Existing ice-drilling technologies make it cumbersome to maintain microbiologically clean access for sample acquisition and environmental stewardship of potentially fragile subglacial aquatic ecosystems. The IceMole is a maneuverable subsurface ice probe for clean in situ analysis and sampling of glacial ice and subglacial materials. The design is based on the novel concept of combining melting and mechanical propulsion. It can change melting direction by differential heating of the melting head and optional side-wall heaters. The first two prototypes were successfully tested between 2010 and 2012 on glaciers in Switzerland and Iceland. They demonstrated downward, horizontal and upward melting, as well as curve driving and dirt layer penetration. A more advanced probe is currently under development as part of the Enceladus Explorer (EnEx) project. It offers systems for obstacle avoidance, target detection, and navigation in ice. For the EnEx-IceMole, we will pay particular attention to clean protocols for the sampling of subglacial materials for biogeochemical analysis. We plan to use this probe for clean access into a unique subglacial aquatic environment at Blood Falls, Antarctica, with return of a subglacial brine sample.}, language = {en} } @article{Stulpe2014, author = {Stulpe, Werner}, title = {From the attempt of certain classical reformulations of quantum mechanics to quasi-probability representations}, series = {Journal of Mathematical Physics}, volume = {55}, journal = {Journal of Mathematical Physics}, number = {1}, publisher = {AIP Publishing}, address = {College Park, Md.}, issn = {222-488}, doi = {10.1063/1.4861939}, pages = {Artikel 012109}, year = {2014}, abstract = {The concept of an injective affine embedding of the quantum states into a set of classical states, i.e., into the set of the probability measures on some measurable space, as well as its relation to statistically complete observables is revisited, and its limitation in view of a classical reformulation of the statistical scheme of quantum mechanics is discussed. In particular, on the basis of a theorem concerning a non-denseness property of a set of coexistent effects, it is shown that an injective classical embedding of the quantum states cannot be supplemented by an at least approximate classical description of the quantum mechanical effects.

Therefore, historical water channels in inner-Alpine dry valleys were used as century-long irrigation experiments to investigate adjustments in tree growth to contrasting water supply. This involved quantifying the tree-ring growth of irrigated and non-irrigated (control) Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) in Valais (Switzerland), as well as European larch (Larix decidua Mill.) and black pine (Pinus nigra Arnold) in Vinschgau (Italy). Furthermore, the adjustments in radial growth of Scots pine and European larch to an abrupt stop in irrigation were analyzed. Irrigation promoted the radial growth of all tree species investigated compared to the control: (1) directly through increased soil water availability, and (2) indirectly through increased soil nutrients and humus contents in the irrigated plots. Irrigation led to a full elimination of growth responses to climate for European larch and black pine, but not for Scots pine, which might become more sensitive to drought with increasing tree size in Valais. For the control trees, the response of the latewood increment to water availability in July/August has decreased in recent decades for all species, but increased in May for Scots pine only. The sudden irrigation stop caused a drop in radial growth to a lower level for Scots pine or similar level for larch compared to the control for up to ten years. However, both tree species were then able to adjust to the new conditions and subsequently grew with similar (Scots pine) or even higher growth rates (larch) than the control. To estimate the impact of climate change on future forest development, the duration of manipulation experiments should be on longer time scales in order to capture adjustment processes and feedback mechanisms of forest ecosystems.}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{Bung2014, author = {Bung, Daniel Bernhard}, title = {Observations on non-aerated flow and air entrainment on moderately sloped stepped spillways}, series = {7th Chinese-German Joint Symposium on Hydraulic and Ocean Engineering : 8. - 12.

Sie treten in unmittelbarer N{\"a}he des eigenen Todes auf. Oft, aber nicht immer, handelt es sich dabei um Erfahrungen von Personen, die durch {\"a}rztliche Maßnahmen wiederbelebt wurden und sp{\"a}ter davon berichten (NTE-ler). Jedoch kommen solche Ph{\"a}nomene auch bei Menschen vor, die w{\"a}hrend einer schweren Erkrankung eine lebensbedrohliche Krise haben, hiervon aber spontan genesen. Den NTE {\"a}hnlich sind auch sogenannte Nachtod-erfahrungen sowie spontane Erlebnisse, die im Rahmen anderer außergew{\"o}hnlicher Stresssituationen auftreten. Von Nachtoderfahrungen spricht man, wenn die Betroffenen anl{\"a}sslich des Todes von geliebten Angeh{\"o}rigen oder Freunden Erlebnisse haben, die inhaltlich ebenfalls, zumindest aber teilweise, denen von NTE entsprechen. Nachtoderfahrungen sowie spontane NTE-{\"a}hnliche Erlebnisse unterscheiden sich jedoch von den echten NTE zumeist sowohl quantitativ als auch qualitativ. Unter einem quantitativen Unterschied versteht man in diesem Zusammenhang eine in der Regel geringer ausgepr{\"a}gte Komplexit{\"a}t, als sie sehr vielen NTE zu eigen ist. Da sich aber auch viele NTE selbst bez{\"u}glich ihrer Komplexit{\"a}t unterscheiden, ist der Hauptunterschied qualitativer Natur: Echte NTE besitzen gegen{\"u}ber den anderen hier erw{\"a}hnten Ph{\"a}nomenen eine gr{\"o}ßere inhaltliche und emotionale Tiefe. Sie begleiten die Betroffenen anschließend ein Leben lang - zumeist mit positiven, in Einzelf{\"a}llen aber auch mit negativen Folgen, die bis zu einem sp{\"a}teren Suizid reichen k{\"o}nnen. Die genannten außergew{\"o}hnlichen Bewusstseinsph{\"a}nomene lassen sich in ihrer Gesamtheit bei rund 5 \% der Bev{\"o}lkerung finden. NTE im Speziellen haben hiervon einen durchaus bedeutenden Anteil. Je nach Studie geben zwischen 18 \% und 40 \% aller Personen, die reanimiert wurden, an, w{\"a}hrenddessen eine NTE erlebt zu haben. Dass nicht alle eine solche Erfahrung machen, wird von Kritikern gern dahingehend interpretiert, NTE seien rein physiologischer und keineswegs spiritueller Natur. Jedoch sollte man bedenken, dass im Fall einer rein neurophysiologischen Grundlage von NTE dann bei jedem ein solches Ph{\"a}nomen zu erwarten w{\"a}re, so wie beispielsweise auch die Symptome einer Hypoglyk{\"a}mie im Wesentlichen immer dieselben sind.}, language = {de} }
