The structure of the equatorial mesosphere at Thumba

The structure of the equatorial mesosphere is being investigated at Thumba by rocket borne ultraviolet absorption photometry as well as by the meteorological M-100 rocket launching programme. Whereas the meteorological M-100 rocket luanching programme has been regular, the UV absorption studies have been few in number and sporadic in nature. In this paper an attempt is made to consolidate the results so far obtained from both these investigations.     

Multiple scattering and energy transfer of seismic waves—Separation of scattering effect from intrinsic attenuation II. Application of the theory to Hindu Kush region

In order to separate the scattering effect from intrinsic attenuation, we need a multiple scattering model for seismic wave propagation in random heterogeneous media. In paper I (Wu, 1985), radiative transfer theory is applied to seismic wave propagation and the energy density distribution (or the average intensity) in space for a point source is formulated in the frequency domain. It is possible to separate the scattering effect and the absorption based on the measured energy density distribution curves. In this paper, the data from digital recordings in the Hindu Kush region are used as an example of application of the theory. We also discuss two approximate solutions of coda envelope in the time domain: the single scattering approximation and the diffusion approximation and discuss the relation with the frequency domain solution. We point out that in only two cases can the apparent attenuation be expressed as an exponential decay form. One is thedark medium case, i.e., whenB ₀0.5, whereB ₀ = _s /( _s + _a ) is the seismic albedo, _s is the scattering coefficient, _a is the absorption coefficient. In this case the absorption is dominant, the apparent attenuationb can be approximated by the coherent wave attenuationb = _s + _a . The other case is thediffuse scattering regime, i.e., whenB ₀0.5 (bright medium) andRL _s ,t _s , whereR andt are the propagation distance and lapse time,L _s and _s are the scattering lengths (mean free path) and scattering time (mean free time), respectively. However, in this case the envelope decays with a rate close to the intrinsic attenuation, while the intensity decreases with distance with a coefficientb d ₀( _s + _a ) d _{s s} , whered ₀ andd _s are the diffusion multipliers (0<d ₀,d _s <1).For the Hindu Kush region, by comparing the theory with data from two digital stations of 53 events distributed up to depths of 350 km, we find that the scattering is not the dominant factor for the measured apparent attenuation ofS waves in the frequency range 2–20 Hz. From the observation on high frequency (f>20 Hz) seismograms, we suggest the existence of a stron-scattering surface layer with fine scale heterogeneities in the crust, at least for this region.     

用潮汐重力仪探测引力吸收效应的可能性

用潮汐重力仪探测引力吸收效应的工作始于本世纪150年代,但至今仍然没有得到证实。一个可能的原因是引力吸收效应比理论预言值小得多。究竟情况如何,还有待更精密的实验。本文首先推导出了引力吸收效应方程及引力定律,结果与Harrison(1963)给出的一致;然后就如下几种情况对用潮汐重力仪探测引力吸收效应的可能性进行了探讨: 1) 利用地球作屏蔽;2) 利用月球作屏蔽;3).利用太阳作屏蔽;4) 利用人造地球卫星的摄动。     

赤潮水体红光波段反射光谱的模拟及形成机理

赤潮水体红光波段反射光谱中"荧光峰"的红移现象一直备受研究者的广泛关注。本文基于前向辐射传输模型,通过2011年7月9日在大连湾海域实测的赤潮水体吸收系数和后向散射系数模拟了弹性散射作用下的反射光谱,发现在未考虑叶绿素荧光的情况下,红光波段仍存在显著的反射峰,且随叶绿素浓度的增加,反射峰出现红移现象;加入叶绿素荧光后,模拟光谱红光波段反射峰的位置与高度出现不同程度的改变,与实测光谱的更接近;对比模拟光谱与实测光谱可确定,红光波段的反射峰由吸收、后向散射以及叶绿素荧光共同控制,而文献中通常提到的"荧光峰"红移实由浮游藻类红光波段的强吸收作用导致,与叶绿素荧光无关,因此反射峰红移的说法更为合理。

Maximum theoretical power absorption of connected floating bodies under motion constraints

In this paper, a mathematical model is presented to evaluate the maximum mean power that can be absorbed by a three-dimensional system of connected floating bodies in waves under a weighted global constraint. The constraint imposed on the motion amplitudes of the system can be used to limit the motions of the bodies in order to make sure that the assumption of linear theory for wave–structure interaction remains valid. The absorbed power of a structure can be considered as the difference between excitation and radiated power without consideration of practical power take off. The solutions for the maximum relative capture widths of rigidly connected two rafts have a good agreement with the calculated ones for the same rafts being seen as a single whole structure. Meanwhile, the results of maximum power absorption of two hinged slender rafts in cuboid shape give a good agreement as well with those by using slender-body approximations. Then dynamics of a hinged two rafts are studied and results show how the maximum efficiency is affected by raft width and restricting the motions.     

海水石油类物质吸收系数遥感化提取算法研究

Establishing the remote sensing algorithm of retrieving the absorption coefficient of seawater petroleum substances is an efficient way to improve the accuracy of retrieving a seawater petroleum concentration using a remote sensing technology. A remote sensing reflectance is a basic physical parameter in water color remote sensing. Apply it to directly retrieve the absorption coefficient of seawater petroleum substances is of potential advantage. The absorption coefficient of waters containing petroleum [ACWCP, a_o(λ)], consists of the absorption coefficient of pure water [ACPW, a_w(λ)], plankton [ACP, a_(ph)(λ)], colored scraps [ACCS, a_(d,g)(λ)], and petroleum substance [ACPS, a_(oil)(λ)]. Among those, ACCS consists of the absorption coefficient of nonalgal particle [ACNP, a_d(λ)] and colored dissolved organic matter [ACCDOM, a_g(λ)]. For waters containing petroleum, the retrieved ACCS using the existing method is a combination absorption coefficient of ACNP,ACCDOM and ACPA [CAC, a_(d,g,oil)(λ)]. Therefore, the principle question is how to extract ACPS from CAC.Through the analysis of the three proportion tests conducted between the year of 2013 and 2015 and the corresponding remote sensing data, an algorithm of retrieving the absorption coefficient of petroleum substances is proposed based on remote sensing reflectance. First of all, ACPS and CAC are retrieved from the reflectance using the quasi-analytical algorithm(QAA), with some parameter modified. Secondly, given the fact that the backscatter coefficient [BC, b_(bp)(555)] of total particles at 555 nm can be obtained completely from the reflectance, the relation between BC and ACNP in petroleum contaminated water can be established. As a result, ACNP can be calculated. Then, combining the remote sensing retrieving algorithm of a_g(440), the method of achieving the spectral slope of the absorption coefficient can be established, from which ACCDOM,can be calculated. Finally, ACPS can be computed as the residual. The accuracy of ACPS based on this algorithm is 86% compared with the in situ measurements.     

Numerical Wave Tank Based on A Conserved Wave-Absorbing Method

Recently the numerical wave tank has become a widely-used tool to study waves as well as wave-structure interactions, and the wave-absorbing method is very important as its effect on the quality of waves generated. The relaxation method and the derived momentum source method are often utilized, however, the damping weight is constant during calculation and repeated trials are required to obtain an acceptable wave-absorbing effect. To address the above- mentioned issues, a conserved wave-absorbing method is developed. The damping weight is determined by solving the mass conservation equation of the absorbing region at every time step. Based on this method, a two-dimensional numerical wave tank is established by using the VB language to simulate various waves by which the validation of this method is evaluated.
