Delayed geochemical hazard: Concept, digital model and case study

Delayed Geochemical Hazard (DGH briefly) presents the whole process of a kind of serious ecological and environmental hazard caused by sudden reactivation and sharp release of long-term accumulated pollutant from stable species to active ones in soil or sediment system due to the change of physical-chemical conditions (such as temperature, pH, Eh, moisture, the concentrations of organic matters, etc.) or the decrease of environment capacity. The characteristics of DGH are discussed. The process of a typical DGH can be expressed as a nonlinear polynomial. The points where the derivative functions of the first and second orders of the polynomial reach zero, minimum and maximum are keys for risk assessment and harzard pridication.The process and mechanism of the hazard is due to the transform of pollutant among different species principally. The concepts of "total releasable content of pollutant", TRCP, and "total concentration of active specie", TCAS, are necessarily defined to describe the mechanism of DGH. The possibility of the temporal and spatial propagation is discussed. Case study shows that there exists a transform mechanism of "gradual release" and "chain reaction" among the species of the exchangeable and the bounds to carbonate, iron and manganese oxides and organic matter, thus causing the delayed geochemical hazard.     

Chemical forms of heavy metal contaminants in sediments of Miyun reservoir

The chemical forms, spatial distribution and sources of As, Hg, Cd, Pb and Zn in sediments of the Miyun reservoir were studied. The results of sequential extraction demonstrate that most of As, Pb and Zn were bound to the residual fraction, Hg was associated with the sulfide fraction while Cd was associated with the carbonate fraction and the residual fraction. On the vertical profiles the concentrations of the heavy metals in total and each fractions mostly decreased with increasing depths in sediments, suggesting that the heavy metals input from the upstream watershed increases yearly. Summation of the residual fraction, the sulfide fraction and the carbonate fraction accounts for 60.03%―85.60% of the total heavy metal contents in the sediments, which represent the geochemical background values of the elements and relate closely to soil erosion. Results of the main factor analysis show that most sediments of the reservoir come from the upstream soil erosion, the point source pollution and domestic waste. Moreover, the microbial activities taking place on the sediment-water interface are also one of the major factors to cause the increasing content of the organic matter fraction and the iron-manganese oxide fraction. Environmental change of the reservoir water could make the removability of the heavy metals increase, leading to the increase of their concentrations in pore water in sediments, and imperiling water quality of the reservoir.     

Least-squares wave-path migration

We present a new least-squares migration method called least-squares wave-path migration. The proposed method combines an iterative conjugate-gradient solver with a stationary-phase wave-path migration operator. Numerical tests demonstrate that (i) least-squares wave-path migration is computationally more efficient than and almost as accurate as Kirchhoff least-squares migration, and (ii) many of the artefacts seen in wave-path migration images are suppressed after several conjugate-gradient iterations. Previous results have shown that 3D wave-path migration is up to 100 times faster than a standard 3D Kirchhoff migration, but sometimes at the cost of reduced quality. With the proposed least-squares wave-path migration method, the image quality in wave-path migration can be improved at an acceptable increase in computational cost.

历史探究：“侯家窑人”与“许家窑人” 名称之争——浅谈“许家窑人”名称的合法性问题

本文简要回顾了“许家窑-侯家窑遗址”和所谓“许家窑人”的研究历史及其名称的沿革过程,并对“许家窑人”名称的合法性提出质疑。从考古学角度来看,前人将考古遗址名称确定为“许家窑-侯家窑遗址”是可以理解的,因为山西省阳高县许家窑村与河北省阳原县侯家窑村相邻,相距不远;同时该名称是经国务院1976颁布确定的,是受国家法律法规保护的。但从古人类学角度来看,将侯家窑村（74093地点）发现的古人类命名为“许家窑人”是不合情理的,也是不合法的,因为传统上古人类的名称都是以化石发现地来命名的（俗名）,正确的做法应该将侯家窑村发现的人类化石冠以生物学名称（学名）,如直立人、智人、龙人等。实际上,山西许家窑村（73113地点）根本就没有发现过任何人类化石。根据一些学者在文中提供的化石描述、测量数据及化石图片,笔者等倾向于认为,河北侯家窑村发现的人类化石可能属于‘龙人’的一个亲缘种（Homo aff. longi）,在更新世古人类研究中具有十分重要的科学价值。     

能见度集合预报及后处理技术应用

基于污染物情况、环流系统和时空分布特征分析,利用神经网络对历史数据进行建模,生成了能见度集合预报产品。在2022年冬季的TS评分检验中,预报产品优于欧洲中期数值预报中心模式(ECMWF)的能见度预报产品。利用概率匹配、最优百分位和神经网络三种后处理方法生成后处理产品,这些产品的TS评分优于集合预报产品。预报输入的ECMWF模式2 m湿度与实况的偏差是误差的主要来源。利用集成方法对三种后处理产品进行集成,其TS评分结果在低能见度区间总体接近或略优于原始产品。生成的能见度集合预报后处理最优集成预报产品成功提高了对中期延伸期能见度天气的预测准确性。     

Characterization and Application of S-Band Polarimetric Radar and X-Band Phased Array Radar for a Tornadic Storm Event on June 16,2022

The X-band phased array radar offers faster scanning speed and higher spatial resolution compared to the S-band radar, making it capable of enhancing tornado monitoring and early warning capabilities. This study analyzed the char- acteristics and nowcasting signals of a tornado case that occurred on June 16, 2022 in the Guangzhou region. Our findings indicate that the violent contraction of rotation radius and the dramatic increase in rotation speed were important signal characteristics associated with tornado formation. The X-band phased array radar, with its high temporal and spatial resolution, provided an opportunity to capture early warning signals from polarimetric characteristics. The X-band phased array radar demonstrated noteworthy ability to identify apparent tornado vortex signature (TVS) features in a 10-minute lead time, surpassing the capabilities of the CINRAD/SA radar. Additionally, due to its higher scanning frequency, the X- band phased-array radar was capable of consistently identifying TVS with shorter intervals, enabling a more precise tracking of the tornado’s path. The application of professional radars, in this case, provides valuable insights for the monitoring of evolutions of severe local storms and even tornadoes and the issuance of early warning signals.     

近1800年以来内蒙古达里湖浮游植物群落演变及驱动因素

湖泊是地质历史上区域生态环境演变的重要载体,其沉积物中包含了丰富的环境演变信息。达里湖是典型的草原内陆封闭型湖泊,位于东亚夏季风的北部边缘,地理位置关键。本研究基于在达里湖采集的约238 cm沉积物岩芯 (GDL-1),通过²¹⁰Pb和¹³⁷Cs (岩芯上部20 cm)、AMS¹⁴C测年,以及沉积物样品中甾醇等生物标志物含量分析,重建了近1800年以来达里湖硅藻、蓝藻等典型藻类含量的演化历史,并结合总氮(TN)、总磷(TP)、盐度(Sr/Ba)和温度(T)等环境代用指标,分析藻类群落的主要影响因素。结果显示达里湖典型藻类总量平均为2.03 ng/g(最高6.69 ng/g,最小0.53 ng/g),其中蓝藻占比平均为60%,绿藻和硅藻占比平均为20%;环境因子对硅藻、蓝藻和典型藻类生物量的解释率分别为47.7%、55.20%和48.10%,T、TN和Sr/Ba是影响浮游植物群落的主要影响因素;硅藻占比与温度呈显著负相关,小冰期硅藻占比最高,中世纪暖期占比最低;在达里湖的高盐环境下,湖泊营养盐浓度对藻类的影响受到限制,成为藻类等生长的限制因素;Sr/Ba小于0.9时,硅藻含量与典型藻类总量随着Sr/Ba值的升高而增加,Sr/Ba大于0.9时,典型藻类总量与Sr/Ba值呈负相关关系,而硅藻则表现出对盐度具有一定的耐受性;整体上,近1800年以来,区域或全球性气候事件通过改变达里湖盐度、营养元素浓度和温度来影响典型藻类群落结构。在暖期阶段,蒸发作用增强等导致的湖泊盐度增加成为达里湖典型藻类群落结构演变的主要影响因素;在冷期,营养元素浓度和温度的降低成为湖泊水体浮游植物生物量的主要影响因素。     

人地复合生态系统韧性研究进展及其对海岸带生态系统韧性研究的启示

在全球气候变化与人类高强度开发的双重影响下,人地复合生态系统和受陆海系统交互影响的海岸带地区生态脆弱性更加明显。如何有效把握人地复合生态系统发展动向,合理规划与调控社会经济活动、促进人地关系协调发展一直是可持续发展领域研究的重点课题。韧性作为系统的内在特征,在防范化解灾害风险、维护区域生态安全中发挥着重要作用,是人地复合生态系统可持续发展能力的重要表现。然而,目前关于人地复合生态系统韧性的内涵、评估方法等方面尚未形成统一的范式,韧性的量化评估方法存在较大差异。通过梳理和归纳现有研究成果认为,韧性经历了从工程韧性、生态韧性到演进韧性的转变,其概念及内涵仍在不断拓展与深化;总结对比了基于过程形成性和状态总结性的韧性评估方法发现,将韧性作为过程与结果的综合评估研究仍较为缺乏;在抵抗扰动、维持稳定和协调发展的韧性理念下,生态系统的保护与修复等将是区域可持续发展应用中人地复合生态系统安全的重要保障。根据人地复合生态系统韧性研究进展的分析结果,结合海岸带生态系统韧性研究的现状及不足,认为未来需要在加强海岸带生态系统韧性内涵挖掘、完善海岸带生态系统韧性评价体系、提高海岸带生态系统韧性监测精度、促进学...     

江西赣县大埠钨多金属矿田成岩成矿时空结构与找矿预测

大埠矿田位于南岭成矿带东段,是于都-赣县钨多金属矿集区重要组成,区内已发现钨多金属矿床（点）五十余处,矿床类型包括石英脉型、矽卡岩型、云英岩型和细脉浸染型等,各类矿化主要围绕大埠复式花岗岩体产出。然而,大埠矿田岩浆作用具有明显的多期次、多阶段的特点,各期次成岩成矿时代尚缺乏系统研究,各类岩浆岩与矿化关系争议较大。文章在岩体地质和矿床地质调查基础上,通过LA-(MC)-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年、锆石微量元素和Hf同位素分析,精确厘定了大埠花岗岩的成岩时代,探讨了多期次岩浆活动对区内成矿作用的贡献。锆石U-Pb定年结果分别为(429.1±4.7)Ma、(430.0±5.8) Ma、(431.8±4.7) Ma和(158.3±4.1) Ma,结合岩体地质填图信息,笔者认为大埠复式花岗岩基由加里东期和燕山期两部分组成。两期花岗岩均属于高钾钙碱性、过铝质S型花岗岩系列,两者均出现Eu负异常,燕山早期Eu负异常更明显。两期岩体锆石的ε_Hf(t)值分别为-6.3~-1.3与-11.4~-7.1,对应二阶段模式年龄为1.49~1.82 Ga与1.66~1.93 Ga,指示其母岩浆为中元古代的地壳部分熔融形成。锆石微量元素特征显示,两期花岗岩均为陆壳源区、具有相近的结晶温度,燕山早期花岗岩相对于加里东期有更高的结晶分异程度,有更高的氟含量,与钨成矿具有更强的相关性。大埠矿田钨多金属成矿时代集中在159~155 Ma,紧随燕山早期花岗质岩浆侵位而形成。基于大埠矿田成岩成矿时代格架研究,结合花岗岩成矿专属性和成矿地质条件分析,构建了区内钨多金属矿勘查模型,指明了大埠矿田细脉浸染型、云英岩型、内带石英脉型钨矿的找矿方向,预测大埠岩体东北部的燕山早期隐伏岩体具有寻找“合龙式”石英大脉型和细脉-云英岩型钨矿的潜力。
