FITS、BMP和SCR图象格式及相互转换

本文详细介绍图象的ＦＩＴＳ格式、ＢＭＰ格式和ＳＣＲ格式。ＦＩＴＳ格式已经是天文界的通用格式，几乎所有的天文软件包都支持这一格式，而ＢＭＰ格式在ＰＣ计算机上有广泛的运用，有大量ＰＣ软件支持ＢＭＰ图象的显示，处理和打印。云南天文台的ＳＣＲ格式是ＰＣ机采集ＣＣＤ图象所使用的格式。实现这三种格式的相互转换，就可以自由的将ＣＣＤ图象在ＰＣ机和工作站上进行各种处理。转换的包括图象头和图象数据的转换，其关键在于交换数据的高低字节。     

A rope-shaped solar filament and a IIIb flare

On September 14–18, 2000, a medium-small solar active region was observed at Ganyu Station of Purple Mountain Observatory. Its spots were not large, but it had a peculiar active filament. On Sep.16, a flare of importance III_b with rather intense geophysical effects was produced. Our computation of the magnetic structure of the active region reveals that the rope-shaped filament was concerned with a low magnetic arc close to magnetic neutral line. An intense shear of magnetic field occurred near magnetic rope. The QSL analysis shows that a 3-D magnetic reconnection might appear in the vicinity of filament, and this can be used to interpret the formation of a large flare.     

Mass heterogeneities and convection in the earth's mantle inferred from gravity and core-mantle boundary irregularities

Mass heterogeneities in the earth's mantle are retrieved from the gravity data and the topography of the core-mantle boundary as well as the topography of the earth's surface. A mantle circulation induced by the heterogeneities is modelled by solving the Stokes problem for incompressible Newtonian fluid. The derived models of mantle motions correlate well with the plate tectonics and point at a close relation between the surface tectonic activity and the processes in the vicinity of the core-mantle boundary.     

Assessment of frozen-ground conditions for engineering geology along the Qinghai–Tibet highway and railway, China

The Qinghai–Tibet Highway and Railway (the Corridor) across the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau traverses 670 km of permafrost and seasonally frozen-ground in the interior of the Plateau, which is sensitive to climatic and anthropogenic environmental changes. The frozen-ground conditions for engineering geology along the Corridor is complicated by the variability in the near-surface lithology, and the mosaic presence of warm permafrost and talik in a periglacial environment. Differential settlement is the major frost-effect problem encountered over permafrost areas. The traditional classification of frozen ground based on the areal distribution of permafrost is too generalized for engineering purposes and a more refined classification is necessary for engineering design and construction. A proposed classification of 51 zones, sub-zones, and sections of frozen ground has been widely adopted for the design and construction of foundations in the portion of the Corridor studied. The mean annual ground temperature (MAGT), near-surface soil types and moisture content, and active faults and topography are most commonly the primary controlling factors in this classification. However, other factors, such as local microreliefs, drainage conditions, and snow and vegetation covers also exert important influences on the features of frozen ground. About 60% of the total length of the Corridor studied possesses reasonably good frozen-ground conditions, which do not need special mitigative measures for frost hazards. However, other sections, such as warm and ice-rich or -saturated permafrost, particularly in the sections in wetlands, ground improvement measures such as elevated land bridges and passive or proactive cooling techniques need to be applied to ensure the long-term stability of thermally unstable, thick permafrost subsoils, and/or refill with non-frost-susceptible soils. Due to the long-history of the construction and management of the Corridor by various government departments, adverse impacts of construction and operation on the permafrost environment have been resulted. It is recommended that an integrated, executable plan for the routing of major construction projects within this transportation corridor be established and long-term monitoring networks installed for evaluating and mitigating the impact from anthropogenic and climatic changes in frozen-ground conditions.     

Метод трех направлений

Summary In [1] the author has put forward a three-direction method, a general way of adjustment of angular observations in incomplete sets by the method of extending into angular combinations, and the definition of mean weightP ^*. In this article the question is dealt with as a whole. In the three-direction methods>3 triangulation directions are measured in direction triplets 123, 234, 345,… …,s12, while in the method of measuring single angles at the station they are measured in angles 12, 23, 34, 45, …,s1. The advantage of transition from angles to direction triplets rests, besides in saving 31% of pointings, above all in certain possibility of elimination of the horizontal refraction, which follows from this. The treatise of the relation between the method of measurement and the refraction is not included into this article, as it would go beyond its scope. The fact that adjusted directions, with the exception of the stations having four directions, are not of equal weight, is proper not only to the three-direction method. The non-equality of weights is even more conspicuous in the method of measuring single angles at the station, and it appears already at the stations having four directions. In author's view the homogeneity of observation elements is more important than the homogeneity of weights from the point of view of adjustment at the station; therefore the direction triplets ought not to exist abreast with the angles in one programme, and especially the number of observations ought to be constant at one station with adjusted direction of homogeneous mean weight in the net. This transition from angles to direction triplets could also provoke a comment that simultaneous visibility of three adjoining directions occurs less often than of two such directions. The author adds to this that nowadays the causes of this phenomenon, following from unsuitable technique, must be eliminated. It is just air limpidity that ought to define the visibility, not unsufficient or everywhere equal intensity of light of reflectors, or too long sides of the triangulation net. Recent approach to this problem requires simultaneous visibility of all directions during most of the days of observation. In connection with the out-of=date technique, the methods of angular observation often have one unfavourable character: they are the cause of the accumulation of observations of “always visible” directions. The supposed merit of angles thus turns into their imperfection.

中国全新世哺乳动物群有众多地点，并已作了详细研究，绝大多数地点有＾１４Ｃ的年代测定，全新世一更新世的界线，作者根据哺乳动物及＾１４Ｃ年代测定，在１２－１０ｋａＢ．Ｐ之间，可作为二者之间的过渡层位，在１０ｋａＢ．Ｐ。可作为全新世的开始，中国的全新世大暖期出现于８．５－３．０ｋａＢ．Ｐ。在此期间内的哺乳动物偏南种类似为明显，如亚洲象，苏门犀及爪哇犀等，在５．６－３．０ｋａＢ．Ｐ。这一时期内的气候波动剧     

棉兰老涡旋的数值模拟

用一个水平分辨率比较高的非线性正压模式,对热带西太平洋海域里的海流进行了数值模拟。计算海流与观测结果颇相一致。结果表明:赤道以北、棉兰老岛以东附近海域中,棉兰老冷涡在一年的大部分时间里都得到发展,但是其范围、强度和中心位置在各个月份并不相同,显示出很强的季节变化;在哈马黑拉岛东北海域,6月份突然出现了一个反气旋式的涡旋;这个涡旋8月份发展得最强,一直持续到10月份,在11月份就消亡了。
