Das Projekt "The Atmospheric Side of the Freshwater Budget" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Universität Hamburg, Fachbereich Erdsystemwissenschaften, Meteorologisches Institut durchgeführt. The focus of this project is to analyse the observed surface freshwater fluxes through improved estimates of evaporation and precipitation and their individual error characteristics in the HOAPS climatology and its ground validation in climate-related hotspots of the Atlantic Ocean. To enable that in a consistent manner we propose to establish an error characterization of the HOAPS evaporation data by triple collocations with ship and buoy measurements and between individual satellites and to improve the error characterization of the HOAPS precipitation by analysing available shipboard disdrometer data using point to area statistics. After these improvements, an analysis of the spatio-temporal variability of the surface fresh water balance E-P over the Atlantic Ocean is planned, especially with respect to the Hadley circulation and the hotspot regions of interest to related WPs. Also the atmospheric water transport shall be analysed in order to find the source or target region of local fresh water imbalances. And finally, a consistent inter-comparison of the upcoming global ocean surface salinity fields from SMOS with freshwater fluxes from the HOAPS climatology is proposed.
Das Projekt "The iron-snow regime in Fe-FeS cores: a numerical and experimental approach" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Helmholtz-Zentrum Dresden-Roßendorf, Institut für Fluiddynamik durchgeführt. In the Earth, the dynamo action is strongly linked to core freezing. There is a solid inner core, the growth of which provides a buoyancy flux that drives the dynamo. The buoyancy in this case derives from a difference in composition between the solid inner core and the fluid outer core. In planetary bodies smaller than the Earth, however, this core differentiation process may differ - Fe may precipitate at the core-mantle boundary (CMB) rather than in the center and may fall as iron snow and initially remelt with greater depth. A chemical stable sedimentation zone develops that comprises with time the entire core - at that time a solid inner core starts to grow. The dynamics of this system is not well understood and also whether it can generate a magnetic field or not. The Jovian moon Ganymede, which shows a present-day magnetic dipole field, is a candidate for which such a scenario has been suggested. We plan to study this Fe-snow regime with both a numerical and experimental approach. In the numerical study, we use a 2D/3D thermo-chemical convection model that considers crystallization and sinking of iron crystals together with the dynamics of the liquid core phase (for the 3D case the influence of the rotation of the Fe snow process is further studied).The numerical calculations will be complemented by two series of experiments: (1) investigations in metal alloys by means of X-ray radioscopy, and (2) measurements in transparent analogues by optical techniques. The experiments will examine typical features of the iron snow regime. On the one hand they will serve as a tool to validate the numerical approach and on the other hand they will yield important insight into sub-processes of the iron snow regime, which cannot be accessed within the numerical approach due to their complexity.
Das Projekt "Co-estimation of the Earth main magnetic field and the ionospheric variation field" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Universität Potsdam, Institut für Mathematik durchgeführt. The aim of this project is to co-estimate models of the core and ionosphere magnetic fields, with the longer-term view of building a 'comprehensive' model of the Earths magnetic field. In this first step we would like to take advantage of the progresses made in the understanding of the ionosphere by global M-I-T modelling to better separate the core and ionospheric signals in satellite data. The magnetic signal generated in the ionosphere is particularly difficult to handle because satellite data provide only information on a very narrow local time window at a time. To get around this difficulty, we would like to apply a technique derived from assimilation methods and that has been already successfully applied in outer-core flow studies. The technique relies on a theoretical model of the ionosphere such as the Upper Atmosphere Model (UAM), where statistics on the deviations from a simple background model are estimated. The derived statistics provided in a covariance matrix format can then be use directly in the magnetic data inversion process to obtain the expected core and ionospheric models. We plan to apply the technique on the German CHAMP satellite data selected for magnetically quiet times. As an output we should obtain a model of the ionospheric magnetic variation field tailored for the selected data and a core-lithosphere field model where possible leakage from ionospheric signals are avoided or at least reduced. The technique can in theory be easily extended to handle the large-scale field generated in the magnetosphere.

Das Projekt "Molecular determinants of host specificity of maize-, rice- and mango-pathogenic species of the genus Fusarium" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Helmholtz Zentrum München, Institut für Bioinformatik und Systembiologie (IBIS) durchgeführt. Fusarium species of the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex cause serious diseases on different crops such as rice, wheat and maize. An important group of plant pathogens is the Gibberella fujikuroi species complex (GFC) of closely related Fusarium species which are associated with specific hosts; F. verticillioides and F. proliferatum are particularly associated with maize where they can cause serious ear-, root-, and stalk rot diseases. Two other closely related species of the GFC, F. mangiferae and F. fujikuroi, which share about 90Prozent sequence identity with F. verticillioides, are pathogens on mango and rice, respectively. All of these species produce a broad spectrum of secondary metabolites such as phytohormones (gibberellins, auxins, and cytokinins), and harmful mycotoxins, such as fumonisin, fusarin C, or fusaric acid in large quantities. However, the spectrum of those mycotoxins might differ between closely related species suggesting that secondary metabolites might be determinants for host specificity. In this project, we will study the potential impact of secondary metabolites (i.e. phytohormones and certain mycotoxins) and some other species-specific factors (e.g. species-specific transcription factors) on host specificity. The recently sequenced genomes of F. mangiferae and F. fujikuroi by our groups and the planned sequencing of F. proliferatum will help to identify such determinants by genetic manipulation of the appropriate metabolic pathway(s).
Das Projekt "In-situ Messungen von eiskeimbildenden Partikeln (INP) und quantitative Bestimmung von biologischen INP" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Johann Wolfgang Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main, Institut für Atmosphäre und Umwelt durchgeführt. Die Bildung der Eis Phase in der Troposphäre stellt einen wichtigen Fokus der aktuellen Atmosphärenforschung dar. Durch heterogene Nukleation entstehen bei Temperaturen oberhalb von -37°C primäre Eiskristalle an sogenannten eiskeimbildenden Partikeln (INP, engl, ice nucleating particles). Die räumliche Verteilung der INP und deren Quellen variieren stark. In der Atmosphäre finden sich INP nur in sehr geringer Anzahlkonzentration, oft weniger als ein Partikel pro Liter, und sie stellen nur eine kleine Untergruppe des gesamten atmosphärischen Aerosols dar. Ziel dieses Antrages ist es die Anzahlkonzentrationen von eiskeimbildenden Partikeln und deren Variabilität in der Atmosphäre zu messen. Außerdem sind Laborstudien geplant, in denen unser Verständnis über die chemischen und biologischen Eigenschaften der Partikel, die die Eisbildung initiieren, verbessert werden soll. Mit dem von unserer Arbeitsgruppe entwickelten Eiskeimzahler FINCH (Fast Ice Nucleaus CHamber) sollen die atmosphärischen Anzahlkonzentrationen von INP bei verschiedenen Gefriertemperaturen und Übersättigungen an mehreren Standorten gemessen werden. Die Kopplung von FINCH mit einem virtuellen Gegenstromimpaktor (CVI, engl, counter-flow virtual impactor, Kooperation mit RP2), die während lNUIT-1 entwickelt und getestet wurde, soll nun weiter charakterisiert und Messungen damit fortgesetzt werden. Bei dieser Methode werden die Eispartikel, die in FINCH gebildet werden, von den unterkühlten Tröpfchen und inaktivierten Partikeln separiert und mit weiteren Messmethoden untersucht. In Kooperation mit RP2 und RP8 planen wir hierbei die Charakterisierung der INP mittels Größen- und Aerosolmassenspektrometer sowie die Sammlung der INP auf Filtern oder Impaktorplatten zur anschließenden Analyse mit einem Elektronenmikroskop (ESEM, engl. DFG fomi 54.011 -04/14 page 3 of 6 Environmental Scanning Electron Microscopy). Die Feldmessdaten werden von umfangreichen Laborstudien an den Forschungseinrichtungen AIDA (RP6) und LACIS (RP7) ergänzt. Dort soll das Immersionsgefrieren von verschiedenen Testpartikeln aus biologischem Material (z.B. Zellulose), porösem Material (z.B. Zeolith) und Mineralstaub mit geringem organischem Anteil im Detail untersucht werden. Des Weiteren planen wir Labormessungen, bei denen eine verbesserte Charakterisierung der Messunsicherheiten von FINCH erarbeitet werden soll. Außerdem werden regelmäßige Tests und Kalibrierungen mit FINCH durchgeführt, für die Standardroutinen festgelegt werden sollen. Um die Rolle der INP bei der Wolken- und Niederschlagsbildung sowie bei den Wolkeneigenschaften abzuschätzen, werden die gewonnenen Messergebnisse am Ende als Eingabeparameter für erweiterte Wolkenmodelle (Kooperation mit WP-M) dienen.
Das Projekt "Linking internal pattern dynamics and integral responses - Identification of dominant controls with a strategic sampling design" wird vom Umweltbundesamt gefördert und von Helmholtz-Zentrum Potsdam Deutsches GeoForschungsZentrum durchgeführt. In hydrology, the relationship between water storage and flow is still fundamental in characterizing and modeling hydrological systems. However, this simplification neglects important aspects of the variability of the hydrological system, such as stable or instable states, tipping points, connectivity, etc. and influences the predictability of hydrological systems, both for extreme events as well as long-term changes. We still lack appropriate data to develop theory linking internal pattern dynamics and integral responses and therefore to identify functionally similar hydrological areas and link this to structural features. We plan to investigate the similarities and differences of the dynamic patterns of state variables and the integral response in replicas of distinct landscape units. A strategic and systematic monitoring network is planned in this project, which contributes the essential dynamic datasets to the research group to characterize EFUs and DFUs and thus significantly improving the usual approach of subdividing the landscape into static entities such as the traditional HRUs. The planned monitoring network is unique and highly innovative in its linkage of surface and subsurface observations and its spatial and temporal resolution and the centerpiece of CAOS.
