Diversity and zonal distribution of arbuscular my-corrhizal fungi on the northern slopes of the Tianshan Mountains

The arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal status of the 20 most common plant species distributed in 4 vegetation types (meadow steppe, desert steppe, steppe desert and typical desert) on the northern slopes of the Tianshan Mountains was investigated. Samples of the plant species and their rhizosphere soils were collected from the 4 vegetation zones and examined to compare their mycorrhizal status, AM fungal spore densities, biovolumes, and community structures. 28 AM fungal species were isolated from the rhizosphere soils: of these, 5 belonged to Acaulospora, 1 to Archaeospora and 22 to Glomus. 5 AM fungi, Glomus aggregatum, G. claroideum, G. deserticola, G. etunicatum and G. sinuosum, were observed in all 4 zonal types. No significant differences were observed in mean proportion of root length colonized by AM fungi among the plant species within each zonal type. Comparing the 4 zonal types, Plantago minuta (84.5%) in steppe desert and Eremopyrum orientale (83.1%) in typical desert showed the highest root colonizatsion rates. AM fungal spore densities and biovolumes were significantly different in the different zonal types. AM fungal spore densities and biovolumes, species richness and diversity were highest in meadow steppe and lowest in typical desert.     

深部洞室开挖卸荷分区破裂机制的动力分析

随着地下工程开挖深度的增加,深部岩体将处于高应力和复杂的地质环境中,产生与浅埋洞室破坏模式迥异的分区破裂现象。深部洞室在动力卸荷作用下,基于应变梯度理论和损伤软化模型,建立了弹塑性损伤软化动力模型,推导了含有应变梯度项的运动方程、平衡方程和边界条件,提出相应的破坏判据,采用Runge-Kutta方法和Matlab数值软件求得不同卸载时刻围岩附加位移场、应力场和开挖后围岩总位移场、应力场,得到深部洞室围岩分区破裂的动态形成过程和发展规律。由理论计算值与地质力学模型试验实测值对比分析得知,围岩的径向位移、径向应力和切向应力出现波峰和波谷交替振荡的变化规律,理论计算得到的破裂区和非破裂区的宽度和数量与试验实测值有很好的一致性,证实了该模型分析分区破裂现象的适用性,对以后深部地下工程围岩变形破坏和支护设计提供理论支持。     

西太平洋暖池次表层海温异常 与ENSO循环的相互作用

利用1964～1993年的太平洋次表层海温资料,进一步分析研究了西太平洋暖池次表层海温异常与ENSO循环的关系。合成及相关分析的结果进一步表明,西太平洋暖池次表层海温的暖（冷）异常及其东传对ENSO的发生起着十分重要、且更直接的作用。然而,赤道西太平洋异常纬向风是造成次表层海温异常东传的重要原因,而纬向风的异常又是由于东亚冬季风异常活动所引起的,这间接地说明了异常东亚冬季风对西太平洋暖池次表层海温距平东传的重要作用。通过研究还发现,ENSO发生后,北半球副热带地区将有次表层暖（冷）海温距平沿着10～20oN纬带西传,这是导致西太平洋暖池次表层海温发生异常的重要原因之一。也就是说,西太平洋暖池次表层海温异常与ENSO循环之间是相互影响、相互作用的。     

Temporal variations of the polar moment of inertia and the second-degree geopotential

In order to study the geodynamic behaviour of the Earth over short (elastic Earth) and long (almost perfectly liquid Earth) geological periodic variations, the changes of the moment of inertia are decomposed into two parts: the first, described by a volume integral, explains the effect of the density variations, while the second gives the impact of the surface variations using a surface integral. It is shown that both components have physical significance, but their contribution is different in case of short (lunisolar) and long (connected to secular despinning) periods.     

世界大洋中绝热运动导致的纬向翻转环流和纬向热输送

Zonal overturning circulation(ZOC) and its associated zonal heat flux(ZHF) are important components of the oceanic circulation and climate system, although these conceptions have not received adequate attentions.Heaving induced by inter-annual and decadal wind stress perturbations can give rise to anomalous ZOC and ZHF.Based on a simple reduced gravity model, the anomalous ZOC and ZHF induced by idealized heaving modes in the world oceans are studied. For example, in a Pacific-like model basin intensified equatorial easterly on decadal time scales can lead to a negative ZOC with a non-negligible magnitude(–0.3×106 m3/s) and a considerable westward ZHF with an amplitude of –11.2 TW. Thus, anomalous ZOC and ZHF may consist of a major part of climate signals on decadal time scales and thus play an important role in the oceanic circulation and climate change.     

热带东风中经向扰动与纬向扰动的非线性相互作用

根据非线性的动量方程,利用多时间尺度分析方法,探讨由经向扰动与纬向扰动相互作用在热带东风中所造成的一类正压不稳定。分析表明:在零级近似下,给出了两个扰动传播的频率表达式,在一级近似下,得到了两个零级扰动振幅的解析表达式。鉴于方程中散度项的存在,当不同尺度的三个波相作用而发生共振时,仅总动能守恒,而总位拟能不守恒,这一点与无辐散大气的结论不同。两种扰动动能相互转换的机制则是涡度场与散度场的相互作用。     

Large-scale interannual variation of the summer monsoon over India and its empirical prediction

Large-scale interannual variability of the northern summer southwest monsoon over India is studied by examining its variation in the dry area during the period 1871–1984. On the mean summer monsoon rainfall (June to September total) chart the 800 mm isohyet divides the country into two nearly equal halves, named as dry area (monsoon rainfall less than 800 mm) and wet area (monsoon rainfall greater than 800 mm). The dry area/wet area shows large variations from one year to another, and is considered as an index for assessing the large-scale performance of the Indian summer monsoon. Statistical and fluctuation characteristics of the summer monsoon dry area (SMDA) are reported. To identify possible causes of variation in the Indian summer monsoon, the correlation between the summer monsoon dry area and eleven regional/global circulation parameters is examined. The northern hemisphere surface air temperature, zonal/hemispheric/global surface air and upper air temperatures, Southern Oscillation, Quasi-biennial oscillation of the equatorial lower stratosphere, April 500-mb ridge along 75°E over India, the Indian surface air temperature and the Bombay sea level pressure showed significant correlation. A new predictor parameter that is preceding year mean monsoon rainfall of a few selected stations over India has been suggested in the present study. The stations have been selected by applying the objective technique ‘selecting a subset of few gauges whose mean monsoon rainfall of the preceding year has shown the highest correlation coefficient (CC) with the SMDA’. Bankura (Gangetic West Bengal), Cuddalore (Tamil Nadu) and Anupgarh (West Rajasthan) entered the selection showing a CC of 0.724. Using a dependent sample of 1951–1980 a predictive model (multiple CC = 0.745) has also been developed for the SMDA with preceding year mean monsoon rainfall of the three selected stations and the sea level pressure tendency at Darwin from Jan–Feb to Mar–May as independent parameters.

论文对现场观测和相似材料模拟实验中岩石分区碎裂化的时间效应进行了总结。得出岩石分区碎裂化现象是岩体经蠕变产生的。破碎带的形成需要经过一定的时间。但这段时间不会很长。采用蠕变理论对岩石分区碎裂化的时间效应进行了分析,推导了能够描述加速蠕变阶段的流变模型———改进的西原模型的本构方程和蠕变方程。在此基础上求出了岩石分区破裂化发生时破裂带半径(破碎带距巷道中心的距离)的公式。     

Entrainment of circumpolar water in the Indian Ocean region of the Antarctic

The net influx of the circumpolar water on the western (approximately along 10°E) and eastern (approximately 115°E) boundaries of the Indian Ocean, adopting the method of Montgomery and Stroup is computed on bivariate distribution of potential thermosteric anomaly and salinity to identify the characteristics of the flux. The zonal flux at both the boundaries indicates an alternate strong easterly and westerly flow between 36°S and 45°S, south of which the flow is mainly easterly but weak up to 56°S. At the western boundary the easterly flow is 146 Sv and westerly is 98.07 Sv, while at the eastern boundary (115°E) the corresponding fluxes are 123.46 Sv and 27.20 Sv respectively, indicating a net outflux of 48.33 Sv. This water should have been accounted by the melting of ice and influx of the Equatorial Pacific Ocean Water.
