对流层强迫与平流层暴发性增温

采用平流层准地转－β通道近似下的波流相互作用模型，考虑大气行星波１和波２与流的相互作用，以平流层底部边界强迫波波１和波２的振幅作为参数，对该模型的分岔特性进行了研究．结果表明，系统具有稳态解支Ａ，Ｂ，Ｃ，在某些参数范围内，多种稳态解同时存在．解支Ａ对应于平流层冷冬状态，解支Ｃ对应于平流层增温状态．由于参数变化系统在稳态解Ａ和Ｃ之间发生灾变是冬季平流层暴发性增温的原因．文中给出了二维参数空间中的分岔集，它表明了对流层顶的波动对平流层暴发性增温的控制作用，能很好地解释观测事实．

夏季东北亚阻塞高压年际变化的一个物理机制

根据实际观测资料反演获得描述大气环流演变的空间谱函数后,从改进的高截断谱模式途径出发研究了夏季东北亚阻塞高压年际变化的物理机制.结果表明,前期外部热源强迫的空间分布大致为El Nio型分布时,外部热力强迫导致大气环流演变中波波相互作用主要表现为纬向2波的相互作用;波流相互作用主要表现为经向2波和3波与反映基本流中的经向1波的相互作用.这样使得500 hPa高度场上东北亚地区为一相对正异常区,为夏季东北亚阻塞的频繁发生提供了有利的大气环流背景.而前期外部热源强迫大致为La Nia型分布时,外部热力强迫则导致大气环流演变中波波相互作用主要表现为纬向1波的相互作用;波流相互作用主要表现为经向2波和4波与反映基本流中的经向2波的相互作用.从而使得500 hPa高度场上帆北亚地区出现相对负异常,抑制了夏季东北亚阻塞的发生.     

北美东部下方岩石层一软流层边界的清晰成像

板块构造理论关键在于相对坚硬的岩石层在松软的软流层上方运动的概念，但是目前人们对岩石层与软流层边界的性质还知之甚少。在这一边界中地震波速的梯度变化主要反映了造成这两层岩石强度不同的物理和化学特性。比如，如果岩石层仅仅是热边界层，由于其较低温度而比较坚硬，那么地幔对流模型（King et al，2000；Zaranek et al，2004）揭示在其底部的波速梯度可能持续数十千米。相反，如果软流层由于内部挥发物富集（Hirth and Kohlstedt，1996；Gaherty et al，1999；Karato and Jung，1998；Hirth et al，2000）或存在部分熔融（Anderson，1989）而变弱，那么岩石层与软流层之间的边界带可能会出现在小得多的深度范围。这里，我们用北美东部地区地震转换波对岩石层底部（或小于90～110km深度）非常急剧的地震波速梯度进行了成像——S波的速度在11km深度范围内下降了3％～11％。这样巨大、急剧的边界带不能仅仅用热梯度来解释，但可以用软流层内包含百分之几的部分熔融体（Anderson，1989）或比岩石层有更富集挥发物（Hirth and Kohlstedt，1996；Gaherty et al，1999；Karato and Jung，1998；Hirth et al，2000）来解释这一现象。

旋转流体中的二维惯性重力波-涡相互作用

本文利用f-平面浅水模型讨论了二维情况下快速惯性重力波与平衡涡旋之间的相互作用问题.当快速的惯性重力波传入涡旋区域后,波－涡之间发生了相互作用,涡旋可被加深,涡旋区域的风场等可以出现非对称分布,当惯性重力波全部传出涡旋区域并远离之后,涡旋恢复到其初始状态,但此时惯性重力波可以出现非对称结构,这与一维情况不同.在波－涡发生相互作用过程中,其物理量变化的最大区域分布基本与波动传播方向一致,在波动进入或移出涡旋时,相对应存在两个最大物理量变化区域,此外,相互作用导致的物理量的最大变化与波动结构、强度、传播方向以及涡旋特性有关.非线性条件下的波－涡相互作用要强于线性过程.

A Monte Carlo study of rainfall forecasting with a stochastic model

A procedure for short-term rainfall forecasting in real-time is developed and a study of the role of sampling on forecast ability is conducted. Ground level rainfall fields are forecasted using a stochastic space-time rainfall model in state-space form. Updating of the rainfall field in real-time is accomplished using a distributed parameter Kalman filter to optimally combine measurement information and forecast model estimates. The influence of sampling density on forecast accuracy is evaluated using a series of a simulated rainfall events generated with the same stochastic rainfall model. Sampling was conducted at five different network spatial densities. The results quantify the influence of sampling network density on real-time rainfall field forecasting. Statistical analyses of the rainfall field residuals illustrate improvement in one hour lead time forecasts at higher measurement densities.

Foreword

Destructive earthquakes have caused great damage in China and the United States and collapsing buildings havecaused many deaths and injuries. The field of earthquake engineering studies earthquake hazards, the occurrence ofearthquakes of various magnitudes, the nature of the ground shaking during an earthquake, the vibration of structuresduring earthquakes, the strengthening of existing structures and the design of new structures to be earthquake resistant,and finally, how to cope with earthquake damage and restore a city to normal functioning. Such efforts are in progressin both countries, but unfortunately, the language barrier interferes with the free flow of information between China andthe Untied States. It would be mutually beneficial if some means could be developed to promote the exchangeof information across the Pacific Ocean. This new journal has been established for this purpose and its success willbe an important step in promoting earthquake engineering in China and the United States.

Enhancing remote sensing research on global change to improve our understanding on Earth system processes

正Global Change includes climate change and other environmental changes caused by the joint interaction among various layers of Earth. From the positive side, global change provides new opportunities to human and other living forms on Earth. In the meantime, it creates tremendous challenges and negative impact. At present, the negative impacts have reached all primary processes of the global ecosystem and every aspect of human society, especially causing degradation of the ecosystem. For instance, intensive deforestation causes decline of biodiversity; global warming causes sea level rise and increases     

Solute concentrations in the lower niger river and the source rock contribution

Water quality analyses for the Niger River for the 1980/81 hydrological year are presented. The samples were collected from the main river at Lokoja, and from two main tributaries, the Kaduna and the Benue Rivers. Different water types were distinguished by the concentrations of major ions. The type Ca > Na > Mg > K - HCO₃ > SO₄ > Cl was represented at all stations during at least part of the year. Chloride was found to dominate the sulphate ion in the Kaduna and Niger, while the Benue maintained a higher concentration of sulphate relative to chloride all year round. Distinct patterns of seasonal variation in the ion concentrations were observed, particularly for the samples collected at Lokoja. Low ion concentrations were prominent during periods of high discharge, while low flow periods coincided with high dissolved ion concentrations. The contribution of rainwater to the total dissolved solids in the river waters was assessed indirectly using rainwater chemistry data from the Gulf of Guinea. The estimated rainwater contribution to the Lower Niger amounts to 5.15 mg 1^?1. Geochemical weathering calculations involving reactions of the four major minerals of granitic rocks - anorthite, biotite, albite, and K-feldspar - with carbon dioxide and water, can account for the average water composition of the Lower Niger. The proportion of the ionic components was also related to the occurrence of the respective element in the minerals.
