    Description: Compared to widely used C-band SAR imagery, L-band SAR is a valuable complement in monitoring the Arctic and Antarctic sea ice covers, since it is very sensitive to ice deformation structures. The continuous observation of sea ice and the retrieval of sea ice properties from satellite data has received increased attention from the science community after the extreme minimum of summer arctic sea ice extent observed in 2007, which was followed by an even lower minimum in 2012. Also in operational sea ice monitoring there is an interest in investigating the potential of L-band SAR for sea ice mapping, although spatial coverage and timeliness of L-band data provided by recent satellite missions are still a critical issue for operational services. The concept of the TANGOSat mission will it make possible to address the potential of satellite tandems in gaining additional insights into the interaction between longer microwaves and sea ice. In particular the tomographic and bistatic phase may offer possibilities for specific investigations such as depth of scatterers and structures in thick multi-year ice (as found north of Greenland), quantification of ice surface roughness due to the occurrence of deformation structures, potential improvements of ice type classification, or snapshots of ice drift components by using along-track interferometry. In the presentation, different possibilities of investigations will be discussed.

SEASTAR: A mission to study ocean submesoscale dynamics and small-scale atmosphere-ocean processes in coastal, shelf and polar seas. Frontiers in Marine Science, 6, (2019):457, doi:10.3389/fmars.2019.00457.
    Description: High-resolution satellite images of ocean color and sea surface temperature reveal an abundance of ocean fronts, vortices and filaments at scales below 10 km but measurements of ocean surface dynamics at these scales are rare. There is increasing recognition of the role played by small scale ocean processes in ocean-atmosphere coupling, upper-ocean mixing and ocean vertical transports, with advanced numerical models and in situ observations highlighting fundamental changes in dynamics when scales reach 1 km. Numerous scientific publications highlight the global impact of small oceanic scales on marine ecosystems, operational forecasts and long-term climate projections through strong ageostrophic circulations, large vertical ocean velocities and mixed layer re-stratification. Small-scale processes particularly dominate in coastal, shelf and polar seas where they mediate important exchanges between land, ocean, atmosphere and the cryosphere, e.g., freshwater, pollutants. As numerical models continue to evolve toward finer spatial resolution and increasingly complex coupled atmosphere-wave-ice-ocean systems, modern observing capability lags behind, unable to deliver the high-resolution synoptic measurements of total currents, wind vectors and waves needed to advance understanding, develop better parameterizations and improve model validations, forecasts and projections. SEASTAR is a satellite mission concept that proposes to directly address this critical observational gap with synoptic two-dimensional imaging of total ocean surface current vectors and wind vectors at 1 km resolution and coincident directional wave spectra. Based on major recent advances in squinted along-track Synthetic Aperture Radar interferometry, SEASTAR is an innovative, mature concept with unique demonstrated capabilities, seeking to proceed toward spaceborne implementation within Europe and beyond.

    Notes: The equilibrium geometries, energetics, and hyperfine coupling constants for a number of charged magnesium clusters and magnesium–rare gas complexes are investigated using gradient corrected density functional theory. In the study of matrix effects, Mg+ and Mg+2 are embedded in matrices with up to 10 neon or argon atoms. For the magnesium ion, we calculate a shift in the isotropic hyperfine coupling constant of 10 G when changing the matrix from Ne to Ar (expt. value: 10.9 G), and for Mg+2 the calculated shift is −0.5 G (expt. value=1.1 G). In the second part of the paper, several different positively charged magnesium clusters with up to six magnesium atoms are optimized, and the resulting geometries, relative energies, and hyperfine coupling constants are compared with experimental data and with previous theoretical studies. Based on the computed averaged hyperfine coupling constants, a reassignment is proposed of the experimentally observed average values (in gauss), −222.5 (Mg+), −105.4 (Mg+2), −69.5 (linear Mg+3), −55.0 (triangular Mg+3), −48.5 (Mg+4), and −34.6 (Mg+5). The corresponding calculated values are −211.6, −100.0, −65.2, −58.7, −48.3, and −33.3 G, respectively. For the hexamer ion, we predict an average hfcc of −28.5 G. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The thermal motion of the CCH radical embedded in a matrix of solid argon is simulated at 4 and 40 K, using a hybrid density functional theory—molecular dynamics (DFT-MD) approach. The DFT calculations are performed at the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) level. It is concluded that the CCH molecule when embedded in the Ar matrix favors an oscillating, slightly bent geometric struct- ure, whereas in vacuum the molecule is linear. In the matrix at 4 K, the oscillations lie centered at a CCH bond angle of 170±5°. At 40 K far larger oscillations are noted (up to ±19° bending motion, centered at a 154° CCH angle), due to the increased thermal energy. As a consequence of the vibrational motion, the radical hyperfine structure becomes significantly modified, and agree far better with experimental data than do the linear optimized vacuum geometry results. The B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) computed vibrationally averaged isotropic couplings in an ordered Ar matrix at 4 K are 935, 173 and 42 MHz for C–C–H, respectively, to be compared with the experimental values (Ar matrix, 4 K) 902, 156 and 44 MHz, and the data for the B3LYP/6-311G(d,p) optimized linear structure in vacuum: 1043, 224 and 54 MHz. The present hybrid DFT-MD results also agree well with previous vibronically corrected MRDCI data. © 1996 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: The hyperfine structure of the 14NH2 radical is investigated by means of multireference single and double configuration interaction (MRCI) techniques. Particular attention is paid to the dependence of the coupling constants on the basis set, reference space, and configuration selection energy threshold. It is found that convergence can be obtained only if more than 83 reference configurations are included with an energy threshold of at least 10−7 hartree. With up to 126 reference configurations, an energy threshold smaller than 10−8 hartree and an uncontracted (13s8p2d/8s2p) basis set, the MRCI isotropic couplings (27.44 and −68.47 MHz for N and H, respectively) are in very good agreement with experimental data (27.9 and −67.2 MHz, respectively). © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Density functional theory with gradient corrections (DFTG) is applied to a series of second-row transition metal compounds. The mean absolute deviations from experiment for the atomic excitation energies and ionization potential are in the range 0.2–0.4 eV. In comparison with accurate multireference configuration interaction (MR-CI) and parametrized CI with parameter 80 (PCI-80) results for the binding energies of the MCH+2 cations, the mean absolute deviation is 6.7 kcal/mol to be compared with 17.8 kcal/mol at the modified coupled pair functional (MCPF) level. The DFTG result is more sensitive to the choice of asymptote with a mean deviation of 14 kcal/mol if the bonding atomic state is not used as asymptote. Product energies and transition states for the addition of methane to RhXL (X=H, Cl, L=H2O, NH3, PH3, and CO) also show the same trends as the PCI-80 comparison and represent an improvement over the MCPF results. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Summary. Serum profiles of growth hormone (GW) were recorded for 24 h in women at different stages of normal pregnancy. Two monoclonal antibodies directcd against different epitopes and unaffected by human placental lactogen were used in radioimmunoassays to distinguish the pituitary 22K-GH from the placental GH variant. The ‘normal’ episodic peak activity of GH in non-pregnant and first trimester pregnant women was dramatically changed into a continuous very stable secretion during late pregnancy. This change was first observed at 17 weeks gestation. It is concluded that during the second half of pregnancy, serum measurements of GH reflect a major contribution from a non-cpisodically secreted placental GH variant and a concomitant suppression of pituitary GH. This specific signal, i.e. a continuous GH secretion, may be an important regulator of maternal liver metabolism during pregnancy.

    Notes: The hyperfine (hf) structures of radical cations are calculated using first principles density functional theory. Within the local spin density (LSD) approximation, the isotropic hyperfine coupling constants (Fermi contact terms) are computed for a set of linear (nonbranched) alkane and alkene radical cations with up to four carbon atoms. The results are as a whole in very good agreement with experimental data, obtained from low temperature matrix isolation electron-spin resonance (ESR) measurements, and with results from previous configuration interaction calculations.

    Notes: The thermal motion of CD+4 in the gas phase at 4 and 40 K is studied by means of a molecular dynamics method using the MP2/6-31G(d,p) force field. The thermal motion of CD+4 in the temperature range from 4 to 40 K does not involve a deuterium permutation on the picosecond time scale. The electronic energy fluctuations of CD+4 due to thermal motion are less than 0.7 kcal/mol at 4 K and 1.6 kcal/mol at 40 K, which is less than the energy barrier (3.4 kcal/mol at MP2 level) required for the permutation between two energy minimum C2v structures. On the basis of these calculations it is suggested that the observation of four equivalent hydrogen atoms in the ESR spectrum of CH+4 can be attributed to fast quantum tunneling, with an estimated rate of 4.3×106 s−1 for CH+4 and 1.6×103 s−1 for CD+4. © 1995 American Institute of Physics.
