根据福建省明溪幔源包体（二辉橄榄岩）中橄榄石晶格优选方位（ＬＰＯ）及其晶体弹性刚度系数,计算了地震波速度及其各向异性．研究结果表明,该区地震波各向异性是由橄榄石塑性流动产生晶格优选方位而引起的．与构造背景有关的ＶＰ,Ｖｓ１,Ｖｓ２和△Ｖｓ分布特征表明,中国东南沿海地区上地幔物质流动方向（由ＮＷＷ向ＳＥＥ）与橄榄石［１００］定向排列方向（ａ轴）和ＶＰ最大方向有一致的趋势．     

Rethinking rewilding

The term ‘rewilding’ sounds as if it should have a straightforward meaning ‘to make wild again’. But in truth the term has a complex history and a host of meanings have been ascribed to it. Rewilding as a specific scientific term has its beginnings as a reference to the Wildlands Project, which was founded in 1991 and aimed to create North American core wilderness areas without human activity that would be connected by corridors. Words, however, do not stand still—they change over time and take on new meanings, while sometimes simultaneously retaining the older sense. Employing Foucault’s idea of historical genealogy, this article examines how the term rewilding was historically adopted and modified in ecological scientific discourse over the last two decades. This investigation probes what and, by extension, when and where, rewilding refers to as it has moved into various geographies across the globe. It then examines how the term has moved outside of science and been adopted by environmental activists as a plastic word. Taken as a whole, rewilding discourse seeks to erase human history and involvement with the land and flora and fauna. Such an attempted split between nature and culture may prove unproductive and even harmful. A more inclusive rewilding is a preferable strategy.     

格栅加筋路堤离心模型试验的模型材料选择

离心模型试验的结果能否反应实际工程情况,决定于模型与原型的相似程度,所以设计模型时必须按一定的相似原则来选择模型材料。由于受结构物尺寸的限制,并不能保证模型和原型所有的参数都相似,故需抓住关键变量,确定最优模拟参数。通过理论分析,系统论述了软土地基上格栅加筋路堤离心模型试验中所涉及的土工格栅、塑料排水板、地基、路堤、砂垫层等模型材料的选择原则。     

Biosorption of Dyes by Natural and Activated Vine Stem. Interaction between Biosorbent and Dye

In the present study, the vine stem and modified vine stem were used as low cost adsorbents for the removal of acidic and basic dyes from aqueous solutions. A comparative study was also carried out with activated carbon obtained from vine stem and then the adsorption capacities of all adsorbents were evaluated by batch adsorption process. The effects of various adsorption parameters (initial pH, particle size, and contact time) were investigated. The modification of the vine stem with nitric acid increased its adsorption capacity for the basic dye. Both, vine stem and modified vine stem exhibited higher adsorption capacities than activated carbon. The adsorption capacities were found to be 322.58, 250, and 200 mg g^?1 for modified, natural vine stem, and activated carbon, respectively. In the case of acidic dye, the pH strongly affected the adsorption capacity and the maximum dye uptake was observed at pH 2 for all adsorbents. The acidic dye adsorption was lower compared to basic dye on both biosorbents and activated carbon tested. The maximum acidic dye adsorption values (58.82 and 59.88 mg g^?1) were obtained with the vine stem and activated carbon, respectively. In the case of lignocellulosic adsorbents, both surface charge and surface groups had main effect on the adsorption of basic dye, while adsorption mechanism in activated carbon was mainly through the physical adsorption. The results of comparative adsorption capacity of adsorbents indicated that vine stem or modified vine stem can be used as a low cost alternative to activated carbon in aqueous solution for basic dye removal.     

亚洲中东部岩浆岩网络状分布与塑性流动网络

亚洲中东部的岩浆岩分布具有明显的网络状特征，共轭相交的岩浆岩带构成了晚古生代、中生代和新生代不同的岩浆岩网络系统。岩浆岩网络受岩石圈下层塑性流动网络的控制，是塑性流动带剪切变形、摩擦热效应及带内介质弱化、轻化，以至促成地幔上隆和岩浆上涌的结果。根据“塑性流动－岩浆岩”网络，推测了不同地质时期大陆构造变形的驱动边界、驱动力方向和古构造应力场，并探讨了网络构造的演变等问题     

华北地区壳内低速层与地壳流变的关系及其对强震孕育的影响

京津唐张地区普遍存在壳内低速层 ,鄂尔多斯块体内部没有发现低速层 ,壳内低速层的这种分布受新生代裂陷伸展的控制。华北地区中地壳下部和下地壳低速层是岩石塑性流变的结果 ,中地壳上部低速层是地壳裂陷伸展时形成的水平拆离带和韧性剪切带 ,岩石各向异性和流体作用可能是引起低速的原因。壳内软弱层 (低速和塑性流变层 )增强了块体层间的解耦作用 ,对地震孕育起着重要作用

本文依据天祝—景泰6.2级地震的地震构造、应力场条件及前兆分布,分析研究了该次地震的孕震过程。认为天祝一景泰6.2级地震的力源主要是NE向区域应力场的挤压,垂直差异运动对地震起了促震作用。孕震过程形成的震源应力场在空间上有四象限分布特征,时间上经历了孕育、形成、增强等阶段,相应地震源区则经历了弹性形变、塑性形变、塑性硬化及失稳错动的过程。     

Environmental impact of the MV CITA on the foreshore of Porth Hellick, Isles of Scilly

The grounding of the container feeder vessel MV CITA on Newfoundland Rocks, Isles of Scilly, had an effect on the surrounding biota and benthic environment. Included in the CITA's cargo were five 40 ft containers holding pallets of polyester film used in the production of audio and visual recording tapes. The wreckage presented a minor but potentially chronic source of pollution through the delayed release of polythene film, which was left on the seabed as it was considered insufficiently valuable to warrant salvage. The polythene disintegrated and was washed upon the foreshore of Porth Hellick in minute shreds. The adjacent foreshore and two control sites within the islands were analysed using a 5-strand line and vegetation survey with 10 random quadrats within each line to determine the environmental impact of the polythene.     

Potential radionuclide transport pathways from seafloor dumpsites: Kamchatka region of the North Pacific Ocean

Encapsulated nuclear waste materials, dumped by Russia, are present at two deepwater seafloor locations in the offshore north-west Pacific Ocean, south-east of the Kamchatka Peninsula. This paper assesses potential pathways by which these wastes might, if released from their containers, disperse away from the dumpsites and through the surrounding ocean. A review of large-scale ocean circulation theory and of field and model results suggests that mean abyssal currents are north-eastward to eastward from the dumpsite locations and would advect leaking materials toward the north-eastern Pacific. Results of advective and diffusive horizontal plume transport models are consistent with this sense of flow. Trajectory speeds are, however, subject to considerable uncertainty. Our results suggest that as little as 5 years or as long as 100 years might be required for material to be transported from the dump sites to the north-east Pacific. Dilution by 4 or 5 orders of magnitude is predicted during this transit. Vertical mixing or upwelling are necessary in order to transport contaminants upward from north-east Pacific abyssal waters to the near-surface layers before they can potentially impact productive coastal regions, such as those off Alaska. Information concerning such upwelling mechanisms is inadequate for estimation of rates or to identify geographical areas that might be at risk.
