The thesis examines the principal air-sea properties at Ocean
Station Vessel N (30N 140W). In a descriptive section, meteorological
and oceanographic data for N are analyzed over 20 years (1951-1970)
and 7 years (1964-1970), respectively. A rainfall estimate is constructed
for the 20 year period. The yearly average rainfall is...
The influence of irregular terrain on the evolution of the daytime
planetary boundary layer (PBL) and meso-β scale dry circulations is
studied using two three-dimensional hydrostatic σ-coordinate models
with different approaches for the PBL parameterizations; the 4-layer
model uses the mixed-layer (bulk-layer) approach, while the 7-layer
model adopts the eddy-diffusivity...
The concentration of ascorbic acid in the plasma was determined on
four levels of ascorbic acid intake for seven day periods in 1946-47 and
on three levels of ascorbic acid intake for ten day periods in 1947-48.
The subjects, eight girls and eight boys, were 16 to 19 year old...
