基于VAP卫星的等离子体层顶电子密度波动统计分析

基于范艾伦辐射带探测卫星的观测数据(2012年9月至2015年11月),收集了584个等离子体层顶密度波动事件,研究了这些事件分布随磁地方时、磁壳值以及地磁活动的变化关系,并使用快速傅里叶变换分析了全部事件平均功率谱.统计结果表明,等离子体层顶密度波动事件主要发生在磁地方时黄昏扇区,其分布与磁地方时和地磁活动具有明显的相关性.等离子体层顶密度波动在1～100mHz区间内具有接近-5/3的功率谱斜率,表明存在二维磁流体动力学湍流.本文统计结果将有助于进一步深入理解等离子体层顶密度波动在内磁层中能量传输的具体作用,并且将促进对等离子体层顶波动的激发、增强与传播过程的进一步研究.     

Effect of Polianthes tuberosa (Amaryllidaceae) on the Reproduction and Biochemical Parameters in the Ovotestis of Snail Lymnaea acuminata (Mollusca,Pulmonata)

The present study elucidates the effect of powder of Polianthes tuberosa bulb and its sapogenins tigogenin and hecogenin on the reproduction of the snail Lymnaea acuminata. It has been reported that the two sapogenins tigogenin and hecogenin caused a significant reduction in fecundity, hatchability, and survival of young snails. Exposure to sublethal concentration caused a small but significant reduction in protein, amino acids, nucleic acids, and phosphatase activities in gonadal tissue of treated snails. Withdrawal after 7 days indicates that the effect of powder of P. tuberosa bulb, tigogenin, and hecogenin on the reproduction and different biochemical parameters is reversible.

为合理开发利用和保护辽宁海岛资源,优化海岛产业结构和布局,以辽宁纳入中国海域海岛标准名录的633个海岛为研究对象,在对其地理坐标、陆域面积等基础数据进行数理统计的基础上,通过GIS的空间分析和绘制洛伦兹曲线、计算基尼系数,对辽宁海岛的空间分布特征进行了分析与研究。结果表明:辽宁海岛属集聚型分布类型,在空间上呈组团与带状分布,按聚集程度来看,形成了黄海北部长山群岛集聚区、辽东半岛南部浅海集聚带与辽东湾西部浅海集聚带三个区域;约60%的海岛处在离大陆岸线直线距离在10 km以内的范围内,近陆程度高;海岛陆域面积分布不均衡,基尼系数达0.9。     

青藏高原东北部多尺度重力场及其地球动力学意义

由于受到SN和EW双向挤压作用的综合影响,处于年轻高原与古老地块交接区的青藏高原东北部岩石圈强烈变形,构造活动十分活跃.为了整体性地了解青藏高原东北部重力场和深部动力学机制,本文基于EGM2008全球重力场模型数据,利用小波多尺度分析获得不同尺度的重力异常信息;同时反演了研究区的地壳厚度;通过构建穿越龙门山造山带和西秦岭造山带两条剖面的岩石圈密度结构模型,分析了地壳上地幔内不同介质的分布特征.研究结果表明,青藏高原东北部岩石圈显示十分复杂的塑性体的特征,其重力异常走向多以EW或SSE为主,反映了高原岩石圈物质向东运移的趋势;地壳厚度由西向东逐渐减薄,边缘造山带深部并没有发现"山根"痕迹,结合该地区低重力的特征,推测西秦岭—松潘构造结岩石圈发生过大规模地幔流底侵作用;地幔流上涌的动力可能来源于印度板块向欧亚大陆板块俯冲,激发了地幔流体侧向移动,在扬子地台和华北地台附近受到坚硬岩石圈的阻挡而被迫上移,并因此造成龙门山与西秦岭的隆升.     

大麻坪橄榄石冲击波实验研究与高压态物态方程参数的确定

利用冲击波进行的动高压实验对研究超高压下的物质性质也是十分有效的.本文报告了对大麻坪采集的橄榄石进行压力在10~45GPa范围的冲击波动高压实验结果.结合前人等温冷压实验结果,确定了实验过程的温度,对于冲击波实验压力从10GPa变化到30GPa时,温度在摄氏几十度到摄氏800多度之间.测量了岩石超高压下密度变化,在3.627~4.009g·cm~(-3)之间.通过回收实验和确定的温度,表明小于30GPa压力实验条件下,没有发生相变过程.同时也确定了状态方程的参数.最后,指出了实验结果在上地幔地球内部物质运动过程的含义,即冷板块中的亚临界橄榄岩可以存在地幔转换带中.     

深内部地球结构对内核平动振荡本征周期的影响

地球固态内核的平动振荡是地球的基本简正模之一,又称Slichter模,其本征周期大约为几个小时,与地球内部结构密切相关.为了研究影响内核平动振荡的本征周期与内部结构的依赖关系,本文利用球对称、非自转、弹性和各向同性地球模型（SNREI）,通过自由振荡运动方程的数值积分,以地球模型PREM为基础,理论上系统研究了地球内部介质（包括密度、地震波速等）分布异常对Slichter模本征周期的影响.数值结果表明,Slichter模周期随着内外核边界（ICB）密度差的增加以类似于双曲线的特征显著减小,当ICB密度差从597 kg·m^-3减小到200 kg·m^-3时,周期增大66.44%,当ICB密度差从597 kg·m^-3增大到1000 kg·m^-3时,周期减小21.48%;Slichter模周期随着核幔边界（CMB）密度差的增大而缓慢增大;相对于PREM,地球模型1066A在ICB和CMB的密度差分别相差45.321%和1.132%,内部地震波速度和密度梯度也存在差异,但是,当密度差减小到1066A模型提供的数值时,得到的Slichter模周期与基于1066A获得的结果（4.599 h）非常接近,差异分别只有3.762%和0.037%;表明Slichter模本征周期与地球内部介质的精细结构关系不大,而对ICB的密度差非常敏感.内、外核P波波速分布异常对Slichter模周期的影响基本相当,当内核和外核P波波速均增加5%时,Slichter周期分别减小1.02%和1.69%,P波波速分别减小5%时,Slichter模周期分别增加1.27%和1.847%,内核S波波速分布异常比P波波速分布异常对Slichter模周期的影响小1个量级;与地核相比,地幔中的地震波速异常对Slichter模本征周期的影响小1~2个量级;表明地核中地震波速异常对Slichter模周期的影响很小,目前有关Slichter模周期理论计算的差异主要来自于所采用的地球模型中内核边界的密度差的差异,本文结果可以为Slichter模的研究、探测及其对地球深内部结构的约束提供理论依据.     

DISCONTINUOUS FLOW OF TURBID DENSITY CURRENTS Ⅱ. INTERNAL HYDRAULIC JUMP

Traveling and stationary internal hydraulic jumps in density currents with positive or negative entrainment coefficients were analyzed based on simple assumptions. An expression of internal hydraulic jumps with entrainment coefficients was derived. Experimental data, published in literature, of stationary internal hydraulic jumps in turbid, thermal and saline density currents including measured values of water entrainment were used to compare with theory. Comparison was also made of traveling internal hydraulic jumps between measured data and theory.     

A Novel Approach of Using Selected Unconventional Geodesic Methods of Estimation on VTS Areas

Abstract

The Vessel Traffic Service (VTS) systems belong to the fundamental tools used in ensuring a high level of safety across sea basins with heavy traffic, where the presence of navigational hazards poses a great risk of collision or a ship running aground. In order to determine the mutual location of ships, VTS systems obtain information from different facilities, such as coastal radar stations, AIS, and vision systems. Fixing a ship’s position is always accompanied by a degree of error, but the degree of error depends on the specific position fixing system used. In order to increase the accuracy of position fixing in VTS systems, the authors propose the use of contemporary geodetic methods. The article presents the theoretical fundamentals of two unconventional geodesic methods of estimation: M estimation and M_split(q)estimation and the authors’ own proposal of their application in VTS systems. The article concludes with a test verifying theoretical assumptions, performed with the use of a computer application allowing position fixing with the use of selected robust adjustment methods. Furthermore, an example is presented of M_split(q)estimation as used for the acquisition of low-signal radar echoes, which in VTS systems are not automatically identified for tracking. The level of the echo signal makes it difficult for a VTS controller to separate these objects from typical radar noise and interference.     

Assessing the Validity of Seismo-Acoustic Predictor Equations for Obtaining Seabed and Sub-Surface Sediment Physical Properties

The interdependence between the seismo-acoustic properties of a marine sediment and its geotechnical/physical parameters has been known for many years, and it has been postulated that this should allow the extraction of geotechnical information from seismic data. Though in the literature many correlations have been published for the surficial layer, there is a lack of information for greater sediment depths. In this article, a desktop study on a synthetic seafloor model illustrates how the application of published near-surface prediction equations to subsurface sediments (up to several tens of meters burial depth) can lead to spurious predictions. To test this further, acoustic and geotechnical properties were measured on a number of sediment core samples, some of which were subjected to loading in acoustically-equipped consolidation cells (oedometers) to simulate greater burial depth conditions. For low effective pressures (representing small burial depths extending to around 10 meters subsurface), the general applicability of established relationships was confirmed: the prediction of porosity, bulk density, and mean grain size from acoustic velocity and impedance appears generally possible for the investigated sedimentary environments. As effective pressure increases through, the observed relationships deviate more and more from the established ones for the near-surface area. For the samples tested in this study, in some instances increasing pressure even resulted in decreasing velocities. There are several possible explanations for this abnormal behavior, including the presence of gas, overconsolidation, or bimodal grain size distribution. The results indicate that an appropriate depth correction must be introduced into the published prediction equations in order to obtain reliable estimates of physical sediment properties for greater subsurface depths.     

利用计算机断层成像方法由观测图像重建等离子体层全球密度分布——投影数据不完备问题

在用计算机断层成像方法由EUV观测图像重建等离子体层全球密度分布时,地球的遮挡和有限角度都会导致投影数据不完备,从而无法精确重建出等离子体层的密度分布.本文针对该问题,提出一种基于图像总变差极小化的代数迭代算法.通过重建等离子体层投影数据缺失最为严重的中心子午面,证明该算法能够显著提高重建图像的质量. 并且在IMAGE卫星仅能达到90°的有限投影角度下,此算法重建图像的相关系数可达0.760,而代数迭代算法的相关系数仅为0.696.
