Honduras) Summary of the Judgment of 8 October 2007 Chronology of the procedure and submissions of the Parties (paras. 1-19) On 8 December 1999 Nicaragua filed an Application instituting proceedings against Honduras in respect of a dispute relating to the delimitation of the maritime areas appertaining to each of those States in the Caribbean Sea. In its Application, Nicaragua sought to found the jurisdiction of the Court on the provisions of Article XXXI of the American Treaty on Pacific Settlement (officially known as the “Pact of Bogotá”), as well as on the declarations accepting the jurisdiction of the Court made by the Parties, as provided for in Article 36, paragraph 2, of the Statute of the Court. Since the Court included upon the Bench no judge of the nationality of either of the Parties, each Party proceeded to exercise its right conferred by Article 31, paragraph 3, of the Statute to choose a judge ad hoc to sit in the case. Nicaragua chose Mr. Giorgio Gaja and Honduras first chose Mr. Julio González Campos, who resigned on 17 August 2006, and subsequently Mr. Santiago Torres Bernárdez. By an Order dated 21 March 2000 the President of the Court fixed 21 March 2001 and 21 March 2002, respectively, as the time-limits for the filing of the Memorial of Nicaragua and the Counter-Memorial of Honduras.

  • Temperature and Height Variability in the Middle and Upper Stratosphere During 1964-1 966 As Determined from Constant Pressure Charts Keith W
    June 1968 Keith W. Johnson and Melvyn E. Gelman 371 TEMPERATURE AND HEIGHT VARIABILITY IN THE MIDDLE AND UPPER STRATOSPHERE DURING 1964-1 966 AS DETERMINED FROM CONSTANT PRESSURE CHARTS KEITH W. JOHNSON and MELVYN E. GELMAN National Meteorological Center, Weather Bureau, ESSA, Hillcrest Heights, Md. ABSTRACT Daily 50- and 10-mb. height and temperature values for 3 yr. (1964-1966) are interpolated for specific locations from objectively analyzed charts. Time sections arc constructed using these values, and the relationship of the time sections to the sequence of synoptic charts is discussed. Values from weekly 5-, and 2, and 0.4-mb. synoptic analyses (1964-65) are used in making vertical comparisons with the 50- and 10-mb. values. Monthly means and standard deviations of daily values from these monthly means are calculated and are com- pared with similar parameters derived directly from data. Comparisons of these statistical parameters are made for three geographical sections: 1) a north-south section near SOOW., 2) an east-west section across North America in middle latitudes, and 3) an east-west section across the Western Hemisphere at high latitudes. Vertical differences in variabil- . ity and standard deviation are discussed. 1. INTRODUCTION 9. DATA AND METHOD Since 1964, daily objective analyses of loo-, 50-, 30-, In a statistical study of variability of meteorological and 10-mb. stratospheric level charts have been produced parameters, one approach is to begin with observed ,values at the National Meteorological Center (NMC).

  • Atmospheric General Circulation and Transport of Radioactive Debris
    Atmospheric General Circulation and Transport of Radioactive Debris By J.D. Mahlman Technical Paper No. 103 Department of Atmospheric Science Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado ATMOSPHERIC GENERAL CIRCULATION AND TRANSPORT OF RADIOACTIVE DEBRIS by J. D. Mahlman Colorado State University This Report was Prepared with Support from Contract AT(l1-1)-1340 with the c' U. S. Atomic Energy Commission, Principal Investigator, Elmar R. Reiter Department of Atmospheric Science Colorado State University Fort Collins, Colorado September 1966 Atmospheric Science Paper No. 103 ABSTRACT In this study an attempt is made to explain the physical bases for seasonal and short-term radioactive fallout variations. Previous investigations have shown that large amounts of contaminated strato­ spheric air enter the troposphere in association with pronounced cyclo­ genesis at jet stream level. The validity of this mechanism is verified by a statistical analysis of fallout changes compared with 300 mb cir­ culation variations over a two-year period. These analyses also demon­ strated that it is not possible to explain the spring fallout peaks on the basis of increased stratospheric-tropospheric mass exchange at that time of the year. It is concluded that the seasonal variation results from characteristics of the stratospheric circulation. As a way of examining the above conclusion, various aspects of the stratospheric transport problem are investigated. Detailed eddy 0 0 0 covariance values at 50 , 60 , and 70 N are computed from 10 January to 20 February 1958 with particular emphasis on the correlation between eddy meridional and vertical wind components. The results indicate that this eddy correlation becomes strongly negative after the polar night vortex breakdown, thus providing a powerful mechanism for northward and downward debris transport in late winter.
