Sensitivity analysis of groundwater level in Jinci Spring Basin (China) based on artificial neural network modeling

Jinci Spring in Shanxi, north China, is a major local water source. It dried up in April 1994 due to groundwater overexploitation. The groundwater system is complex, involving many nonlinear and uncertain factors. Artificial neural network (ANN) models are statistical techniques to study parameter nonlinear relationships of groundwater systems. However, ANN models offer little explanatory insight into the mechanisms of prediction models. Sensitivity analysis can overcome this shortcoming. In this study, a back-propagation neural network model was built based on the relationship between groundwater level and its sensitivity factors in Jinci Spring Basin; these sensitivity factors included precipitation, river seepage, mining drainage, groundwater withdrawals and lateral discharge to the associated Quaternary aquifer. All the sensitivity factors were analyzed with Garson’s algorithm based on the connection weights of the neural network model. The concept of “sensitivity range” was proposed to describe the value range of the input variables to which the output variables are most sensitive. The sensitivity ranges were analyzed by a local sensitivity approach. The results showed that coal mining drainage is the most sensitive anthropogenic factor, having a large effect on groundwater level of the Jinci Spring Basin.

三峡地区岩家河埃迪卡拉系-寒武系界线剖面碳同位素地层学研究

湖北宜昌三峡地区埃迪卡拉系一寒武系界线位置尚存争议,跨越这一界线的岩家河组地层的分段工作也缺乏统一的意见。对岩家河剖面开展岩相学和碳同位素地层学研究,揭示其碳同位素演化可与扬子板块内滇东北老林剖面和肖滩剖面对比,即自下而上在该界线附近存在一个大的δ13C负漂移、一个稍小的δ13C负漂移和一个大的δ13C正漂移。结合该剖...     

基于FBG技术的饱和膨胀土失水致裂过程试验研究

为了解饱和膨胀土在失水条件下,干缩裂隙发育过程中土体内的应变状态、分布以及变化规律,设计了一个长40cm、宽5cm、深3cm的一维模型槽,将3条FBG传感光栅串埋入饱和膨胀土试样中,对膨胀土不同位置的应变进行了测量,得到了土体失水干缩致裂过程中,各个FBG传感器的应变状态及其变化规律,并分析了首条干缩裂隙及其附近土体的应变分布特征及其时空演化规律。试验结果表明:随着土体含水率的降低,土体首先呈现出整体收缩,之后应变状态发生分异,呈现出拉张区和收缩区交替出现的分布规律; 位于最大收缩区的边缘,当FBG传感器的应变由压缩状态转变为拉伸状态,并且拉应变及其变化速率相对较大的区域将产生首条裂隙。可见,本文所采用的高空间分辨率FBG传感技术为分析膨胀土裂隙发育全过程、揭示膨胀土失水致裂机理,以及膨胀土裂隙性特征的研究提供了新的思路和技术手段。

1999-2013年重庆市土地持续利用与生态环境协调发展耦合性分析

采用主成分分析法并结合SPSS,对1999-2013年重庆市土地持续利用与生态环境的耦合关系进行分析,研究结果表明:1999-2013年土地持续利用指数逐年递增,土地开发利用强度逐年不断加大,城镇化大规模的建设是土地利用强度升高的主要原因;生态环境质量除了在2000-2004年生态环境指数呈“V”字型发展之外,总体呈上升态势发展;重庆市土地持续利用与生态环境耦合发展度由0.387 4（轻度失调衰退土地利用损益型）上升至0.754 0（中级协调发展经济主导型）,但2011年情况有所变化,土地持续利用指数首次低于生态环境指数,耦合发展基本类型由生态主导型转向经济主导型发展,经济发展方式由土地利用制约型演变为生态环境制约型,生态环境效益滞后于土地资源经济效益。土地资源总体利用水平提高和生态环境改善的双重作用是耦合关系由失调发展转化为协调发展的主要原因。现阶段应坚持土地资源集约利用与保护并举,优化经济结构与技术创新齐下,发展循环经济和清洁能源,维系相对稳定的生态环境运行机制,确保重庆市土地资源可持续利用。

Age,origin and climatic controls on vegetated linear dunes in the northwestern Negev Desert (Israel)

The stabilized northwestern (NW) Negev vegetated linear dunes (VLD) of Israel extend over 1300 km² and form the eastern end of the Northern Sinai – NW Negev Erg. This study aimed at identifying primary and subsequent dune incursions and episodes of dune elongation by investigating dune geomorphology, stratigraphy and optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating. Thirty-five dune and interdune exposed and drilled section were studied and sampled for sedimentological analyses and OSL dating, enabling spatial and temporal elucidation of the NW Negev dunefield evolution.In a global perspective the NW Negev dunefield is relatively young. Though sporadic sand deposition has occurred during the past 100 ka, dunes began to accumulate over large portions of the dunefield area only at ～23 ka. Three main chronostratigraphic units, corresponding to three (OSL) age clusters, were found throughout most of the dunefield, indicating three main dune mobilizations: late to post last glacial maximum (LGM) at 18–11.5 ka, late Holocene (2–0.8 ka), and modern (150–8 years). The post-LGM phase is the most extensive and it defined the current dunefield boundaries. It involved several episodes of dune incursions and damming of drainage systems. Dune advancement often occurred in rapid pulses and the orientation of VLD long axes indicates similar long-term wind directions. The late Holocene episode included partial incursion of new sand, reworking of Late Pleistocene dunes as well as limited redeposition. The modern sand movement only reactivated older dunes and did not lengthen VLDs.This aeolian record fits well with other regional aeolian sections. We suggest that sand supply and storage in Sinai was initiated by the Late Pleistocene exposure of the Nile Delta sands. Late Pleistocene winds, substantially stronger than those usually prevailing since the onset of the Holocene, are suggested to have transported the dune sands across Sinai and into the northwestern Negev.Our results demonstrate the sensitivity of vegetated linear dunes located along the (northern) fringe of the sub-tropical desert belt to climate change (i.e. wind) and sediment supply.
