The hypoxia of the bottom waters in the Razdolnaya River estuary was observed for the first time in September 2014 during the survey. It is formed as in the seaward part: oxygen is absorbed as a result of destruction of excessive phytoplankton biomass that settles to the bottom and is synthesized on the upper horizon. The high value of primary production in the riverine part of the estuary was caused by the pycnocline formed. Thus, phytoplankton “blooms” above and undergoes destruction beneath the pycnocline. Oxygen is distributed symmetrically in both parts of the estuary with respect to a bar: similar oxygen concentrations, which are maximum on the surface and minimum at the bottom, 300 and <60 μm/L, respectively, are recorded. The anomalies of hydrochemical parameters that have been formed during this process are sharply different in the two parts of the estuary, which most vividly manifests itself in the N/P value and the partial pressure of carbon dioxide pCO2. The causes of this unique situation are discussed.
Landslides - Flow-like landslide is one of the most catastrophic types of natural hazards due to its high velocity and long travel distance. In 2019, a large catastrophic landslide was triggered by... 相似文献
Solid backfill mining has apparent technical advantages in extracting coal resource under sensitive surface structures such as buildings and roads; meanwhile, as an effective method of disposing mining wastes, it works well in solving some environmental problems caused by mining activities. In addition, the controlling effect of solid backfill mining is directly related to the compaction characteristic of backfilling materials. The present study aims to modify the backfilling materials by assessing the effect of binders (cement, fly ash, and lime) on the compaction characteristic of granulated gangue backfilling materials. The compaction test was performed with rock mechanic test system equipped with a self-made circular cylinder apparatus. From the results obtained, cement is not the suitable binder for modifying the gangues backfilling materials, while fly ash or lime, when the dosage is up to 20 wt%, is beneficial to the compaction characteristic of backfilling materials. The relationship between strain behavior and micro-structure of backfilling materials was investigated by SEM and the effect of fly ash or lime on the strain behavior of backfilling materials could be associated with its cementation and gap-filling effect. 相似文献
