三山岛金矿海边地下开采矿山稳定性的数值模拟分析

本文用数值模拟的分析方法, 评价了三山岛金矿地下开采引起的开采效应及地表下沉盆地的变形特征。结果表明, 矿山地表是稳定的, 上部一期工程开采引起的地表最大下沉量不超过700mm, 深部开挖时不超过995mm左右；在采场充填的情况下, 地表下沉值将降低55%左右；由于矿山地表变形较小, 加之覆盖层第四纪中存在着两层总厚度8～12m的隔水粘水层, 因此不致沟通地表水与井下的直接联系而危及矿山的安全。

Air quality and view degradations due to copper mining and milling: Preliminary analysis and cost estimates for Green Valley,Arizona

Green Valley, Arizona is a retirement community located near major open-pit copper mines. Mining and milling activities create dust, which degrades air quality, and mine dumps and tailings banks, which degrade the viewscape. Although the tailings banks are highly visible, this study found that consumer surplus lost from dust-polluted air is more than twice that from degradation of viewscape. Consumer surplus lost from both air quality and viewscape degradation is estimated to be between $116,000,000 and $169,000,000. These preliminary estimates are based upon two studies: hedonic property values, and a contingent valuation survey of willingness to pay.     

Global climatic changes since the last glacial maximum: evidence from paleolimnology and paleoclimate modeling

Recognition that Earth/Sun orbital changes are the basic cause for Quaternary climatic variations provides a context for explaining global environmental changes, many of which are preserved in the stratigraphic and geomorphic record of lakes. Paleoclimatic numerical models suggest the mechanisms. In subtropical latitudes such as North Africa the enhanced summer insolation culminating about 10 000 years ago resulted in the increased monsoonal rains that explain the widespread expansion of lakes in now-desert basins. But in the American Southwest lake expansion dates to 18 000–15 000 years ago, when storm tracks were displaced to the south by the ice sheets—themselves a product of earlier orbital changes. The dynamics in the resopnse of different components of the natural system to climatic change are recorded in the stratigraphy of lake sediments, not only by their pollen content as a manifestation of the regional vegetation but also by their microfossils and chemical composition as reflections of lake development.This is the 10th in a series of papers published in this special AMQUA issue. These papers were presented at the 1994 meeting of the American Quaternary Association held 19–22 June, 1994, at the University of Minnesota, Minneapolis, Minnesota, USA. Dr Linda C. K. Shane served as guest for these papers.     

Diatom-based water chemistry reconstructions from northern Sweden: a comparison of reconstruction techniques

The diatom composition in surface sediments from 119 northern Swedish lakes was studied to examine the relationship with lake-water pH, alkalinity, and colour. Diatom-based predictive models, using weighted-averaging (WA) regression and calibration, partial least squares (PLS) regression and calibration, and weighted-averaging partial least squares (WA-PLS) regression and calibration, were developed for inferences of water chemistry conditions. The non-linear response between the diatom assemblages and pH and alkalinity was best modelled by weighted-averaging methods. The lowest prediction error for pH was obtained using weighted averaging, with or without tolerance downweighting. For alkalinity there was still some information in the residual structure after extracting the first weighted-averaging component, which resulted in a slight improvement of predictions when using a two component WA-PLS model. The best colour predictions were obtained using a two component PLS model. Principal component analysis (PCA) of the prediction errors, with some characteristics of the training set included as passive variables, was performed to compare the results for the different alkalinity predictive models. The results indicate that calibration techniques utilizing more than one component (PLS and WA-PLS) can improve the predictions for lakes with diatom taxa that have broad tolerances. Furthermore, we show that WA-PLS performs best compared with the other techniques for those lakes that have a high relative abundance of the most dominant taxa and a corresponding low sample heterogeneity.     

The investment-worth model: Concepts and methods for estimation of model parameters

A holistic investiment methodology defined as the investiment-worth model is developed to evaluate the risks and rewards of capital investments. The model demonstrates that the investment worth of a mining project is not the same for all firms in the industry. The attractiveness of a project varies with economic and risk-related characteristics of a firm.     

山西运城盆地地下水资源开发利用的初步研究

运城盆地存在的主要水文地质问题如下:第一查明地下水资源数量,解决区域下降漏斗;其二本区水资源不足,提引黄河水作补充水源时,要防治引黄灌溉中造成的盐渍化;第三设计排水方案时,必需考虑盐湖资源的形成和保护。以上问题是相互联系相互制约的。本文对上述问题提出解决的途径。     

敦煌月牙泉湖水位持续下降原因及对策分析

在分析月牙泉湖水文地质条件的基础上，依据实际调查资料和前人研究成果，定量分析了月牙泉湖水位持续下降的原因，认为地表水开采量的不断增加和水资源利用率的不断提高所引起的区域性地下水位持续下降是月牙泉湖水位下降的主要原因，超采地下水所引起的储存资源的减少是导致月牙泉湖地下水位下降的次要原因。遏止月牙泉湖水位继续下降并逐步回升的关键是增加湖区上游地下水的补给量和减少党河灌区开采量，为此提出了农业节水和引哈济党二种治理方案，但就月牙泉湖水位恢复速度和时间及取得的社会、生态及经济效益而言，引哈济党方案优先。
