EXPERIMENTAL DESIGN IN CHEMOMETRICS

Chemometrics is defined as the application of mathematical and statistical methods to chemical systems.Systems theory is seen to be useful for organizing and categorizing the inputs to and outputs fromchemical systems.Advances in measurement science in the 1950s and 1960s,particularly in analyticalchemistry,created a need for a multivariate approach to data analysis.Early chemometrics emphasizedthe use of structure-finding methods for existing data sets.In many instances,data sets can be obtainedfrom designed experiments.Such data sets are more likely to contain the desired information and the datacan usually be acquired at less cost.Renewed interest in statistical process control will provide many new,more robust data sets in the future.     

RS AND GIS-BASED FOREST FIRE RISK ZONE MAPPING IN DA HINGGAN MOUNTAINS

1INTRODUCTIONForests are one of the major natural resources that per-form important environmental and recreational func-tions (COSTANZA and GROOT, 1997). It is well known that forests can absorb atmospheric carbon, maintain a certain degree of humidity in atmosphere, regulate rainfall, moderate temperature, and restrain soil erosion, etc. (AURELIA, 2003). So, the health of a forest in any given area is a very important indicator of the ecological conditions. But fire is the great…     

The Effect of Tide on the Global Climate Change

The differential rotation between the solid and fluid spheres caused by tidal force could explain the 1500 to 1800 - year cycle of the worlds temperature. Strong tide increases the vertical and horizontal mixing of water in the oceans,dra-wing the cold Pacific water from the depths to the surface and the warm water from the west to the east, where it cools or warms the atmosphere above, absorbs or releases CO2 to decrease or increase greenhouse effect and to make La Nina or El Nino occur in the global. The moons declination and obliquity of the ecliptic affect the tidal intensity. The exchange of tidal energy and tide -generating force caused by the sun, moon and major planets makes the earths layers rotate in different speeds. The differenti-al rotation between solid and fluid of the earth is the basic reason for El Nino and global climate change.     

LUCC and Accompanied Soil Degradation in China from 1960''''s to 1990''''s

This paper tries to qualitatively analyze land use and cover changes (LUCC) and accompanied soil degradation in China, the data of World Atlas of Agriculture in 1969, Land Cover Data of Asia in 1992 and Global Assessment of Human Induced Soil Degradation in 1992, etc. have been used. From 1960' s to 1990's, the area of forestland had increased, ara-ble land and paddy as well as grassland had significantly decreased in China. The major type of soil degradation is due to wa-ter erosion, which is widely distributed especially in Loess Plateau and in Southeast and Southwest China, this happened in forestland, grassland and arable land and mainly resulted from deforestation. The secondary type is wind erosion, which is mainly distributed in Northwest China, it happened in arable land and grassland and was caused by overgrazing. Chemical deterioration is distributed in North and Northwest China, which happened in paddy, arable land and grassland. Physical de-terioration only concentrated in local area in North     

1982—2000年中国区域地表反照率时空分布特征

利用1982—2000年NOAA-AVHRR数据资料,研究了中国区域地表反照率的空间分布及其随时间的变化规律。结果表明,中国区域年均地表反照率在空间分布上有很大的差异,胡焕庸线以西地区地表反照率明显大于以东地区;年平均地表反照率呈现缓慢下降趋势,但是不同地区的变化趋势有所不同,年均地表反照率显著降低的区域主要集中在华北平原,显著增加的区域主要集中在长白山和大兴安岭北部;不同季节地表反照率存在很大的差异,冬季最大,春、夏季次之,秋季最小,且冬季平均地表反照率波动幅度比较大;不同地表覆盖的地表反照率的年际变化也存在比较显著的差异。     

中蒙干旱半干旱区降水的时空变化特征(Ⅰ):年降水特征及5～9月降水的REOF分析

此系姐妹篇文章的上篇,利用中蒙地区106站1954—2005年间的实测降水资料,使用EOF及REOF等统计方法,整体地分析了中蒙干旱半干旱区降水的时空变化特征。结果表明:(1)中蒙干旱区的降水分布很不均匀(我国西北区尤甚),从该区东南侧最湿的陕南向南疆盆地东端极端干旱区过渡,年雨量从922mm锐减到25mm以下,最干的托克逊仅6.9mm;蒙古国以中北部最湿,年雨量达400mm以上,到南部仅100mm左右,再到西南角仅30mm左右。(2)该区降水分布受不同尺度地形影响大,降水的年及年际变化也大。约80%的降水集中在夏半年(5～9月),南疆盆地东端干中心区的年降水相对变率最大,接近0.80,远高于蒙古国和我国其他地区,也高于全球明显增暖前。其干旱程度及降水变率居世界8大干旱区前列。(3)该区降水异常分布的局域特征明显。区内夏半年的降水异常分布常出现河东、南疆、汉中关中、北疆、蒙古国中北部、河西阿拉善,以及柴达木等7个模态。(4)过去50余年来,中蒙地区东北部的降水总体呈线性减少趋势,而西南部则呈增加趋势。     

不同大气污染物监测密度对CMAQ源同化修正效果影响的模拟

采用(美国环保部的MODEL-3系统的)CMAQ源同化模型及4种不同空间分辨率的SO2、NO2实测资料,反演得到中国不同尺度的同化修正排放源,利用新一代中尺度气象模式WRF与多尺度空气质量模式CMAQ,模拟分析了中国不同观测信息密度对SO2、NO2源同化反演及其浓度预报的影响,重点分析了华北地区SO2、NO2浓度加密观测对改善SO2、NO2排放源和空气质量预报的重要影响。结果表明,采用不同分辨率的实测资料时,SO2、NO2的趋势预报效果改善程度有一定差异;采用较高分辨率的实测资料进行SO2、NO2源同化修正时,可明显减小SO2、NO2浓度的预报误差。华北地区较高分辨率的观测信息对于改进源同化修正效果及SO2、NO2浓度的趋势预报十分重要,尤其是对SO2浓度的预报尤为重要;采用经高分辨率的实测资料同化修正的排放源时,WRF-CMAQ模式对北京城市尺度SO2、NO2浓度的变化趋势、浓度水平和空间分布特征具有较好的预报效果。高分辨率的观测资料和区域源同化反演方法对于区域污染物浓度预报及排放源清单具有显著的改进作用。
