Multicomponent simulations of contrasting redox environments at an LNAPL site

A two-dimensional multicomponent reactive transport modeling approach was used to simulate contaminant transport and the evolution of redox processes at a large-scale kerosene-contaminated site near Berlin, Germany. In contrast to previous site-scale modeling studies that focused either on one or two contaminants or on steady-state redox conditions, multiple contaminants and electron acceptors, including mineral phase Iron (III), were considered with an evolving redox zonation. Inhibition terms were used to switch between the different electron acceptor processes in the reaction scheme. The transient evolution of redox zones and contaminant plumes was simulated for two separate transects of the site, which have different geology and ground water recharge distributions and where quite different downstream contaminant and terminal electron–accepting process (TEAP) distributions are observed. The same reaction system, calibrated to measured concentrations along one of the transects, was used in both cases, achieving a reasonable match with observed concentrations. The differences between the two transects could thus to some extent be attributed to the different hydrological and hydrogeological conditions, in particular ground water recharge distributions. Long-term simulations showed that the distribution of TEAPs evolves as Fe(III) becomes depleted, with conditions becoming increasingly methanogenic, leading to changes in contaminant plume lengths. The models were applied to assess the potential effects of planned changes in land use at the site that may affect the ground water recharge distribution. The simulated redox zonation responded strongly to changes in recharge, which in turn led to changes in the contaminant plume lengths.     

天然气水合物存在的流体特征——以印度西部大陆边缘为例

印度西部大陆边缘的多道地震反射资料揭示了流体排驱是否与天然气水合物相关。在地震剖面上没有典型的似海底反射存在,为了在确定天然气水合物的存在,我们在印度西部大陆边缘的一个小水道找到其它地震反射证据。我们研究了通过海底的排气通道、麻坑、海底滑坡以及反映流体运移通道的断层、清楚的含气沉积、弱振幅、底辟和泥火山等,地震剖面上所有这些流体逸散特征预示着在天然气水合物稳定域内天然气水合物的可能存在。     

华北大地电磁测深阵列观测实验与岩石圈导电性快速成像模型

关于中国大陆岩石圈导电性结构研究越来越引起人们的重视,而目前研究大陆岩石圈导电性结构的主要方法是大地电磁测深（Magnetotelluric sounding）.为此,在国家项目"深部探测技术与实验研究（SinoProbe）"专项里开展了"大陆电磁参数标准网实验（SinoProbe-01）"研究,完成了华北1°×1°地理坐标网度的大地电磁测深"标准点"阵列（Array）观测.本文详细论述了华北SinoProbe-01项目1°×1°MT"标准点"阵列观测实验的概况,以及通过精细的MT数据处理和一维Niblett-Bostick变换快速成像,所获取的华北地区岩石圈导电性三维成像模型.在分析华北岩石圈导电性结构特征的基础上,从电性结构角度把华北与邻区岩石圈划分为胶辽、燕山、鲁西、太行—吕梁等低导电性（高电阻率）块体,内蒙古、阿拉善和祁连中等导电性块体和黄淮、鄂尔多斯、秦岭良导电性（低电阻率）块体,进一步从导电性的角度证实了华北克拉通是由多个块体集合而成的观点.     

机器学习发现地震数据中的隐藏信号

正2018年5月,美国哥伦比亚大学的研究人员在Science Advances发表文章指出,在对加州间歇泉地热区的研究中,他们用机器学习算法从3年的地震记录中发现了不同类型的地震。在这一区域,地震的重复模式似乎与水流入地下热岩的季节性上升和下降相一致,由此说明,水的运移与引起岩石滑动或破裂的机械过程相关,进而引发地震。研究人员汇编了含有46 000次地震的地震目录,每个都以能量波形在震动图中表     

区域地震滑坡体积优化模型

求取滑坡体积在当前是一个难题,原因是其为三维分量,并且部分滑面往往在地下。本文提出了3个区域地震滑坡体积优化模型来计算2008年中国汶川M W7.9地震触发滑坡的体积。本文首先基于20m分辨率的震前和震后SPOT 5卫星影像提取到的数字高程模型(DEM)数据,结合少数滑坡的剖面图,获得了1 415处汶川地震滑坡堆积区体积,作为地震滑坡体积模型训练样本。在常规区域滑坡"体积—面积"模型基础上,提出了3个优化模型。分别利用数据的对数化线性拟合与直接非线性拟合方法对1个常规模型和3个优化模型进行拟合。结果表明,采用直接非线性拟合方法并考虑了滑坡长、宽、高、岩性、坡度和峰值地动加速度后,坡向的优化模型标准误差最小,回归得到的滑坡总体积与滑坡真实总体积也非常接近。将这一模型应用于所有汶川地震滑坡,分别得到每个滑坡的体积。最终结果表明,汶川地震滑坡相对密集分布区内的196 007处滑坡的堆积物体积约为1.2×1010 m~3,源区体积约为1×1010 m~3。根据前人"地震震级—滑坡总体积"经验公式得到的结果仅仅是本文结果的7.5%~9%,这提醒我们有必要基于更多的单次地震触发滑坡总体体积数据对"地震震级—滑坡总体积"的关系进行更新。同时,文中的优化模型对同类研究也有显著的参考价值。     

叠前宽角度反演方法在周返地区盐湖盆地储层预测中的应用

周返地区盐湖盆地发育复杂的盐韵律地层,储层密度可以对该区砂岩储层进行识别,但该区砂岩储层与非储层之间密度差异小,传统基于Aki-Richards近似公式的叠前密度反演结果精度低,无法满足对该区储层预测的要求。本文将精确Zoeppritz方程直接代入广义线性反演误差泛函,推导新的宽角度叠前反演公式,以克服近似公式对大角度叠前地震信号无法正确利用的缺点,进而提高反演结果的精度。对合成地震数据和工区实际数据的反演结果表明,该方法对密度反演结果的精度明显优于近似公式,满足周返地区盐湖盆地岩性油藏的高精度预测。      

青藏高原中部中小地震的精定位、震源机制及构造背景分析

利用绝对地震定位方法(Hpyo2000)对青藏高原中部地区(32°N～36°N,90°E～93°E)于2016年6月至2017年6月期间发生的中小地震进行了重定位。与中国地震台网测定结果相比,定位后结果整体上更加聚集,水平位差距超过10km,深度上集中在0～8km范围内,这表明青藏高原内部上地壳构造活跃。2017年6月共发生8次3.0级以上地震,定位后的震中位置集中分布在格拉丹东附近。定位前后M3.0的小地震的结果也显示明显的差异。为此,我们采用CAP(Cut and Paste)方法反演了M≥3.0地震的震源机制,结果显示其与地表构造性质较为吻合,青藏高原内部仍受到印度板块强烈的挤压作用。其中2017年6月格拉丹东附近发生的8次地震均为正断或走滑兼正断型,根据前人研究结果,猜测这是壳幔活动剧烈的地表响应。

根据作者近年来对胶州湾水域的主要研究结果,分析和探讨了营养盐硅和水温对浮游植物生长的变化和其集群结构的改变影响,研究了胶州湾初级生产力的年变化过程是如何受到营养盐硅和水温的限制和提高,其时间阶段和空间区域又如何划分,营养盐硅和水温如何控制不同阶段和不同区域的初级生产力。同时,揭示了营养盐硅或水温在时间和空间的尺度上如何控制浮游植物生长的变化过程,而且在时空的变化中,2种因子营养盐硅和水温在时间和空间的尺度上又如何有顺序的控制,产生出各种类型的生产力。研究结果展示了在初级生产力的时间和空间的变化过程中,营养盐硅和水温控制初级生产力的不同时间阶段,尤其用增殖能力展示了水温对浮游植物生长的控制时间阶段;营养盐硅控制初级生产力的不同空间区域。从而阐明了营养盐硅和水温控制初级生产力的变化过程。从陆地到海洋界面的硅输送量决定了初级生产力的时间变化过程;硅的生物地球化学过程决定了初级生产力的空间变化过程。因而,营养盐硅和水温是浮游植物生长的“发动机”,营养盐硅是主要的,而水温是次要的。     

Studying the Equilibrium Points of the Modified Circular Restricted Three-body Problem: The Case of Sun–Haumea System

We intend to study a modified version of the planar Circular Restricted Three-Body Problem(CRTBP) by incorporating several perturbing parameters. We consider the bigger primary as an oblate spheroid and emitting radiation while the small primary has an elongated body. We also consider the perturbation from a disk-like structure encompassing this three-body system. First, we develop a mathematical model of this modified CRTBP.We have found there exist five equilibrium points in this modified CRTB...
