地球物理测井数据格式及面向对象的数据读取

在进行地球物理测井数据处理或解释软件开发时,只有知道所处理的测井数据的格式,才能正确地进行读取、格式转换、数据处理以及绘图等工作。在对ECLIPS 5700数控测井系统XTF文件格式分析的基础上,基于内存映射文件技术,采用面向对象的方法创建了XTF文件数据读取类,实现了大数据量XTF文件数据的快速读取,也可为其它格式测井数据的格式转换和数据处理提供技术参考。     

针对MODIS数据的大气水汽含量反演及31和32波段透过率计算

 针对MODIS的波段特征,首先,用近红外波段反演大气水汽含量; 然后,通过LOWTRAN模拟大气水汽含量与MODIS 31和32热红 外波段透过率的统计关系; 最后,计算31和32波段的透过率。该方法克服了以往一景图像只用1个透过率的局限性,使得透过率的求 算精确到每1个像元,同时保证参数获取的实时性。     

Methodological Development of the Conditional Sampling Method. Part II: Quality Control Criteria of Relaxed Eddy Accumulation Flux Measurements

Determination of biosphere–atmosphere exchanges requires accurate quantification of the turbulent fluxes of energy and of a wide variety of trace gases. Relaxed Eddy Accumulation (REA) is a method that has received increasing attention in recent years, because it does not require any rapid sensor for the scalar measurements as the Eddy Correlation method (EC) does. As in all micrometeorological studies, REA measurements in the atmospheric surface layer are valid under some restrictive conditions so as to be representative of a specific ecosystem. These conditions are the homogeneity of the underlying surface, stationary and horizontally homogeneous turbulence. For most experiments these conditions are not fully satisfied. Data uncertainties can also be related to not fulfilling the method principles or to the technical characteristics of the REA system itself. In order to assess REA measurement quality, a methodological approach of data analysis is developed in this study. This methodological analysis is based on the establishment of criteria for data quality control. A set of them, deduced from the mean and turbulent flow, are called ‘Dynamic criteria’ and are designated to control the stationarity and homogeneity of the w function and the validation of Taylor’s hypothesis. A second set (‘REA operational criteria’) is designed to check the sampling process and, more precisely, the homogeneity of the negative and positive selection process throughout the sampling period. A third set of criteria (‘Chemical scalar criteria’) concerns the scalar measurements. Results of the criteria application to data measured at two different experimental sites are also presented. Cut-off limits of criteria are defined based on their statistical distribution and shown to be specific for each site. Strictness of each criterion, defined by the percentage of flagged samples, is analysed in conjunction with the meteorological conditions and atmospheric stability. It is found that flagged samples mainly correspond to neutral and stable nocturnal conditions. During daytime, nearly free convection conditions can also yield poor quality data.     

二维CCD图象数据压缩

本文着重指出了在今后处理大面积CCD图象数据过程中,所将面临的数据存贮困难问题.本文提出了一种有效的不丢失天文信息的压缩CCD图象数据的方法,对银纬b=-60°的一个天区的试验表明,压缩后的图象数据仅为原图象数据的1/30左右,并且可以十分方便地进行图象再现及再处理。在压缩数据过程中,我们在剑桥APM底片扫描机参数化施密特照相底片的基础上,重新安排了CCD图象上天体的对应参数,并视天体的大小及形状,有效地提取保存了天体周围矩阵信息.

On ensemble representation of the observation-error covariance in the Ensemble Kalman Filter

Evensen (2003) presents a modification of the Ensemble Kalman Filter (EnKF), in which the observation-error and background-error covariance matrices are both represented by ensembles, in contrast to the usual practice, where only the background error is so represented. It is shown that this modification can cause the ensemble to collapse to a single member, in the common situation where the number of observations is more than twice the number of ensemble members, and to be rank-deficient when the number of observations is greater than or equal to the ensemble size. It is also shown that some further modifications to the scheme, presented by Evensen as offering numerical efficiencies, can prevent this collapse. However, these latter modifications are shown in some simple numerical examples to require tuning to produce acceptable results, which are nevertheless inferior to those of the standard EnKF.Acknowledgements The author acknowledges useful discussions with Peter Steinle, and other participants at the EnKF workshop held in BMRC in November, 2003.
