The soil hydrologic response to forest regrowth: a case study from southwestern Amazonia

As a large and dynamic land‐use category, tropical secondary forests may affect climate, soils, and hydrology in a manner different from primary forests or agricultural areas. We investigated the saturated hydraulic conductivity K_sat of a Kandiudult under different land uses in Rondonia, Brazil. We measured K_sat at four depths (12·5, 20, 30 and 50 cm) under (a) primary forest, (b) a former banana–cacao plantation (SF1), and (c) an abandoned pasture (SF2). At 12·5 cm, all three land uses differ significantly (α = 0·1), but not at the 20 and 30 cm depths. At 50 cm, K_sat was significantly greater in the former pasture than in other land uses. Lateral subsurface flow is expected during intense rainfall (about 30 times per year) at 30 cm depth in SF1 and at 50 cm depth in the forest, whereas the relatively low permeability at shallow 12·5 cm in the SF2 may result not only in lateral subsurface flow, but also saturation overland flow. For modelling purposes, recovering systems seem to have K_sat values distinct from primary forest at shallow depths, whereas at deeper layers (>20 cm) they may be considered similar to forests.

Modelling the effects of land‐use change on water and salt delivery from a catchment affected by dryland salinity in south‐east Australia

A comprehensive framework for the assessment of water and salt balance for large catchments affected by dryland salinity is applied to the Boorowa River catchment (1550 km²), located in south‐eastern Australia. The framework comprised two models, each focusing on a different aspect and operating on a different scale. A quasi‐physical semi‐distributed model CATSALT was used to estimate runoff and salt fluxes from different source areas within the catchment. The effects of land use, climate, topography, soils and geology are included. A groundwater model FLOWTUBE was used to estimate the long‐term effects of land‐use change on groundwater discharge. Unlike conventional salinity studies that focus on groundwater alone, this study makes use of a new approach to explore surface and groundwater interactions with salt stores and the stream. Land‐use change scenarios based on increased perennial pasture and tree‐cover content of the vegetation, aimed at high leakage and saline discharge areas, are investigated. Likely downstream impacts of the reduction in flow and salt export are estimated. The water balance model was able to simulate both the daily observed stream flow and salt load at the catchment outlet for high and low flow conditions satisfactorily. Mean leakage rate of about 23·2 mm year^?1 under current land use for the Boorowa catchment was estimated. The corresponding mean runoff and salt export from the catchment were 89 382 ML year^?1 and 38 938 t year^?1, respectively. Investigation of various land‐use change scenarios indicates that changing annual pastures and cropping areas to perennial pastures is not likely to result in substantial improvement of water quality in the Boorowa River. A land‐use change of about 20% tree‐cover, specifically targeting high recharge and the saline discharge areas, would be needed to decrease stream salinity by 150 µS cm^?1 from its current level. Stream salinity reductions of about 20 µS cm^?1 in the main Lachlan River downstream of the confluence of the Boorowa River is predicted. The FLOWTUBE modelling within the Boorowa River catchment indicated that discharge areas under increased recharge conditions could re‐equilibrate in around 20 years for the catchment, and around 15 years for individual hillslopes.

Study on methods of land use dynamic monitoring at county level

Remote sensing technique has played an important role in land use dynamic monitoring, but as for the land use dynamic monitoring at county level, traditional remote sensing methods such as satellite imagery visual interpretation and computer classification can not meet its demand for accuracy. The result of 1: 10 000 land use investigation map has high accuracy, but this method can not be used to dynamically monitor the land use because of its big expenses, long period and difficulty in updating data. In this paper, the characteristics of physiognomy, climate and the status of land use in Dehui County are taken into consideration and a set of method, which takes use of 3S techniques and applies to Northeast China Plain, is come up with. When the land use type of a land parcel changed as a whole, the date updating can be make by changing its land type ID in the attribute table in a GIS. When the land use type of an irregular area changed, GPS receivers are used to position its border. This set of method is characteristic of high accuracy and low expenses. It gets the information of land use change timely and can be used to dynamically monitor the land use.

考虑桩体刺入变形的透水混凝土桩复合地基固结理论研究

现有的多元复合地基利用两种或者两种以上的桩型对地基土进行加固,以期提高地基承载力、加速地基固结。提出了一种兼具散体材料桩和刚性不排水桩自身优点的透水混凝土桩复合地基固结模型。工程中刚性桩与土体的压缩量并不相等,这与等应变条件存在着不一致的地方。为此,抛弃传统等应变假设,考虑桩体向垫层和下卧层的刺入变形,对传统等应变假定进行修正,同时考虑了扰动区土体水平渗透系数的抛物线变化和水在桩体内的径向、竖向渗流,给出了此类固结问题的控制方程和解答以及复合地基固结度的表达式,并对复合地基固结度的解进行了讨论。最后与其他复合地基解做了比较并对固结性状进行了分析,并针对透水混凝土桩孔隙引起的桩阻作用对地基固结速度的影响进行了验证。

垃圾土中排水柱孔扩张问题弹塑性解

随着城市规模扩大,一些垃圾场地被再次利用进行工程建设。垃圾土具有高压缩性、可降解性,其纤维成分具有一定的加筋作用,这些特性给垃圾场地中静力触探、沉桩、旁压试验等工程的开展带来新的挑战。为此,基于考虑纤维加筋作用的垃圾土本构模型和大变形理论,通过引入中间变量,将孔扩张问题转化为求解一组给定边界条件的常微分方程组,继而给出垃圾土中排水柱孔扩张问题的弹塑性理论解。通过将退化解与既有基于修正剑桥模型的柱孔扩张解答对比验证了结果的可靠性。在此基础上,系统分析了超固结比和纤维含量对柱孔扩张过程中孔周应力分布和应力路径的影响。结果表明：与黏性土相比,垃圾土具有更大的塑性区半径;随着超固结比和纤维含量的增加,孔壁处极限压力和塑性区半径分别呈增加和减小趋势,不同纤维含量的垃圾土经历塑性阶段后,均达到泥状物成分的临界状态线附近。
