Orbits of Comets C/1845 L1 (Great June Comet) and C/1846 D1 (de Vico)

Orbits are calculated for Comet C/1845 L1 (the Great June Comet) and C/1846 D1 (de Vico), the former based on 157 observations in right ascension and 152 in declination and the latter on 10 and 9, respectively. Both orbits are hyperbolic and statistically distinguishable from parabolas. Statistical tests indicate that the residuals are random and thus the orbits satisfactory. The Great June Comet is in no way associated with the comet Tycho Brahe observed in 1596 (© 2009 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)     

T213L31全球模式的云和对流参数化方案改进试验

针对中国业务中期数值预报模式T213对中雨最级以上的降水预报空报比较明显的问题,文中对此模式预报的降水进行了诊断分析.发现T213模式预报的总降水分布主要是由可分辨尺度降水决定的,且在降水偏多最明显的地区,可分辨尺度的降水即超过或达到了观测的总降水,表明降水空报的主要原因在于可分辨尺度降水偏多.可分辨尺度降水偏多的可能原因有:土壤湿度初始化、云变量的初始化和直接产生降水的云与对流参数化方案存在一定的缺陷.鉴于前两者是目前国际上的难点,文中针对第3个方面的可能原因进行了分析和相应的改进.包括在对流方案之前增加一次云方案的调用;对流参数化办案的闭合由"动力型"改为对流有效化能调整闭合;更复杂的对流触发机制;改进冰沉降和降水通量计算.改进的主要目的是使对流参数化方案更活跃,从而减少格点尺度对流的发生.采用改进的方案,进行了敏感性试验和2005年夏季的连续滚动同化预报试验,并与中国区域400个标准站的降水观测和GPCP的全球降水观测进行了比较.结果表明,改进的方案无论是对中国区域还是全球夏季平均的降水分布预报都好于业务,但四川省和赤道东太平洋降水偏多的问题依然存在.中国区域的降水统计检验还表明,除小雨外,其他量级在大部分时效七降水的Ts评分增加,预报偏差降低.

An assessment on the use of Terra ASTER L3A data in landslide susceptibility mapping

The main purpose of the present study is to evaluate the potential use of Terra ASTER data—the L3A DEM and its derivatives in landslide susceptibility mapping. For the purpose, an appropriate application site from the Western Black Sea region of Turkey—the Kelemen catchment area was selected. During the analyses, a two-stage comparative evaluation was carried out. In the first stage, the differences between the DEMs obtained from Terra ASTER L3A data and the conventional topographic data; and their first and second derivatives were investigated. Subsequently, different susceptibility maps were produced by using the DEMs and the topographic attributes obtained from both source of data in addition to the spectral information acquired from satellite sensor. According to the results of the comparative evaluations, a strong correlation between Terra ASTER L3A DEM and the conventional topographic data was obtained. However, depending on the increment of the degree of the derivative, an evident decrease in the spatial correlations was observed. On the contrary, the final model performance, prediction capacity, and the spatial performance statistics for the landslide susceptibility maps produced by using both source of data were found as very high and close to each other.     

L1范估计的巴尔达型检验及其可靠性

根据残差与真误差的Bahadur型关系,L1范估计中, 粗差几乎完全反映到相应的残差上,这就是L1范估计能正确定位粗差的原因.对L2范估计,粗差只是部分地反应到相应残差上,由此会导致粗差误判.根据L1范估计的残差及其方差, 构造了L1范估计的巴尔达检验统计量, 并讨论了L1范估计的可靠性.与L2范估计的可靠性比较,L1范估计的可靠性受多余观测的影响小.     

基于数码照片的狼毒盖度估算

采用数码相机拍照法对狼毒盖度进行了研究。选择过绿特征区分绿色植被和非绿色植被,结合亮度特征和面积阈值从非绿色植被中自动提取出狼毒花,并提出一种基于行程标记的孔洞填充算法对狼毒花中的孔洞进行了填充。选取10张照片对提取结果进行精度评价,Kappa系数为0.80,结果发现:对狼毒茎叶和牧草之间,不宜采用过绿特征进行区分;在HLS色彩空间下,根据色调特征自动提取狼毒茎叶效果一般;对20张照片中的狼毒花的面积和茎叶面积进行回归分析,发现二者表现出了很好的线性关系;根据回归模型计算茎叶面积效果较好;为了得到更准确的狼毒茎叶面积,获取照片时最好处于狼毒的盛花期。     

The Braunschweig meteorite − a recent L6 chondrite fall in Germany

On April 23rd 2013 at 2:07 a.m., a 1.3 kg meteorite fell in the Braunschweig suburb Melverode (52° 13′ 32.19″ N. 10° 31′ 11.60″ E). Its estimated velocity was 250 km/h and it formed an impact pit in the concrete fall site with a diameter of 7 cm and a depth of 3 cm. Radial dust striae are present around the impact pit. As a result of the impact, the meteorite disintegrated into several hundred fragments with masses up to 214 g. The meteorite is a typical L6 chondrite, moderately shocked (S4) – but with a remarkably high porosity (up to 20 vol%). The meteorite was ejected from its parent body as an object with a radius of about 10–15 cm (15–50 kg). The U,Th-He gas retention age of ∼550 Ma overlaps with the main impact event on the L-chondrite parent body ∼470 Ma ago that is recorded by many shocked L chondrites. The preferred cosmic-ray exposure age derived from production of radionuclides and noble gas isotopes is (6.0 ± 1.3) Ma.     

Discontinuous Data 3D/4D Variation Fusion Based on the Constraint of L1 Norm Regularization Term

Classical 3D/4D variation fusion is based on the theory that error follows Gaussian distribution. When using minimization iteration, the gradient of objective function is involved, and the solution of which requires the continuity of data. This paper adopted the extended classical 3D/4D variation fusion method, and explicitly applied the prior knowledge, which was based on L1-norm, as regularization constraint to the classical variation fusion method. Original data was firstly projected into the wavelet domain during the implementation process, and new fusion model was adopted for data fusion in wavelet space, then inverse wavelet transform was used to project the result to the observation space. Ideal experiment was carried out by using linear advection-diffusion equation as four-dimensional prediction model, which made a hypothesis of the discontinuity with the data between background and observation, and that meant the derivatives between left and right were not equal on some points. The result of the experiment showed that the method adopted here was practicable. A further research was also done for multi-source precipitation fusion. Firstly, CMORPH inversion precipitation data were corrected through PDF (Probability Density Function, PDF) matching method based on GAMMA fitting function. Then corrected data was fused with the observation one. By comparison with the reference field, the result showed that this method can keep some outliers better, which might represent certain weather phenomenon. The L1-norm regularization variation fusion in this paper provided a possible way to deal with discrete data, especially for jump point.

A Ti L-edge X-ray absorption study of Ti-silicate glasses

 A series of titanium silicate glasses along the composition joins SiO₂–TiO₂, Na₂SiO₃–TiO₂, K₂SiO₃–TiO₂, and CaSiO₃–TiO₂ have been examined using titanium (Ti) L-edge X-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES). XANES spectra were collected at the Canadian Synchrotron Radiation Facility (CSRF), University of Wisconsin, Madison, using the Spherical Grating Monochromator (SGM) beamline. Glass spectra were compared with spectra obtained from crystalline analogues with differing Ti coordination environments: β_rBa₂TiO₄ (^[4]Ti); fresnoite (^[5]Ti); and rutile and anatase (^[6]Ti). The Ti L-edge data indicate that for homogeneous TiO₂–SiO₂ glasses Ti coordination is ^[5]Ti at TiO₂ contents below 3.6 wt% but predominantly ^[4]Ti with some ^[5]Ti present above this content. There is no evidence for ^[6]Ti. For the Na₂ O-containing glasses the L-edge data indicate that Ti is ^[4]Ti with some ^[5]Ti at low TiO₂ contents, becomes a mix of ^[4]Ti and ^[5]Ti with increasing TiO₂ content, but is exclusively ^[5]Ti by 14.3 wt% TiO₂. The K₂O composition glasses exhibit similar behavior but contain a greater proportion of ^[4]Ti and less ^[5]Ti than the equivalent Na₂O-bearing glasses. These findings are consistent with previous Raman and XANES pre-edge studies. Alkaline-earth-containing glasses behave somewhat differently, with ^[5]Ti occurring in low TiO₂ content glasses, becoming a mix of ^[4]Ti and ^[5]Ti, and then gradually changing to predominantly ^[4]Ti at higher TiO₂ compositions. Finally, we have obtained data for a fresnoite composition (Ba₂TiSi₂O₈) glass. Previous pre-edge and Raman data had suggested that this composition glass contained ^[5]Ti; however, our Ti L-edge data indicate that Ti is almost exclusively ^[4]Ti, although some ^[5]Ti may also be present.
