贝塞尔曲线在虚拟森林景观单树几何模型构建中的应用

虚拟景观模型的生成,需要对实际景观进行抽象和简化。树几何模型和数字高程模型(DEM)是构成虚拟森林景观的两大要素。而树几何模型的构建又是林业GIS三维可视化的基础。在树几何建模中,树干及树枝形状的可视化表达具有突出意义。由于实际树种的复杂性,在计算机中建树模型,通常采用基于过程建模的方式,而这将面临用户如何对模型进行交互式控制的问题：参数太少,不足以描述树形态特征,而参数太多,则模型难以生成和理解。为了解决这个问题,我们引进贝塞尔(Bezier)曲线这种基于控制点的自由曲线来描述树木中的树干以及树枝形状,利用对曲线控制点的变动来控制曲线的形状,进而生成形态各异的树形状,对此,我们基于ActiveX技术生成Bezier曲线控件。结果表明,该方法能够表示多种形状的树干与树枝,具有操作简捷、计算速度快,可视化效果良好的优点。     

A Simple Monte Carlo Method for Locating the Three-dimensional Critical Slip Surface of a Slope

Based on the assumption of the plain-strain problem, various optimization or random search methods have been developed for locating the critical slip surfaces in slope-stability analysis, but none of such methods is applicable to the 3D case. In this paper, a simple Monte Carlo random simulation method is proposed to identify the 3D critical slip surface. Assuming the initial slip to be the lower part of a slip ellipsoid, the 3D critical slip surface is located by means of a minimized 3D safety factor. A column-based 3D slope stability analysis model is used to calculate this factor. In this study, some practical cases of known minimum safety factors and critical slip surfaces in 2D analysis are extended to 3D slope problems to locate the critical slip surfaces. Compared with the 2D result, the resulting 3D critical slip surface has no apparent difference in terms of only cross section, but the associated 3D safety factor is definitely higher.     

Geochemistry of Ore Fluids and Rb-Sr Isotopic Dating for the Wulong Gold Deposit in Liaoning, China

On the basis of detailed geological studies of the Wulong gold deposit, three metallogenic stages can be identified. With quartz fluid inclusions as an object of study, the authors investigated phase characteristics, compositional variations, temperature and pressure changes, fluid evolution, Pb isotope tracing and Rb-Sr isotopic dating of fluid inclusions entrapped in the above three metallogenic stages. The results show that Na+ is decreased obviously with metallogenic evolution, while K+ and other cations and gas compositions (H2, CO, CH4 and CO2) are increased slightly, and that the temperature and salinity vary in a pulsating manner along with the metallogenic evolution. Inverse calculation of hydrogen and oxygen isotopes indicate that at the first metallogenic stage the fluids were magmatic water, at the second stage they were dominated by magmatic water with a minor amount of meteoric water involved, and at the third stage, i.e., the final stage of metallogenesis, the fluids were composed complete     

Distribution Characteristics of Effective Source Rocks and Their Control on Hydrocarbon Accumulation: A Case Study from the Dongying Sag, Eastern China

The exploration conducted in the Bohai Bay basin, eastern China has demonstrated that the abundant petroleum resources have close affinities to the hydrocarbon kitchen with rich organic matter. A number of oil-generating associations with various characteristics of organic geochemistry and assemblages of multiple reservoir facies are developed due to the multi-center sedimentation, multi-source supply and multi-cycle evolution of filling, which have resulted in the formation of multiple oil and gas accumulation zones of various layers and trap styles. Among them the Paleogene Shahejie Formation is the most important hydrocarbon accumulation combination in the Dongying sag. Heretofore, its proved reserve has reached nearly 1.8×109t, which accounts for more than 90% of the total proved reserves of the Dongying sag. Based on previous studies, more than 600 source rock samples and 186 crude oil samples of the Shahejie Formation, collected from 30 oilfields, have been treated with organic geochemical testing     

Two-dimensional Numerical Modeling Research on Continent Subduction Dynamics

Continent subduction is one of the hot research problems in geoscience. New models presented here have been set up and two-dimensional numerical modeling research on the possibility of continental subduction has been made with the finite element software, ANSYS, based on documentary evidence and reasonable assumptions that the subduction of oceanic crust has occurred, the subduction of continental crust can take place and the process can be simplified to a discontinuous plane strain theory model. The modeling results show that it is completely possible for continental crust to be subducted to a depth of 120 km under certain circumstances and conditions. At the same time, the simulations of continental subduction under a single dynamical factor have also been made, including the pull force of the subducted oceanic lithosphere, the drag force connected with mantle convection and the push force of the mid-ocean ridge. These experiments show that the drag force connected with mantle convection is critical fo     

当代生物多样性剧减与古-中生代之交生物绝灭的对比

18世纪以来人类活动对环境造成了强烈破坏,给生物多样性带来了巨大损失.为了了解生物多样性的变化趋势,利用"绝灭物种统计法"、"种-区曲线法"和化石记录对400年以来的生物多样性和古-中生代之交的生物绝灭进行了分析.当代生物多样性剧减表现为物种的快速绝灭(从8×104种/Ma增大到1.2×106种/Ma),而属的绝灭几乎为0;古-中生代之交生物绝灭的初始阶段也表现为物种的快速绝灭(从40种/Ma增大到150种/Ma),并且这个阶段的属的绝灭速率远低于绝灭高峰阶段的相应值(即66属/Ma远小于465属/Ma),可见当代生物多样性剧减相当于二叠-三叠系之交生物绝灭的初始阶段.     

西藏东巧蛇绿岩中玄武质岩石成因和构造背景探讨

蛇绿岩记录了大洋裂解、俯冲消减和大陆增生的一系列过程,西藏北部班公湖-怒江缝合带中的蛇绿岩记录了青藏高原的地体拼合和隆升历史。班公湖-怒江缝合带中段的东巧蛇绿岩十分发育,地表出露较好,主要由地幔橄榄岩、堆晶杂岩、辉长辉绿岩和玄武岩组成。玄武岩呈多个露头产出,每个露头从十几平方米至数十平方米不等,辉绿岩呈脉状(或岩墙)产在玄武岩中。本文对东巧西出露的玄武岩和辉绿岩开展了详细的野外地质考察和室内岩相学、年代学和地球化学研究分析,探讨了该蛇绿岩的成因以及形成背景。研究表明,辉绿岩和玄武岩属低钾拉斑系列和钙碱性系列。辉绿岩轻稀土含量略高于N-MORB,兼具IAT和N-MORB的特征;玄武岩轻稀土相比重稀土稍富集,具有E-MORB的特征。样品的Nb/U值(30～48)均大于地壳平均值(10)以及(Th/Nb)N值(0.58～0.86)均小于1,表明岩石未遭受地壳混染。辉绿岩和玄武岩3个样品的锆石U-Pb年龄值均显示较大的变化区间,结合前人班怒带蛇绿岩年代学的研究成果,将其分为三组,第一组(156～239Ma)代表蛇绿岩自身的年龄,第二组(37～141Ma)为晚于蛇绿岩形成的年龄段,推测其为后期的岩浆事件成因,第三组(277～2454Ma)为早于蛇绿岩形成的年龄,推测其成因为原始地幔中残留的早期俯冲板片所携带的地壳中的锆石。通过岩石地球化学成分对比研究,认为辉绿岩和玄武岩为弧后盆地玄武岩(BABB)。结合前人地幔橄榄岩的研究,本文认为东巧玄武质岩石形成于俯冲带(SSZ)的弧后盆地扩张时期,并受到俯冲带流体不同程度的影响。

利用环渤海区域的气象站资料和NCEP/NCAR、NCEP/DOE、CFSR、ERA Interim、JRA-55共5种再分析资料,讨论了再分析资料近地面10 m平均风速场在环渤海区域的适用性问题。结果表明：JRA资料与观测站的相关系数最大,ERA资料与23站均方根误差的平均最小;再分析资料与气象站观测资料的相关系数在山东半岛和辽东半岛高于其他地区、冬半年大于夏半年。环渤海区域地面10 m平均风速场JRA和ERA两套资料的适用性较好。由于ERA-Interim的水平分辨率更高,所以在强风过程分析中确定使用ERA Interim再分析资料。
