The Turbulent Cascade and Proton Heating in the Solar Wind at 1 AU
TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the convergence of third-order structure function expressions derived to measure the rate of turbulent energy cascade within the solar wind using Advanced Composition Explorer observations from 1 AU over the years 1998 through 2007.
Journal ArticleDOI
Supernova Type Ia Luminosities, Their Dependence on Second Parameters, and the Value of H 0
TL;DR: In this paper, a sample of 35 Type Ia supernovae (SNe Ia) with good to excellent photometry in B and V, minimum internal absorption, and 1200 < v 30,000 km s-1 is compiled from the literature.

Inés L. Cifuentes,Paul G. Silver +1 more
TL;DR: The low-frequency nature of the great 1960 Chilean earthquake, the Earth's largest recorded event, is characterized and a source model composed of three events with a combined seismic moment of 5.5 × 1023 N m and a duration of 1500 s is presented in this paper.

Pigments and species composition of natural phytoplankton populations: effect on the absorption spectra
Venetia Stuart,Shubha Sathyendranath,Shubha Sathyendranath,Trevor Platt,Heidi Maass,Brian D Irwin +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, three cruises (Arabesque 1 and 2 cruises in the Arabian Sea and the Vancouver Island cruise) were examined to assess the importance of species composition and accessory pigments in modifying specific absorption coefficients.

Late Pleistocene luminescence chronology of loess deposition in the Missouri and Mississippi river valleys, United States
Steven L. Forman,James Pierson +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors used IRSL and single aliquot regeneration (SAR) protocols to date the ages of loess at the Loveland Silt type locality, Iowa, the Pleasant Grove School section, Illinois, and the Bonfils Quarry section, Missouri.
