Fourier-based multi-scale representation and progressive transmission of cartographic curves on the internet

ABSTRACT

Automatic generation of multi-scale representations from the same spatial data source has been the research focus in map generalization for a long time. Based on the Fourier technique, this paper proposes a continuous, multi-scale representation model for progressive transformation of cartographic curves on the Internet. In our method, all the curves, whether closed or open, are depicted as periodical functions which are further expressed as Fourier series. The convergence degrees of the Fourier series are explored for different kinds of curves, and truncating frequencies are derived based on the similarity between the original and reconstructed curves. Using information theory and the Radical Law in cartography, the relationship between map scales and Fourier frequencies is established. Based on the proposed multi-scale model, we also introduce the principles and implementation of a progressive transmission method. Our method is evaluated using the contours from a topographic map. The results show that our model is a valid approach to multi-scale representation of cartographic curves.     

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in coastal sediments of southwest Taiwan: An appraisal of diagnostic ratios in source recognition

Fifty-seven surface sediment samples were collected from the coast of southwest Taiwan and analyzed for polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Concentrations of total PAHs (28 PAH compounds) ranged from 15 to 907 ng g⁻¹ dry weight. Diagnostic ratios showed that PAHs in the sediments of the Gaoping estuary were predominantly of petroleum origin, whereas sediments from the Kaohsiung coast contained principally combustion-derived PAHs. Principal component analysis indicated that emissions from automobiles and coal burning were the main sources of combustion-derived PAHs. The relatively high ratios of perylene/penta-aromatic PAH isomers in sediments from the Tainan coast and some off-shore stations on the Kaohsiung coast suggest a significant diagenetic PAH contribution. The study shows that certain diagnostic ratios are useful and sensitive in delineating the distribution of PAHs from specific sources in southwest Taiwan. The phenanthrene/anthracene ratio is a better indicator than the methylphenanthrenes/phenanthrene ratio for tracing petrogenic PAHs, and the benzo(a)anthracene/chrysene and indeno(1,2,3-c,d)pyrene/benzo(g,h,i)perylene ratios are more specific than the benzo(a)pyrene/benzo(e)pyrene and benzo(b)fluoranthcene/benzo(k)fluoranthcene ratios in distinguishing PAHs from various pyrogenic sources.

近160年来闽浙泥质区游离态脂肪酸的分布特征及其环境指示意义

闽浙泥质区沉积物中的有机质来源复杂,记录着自然气候环境演变和人类活动的大量信息。本研究对该泥质区2站位岩芯中脂类生物标志物——游离态脂肪酸近160年来的分布特征进行对比分析,发现其沉积物样品游离态脂肪酸均以微藻类和细菌等海洋自生生物源为主,陆源高等植物贡献较少。结果进一步表明,东亚季风、黑潮和太平洋十年涛动（PDO）等自然气候环境因素变化主导了海源游离态脂肪酸总量：20世纪明显高于19世纪,20世纪70年代末至90年代初异常发育;长江全流域洪水事件（1998年、1954年和1931年）致使该泥质区陆源游离态脂肪酸异常增加,海源则减少。人类活动则主导了20世纪60年代之后游离态脂肪酸的持续增加,尤以海源增加最为显著;长江三峡大坝建设影响了硅藻的生长。i-C_15：0%指标反演该泥质区的低氧程度20世纪50年代后呈显著增加趋势,80年代中期后进一步加剧。

     

Torsional dynamic response of a large‐diameter pipe pile in viscoelastic saturated soil

An analytical solution is developed in this paper to investigate the dynamic response of a large‐diameter end‐bearing pipe pile subjected to torsional loading in viscoelastic saturated soil. The wave propagation in saturated soil and pile are simulated by Biot's two‐phased linear theory and one‐dimensional elastic theory, respectively. The dynamic equilibrium equations of the outer soil, inner soil, and pile are established. The solutions for the outer and inner soils in frequency domain are obtained by Laplace transform technique and the separation of variables method. Then, the dynamic response of the pile is obtained on the basis of the perfect contacts between the pile and the outer soil as well as the inner soil. The results in this paper are compared with that of a solid pile in elastic saturated soil to verify the validity of the solution. Furthermore, the solution in this paper is compared with the classic plane strain solution to verify the solution further and check the accuracy of the plane strain solution. Numerical results are presented to analyze the vibration characteristics and illustrate the effect of the soil parameters and the geometry size of the pile on the complex impedance and velocity admittance of the pile head. Finally, the displacement of the soil at different depth and frequency is analyzed. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

Tag-encoded pyrosequencing analysis of bacterial diversity within different alpine grassland ecosystems of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau,China

The Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is sensitive to climate change, with ecosystems that are important with respect to scientific research. Here high-throughput DNA pyrosequencing was used to assess bacterial diversity within different alpine grassland ecosystems of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China. In total, 34,759 sequences were obtained for the three ecosystems––alpine cold swamp meadow (ASM), alpine cold meadow (AM), alpine sandy grassland (ASG), and 31 phyla and a small number of unclassified bacteria were detected. The bacterial community structures were different for each alpine grassland ecosystem. The Proteobacteria and Acidobacteria were the predominant phyla in all three ecosystems. Besides this, Actinobacteria and Chloroflexi were abundant in ASM, Bacteroidetes, Gemmatimonadetes and Verrucomicrobia were abundant in AM, and Actinobacteria were abundant in ASG. In addition, the functional bacterial genera also differed with each alpine grassland ecosystem. The ASM contained more nitrifying bacteria, methane-oxidizing bacteria and sulfur- and sulfate-reducing bacteria, whereas the ASG ecosystem contained more nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Pyrosequencing provided a greater insight into bacterial diversity within different alpine grassland ecosystems than previously possible, and gave key data for the involvement of bacteria in the protection of alpine grassland ecosystems of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, China.

江南-雪峰隆起北缘海相油气富集主控因素和破坏机制

全球油气巨量富集带主要发育于被动大陆边缘、活动大陆边缘及大陆裂谷系中,而江南-雪峰隆起北缘具有区别于这3类的陆内坳陷斜坡带和古隆起边缘斜坡带的大地构造背景。通过对江南-雪峰隆起北缘（扬子南缘）海相油气陆内巨量富集的主控因素和破坏机制的研究,对比全球油气聚集带（区）发育的主要原因,试图建立海相油气富集和破坏的相关模式。类似于江南-雪峰隆起北缘的陆内坳陷斜坡带与古隆起边缘斜坡带的叠合斜坡带,是大陆块体内一种新的油气富集单元。通过研究,认为下寒武统和下志留统两套优质烃源岩、加里东旋回中-晚期和晚印支期-早燕山旋回早期两期良好的成藏时空匹配关系是海相油气富集的主控因素,而加里东旋回末期和晚印支期-早燕山旋回晚期两个关键破坏期,通过隆升剥蚀、断裂开启和岩浆活动等方式导致了海相油气的破坏。时空匹配的叠合斜坡带既是油气聚集的有利场所,又是油气改造的活跃区域。
