Vertical distribution and source identification of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in anoxic sediment cores of Chini Lake, Malaysia: Perylene as indicator of land plant-derived hydrocarbons

Four anoxic sediment cores were collected from Chini Lake, Malaysia in order to investigate the variability of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) and perylene concentrations. The study also determined significant differences of perylene concentrations in different sediment layers. Total PAH concentrations ranged from 248 to 8098 ng g⁻¹ in the samples. Diagnostic PAH ratios such as methylphenanthrenes/phenanthrene (MP/P), phenanthrene/anthracene (P/A) and fluoranthene/(fluoranthene + pyrene) (Fl/(Fl + Py) revealed a dominance of pyrogenic influences and partial petrogenic inputs to the top sediment layers. Perylene concentrations were high in the top layers (<12 cm) and increased with increasing depth. There is a significant positive correlation (r = 0.705, p = 0.01) between perylene concentrations and TOC. Analysis of variance (ANOVA) and LSD revealed significant differences (p < 0.05) in TOC-normalized perylene concentrations between the upper (<12 cm) and bottom layers (>12 cm). The average perylene concentrations accounted for 26–50% (0–12 cm) and 50–77% (12–36 cm) of pentacyclic-aromatic hydrocarbon isomers (PAI) present whereas it made up 10–34% (0–12 cm) and 46–66% (12–36 cm) of the total PAH. The average pyrene concentrations decreased with increasing depth and accounted for 62% (0–3 cm), 20–23% (3–12 cm) and 3–1.4% (12–36 cm) of perylene present. The results of hierarchical cluster analysis based on these ratios suggested different input sources for the top and bottom layers. It is concluded that the activity of termites on woody plants produced perylene which is supplied to the lake by run-off from the heavy and frequent rains in this Asian tropical climate. In addition, there was also in situ formation of perylene in the bottom layers due to diagenetic processes.     

基于标准化降水指数的石家庄干旱时空特征

干旱是影响石家庄的主要气象灾害之一。基于1972～2006年石家庄市17个气象站的逐月降水资料,采用标准化降水指数,分析了石家庄的干旱时空分布特征。结果表明,石家庄干旱的发生程度具有阶段性特征,20世纪70年代和90年代是比较严重的干旱阶段,70年代春旱严重,到90年代夏秋旱比较严重。用主成分分析对石家庄干旱的空间分布特征进行分析,石家庄干旱在空间分布上具有显著的一致性,同时也存在一定的区域性,根据因子分析将石家庄分为北部、东部和南部3个区域,90年代后较90年代前东部和南部干旱有所增多,北部减少。

Aerosol optical properties and its radiative forcing over Yulin,China in 2001 and 2002

The aerosol optical properties and direct radiative forcing over the Mu Us desert of northern China, acquired through a CE318 sunphotometer of the ground-based Aerosol Robotic Network (AERONET), are analyzed. The seasonal variations in the aerosol optical properties are examined. The effect of meteorological elements (pressure, temperature, water vapor pressure, relative humidity and wind speed) on the aerosol optical properties is also studied. Then, the sources and optical properties under two different cases, a dust event and a pollution event, are compared. The results show that the high aerosol optical depth (AOD) found in Yulin was mostly attributed to the occurrence of dust events in spring from the Mu Us desert and deserts of West China and Mongolia, as well as the impacts of anthropogenic pollutant particles from the middle part of China in the other seasons. The seasonal variation and the probability distribution of the radiative forcing and the radiative forcing efficiency at the surface and the top of the atmosphere are analyzed and regressed using the linear and Gaussian regression methods.

论地震预测(报)现状及基础研究问题

我国的地震预报研究取得了重要进展,在防震减灾事业中目前仍然起着决定性的作用,然而预测（报）的能力仍然较低,对大量的地震仍作不出成功的预测（报）。要显著提高地震预测能力,需要加强基础研究。这种研究应从地震预测（报）能力的现状出发,重点应放在地震前兆异常的成因类别与属性、机理与可靠性等“原始”问题的研究上,而不是回避这些基础问题而去研究那些靠不住的“上层建筑”问题。     

矿物磁性特征在金矿床形成及成矿预测中的作用

金矿床形成和成矿预测一直为国内外学者所关注。随绿岩带金矿、暗色岩易富金及赤铁矿总含有大粒金等不断地被发现,指示矿物磁性对金矿床形成有一定的控制作用。1)金粒级的大小与磁体间作用力的强弱呈正比,磁力的大小与两磁体间距离的平方呈反比,这正、反比规律进一步解析绿岩带富金机理和强、弱磁性岩石富金条件的差别。2)电流在金、黄铁矿和磁黄铁矿等附近每一点都能产生磁化场(H场)和磁通密度(B场),H场和B场的大小与不同成矿介质具有一定的正比例关系,按此比例可追踪含矿流体形成过程和富金条件。3)根据矿物磁性特征,建立了矿物磁力晕、矿物磁性矢量等找矿标志。4)除温度和压力等因素外,矿物磁性特征应视为金矿床形成和预测主要条件之一。     

Spatiotemporal distributions and influences on snow density in China from 1999 to 2008

Ground snow observation data from 1999 to 2008 were used to analyze the temporal and spatial distribution of snow density in China. The monthly maximum density shifted from north to south during the period from October to the following January, and then moved back from south to north during the period from January to April. The maximum snow density occurred at the border between Hunan and Jiangxi provinces in January, where snow cover duration was short and varied remarkably. Snow density in Northeast China and the Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region were also high and showed less variation when the snow cover duration was long. Ground observation data from nine weather stations were selected to study changes of snow density in Northeast and Northwest China. A phase of stable snow density occurred from the middle ten days of November to the following February; non-stationary density phases were observed from October to the first ten days of November and from March to April. To further investigate the effects of climatic factors on snow density, correlations between snow density and precipitation, air temperature, snow depth and wind velocity for Northeast and Northwest China were analyzed. Correlation analysis showed that snow depth was the primary influence on snow density.
