The Relative Humidity in an Isentropic Advection–Condensation Model: Limited Poleward Influence and Properties of Subtropical Minima [PDF]
An idealized model of advection and condensation of water vapor is considered as a representation of processes influencing the humidity distribution along isentropic surfaces in the free troposphere.

Sources and sinks of stratospheric water vapor [PDF]
A tutorial review of the understanding of stratospheric H/sub 2/O and the processes controlling it is presented. Paradoxes posed by currently available observational data are cited and suggestions made as to how they might be resolved. Such resolution appears to require: that the bulk of our current data provides unrepresentative and misleading ...

3D/Biela and the Andromedids: Fragmenting versus Sublimating Comets [PDF]
Comet 3D/Biela broke up in 1842/1843 and continued to disintegrate in the returns of 1846 and 1852. When meteor storms were observed in November of 1872 and 1885, it was surmised that those showers were the debris from that breakup.

The association between water kilomasers and compact radio sources in the starburst galaxy NGC2146 [PDF]
We report the detection of 22 GHz water vapor emission toward the starburst galaxy NGC2146, made using the Effelsberg 100-m telescope. Interferometric observations with the Very Large Array (VLA) show that a part of the emission originates from two ...

Lateral mixing as a source of subtropical water vapor [PDF]
It is hypothesized that the subtropical tropospheric water vapor distribution results from the interplay of three factors: subsidence, which brings down dry air from aloft; lateral mixing, which brings in moistened air from the convective region at various rates; and drying by processing of air through the cold extratropics.

HIx system thermodynamic model for hydrogen production by the sulfur-iodine cycle [PDF]
The HIx ternary system (H2O – HI – I2) is the latent source of hydrogen for the Sulfur – Iodine thermo-chemical cycle. After analysis of the literature data and models, a homogeneous approach with the Peng-Robinson equation of state used for both the ...
