Aequorea taiwanensis n. sp. (Hydrozoa, Leptomedusae) and mtCOI sequence analysis for the genus Aequorea

Aequorea taiwanensis, a new hydrozoan species from the Taiwan Strait was described using morphological and molecular characteristics. Both morphological and mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I (mtCOI) data supported A. taiwanensis n. sp. as a valid species. Sequence divergence and genetic distance of A. taiwanensis n. sp., A. papillata and A. conica were analysed based on the mtCOI gene sequences. The mtCOI sequences from these three species of the genus Aequorea showed high variation frequency, with sequence divergences ranging from 9.10% to 11.9%, and pairwise genetic distances ranging from 0.097 to 0.130. MtCOI sequence analysis provided diagnostic molecular systematic characteristics for accurate identification and discrimination of the species of Aequorea or their populations, and will be used to resolve evolutionary relationships among them.It was suggested that 10%—20% pairwise mtCOI sequence differences indicated the specieslevel divergence among congeneric species in the Hydromedusae.     

Report of Prionospio complex (Annelida: Polychaeta: Spionidae) from China's waters, with description of a new species

Nine species of Prionospio complex are recorded from China’s waters, including one new species and six newly recorded species. Prionospio (Prionospio) pacifica sp. nov., is characterized by having first and forth pairs of branchiae pinnate, second and third pairs of apinnate, ventral crest on Setiger 9 and dorsal crests on Setigers 10—25. Apoprionospio kirrae (Wilson, 1990), Prionospio (Aquilaspio) convexa Imajima, 1990, Prionospio (Minuspio) multibranchiata Berkeley, 1927, Prionospio (Prionospio) bocki Sderstrm, 1920, Prionospio (Prionospio) dubia Maciolek, 1985 and Prionospio (Prionospio) paradisea Imajima, 1990 are recorded for the first time from China’s waters.

油气田勘探开发阶段高分辨率零偏移距VSP技术

从零偏移距VSP资料采集、处理和解释方面,探讨了当前油气田勘探开发阶段高分辨率零偏移距VSP技术发展的内容和特征。这些特征主要是：得到高分辨率的VSP资料,不仅能对比厚层,而且能对比小层或薄储层;利用多波,不仅同时利用下行和上行波,而且同时利用纵波和转换横波;提取动力学参数,不仅给出时间深度标尺和走廊叠加层位标尺,而且给出振幅、频率、Q值、子波、纵横波速度比、泊松比、弹性参数等标尺;直接探测岩性和油气,不仅对比、控制、约束地震层位的反演,而且识别不同类型的储层,并为井地联合的储层含油气性反演提供控制和约束条件。     

Thickness distribution and extent of sea ice and snow in Prydz Bay and surrounding waters observed in 2012/2013 austral summer

Three ship-based observational campaigns were conducted to survey sea ice and snow in Prydz Bay and the surrounding waters(64.40°S–69.40°S, 76.11°E–81.29°E) from 28 November 2012 to 3 February 2013. In this paper, we present the sea ice extent and its variation, and the ice and snow thickness distributions and their variations with time in the observed zone. In the pack ice zone, the southern edge of the pack ice changed little, whereas the northern edge retreated significantly during the two earlier observation periods. Compared with the pack ice, the fast ice exhibited a significantly slower variation in extent with its northernmost edge retreating southwards by 6.7 km at a rate of 0.37 km?d-1. Generally, ice showed an increment in thickness with increasing latitude from the end of November to the middle of December. Ice and snow thickness followed an approximate normal distribution during the two earlier observations(79.7±28.9 cm, 79.1±19.1 cm for ice thickness, and 11.6±6.1 cm, 9.6±3.4 cm for snow thickness, respectively), and the distribution tended to be more concentrated in mid-December than in late November. The expected value of ice thickness decreased by 0.6 cm, whereas that of snow thickness decreased by 2 cm from 28 November to 18 December 2012. Ice thickness distribution showed no obvious regularity between 31 January and 3 February, 2013.     

中科院启动罗布泊历史上最大规模科考

神秘的罗布泊百年来一直吸引着探险家的好奇。20世纪初,瑞典探险家斯文·赫定在《亚洲腹地探险8年》一书中写过：“这里使我惊讶,罗布泊像座仙湖,水面像镜子一样。”然而,这片被斯文·赫定赞誉过的水域在20世纪完全消失,罗布泊的环境在几十年间迅速恶化,成为“死亡之海”,上世纪80年代两位著名的探险家彭加木和余纯顺就接连在罗布泊遇难。

顾及潮汐变化的动态可航水域表示模型及方法研究

自20个世纪90年代末起,GIS技术开始得到广泛的应用。随着应用领域的不断扩展和相关研究的日益深入,GIS技术的发展出现了新的趋势:时间被引入到空间分析中来,随之而产生了TGIS,时间的引入为GIS技术的发展注入了新的活力。本文所研究的就是TGIS技术在近岸海上航行中的应用问题:以电子海图显示系统为平台,在引入潮汐等随时间变化较为显著且影响较大的相关要素的前提下,通过建立实时水深模型、动态等深线勾绘模型和区域生成模型等与时间要素密切相关的数学模型,实现舰船可航水域表示模型的动态实时快速构建。
