The study area is located in Three Gorges Reservoir region, China. Over 200 landslides have been monitored over a number of
years with their behavior being compared to the effective rainfall database for the study area. Analysis of the available
data indicates that the occurrences of landslides in this region are controlled by rainfall, whose intensity and rainfall
processes are the most important dynamic factors in determining the stability of slopes. Therefore, the relationship between
rainfall and the movement of typical landslides has been specifically analyzed for the Xintan landslides and the large Huangya
landslide by using the loading/unloading response ratio parameter of rainfall. The result of this study indicates that the
mutation of the loading/unloading response ratio of rainfall of the Xintan landslide and the large Huangya landslide in the
Three Gorges Reservoir region, China occurred just before their destabilization, which shows that the loading/unloading response
ratio of rainfall and its changing feature can be taken as a precursor for the landslides induced by rainfall. 相似文献
The dynamics of desertification in the Horqin Sandy Land between 2000 and 2005 were analyzed using Landsat TM/ETM images and
the data-processing function of geographical information software. The results showed that the extent of desertified land
decreased at a rate of slightly more than 0.1 km2 year−1, from 22,423.1 km2 in 2000 to 22,422.4 km2 in 2005, indicating that desertification has been controlled in this area and that desert areas may be approaching a steady
state. The dynamics of desertification differed among land types. Desertification decreased most obviously in areas of previous
desert land. The area in which desertification was ameliorated was higher than the area that underwent further degradation,
but non-desertified land (113.3 km2) deteriorated at a rate of 22.7 km2 year−1 during this period. This significant change requires careful attention by managers in the study area. 相似文献
Devonian strata in the Guizhong region, Guangxi, China consist mainly of marine deposition carbonates (limestones and dolomites) as well as restricted clastic rocks. The strata thickness is measured as 2041m and classified into 14 formations. An integrated field geological, petrographic, sedimentological, palaeobiological, and geochemical study of these strata reveals that the depositional paleoenvironments were carbonate tidal flat, restricted platform, open platform, shelf, platform margin slop, and algal herm. The total organic carbon (TOC) of sedimentary organic matter ranges between 0.07% and 1.96% with average of 0.21%. The organic matter types are Type I and Type III. The vitrinite reflectance (R0) of kerogen ranges between 0.99% and 2.03%, indicating the maturated and highly maturated stages. The analytical results of the representative samples collected from shelf and subtidal facies show that the differences of organic matter type and biological diagnostic compounds are related to the types of source rocks deposited in different paleoenvironments.
By a natural nonextensive generalization of the conservation of energy in the q-kinetic theory, we study the nonextensivity and the power-law distributions for the many-body systems with the self-gravitating
long-range interactions. It is shown that the power-law distributions describe the long-range nature of the interactions and
the non-local correlations within the self-gravitating system with the inhomogeneous velocity dispersion. A relation is established
between the nonextensive parameter q≠1 and the measurable quantities of the self-gravitating system: the velocity dispersion and the mass density. Correspondingly,
the nonextensive parameter q can be uniquely determined from the microscopic dynamical equation and thus the physical interpretation of q different from unity can be clearly presented. We derive a nonlinear differential equation for the radial density dependence
of the self-gravitating system with the inhomogeneous velocity dispersion, which can correctly describe the density distribution
for the dark matter in the above physical situation. We also apply this q-kinetic approach to analyze the nonextensivity of self-gravitating collisionless systems and self-gravitating gaseous dynamical
systems, giving the power-law distributions the clear physical meaning.
