Abstract

A stellar occultation by Neptune's main satellite, Triton, was observed on 5 October 2017 from Europe, North Africa, and the USA. We derived 90 light curves from this event, 42 of which yielded a central flash detection. We aimed at constraining Triton's atmospheric structure and the seasonal variations of its atmospheric pressure since the Voyager 2 epoch (1989). We also derived the shape of the lower atmosphere from central flash analysis. We used Abel inversions and direct ray-tracing code to provide the density, pressure, and temperature profiles in the altitude range $\sim$8 km to $\sim$190 km, corresponding to pressure levels from 9 {\mu}bar down to a few nanobars. Results. (i) A pressure of 1.18$\pm$0.03 {\mu}bar is found at a reference radius of 1400 km (47 km altitude). (ii) A new analysis of the Voyager 2 radio science occultation shows that this is consistent with an extrapolation of pressure down to the surface pressure obtained in 1989. (iii) A survey of occultations obtained between 1989 and 2017 suggests that an enhancement in surface pressure as reported during the 1990s might be real, but debatable, due to very few high S/N light curves and data accessible for reanalysis. The volatile transport model analysed supports a moderate increase in surface pressure, with a maximum value around 2005-2015 no higher than 23 {\mu}bar. The pressures observed in 1995-1997 and 2017 appear mutually inconsistent with the volatile transport model presented here. (iv) The central flash structure does not show evidence of an atmospheric distortion. We find an upper limit of 0.0011 for the apparent oblateness of the atmosphere near the 8 km altitude., Comment: 52 pages, 26 figures in the main paper, 2 figures in appendix B, 9 figures in appendix C, 1 long table over 5 pages

Abstract

Since biotechnological research becomes more and more important for industrial applications, there is an increasing need for scalable and controllable laboratory procedures. A widely used approach in biotechnological research to improve the performance of a process is to vary the growth rates in order to find the right balance between growth and the production. This can be achieved by the application of a suitable feeding strategy. During this initial bioprocess development, it is beneficial to have at hand cheap and easy setups that work in parallel (e.g. in shaking flasks). Unfortunately, there is a gap between these easy setups and defined and controllable processes, which are necessary for up-scaling to an industrial relevant volume. One prerequisite to test and evaluate different process strategies apart from batch-mode is the availability of pump systems that allow for defined feeding profiles in shaking flasks. To our knowledge, there is no suitable dosing device on the market which fulfils the requirements of being cheap, precise, programmable, and parallelizable. Commercially available dosing units are either already integrated in bioreactors and therefore inflexible, or not programmable, or expensive, or a combination of those. Here, we present a LEGO-MINDSTORMS-based syringe pump, which has the potential of being widely used in daily laboratory routine due to its low price, programmability, and parallelisability. The acquisition costs do not exceed 350 € for up to four dosing units, that are independently controllable with one EV3 block. The system covers flow rates ranging from 0.7 μL min-1 up to 210 mL min-1 with a reliable flux. One dosing unit can convey at maximum a volume of 20 mL (using all 4 units even up to 80 mL in total) over the whole process time. The design of the dosing unit enables the user to perform experiments with up to four different growth rates in parallel (each measured in triplicates) per EV3-block used. We estimate, that the LEGO-MINDSTORMS-based dosing unit with 12 syringes in parallel is reducing the costs up to 50-fold compared to a trivial version of a commercial pump system (~1500 €) which fits the same requirements. Using the pump, we set the growth rates of a E. coli HMS174/DE3 culture to values between 0.1 and 0.4 h-1 with a standard deviation of at best 0.35% and an average discrepancy of 13.2%. Additionally, we determined the energy demand of a culture for the maintenance of the pTRA-51hd plasmid by quantifying the changes in biomass yield with different growth rates set. Around 25% of total substrate taken up is used for plasmid maintenance. To present possible applications and show the flexibility of the system, we applied a constant feed to perform microencapsulation of Pseudomonas putida and an individual dosing profile for the purification of a his-tagged eGFP via IMAC. This smart and versatile dosing unit, which is ready-to-use without any prior knowledge in electronics and control, is affordable for everyone and due to its flexibility and broad application range a valuable addition to the laboratory routine.

Abstract

Oil-producing yeast cells are a valuable alternative source for palm oil production and, hence, may be one important piece of the puzzle for a more sustainable future. To achieve a high-quality product, the lipid composition inside oil-producing yeast cells is a crucial parameter for effective process control. Typically, the lipid composition is determined by off-line gas chromatography. A faster, less cumbersome approach is proposed here, by using non-invasive in-line Raman spectroscopy. A fed-batch fermentation of C. oleaginosus – a well-known oleaginous yeast – is used as model experiment to highlight the potential of Raman spectroscopy for in-line lipidomics. The temporal progression of biomass formation, lipid production and glucose consumption are determined based on PLS-regression models allowing process-relevant information on time to be accessed. Additionally, Gaussian curve fitting was applied to extract increasing and decreasing trends of saturated and unsaturated fatty acids produced by C. oleaginosus throughout the fermentation process.

Abstract

Context. A stellar occultation by Neptune's main satellite, Triton, was observed on 5 October 2017 from Europe, North Africa, and the USA. We derived 90 light curves from this event, 42 of which yielded a central flash detection. Aims. We aimed at constraining Triton's atmospheric structure and the seasonal variations of its atmospheric pressure since the Voyager 2 epoch (1989). We also derived the shape of the lower atmosphere from central flash analysis. Methods. We used Abel inversions and direct ray-tracing code to provide the density, pressure, and temperature profiles in the altitude range ∼8 km to ∼190 km, corresponding to pressure levels from 9 μbar down to a few nanobars. Results. (i) A pressure of 1.18 ± 0.03 μbar is found at a reference radius of 1400 km (47 km altitude). (ii) A new analysis of the Voyager 2 radio science occultation shows that this is consistent with an extrapolation of pressure down to the surface pressure obtained in 1989. (iii) A survey of occultations obtained between 1989 and 2017 suggests that an enhancement in surface pressure as reported during the 1990s might be real, but debatable, due to very few high S/N light curves and data accessible for reanalysis. The volatile transport model analysed supports a moderate increase in surface pressure, with a maximum value around 2005-2015 no higher than 23 μbar. The pressures observed in 1995-1997 and 2017 appear mutually inconsistent with the volatile transport model presented here. (iv) The central flash structure does not show evidence of an atmospheric distortion. We find an upper limit of 0.0011 for the apparent oblateness of the atmosphere near the 8 km altitude. ©

(iii) A survey of occultations obtained between 1989 and 2017 suggests that an enhancement in surface pressure as reported during the 1990s might be real, but debatable, due to very few high S/N light curves and data accessible for reanalysis. The volatile transport model analysed supports a moderate increase in surface pressure, with a maximum value around 2005-2015 no higher than 23 mu bar. The pressures observed in 1995-1997 and 2017 appear mutually inconsistent with the volatile transport model presented here. (iv) The central flash structure does not show evidence of an atmospheric distortion.

Abstract

The landscape of the Rhine River valley between Chur and Ilanz bears the signature of two remarkable events that happened shortly after the end of the Last Glacial Period. Two huge rockslides blocked the river and formed upstream lakes. The Flims rockslide (10 km3) liquefied about 1 km3 of alluvial and lacustrine sediments, and the liquefied slurry flowed down the Vorderrhein Valley, over the older Tamins rockslide barrier, and far up the Hinterrhein Valley. The deposit of this slurry, termed Bonaduz gravel, rafted huge masses of rockslide material (‘tumas’). Soon after these momentous events, the Vorderrhein and Hinterrhein rivers cut down through the rockslide deposits and the Bonaduz gravel, while Lake Ilanz, impounded behind the Flims rockslide barrier, drained in a series of huge downstream floods. A legacy of these events is the Rhine gorge, which was cut by the Vorderrhein River where it flowed across the Flims rockslide barrier.

Abstract

The origin of the Bonaduz gravel (Switzerland) in the vicinity of the large Holocene Flims rock slide deposits has been discussed for a century. The internal structure shows many features that imply transport as an over-sized mud/debris stream. This flow of gravel, sand and fines must have been triggered by the mobilisation of the valley alluvium by the impact of the rock slide. The mobilised mud with a volume of several 100 million m 3 must have had enormous transport capacities as large units of loose material were transported over kilometres without breaking apart. Accordingly, the shear forces in the flow must have been negligible. Similar features have been found at several other sites in the Alps, all in the vicinity of large rock slides. Our interpretation of these sediments as catastrophic mass movement deposits suggests that such events could happen again, also in other parts of the world.

Abstract

The huge Flims rockslide in the Swiss Alps has been the focus of scientific study for over 100 years, whereas a nearby rockslide at Tamins that occurred only slightly earlier, is understudied. Field investigations of the Tamins rockslide has provided new insights in its history, as well as that of the Flims rockslide. These investigations, complemented by interpretation of LiDAR imagery, has allowed us to document the sequence of postglacial events in the Vorderrhein river valley. We confirm the hypothesis that the Flims rockslide induced a large debris stream that transported huge volumes of liquefied alluvium, as well as large rafts of rock slide debris (Toma hills), many kilometers both down the Vordderrhein and up the Hinterrhein, its major tributary. The older Tamins rockslide partially impeded and was overrun by the debris stream, dividing it into two lobes.

Abstract

Permafrost in the Alps occurs within three main landforms - rock glaciers, debris slopes and steep bedrock. In contrast to rock glaciers and debris slopes, permafrost in steep bedrock reacts directly, fast and sensitively to changes in atmospheric conditions and these areas are therefore important for monitoring purposes. In addition, the observation of the state and changes of permafrost in steep bedrock is relevant for the stability and maintenance of infrastructure as well as the assessment and possible change of slope stability in high mountain areas. Mainly due to the difficulties of access, however, mountain permafrost monitoring activities in the Alps have concentrated on rock glaciers and debris slopes in their beginning more than 20 years ago and only started to focus on bedrock permafrost in the past decade. During the past about 5 years a number of new boreholes with depths ranging from 10 to 60 m have been installed in the scope of different research and monitoring projects at high Alpine sites in Switzerland (e.g., Schilthorn, Matterhorn, Gemsstock), Germany (e.g., Zugspitze), and France (e.g., Aiguille du Midi). Several of the boreholes have been drilled across a crest or perpendicular to the surface. In this contribution, we compare the data and discuss the main results gained from the different borehole sites in steep bedrock. Because of the limited observation period, the extreme spatial variability in these areas, and the invisibility of the phenomenon, we combine the point measurements with numerical heat conduction modeling for extrapolation in time and space to allow a more comprehensive interpretation. In addition to the basic characteristics that the temperature regime in bedrock is mainly controlled by conduction and no thick surface cover (such as snow, debris, blocks) or latent heat effects (low ice contents) mask the changes in atmospheric conditions, a number of specifics of permafrost temperatures in steep bedrock can be observed: a) the influence of different climatic conditions on the thermal regime, b) the influence of the surface geometry (steep topography) on the three-dimensional temperature field, b) the accelerating effect of steep topography on the pace at which changes at the surface are propagated into the subsurface (multi-lateral warming), c) the cooling effect of a thin snow cover, which is often present in such terrain, and d) the cooling effect of ventilation in clefts.

Abstract

A concept to electrically control the scattering of light is introduced. The idea is to embed noble metal nanoparticles in an electro-optical material such as a liquid crystal in order to induce a spectral shift of the particle plasmon resonance by applying an electric field. Light scattering experiments on single gold nanoparticles show that spherically shaped nanoparticles become optically spheroidal when covered by an anisotropic liquid crystal. The two particle plasmon resonances of the optically spheroidal gold nanoparticles can be spectrally shifted by up to 50 meV when electric fields of more than 10 kV/cm are applied.

Abstract

The Flims rockslide blocked at about 8,200 year BP the Vorderrhein river and so gave rise to the Paleo-Lake Ilanz. Shortly after the filling of the lake a severe flood event happened. The lake emptied not totally, but remained at a lower level for a long time. After important and perhaps even complete filling of the remaining basin with sediments the incision in the dam restarted and progressed in several smaller steps. Based on the detailed field works, the following sequence of the events can be envisioned: The Tamins rockslide occurred first, damming Lake Bonaduz; the Flims slide come down soon after and probably entered in this lake; at the same time the alluvium was mobilized and resedimented as Bonaduz gravel; Lake Ilanz was dammed to a level between 820 and 936 m for very short time; the dam broke partly and a flood happened; the remaining lake survived for a long time and was filled up; the Rhein river eroded the floodplain down to the actual level.

Abstract

Im Gebiet der Zugspitze, dem mit 2962 m ü.M. höchsten Berg Deutschlands, sind auch die bedeutendsten Permafrostvorkommen des Landes zu finden. Der Felsgrat der Zugspitze ist steil und stark bebaut. Schon während der Bauarbeiten in den 1960er Jahren wurden massives Eis in Klüften und gefrorene Lockersedimente entdeckt. Allfällige Stabilitätsprobleme durch Permafrostdegradation können entscheidende Konsequenzen auf Bauwerke haben. Deshalb wurde im August 2007 für langfristige Permafrostbeobachtung eine Bohrung quer durch den Gipfelgrat gemacht und mit einer Thermistorenkette ausgestattet. In einer Vorstudie wurden die Temperaturverhältnisse mit Computermodellen simuliert. Resultate zeigen Permafrost mit Temperaturen bis etwa -3 °C in der Nordseite und in Teilen der Südseite. Die Permafrostgrenze verläuft im Inneren des Grates und ist im oberen Bereich fast senkrecht. Die nach der Realisierung der Bohrung gemessenen Temperaturen sind etwas niedriger als im Modell, stimmen aber im Allgemeinen gut mit den Ergebnissen der Simulation überein, insbesondere wenn auch transiente Effekte und der Einfluss latenter Wärme berücksichtigt werden. Monitoring und Modellstudien des Permafrosts in der Zugspitze werden im Rahmen von internationalen Projekten weitergeführt und ausgebaut.

Abstract

We report on electrically controlled light scattering where electric fields are used to spectrally shift the plasmon resonance of spherical noble metal nanoparticles. Applying external electric fields to the liquid crystal induces a reorientation of the molecules and therefore a reorientation of the anisotropy. This results in a field-induced shift of the plasmon peak , which may be useful for the realization of novel optoelectronic switching devices.

Abstract

Summary form only given. Electrically controlled switching of light is a key ingredient in modern optical communication and display systems. Up to now such optoelectronic scattering devices do not take advantage of noble metal nanoparticles, which are known to act as strong light scatterers when the frequency of the light is in the spectral range of the particle plasmon resonance. This resonance frequency not only depends on particle properties but also on the refractive index of the surrounding medium. We report on electrically controllable light scattering where electric fields are used to spectrally shift the particle plasmon resonance of spherical noble metal nanoparticles. The basic idea is that the electric field alters the refractive index of the embedding dielectric matrix. For this purpose, spherical noble metal nanoparticles are incorporated in a liquid crystal. An applied electric field aligns the liquid crystal molecules leading to an anisotropic refractive index and thus to a polarization dependent spectral shift of the particle plasmon. Light scattering spectra of an individual gold nanoparticle taken with a dark-field microscope setup are shown.

36. Danger map for the Bavarian Alps [Die Gefahrenhinweiskarte für die Bayerischen Alpen]

Abstract

Information about geological hazards in the Bavarian Alps (e.g. rockfalls, landslides) is available in the internet or intranet section "Georisk" of the "Bodeninformationssystem Bayern" (BIS-BY; www.bis.bayern.de). A number of departments like district administrations, water and traffic management offices, forest management as well as private users already use this information system. By now the BIS-BY only shows the sites of origin of geological hazards and not the whole endangered area which would be relevant for land use planning. This area, the so-called process area, can only be defined by empirical or numerical simulations and models.A danger map gives an overview about the situation. It is based on model calculations and empirical analyses and can be verified by the Georisk cadastre (BIS-BY). Concerning the spatial extent of the process areas, possible inaccuracies may impair an exact expression of the danger. The danger map shows for large areas where to assume a special type of danger. So it will be easier to deduce possible conflicts between danger and land use. Danger maps can be included in the land development plan or can be used to assign priorities while taking measures.
