There are only four lidar stations in the world, which have almost continuously performed observations of the stratospheric aerosol layer (SAL) state for over the last 30 years. The longest time series of the SAL lidar measurements have been accumulated at the Mauna Loa Observatory (Hawaii) since 1973, the NASA Langley Research Center (Hampton, Virginia) since 1974, and Garmisch-Partenkirchen (Germany) since 1976. The fourth lidar station we present started to perform routine observations of the SAL parameters in Tomsk (56.48 N, 85.05 E, Western Siberia, Russia) in 1986. In this 15 paper, we mainly focus on and discuss the stratospheric background period from 2000 to 2005 and the causes of the SAL perturbations over Tomsk in the 2006–2015 period. During the last decade, volcanic aerosol plumes from tropical Mt. Manam, Soufriere Hills, Rabaul, Merapi, Nabro, and Kelut, and extratropical (northern) Mt. -

Zabarinskaya,1 N. I. Filatova,2 V. B. Piip,3 and V. A. Rashidov4 Received 6 March 2008; accepted 20 March 2008; published 24 May 2008. [1] In the frame of the international project “InterMARGINS”, the research in the deep structure of active continental margins of the transition zone from the Eurasian continent to the Pacific was conducted along the deep cross-section of the tectonosphere including the lithosphere and the asthenosphere. The deep section profile runs across the Mesozoic structures of Sikhote Alin, rift structure of Tatar Strait, Cenozoic formations of Sakhalin, Kuril Basin of the Sea of Okhotsk, volcanic structures of Kuril Island Arc, Kuril deep trench and the Mesozoic plate of Northwest Pacific Basin. The length of the profile is 2000 km. The depth of penetration into the earth’s interior is 100 km. A distinctive feature of the transition zone structure is the asthenospheric layer occurrence in the upper mantle; diapirs of hot anomalous mantle branch off from this layer and processes going on in them cause the formation of the region geological structures. A correlation is noted between geological structures, tectonic and magmatic activity and the upper mantle structure. Tectonically active regions like island arcs and rift structures of marginal seas correspond to thick and most distinct asthenosphere generating magma.

Japan-Russia Relations and the Miraculous Revival of Suzuki Muneo

Brown figure in Japanese foreign policy, especially with regard to Russia. Above all, in advance of the Irkutsk summit between President Vladimir Putin and Prime Minister Mori Yoshirō in March 2001, Suzuki, in close cooperation with certain Japanese diplomats, pioneered what they regarded as a more realistic means of resolving the longstanding dispute over the Russian-held Southern Kuril Islands, which are claimed by Japan as the Northern Territories. Suzuki’s strategy entailed discontinuing Japan’s hitherto insistence on Russia’s simultaneous recognition of Japanese sovereignty over all four of the disputed islands.1 Instead, Suzuki promoted a phased approach that would see the transfer of the two smaller islands of Shikotan and Prime Minister Abe Shinzō and Suzuki Habomai, followed by continued negotiations Muneo in September 2016 Nikkan( over the status of the larger islands of Iturup Gendai) and Kunashir, which are known as Etorofu and Kunashiri in Japanese. This initiative proved highly controversial since critics, including within MOFA, feared that it effectively meant At the start of the 2000s, Suzuki Muneo was abandoning Japan’s claim to all four islands. one of the most prominent politicians in Japan. Ultimately, after bitter infighting within Japan’s Elected to the House of Representatives for the foreign-policy elite, the policy was rejected in first time in 1983, Suzuki eventually served favour of a more conventional four-island eight terms. -
Author's Response to the Technical Corrections Suggested by Dr. Fromm
Manuscript Number: acp-2016-792 Manuscript Type: Research article Title: 30-year lidar observations of the stratospheric aerosol layer state over Tomsk (Western Siberia, Russia) Author's response to the technical corrections suggested by Dr. Fromm ***A comment from Referee 1: I would like to see more about the normalization. Is only a single altitude used? Is it 30 km? Many of the Scattering Ratio profiles shown in the paper haven’t decreased to 1.0 at 30 km, so higher altitude data must have been used. Is there an objective way to do this? Our response: The SLS aerosol channel makes it possible to receive almost undisturbed backscattered signals from altitudes of ~40–45 km. At higher altitudes, the signal-to-noise ratio is too low. Therefore, altitudes of ~30–35 km, where the stratosphere is considered to be aerosol-free, were used as the calibration altitudes.*** The comment from Dr. Fromm (concerning our response to the Referee 1 comment): It appears the reviewer was asking for a change to the paper. The authors should indicate if they made any change to the paper. Our response: Answering the Referee 1 comment given above, we did not make any changes in our manuscript. However, we have decided to add some sentences to clarify this point in the text. Instead of “The detected lidar signals were calibrated by normalizing them to the molecular backscatter signal from aerosol-free altitudes above the SAL, i.e. H0 ≥ 30 km (H0 is called the calibration altitude).” We wrote “The SLS aerosol channel makes it possible to receive almost undisturbed backscattered signals from altitudes of ~40– 45 km. -
Volcans Monde SI Dec2010
GEOLOGICAL MAP OF THE WORLD AT 1: 25,000,000 SCALE, THIRD EDITION - Compilator: Philippe Bouysse, 2006 ACTIVE AND RECENT VOLCANOES This list of 1508 volcanoes is taken from data of the Global Volcanism Program run by the Smithsonian Institution (Washington, D.C., USA) and downloaded in April 2006 from the site www.volcano.si.edu/world/summary.cfm?sumpage=num. From the Smithsonian's list, 41 locations have been discarded due to a great deal of uncertainties, particularly as concerns doubtful submarine occurrences (mainly ship reports of the 19th and early 20th centuries). Also have been omitted submarine occurrences from the axes of "normal" oceanic accretionary ridges, i.e. not affected by hotspot activity. NOTES Volcano number: the numbering system was developped by the Catalog of Active Volcanoes of the World in the 1930s and followed on by the Smithsonian Institution, namely in the publication of T. Simkin & L.Siebert: Volcanoes of the World (1994). Name and Geographic situation: some complementary information has been provided concerning a more accurate geographic location of the volcano, e.g. in the case of smaller islands or due to political changes (as for Eritrea). Geographic coordinates: are listed in decimal parts of a degree. The position of volcano no. 104-10 (Tskhouk-Karckar, Armenia) was corrected (Lat. 39°.73 N instead of 35°.73 N). An asterisk (*) in column V.F. indicates the position of the center point of a broad volcanic field. Elevation: in meters, positive or negative for submarine volcanoes. Time frame (column T-FR): this is a Smithsonian' classification for the time of the volcano last known eruption: D1= 1964 or later D2= 1900 – 1963 D3= 1800 – 1899 D4= 1700 – 1799 D5= 1500 – 1699 D6= A.D.1 – 1499 D7= B.C. -
