A systematic study on energy dependence of quasi-periodic oscillation frequency in GRS 1915+105

Systematically studying all the RXTE/PCA observations for GRS 1915+105 before November 2010, we have discovered three additional patterns in the relation between Quasi-Periodic Oscillation (QPO) frequency and photon energy, extending earlier outcomes reported by Qu et al. (Astrophys. J. 710:836, 2010). We have confirmed that as QPO frequency increases, the relation evolves from the negative correlation to positive one. The newly discovered patterns provide new constraints on the QPO models.     

“全新特提斯洋”概念与广义特提斯构造域

特提斯最初是指欧亚大陆南缘的古海洋,后逐渐引申出从元古宙、古生代到中生代的一系列位于劳亚大陆与冈瓦纳大陆之间的古大洋,如原特提斯洋、古特提斯洋和新特提斯洋,不同大洋在时间上前后交叠。如今横亘在冈瓦纳大陆(南极洲)和欧亚大陆之间的是印度洋,是新特提斯洋的继承者,可以另称为“全新特提斯洋”。这一概念的引申直接体现了印度洋与特提斯构造域一脉相承的关系,有助于将今论古、由此及彼,更直观地了解特提斯构造域的演化过程。本文按时间序列梳理了印度洋的大地构造演化和岩浆作用过程,识别了印度洋在155 Ma、120 Ma、90～84 Ma、76 Ma、65 Ma、52 Ma、45 Ma、38 Ma等关键时期的异常海底扩张记录,这些扩张事件将为标定新特提斯构造域的演化提供参照。其中155 Ma可能指示了新特提斯洋的鼎盛期,90 Ma指示了新特提斯洋的洋中脊俯冲,76～52 Ma是非洲-阿拉伯大陆与欧亚大陆初始碰撞-主碰撞(即新特提斯洋西部关闭)的时期,65～45 Ma是印度次大陆与欧亚大陆初始碰撞-主碰撞(即新特提斯洋中部关闭)的时期,38 Ma是澳大利亚北部大洋开始净俯冲(即新提斯洋东部开始消减)的时间。...     

青岛台体应变短周期气压系数变化原因探讨

青岛台体应变短周期(小于128 min)气压系数2018-01出现阶变，通过对观测系统、台站周边施工情况、监测环境等逐项现场核实，排除观测系统、周边施工的影响。利用离散小波变换和回归分析发现，钻孔水位的气压系数与体应变气压系数同步阶变，结合台站钻孔施工当天体应变钻孔水位变化、体应变趋势变化、其他相邻台站水位气压系数变化等数据认为，台站钻孔施工是导致体应变气压系数变化的原因，并定性分析其变化机理。     

北半球夏季全球热带和副热带200hPa平均辐散环流的研究

大气的运动场或风场包括两部分:一是旋转部分,另一是辐散部分。虽然旋转部分的方差占总运动场方差的大部分(约占80％),但与辐散风相联系的垂直环流对于天气系统的发展是重要的。Krishna-murti等人最早研究了全球热带的辐散环流。最近他的研究表明,辐散风场的大部分是属于纬向的行星尺度垂直环流的水平分支,这意味着行星尺度系统总是热力直接环流,并且以纬向环流为主。Van der Boogard计算了7月多年平均的速度势场,发现对流层上层最强的辐散中心在中南半岛上空。     

“96·8”华北暴雨数值模拟与稳定性分析

分析1996年8月发生在华北地区的台风暴雨过程的环流形势，发现：副热带高压与台风低压之间的气压梯度很大，宽广的偏南急流源源不断地向北输送水汽和能量，而太行山一带正处于汇合区，构成十分有利的暴雨天气形势。应用MM5数值预报方法对1996年8月4—5日的降雨天气过程进行数值模拟，并依据天气学原理和位涡理论对此过程的稳定性进行分析认为：（1）MM5数值预报模式较好地模拟出了台风暴雨的物理过程。（2）此次降雨的不稳定层结有南高北低现象，同时有对称不稳定和对流不稳定存在；条件性对称不稳定可使环流加速，对降水有一定的增幅作用。     

西藏雄梅地区1∶5万水系沉积物地球化学特征及找矿远景

依据1:5万水系沉积物测量资料,对雄梅地区水系沉积物地球化学特征进行了初步分析。通过对元素分布、元素相关性、单元素异常、组合异常等特征的研究表明,该区Pb、Zn、Au、W、Sn、Bi等元素具有一定的成矿潜力,结合野外异常查证工作,推断大多数异常受岩浆岩和构造作用控制,区内与酸性岩体有关且强度较高、元素组合较好的异常区有利于成矿。依据水系沉积物综合异常的圈定,结合区内成矿地质构造背景,进一步优选出赤打日钨锡多金属矿、查江铅锌多金属矿2个远景区,并在后续的野外工作中得到了相应的验证。     

不同城市规划的生态质量差异对比研究

为定量分析不同城市规划理念带来的生态质量差异,本文以福州市在不同时期规划建设的2座体育场馆为例,基于Sentinel-2A遥感影像,应用新型遥感生态指数RSEI分析对比了这2座体育场馆的生态效应。在全面分析其主要地表覆盖信息的基础上,探讨了二者之间生态质量差异的原因。研究发现,采用传统理念规划的福建省奥林匹克体育中心的生态指数RSEI均值为0.39,而实行绿色生态规划的海峡奥林匹克体育中心的RSEI均值为0.42,优于福建省奥林匹克体育中心。总的看来,海峡奥体中心在规划中采用透水铺装和不勾缝的铺装形式,加大绿地斑块面积以及预留风道等绿色措施有效地提高了地表湿度、降低了地表温度和干度,从而对该体育中心的生态质量起到积极的作用。     

Shallow sediment deformation styles in north-western Campeche Knolls,Gulf of Mexico and their controls on the occurrence of hydrocarbon seepage

During German R/V Meteor M67/2 expedition to Campeche Knolls, southern Gulf of Mexico, a set of 2D high resolution seismic data was acquired to study the near-surface sediment structure and its relationship with hydrocarbon seepages in this salt province. The comprehensive survey covered 20 individual bathymetric highs or ridges and identified three principle structural types: Passive Type, Chaopopte Type, and Asymmetric Flap Type. The first type is the result of passive diapirism, whereas the latter two were initialized by a regional compressional event in the Miocene, but are later differently modified by salt tectonism. Chapopote Type structures appear as symmetrical domes, with uplifted coarse-grained Miocene sediments in their cores and rather thin syn-kinematic sediments covering the crests. Asymmetric Flap Type structures are also first folded as domes or ridges, but one flap later subsided together with salt evacuation, resulting in single uplifted monoclines. With the coarse-grained pre-kinematic sediments as reservoir units, both structural types can focus and accumulate hydrocarbons. The geometries of the structures suggest that hydrocarbons are accumulated in the center of the Chapopote Type structures and in the subsided flaps of the Asymmetric Flap Type structures. Hydrocarbon leakage from these thinly sealed reservoirs is regarded as the principle mechanism for the seepage in the study area, and accordingly the most seepage-prone positions are above these reservoirs. The seep locations suggested by analysis of sea-surface oil slick images of SAR satellite data are also examined in this study. These independently derived seep locations confirm the seepage-prone positions to be above the shallow buried reservoirs. This study suggest that the shallow sediment structures control the distribution of the hydrocarbon seeps of the north-western Campeche Knolls, although the hydrocarbons are sourced from the greater depth.
