Two-step method for the determination of the differential code biases of COMPASS satellites

The differential code bias (DCB) in satellites of the Global Navigation Satellite Systems (GNSS) should be precisely corrected when designing certain applications, such as ionospheric remote sensing, precise point positioning, and time transfer. In the case of COMPASS system, the data used for estimating DCB are currently only available from a very limited number of global monitoring stations. However, the current GPS/GLONASS satellite DCB estimation methods generally require a large amount of geographically well-distributed data for modeling the global ionospheric vertical total electron content (TEC) and are not particularly suitable for current COMPASS use. Moreover, some satellites with unstable DCB (i.e., relatively large scatter) may affect other satellite DCB estimates through the zero-mean reference that is currently imposed on all satellites. In order to overcome the inadequacy of data sources and to reduce the impact of unstable DCB, a new approach, designated IGGDCB, is developed for COMPASS satellite DCB determination. IGG stands for the Institute of Geodesy and Geophysics, which is located in Wuhan, China. In IGGDCB, the ionospheric vertical TEC of each individual station is independently modeled by a generalized triangular series function, and the satellite DCB reference is selected using an iterative DCB elimination process. By comparing GPS satellite DCB estimates calculated by the IGGDCB approach based on only a handful (e.g., seven) of tracking stations against that calculated by the currently existing methods based on hundreds of tracking stations, we are able to demonstrate that the accuracies of the IGGDCB-based DCB estimates perform at the level of about 0.13 and 0.10?ns during periods of high (2001) and low (2009) solar activity, respectively. The iterative method for DCB reference selection is verified by statistical tests that take into account the day-to-day scatter and the duration that the satellites have spent in orbit. The results show that the impact of satellites with unstable DCB can be considerably reduced using the IGGDCB method. It is also confirmed that IGGDCB is not only specifically valid for COMPASS but also for all other GNSS.     

确定大地水准面的Tikhonov最小二乘配置法

LSC法（最小二乘配置法）因能融合不同种类重力观测数据确定大地水准面的特性而受到广泛关注,但由于协方差矩阵存在病态性,微小的观测误差将被协方差矩阵的小奇异值放大,导致计算的配置结果不稳定且精度偏低。本文提出Tikhonov_LSC法,即在LSC法中引入Tikhonov正则化算法,基于GCV法选择协方差矩阵的正则化参数,利用正则化参数修正协方差矩阵的小奇异值,以抑制其对观测误差的放大影响。基于Tikhonov_LSC法计算大地水准面,能有效提高其稳定性和精度。通过以EGM2008重力场模型分别计算山区、丘陵和海域重力异常作为基础数据确定相应区域大地水准面的实验,验证了该方法的有效性。     

2009年初开封市冬小麦大面积干枯死亡原因分析

2009年1-2月,开封市冬小麦出现大面积的枯黄,甚至死亡现象,对2009年全市夏粮总产量和全年粮食总产量的稳定构成了严重的威胁.对麦田实地调查及对麦播以来开封市气候特征分析结果表明,造成2009年初开封市冬小麦出现大面积枯黄死亡的原因主要有以下几个方面:一是小麦播种以后开封市长期干旱少雨,麦田旱情严重,直接影响到冬小麦正常生长;二是2008年12月下旬开封市出现大范围强降温天气,最低气温锐降至-10 ℃以下,全市冬小麦不同程度受冻;三是农户冬季麦田管理措施不到位,普遍未浇越冬水;四是小麦品种选择不当,部分品种抗逆性较差;五是地下害虫危害较为严重;另外还与本地的小麦耕种方式有一定联系.要减少不利因素对冬小麦生长的影响,就要加强对气候变化的认识,及时采取必要的农业技术措施,提高防灾减灾能力,及时关注天气变化,科学合理适时冬灌,加强田间管理,严防冻害发生;加强病虫害的预测预报;科学做好秸秆还田工作.

Analyses of the Compositional Characteristics and Sources of the Organochlorine Pesticides in the Surface Sediments of Guanghai Bay,Taishan City,Guangdong Province

Organochlorine pesticides (OCPs) are a class of toxic and harmful persistent organic pollutants widely found in environment. Hexachlorocyclohexane (HCHs) and DDTs are two of the most widely used OCPs (Qiu et al., 2004), so it is important to find out their compositional characteristics and sources in surface sediments. Guanghai Bay is located in the south of Guanghai Bay Industrial Park in Taishan City, Guangdong Province. It borders Huangmaohai to the east and Zhenhai Bay to the west, covering an area of about 236 square kilometers. In this study, surface sediments were collected at 16 sites in Guanghai Bay (Fig. 1). After the surface sediments were pretreated, GC‐MS was used to analyze OCPs. A total of 14 OCPs were detected and their content was shown in Table 1. The concentration of ΣOCPs ranged between 0.507～0.860ng·g‐1, with an average of 0.680 ng?g‐1. In general, the content of ΣOCPs was the highest at No. A12 site. The concentrations of these 14 detected OCPs ordered as dieldrin > epoxy heptachlor > P, P'‐DDD > γ‐HCH >endrin >aldrin > P, P'‐DDE >mirex >hexachlorobenzene >P, P'‐DDT > α‐HCH > δ‐HCH >β‐HCH > heptachlor.     

华南板块西南缘中三叠统底部火山灰来源 ——以右江盆地者堡敢南一带凝灰岩为例

华南板块西南缘中三叠统底部普遍发育凝灰岩夹层,但对火山灰的来源存在不同认识。位于华南板块西南缘的右江盆地在早—中三叠世为连续海相沉积,较为完整的火山沉积记录为探讨火山灰的来源提供了基础。本文以右江盆地者堡敢南一带早、中三叠世之交凝灰岩为研究对象,在剖面测制基础上,对含凝灰岩层段灰岩进行生物地层分析,划分为4个牙形石带,分别为Neospathodus pakistanensis间隔带;Neospathodus waageni—N.abruptus组合带;Neospathodus homeri—N.triangularis组合带以及Chiosella timorensis间隔带,由此确定第17层凝灰岩为中三叠统底界凝灰岩。凝灰岩岩石学、地球化学分析结果显示为流纹质玻屑凝灰岩,属于亚碱性系列。稀土配分曲线显示为右倾轻稀土富集,明显的负Eu异常。大离子亲石元素(LILE)(Rb、U、Th和Ba等)富集和高场强元素(HFSE)(Nb、Ta、P和Ti等)亏损,整体表现出与弧相关的地球化学特征。在生物地层、同位素年代学对凝灰岩形成时代进行精确限定的基础上,通过华南板块西南缘中三叠统底界凝灰岩的区域分布、矿物组成、地球化学特征,结合右江盆地中—下三叠统火山岩层序特征进行详细对比分析,结果显示广西凭祥—十万大山一带火山岩是其主要来源。
