蓝色新事

联合国政府间气候变化专门委员会近期在斯德哥尔摩审议并通过了关于气候变化的自然科学基础报告。报告显示,全球变暖证据确凿,北极冰川融化速度已经翻了一倍,海平面上升速度加快。如果温室气体排放有增无减,地球将面临不可想象的灾难。

Sub-seasonal variability of Luzon Strait Transport in a high resolution global model

The Luzon Strait is the main impact pathway of the Kuroshio on the circulation in South China Sea (SCS). Based on the analysis of the 1997–2007 altimeter data and 2005–2006 output data from a high resolution global HYCOM model, the total Luzon Strait Transport (LST) has remarkable subseasonal oscillations with a typical period of 90 to 120 days, and an average value of 1.9 Sv into SCS. Further spectrum analysis shows that the temporal variability of the LST at different depth is remarkable different. In the upper layer (0–300 m), westward inflow has significant seasonal and subseasonal variability. In the bottom layer (below 1 200 m), eastward outflow exhibits remarkable seasonal variability, while subseasonal variability is also clear. In the intermediate layer, the westward inflow is slightly bigger than the eastward outflow, and both of them have obvious seasonal and subseasonal variability. Because the seasonal variation of westward inflow and eastward outflow is opposite, the total transport of intermediate layer exhibits significant 50–150 days variation, without obvious seasonal signals. The westward Rossby waves with a period of 90 to 120 days in the Western Pacific have very clear correlationship with the Luzon Strait Transport, this indicates that the interaction between these westward Rossby waves and Kuroshio might be the possible mechanism of the subseasonal variation of the LST.     

无辜的奶牛和无辜的教授

<正>3月22日,加利福尼亚大学戴维斯分校的一位科学家指出,2006年联合国粮农组织(FAO)发布的题为《畜牧业的巨大阴影》的报告中有错,那份报告就是后来举世闻名的牲畜原罪说,该报告称全球碳排放总量的18%来自畜牧业,并抱怨全球变暖是因为人们吃牛肉太多,而牛打嗝、放屁都是造成温室气体徒增的重要原因。     

新摩尔岛的命运

<正>近日,全球媒体纷纷报导:在孟加拉湾,印度和孟加拉国争夺得不可开交的一座小岛消失了。导致这座岛屿将从地图上抹去的原因并不是两国交兵,也不是地质构造运动,而是不断上升的海平面,正是海水将这座小岛变成了暗礁。这提醒人们,海平面上升造成陆地面积减少,甚至导致社区被淹没并不完全是耸人听闻、故弄玄虚的噱头,全球变暖的后果可能真的很严重。     

Probabilistic Approach of Coastal Defense Against Typhoon Attacks for Nuclear Power Plant

With the global wanning and sea level rising, it is widely recognized that there is an increasing tendency of typhoon occurrence frequency and intensity. The defenses code against typhoon attacks for nuclear power plant should be calibrated because of the increasing threat of typhoon disaster and severe consequences. This paper discusses the probabilistic approach of definitions about "probable maximum typhoon" and "probable maximum storm surge" in nuclear safety regulations of China and has made some design code calibrations by use of a newly proposed Double Layer Nested Multi-objective Probability Model (DLNMPM).

中国海洋生物地球化学过程研究的最新进展

海洋是全球生态系统的重要组成部分,在地球系统中,其与大气、陆地紧密联系在一起,在调节全球气候等方面发挥着举足轻重的作用。全球变化引起的海洋变化十分明显,现在已经能够观测到海洋的大尺度物理、化学和生物特征的变化,其中海洋食物链结构、海岸带富营养化和珊瑚礁退化最为     

当今海洋科学五大热点问题

进入９０年代，一些海洋科技发达国家的海洋调查计划、科学研究项目和国际性学术性讨论会的主题，几乎都集中围绕与人类生存和社会发展密切相关的环境与资源问题。其中最热门的话题可谓：全球变暖、自然灾害、海面上升、生态环境和海洋资源。１全球变暖的趋势科学家普遍认为，当今世界性工业的发展，大量能源的燃耗，向大气层排放超量的ＣＯ２、Ｈ２Ｓ及其他废气每年约５０×１０８ｔ，形成的“温室效应”而引起的全球性增温影响越来越明显。据统计资料表明，从１９５０～１９８５年，全球排放的ＣＯ２、Ｈ２Ｓ、氮氧化物、氯氟烃等物质增加…     

Jason-2高度计电离层GIM误差分析及修正研究

基于Jason-2高度计2015年地球物理数据集(GDR)38个周期太平洋海域的全球电离层图(GIM)电离层校正值和双频校正值的数据,分不同季度和不同纬度区域比较二者的差异,结果表明:GIM值与双频校正值之间存在明显的差异,GIM校正值普遍高于双频校正值,说明GIM高估了电离层路径延迟,GIM校正值与双频校正值的差异与季节和纬度区间有关。用梯度下降法得到GIM值的修正方程,将修正方程应用于2016年Jason-2的全年数据,修正后的GIM值与双频校正值十分接近,在各年份中均具有良好的适用性。在单频高度计不能使用电离层双频校正算法的情况下,可以利用不同季度和不同纬度区域的修正方程对同等高度的高度计GIM值进行修正以达到双频校正值的精度水平。
