Ground roll attenuation based on an empirical curvelet transform

In the field of seismic exploration, ground roll seriously affects the deep effective reflections from subsurface deep structures. Traditional curvelet transform cannot provide an adaptive basis function to achieve a suboptimal denoised result. In this paper, we propose a method based on empirical curvelet transform (ECT) for ground roll attenuation. Unlike the traditional curvelet transform, this method not only decomposes seismic data into multiscale and multi-directional components, but also provides an adaptive filter bank according to frequency content of seismic data itself. So, ground roll can be separated by using this method. However, as the frequency of reflection and ground roll components are close, we apply singular value decomposition (SVD) in the curvelet domain to differentiate the ground roll and reflection better. Examples of synthetic and field seismic data reveal that the proposed method based ECT performs better than the traditional curvelet method in terms of the suppression of ground roll.     

浙江临安4.2级地震特征及烈度调查

2017年4月12日,浙江省杭州市临安市发生4.2级地震,地震震中附近的潜川镇、河桥镇震感强烈,於潜镇、太阳镇、湍口镇等震感较为明显。在对震区地质构造、震源机制解资料分析的基础上,开展了烈度调查,并绘制了地震烈度图。本次地震震中烈度为Ⅴ度,面积22.6km2,烈度圈长轴方向北东向,与马金-乌镇断层走向一致。

Cloning and phylogenetic analysis of a fatty acid elongase gene from Nannochloropsis oculata CS179

Nannochloropsis oculata CS179, a unicellular marine microalga, is rich in long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LCPUFAs). Elongase and desaturase play a key role in the biosynthesis of PUFAs. A new elongase gene, which encodes 322 amino acids, was identified via RT-PCR and 5′ and 3′ RACE. The sequence of the elongase gene was blast-searched in the NCBI GenBank and showed a similarity to those of the cryptosporidium. But the NJ-tree revealed that the N. oculata CS179 elongase clustered with those of the microalgae Phaeodactylum tricornutum, Ostreococcus tauri and Thalassiosira pseudonana.     

我国东南和华北季风区树轮气候和环境变化研究进展

我国东南和华北季风区的树木年轮学研究已经经历了30多年的风雨历程,取得了显著的成效,总体上可以分为3个阶段。第一阶段为1990年代及之前,主要工作为树轮宽度和树轮化学。树轮宽度研究引入了交叉定年技术,但对树木生长对气候响应的规律认识不明确;树轮化学方面建立了树轮与树下土壤之间金属元素含量的对数线性关系方程,为采用树轮中金属元素恢复环境污染史打下了良好基础。第二阶段为2000年代,树轮宽度研究在东南地区缓慢发展,在华北地区发现树木生长受到水分胁迫;树轮化学方面开始尝试建立污染历史与污染源之间的关系。这段时间一个显著的进展是树轮碳同位素研究的开展,认识到树轮碳同位素包含大气CO₂浓度与气候要素信息。第三阶段为2010年以来,这段时期树轮宽度研究取得了爆发式增长,大量研究发现中低海拔树木生长对冷季温度显著响应、中高海拔对暖季温度显著响应,还有一些样点的树木生长同时受到冷季和暖季温度的影响,东南地区仅有零星点上的树木生长受到水分条件的制约,而华北地区树木生长主要受到水分的胁迫;同时,引入树轮氧同位素的研究工作,氧同位素主要反映暖季的水分条件,对具体过程也给予了较多关注;树轮化学有了一定的发展,但是仍需要开展大量的测试工作,才能解决测试数据的可重复性、元素的横向迁移等污染史重建研究中的关键问题。

     

The changes of three components in coelomic fluid of Urechis unicinctus exposed to different concentrations of sulfide

The changes in heme （associated with hemoglobin）, hemoglobin and hematin in the coelomic fluid of marine worm, Urechis unicinctus, exposed to different concentrations of sulfide, were investigated using biochemical techniques. When exposed to different sulfide concentrations for up to 96 h, the relative amounts of the three components changed in a regular pattern suggesting that the coelomocytes play an important role in the worm＇s tolerance to sulfide. The possible roles of heme compounds in sulfide tolerance of this species are discussed on the basis of our experimental data.     

利用干涉图确定成像质量

从像质的概念出发,导出了像质评定的简单公式。在干涉图的每个选定点上测量条纹间的间隔和角度来计算几何光线的斜率误差,然后把这些角度误差画在一张图纸上用以表示几何点扩散函数的角度大小,可以方便而简洁地评定成像质量,避免了复杂的计算。     

Pollen-based Holocene quantitative temperature reconstruction on the eastern Tibetan Plateau using a comprehensive method framework

Quantitative climate reconstruction on long timescales can provide important insights for understanding the climate variability and providing valuable data for simulations. Unfortunately, the credibility of some attempts was hampered by incomplete reconstruction procedures. We here establish a comprehensive framework resting on high-quality Chinese modern pollen database, including modern pollen data screening, calibration set selection, major climate factor analysis, appropriate model selection, strict statistical assessment of results and ecological interpretation. The application of this framework to three high-resolution pollen records from the eastern Tibetan Plateau allows accurate quantitative inferences of Holocene temperature changes, which is the major control of regional vegetation. The results show that the mean warmest month temperature(MTwa)during the early Holocene was ca. 10.4℃ and reached the highest value at 8.5–6 ka BP(ca. 11℃). The early and mid-Holocene(11–5 ka BP) warmth was followed by 1.2℃ temperature decrease, culminating in the coolest temperatures of the Holocene during the Neoglacial cooling. Superimposing on the general cooling trend, MTwareveals a significant 500-yr periodicity with varying intensities through time, showing that warm(cold) intervals are in phase with solar maxima(minima) periods. This spectral similarity indicates a possible connection of multi-century scale climate fluctuations with solar forcing.
