Magnetoelastic polarons in the hole-doped quasi-one dimensional model system Y2-xCaxBaNiO5
October 4th, 2004Charge transport in the hole-doped quasi-1D model system YCaBaNiO (x 0.15) is investigated in the 50-300 K temperature range. The resistivity temperature dependence is characterized by a constant activation energy 1830 K at room temperature while decreases upon cooling. We suggest that measures the binding energy of the doped holes which form magneto-acoustic polarons when polarizing the neighboring Ni spins. A semi-classical model is proposed which allows to relate the electrical measurements and the bulk magnetic susceptibility. This model gives a picture of the spin-charge-lattice relation in this inhomogeneously doped quasi-1D system and explains its unusual one-particle charge excitation spectrum close to the Fermi level
The future of Arctic sea-ice biogeochemistry and ice-associated ecosystems
The Arctic sea-ice-scape is rapidly transforming. Increasing light penetration will initiate earlier seasonal primary production. This earlier growing season may be accompanied by an increase in ice algae and phytoplankton biomass, augmenting the emission of dimethylsulfide and capture of carbon dioxide. Secondary production may also increase on the shelves, although the loss of sea ice exacerbates the demise of sea-ice fauna, endemic fish and megafauna. Sea-ice loss may also deliver more methane to the atmosphere, but warmer ice may release fewer halogens, resulting in fewer ozone depletion events. The net changes in carbon drawdown are still highly uncertain. Despite large uncertainties in these assessments, we expect disruptive changes that warrant intensified long-term observations and modelling efforts
