Application of Gaussian Weight to Improve Perturbation Features of Convection-Permitting Ensemble Forecast Based on Local Breeding of Growing Modes

Local breeding of growing modes(LBGM) is a method used to generate initial condition perturbation(ICP) for convection-permitting ensemble forecasts. Equal weights(EWs) are usually presumed in LBGM during the localization of ICP, without considering different contributions of the grid points within the local radius. To address this problem, Gaussian weights(GWs) are proposed in this study, which can accommodate the varied influences of the grids inside the local radius on the central grid through a Gaussian function. Specifically, two convection-permitting ensemble forecast experiments based on LBGM with GWs and EWs are compared and analyzed respectively for two squall line cases. The results showed that the use of the GWs intensified the local characteristics of the ICP and made the distribution of the ICP fields more flow-dependent. Kinetic energy spectrum of the ICP indicated that there could be more large-scale information in the ICP by using the GWs. In addition, mesoscale information also improved slightly. For forecast of nonprecipitation variables, GWs improved the relationship between the root-mean-square error and the spread and contributed to the forecasting accuracy of wind, temperature, geopotential height, and humidity. For the precipitation forecast, GWs simulated the precipitation structure successfully and provided better probability forecasting during the evolution of the two squall line processes than the EWs.     

Helium 10830 Å measurements of the Sun

Measurements of the Sun in the near-infrared He i 10830 Å absorption line were performed using the echelle spectrograph with a dispersion of 6.71 mÅ per pixel at the Vacuum Tower Telescope (German Solar Telescopes, Teide Observatory, Izaña, Tenerife, Spain) on May 26, 1993. These measurements were compared with full-disc soft X-ray images of the Sun (Japanese solar satellite Yohkoh), full-disc solar images in H (Big Bear Solar Observatory), full-disc solar images in the He i 10830 Å line (National Solar Observatory, Kitt Peak) and with full-disc microwave solar maps at 37 GHz (Metsähovi Radio Research Station). In the He 10830 Å line the Sun displays a limb darkening similar to that in the visible part of the spectrum. Active regions and H filaments show a strong absorption in the He 10830 Å line, whereas the absorption is weak in coronal holes.     

华南上奥陶统宝塔组天文年代格架及其地质意义

对华南四川盆地及周缘地区的四川省南江县桥亭剖面、重庆市南川区三泉剖面和贵州省习水县良村剖面上奥陶统宝塔组高分辨率磁化率(MS)数据进行了旋回地层学分析,识别出405 ka长偏心率、100 ka短偏心率、30 ka斜率和20 ka岁差沉积旋回,其中偏心率和岁差旋回信号最强。利用405 ka长偏心率旋回进行天文调谐后得出三条剖面宝塔组的沉积时限分别为4.17 Ma、5.64 Ma和5.05 Ma,平均沉积速率分别为7.67 m·Ma-1、4.68 m·Ma-1 和6.37 m·Ma-1,呈现出从北往南沉积时限变长,沉积速率变小的趋势,指示了北部接受沉积时间要比南部更晚,海侵从南向北推进。良村剖面宝塔组中所产牙形石Hamarodus brevirameus带和Protopanderodus insculptus带的延续时限分别为3.62 Ma和1.43 Ma;桥亭剖面三叶虫Niuchangella angustilimbata间隔带、Dislobosaspis xixiangensis延限带和未建带的延续时限分别是2.83 Ma、0.41 Ma和0.81 Ma。     

云南小江断裂东支活动性分析及工程场地稳定性评价

小江断裂延伸长、次生断裂交错分布多,使得区域内重大工程难以避免活动断裂带的影响,因此活动断裂的活动强弱以及场地稳定性是区域重大工程建设面临的主要工程稳定性问题。为了查清活动断裂对公路工程场地的影响,笔者等基于小江断裂地质构造背景,充分利用既有研究成果资料,重点研究区域构造环境和断裂特征,通过地质调绘、物理探测、年代学测试,结合对前人资料的系统梳理,计算分析了小江断裂中段东支活动速率,初步判定断裂活动程度;并综合考虑断裂活动性、地震烈度、岩体特性等因素,对工程场地稳定性进行分级。结果表明,小江断裂东支平均水平位移速率为6.6 mm/a,判定为强活动断裂,区域工程场地稳定性划分为极不稳定区;认为强烈活动性断裂两侧各10 km区域内对工程的影响最为严重,为公路工程场地选址和抗震设计提供了理论和数据支持。

花岗岩风化土与废弃轮胎混合物力学特性研究

废旧轮胎的治理是一个世界性的难题,而将废旧轮胎应用于岩土工程加固中则为其污染治理提供了一个行之有效的手段。为了进一步研究废旧轮胎对土体的加固机制并应用到实际工程中,主要选取了全风化花岗岩砂颗粒和加工后的废旧轮胎（包括颗粒型和长条型）的混合体作为研究对象,通过一系列不同竖向压力下的一维压缩试验,详细研究不同橡胶含量配比、不同形态下的橡胶-砂混合体的受压力学特性,并创新性地探讨了橡胶颗粒对砂颗粒在压缩过程中破碎行为的影响。试验结果表明,所有橡胶-砂混合体在较高压力作用下都能收敛到一条直线,即存在唯一的标准压缩线;随着橡胶含量增加到大于20%,混合物的压缩和卸载回弹量均明显增加,而这种特性不受轮胎颗粒形态的影响。此外,轮胎橡胶含量配比越高,砂颗粒的破碎程度越小,同时,当其中砂颗粒尺寸越小时,整体破碎越少。
