一次强雷暴中的多灾种天气特征对比分析

用Micaps和NCEP再分析资料对2012年7月3日发生在淮河以南地区的大范围强雷暴天气进行了分析,得出高、低空急流配置,形成低空辐合,高空辐散,槽线由高到低前倾,有利增强大气不稳定层结,中尺度切变线南北摆动具有触发对流作用等,为该区强雷暴多灾种天气的发生,提供了动力和热力条件。从云图、雷达参数和地闪特征对比分析得出冰雹、雷击、强降水,分别发生在强对流云团发展的不同时间和不同部位。其云团的形态、强度和范围等也不同。冰雹所表现出的回波强度、回波顶高和垂直积分液态水含量为最强,雷击次之,强降水最弱。在地闪出现的各个阶段都有可能出现雷击事故,但多为负地闪,强度均较强。强降水过程多为负地闪,强度较弱,降水集中时段,地闪频次高。冰雹发生时地闪频数明显下降,且多为正闪。雷击过程强度和陡度变化最平缓,冰雹过程突变最明显。雷击发生在整个地闪过程中强度和陡度都相对较大的时刻;冰雹发生前约半小时有强度和陡度的骤增;强降水阶段地闪平均强度和陡度都最小。     

Recent Progresses in Comparative Planetology——Summary of the Session of Comparative Planetology at the 3rd Conference of Earth System Sciences

Comparative planetology is an interdisciplinary science between Earth sciences and astronomy. It studies physical, chemical and dynamical properties of planets and satellites and their surface characteristics, interior structures and chemistry, magnetic field, climate and possible existence of life. Although the study of comparative planetary science is at its infancy stage in China, it is very encouraging to see that 25 papers were received by the session, which is much more than what we expected. It indicates that more and more scientists are interested in this research field. These papers can be classified into three categories: solar planets, extra-solar planets, and moon explorations. Scientists from both China and oversea reported their recent results.     

Mountain hydrology of Canada and China: A case study in comparative hydrology

Comparative hydrology attempts to identify regions with similar environmental attributes and then compares the hydrological activities in these regions to facilitate the transfer of knowledge and exchange of techniques. As a case study, the mountainous regions of Canada and China were compared. Vertical zonation is a characteristic feature of such regions, generating contrasts in microclimate, vegetation, soil and the resultant hydrological responses. An increase in precipitation with altitude is modified by aspect and other local factors. In temperate and colder latitudes, snow and ice are important, especially at higher elevations. Both countries have conducted many hydrological studies on snow and glaciers, but evaporation in mountainous terrain merits more attention. Runoff from mountainous catchments is often generated by a range of processes including rainfall, snowmelt and glacier melt, and runoff response to water input tends to be rapid. This study identifies some of the strengths and weaknesses of our current knowledge of mountain hydrology in both countries, and suggests that a more comprehensive treatment of the subject will improve the prediction of the hydrological behaviour of such regions.     

Measuring Urban Sustainability: the potential and pitfalls of city rankings

Measuring the sustainability of a city, and ranking the city against other cities, is increasingly seen as a way to achieve urban sustainability. A number of studies have highlighted how Sydney is unsustainable, with two recent ranking exercises appearing to confirm these findings by placing Sydney below many other Australian cities for urban sustainability. These two exercises are situated within international moves towards ranking cities. The article explores the assumptions and criteria used by Mercer in its Eco-City Index and the Australian Conservation Foundation in its Sustainable Cities Index. The conclusion discusses how Sydney could become more sustainable, and identifies why normative urban sustainability rankings should be recognised for their potential while simultaneously being treated with caution.     

Height prediction of water flowing fractured zones based on BP artificial neural network

Factures caused by deformation and destruction of bedrocks over coal seams can easily lead to water flooding(inrush)in mines,a threat to safety production.Fractures with high hydraulic conductivity are good watercourses as well as passages for inrush in mines and tunnels.An accurate height prediction of water flowing fractured zones is a key issue in today's mine water prevention and control.The theory of leveraging BP artificial neural network in height prediction of water flowing fractured zones is analysed and applied in Qianjiaying Mine as an example in this paper.Per the comparison with traditional calculation results,the BP artificial neural network better reflects the geological conditions of the research mine areas and produces more objective,accurate and reasonable results,which can be applied to predict the height of water flowing fractured zones.     

自动与人工观测的气压差异分析

利用陕西省97个气象站2004—2007年间自动与人工平行观测期间的资料,分析了陕西和陕西不同地域人工与自动观测气压的差异并对气压月、年平均值进行了显著性检验。结果表明:人工观测比自动观测日平均气压平均偏高0.21 hPa,标准差为0.30 hPa;气压差值有明显的地域特征;气压对比差值的日、月变化规律明显;DYYZ和CAWS系列测压仪的性能没有明显差异;自动与人工观测时间不同步对定时值有一定影响,但对气候分析没有影响;校准值随时间漂移是气压传感器的主要误差源之一;自动站所测气压可与人工站气压连续使用。     

全国地震重点监视防御区县级机构 防震减灾能力对比研究

以中国地震局在2007年和2012年组织的针对全国地震重点监视防御区的两次大规模问卷调查为依据,以东、中、西部9个省的县级防震减灾机构的工作为研究对象,在对组织机构及经费保障、监测预报能力、工程性防御能力、应急准备能力、宣传教育5个方面共16个技术指标进行统计对比的基础上,就地震重点监视防御区制度的实施情况和实施成效从时间上进行对比分析研究.结果表明,几乎所有指标均有不同程度的提高.此外,本文还针对地方防震减灾工作中存在的一些问题,给出了建议.     

Distinctive and comparative places: Alternative narratives of distinction within international student mobility

Moving beyond the ‘world-class’ institutional model of international student mobility, this paper examines alternative narratives of distinction relating to place of study. Drawing on semi-structured interviews with international students at universities in the UK, Austria and Latvia, we illustrate how students inside and outside mainstream reputable higher education institutions narrate and reconfigure markers of distinction to validate their international mobility and location of study, in part to compete with peers at other (more prestigious) institutions. We demonstrate the importance of lifestyle and experiential places within a global differentiated higher education landscape and argue that many students engage in comparative narratives of place of study to authorise the symbolic capital associated with international education. The findings also consider how experiential places and mobility capital are used for distinction not only during educational mobility but within post-study aspirations.     

中国西部海相盆地地质结构控制油气分布的比较研究

中国西部塔里木、四川、鄂尔多斯等海相盆地的中、下组合是我国油气勘探的重点领域,深化研究油气分布规律是优化勘探部署、提高勘探效益与持续获得勘探发现的关键。本文从盆地地质结构控制油气分布的学术思路出发,立足于近年来的勘探新进展、新发现,应用比较分析方法,揭示油气分布的构造控制规律。研究表明,塔里木、四川、鄂尔多斯等海相盆地位于古亚洲洋构造域、特提斯构造域的复合作用区,是在前寒武纪克拉通基础上发展起来的多旋回叠合盆地;它们经历了Z-D_2、(D_3-)C_2-T、J-Q等三个伸展-聚敛旋回的演化;每一伸展-聚敛旋回发育了独立的生-储-盖组合,伸展期因差异沉降发育好的烃源岩,聚敛期发育大规模展布的储集体与圈闭组合;盆地的基底分区对后期原型盆地的发育和沉积盖层的分布具有明显的制约作用,盆地多旋回叠合,形成了"垂向分层、横向分块"的地质结构,叠合结构样式控制了油气聚集层系与富集区带,普遍存在加里东中期与印支期等两期原生油气成藏期,及燕山中期(J_3-K_1)与喜马拉雅晚期(N_2-Q)等两期油气调整成藏期,新构造运动期油气成藏较为普遍。海相叠合盆地含油气层系多,原型盆地的叠合界面常是重要的油气富集部位,隆起带、断裂带、台缘带(或岩相带)是重要的油气富集区(带),叠合盆地的中下部组合是下一步油气勘探持续突破的有利方向。
