Analysis and interpretation of astrophysical optical emission-line spectra / Susan Ilani Loubser

Loubser, Susan Ilani January 2005 (has links)
This study consists of a quantitative optical emission-line analysis of spectra from five blue compact galaxies (Zw 0855, Mrk 1267, II Zw 33, Tol 2 & Tol 3), as well as a qualitative analysis of spectra from two galactic H II regions (NGC 3603 & NGC 3576). It serves a two-fold purpose: first, to understand the CCD reduction, spectra extraction and different nebular analysis methods, together with their applications and limitations, preparatory to studies using the Southern African Large Telescope (SALT) and second, to extend current star formation related research to include extragalactic starburst galaxies. The observations were carried out using the 1.9m telescope (equipped with a grating spectroscope and CCD detector) of the South African Astronomical Observatory (SAAO), during the period 1 to 7 March 2005. The necessary CCD data reduction, spectra extraction, wavelength and flux calibration, Doppler shift as well as reddening correction procedures were performed before the emission lines were identified and measured. A full nebular analysis, including temperature, density, metallicity (oxygen abundance) and other chemical abundance determinations, was performed on the blue compact galaxies (BCGs). Two different nebular analysis packages viz. IRAF's nebular and SNAPwere used, with all the results well within the range of values expected for metal poor BCGs. Recommendations on the different methods and their applications are made. / Thesis (M.Sc. (Physics))--North-West University, Potchefstroom Campus, 2006.

MNMTs são extremamente importantes devido aos serviços ecossistêmicos que provêm, principalmente hidrológicos, e devido a sua alta biodiversidade. Com mudanças climáticas e de uso de terra já acontencendo há urgência em compreender o funcionamento de MNMTs para o desenvolvimento de estratégias de conservação e restauração. O objetivo deste trabalho é analisar e quantificar os efeitos da neblina no microclima e funcionamento foliar de MNMTs. Medimos a ocorrência de neblina, variáveis microclimáticas, parâmetros fotossintéticos e usamos uma nova metodologia para medir a capacidade de absorção foliar de água de cinco espécies abundantes de uma MNMT na região de Campos do Jordão, Brasil. Utilizamos esses dados para estimar os efeitos da neblina na disponibilidade hídrica, na demanda de água da atmosfera, na fotossíntese potencial, na absorção foliar de água e no balanço térmico foliar de MNMTs. A neblina teve um forte efeito no aumento da disponibilidade hídrica do solo e na redução da demanda atmosférica de água. A neblina apresentou um efeito negligível na redução da fotossíntese potencial das espécies estudadas. Nós apresentamos, pela primeira vez, estimativas do efeito da neblina no balanço térmico foliar mostrando que ela possui um importante papel em amenizar as temperaturas foliares médias durante o dia, reduzindo-as em 0.5oC por cada hora de ocorrência de neblina. Nós encontramos que a absorção foliar de água constituí uma fonte importante de água para as espécies estudadas, com a neblina noturna possuindo o potencial de reidratar as folhas de duas das espécies estudadas das suas condições mais secas até hidratação total em mais de 50% das noites. Diferenças na capacidade de absorção foliar de água das espécies estudadas sugere que a absorção foliar é um nicho importante de recursos com o potencial de selecionar características foliares relacionadas à eficiência de absorção foliar de água em espécies de MNMTs / Abstract: Tropical montane cloud forests (TMCFs) are ecosystem with frequent fog immersion influencing almost all aspects of its functioning.TMCFs are extremely important both due to the ecosystem services it provides, particularly hydrologically, and because of its high biodiversity. With climate and land use changes already happening there is urgency on understanding TMCFs functioning to devise conservation and restoration strategies. The objective of this work is to analyze and quantify fog effects on the microclimate and leaf functioning of TMCFs. We measured fog occurrence, microclimatic variables, photosynthetic parameters and used a new methodology to measure foliar water uptake capacity of five abundant TMCFs tree species in the region of Campos do Jordão, Brazil, We used these data to estimate fog effects on water availability, atmospheric water demand, potential photosynthesis, leaf water uptake and leaf thermal balance of TMCF. Fog had a pronounced effect on increasing soil water availability and reducing atmospheric water demand. Fog had a negligible effect on reducing potential photosynthesis of the studied species. We provide for the first time estimates of fog effects on leaf thermal balance showing it has an important effect on buffering mean daytime leaf temperatures by reducing it 0.5oC for each hour of fog occurence. We found that foliar uptake of fog water constitutes an important water source for the studied species, with nocturnal fog having the potential to rehydrate leaves of two of the studied species from its driest conditions to fully rehydration more than 50% of the nights. Differences in foliar water uptake capacity in the studied species suggests leaf water uptake is an important resource niche with potential of selecting leaf water uptake related traits in TMCFs species / Mestrado / Ecologia / Mestre em Ecologia

Vários modelos climáticos preveem secas mais severas para regiões tropicais de altitude em decorrência do aumento na altitude média das camadas de nuvens orográficas que dão origem à neblina, o que poderá afetar a distribuição de espécies e de tipos vegetacionais da Floresta Atlântica nesses locais. Investiguei a diversidade de atributos hidráulicos de seis espécies de Floresta Nebular e quatro espécies de Campos de Altitude com o objetivo de entender as respostas de espécies desse tipo de vegetação a variações sazonais na disponibilidade de água. Optei por investigar atributos hidráulicos pois têm influência direta sobre as estratégias de uso de água pelas plantas em diferentes condições de disponibilidade desse recurso. Escolhi esses ecossistemas por co-ocorrerem em um topo de montanha e por apresentarem condições contrastantes quanto à seca ambiental, com diferentes níveis de exposição do solo às condições climáticas. Quantifiquei densidade da madeira, potenciais hídricos antes do amanhecer, às 10:00 h e mínimo diário e condutância estomática. Investiguei ainda a ocorrência nesses ecossistemas de relações negativas entre densidade da madeira e potenciais hídricos mínimos, já observadas em florestas tropicais secas e ambientes temperados. Verifiquei uma grande diversidade de valores de densidade da madeira nas espécies que estudei. As quatro espécies de Campos de Altitude apresentaram influência da demanda evaporativa da atmosfera sobre seus potenciais hídricos nos meses mais úmidos do estudo, o que é consistente com comportamento anisohídrico. Nesse tipo de estratégia, a condutância estomática se mantém inalterada frente a reduções nas disponibilidades de água do solo e da atmosfera, resultando em redução do potencial hídrico da planta. Nos meses mais secos essa influência foi menor, como se observa em plantas com comportamento isohídrico, que reduzem a condutância estomática e mantêm potenciais hídricos constantes frente ao aumento da seca ambiental. Dentre as espécies de floresta, apenas D. brasiliensis e Vernoniae sp. apresentaram comportamento isohídrico, as demais apresentaram comportamento anisohídrico. Com base nesses resultados faço a previsão que D. brasiliensis e Vernoniae sp. são as espécies mais vulneráveis à seca e podem apresentar maiores taxas de mortalidade por "privação de carbono", em decorrência do seu comportamento isohídrico. Em seguida, as espécies anisohídricas mais vulneráveis à seca são P. vellosiana, L. carassana e Miconia sp., em ordem decrescente de vulnerabilidade à cavitação. As espécies de Campos de Altitude são as mais resistentes à seca. A densidade da madeira só apresentou relação com o potencial hídrico mínimo sazonal quando analisei as espécies de Floresta Nebular e de Campos de Altitude em conjunto, e apresentou uma forte relação linear negativa com o potencial hídrico mínimo diário nas espécies de floresta. Esses resultados indicam que as relações entre esses atributos propostas na literatura parecem estar presentes nos ecossistemas que estudei / Abstract: Water availability is an important feature determining plant species distribution in several communities. Several climatic models predict harsher dry spells for high-altitude tropical regions due to the increase in the mean altitude of formation of the orographic cloud layer that originates fog, which can influence the distribution of species and vegetational types of the Atlantic Forest in these places. I have investigated the diversity of hydraulic traits of six Cloud Forest species and four High-altitude Grasslands species to understand the answers of species of this kind of vegetation to seasonal variations in water availability. I have choosen to investigate hydraulic traits because they have direct influence on the plant water use strategies under different conditions of availability of this resource. I have choosen these ecosystems because they co-occur in a mountain top and present contrasting conditions relative to environmental drought, with different exposure levels of the soil to climatic conditions. I have quantified wood density, pre-dawn, 10:00 o' clock and daily minimun water potentials and stomatal conductance. I have also investigated the occurrence in these ecosystems of negative relationships between wood density and minimun water potentials, that have been observed in tropical dry forests and in temperate environments. I found a very large diversity of wood density values in the species I have studied. The four High-altitude Grasslands species presented influence of atmospheric evaporative demand on their water potentials, consistent with anisohydric behaviour. In this strategy, stomatal conductance remains unaltered in face of reductions in soil and atmosphere water availabilities, resulting in reduction of plant water potential. In the wettest months this influence was smaller, as is seen in plants with isohydric behaviour, that reduce stomatal conductance and maintain constant water potentials in face of environmental drought intensification. Among the forest species, only D. brasiliensis and Vernoniae sp. presented isohydric behaviour, the remaining showing anisohydric behaviour. Based on these results I make the prediction that D. brasiliensis and Vernoniae sp. are the most drought vulnerable species and may present higher mortality rates by carbon starvation, due to their isohydric behaviour. Following these two species, the most drought vulnerable anisohydric species are P. vellosiana, L. carassana and Miconia sp., in decreasing order of vulnerability to cavitation. The High-altitude Grasslands species are the most resistant to drought. There was a correlation between wood density and minimun seasonal water potential only when I analised the Cloud Forest and the High-altitude grasslands species togheter. There was also a strong negative linear relationship between wood density and daily minimun water potential in the forest species. These results show that the relationships between these traits that are proposed in the literature appear to be present in the ecosystems I studied / Mestrado / Ecologia / Mestre em Ecologia

Spektrální diagnostika látky v okolí ranných hvězd / Spectroscopic diagnosis of extended circumstellar regions about early type stars

Dvořáková, Nela January 2019 (has links)
Nela Dvořáková 19.7.2019 1 Abstract We study a representative of a diverse group of stars exhibiting the B[e] phe- nomenon, designated MWC 939. This object might be an important link be- tween the stage of the asymptotic giant branch and planetary nebula stage as it is one of a few such objects observed. Our focus is aimed at spectral analysis of the circumstellar matter around the central star. We assemble a line list for MWC 939 and observe variations of its spectrum. Electron density and temper- ature are estimated using nebular diagnostics of ratios of [S II] λλ 6716, 6731 ˚A and [O I] λλ 6300, 6364 ˚A and 5577 ˚A. These estimates are then used for detailed calculations of the structure of circumstellar envelope. 1
