AmeriFlux FLUXNET-1F CL-ACF Alerce Costero Forest

This is the AmeriFlux Management Project (AMP) created FLUXNET-1F version of the carbon flux data for the site CL-ACF Alerce Costero Forest. This is the FLUXNET version of the carbon flux data for the site CL-ACF Alerce Costero Forest produced by applying the standard ONEFlux (1F) software. Site Description - Tower located in an old-growth coniferous rainforest (~300 years) at the Alerce Costero National Park. The forest is locally known as Alerce type.

On the He/plus/ triplet line intensities.

Check of the adequacy of theoretical calculations of helium-triplet line strengths, including collisional enhancement, by comparing theoretical prediction with astronomical observations. It is shown that the observations of Peimbert and Torres-Peimbert (1971) and of Peimbert and Costero (1969) fit the theoretical predictions rather well, placing planetary nebulae and H II regions in separate density and temperature ranges. It appears that the theory of helium-triplet line strengths agrees with present observations.

Photometry of a bright filament in the Orion nebula

The spectrum of a bright filament in the outer portion of the Orion nebula, 14 min from the Trapezium, was studied. The temperature of the filament, derived from /N II/ lambda 5755/6583 ratio, is 9560 K. The electron density (from /S II/ lambda 6717, 6731) is low: 360 plus or minus 150 per cu cm. The ionic abundances of He(+), N(+), O(++), and S(-) are about the same as Peimbert and Costero (1969) found in regions in Orion closer to the Trapezium. It is concluded that the filament is photoionized, presumably by the Trapezium, rather than a shock front, as had originally been suspected.

Dissolved Organic Carbon in Coastal Waters: Global Patterns, Stocks and Environmental Physical Controls

Abstract Dissolved organic carbon (DOC) in coastal waters is integral to biogeochemical cycling, but global and regional drivers of DOC are still uncertain. In this study we explored spatial and temporal differences in DOC concentrations and stocks across the global coastal ocean, and how these relate to temperature and salinity. We estimated a global median coastal DOC stock of 3.15 Pg C (interquartile range (IQR) = 0.85 Pg C), with median DOC concentrations being 2.2 times higher than in open ocean surface waters. Globally and seasonally, salinity was the main driver of DOC with concentrations correlated negatively with salinity, without a clear relationship to temperature. DOC concentrations and stocks varied with region and season and this pattern is likely driven by riverine inputs of DOC and nutrients that stimulate coastal phytoplankton production. Temporally, high DOC concentrations occurred mainly in months with high freshwater input, with some exceptions such as in Eastern Boundary Current margins where peaks are related to primary production stimulated by nutrients upwelled from the adjacent ocean. No spatial trend between DOC and temperature was apparent, but many regions (19 out of 25) had aligned peaks of seasonal temperature and DOC, related to increased phytoplankton production and vertical stratification at high temperatures. Links of coastal DOC with salinity and temperature highlight the potential for anthropogenic impacts to alter coastal DOC concentration and composition, and thereby ecosystem status.
