During the MVSEIS-08 cruise of 2008, ten new mud volcanoes (MVs) were discovered on the offshore Moroccan continental margin (Gulf of Cádiz) at water depths between 750 and 1,600?m, using multibeam bathymetry, backscatter imagery, high-resolution seismic and gravity core data. Mud breccias were recovered in all cases, attesting to the nature of extrusion of these cones. The mud volcanoes are located in two fields: the MVSEIS, Moundforce, Pixie, Las Negras, Madrid, Guadix, Almanzor and El Cid MVs in the western Moroccan field, where mud volcanoes have long been suspected but to date not identified, and the Boabdil and Al Gacel MVs in the middle Moroccan field. Three main morphologies were observed: asymmetric, sub-circular and flat-topped cone-shaped types, this being the first report of asymmetric morphologies in the Gulf of Cádiz. Based on morpho-structural analysis, the features are interpreted to result from (1) repeated constructive (expulsion of fluid mud mixtures) and destructive (gravity-induced collapse and submarine landsliding) episodes and (2) interaction with bottom currents. 相似文献

Ground-shaking scenarios and urban risk evaluation of Barcelona using the Risk-UE capacity spectrum based method 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The Capacity Spectrum Based Method developed in the framework of the European project Risk-UE has been applied to evaluate
the seismic risk for the city of Barcelona, Spain. Accordingly, four damage states are defined for the buildings, the action
is expressed in terms of spectral values and the seismic quality of the buildings, that is, their vulnerability, is evaluated
by means of capacity spectra. The probabilities of the damage states are obtained considering a lognormal probability distribution.
The most relevant seismic risk evaluation results obtained for Barcelona, Spain, are given in the article as scenarios of
expected losses. 相似文献

The Berriasian Huérteles Alloformation is the fourth alloformation in which the Tithonian-Berriasian Depositional Sequence is divided in Eastern Cameros Basin. This depositional sequence can be recognized in several basins East of The Iberian Plate. Huérteles Afm. was deposited in a trough with a NW-SE orientation and strong subsidence. In this trough the sedimentary record exceeds 1000 m in thickness for this alloformation. The Basin shows a marked asymmetry, with the highly subsident trough displaced to the NE.The sedimentary system consists of a playa complex, in which several subenvironments can be distinguished. The proximal or bajada environments were located to the west. The terrigenous materials, that constitute the sediments of these areas, come from the erosion of materials previously deposited in the Basin. To the East the environments were mainly saline lakes, that received siliciclastic materials from the Northeast, where the main border fault system was situated.The vertical sequence in the central part of the Basin (where a perennial saline lake was located) shows a marked cyclicity, with primary sequences about 10 m thick. These consist of laminated limestones in their lower part, and carbonate breccias at the top. These primary sequences represent the filling of a lake, with relatively dilute waters at first, passing gradually into a saline lake. This reflects a transition from humid to arid climatic periods.Additionally there is another cyclicity of a higher rank indicated by sequences about 300 m thick These major sequences are formed by primary sequences. The minor primary sequences are mainly composed of laminated limestones in the lower part of the major sequences, and the carbonate breccias dominate in the upper part of the major sequences. These major sequences may indicate longer periods of climatic variation, that varied from a relatively humid to an arid climate. This sequential arrangement was accentuated by the strong tectonic activity during sedimentation, that produced large slump structures where evaporites were more abundant.This is the sixth paper in a series of papers published in this issue on Climatic and Tectonic Rhythms in Lake Deposits. 相似文献

A spatial data set is consistent if it satisfies a set of integrity constraints. Although consistency is a desirable property of databases, enforcing the satisfaction of integrity constraints might not be always feasible. In such cases, the presence of inconsistent data may have a negative effect on the results of data analysis and processing and, in consequence, there is an important need for data-cleaning tools to detect and remove, if possible, inconsistencies in large data sets. This work proposes strategies to support data cleaning of spatial databases with respect to a set of integrity constraints that impose topological relations between spatial objects. The basic idea is to rank the geometries in a spatial data set that should be modified to improve the quality of the data (in terms of consistency). An experimental evaluation validates the proposal and shows that the order in which geometries are modified affects both the overall quality of the database and the final number of geometries to be processed to restore consistency. 相似文献

Seismic damage evaluation in urban areas using the capacity spectrum method: Application to Barcelona 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

Conceptual aspects related to seismic vulnerability, damage and risk evaluation are discussed first, together with a short review of the most widely used possibilities for seismic evaluation of structures. The capacity spectrum method and the way of obtaining seismic damage scenarios for urban areas starting from capacity and fragility curves are then discussed. The determination of capacity curves for buildings using non-linear structural analysis tools is then explained, together with a simplified expeditious procedure allowing the development of fragility curves. The seismic risk of the buildings of Barcelona, Spain, is analyzed in the paper, based on the application of the capacity spectrum method. The seismic hazard in the area of the city is described by means of the reduced 5% damped elastic response spectrum. The information on the buildings was obtained by collecting, arranging, improving and completing a broad database of the dwellings and current buildings. The buildings existing in Barcelona are mainly of two types: unreinforced masonry structures and reinforced concrete buildings with waffled-slab floors. The ArcView software was used to create a GIS tool for managing the collected information in order to develop seismic risk scenarios. This study shows that the vulnerability of the buildings is significant in Barcelona and, therefore, in spite of the low-to-moderate seismic hazard in the region, the expected seismic risk is considerable. 相似文献

The spatial–temporal patterns of cloud-to-ground (CG) lightning covering the period 2010–2015 over the northwest Iberian Peninsula were investigated. The analysis conducted employed three main methods: the circulation weather types developed by Jenkinson and Collison, the fit of a generalized additive model (GAM) for geographic variables, and the use of a concentration index for the ratio of lightning strikes and thunderstorm days. The main activity in the summer months can be attributed to situations with eastern or anticyclonic flow due to convection by insolation. In winter, lightning proves to have a frontal origin and is mainly associated with western or cyclonic flow situations which occur with advections of air masses of maritime origin. The largest number of CG discharges occurs under eastern flow and their hybrids with anticyclonic situations. Thunderstorms with greater CG lightning activity, highlighted by a higher concentration index, are located in areas with a higher density of lightning strikes, above all in mountainous areas away from the sea. The modeling of lightning density with geographic variables shows the positive influence of altitude and, particularly, distance to the sea, with nonlinear relationships due to the complex orography of the region. Likewise, areas with convex topography receive more lightning strikes than concave ones, a relation which has been demonstrated for the first time from a GAM. 相似文献

This paper deals with the quality of two multivariate statistical models based on the Geographical Information System for
shallow landslide susceptibility assessment in a test area at La Pobla de Lillet (Eastern Pyrenees, Spain). The quality, which
was guaranteed by a rigorous methodology based on a suitable diagnosis, validation, and evaluation of the models, ensured
a reliable contrast of the final susceptibility maps. This enables us to transfer the best results to the end user. Landslide
susceptibility models were carried out by logistic regression and discriminant analysis of the significant conditioning factors
related to the characteristics of the slope and the upslope contributing area captured from the digital elevation model and
landslide distribution. The explanatory variables were tested (KS test, principal components and one-way and T-test) to select the most statistically significant ones before being introduced into the logistic and discriminant analyses.
Accuracy statistics and the receiver operating characteristic curve used for diagnosis and validation showed similar prediction
skills and a good fit to the data with more than 85% of unfailed cells properly classified for the two models. The evaluation
of the study area and the correlation function (R
2 = 0.83) between the models revealed that the discriminant model overestimated the susceptibility of the most stable zones
with respect to the logistic model. Different methods of producing susceptibility maps showed marked differences in matching
the models. Substantial spatial agreement (Kappa = 0.741) between binary maps produced by the standard cut-off value descended
moderately (Kappa = 0.540) as a result of superimposing maps with five susceptibility levels defined by landslide percentage.
Despite the fact that the two statistical models are similar in assessing susceptibility in the study area, the implications
for hazard and risk management can be different because of the conservative nature of the discriminant model. 相似文献
