Applications of graph theory to gross error detection for GPS geodetic control networks

This paper describes a broad perspective of the application of graph theory to establishment of GPS control networks whereby the GPS network is considered as a connected and directed graph with three components. In this algorithm the gross error detection is undertaken through loops of different spanning trees using the “Loop Law” in which the individual components ΔX, ΔY and ΔZ sum up to zero. If the sum of the respective vector components ΩX, ΩY and ΩZ in a loop is not zero and if the error is beyond the tolerable limit (ε>ω), it indicates the existence of gross errors in one of the baselines in the loop and therefore the baseline must be removed or re-observed. After successful screening of errors by graph theory, network adjustment can be carried out. In this paper, the GPS data from the control network established as refence system for the HP Dam at Baishan county in Liaoning province is presented to illustrate the algorithm.     

基于遥感影像多尺度分割与地质因子评价的滑坡易发性区划

区域滑坡易发性的研究是滑坡空间预测的核心内容之一。从影像多尺度分割和面向对象的分类理论出发,以研究区遥感影像的熵、能量、相关性、对比度共4个参数作为影像纹理因子提取易发性特征,利用滑坡所处区域的库水影响等级、坡度、斜坡结构、工程岩组4类地质因子分析地质背景,搭建C5.0决策树的易发性分类模型,实现了对研究区内4类滑坡易发性单元的预测。结果表明：高易发性单元的工程岩组通常发育为软岩岩组和软硬相间岩组,且坡度在15°～30°之间;模型显示该区域训练样本和测试样本平均正确率达91.64%,Kappa系数分别为0.84,0.51,因此这种基于影像多尺度分割与地质因子分级的滑坡易发性分类研究具有一定的适用性。

An Explicit High Resolution Scheme for Nonlinear Shallow Water Equations

The present study develops a numerical model of the two-dimensional fully nonlinear shallow water equations （NSWE） for the wave run-up on a beach. The finite volume method （FVM） is used to solve the equations, and a second-order explicit scheme is developed to improve the computation efficiency. The numerical fluxes are obtained by the two dimensional Roe＇ s flux function to overcome the errors caused by the use of one dimensional fluxes in dimension splitting methods. The high-resolution Godunov-type TVD upwind scheme is employed and a second-order accuracy is achieved based on monotonic upstream schemes for conservation laws （MUSCL） variable extrapolation; a nonlinear limiter is applied to prevent unwanted spurious oscillation. A simple but efficient technique is adopted to deal with the moving shoreline boundary. The verification of the solution technique is carried out by comparing the model output with documented results and it shows that the solution technique is robust.

裂隙土等效连续介质的渗透张量及表征单元体积

裂隙土的渗透特性是裂隙土边坡稳定性分析中重要的参数。文中通过分别考虑随机裂隙网络和土体本身的渗透性,推导裂隙土的渗透系数,并用张量的形式表示渗透系数的各向异性。同时建立了确定裂隙土表征单元体积的准则,为应用等效连续介质模型提供了基础。结果表明裂隙土的渗透系数大于裂隙网络和土体的渗透系数,其渗透方向取决于裂隙网络的渗透方向。算例中裂隙土的表征单元体积大约是裂隙长度平均值的5倍。     

A Last Glacial Maximum pollen record from Bodmin Moor showing a possible cryptic northern refugium in southwest England

A late Devensian palynological record is presented from Dozmary Pool (Bodmin Moor, southwest England), beyond the southern limit of the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM) British Ice Sheet. The pollen assemblages indicate predominantly herbaceous tundra–steppe communities but also include elevated levels (typically 10–20%) of conifer tree pollen (Picea, Pinus, Abies) and lower but persistent percentages of broadleaf tree pollen during the LGM. This record is seemingly at odds with the orthodox view of an entirely treeless tundra–steppe environment for this region and elimination of tree species from the British Isles during glacial maxima. Long‐distance pollen transport seems an unlikely explanation for the tree pollen considering distance to the nearest known refugia, except possibly for Pinus. Reworking of the tree pollen, often invoked in these circumstances, remains a possible alternative, especially given the abundance of these trees in the region during early Devensian interstadials. However, this explanation has been challenged by studies reporting plant macrofossil and faunal evidence for survival of temperate biota during glacial maxima and from climate modelling work that suggests some trees could have survived the glacial extremes in areas well beyond the recorded glacial refugia. Assuming reworking was not a major factor, the Dozmary Pool pollen record is consistent with the ‘cryptic northern refugia hypothesis’ that invokes survival of trees in small, scattered populations under locally favourable conditions during glacial maxima.

树木年轮对塔里木河生态环境变迁的印证

树木年轮是全球变化研究中获取过去气候环境演变数据的重要载体,具有定年准确、连续性好、分辨率及重建精度高等优势。通过单调趋势检验塔里木河上中游径流量与胡杨年轮的趋势变化情况,将树木年轮与历史文献记载相结合,分析塔里木河下游树木年轮对水分供给的响应情况,印证胡杨年轮对河道改道事件响应的准确性。结果表明：（1）1957—2010年,塔里木河上中游胡杨径向生长量在时间序列上逐渐下降,与径流有着相同的变化趋势,且下降趋势显著;（2）下游年轮标本显示1913-2000年胡杨径向生长量整体下降,1973-2001年更加明显而达到近100年最低水平,拉依河的形成、改道、重归故道等与历史文献记载相同;（3）生态输水工程的开展改善了下游生态环境,这从下游胡杨年轮上得到了验证,但近15年的生态输水远未使下游胡杨年轮生长量达到1920年以前的水平,说明目前的生态输水对荒漠河岸林的恢复能力也是有限的;（4）在胡杨年轮对水资源的响应分析中,小波分析方法与历史文献记载得出了相同的结论。

节理粗糙度对岩块体积的影响规律研究

岩体结构直接控制着岩体力学、水力学特性,岩块体积分布规律可直接反映岩体结构特征。目前研究多将节理面简化为平面,忽略了粗糙度对岩块体积的影响。利用Hurst指数H和高度均方根R_q表征节理粗糙度,研究了节理粗糙度对岩块数量和体积分布规律的影响。结果表明：(1)H、R_q控制节理的粗糙起伏形态,粗糙度随着R_q的增大而增大、随着H的增大而减小;(2)块体的数量总体上与节理粗糙度正相关,即随着粗糙度的增大而增加;(3)R_q和H对岩块体积分布的影响,主要通过改变小体积块体所占比例实现,块体的平均体积和中位体积随着粗糙度的增大而减小;(4)当节理正交且间距相近时,块体数量随粗糙度的变化可以分为3个阶段,即稳定阶段、初始增长阶段和快速增长阶段,R_q和H共同控制着各区间的相对分布范围。最后,基于摄影测量采集的数据建立了岩体节理模型,对大连某公路边坡的岩块体积分布进行了研究,验证了上述结论的准确性。
