    Strong along-arc variations in attenuation in the mantle wedge beneath Costa Rica and Nicaragua

    No full text
    Attenuation structure in the Central American subduction zone was imaged using local events recorded by the Tomography Under Costa Rica and Nicaragua array, a 20-month-long deployment (July 2004 until March 2006) of 48 seismometers that spanned the fore-arc, arc, and back-arc regions of Nicaragua and Costa Rica. P and S waveforms were inverted separately for the corner frequency and moment of each event and for the path-averaged attenuation operator (t*) of each event-station pair, assuming attenuation is slightly frequency-dependent ( = 0.27). Then, tomographic inversions were performed for S and P attenuation (Q S ?1 and Q P ?1). Since P wave amplitudes reflect both shear and the bulk moduli, tomographic inversions were also performed to determine shear and bulk attenuation (Q S ?1 and Q ?1), the loss of energy per cycle owing to shearing and uniform compression, respectively. Damping and other inversion tomographic parameters were systematically varied. As is typical in subduction zone attenuation studies, a less attenuating slab, upper plate, and wedge corner and a more attenuating mantle wedge were imaged. In addition, first-order differences between the mantles beneath Nicaragua and Costa Rica were observed. The slab in Nicaragua is more attenuating than the slab in Costa Rica. A larger zone of higher shear attenuation also characterizes the Nicaraguan mantle wedge. Within the wedge, maximum attenuation values at 1 Hz correspond to Qs = 38–73 beneath Nicaragua and Qs = 62–84 beneath Costa Rica, and average values are Qs = 76–78 and Qs = 84–88, respectively. Attenuation variations correlate with along-arc trends in geochemical indicators that suggest that melting beneath Nicaragua occurs at more hydrated conditions, and possibly to greater extents and depths, relative to northern Costa Rica. Shear attenuation dominates over bulk attenuation in the well-resolved regions of the wedge. The more extensive zones of greater shear attenuation observed in the Nicaraguan wedge could be explained by higher temperatures and/or greater hydration, but comparison with petrological data suggests that hydration variations play a larger role. Average wedge attenuation values are comparable to estimates for the Andes and Japan, greater than those for Alaska, and less than those for Tonga-Lau. <br/

    Temperature-induced oviposition in the brachyuran crab Cancer setosus along a latitudinal cline: Aquaria experiments and analysis of field-data

    No full text
    Ovigerous females of Cancer setosus are present year-round throughout most of its wide range along the Peruvian/Chilean Pacific coast (2°S–46°S). However, their number of egg-masses produced per year remains speculative and as such has neither been considered in latitudinal comparisons of reproduction, nor for its fisheries management. In order to reveal the effect of temperature on egg-mass production and egg development, female C. setosus were held in through-flow aquaria under natural seasonal temperature conditions (16–23 °C) in Antofagasta (23°S), Northern Chile (05/2005–03/2006; 10 months), and at three constant temperatures (12, 16, 19 °C) in Puerto Montt (41°S), Central Southern Chile (09/2006–02/2007; 5 months). Female crabs uniformly produced up to 3 viable egg-masses within 4 1/2 months in Antofagasta and in Puerto Montt (at 19 °C). The second egg-mass was observed 62.5 days (±7.6; N=7) after the oviposition of the first clutch and a third egg-mass followed 73.5 days (±12.5; N=11) later in Antofagasta (at 16–23 °C). Comparably, a second oviposition took place 64.4 days (±9.8, N=5) after the first clutch and a third, 67.0 days (±2.8, N=2), thereafter, at 19 °C in Puerto Montt. At the two lower temperatures (16 and 12 °C) in Puerto Montt a second egg-mass was extruded after 82.8 days (±28.9; N=4) and 137 days (N=1), respectively. The duration of eggdevelopment from oviposition until larval hatching decreased from 65 days at 12.5 °C to 22.7 days at the observed upper temperature threshold of 22 °C. Based on the derived relationship between temperature and the duration of egg-development (y=239.3175e? 0.107x; N=21, r2=0.83) and data on monthly percentages of ovigerous females from field studies, the annual number of egg-masses of C. setosus was calculated. This analysis revealed an annual output of about one egg-mass close to the species northern and southern distributional limits in Casma (9°S) and Ancud (43°S), respectively, while at Coquimbo (29°S) about two and in Concepción (36°S) more than 3 egg-masses are produced per year

    Czyje jest miasto? Kilka uwag o jednej powieści K.M. Bakowa

    The article looks at the question of using urban studies as a set of interpretive techniques in analyzing popular literature – especially in its most popular genre – crime fiction. On the basis of K.M. Bakow’s debut novel Albatros i hiena [Albatross and hyena], set in Bielsko-Biała, the author of the article shows how the criminal intrigue is enriched by a specific way of showing urban space and how it relates to the main character, detective Ewa Orlowska. The proposed model of interpretation can be used in discussing subsequent novels by the author of Padlinożercy [Scavengers] and fits into the framework of geopoetics and text [email protected] Literaturoznawstwa, Uniwersytet ŚląskiBakow K.

    Neural Networks for Assessment of Flight Deck Human-Automation Interaction Dataset

    No full text
    The files contained in this folder are the basis for the human-automation relationship taxonomy (HART), which has been developed to predict human-automation interaction (HAI). HART attempts to model the human-automation relationship using a multi-dimensional description of the automation itself, the task for which the automation is used, the context in which the automation is used, and the operator. For a more thorough discussion of this approach, please see the two publications listed below.Related publication: K.B. Sullivan, K.M. Feigh, R. Mappus IV, F.T. Durso, U. Fischer, V. Pop, K.L.
