Ambient aerosol particles in the rural Deep Creek Lake area of western Maryland were size classified with a 6-stage horizontally configured micro-orifice impactor and analyzed for up to 45 elements by instrumental neutron activation analysis. A minimum of 26 elements, including Al, As, Br, Ca, Ce, Cl, Co, Cr, Fe, K, La, Mg, Mn, Na, Se, Sb, V, Ti, and Zn, could be detected on at least three of five submicrometer impaction stages in samples collected for 6–24 h, for which total fine-particulate loadings ranged from 180 to 400 μg. These elements include most of those used in receptor models to apportion the contributions of sources and track the movement of air masses. Analytical uncertainties for many of the elements were < 15% in samples with loadings of 240 and 400 μg. Evidence for particle bounce was observed when sample loadings were ≥1 mg. Substrate blank concentrations often precluded analyses for Ag, Cu, Gd, I, In, Nd, Se, Sm, Ta, Th, and Yb on lightly loaded stages. Contamination by Co, Cr, and Zn was evident in at least some of the samples, as was loss of Br during storage and neutron irradiation.

MULTIMODAL SIZE SPECTRA OF SUBMICROMETER PARTICLES BEARING VARIOUS ELEMENTS IN RURAL AIR
DODD, JA; ONDOV, JM; Tuncel, Süleyman Gürdal; DZUBAY, TG; STEVENS, RK (1991-05-01)
Samples of size-segregated submicrometer aerosol particles were collected with a microorifice impactor near Deep Creek Lake, a recreational area in rural western Maryland, and analyzed for up to 44 elements by instrumental neutron activation and X-ray fluorescence analyses. Differential concentration vs particle size spectra revealed as many as four distinct submicrometer aerosol modes with diameters between 0.09 and 1.0-mu-m in a single sample. The spectra of many elements, including Al, Zn, Na, K, Br, C...
Cyclic palaeokarst surfaces in Aptian peritidal carbonate successions (Taurides, southwest Turkey): internal structure and response to mid-Aptian sea-level fall
Yılmaz, İsmail Ömer; Altıner, Demir (Elsevier BV, 2006-12-01)
The sedimentology and cyclic stratigraphy of palaeokarst structures in Aptian peritidal carbonate successions are interpreted using field and laboratory microfacies analyses of closely spaced samples from measured outcrop stratigraphic sections in southwest Turkey. Cycles displaying shallowing-upward metre-scale cyclicity are generally composed of lime mudstones/wackestones/packestones at the bottom and stromatolites or lime mudstones with charophytes and ostracods at the top. Subaerial exposure structures ...
Numerical modeling and optimization of HgCdTe infrared photodetectors for thermal imaging
Koçer, Hasan; Beşikci, Cengiz; Department of Electrical and Electronics Engineering (2011)
This thesis presents a detailed investigation of the performance limiting factors of long wavelength infrared (LWIR) and very long wavelength infrared (VLWIR) p on n HgCdTe detectors through numerical simulations at 77 K incorporating all considerable generation-recombination mechanisms including trap assisted tunneling (TAT), Shockley-Read-Hall (SRH), Auger and radiative processes. Numerical simulations under dark and illuminated conditions were performed with different absorber layer thicknesses, material...
Thermal Anomaly and Alteration Mineral Mapping in İzmir Dikili Region by using ASTER and Investigation of the Geothermal Potential of the Region
Cambazoğlu, Selim; Yal, Gözde Pınar; Eker, Arif Mert; Koçkar, Mustafa Kerem; Osman, Şen; Akgün, Haluk (null; 2014-03-14)
This study encompasses the detection, mapping and validation of hydrothermal alteration types and minerals, surface temperature anomaly mapping utilizing remote sensing methods in order to assess the geothermal potential of the Dikili region. The study area covers Bergama, Dikili, Çandarlı and Altınova districts located at the northern part of İzmir Province where fumaroles and numerous thermal water outflows with temperatures between 63°C and 89°C are present. The study area is located at the northern part...
Integrated analysis of pressure response using pressure-rate convolution and deconvolution techniques for varied flow rate production in fractured formations
Al-Rbeawi, Salam (Elsevier BV, 2018-03-01)
This paper introduces an integrated analysis for pressure transient behavior of conventional and unconventional multi-porous media reservoirs considering varied flow rate conditions. It focuses on the applications of pressure-rate convolution and deconvolution techniques for analyzing pressure records of homogenous single porous media, double porous media, and triple porous media reservoirs. The tasks covered in this paper are: Deconvloving pressure response, characterizing and developing analytical models ...
