Characterizing the hydraulic properties of unsaturated sand considering various porosities and drying‐wetting paths of the retention curve

Previous studies have shown that water retention curve (WRC) and the hydraulic conductivity vary because of changes of the void ratio or porosity of soil. However, limited documents pointed out the change of hydraulic properties of soil when compacted to different porosities while considering both of the drying and wetting processes of the WRC. This information is sometimes necessary for research like finger flow analysis or the occurrence of wetting and drying cycles as what would be seen in the field. Therefore, this study aims to examine the change of WRC characteristics with varied porosity considering both of the drying and wetting path in WRC by conducting a sand box experiment. Results show that the same type of sand compacted to various porosities have different hydraulic parameters. Hydraulic conductivities generally decrease with reduced porosities; shape parameter α of the van Genuchten equation (1980) linearly decreases with declining porosity and shape parameter n in a reversal manner for the sands of interest whether in the drying process or wetting process. The unsaturated properties of sand are further characterized by inspecting the variations of moisture content, matric suction and vertical displacement of soil body subject to periodic changes of the water level by another sand box experiment. The outcomes suggest that the saturated water content and residual water content are changing during the wetting–drying process, which can be an implication of the changed properties of WRC. The characteristics of volumetric deformation might be varied as well because of the observation of the dissimilar patterns of the changing vertical displacements among each wetting–drying process. Infiltration patterns of the sands also are identified through numerical modelling by introducing a constant infiltration flux from the surface followed by a no‐influx condition. Results indicate that less water accumulates in the sand near the surface for the sand compacted to higher porosity, but water can move deeper. Hydraulic conductivity is found as the prime factor dominating the evolvement of wetting fronts. However, shape parameters of water retention curves also affect the infiltration pattern to some extent. In addition, different sands with similar porosities can have quite different infiltrating characteristics. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

西藏羌塘南部地区的冰海杂砾岩及其成因

青藏高原及邻区广泛分布的漂砾层、杂砾岩、含砾板岩是一种特殊的冰海相沉积岩，称为冰海杂砾岩（Ｉｃｅ－ｓｅａＭｉｘ－ｃｏｎｇｌｏｍｅｒａｔｅｓ）。它们和一起产出的冷水型动物群、耐冷植物群视为这一地区冈瓦纳相最典型的标志，代表着冈瓦纳大陆上塔尔切尔（Ｔａｌｃｈｉｒ）冰期所影响的时间和空间。除“标准型”冰海杂砾岩外，羌塘腹地发现了蛇绿质和钙质冰海杂砾岩。这两种冰海杂砾岩的发现，不但丰富了冰海杂砾岩的家族成员，同时也为冰海沉积、物质来源问题、冈瓦纳大陆北界及特提斯演化研究提供了新的信息。经研究，冰海杂砾岩中的砾石来自印度半岛──冈瓦纳大陆本体，以冰筏为载体融冰落石成因。     

粤西北庞西垌银(金)矿床控矿断裂特征与断裂控矿规律

庞西垌银(金)矿床是粤西北地区构造蚀变岩型银(金)矿床的典型代表之一.矿床产出受前寒武系及下古生界混合片麻岩与燕山晚期花岗岩之间的接触带断裂构造控制,矿体严格产于断裂带内部,呈脉状、透镜状.研究表明,控矿断裂的形态、产状变化对矿体空间定位有明显的控制作用,多组控矿断裂的交叉复合是矿体加大变厚的直接原因.矿体产出与断裂构造内部特定的断裂构造岩、蚀变岩及其分带有关.     

A spatial perspective for predicting enrollment in a regional pharmacy school

Having the ability to predict enrollment is an important task for any school’s recruiting team. The purpose of this study was to identify significant factors that can be used to predict the spatial distribution of enrollments. As a case study, we used East Tennessee State University (ETSU) pharmacy school, a regional pharmacy school located in the Appalachian Mountains. Through the application of a negative binomial regression model, we found that the most important indicators of enrollment volume for the ETSU pharmacy school were Euclidean distance, probability (based on competing pharmacy schools’ prestige, driving distance between schools and home and tuition costs), and the natural barrier of the Appalachian Mountains. Using these factors, together with other control variables, we successfully predicted the spatial distribution of enrollments for ETSU pharmacy school. Interestingly, gender also surfaced as a variable for predicting the pharmacy school’s enrollment. We found female students are more sensitive to the geographic proximity of home to school.

North Pacific sea ice cover, a predictor for the Western North Pacific typhoon frequency?

The relationship between the sea ice cover in the North Pacific and the typhoon frequency has been studied in this paper. It follows that the index for the sea ice cover in the North Pacific (ISA) both in December-January-February (DJF) and in March-April-May (MAM) is negatively correlated with annual typhoon number over the western North Pacific (TNWNP) during 1965―2004, with correlation coeffi-cients of -0.42 and -0.49 respectively (above 99% significant level). Large sea ice cover in the North Pacific tends to decrease TNWNP. Positive ISA (MAM) is associated with the tropical circulation and SST anomalies in the North Pacific, which may lead to unfavorable dynamic and thermal conditions for typhoon genesis over WNP from June to October (JJASO). The variability of the atmospheric circula-tion over the North Pacific, associated with the ISA anomaly in MAM is connected to the tropical at-mospheric circulation variability in MAM via the teleconnection wave train. Besides, as the tropical circulation has strong seasonal persistency from the MAM to JJASO, thus, the ISA in MAM-related variability of the tropical atmospheric circulation as well as the SST can affect the typhoon activity over the western North Pacific.
