基于GF-1影像的西藏亚东地区构造解译研究

随着地质调查工作精度的提高,中低分辨率的遥感影像已难以满足地质构造深入解译的需求。高分一号(GF-1)影像的应用为提高地质构造解译尺度提供了数据基础,特别是在人车通达性较差的地区,可大大减少野外工作量。为此,以地质构造发育的西藏亚东地区为研究区,利用GF-1影像,在分析已有地质资料基础上,构建了研究区的断裂形成机制模型,并结合地形地貌特征,对研究区的地质构造进行遥感解译。结果显示: ①研究区内解译新增断裂418条; ②受SN向应力挤压机制影响,形成于中新世晚期的EW走向断裂为主要断裂,其性质为逆冲断层,EW向应力的引张作用,形成了研究区SN向、NE向断裂,并具有多期活动特点; ③河流和湖泊受断裂控制明显,河流多成SN向,位于逆冲断层上盘的隆升造成了区内河流和湖泊的水位降低。     

Isotopic mapping of groundwater perchlorate plumes

Analyses of stable isotope ratios of chlorine and oxygen in perchlorate can, in some cases, be used for mapping and source identification of groundwater perchlorate plumes. This is demonstrated here for large, intersecting perchlorate plumes in groundwater from a region having extensive groundwater perchlorate contamination and a large population dependent on groundwater resources. The region contains both synthetic perchlorate derived from rocket fuel manufacturing and testing activities and agricultural perchlorate derived predominantly from imported Chilean (Atacama) nitrate fertilizer, along with a likely component of indigenous natural background perchlorate from local wet and dry atmospheric deposition. Most samples within each plume reflect either a predominantly synthetic or a predominantly agricultural perchlorate source and there is apparently a minor contribution from the indigenous natural background perchlorate. The existence of isotopically distinct perchlorate plumes in this area is consistent with other lines of evidence, including groundwater levels and flow paths as well as the historical land use and areal distribution of potential perchlorate sources.     

北吕宋岛菲律宾活动带蛇绿岩及其上覆浊积岩的放射虫研究新进展

The basement of the Philippine Mobile Belt (PMB) is mainly composed of ophiolites that are mostly overlain by Paleogene to Miocene turbidites in central Luzon. To clarify the geological development of the PMB with respect to the initial stage of the arc volcanism (eg. Yumul et al., 2003, 2008; Dimalanta and Yumul, 2003; Suzuki et al., 2011), radiolarian dating was examined in siliceous sediments associated with the ophiolites and turbidites. The samples were collected from sites identified with the Zambales and Montalban ophiolites, basic tuff phyllites in NW Din-galan, and their overlying formations.     

Effects of changing land use on the microbial water quality of tidal creeks

Population growth along the southeastern United States coast has precipitated the conversion of forested watersheds to suburban and urban ones. This study sampled creeks representing forested, suburban, and urban watersheds along a longitudinal gradient for indicators of water quality, including traditional indicator bacteria (fecal coliforms and enterococci) and alternative viral indicators (male-specific and somatic coliphages). Tested microorganisms were generally distributed with highest concentrations in creek headwaters and in more developed watersheds. The headwaters also showed the strongest predictive relationship between indicator concentrations and urbanization as measured by impervious cover. A seasonal pattern was observed for indicator bacteria but not for indicator viruses. Coliphage typing indicated the likely source of contamination was nonhuman. Results suggest that headwater creeks can serve as sentinel habitat, signaling early warning of public health concerns from land-based anthropogenic activities. This study also implies the potential to eventually forecast indicator concentrations under land use change scenarios.

长江经济带宜宾市地质灾害危险性评估

以地处长江经济带,四川盆地和云贵高原过渡带的宜宾市为研究区域,选择地震加速度、地质灾害隐患、地表起伏、坡度、高程、岩石硬度、与断层距离、与水系距离、年平均降水和人类工程活动影响等10个指标,利用信息量分析模型对研究区地质灾害危险性进行评估。结果表明:宜宾市地质灾害危险度以中危险区和低危险区为主,总体处于中等水平;区内地质灾害隐患密度和地质灾害危险性相关,危险性越高,密度越大;评估结果为宜宾市地质灾害防治提供了依据,对长江经济带社会经济和谐发展具有重要意义。     

Species sensitivity distributions: data and model choice

Species sensitivity distributions (SSDs) are increasingly incorporated into ecological risk assessment procedures. Although these new techniques offer a more transparent approach to risk assessment they demand more and superior quality data. Issues of data quantity and quality are especially important for marine datasets that tend to be smaller (and have fewer standard test methods) when compared with freshwater data. An additional source of uncertainty when using SSDs is appropriate selection from the range of methods used in their construction. We show through examples the influence of data quantity, data quality, and choice of model. We then show how regulatory decisions may be affected by these factors.     

青海木里煤矿区荒漠化的驱动因素及防治对策简

使用多期、多源遥感影像数据,选择青海省木里煤矿区开展了荒漠化遥感监测及变化趋势与采矿相关性分析研究。根据多期高分辨率遥感影像提取了矿业活动区信息。采用多期TM遥感影像,分别利用光谱混合像元分解和生物量遥感估算模型方法,提取了多期土地荒漠化信息。对采矿扰动下荒漠化驱动因素分析结果表明:矿业活动区内开采面、矿山占地增长驱动了荒漠化,矿山关停、复绿治理则扼制并减轻了荒漠化;矿业活动区外荒漠化主要受人类活动、道路修建、保护治理政策等因素影响。根据研究结果,提出了矿区荒漠化防治对策。
