珠江磨刀门河口潮波振幅梯度与上下游动力边界的关系异变研究

强人类活动目前已经成为河口演变的主要动力。阐明流量驱动下河控型河口潮波传播演变过程及机制,对河口治理及人类活动的影响评价具有重要指导意义。以珠江磨刀门河口为例,研究了径潮动力阶段性演变特征。采用流量驱动的R_TIDE数据驱动模型探究了该区潮波振幅梯度和上下游动力边界(即上游流量和口门振幅)关系的变化规律。结果表明,在强人类活动影响下,各潮位站M₂分潮振幅明显上升(三灶站除外),且具有季节性差异和阶段性变化,灯笼山-马口河段的M₂分潮振幅沿程平均增大约0.07 m,河段潮波振幅梯度平均增大约4.61×10^–6 m^–1。研究潮波振幅梯度与上下游动力边界的阈值的关系表明,阈值效应主要出现在甘竹-马口河段。在强人类活动影响下,潮波振幅梯度阈值增大,相应的流量阈值增大,而振幅阈值基本不变。在达到振幅阈值之前,由于底床摩擦效应,大潮振幅衰减效应大于小潮,而在超过振幅阈值后,地形辐聚效应成为影响潮波振幅梯度变化的主要因素,大潮振幅衰减效应小于小潮。阈值的变化主要与流量、地形、摩擦等多因子耦合作用有关,当地形辐聚效应和底床摩擦效应达到平衡时,潮波振幅梯度与上下游动力边界之间则出现阈值效应。该现象的发现可为河口海岸防灾减灾和水资源管理等实际问题提供重要理论支撑。     

Collapse of dome cup ends under external hydrostatic pressure

An experimental investigation was carried out in which four dome cup ends were tested to failure under external hydrostatic pressure. The collapse pressures of the dome cup ends were compared with that of a conventional dome cap end. The investigation revealed that the dome cup ends were structurally more efficient than the conventional dome cap ends. All the vessels were made from the same batch of glass fibre matting and associated material.     

Réflexions sur la formation des bandes de Forbes : l'instabilité de la fusion de la glace saleReflections on the formation of Forbes ogives: the instability of fusion of dirty ice

Forbes ogives show alternations of dark (ice + mineral dust) and light bands at the surface of certain glaciers. We propose to understand their origin by the influence of the content of mineral matter on the lowering of the temperature and pressure of ice fusion and upon the increase of fusion velocity. We are then in an unstable situation: a local increase in the mineral content being induced by the fusion process, which in turn increases; this creates a dark band. The movement of the glacier cannot keep up with the fusion: pressure is lowered again below the fusion point, and a white band is formed. To cite this article: B. Guy et al., C. R.

外源与孤波的相互作用对阻塞形成的影响

利用准地转涡度方程导出包括外源和摩擦耗散的强迫广义KdV-Burgers方程,分析表明,外源和耗散的存在是孤波质量和能量变化的原因,耗散使孤波质量和能量随时间呈指数减小。数值计算结果指出,移动性孤波和外源的相互作用,使孤波移速减小,振幅增大;在无耗散情况下,失谐参数α较小时,由于孤波迅速离开外源强迫区,因此不利于阻塞的形成;小耗散的存在,迫使相互作用过程中孤波在外源强迫区附近来回振荡传播,大大增加相互作用时间,可能是造成外源区附近局地阻塞的一种重要机制。

为了在1 m红外太阳望远镜多通道高分辨率成像观测系统中实现多个波段太阳图像的同步高分辨率统计重建,需要1 m太阳望远镜多个观测通道图像采集系统同步。研究了如何采用CCD相机外触发工作模式、计算机PCI总线硬件中断技术和全球定位系统时间相结合实现1 m太阳望远镜多个观测通道图像的同步采集,并在现有的Hα和Ti O两个成像观测通道上搭建实验平台。通过一系列的波形时序测试,数据记录和分析等实验证明本文所采用的这一数据同步采集技术能满足1 m太阳望远镜多个观测通道图像的同步采集要求。     

Shifts in vegetation growth in response to multiple factors on the Mongolian Plateau from 1982 to 2011

The Mongolian Plateau (MP) steppe is one of the largest steppe environments in the world. To monitor the terrestrial vegetation dynamics on the MP and to ascertain what the driving forces, this study examined the vegetation dynamics in Republic of Mongolia (M) and the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region (IM) of China from the period 1982 to 2011, based on the satellite-derived GIMMS NDVI3g (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index) data across three biomes (desert, grassland and forest). The results are as followed: (1) Vegetation coverage in IM was generally greater than that in M. Before 2002, time series of NDVI over the MP increased at an average rate of 0.05% yr⁻¹. Additionally, after 2002, the NDVI increased at a rate of 0.21% yr⁻¹. From 1982 to 2011, the area of IM and M with positive anomalies in the NDVI increased at a separate rate of 1.82% yr⁻¹ and 1.76% yr⁻¹, respectively. (2) At the biome scale, the inter-annual forest NDVI variation in IM and desert NDVI for the entire MP had a significant increasing trend (0.06% yr⁻¹ and 0.04% yr⁻¹, respectively). (3) Climate forcing was a dominant controlling factor affecting the vegetation, and the anthropogenic behavior exhibited no significant value in the whole region. However, overgrazing was the most important reason for the regional degradation, particularly in IM. (4) In the future, the forest biome will go to recovery, whereas both the grassland and desert biomes are predicted to degrade continuously.     

The buckling and vibration of tube-stiffened axisymmetric shells under external hydrostatic pressure

The paper reports on a theoretical and an experimental investigation into the buckling and vibration of prolate hemi-ellipsoidal tube-stiffened domes under external water pressure. The theoretical analyses were via the finite element method, where both the fluid and the structure were modelled with finite elements. The dome was modelled with a varying meridional curvature element and with eight displacement degrees of freedom and the water was modelled by solid annular elements where each element had eight pressure degrees of freedom in its cross-section. Comparison was good between experiment and theory.     

基于成像域射线束建模的剩余静校正方法研究及应用

由信噪比极低的资料生成的剩余静校正模型,其信噪比通常也较低,导致剩余静校正效果不理想,因此提高模型的信噪比,在提高资料处理品质中有着极其重要的意义.文章提出了一种基于成像域射线束建模的剩余静校正的方法.该方法是采用成像域射线束建模对数据进行分解和重构,并且根据不同的分解级数和分解尺度,分解和重构成不同成分的数据,该方法在重构的过程中加入倾角场的约束,能有效保护高陡构造.成像域射线束建模得到的第一级分量为数据的主要成分,构造保真,信噪比高,把该分量作为外部模型,进行外部模型剩余静校正.把本文方法在低信噪比资料进行应用,提高低信噪比资料的剩余静校正效果,有效的改善了资料处理成果的品质.     

NIZUSE: a deep seismic reflection line in north-eastern Germany

Out of a dense network of seismic reflection lines for hydrocarbon exploration in the North-east German Basin, several lines were recorded to 12 s TWT to obtain information about the structure of the crust and the crust-mantle transition. One of these profiles is presented here. This stretches for 110 km in a NNE direction between Neustrelitz and the island of Usedom. It reaches from the External Variscides in the south across the North German Massif into the Rügen-Pomorze Terrane in the Baltic Sea. Below Cenozoic-Mesozoic-Paleozoic cover with clear reflections down to base Zechstein, the reflectivity varies considerably with depth and also laterally. The Paleozoic and Precambrian sediments and basement are generally void of reflections, but the lower crust and the Moho show strong reflections. To the north the reflectivity decreases, and the Moho depth increases to beyond the bottom of the record section at 12 s. There are no direct indications for deep-reaching faults such as the Trans-European Fault in the north. The North German Massif acted as a ramp towards the Variscan Orogeny, similar to the London-Brabant Massif further west.
