Remote monitoriug ice velocities of the polar record and the Dark Glaciers

Measurement of ice velocities of the Antarctic glaciers is very important for studies on Antarctic ice and snow mass balance. The polar area environmental change and its influences on the global environment. Conventional methods may be used for measuring the ice velocities, but they suffer from severe weather conditions in the Polar areas. Use of satellite multi-spectral and muki-temporal images makes it easier to measure the velocities of the glacier movements. This paper discusses a new method for monitoring the glacial change by means of multi-temporal satellite images. Temporal remotely sensed images in the Ingrid Christensen coast were processed with respect to geometric rectification, registration and overlay, The average ice velocities of the Polar Record Glacier and the Dark Glacier were then calculated, with the changing characteristics analyzed and evaluated. The advantages of the method reported here include promise of all-weather operation and potentials of dynamic monitoring through suitabl     

Expectation for the X—ray Galactic Halo

1 INTRODUCTION In the hierarchical clustering model, massive objects form by gravitational aggregation oflower-mass objects, and the disks in spiral galaxies like our Galaxy form by a late accretionof gas from an extended reservoir around the galactic halos. According to this scenario, spiralgalaxies are still growing at present. At the virial temperature of galactic halos, T r.-' io5 ?i06 K, the dominant cooling mech-anism is X-ray bremsstrahlung. If the cooling rate is significant, the…

Phosphorus distribution in the sediments of a shallow eutrophic lake,Lake Chaohu,China

In this study, the sediment profiles of total phosphorus (TP), inorganic phosphorus (P_i), organic phosphorus (P_o), C/P and N/P were used to investigate time-dependent P distribution changes in Lake Chaohu. The characteristics of P_i and P_o fractions in the surface sediments were studied and the difference between east and west lake region was also discussed. The P_i and P_o contents displayed a clear gradient from east to west in sediments of Lake Chaohu, and the P_o/P ratios were lower in sediments with industrial and urban pollution sources input in west lake region. The study indicated that different sediments area had diverse concentrations and distributions of P_o fractions due to their different drainage basin and pollution sources. The profile distribution of the C/P and N/P ratios decreased with increasing depths and stayed relatively constant ratios at the depths of 15–30 cm. The C/P and N/P ratios were always below Redfield ratios in sediment profile, indicating P enrichment but likely due to the preferential loss of carbon in respect to phosphorus. The rank order of P_i-fractions extracted was HCl-P_i > NaOH-P_i > NaHCO₃-P_i in surface sediments. The relative distribution of NaHCO₃-P_i and HCl-P_i was in agreement with the trophic conditions of the regions studied. Among the sequentially extracted P_o forms, the rank order of P_o fractions was residual P_o > HCl-P_o > fulvic acid-P > humic acid-P > NaHCO₃-P_o, with mean relative proportion of 5.4:3.4:2.2:1.1:1.0.     

Insertal Orientation Has No Influence on the Expression of gfp Gene and the Growth of the Host Synechococcus sp. PCC7942

In transgenic process, a foreign gene can be integrated in the host genome in two directions, which may influence its expression. In order to study the effects of insertal orientation, the gfp reporter gene was inserted in the isiAB locus of Synechococcus sp.PCC7942 in different directions, and the GFP expression levels and the growth of the transgenic algae were compared. It was showed that the gfp gene could express in each direction, and no significant difference was detected on algal growth and GFP expression levels between the two recombinant algae.

煤炭资源开发状况遥感信息判读方法浅析——以神府煤矿区为例

以陕西神府煤炭资源开采密集区为试验区,利用高分辨率遥感影像特征(色调或色彩,既波谱特征)和空间特征(形状、大小、阴影、纹理、图形、位置和布局),分析了矿山开发过程中所涉及的不同地物信息识别方法,据此建立了煤炭资源开发状况遥感判定标志.根据制定的煤炭资源开发状况判读标志,在试验区解译煤矿46处,其中露天矿山18处,硐采矿山28处,并对全部解译煤矿进行了野外实地验证.经统计,全部46处露天和硐采煤矿的开采位置及开采状态判断准确率较高.近年来由于资源整合,多家企业硐口的开采位置和开采状态都发生明显的变化,因此该煤炭信息判读标准体系的建立对煤矿生产状况调查及维护矿业秩序具有重要意义.
