胶东金矿幔源成矿流体深部演化与深部找矿

目前,胶东金矿成矿流体研究主要集中在成矿流体的来源及其成矿过程研究,但是对于其侵位前的物化状态及分异演化研究尚浅。该文提出胶东金矿矿集区幔源成矿流体深部演化的一种形成机制,并认为胶东金矿幔源成矿流体在侵位前发生了富集作用。正是由于幔源成矿流体的富集作用才使得胶东地区形成现在规模、品位的金矿。胶东金矿幔源成矿流体的侵位机制主要受华北东部构造转折体制制约。根据胶东地区金矿幔源成矿流体分异演化特征、构造特征及现有深部探测实例表明：胶东地区在1000m以下极有可能存在另一个大型金矿带。     

主动学习与图的半监督相结合的高光谱影像分类

针对当前高光谱影像分类时,人工标注样本费时费力以及大量未标记样本未有效利用等问题,提出了一种主动学习与图的半监督相结合的高光谱影像分类方法。首先,将像素的光谱信息与其邻域内的空间信息相结合,利用重排序机制得到一种旋转不变的空谱特征表达。在此基础上,利用主动学习算法选择最不确定性样本(即分类模糊度最大的样本),提交操作者标注得到标记样本集。最后将该标记样本与未标记样本组合,用于图的半监督分类。该算法可保证类别边界样本的选择,利于分类器的边界构造,同时,在较少标记样本情况下,通过引入大量的未标记样本,可以达到较好的分类效果。在3幅真实高光谱影像上的试验表明,该方法可以取得精度较高的分类结果。     

浅层地震勘探方法在活动断层中的应用——以邯郸市活动断层探测为例

浅层地震勘探方法在城市活动断层探测中发挥着重要作用,实践表明,浅层地震反射波法可以获取深度十米至几十米的浅层地层反射信号,且大部分反射剖面均可较清楚地揭示出浅部断层位置和断层特征,地震数据处理是准确识别近地表活动断层的重要环节,也是提高资料分辨率和信噪比的有效途径。本文应用邯郸市活动断层浅层地震资料,运用多途径、分步骤的去噪技术和方法,压制干扰,极大地提高了资料的分辨率和信噪比,并对活动断层的典型剖面进行重点研究和验证。

Palaeozoic Intraplate Crustal Anatexis in the Mount Painter Province, South Australia: Timing, Thermal Budgets and the Role of Crustal Heat Production

The effect of radiogenic heat production within the crust onthermal processes such as crustal anatexis is generally disregardedas bulk geochemical models suggest that crustal heat generationrates are too low to effect significant heating. However, theMount Painter Province in northern South Australia is characterizedby a total crustal contribution to surface heat flow of morethan twice the global average. The province is composed dominantlyof Proterozoic granites and granite gneisses with an area averageheat production of 16·1 µW/m³; individual lithologieshave heat production >60 µW/m³. These Proterozoic rocksare intruded by the British Empire Granite, a younger intrusivewhose origin has remained enigmatic. Isotope geochemistry suggestscrustal sources for the melt and it has a crystallization ageof 440–450 Ma, which places the setting >750 km inboardof the nearest active plate boundary zone at this time. Phaseequilibria calculations suggest that temperatures of at least720–750°C are required to produce the granite butthe intensity of crustal thickening during Palaeozoic deformation(12%) cannot account for these conditions. Here we describea model for the generation of the British Empire Granite inwhich the primary thermal perturbation for mid-crustal anatexiswas provided by the burial of the high heat-producing MountPainter basement rocks beneath the known thickness of Neoproterozoiccover sediments. The high heat-producing rocks at Mount Painterimply that the natural range and variability of crustal heatproduction is much greater than previously believed, with importantconsequences for our understanding of temperature-dependentcrustal processes including the exploitation of geothermal energyresources. KEY WORDS: geothermal energy; low-pressure anatexis; thermal conductivity; thermal regime     

Lessons Learned from Reviewing Research in GIS Education

Abstract

Traditional lectures generally force students to play a passive role in the classroom. In an effort to promote active learning, we added discussion sections to a large lecture hall course. Field trips, student journals, and group-based assignments, in particular, enhanced the learning experience. To ensure the success of the new format, course planners must enlist the sustained cooperation of key faculty and administrators on campus, as well as teaching assistants assigned to the new sections. The new discussion sections allowed students to acknowledge the environmental impact their actions have on campus and to recognize that environmental problems occur at multiple scales.     

Useful Products of the Century Plant a Lesson on Mexico

Creating opportunities for students to actively apply hazards theory to real-life situations is often a challenge in hazards geography courses. This article presents a project, the Jocko Lakes Fire Project, that implemented learning strategies to encourage students to be active in wildfire hazards research. Wildfire hazards stand out as an increasing threat to communities in forested areas given current and projected rates of urbanization, the growing concentration of wealth in hazard-prone areas, the increasing costs of forest wildfire reduction, and climate change. Components of the project involved students in problem definition and the articulation of a research plan; identifying and collecting relevant data; and analyzing and documenting the wildfire hazard event. The student-based evaluation of the project and its outcomes highlights the ways in which this approach can increase understanding of local hazard scenarios, familiarity with relevant theory, geographical knowledge, and skills in research.     

The DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey: the red sequence AGN fraction and its environment and redshift dependence

We measure the dependence of the active galactic nuclei (AGN) fraction on local environment at   z ∼ 1  , using spectroscopic data taken from the DEEP2 Galaxy Redshift Survey, and Chandra X-ray data from the All-Wavelength Extended Groth Strip International Survey (AEGIS). To provide a clean sample of AGN, we restrict our analysis to the red sequence population; this also reduces additional colour–environment correlations. We find evidence that high-redshift LINERs in DEEP2 tend to favour higher density environments relative to the red population from which they are drawn. In contrast, Seyferts and X-ray selected AGN at   z ∼ 1  show little (or no) environmental dependencies within the same underlying population. We compare these results with a sample of local AGN drawn from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS). Contrary to the high-redshift behaviour, we find that both LINERs and Seyferts in the SDSS show a slowly declining red sequence AGN fraction towards high-density environments. Interestingly, at   z ∼ 1  red sequence Seyferts and LINERs are approximately equally abundant. By   z ∼ 0  , however, the red Seyfert population has declined relative to the LINER population by over a factor of ∼4.5. We speculate on possible interpretations of our results.
