During delignification, there is also a corresponding reduction in pulp viscosity.... If pulp viscosity is allowed to fall below a critical level, the pulp strength drops dramatically. Maintenance of pulp viscosity is the principal reason that the kraft cook must be terminated at a point where a substantial level of residual lignin remains with the fibers. A derivation termed the G-factor(exactly analogous to the H-factor) can be applied for viscosity reduction, i. e., combinations of time and temperature that give the same G-factor can be expected to produce pulp with the same viscosity. Since the G-factor increases more rapidly with temperature than the H-factor, it follows that higher cooking temperatures have a proportionally greater effect on viscosity reduction. 1, record 17, English, - G%2Dfactor

A situation in which neither side could logically see any gain in attacking the other. Stability in this context has three dimensions : first, that it is unlikely that the balance could be altered to the point that one side believed a deliberate attack would be profitable; second, that massive nuclear exchange would not develop as a result of hasty, ill-founded or desperate decisions during a crisis; and third, that the maintenance of mutual deterrence does not require a competitive resource-consuming arms race. 2, record 18, English, - stable%20mutual%20deterrence

Situation dans laquelle aucune des deux puissances en cause n'a rien à gagner en attaquant l'autre. La stabilité qui résulte de cette situation comporte trois conditions : en premier lieu, il faut que l'équilibre ne puisse être modifié de telle façon qu'une des puissances devienne convaincue qu'une attaque nucléaire préméditée pourrait lui être profitable; en second lieu, il doit n'exister aucun risque qu'en temps de crise internationale une guerre nucléaire massive puisse être déclenchée à la suite d'une décision précipitée, irréfléchie ou désespérée; enfin, le maintien de l'équilibre ne doit pas entraîner une course aux armements dont le coût serait mutuellement épuisant.

[In a restricted marine environment] If the climate is arid, evaporation exceeds inflow, and the water becomes hypersaline.... Under conditions of aridity, the restricted sea has adjacent lands with little or no stream action other than torrential episodes which may occasionally wash in detrital material. The sea may attain high temperatures, with excessive evaporation, and development of salinity greater than that of the open sea. Excessive evaporation produces a lowering of water level, and induces a permanent inflowing current of normal sea water across, or through, the restricting barriers.... If it were not for the continued inflow current, the history of restricted seas in arid climates would be short. The water would completely evaporate, leaving behind a relatively thin coating of saline residue. Maintenance of inflow from the open sea provides a continuous supply of dissolved salts, and a balance is reached between evaporation and inflow for given conditions. Inevitably, the concentration of salts within the restricted area is increased and may reach the saturation point for some. 2, record 21, English, - restricted%20arid%20environment

[L']environnement restreint aride [est un des milieux marins de la sédimentation chimique.] Dans cet environnement l'évaporation locale excède l'apport d'eau par les fleuves; exemples: Mer Rouge, Méditerranée, Kara Boughaz (dans la Caspienne). Dans ces conditions la densité des eaux de surface détermine les courants de convection. Si le seuil qui restreint le milieu est suffisamment bas, les eaux denses s'écoulent vers le large tandis que l'eau marine moins dense pénètre en surface dans le bassin: c'est le cas en Méditerranée et en Mer Rouge. Si le seuil est élevé, à faible profondeur sous la surface, il y a peu d'écoulement des eaux denses et salines vers le large, et la salinité s'accroît; c'est le cas dans le golfe de Kara Boughaz (salinité: 165 %). Dans ce milieu la surface Eh=O coïncide avec l'interface de dépôt. Cet environnement est, typiquement, celui du dépôt des «évaporites» ou dépôts salins, «stratifiés» : gypse anhydrite, halite (sel gemme), dolomite «primaire» ou syngénétique (avec éventuellement calcite), polyhalite, sylvite, etc. 1, record 21, French, - environnement%20restreint%20aride
