From theme marker to object marker : the history of Old Japanese O

Cet article fournit des éléments sur le changement fonctionnel subi par la particule о en Vieux Japonais. Dans les poèmes les plus anciens du Man'yooshuu, la particule о fonctionne uniquement comme marqueur de thème, tandis que, dans les poèmes plus récents, elle s'emploie dans la plupart des propositions comme marqueur d'objet puisqu'on peut la trouver dans une proposition avec un agent suivi du marqueur de thème wa. Cet article s'appuie sur les index de Man'yooshuu dans Masamune (1953-1955) et Takeda (1974) et constitue un complément à Modini (CLAO, Vol. XXII, Eté 1993, №1).Modini Paul.

The role of the particle O in old japanese

Cet article s'attache à caractériser le rôle de la particule "o" en japonais ancien (VIIe-VIIIe siècles) en examinant les propositions dans les uta du Man'yooshuu. Le classement des propositions se fait en recourant à deux concepts : dépendance et transitivité. Pour cela nous avons examiné les propositions principales, subordonnées, transitives et intransitives.Modini Paul. The role of the particle O in old japanese.

Black carbon scavenging by low-level Arctic clouds

Abstract Black carbon (BC) from anthropogenic and natural sources has a pronounced climatic effect on the polar environment. The interaction of BC with low-level Arctic clouds, important for understanding BC deposition from the atmosphere, is studied using the first long-term observational data set of equivalent black carbon (eBC) inside and outside of clouds observed at Zeppelin Observatory, Svalbard. We show that the measured cloud residual eBC concentrations have a clear seasonal cycle with a maximum in early spring, due to the Arctic haze phenomenon, followed by cleaner summer months with very low concentrations. The scavenged fraction of eBC was positively correlated with the cloud water content and showed lower scavenged fractions at low temperatures, which may be due to mixed-phase cloud processes. A trajectory analysis revealed potential sources of eBC and the need to ensure that aerosol-cloud measurements are collocated, given the differences in air mass origin of cloudy and non-cloudy periods

The Ny-Ålesund Aerosol Cloud Experiment (NASCENT): Overview and First Results

Abstract The Arctic is warming at more than twice the rate of the global average. This warming is influenced by clouds which modulate the solar and terrestrial radiative fluxes, and thus, determine the surface energy budget. However, the interactions among clouds, aerosols, and radiative fluxes in the Arctic are still poorly understood. To address these uncertainties, the Ny-Ålesund AeroSol Cloud ExperimeNT (NASCENT) study was conducted from September 2019 to August 2020 in Ny-Ålesund Svalbard. The campaign’s primary goal was to elucidate the life cycle of aerosols in the Arctic and to determine how they modulate cloud properties throughout the year. In-situ and remote sensing observations were taken on the ground at sea-level and at a mountaintop station, and with a tethered balloon system. An overview of the meteorological and the main aerosol seasonality encountered during the NASCENT year is introduced, followed by a presentation of first scientific highlights. In particular, we present new findings on aerosol physicochemical properties which also include molecular properties. Further, the role of cloud droplet activation and ice crystal nucleation in the formation and persistence of mixed-phase clouds, and the occurrence of secondary ice processes, are discussed and compared to the representation of cloud processes within the regional Weather Research and Forecasting model. The paper concludes with research questions that are to be addressed in upcoming NASCENT publications
