    Description: Snowfall was measured at 11 sites in the McMurdo Dry Valleys to determine its magnitude, its temporal changes, and spatial patterns. Annual values ranged from 3 to 50 mm water equivalent with the highest values nearest the coast and decreasing inland. A particularly strong spatial gradient exists in Taylor Valley, probably resulting from local uplift conditions at the coastal margin and valley topography that limits migration inland. More snow occurs in winter near the coast, whereas inland no seasonal pattern is discernable. This may be due, again, to local uplift conditions, which are common in winter. We find no influence of the distance to the sea ice edge. Katabatic winds play an important role in transporting snow to the valley bottoms and essentially double the precipitation. That much of the snow accumulation sublimates prior to making a hydrologic contribution underscores the notion that the McMurdo Dry Valleys are indeed an extreme polar desert.

    In:  Supplement to: Speirs, Johanna C; Steinhoff, Daniel F; McGowan, Hamish A; Bromwich, David H; Monaghan, Andrew J (2010): Foehn Winds in the McMurdo Dry Valleys, Antarctica: The Origin of Extreme Warming Events. Journal of Climate, 23(13), 3577-3598, https://doi.org/10.1175/2010JCLI3382.1

    Description: Foehn winds resulting from topographic modification of airflow in the lee of mountain barriers are frequently experienced in the McMurdo Dry Valleys (MDVs) of Antarctica. Strong foehn winds in the MDVs cause dramatic warming at onset and have significant effects on landscape forming processes; however, no detailed scientific investigation of foehn in the MDVs has been conducted. As a result, they are often misinterpreted as adiabatically warmed katabatic winds draining from the polar plateau. Herein observations from surface weather stations and numerical model output from the Antarctic Mesoscale Prediction System (AMPS) during foehn events in the MDVs are presented. Results show that foehn winds in the MDVs are caused by topographic modification of south-southwesterly airflow, which is channeled into the valleys from higher levels. Modeling of a winter foehn event identifies mountain wave activity similar to that associated with midlatitude foehn winds. These events are found to be caused by strong pressure gradients over the mountain ranges of the MDVs related to synoptic-scale cyclones positioned off the coast of Marie Byrd Land. Analysis of meteorological records for 2006 and 2007 finds an increase of 10% in the frequency of foehn events in 2007 compared to 2006, which corresponds to stronger pressure gradients in the Ross Sea region. It is postulated that the intra- and interannual frequency and intensity of foehn events in the MDVs may therefore vary in response to the position and frequency of cyclones in the Ross Sea region.

    Notes: This paper describes a model which can predict the quantity and lateral distribution of hot-electron-induced interface states in Si metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistors (MOSFETs). The results are obtained using an advanced Monte Carlo method, which incorporates two lowest conduction energy bands from pseudopotential calculations, coupled with an interface state generation model. The coupled model simulates transport-induced hot electron emission from Si into SiO2 and the subsequent generation of interface states in MOSFETs operating under realistic high-voltage stress conditions. The calculations explore the sensitivity of the channel electron energy distribution to various Monte Carlo parameters, such as impact ionization coefficients, self-consistent electron-electron interactions, and surface scattering. Within the validity of our treatments of these physical phenomena, it is shown that while the effects of Monte Carlo parameters on the energy distribution can result in uncertainties in the net interface state generation, quantitative studies may be allowed by using scaling principles. The interface state distribution obtained from the model agrees with experimental data from charge pumping measurements. The model also predicts that the interface state generation extends spatially beyond the range which is accessible by the charge pumping measurements.

    Notes: Since the mid- 1970s, the problem of accountability in local government finance has been referred to consistently in government and has produced a range of responses from the centre. In the 199Os, the problems of implementing the poll tax resulted in its replacement with a modified property tax, supplemented by tight expenditure controls - in Layfield's terms, a ‘centralist’ solution. The centre now provides 85% of local income and controls the upper limits of local spending, leaving only a minor degree of fiscal discretion with local authorities. The new tax arrangements have proved acceptable, as has the grant system, but political conflict remains over the acceptability of capping controls.

    Notes: Wheat plants were grown hydroponically and fed with two sulphate sources differing in stable isotope composition, one having a δ34S of 13·7‰ and the other 4·1‰. Plant sulphur (S) isotope ratios were determined using an on-line continuous flow-isotope ratio mass spectrometer. This method greatly simplified the procedure for the measurement of S isotope ratios, and was found to be precise for samples containing 〉 1 mg S g–1 dry weight. The δ34S values of plant shoots, which had been grown on a single sulphate source, were very close to the source values, suggesting little isotope fractionation during sulphate uptake and transport from roots to shoots. By changing the sulphate sources at different growth stages, it was possible to estimate S accumulation and redistribution within different plant parts. At maturity, wheat grain derived 14, 30, 6 and 50% of its S from the accumulation during the following successive growth stages: between emergence and early stem extension, between stem extension and flag leaf emergence, between flag leaf emergence and anthesis, and after anthesis, respectively. It was estimated that 39, 32 and 52% of the S present in the flag leaves, older leaves and stems, respectively, at anthesis, was exported during the postanthesis period. These results demonstrate considerable cycling of S within wheat plants, and highlight the importance of S uptake after anthesis to the accumulation of S in grain under the experimental conditions employed.
