Experimental analysis of shear strength of undisturbed soil in leucaena forest in Jiangjia Ravine,Yunnan, China

Five leucaena trees of similar age were chosen in Jiangjia Ravine of Dongchuan, Yunnan Province, China, near which the soil samples were collected by digging profiles 2m in depth and 1m in width. In each section, soil samples at different depths were taken for direct shear experiments to determine the root amount and mechanical composition. It is found that the cohesion and internal friction angle of the undisturbed soil are related to the root amount, depth, clay content and breccias content. Cohesion correlates negatively with root content, a finding that differs from that of other researchers. In addition, internal friction angle correlates positively with all these factors.

Comprehensive Approaches to Earthquake Prediction

There may be various anomalies from fields of multi-discipline before large earthquakes, including seismological anomalies and the anomalous changes in crustal deformation, underground fluids, geochemistry, geomagnetic fields, ground resistivity, etc. Precursors of a single discipline only reflect the process of earthquake preparation from one aspect. Only when various precursors from multi-disciplined fields are put into a unified process of earthquake preparation can the process be understood and identified comprehensively. The comprehensive methods used in earthquake prediction are outlined in this paper. The relationship that the forthcoming main shock bears with the precursory features such as the time-space distribution, the order of the precursors, etc. is analyzed. Research shows that a few of the main shocks can be predicted with the comprehensive methods to some extent.     

革镇堡隧道破碎段动态施工的三维数值模拟

革镇堡隧道是辽宁省的重点建设工程,其中破碎段岩体地质条件复杂,传统方法不能很好地反映其力学行为。针对上述问题,在建立大规模的复杂地质结构的数值网格基础上,采用三维岩土工程软件FLAC3D,分别根据无支护、初次支护和二次支护3种情况,4 m一个步长,分为上下两台阶对该段隧道的分步动态施工过程进行了三维数值模拟。通过对位移场、应力场的演化情况和塑性区分布的模拟计算,分析了开挖支护动态过程的复杂力学行为。计算结果显示,位移与监测数据比较一致,现有的二次支护方案能够保证围岩的稳定性。数值模拟的结果对于该段隧道的施工具有指导意义。     

Magnetic constraints on the spatial distribution of seismic activity

The lithospheric magnetic field (LMF) in China and its surrounding are calculated using the spherical harmonic coefficients given by the NGDC-720 model. The LMF comes from the magnetization of minerals in the crust and in the uppermost mantle. It may, therefore, provide unique insight into lithospheric tectonic processes and mechanisms. Here, we study the geomagnetic manifestation of active tectonic blocks, and find a close correlation between the LMF and seismicity. Many large faults are found to closely overlap with magnetic anomalies, or are distributed along the boundaries of magnetic anomalies. Earthquakes in these fault regions have occurred on the boundaries of magnetic anomalies, or in the transition zones between positive and negative anomalies. We analyze the components of the LMF, and the LMFs at different altitudes, finding that the vertical component, B _z at 200 km, is the most related to seismic activity. Relevant physical mechanisms are also discussed. We propose that the stress or viscosity differences caused by temperature variations, which manifest in the LMF, may be the predominant reason for the correlation between the LMF and seismic activity along large faults.     

人工回灌过程中的水-岩相互作用模拟

人工回灌过程中所发生的水-岩相互作用是影响回灌层位地下水环境质量的重要因素。采用室内实验和水文地球化学模拟等技术对人工回灌过程中的水-岩相互作用机理进行了分析。研究结果表明：受混合作用影响,随着回灌水比例的增加,混合水中TDS质量浓度降低,水化学类型由Cl·HCO₃-Na型水逐渐转变为HCO₃·Cl-Na·Ca型水;受水-岩作用影响,在同一混合比例条件下,随着水-岩作用的进行,混合水中TDS质量浓度升高,各主要离子质量浓度呈现升高的趋势,但只有回灌水比例占10%时,混合水TDS质量浓度才大于原始地下水（涨幅约5%）。实验介质溶解于水的离子中,Ca²⁺、Mg²⁺和HCO^-₃主要来源于碳酸盐矿物的溶解, Na⁺主要来自岩盐的溶解。在人工回灌过程中,发生的水-岩相互作用主要包括方解石、白云石、钾长石、岩盐、CO₂的溶解和伊利石的沉淀。其中:钾长石溶解量与伊利石沉淀量、碳酸盐矿物溶解量与CO₂溶解量的相关性较强,其相关系数分别为1.00和0.78（显著性水平为0.05）;硅酸盐矿物反应量和回灌水比例之间的相关系数为0.97（显著性水平为0.01）,相关性极强;而碳酸盐矿物反应量和回灌水比例之间的相关系数为0.52（显著性水平为0.01）,相关性较弱。上述相关性分析为确定人工回灌过程中的水-岩相互作用机理、地下水中主要离子组分的来源途径以及定量分析人工回灌对含水层介质的影响提供了依据。     

Purification and characterization of iron-cofactored superoxide dismutase from Enteromorpha linza

A superoxide dismutase was purified from Enteromorpha linza using a simple and safe procedure, which comprised phosphate buffer extraction, ammonium sulphate precipitation, ion exchange chromatography on Q-sepharose column, and gel filtration chromatography on Superdex 200 10/300GL. The E. linza superoxide dismutase （E/SOD） was purified 103.6-fold, and a yield of 19.1% and a specific activity of 1 750 U/rag protein were obtained. The SDS-PAGE exhibited E/SOD a single band near 23 kDa and the gel filtration study showed E/SOD＇s molecular weight is near 46 kDa in nondenatured condition, indicating it＇s a homodimeric protein. E/SOD is an iron-cofactored superoxide dismutase （Fe-SOD） because it was inhibited by hydrogen peroxide, insensitive to potassium cyanide. The optimal temperature for its maximal enzyme activity was 35℃, and it still had 29.8% relative activity at 0℃, then E/SOD can be classified as a cold-adapted enzyme. E/SOD was stable when temperature was below 40℃ or the pH was within the range of 5 10. The first 11 N-terminal amino acids orE/SOD were ALELKAPPYEL, comparison of its N-terminal sequence with other Fe-SOD N-terminal sequences at the same position suggests it is possibly a chloroplastic Fe-SOD.     

持久性有机污染物气——土界面交换研究进展

气-土界面交换对于持久性有机污染物(POPs)在区域和全球尺度上的传输迁移、重新分布和归趋具有重要意义。气-土界面交换所涉及的过程主要包括:干沉降、湿沉降和从土壤向大气的挥发。其中, 气态化合物的扩散交换是决定“源和汇”的关键过程。气态化合物在气-土界面的交换过程由大气和土壤之间的浓度梯度驱动, 土-气分配主要受化合物理化性质、温度和土壤有机质的影响。随着全球POPs禁用进程的加快, 中纬度污染地区的土壤逐渐成为低分子量化合物向大气排放的二次源;而对于高分子量的化合物来说, 土壤仍然是污染物的汇, 可以存储更多的污染物。气-土交换方向还受到温度的影响, 呈现出土壤夏季为源、冬季为汇的季节性变化特点。逸度模型是估算POPs 气-土交换通量的有力工具, 由通量大小可以定量判断源和汇的强度。此外, 还讨论了目前POPs气-土界面交换研究中存在着的一些不足, 并提出该领域未来可能的发展趋势。
