上空有云流流出的台风的强度变化

一、导言 Erickson 和 Winston,(1972)第一次从气象卫星云图上观测到从西北太平洋的一个命名热带气旋(以下不管其强度,一概称为台风)的中心偶尔有范围很大的一股含有中云和高云的云流向东北方流出。作者们指出,这种云流是由大量的热带的热量和水汽输送到西风带里去造成的。Ramage(1974)研究了中国南海1970年10月的3个台风,得到的结论是:高空云流外流是由于在对流层上层有西风槽逼近而在槽前又有热通量的辐散所引起的。他还发现,在槽线以东的涡度平流会增强台风上空的质量辐散,而在云流形成时,风速也随之加大。他的这个发现与Riehl(1972)的结论是一致的,     

太古宙深变质区中水平的简单剪切构造

当晚期变形作用的结果被消除时,太古宙高级变质片麻岩—混合岩型地区,包括以近水平叶理和伏褶皱为主的广大地区。这种构造类型的例子在北大西洋太古宙克拉通地区以及经下元古代改造作用的各邻接区是常见的。在苏格兰西北部的Badcallian(早Scourian)、西格陵兰的戈德萨普克拉通、拉布拉多东部的太古宙片麻杂岩和西格陵兰北部的Rinkian,也有这方面的好例子。其它太古宙地区显示了类似的结果。

西澳大利亚较老的前寒武纪地质年代学

在西澳大利亚,太古宙这个名词一般应用在早于2400Ma的岩层,这与最近由前寒武地层分会提出的2500Ma界线是有一定偏差的(James,《前寒武纪研究》,7,193—204页:1978)。无论应用那个标准,西澳大利亚地盾的二个最老部分—皮尔巴拉(Pilbara)和伊尔冈地块—在太古宙期间就已清楚确立。上述两个地块均以典型的绿岩—花岗岩类为主所组成,其中许多花岗岩类深成岩由含高比例火山岩同时形成的绿岩带所包

Use of Surface Observations to Estimate Upper Air Humidity for the Objective Analysis of Relative Humidity over Indian Region

In the present study objective analyses of relative humidity (RH) at surface and at the levels of 850,700 and 500 hPa have been made using Gandin’s (1963) optimum interpolation scheme. As the horizontal resolution of the radiosonde stations is rather inadequate for upper air humidity analysis, a scheme has been developed, following Rasmussen (1982) to estimate the upper air RH from the surface observations like surface RH, present weather and cloud cover. The relative humidities at the levels 850, 700 and 500 hPa were related to the surface observations through three separate regression relations. The RH values at 850, 700 and 500 hPa levels were estimated from the surface RH, cloud coverage and present weather using the above regression relations and subsequently the objective analyses at 00 GMT for the period from 4 July to 8 July 1979, were made using these estimated data along with the observed radiosonde data. Objective analyses were also made for the same period using only the radiosonde data for comparison to study the impact of those estimated data. Root mean square errors were computed for all the five days by interpolating RH at the observing stations from the objectively analysed field and comparing them with the actually observed RH to examine how best the analyses (with and without estimated data) fitted the observations. Lastly they were compared with satellite cloud pictures. This study shows that the estimated upper air RH values have positive impact on the analysis of upper air RH and could be used over radiosonde date sparse region and even over oceanic regions.     

Substrate selection and seasonal variation in abundance and size composition of isopod Lirceus fontinalis in Ontario streams, Canada

The abundance and size composition of stream isopods Lirceus fontinalis were investigated from April 2001 to August 2002 in 3 streams in southern Ontario, Canada. Effects of current speed was released from the analysis by choosing slow flowing water. The effects of substrate, season and water depth on the abundance, distribution and size composition of the isopods were analyzed. It was found that substrate and season influence isopods the most. The rocky substrate with attached filamentous macro-algae contains an isopod abundance 7.05 times that of bare rock substrate and 14.6 times that of fine-sand and mud substrate. There was a large variation with respect to seasonality in both abundance and size composition of the isopods, with the highest abundance occurring in summer and the lowest in winter and spring; individual isopods also tend to be larger in the winter and spring. In all substrates, shallow areas tend to support higher densities of isopods than deeper areas.     

Modelling of sediment movement in the surf and swash zones

Under the action of marine currents, non-cohesive sediments evolve by bed-load, by saltation or suspension depending on their granulometry. Several authors have considered that the movement of sediment...     

Latin hypercube approach to estimate uncertainty in ground water vulnerability

A methodology is proposed to quantify prediction uncertainty associated with ground water vulnerability models that were developed through an approach that coupled multivariate logistic regression with a geographic information system (GIS). This method uses Latin hypercube sampling (LHS) to illustrate the propagation of input error and estimate uncertainty associated with the logistic regression predictions of ground water vulnerability. Central to the proposed method is the assumption that prediction uncertainty in ground water vulnerability models is a function of input error propagation from uncertainty in the estimated logistic regression model coefficients (model error) and the values of explanatory variables represented in the GIS (data error). Input probability distributions that represent both model and data error sources of uncertainty were simultaneously sampled using a Latin hypercube approach with logistic regression calculations of probability of elevated nonpoint source contaminants in ground water. The resulting probability distribution represents the prediction intervals and associated uncertainty of the ground water vulnerability predictions. The method is illustrated through a ground water vulnerability assessment of the High Plains regional aquifer. Results of the LHS simulations reveal significant prediction uncertainties that vary spatially across the regional aquifer. Additionally, the proposed method enables a spatial deconstruction of the prediction uncertainty that can lead to improved prediction of ground water vulnerability.
