Seasonal dynamics of CO2 fluxes from subtropical plantation coniferous ecosystem

As one component of ChinaFLUX, the measurement of CO₂ flux using eddy covariance over subtropical planted coniferous ecosystem in Qianyanzhou was conducted for a long term. This paper discusses the seasonal dynamics of net ecosystem exchange (NEE), ecosystem respiration (RE) and gross ecosystem exchange (GEE) between the coniferous ecosystem and atmosphere along 2003 and 2004. The variations of NEE, RE and GEE show obvious seasonal variabilities and correlate to each other, i.e. lower in winter and drought season, but higher in summer; light, temperature and soil water content are the main factors determining NEE; air temperature and water vapor pressure deficit (VPD) influence NEE with stronger influence from VPD. Under the proper light condition, drought stress could decrease the temperature range for carbon capture in planted coniferous, air temperature and precipitation controlled RE; The NEE, RE, and GEE for planted coniferous in Qianyanzhou are −387.2 g C·m⁻² a⁻¹, 1223.3 g C·m⁻² a⁻¹, −1610.4 g C·m⁻² a⁻¹ in 2003 and −423.8 g C·m⁻² a⁻¹, 1442.0 g C·m⁻² a⁻¹, −1865.8 g C·m⁻² a⁻¹ in 2004, respectively, which suggest the intensive ability of plantation coniferous forest on carbon absorbing in Qianyanzhou.

     

土地利用动态与风力侵蚀动态对比研究——以内蒙古自治区为例

内蒙古是我国土壤风力侵蚀较为严重的地区之一,同时也是我国土地利用方式剧烈变化的地区之一。依据两期土地利用数据以及相应年代的土壤风力侵蚀数据,研究了20世纪90年代末期内蒙古自治区土地利用和风力侵蚀的静、动态格局。根据土地利用和风力侵蚀的空间分布及动态变化特点,设计了内蒙古土地利用-风力侵蚀动态区划,基于该区划详细讨论了内蒙古不同地区占主导地位的土地利用动态与风力侵蚀动态,由此揭示了两者之间存在的驱动--被驱动关系。研究发现,在20世纪90年代末期,内蒙古土地利用和风力侵蚀的基本格局没有太大变化,但风力侵蚀强度在总体上增强了;土地利用的变化主要反映为草地的退化和耕地的扩张。土地利用动态与风力侵蚀动态有着良好的时空对应关系:草地的退化与耕地的扩张导致了显著的风力侵蚀增强,而草地的改善以及耕地的收缩对风力侵蚀的影响不如前者明显,这表明了土地利用动态对风力侵蚀动态正、反向驱动的不平衡性。     

基于改进SVM分类法的SAR图像水体面积提取研究

在复杂地表环境下的多云多雨地区,基于合成孔径雷达（SAR）图像提取水体时容易受到其它地物如水田、山体阴影等干扰,传统的灰度阈值法和SVM法未能考虑水体与其它地物在纹理和地形上的差异,因此水体提取结果精度较差。研究首先用Refined Lee滤波对SAR图像进行预处理;其后通过DEM建模和坡度计算提取地形特征,通过计算图像灰度共生矩阵以提取纹理特征（包括均匀性、角二阶矩和熵）,并结合SAR图像极化信息以及SDWI指数形成针对水体提取的特征空间,通过融合地形特征和图像纹理特征发展了改进SVM分类法的水体提取模型。在使用Sentinel-1 SAR数据对所发展模型与SDWI水体指数法、传统SVM法水体提取结果进行比对后发现,改进SVM分类法提取的水体结果较好地剔除了水田和山体阴影,且提取的水体水面比传统的SVM法更加完整;该方法在总体精度、Kappa系数、漏分率和错分率指标上均优于SDWI法和传统的SVM法,总体精度达到98.06%,比SDWI法和传统的SVM法分别提高了23.24%和5.49%,有效提高了复杂环境下地表水体的提取精度。研究最后将所发展模型应用于2018年马哈韦利河流域逐月水...     

基于PnET-CN模型的亚热带人工针叶林生产力与固碳潜力模拟研究

A generalized, lumped-parameter ecological model PnET-CN was calibrated and validated for a subtropical coniferous plantation in southern China. PnET-CN model describes the biogeochemical cycles of carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) and can assist in estimating carbon sequestration potential. For validation of PnET-CN, data from coniferous forest plantations in southern China was used. Simulated daily gross primary productivity (GPP) from 2005 to 2007 agreed well with observations (R2=0.56, S.D.=0.009). Simulations of monthly soil res-piration (Rs) from 2005-2007 agreed well with Rs observations (R2=0.67, S.D. =0.03). Simu-lated annual net primary productivity (NPP) from 1998-2006 was 803 33 gCm 2a 1, about 4% higher than NPP observation (752 51 gCm 2a 1). Simulations of annual NEP from 2005 2007 only overestimate 9 gCm 2a 1 (4%), 4 gCm 2a 1 (1%) and 34 gCm 2a 1 (8%) compared to NEP observations, respectively. Simulated annual foliar N concentration (FolNCon) (1.09%) is 10% lower than observed monthly FolNCon (0.87%-1.58%). Simulated annual N leaching (0.26 gNm 2) is about 10% lower than leaching observation (0.29 gNm 2). PnET-CN model valida-tion indicates that PnET-CN is capable to simulate daily GPP, annual NPP, annual NEP, monthly Rs, annual FolNCon and annual nitrate N leaching for subtropical coniferous planta-tions in southern China. The results obtained from the validation test revealed that PnET-CN model can be used to simulate carbon sequestration of planted coniferous forests in southern China to a high level of precision. Sensitivity analysis suggests that great care should be taken in developing generalizations as to how forests will respond to a changing climate. PnET-CN performed satisfactorily in comparison to other models that have already been calibrated and validated in coniferous planted subtropical forests in China. Based on PnET-CN validation and its comparison to other models, future improvement of PnET-CN should focus on seasonal foliar N dynamics and the effects of water stress on autotrophic respirations in subtropical coniferous plantations in southern China.     

渤海湾盆地中生代构造差异演化 与潜山油气差异富集

渤海湾盆地中生代经历了多期构造运动,差异沉降与隆升作用控制了研究区基底地层组合、构造样式的差异展布。综合前人大量研究成果与勘探地球物理资料,对不同凹陷中生代的构造演化分析表明,印支期Ⅱ幕与燕山期Ⅱ幕是控制研究区基底结构差异分布的关键构造期。不同构造时期古亚洲构造域、西太平洋构造域、特提斯洋构造域的差异影响与太行山断裂、盐山—兰聊断裂、郯庐断裂带的差异活动造就了研究区形成了西部强隆构造区、中部反转构造区、东部—北部走滑构造区以及南部持续沉降区4种结构基底。油气勘探成果表明基底结构差异控制了潜山储层的差异发育与供油窗口形成的难易程度,进而控制了潜山油气的差异富集,其中西部强隆区与东部—北部走滑构造区潜山油气富集程度高,富集层位老;中部反转构造区与南部持续沉降区潜山油气富集程度差,潜山油气富集层位新。     

Water and Wastewater Treatment in Africa – Current Practices and Challenges

Sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation is an important part of the millennium development goals (MDGs). For most African countries, an extensive effort is needed for the last three remaining years for the achievement of the MDGs, especially in Sub‐Saharan Africa. Current practices for water and wastewater treatment in Africa are insufficient to ensure safe water and basic sanitation. To address this challenge, joint efforts are needed, including transforming to green economy, innovating technologies, improving operation and maintenance, harvesting energy, improving governance and management, promoting public participation, and establishing water quality standards.     

渤海海域西南部前新生代反转构造特征及成因机制

渤海西南海域前新生代发育多种类型的反转构造,不同类型的反转构造对研究区中生代构造演化具有重要的指示意义。基于钻井及三维地震资料,总结了研究区前中生代反转构造特征,并探讨了其成因机制。结果表明:(1)研究区发育正、负两期反转,其中负反转构造以反转断层为主,根据反转断层在新生代是否活动,将其进一步划分为长期活动型反转断层与短期活动型反转断层;(2)受控于早期断层的规模及刚性基岩的差异支撑作用,不同的反转断层具有差异的活动时间及其走向;正反转构造则以反转背斜为主;(3)两期反转构造是对华北板块燕山运动的有效记录,其中早期负反转构造记录了燕山运动Ⅰ幕、Ⅱ幕造山运动后岩石圈的裂解过程,而正反转构造则是燕山运动Ⅲ幕太平洋板块NW向俯冲的持续响应。
