    The SeisComP seismological software package (2008)
    GFZ Data Services
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-06-14
    Description: Abstract
    Description: SeisComP is a seismological software for data acquisition, processing, distribution and interactive analysis. The seismological software package has evolved within a decade from pure acquisition modules to a fully featured real-time earthquake monitoring software. The SeedLink protocol for seismic data transmission has been the core of SeisComP from the very beginning. Later additions included simple, purely automatic event detection, location and magnitude determination capabilities. Especially within the development of the 3rd-generation SeisComP, also known as SeisComP3 automatic processing capabilities have been augmented by graphical user interfaces (GUIs) for visualization, rapid event review and quality control.Communication between the modules is achieved using a dedicated messaging system that allows distributed computing and remote review. For seismological metadata exchange export/import tools to/from QuakeML and FDSN StationXML are available, which also provide convenient interfaces with 3rd-party software. The initial SeisComP3 development took place at GFZ between 2006 and 2008 within the GITEWS project (German Indonesian Tsunami Early Warning System) and continued with increasing engagement of gempa GmbH, a software company established by the initial development team of the GFZ.

    The difference between pollen types and plant taxa: a plea for clarity and scientific freedom (2007)
    Geozon Science Media
    Details
    Publication Date: 2024-02-28
    Description: Dieser Artikel diskutiert den Charakter von Pollentypen. Wir argumentieren, dass Pollentypen und Pflanzentaxa komplett unterschiedliche Entitäten (morphologische bzw. taxonomische) sind, und deswegen unterschiedlich behandelt und dargestellt werden sollten. Allgemeine Probleme der konventionellen Nomenklatur von Pollentypen werden anhand von Beispielen aus der europäischen palynologischen Praxis illustriert. Wir plädieren für Deutlichkeit in der Nomenklatur von Pollentypen und für die wissenschaftliche Freiheit, ‘unkonventionelle‘ Methoden zu benutzen, um Verwirrung zu vermeiden.

    Thermal properties of gas hydrate bearing sediments and effects of phase transitions on the transport of heat deduced from temperature logging at Mallik, NWT, Canada (2005)
    GFZ, Helmholtz-Zentrum
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-08-29
    Description: Detailed knowledge about the thermal properties of rocks containing gas hydrate is required in order to quantify processes involving the formation and decomposition of gas hydrate in nature. This work investigates the influence of methane hydrate on the transport of heat in hydrate-bearing rocks. Both the thermal conductivity of gashydrate bearing sediments and the thermal effects of phase transitions are analyzed. In the framework of the Mallik 2002 program three wells penetrating a continental gas hydrate occurrence under permafrost were successfully equipped with permanent fiberoptic distributed temperature sensing cables. Temperature data were collected over a period of 21 months after completion of the wells. The analysis of the disturbed well temperatures after drilling revealed a strong effect of phase transitions on temperature changes. For the first time, the effects of induced temperature changes within a gas hydrate deposit were monitored in-situ. The resulting temperature gradient anomalies could be successfully utilized to determine the base of the gas hydrate occurrences and the permafrost layer at about 1103-1104±3.5 m and 599-604±3.5 m below ground level respectively. At the end of the 21-month observation period, the well temperature returned close to equilibrium with the formation temperature. At the base of the gas hydrate occurrences a temperature of 12.3 ◦C was measured, which is about 0.7 K below the stability temperature predicted by thermodynamic calculations considering a pressure gradient of 10.12 kPa m〈sup〉−1〈/sup〉 and a sea-water salinity of 35 ppt. Under the stated conditions, the base of the stability zone of methane hydrate at Mallik would lie at about 1140 m below ground level. Thermal conductivity profiles were calculated from the geothermal data as well as from a petrophysical model derived from the available logging data and application of mixing-law models. The results indicate, that variations of thermal conductivity are mainly lithologically controlled with a minor influence from hydrate saturation. The results of the geometric mean model showed the best agreement to the thermal conductivity profiles derived from geothermal data. Average thermal conductivity values of the hydrate-bearing intervals range between 2.35 W m〈sup〉−1〈/sup〉 K〈sup〉−1〈/sup〉 and 2.77 W m〈sup〉−1〈/sup〉 K〈sup〉−1〈/sup〉 . A simplified numerical model of conductive heat flow was set up in order to assess the temperature effect of phase transitions within the gas hydrate bearing strata. Within the model the mobilization of latent heat during the phase transition was considered (enthalpy method), taking into account the stability conditions for methane hydrate at Mallik (pressure, temperature, pore fluid and gas phase composition) as well as effects of hydrate decomposition on the thermal rock properties. The modelling results indicate, that the regeneration of hydrate after the recovery of stability conditions is inhibited.

    Transgovernance: advancing sustainability governance (2013)
    Springer
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-07-18
    Description: ‘Transgovernance: Advancing Sustainability Governance’ analyses what implications recent and ongoing changes in the relations between politics, science and media – together characterized as the emergence of a knowledge democracy – may have for governance for sustainable development, on global and other levels of societal decision making, and vice versa: How can the discussion on sustainable development contribute to a knowledge democracy? How can concepts such as second modernity, reflexivity, configuration theory, (meta)governance theory and cultural theory contribute to a ‘transgovernance’ approach which goes beyond mainstream sustainability governance? This volume presents contributions from various angles: international relations, governance and metagovernance theory, (environmental) economics and innovation science. It offers challenging insights regarding institutions and transformation processes, and into the paradigms behind contemporary sustainability governance. This book gives the sustainability governance debate a new context. It transforms classical questions into new options for societal decision making and identifies starting points and strategies aimed at effective governance of transitions to sustainability.

    Taking Boundary Work Seriously: Towards a Systemic Approach to the Analysis of Interactions Between Knowledge Production and Decision-Making on Sustainable Development (2013)
    In:  Transgovernance: advancing sustainability governance
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-07-18
    Description: The concept of boundary work has been put forward as an analytical approach towards the study of interactions between science and policy. While the concept has been useful as a case-study approach, there are several weaknesses and constraints when using the concept in a more systemic analysis of the interactions between knowledge production and sustainable development decision-making at the international level, such as its inability to capture the diversity of institutions involved in such boundary work. Another inability involves a lack of conceptualisation of the impacts of the specific conditions of intergovernmental decision-making, such as rules for representation and the mode of negotiation. This chapter suggests complementing the concept of boundary work with a configuration approach based on a two-dimensional conceptualisation of the boundary space in international decision-making that allows the positioning of institutions with regard to their degree of politicisation and their position in terms of national and regional representation. Such an approach could be a useful guide in the further conceptualisation and application of the boundary concept.

    Carbohydrate-derived hydrothermal carbons: A thorough characterization study (2012)
    In:  Langmuir
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-07-18
    Description: Hydrothermal carbonization (HTC) is an aqueous-phase route to produce carbon materials using biomass or biomass-derived precursors. In this paper, a comprehensive physicochemical and textural characterization of HTC materials obtained using four different precursors, namely, xylose, glucose, sucrose, and starch, is presented. The development of porosity in the prepared HTC materials as a function of thermal treatment (under an inert atmosphere) was specifically monitored using N2 and CO2 sorption analysis. The events taking place during the thermal treatment process were studied by a combined thermogravimetric/infrared (TGA-IR) measurement. Interestingly, these inexpensive biomass-derived carbon materials show good selectivity for CO2 adsorption over N2 (CO2/N2 selectivity of 20 at 273 K, 1 bar and 1:1 gas composition). Furthermore, the elemental composition, morphologies, degree of structural order, surface charge, and functional groups are also investigated.

    The Urban Land Grab - Challenges to Soil Management (2013)
    In:  Soils of Urban, Industrial, Traffic, Mining and Military Areas. SUITMA 7. Abstracts
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-07-18
    Description: The recognition of soils and their functions by the public and, in particular, the planning community isgenerally poor. However, conversion of soils to urban uses is occurring at an unprecedented rate dueto an increasing share of the population living in urban areas and changing lifestyles. Urban planners,developers and planning agencies allocate urban lands to varying uses but land use decisions aregenerally not based on soil information as urban growth is managed predominantly for economicdevelopment. However, urban areas must also deal with challenges such as demographic change,urban densification, climate change and infrastructure provision. Thus, managing urban sustainabilityhas to include ecological aside economic, cultural, and political dimensions. Urban developmentneeds to be managed to minimize negative impacts and maximize environmental quality. Policydecisions towards maximizing short-term economic benefits must be balanced by decisions towardssustainable use and management of urban soils as urban land use has long-term consequences. Therecognition of soils by the planning community can particularly be improved by highlighting the valueof urban soil functions for the well-being of urban dwellers. This approach was recommended at thedialogue session ’Urbanization: Challenges to Soil Management‘ during the first Global Soil Week2012 in Berlin, Germany. Further suggestions how to raise the awareness about urban soils and howto deal with challenges regarding their management will be presented.

    The meridional temperature gradient in the eastern North Atlantic during MIS 11 and its link to the ocean–atmosphere system (2012)
    In:  Palaeogeography, Palaeoclimatology, Palaeoecology
    Details
    Publication Date: 2023-07-18
    Description: Temporal and spatial patterns in eastern North Atlantic sea-surface temperatures (SST) were reconstructed for marine isotope stage (MIS) 11c using a submeridional transect of five sediment cores. The SST reconstructions are based on planktic foraminiferal abundances and alkenone indices, and are supported by benthic and planktic stable isotope measurements, as well as by ice-rafted debris content in polar and middle latitudes. Additionally, the larger-scale dynamics of the precipitation regime over northern Africa and the western Mediterranean region was evaluated from iron concentrations in marine sediments off NW Africa and planktic δ 13C in combination with analysis of planktic foraminiferal abundances down to the species level in the Mediterranean Sea. Compared to the modern situation, it is revealed that during entire MIS 11c sensu stricto (ss), i.e., between 420 and 398ka according to our age models, a cold SST anomaly in the Nordic seas co-existed with a warm SST anomaly in the middle latitudes and the subtropics, resulting in steeper meridional SST gradients than during the Holocene. Such a SST pattern correlates well with a prevalence of a negative mode of the modern North Atlantic Oscillation. We suggest that our scenario might partly explain the longer duration of wet conditions in the northern Africa during MIS 11c compared to the Holocene.
