論来自震源上方分界面的二次地震波的干涉現象

空气或風化了的地表层具有較小的波阻抗,其下則为具有較高波阻抗的致密介質,因而地表面或低速带的底面是两个波阻抗数值相差悬殊的介質的分界面。当地震波入射到这样的一个分界面上时,就有可能产生反射波。这种情况在天然地震（此时,首次的反射系来自地表面）以及勘探地震的实际工作中是会碰到的。     

反射法地震勘探中组合爆炸研究

一引言最近几年来,地震勘探中的组合爆炸方法,已获得进一步的改进与发展,井开始较广泛地在实际生产中应用。组合爆炸方法在原理上与混波器及检波器组合有很多相似之处,它们都是利用有效波波前与干扰波波前的传播方向不同来区分有效波的。但是,同混波器及检波器组     

Maximum precipitation for different short-term intervals

Summary A time series and extreme value analysis of maximum precipitation for distinct time intervals from 10 minutes to 1 day have been deduced for the observatory Zagreb-Gri ( = 45°49 and = 15°59,H _s = 157 m) for the period between 1908 and 1985. The Spearman rank correlation test revealed that the short-term precipitation maxima series for the time intervals of 10 to 30 minutes and 8 to 24 hours indicate no significant trend for the 95 percent probability level. The 40-minute to 4-hour precipitation maxima exhibited an increaese in recent time. Annual maximumt-minute precipitation was estimated using the Gumbel distribution for sets of data gradually prolonged with 10-year steps towards the past. The ratios (q) of maximum precipitation estimates for the shorter periods and of estimates for the reference period (1908–1985) have been calculated. Their positions according to the confidence interval on the reference estimates were determined. Confident extreme value estimates could be obtained using at least the 50–60 year data series.With 3 Figures

Numerical modeling of the development of southeastern Red Sea continental margin

The Red Sea continental margin (RSCM) corresponds to a wide hinge zone between Red Sea and Arabian plate. This margin has been studied through geological and geophysical observations primarily in regard to the evolution of Red Sea rift. This margin is characterized by occurrence of thin sediments, significant onshore uplift, tectonic subsidence of the offshore sedimentary basin, active faulting and seismicity. Studies indicate that sedimentary sequences of the margin are deformed by faults and folds resulti...     

An englacial image and water pathways of the Fourcade glacier on King George Island, Antarctic Peninsula, inferred from ground-penetrating radar

The distribution of small fractures and water content of the Fourcade glacier on King George Island, Antarctica, was investigated in November 2006 and December 2007 by two ground-based (470-and 490-m-long profiles) and one helicopter-borne (470-m-long profile) ground-penetrating radar (GPR) surveys using 50-, 100-, and 500-MHz antennas. Radar images in the pre-migrated GPR sections are characterized by a smooth ice surface and irregular bed topography, numerous diffraction hyperbolas in the ice and at the g...     

Molecular abundances in carbon-rich circumstellar envelopes

Millimetre observations of three southern carbon stars, IRAS 07454-7112, IRAS 15082-4808 and IRAS 15194-5115 detected 14 molecular species and some of their isotopomers. The¹²C/¹³C ratio was found to vary between sources.     

Unusually Broadened Spectral Profiles Observed in Solar Prominences

After surveying the spectra of 39 prominences observed by the Multichannel Infrared Solar Spectrograph at Purple Mountain Observatory and the 25 cm coronagraph at the Norikura Solar Observatory, we found that about 28% of them show small spatial scale (6"- 8") and short time scale (tens of seconds to a few minutes), unusual large broadening and large shift velocities in spectral lines including Hα, Hβ, Hε, Ca Ⅱ H, Ca Ⅱ K, Ca2Ⅱ 8542 A, He Ⅰ D3 and HeⅠ 10830 A. We present in detail two typical events observed respectively on 2002 May 27 and 1981 August 2. The full-width at half maximum of the widest profile of the 2001 prominence is 1.8 A for Ha and 2.9 A for He I 10830 A, while that of the 1981 prominence is 5.3 A for Hβ, 3.6 A for Ca Ⅱ K, 4.0 A for Ca Ⅱ H and 2.8 A for He Ⅰ D3. Such broadenings generally occur at a level of several-thousand kilometres above the chromosphere. Further, most of these prominences manifest a rotation of (0.4-1.35) ×10-2 rad s-1 pointing to the Sun and large line     

ON CONFIDENCE INTERVALS FOR THE PRODUCT OF THREE MEANS OF THREE NORMALEY DISTRIBUTED POPULATIONS

In many environmental applications,such as exposure assessment and risk modelling,the desiredestimate is a random variable computed as the product of three independently distributed randomvariables.These variables may not necessarily have the same mean and variance.The method for findingthe 100(1-α)% confidence interval for the mean of the product random variable has been proposed bysome practitioners as the product of the 100(1-α)% confidence interval of the three means.In this paperwe show that the distribution of the product of three independent normal random variables is not normal.We find the mean and variance of the product distribution.Further,we show that although the meanof the product is equal to the product of the means,the product of the three confidence intervals is nota good approximation of the confidence intervals for the mean of the product variable.The confidenceinterval of the mean of the product variable may be estimated by computer simulation.An algorithmfor estimating the confidence interval for the mean of the product random variable is given.The programimplementing this algorithm is given as an appendix.
