Genetic diversity of wild barley (Hordeum vulgare ssp. spontaneum) and its utilization for barley improvement

Wild barley (Hordeum vulgare spp. spontaneum) is the undisputed progenitor of cultivated barley and offers considerable potential as a genetic resource for barley improvement. Naturally occurring populations are distributed primarily across the Fertile Crescent, but secondary areas of diversity are also found in central Asia and Tibet. The pattern of its genetic diversity is non-random, and is structured on a global, regional and local scale. On a global scale, diversity follows ecogeography, while on a regional and local scale, it is more strongly determined by ecology. Populations growing in areas where the climate is unreliable and/or the soil is heterogeneous tend to retain the most diversity. A large number of accessions are currently conserved ex situ, but a high proportion of these have originated from the Fertile Crescent. Given the likelihood of future climate change, conserving germplasm both in situ and ex situ in the various regions where the species’ currently existing is a research priority. The value of H. vulgare spp. spontaneum for the improvement of cultivated barley lies largely in its potential contribution to the levels of attainable pathogen resistance and abiotic stress tolerance.

东昆仑西大滩盆地晚新生代构造地貌简析

东昆仑山脉的南缘,发育一条巨型的以左行走滑为主的活动断裂带,其中西大滩左行走滑断裂是东昆仑断裂带的一部分,控制着西大滩盆地的构造地貌演化。本研究在野外调查了西大滩盆地内部和盆地边缘的活动断裂,测量了这些断层的几何学参数,并对其运动学进行了研究。研究认为,晚新生代以来西大滩盆地中心发育有西大滩左行走滑断裂,而在盆地南北两侧则发育有伸展变形,存在一系列活动的高角度脆性正断层,可见清晰的断层三角面构成盆地南北两侧的山坡。这些正断层呈阶梯状产出,向盆地内部倾斜,与盆地中心的左行走滑断裂一起,在剖面上构成负花状构造,证明西大滩盆地发生了张扭性变形。走滑断裂的走滑运动往往伴随构造转换现象,在断裂弯曲或侧接部位可以形成走滑拉分盆地。西大滩盆地从其盆地形态来看,是一个狭长的张扭性盆地,盆地长宽比值约为7.5~30.0之间,大于7︰ 1,不符合典型的走滑拉分盆地的特征;控制西大滩盆地的西大滩走滑断裂并未见明显的弯曲,从而排除盆地的走滑拉分成因。本文认为西大滩盆地的形成与西大滩断裂本身的张扭性变形直接相关,反映了该地区区域上处于张扭性而非压扭性应变状态,其成因与上地壳刚性变形和下地壳塑性流变密切相关;西大滩地区构造地貌的演化受控于晚新生代以来青藏高原下地壳通道流(channel flow)的活动。结合前人的研究成果认为东昆仑活动断裂带晚期的张扭性活动可能起始于至少7Ma B.P.以前或10±2Ma B.P.,且在昆仑山垭口盆地断陷形成时期(3.6Ma B.P.)活动更加强烈,在0.6Ma B.P.的"昆仑-黄河运动"时期可能达到顶峰,奠定了东昆仑西大滩地区现今的构造地貌格局。

Thermodynamic modeling of binary CH4-H2O fluid inclusions

This work reports the application of thermodynamic models, including equations of state, to binary (salt-free) CH₄-H₂O fluid inclusions. A general method is presented to calculate the compositions of CH₄-H₂O inclusions using the phase volume fractions and dissolution temperatures of CH₄ hydrate. To calculate the homogenization pressures and isolines of the CH₄-H₂O inclusions, an improved activity-fugacity model is developed to predict the vapor-liquid phase equilibrium. The phase equilibrium model can predict methane solubility in the liquid phase and water content in the vapor phase from 273 to 623 K and from 1 to 1000 bar (up to 2000 bar for the liquid phase), within or close to experimental uncertainties. Compared to reliable experimental phase equilibrium data, the average deviation of the water content in the vapor phase and methane solubility in the liquid phase is 4.29% and 3.63%, respectively. In the near-critical region, the predicted composition deviations increase to over 10%. The vapor-liquid phase equilibrium model together with the updated volumetric model of homogenous (single-phase) CH₄-H₂O fluid mixtures (Mao S., Duan Z., Hu J. and Zhang D. (2010) A model for single-phase PVTx properties of CO₂-CH₄-C₂H₆-N₂-H₂O-NaCl fluid mixtures from 273 to 1273 K and from 1 to 5000 bar. Chem. Geol.275, 148-160), is applied to calculate the isolines, homogenization pressures, homogenization volumes, and isochores at specified homogenization temperatures and compositions.

一次飞机积冰环境中的云微物理特征

2014年3月12日利用机载粒子探头(DMT)对我国宜昌及周边地区的非降水云系进行了探测时发现了少量的飞机积冰,本文分析了积冰云层中云微物理量的分布特征。垂直平均分布表明,CAS、CIP和PIP粒子数浓度分别大于300个·cm~(-3)、1个·cm~(-3)和10~(-5)个·cm~(-3),粒子中值直径最大值分别为3μm、89μm和1389μm。谱分布表明,3650m高度重力碰并和凇附过程使得CIP和PIP粒子谱较宽,3650m以下谱宽较窄,粒子以凝结增长为主,大粒子和冰晶粒子主要是由高层下落造成。平飞观测统计表明,3350m的CAS和CIP粒子平均数浓度均大于3650m的值,但PIP粒子数浓度、粒子平均和最大中值直径则相反。平飞时间变化表明,3350m高度CAS粒子数浓度和直径大致呈反相关,3650m大云滴和冰雪晶粒子的数浓度和中值直径随时间波动较大。     

NUMERICAL STUDY ON THE EFFECTS OF SEA SURFACE TEMPERATURE ON TROPICAL CYCLONE INTENSITY-PART I:NUMERICAL EXPERIMENT OF THE TROPICAL CYCLONE INTENSITY RELATED TO SST Duan Yihong;Qin Zenghao;Gu dianfeng;Li Yongping, Shanghai Typhoon Institute.Shangh

In the context of a model of tropical cyclone intensity based on an improved meso-scaleatmospheric model, numerical simulation is performed of the track and intensity variation oftropical cyclones (TC) arising from sea surface temperature (SST) variation over a specified searegion. Evidence suggests that the model is capable of modeling quite welt the track and intensityof TC: SST variation leads to an abrupt change in the cyclone intensity: the response of thecyclone to the abrupt SST change lasts 8—12 h.     

用现今小震推断洪洞、临汾两次历史大震的震源断层

山西临汾地区是一个历史强震多发区，1303年和1695年发生了洪洞（M＝8）和临汾（M＝73／4）两次特大地震，这两次地震所在区域至今仍在持续不断的小地震活动，具有明显的大震区地震长期活动特征，我们对临汾无线传输地震台网记录的1987－1999年期间发生的1670次中，小地震重新进行了震源定位，根据对这些地震震源位置三维空间分布特征和震源机解制的分析，认为洪洞地震的震源断层应是长80km，埋深5－26km的NNE走向，高倾角的右旋走滑型断层，而临汾地震的震源断层是长70km，埋深5－22km的NWW走向，高倾角的左旋走滑型断层。这与洪洞，临汾两次大震极震区的等震线及该地区应力场的构造环境是吻合的。     

Dynamical effects of environmental vertical wind shear on tropical cyclone motion, structure, and intensity

Summary A series of numerical experiments on an f plane are conducted using the fifth-generation Pennsylvania State University-National Center for Atmospheric Research Mesoscale Model, version 3 (MM5) to investigate how environmental vertical wind shear affects the motion, structure, and intensity of a tropical cyclone. The results show that a tropical cyclone has a motion component perpendicular to the vertical shear vector, first to the right of the shear and then to the left. An initially axisymmetric, upright tropical cyclone vortex develops a downshear tilt and wavenumber-one asymmetry when embedded in environmental vertical wind shear. In both small-moderate shears, a storm weakens slightly compared to that in a quiescent environment. The circulation centers between 300 hPa and the surface varies from 20 km to over 80 km. The secondary circulation becomes quite asymmetric about the surface cyclone center. As a result, convection on the upshear-right quadrant diminishes, limiting the upward heat transport in the eyewall and thus lowering the warm core and leading to a weakening of the storm. In strong vertical shear (above 12 m s⁻¹), the vertical tilt exceeds 160 km in 48 h of simulation and the secondary circulation on the upshear side is completely destroyed with low-level outflow. The axisymmetric component of eyewall convection weakens remarkably and becomes much less penetrative. As a result, the warm core becomes weak and appears at lower levels and the storm weakens rapidly accordingly. This up-down weakening mechanism discussed in this study is different from those previously discussed. It emphasizes the penetrative role of eyewall convection in transporting heat from the ocean to the mid-upper troposphere, maintaining the warm core structure of the tropical cyclone. The vertical shear is found negative to eyewall penetrative convection.
