Both SECs involve diffusion as approach for hillslope processes and the stream power law to reflect riverbed incision. The 1D SEC settles sediment that was produced by fluvial incision in the appropriate minimum, while the supply-limited 2D SEC DANSER uses a fast filling algorithm to model sedimantation. It is based on a cellular automaton. A slope-dependent factor in the sediment flux extends the diffusion equation to nonlinear diffusion. The discharge accumulation is achieved with the D8-algorithm and an improved drainage accumulation routine. Lateral incision enhances the incision's modelling. Following empirical laws, it incises channels of several cells width. The coupling method enables different temporal and spatial resolutions of the SEC and the thermo-mechanical code. It transfers vertical as well as horizontal displacements to the surface model. A weighted smoothing of the 3D surface displacements is implemented. The smoothed displacement vectors transmit the deformation by bilinear interpolation to the surface model. These interpolation methods ensure mass conservation in both directions and prevent the two surfaces from drifting apart. The presented applications refer to the evolution of the Pamir orogen. A calibration of DANSER's parameters with geomorphological data and a DEM as initial topography highlights the advantage of lateral incision. Preserving the channel width and reflecting incision peaks in narrow channels, this closes the huge gap between current orogen-scale incision models and observed topographies. River capturing models in a system of fault-bounded block rotations reaffirm the importance of the lateral incision routine for capturing events with channel initiation. The models show a low probability of river capturings with large deflection angles. While the probability of river capturing is directly depending on the uplift rate, the erodibility inside of a dip-slip fault speeds up headward erosion along the fault: The model's capturing speed increases within a fault. Coupling DANSER with the thermo-mechanical code SLIM 3D emphasizes the versatility of the SEC. While DANSER has minor influence on the lithospheric evolution of an indenter model, the brittle surface deformation is strongly affected by its sedimentation, widening a basin in between two forming orogens and also the southern part of the southern orogen to south, east and west. N2 - Im Rahmen dieser Studie werden 1D und 2D Erosionsmodelle im Gebirgsmaßstab implementiert und mit Modellen für tektonische Deformation gekoppelt. Die Kopplungsmethode erlaubt unterschiedlich räumliche und zeitliche Auflösungen im tektonischen und im Erosionsmodell. Es werden sowohl vertikale als auch horizontale Bewegungen zwischen den Modellen transferiert. Darüber hinaus enthält die Kopplungsmethode ein Glättungsverfahren, um eventuelle Instabilitäten des tektonischen Modelles zu kompensieren. Beide Erosionsmodelle beziehen Hangerosion, Flusseinschneidung und Sedimentation ein. Der 1D Code nutzt Hack's Law, um die Wassermengen zu berechnen. Er garantiert Massenerhaltung, indem er Sedimente in Senken speichert. Das 2D Erosionsmodell DANSER basiert auf einem zellulären Automaten. Ein zusätzlicher steigungsabhängiger Faktor erweitert lineare zu nichtlinearer Diffusion. Wassermengen werden mit Hilfe des D8-Algorithmus und einer veränderten Form von O'Callaghans (1984) Algorithmus akkumuliert. Laterale Einschneidung, berechnet durch einen neuen Verteilungs-Algorithmus, verbessert die Modellierung von Flusssystemen. Flüsse sind dabei repräsentiert durch eine unterschiedliche Anzahl an Zellen orthogonal zur Fließrichtung. Ihre Breite wird nach empirischen Gesetzen ermittelt. Die präsentierten Anwendungen dienen der Studie des Pamirgebirges. Zunächst werden die Modellparameter anhand von Einschneidungs- und Erosionsraten sowie Sedimentdurchflüssen kalibriert. Ein digitales Höhenmodell dient als Anfangstopographie und zur Extraktion von Flussprofilen. Laterale Einschneidung zeigt eine deutliche Verbesserung zu bisher vorhandenen Modellen. Sie ermöglicht die Erhaltung der Flussbreite und zeigt hohe Einschneidungsraten in engen Flusspassagen. Modelle von Flussanzapfungen in einem System paralleler Verwerfungen bestätigen die Wichtigkeit von lateraler Einschneidung für Flussanzapfungsmodelle, die Hangerosion einbeziehen. Während die Modelle eine geringe Wahrscheinlichkeit von Flussanzapfungen mit hohem Ablenkungswinkel zeigen, belegen sie auch, dass deren (allgemeine) Wahrscheinlichkeit direkt von der Hebungsrate der Verwerfungen abhängt. Die Erodibilität beschleunigt lediglich die Geschwindigkeit von Flussanzapfungen. Ein Modell, das die Codes SLIM 3D und DANSER koppelt, dokumentiert die vielseitige Verwendbarkeit des neuen Codes: Es zeigt einen geringen Einfluss von Oberflächenprozessen auf die Lithosphärendeformation, während die Sedimentationsroutine erheblich auf spröde Oberflächendeformationen einwirkt. Das Modell legt nahe, dass Sedimentation ein zwischen zwei entstehenden Gebirgen gelegenes Becken weitet. Außerdem weitet sich der südlich von der interkontinentalen Kollisionszone gelegene Teil des Gebirge-Models ebenfalls durch Sedimentation.

I demonstrate how light-sensitive motion can be induced at the micrometer scale by a simple addition of a photosensitive surfactant, which makes it possible to trigger hydrophobicity with light. With point-like laser irradiation, radial inward and outward hydrodynamic surface flows are remotely switched on and off. In this way, ensembles of microparticles can be moved toward or away from the irradiation center. Particle motion is analyzed according to varying parameters, such as surfactant and salt concentration, illumination condition, surface hydrophobicity, and surface structure. The physical origin of this process is the so-called light-driven diffusioosmosis (LDDO), a phenomenon that was discovered in the framework of this thesis and is described experimentally and theoretically in this work. To give a brief explanation, a focused light irradiation induces a local photoisomerization that creates a concentration gradient at the solid-liquid interface. To compensate for the change in osmotic pressure near the surface, a hydrodynamic flow along the surface is generated. Surface-surfactant interaction largely governs LDDO. It is shown that surfactant adsorption depends on the isomerization state of the surfactant. Photoisomerization, therefore, triggers a surfactant attachment or detachment from the surface. This change is considered to be one of the reasons for the formation of LDDO flow. These flows are introduced not only by a focused laser source but also by global irradiation. Porous particles show reversible repulsive and attractive interactions when dispersed in the solution of photosensitive surfactant. Repulsion and attraction is controlled by the irradiation wavelength. Illumination with red light leads to formation of aggregates, while illumination with blue light leads to the formation of a well-separated grid with equal interparticle distances, between 2µm and 80µm, depending on the particle surface density. These long-range interactions are considered to be a result of an increase or decrease of surfactant concentration around each particle, depending on the irradiation wavelength. Surfactant molecules adsorb inside the pores of the particles. A light-induced photoisomerization changes adsorption to the pores and drives surfactant molecules to the outside. The concentration gradients generate symmetric flows around each single particle resulting in local LDDO. With a break of the symmetry (i.e., by closing one side of the particle with a metal cap), one can achieve active self-propelled particle motion. N2 - Mit Aufkommen der Mikrofluidik entstand eine größere Nachfrage nach präziser und berührungsfreier Manipulation von mikrometergroßen Objekten. In dieser Arbeit wird gezeigt, wie Bewegung im Mikrometerbereich durch ein lichtschaltbares Tensid erzeugt werden kann, deren Hydrophobizität sich durch Beleuchtung ändert. Eine fokussierte punktförmige Laserbestrahlung erzeugt einen radial nach außen oder innen gerichteten Fluss an der Substratoberfläche je nach Laserwellenlänge. Mikropartikel die sich auf der Oberfläche befinden, bewegen sich dadurch passiv mit dem Fluss entweder zum Bestrahlungspunkt hin oder vom Bestrahlungspunkt weg. Die Partikelbewegung wird in Abhängigkeit von den folgenden Parametern untersucht: Tensid- und Salzkonzentration, Bestrahlungsbedingungen, Hydrophobizität der Oberfläche und Oberflächenstruktur. Der Grund für die Bewegung kann in einem Prozess gefunden werden, der sogenannten lichtgetriebenen Diffusioosmose (LDDO), die im Rahmen dieser Dissertation entdeckt und theoretisch sowie experimentell beschrieben wurde. Der Prozess kann wie folgt betrachtet werden: Die fokussierte Bestrahlung induziert eine lokale Photo-Isomerisation der Tensidmoleküle, die eine Monomer-Konzentrationsänderung zur Folge hat. Lokal entsteht ein hierdurch ein höherer osmotischer Druck an der Oberfläche. Um den Druckunterschied an der Oberfläche auszugleichen, wird ein hydrodynamischer Fluss nahe der Oberfläche erzeugt. Hierbei bestimmt vor allem die Wechselwirkung zwischen Tensid und Oberfläche den induzierten Fluss. Es wird gezeigt, dass die Oberflächenadsorption des Tensids vom Isomerisationszustand abhängt. Somit kann eine Bestrahlung ein Ablösen von oder Anhaften an der Oberfläche erzeugen. Diese Änderung der Oberflächenkonzentration kann als einer der Gründe für die Flussentstehung angesehen werden. Diese hydrodynamischen Oberflächenflüssen können nicht nur durch einen fokussierten Laser erzeugt werden, sondern auch durch eine gesamte Bestrahlung der Oberfläche. Hierbei zeigen poröse Partikel eine reversible Anziehung und Abstoßung, wenn sie sich in einer Tensidlösung und an einer Substratoberfläche befinden. Die Wechselwirkung kann hierbei durch die Bestrahlungswellenlänge kontrolliert werden. In Dunkelheit oder in rotem Licht ziehen sich die Partikel gegenseitig an, währenddessen sie sich unter blauer Bestrahlung abstoßen und ein Partikelnetz erzeugen mit äquidistanten Abständen zwischen den Partikeln. Die Partikelabstände hängen von der Partikeldichte an der Oberfläche ab und variieren zwischen 2µm und 80µm. Der Grund für die reversible Anziehung und Abstoßung wird ähnlich zu LDDO in einer lichtinduzierten Konzentrationsänderung gesehen. Tensidmoleküle adsorbieren innerhalb der Poren der Partikel. Durch eine lichtinduzierte Isomerisation werden die Moleküle ausgestoßen. Hierbei entsteht die Konzentrationsänderung um jedes poröse Partikel herum, währenddessen sie in LDDO um den Laserpunkt entsteht. Somit werden diffusioosmotische Flüsse symmetrisch um jedes Partikel erzeugt, wohingegen sie in LDDO nur um den Laserpunkt erzeugt werden.Demzufolge stoßen sich die Partikel durch eine hydrodynamische Wechselwirkung ab. Es wird gezeigt, dass aufgrund eines Symmetriebruchs durch ein Abdecken einer Partikelhälfte eine aktive selbstgetriebene Partikelbewegung erzeugt werden kann.

Here, we present the first field deployment of an iGrav superconducting gravimeter (SG) in a minimized enclosure for long-term integrative monitoring of water storage changes. Results of the field SG on a grassland site under wet-temperate climate conditions were compared to data provided by a nearby SG located in the controlled environment of an observatory building. The field system proves to provide gravity time series that are similarly precise as those of the observatory SG. At the same time, the field SG is more sensitive to hydrological variations than the observatory SG. We demonstrate that the gravity variations observed by the field setup are almost independent of the depth below the terrain surface where water storage changes occur (contrary to SGs in buildings), and thus the field SG system directly observes the total water storage change, i.e., the water balance, in its surroundings in an integrative way. We provide a framework to single out the water balance components actual evapotranspiration and lateral subsurface discharge from the gravity time series on annual to daily timescales. With about 99 and 85% of the gravity signal due to local water storage changes originating within a radius of 4000 and 200m around the instrument, respectively, this setup paves the road towards gravimetry as a continuous hydrological field-monitoring technique at the landscape scale.

BT - Implications from a study of a 10-year-old soil–plant system T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - The significance of biogenic silicon (BSi) pools as a key factor for the control of Si fluxes from terrestrial to aquatic ecosystems has been recognized for decades. However, while most research has been focused on phytogenic Si pools, knowledge of other BSi pools is still limited. We hypothesized that different BSi pools influence short-term changes in the water-soluble Si fraction in soils to different extents. To test our hypothesis we took plant (Calamagrostis epigejos, Phragmites australis) and soil samples in an artificial catchment in a post-mining landscape in the state of Brandenburg, Germany. We quantified phytogenic (phytoliths), protistic (diatom frustules and testate amoeba shells) and zoogenic (sponge spicules) Si pools as well as Tironextractable and water-soluble Si fractions in soils at the beginning (t(0)) and after 10 years (t(10)) of ecosystem development. As expected the results of Tiron extraction showed that there are no consistent changes in the amorphous Si pool at Chicken Creek (Huhnerwasser) as early as after 10 years. In contrast to t(0) we found increased water-soluble Si and BSi pools at t(10); thus we concluded that BSi pools are the main driver of short-term changes in water-soluble Si. However, because total BSi represents only small proportions of water-soluble Si at t(0) (< 2 %) and t(10) (2.8-4.3 %) we further concluded that smaller (< 5 mu m) and/or fragile phytogenic Si structures have the biggest impact on short-term changes in water-soluble Si. In this context, extracted phytoliths (> 5 mu m) only amounted to about 16% of total Si con-tents of plant materials of C. epigejos and P. australis at t(10); thus about 84% of small-scale and/or fragile phytogenic Si is not quantified by the used phytolith extraction method. Analyses of small-scale and fragile phytogenic Si structures are urgently needed in future work as they seem to represent the biggest and most reactive Si pool in soils. Thus they are the most important drivers of Si cycling in terrestrial biogeosystems.

Dietmar T1 - Global patterns in Earth’s dynamic topography since the Jurassic BT - the role of subducted slabs T2 - Postprints der Universität Potsdam : Mathematisch Naturwissenschaftliche Reihe N2 - We evaluate the spatial and temporal evolution of Earth's long-wavelength surface dynamic topography since the Jurassic using a series of high-resolution global mantle convection models. These models are Earth-like in terms of convective vigour, thermal structure, surface heat-flux and the geographic distribution of heterogeneity. The models generate a degree-2-dominated spectrum of dynamic topography with negative amplitudes above subducted slabs (i.e. circum-Pacific regions and southern Eurasia) and positive amplitudes elsewhere (i.e. Africa, north-western Eurasia and the central Pacific). Model predictions are compared with published observations and subsidence patterns from well data, both globally and for the Australian and southern African regions. We find that our models reproduce the long-wavelength component of these observations, although observed smaller-scale variations are not reproduced. We subsequently define "geodynamic rules" for how different surface tectonic settings are affected by mantle processes: (i) locations in the vicinity of a subduction zone show large negative dynamic topography amplitudes; (ii) regions far away from convergent margins feature long-term positive dynamic topography; and (iii) rapid variations in dynamic support occur along the margins of overriding plates (e.g. the western US) and at points located on a plate that rapidly approaches a subduction zone (e.g. India and the Arabia Peninsula). Our models provide a predictive quantitative framework linking mantle convection with plate tectonics and sedimentary basin evolution, thus improving our understanding of how subduction and mantle convection affect the spatio-temporal evolution of basin architecture.

The strength and mechanism of adsorption depend on the pore architecture of the NCMs. In addition, chemical functionalization can be used to induce changes of electron density and/or electron density distribution in the pore walls, thus further modifying the interactions between carbons and guest species. Typical approaches for functionalization of nanoporous materials with regular atomic construction like porous silica, metal-organic frameworks, or zeolites, cannot be applied to NCMs due to their less defined local atomic construction and abundant defects. Therefore, synthetic strategies that offer a higher degree of control over the process of functionalization are needed. Synthetic approaches for covalent functionalization of NCMs, that is, for the incorporation of heteroatoms into the carbon backbone, are critically reviewed with a special focus on strategies following the concept "from molecules to materials." Approaches for coordinative functionalization with metallic species, and the functionalization by nanocomposite formation between pristine carbon materials and heteroatom-containing carbons, are introduced as well. Particular focus is given to the influences of these functionalizations in adsorption-related applications.

In Photoelektronenspektren zeigen diese Filme charakteristische diskrete Energieniveaus, und es hat sich herausgestellt, dass sie zu großen, technisch nutzbaren Effekten führen können, wie der oszillatorischen magnetischen Kopplung in modernen Festplatten-Leseköpfen. In dieser Arbeit wird untersucht, inwieweit die der Quantisierung in zweidimensionalen Filmen zu Grunde liegenden Konzepte auf niedrigere Dimensionalität übertragbar sind. Das bedeutet, dass schrittweise von zweidimensionalen Filmen auf eindimensionale Nanostrukturen übergegangen wird. Diese Nanostrukturen sind zum einen die Terrassen auf atomar gestuften Oberflächen, aber auch Atomketten, die auf diese Terrassen aufgebracht werden, bis hin zu einer vollständigen Bedeckung mit atomar dünnen Nanostreifen. Daneben werden Selbstorganisationseffekte ausgenutzt, um zu perfekt eindimensionalen Atomanordnungen auf Oberflächen zu gelangen. Die winkelaufgelöste Photoemission ist als Untersuchungsmethode deshalb so geeignet, weil sie das Verhalten der Elektronen in diesen Nanostrukturen in Abhängigkeit von der Raumrichtung zeigt, und unterscheidet sich darin beispielsweise von der Rastertunnelmikroskopie. Damit ist es möglich, deutliche und manchmal überraschend große Effekte der eindimensionalen Quantisierung bei verschiedenen exemplarischen Systemen zum Teil erstmals nachzuweisen. Die für zweidimensionale Filme wesentliche Rolle von Bandlücken im Substrat wird für Nanostrukturen bestätigt. Hinzu kommt jedoch eine bei zweidimensionalen Filmen nicht vorhandene Ambivalenz zwischen räumlicher Einschränkung der Elektronen in den Nanostrukturen und dem Effekt eines Übergitters aus Nanostrukturen sowie zwischen Effekten des Elektronenverhaltens in der Probe und solchen des Messprozesses. Letztere sind sehr groß und können die Photoemissionsspektren dominieren. Abschließend wird der Effekt der verminderten Dimensionalität speziell für die d-Elektronen von Mangan untersucht, die zusätzlich starken Wechselwirkungseffekten unterliegen. Auch hierbei treten überraschende Ergebnisse zu Tage. N2 - It has been known for several years that under certain conditions electrons can be confined within thin layers even if these layers consist of metal and are supported by a metal substrate. In photoelectron spectra, these layers show characteristic discrete energy levels and it has turned out that these lead to large effects like the oscillatory magnetic coupling technically exploited in modern hard disk reading heads. The current work asks in how far the concepts underlying quantization in two-dimensional films can be transferred to lower dimensionality. This problem is approached by a stepwise transition from two-dimensional layers to one-dimensional nanostructures. On the one hand, these nanostructures are represented by terraces on atomically stepped surfaces, on the other hand by atom chains which are deposited onto these terraces up to complete coverage by atomically thin nanostripes. Furthermore, self organization effects are used in order to arrive at perfectly one-dimensional atomic arrangements at surfaces. Angle-resolved photoemission is particularly suited as method of investigation because is reveals the behavior of the electrons in these nanostructures in dependence of the spacial direction which distinguishes it from, e. g., scanning tunneling microscopy. With this method intense and at times surprisingly large effects of one-dimensional quantization are observed for various exemplary systems, partly for the first time. The essential role of bandgaps in the substrate known from two-dimensional systems is confirmed for nanostructures. In addition, we reveal an ambiguity without precedent in two-dimensional layers between spacial confinement of electrons on the one side and superlattice effects on the other side as well as between effects caused by the sample and by the measurement process. The latter effects are huge and can dominate the photoelectron spectra. Finally, the effects of reduced dimensionality are studied in particular for the d electrons of manganese which are additionally affected by strong correlation effects. Surprising results are also obtained here. ---------------------------- Die Links zur jeweiligen Source der im Appendix beigefügten Veröffentlichungen befinden sich auf Seite 83 des Volltextes.

In view of the potential implications for coastal populations and ecosystems worldwide, we investigate, from an ice-dynamic perspective, the possibility of delaying sea-level rise by pumping ocean water onto the surface of the Antarctic ice sheet. We find that due to wave propagation ice is discharged much faster back into the ocean than would be expected from a pure advection with surface velocities. The delay time depends strongly on the distance from the coastline at which the additional mass is placed and less strongly on the rate of sea-level rise that is mitigated. A millennium-scale storage of at least 80% of the additional ice requires placing it at a distance of at least 700 km from the coastline. The pumping energy required to elevate the potential energy of ocean water to mitigate the currently observed 3 mmyr(-1) will exceed 7% of the current global primary energy supply. At the same time, the approach offers a comprehensive protection for entire coastlines particularly including regions that cannot be protected by dikes.

Spektrale Energiedichten und Kohärenzfunktionen werden hergeleitet und liefern eine umfassende Charakterisierung des Felds auf der sub-Wellenlängen-Skala. Die Ergebnisse finden auf zwei Teilgebieten Anwendung: in der integrierten Atomoptik, wo ultrakalte Atome an thermische Oberflächen koppeln, und in der Nahfeldoptik, wo eine Auflösung unterhalb der Beugungsbegrenzung mit einzelnen Molekülen als Sonden und Detektoren erzielt werden kann. N2 - We theoretically discuss the interaction of neutral particles (atoms, molecules) with surfaces in the regime where it is mediated by the electromagnetic field. A thorough characterization of the field at sub-wavelength distances is worked out, including energy density spectra and coherence functions. The results are applied to typical situations in integrated atom optics, where ultracold atoms are coupled to a thermal surface, and to single molecule probes in near field optics, where sub-wavelength resolution can be achieved.

This technique offers insight into the electronic structure of the system as well as useful structural information. In this work, we apply NEXAFS to two kinds of imidazolium based ionic liquids ([CnC1im]+[NTf2]- and [C4C1im]+[I]-). A combination of measurements and quantum chemical calculations of C K and N K NEXAFS resonances is presented. The simulations, based on the transition potential density functional theory method (TP-DFT), reproduce all characteristic features observed by the experiment. Furthermore, a detailed assignment of resonance features to excitation centers (carbon or nitrogen atoms) leads to a consistent interpretation of the spectra.
