AbstractThe latest configuration of the Hadley Centre Global Environmental Model version 3 (HadGEM3) contains significant changes in the formulation of warm rain processes and aerosols. We evaluate the impacts of these changes in the simulation of warm rain formation processes using A-Train observations. We introduce a new model evaluation tool, quartile-based Contoured Frequency by Optical Depth Diagrams (CFODDs), in order to fill in some blind spots that conventional CFODDs have. Results indicate that HadGEM3 has weak linkage between the size of particle radius and warm rain formation processes, and switching to the new warm rain microphysics scheme causes more difference in warm rain formation processes than switching to the new aerosol scheme through reducing overly produced drizzle mode in HadGEM3. Finally, we run an experiment in which we perturb the second aerosol indirect effect (AIE) to study the rainfall-aerosol interaction in HadGEM3. Since the large changes in the cloud droplet number concentration (CDNC) appear in the AIE experiment, a large impact in warm rain diagnostics is expected. However, regions with large fractional changes in CDNC show a muted change in precipitation, arguably because large-scale constraints act to reduce the impact of such a big change in CDNC. The adjustment in cloud liquid water path to the AIE perturbation produces a large negative shortwave forcing in the midlatitudes.

Structure Properties

In this paper, the possibility of F entering the superconducting phase, its position and the structure properties of the superconductors, and the mechanism of superconductivity in F-doped Bi-systems are studied based on experimental and theoretical results. It has been found that, because the ΔT c is narrowed and [Formula: see text] raised, the T co of F-doped Bi-system superconductors increases obviously, with the highest T co at 118 K, that F has entered into the superconducting phase, that generally F can reduce the potential barrier of forming high-T c superconducting phase and improve the superconductivity of Bi-systems, but only if there exists certain amount of Pb in the system, and that with F-doping the weak linkage of superconductor is decreased, the flux pinning is enhanced, the carrier-hole concentration is increased, and the critical current is improved.

SummaryA spontaneous mutation ‘tich’ (gene symbol tch) appeared as a recessive mutation in inbred mice of strain A. TL. Homozygotes are rather dumpy mice of approximately normal weight but with short limbs and tail. Skeletal measurements on backcross siblings show that the mandible bones are almost normal but long bones and some parts of the pelvic and pectoral girdles are short. Although tich resembles brachypodism phenotypically it is not linked to agouti, and does not match the description of any other skeletal mutation. There was some evidence for weak linkage with albinism on chromosome 7. The mutation has reappeared amongst the A. TL mice of a UK commercial breeder and may have been accepted as the norm for A. TL amongst some European users of this mouse.

Reducing Properties

The degradation of carrageenin in buffered aqueous solution at pH 7.0 has been studied over the temperature range 60° to 101 °C. by following the change in viscosity and reducing properties. Kinetic analysis indicates the occurrence of two reactions: (a) an initial rapid degradation representing only about 0.3% of the complete hydrolysis, followed by (b) a first-order random degradation having k = 2.75 × 1013 e−29,200,/RT hr−1. The latter reaction becomes important at temperatures above 60 °C. The results indicate that carrageenin is more unstable than would be expected of a simple 1–3 galactan, and that two types of weak linkage are involved in the structure of the polysaccharide.
