in...

The practical consequence of Eq. (2) for rotational fluid flow can be quite dramatic, as demonstrated by the high wind speeds that may be generated near the center of free vortex flows—e.g., tornadoes and typhoons. 

Climate extremes will intensify (heat waves, heavy showers, etc.) the intensity of tropical cyclones (typhoons) will increase due to further SST rise at low latitudes meridional circulation in the North Atlantic will decrease, on average, by 25% extra-tropical cyclones will shift toward the poles.

If the scale of the ligation is more than 10 nmol, the band of the full-length product on the gel will most likely be visible to a naked eye. If the ligation is performed on a smaller scale, the position of the ligated full-length RNA can be identified by scanning the gel on a Typhoon scanner in the fluorescent mode. 

It should be noted that in 1984, the amount of precipitation was extraordinarily low (40-60% of the ordinary years) at the northeast Pacific side of Honshu Is. and at the south of Hokkaido Is., partly owing to the fact that no typhoon arrived at Honshu Is. in this year. 

At Ishigaki, more typhoons occurred in 1985 than in 1984, and these might be the cause of the higher contribution of sea salt sulfate in August and in September.

SPA Typhoon obtains additional information in the course of casual expedition surveys in individual regions and thanks to participation in different international projects. As the result of 1992-2002 expedition smveys performed in radiation-hazardous facility location areas in Kola Gulf, the Kara Sea, Novaya Zemlia bays and the Japan Sea their 3D effects on the environment were discovered, and the contamination levels in seawater, bottom sediments and biota were established. 

Control over radionuclide concentrations in bottom sediments within the water area adjacent to SevMash enterprise in Severodvinsk has been performed since 1975. Every year specialists of the Russian Northern Hydrometeorological Service take samples of bottom sediments at 10 points 15-30 km from Severodvinsk. Gamma-spectrometric analysis of samples is performed at SPA Typhoon . Table 4 comprises data on Cs specific activities in bottom sediments over the last 10 years.

Natural disasters can be categorized as acute or slow in their onset (Noji, 1996). They are predictable because they cluster in geographic areas. Natural hazards are unpreventable and, for the most part, uncontrollable. Even if quick recovery occurs, natural disasters can have long-term effects. Natural disasters with acute onsets include events such as avalanche blizzard or extreme cold earthquake fire flood heat wave hurricane, cyclone, or typhoon tornado tsunami or storm surge volcanic eruption and wildfire. Natural hazards with a slow or gradual onset include deforestation, desertification, drought, and pest infestation. The most important natural disasters and examples of their environmental effects are listed in Table 17.1.
