耕作方式对苜蓿(Medicago sativa)地土壤团粒的影响

以甘肃干旱区连作5年和轮作1年的苜蓿(Medicago sativa)地土壤为研究对象,对不同耕作方式下土壤团粒结构、容重、含水量指标进行研究。结果表明:在轮作和连作模式下,随着土壤深度的增加,0.25mm土壤团粒质量在干筛和湿筛处理下均降低,0.25mm团粒累积质量越大,分形维数越小。在浸水条件下,粒径为0.5~0.25mm的土壤团聚体含量最高,其它粒径团聚体含量依粒径的增大而降低。轮作土壤含水量呈现先增加后降低、最后再增加的变化过程;0~60cm土层水分含量最高(13.881%),60~80cm土层含水量下降到较低值(10.343%),80~100cm土层水分迅速恢复(13.811%)。连作和轮作土壤容重随土壤深度均呈现依次增大变化,连作最大值为1.425%比最小值高出17.6%,轮作最大值1.432%比最小值高出18.7%。     

Enigmatic association of the carbonatite and alkali-pyroxenite along the Northern Shear Zone, Purulia, West Bengal: A saga of primary magmatic carbonatite

The Purulia carbonatite, ‘carbonatite’-‘alkali-pyroxenite’-‘apatite-magnetite rock’ association, is located at Beldih area of Purulia district, West Bengal and falls within the 100 km long Northern Shear Zone (NSZ). Published literature suggests that the Purulia carbonatite was formed by the process of liquid immiscibility from under-saturated silicate parent magma. However, no silica under-saturated rocks like ijolite, nepheline-syenite etc. is known from the area. The trace element geochemistry (Ba/La, Nb/Th, Nb/Pb and Y/Ce ratios in the present study) also does not support this view. Present study indicates that the Purulia carbonatite is enriched in ΣREE and incompatible elements but the carbonatite is also poorer in Nb, Th and Pb compared to the world average of calicocarbonatites. The lower value of Nb is characteristics of carbo(hydro)thermal carbonatite where carbonatite is associated with alkali-pyroxenite and suggests probable origin of the carbonatite as carbothermal residua evolved from an unknown parentage. However, the field, petrographic and geochemical data indicate the genesis of this carbonatite from a primary carbonatitic magma of mantle decent. The ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio of the carbonatite and apatite separated from the carbonatite (∼0.703) implies primary magmatic derivation of the Purulia carbonatite. Close similarity of the apatite of the apatite-magnetite rock with the mantle apatite (of type Apatite B) indicates that they are also of primary magmatic origin. The present work portrays a unique example where primary magmatic carbonatite is associated with the alkali-pyroxenite.     

Doppler weather radar based nowcasting of cyclone Ogni

In this paper, we describe offline analysis of Indian Doppler Weather Radar (DWR) data from cyclone Ogni using a suite of radar algorithms as implemented on NEXRAD and the advanced algorithms developed jointly by the National Severe Storms Laboratory (NSSL) and the University of Oklahoma. We demonstrate the applicability of the various algorithms to Indian radar data, the improvement in the quality control and evaluate the benefit of nowcasting capabilities in Indian conditions. New information about the tropical cyclone structure, as derived from application of the algorithms is also discussed in this study.     

Short-Term Solar Flare Prediction Using Predictor Teams

A short-term solar flare prediction model is built using predictor teams rather than an individual set of predictors. The information provided by the set of predictors could be redundant. So it is necessary to generate subsets of predictors which can keep the information constant. These subsets are called predictor teams. In the framework of rough set theory, predictor teams are constructed from sequences of the maximum horizontal gradient, the length of neutral line and the number of singular points extracted from SOHO/MDI longitudinal magnetograms. Because of the instability of the decision tree algorithm, prediction models generated by the C4.5 decision tree for different predictor teams are diverse. The flaring sample, which is incorrectly predicted by one model, can be correctly forecasted by another one. So these base prediction models are used to construct an ensemble prediction model of solar flares by the majority voting rule. The experimental results show that the predictor team can keep the distinguishability of the original set, and the ensemble prediction model can obtain better performance than the model based on the individual set of predictors.     

A more exact expression for the gravitational deflection of light,derived using material medium approach

The deflection of a ray of light passing close to a gravitational mass is generally calculated from the null geodesic which the light ray (photon) follows. However, there is an alternate approach, where the effect of gravitation on the ray of light is estimated by considering the ray to be passing through a material medium. Calculations have been done in this paper, following the latter approach, to estimate the amount of deflection due to a static non-rotating mass. The refractive index of such a material medium, has been calculated in a more rigorous manner in the present work, and the final expression for the amount of deflection calculated here is claimed to be more exact than all other expressions derived so far, using material medium approach. Based on this expression, the amount of deflection for a sun grazing ray has also been calculated. The exact amount of deflection can be performed in a number of ways, without the material medium approach. However, the method presented here using the material medium approach and without any weak field approximation is believed to be original.     

Metal enrichment via ram pressure stripping in the IGM of the compact galaxy group RGH 80

By creating and analyzing two dimensional gas temperature and abundance maps of the RGH 80 compact galaxy group with high-quality Chandra data,we detect a high-abundance (■0.7 Z⊙) arc,where the metal abundance is significantly higher than the surrounding regions by ■0.3Z⊙.This structure shows tight spatial correlations with the member galaxy PGC 046529,as well as with the arm-like feature identified on the X-ray image in the previous work of Randall et al.(2009).Since no apparent signature of AGN activity i...
