Assessment of spatio-temporal variations in vegetation recovery after the Wenchuan earthquake using Landsat data

The 8.0-magnitude Wenchuan earthquake in 2008 damaged the ecology of northwestern Sichuan, China. This study assessed ecological changes within a few years of the earthquake through satellite observations of vegetation dynamics in the earthquake area. As an ecological indicator, the fractional vegetation cover was extracted using the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index based on multi-year Landsat images and was validated using airborne images. We found that the entire mountainous disaster area had recovered by 68.45 % 3 years after the 2008 earthquake. After rapid recovery of vegetation in 2009, the recovery process slowed. The vegetation recovery rate (VRR) in the area heavily damaged by landslides was slightly lower but nearly that of the entire disaster area. In addition, because of differences in the proportions of soil and rock in the damaged areas, recovery of vegetation in the southwest portion of the study area was slower than in the northeast areas. Topographic analysis of vegetation recovery patterns indicated that damage to vegetation was closely related to slope, while recovery of vegetation was more sensitive to elevation. The landscape analysis showed that the recovery rate (65.21 %) of the excellent vegetation cover type was slower than the overall VRR. This study suggests that vegetation recovery is a slow ecological process and that ecological restoration should be implemented in mountainous regions affected by the earthquake.

Effects of Bioflocs on Artemia Growth and Water Quality

正1 Introduction Bioflocs is a heterogeneous mixture of the microorganisms,particles,organic polymers and dead cells,etc.(Hargreaves,2006).Among which,heterotrophic bacteria convert efficiently the ammonia nitrogen into the bacterial protein,which provides the supplementary feed for culture animals and reduces the nitrogen level in the culture system(De Schryver et al,2008).In the closed aquaculture system,the growth of     

世界各国草地资源管理体制及其对我国的启示

草地在世界各大洲均有分布,世界各国对草地资源的管理有着不同的体制与策略.本文梳理了各大洲主要国家的草地资源管理体制,分析了草地资源管理历史进程与趋势,总结了各国草地资源管理的优势和可资借鉴之处.结合我国草地资源管理中存在的问题,建议我国要在国家层面重视草地资源的管理,建立专门行政部门管理全国60忆亩草地,建立健全现有的草地资源管理体制,同时建立草原质量的监测数据网络,并加强对草地利用的监管力度.     

我国核电站选址的区域稳定性研究

核能是重要的能源之一。利用核能发电在世界能源构成中占有愈来愈重要的地位。 修建核电站,要求严格的安全和环境条件,必须绝对保证核电站在各种可能遭遇的自然和人为事件情况下,均不致发生造成放射性物质外泄的事故。因此,除了要求核电站建筑物和各种装置本身安全可靠并拥有周密而充分的安全措施外,特别要求在选择厂址时,必须充分查明和预测各种可能遭受的自然灾害。在各种能危及核电站安全的自然灾害中,与工程地质直接有关的问题有许多方面,本文仅就核电站选址中,厂址地区的区域稳定问题作一简要探讨。     

预植入金刚石微粉的WC-Co合金表面金刚石薄膜沉积特征

通过提高金刚石薄膜与硬质合金基底间的粘结力,可提高涂层工具的使用寿命。实验结果表明,在预植入金刚石微粉的硬质合金表面沉积金刚石薄膜,金刚石既在预植入金刚石表面同质外延生长,又在硬质合金上结晶生长,两者交互生长,且相容性较好,最终生长为致密均匀的金刚石薄膜。     

松嫩平原湿地植被对生境干-湿交替的响应

扎龙湿地和向海湿地水分布存在不均一性，生境中有“干-湿”交替过程。选取“干-湿”界面上沼泽植被与草甸植被共存的群落片断分别设置15个固定样方，生长季内4个月观测结果表明：扎龙湿地和向海湿地生境旱生化时羊草为优势种群，湿生化时芦苇为优势种群，芦苇沼泽群落和羊草草甸群落随生境“干-湿”交替过程相互演替，演替过程既受生境水分波动的影响，又由优势种群内在生物学特性决定。

不同辐射参数化方案对南京地区大雾过程数值模拟的影响

为了比较不同长、短波辐射参数化方案对江苏省大雾过程的模拟效果,本文利用WRF模式,通过设计不同长、短波辐射参数化方案,对江苏省2015年5月18—21日和12月20—21日2次典型大雾过程进行了数值模拟,讨论了模式中不同长、短波辐射参数化方案对江苏省大雾过程的模拟影响。采用平均绝对误差(MAR)、均方根误差(RMSE)、皮尔逊相关系数(r)及中国气象局颁布的雾区预报规定,评价得到不同条件的最优模拟方案。结果表明:(1)热力条件与水汽条件,模拟最优方案为长波GFDL方案与短波RRTMG方案组合。(2)动力条件,最优辐射参数化方案组合为CAM方案与FLG方案组合。(3)雾区的模拟,效果最好的方案为长波GFDL方案与短波RRTMG方案的组合。
