基于MODIS数据的地表覆盖种类与地闪分布特征关系研究

利用2008—2013年MODIS 3级数据土地覆盖类型产品MCD12Q1及重庆市ADTD闪电定位资料,以重庆市内106°~107°E,29°~30°N范围的矩形区域为研究区域,结合频次、强度、时段、地貌等要素对局地内的地表覆盖种类与地闪分布关系进行了研究,结果表明:研究区内地闪分布在各地表覆盖种类上差异显著,在水域、农田、城镇上的闪电密度都高于平均值;地闪中轻中度闪电、强闪电的分布在同一地表覆盖种类上的差异明显,强闪电更易产生于水域、林地种类上;同一地表覆盖种类上地闪分布与季节的关系不明显;地闪活动在某些地表覆盖种类上的昼夜分布具有明显差异;植被覆盖面上的地闪分布与地貌条件关系密切,同一类覆盖面上的强闪电比例与海拔高度呈正相关关系。     

Effect of growing watershed imperviousness on hydrograph parameters and peak discharge

An increasing impervious area is quickly extending over the Wu‐Tu watershed due to the endless demands of the people. Generally, impervious paving is a major result of urbanization and more recently has had the potential to produce more enormous flood disasters than those of the past. In this study, 40 available rainfall–runoff events were chosen to calibrate the applicable parameters of the models and to determine the relationships between the impervious surfaces and the calibrated parameters. Model inputs came from the outcomes of the block kriging method and the non‐linear programming method. In the optimal process, the shuffled complex evolution method and three criteria were applied to compare the observed and simulated hydrographs. The tendencies of the variations of the parameters with their corresponding imperviousness were established through regression analysis. Ten cases were used to examine the established equations of the parameters and impervious covers. Finally, the design flood routines of various return periods were furnished through use of approaches containing a design storm, block kriging, the SCS model, and a rainfall‐runoff model with established functional relationships. These simulated flood hydrographs were used to compare and understand the past, present, and future hydrological conditions of the watershed studied. In the research results, the time to peak of flood hydrographs for various storms was diminished approximately from 11 h to 6 h in different decrements, whereas peak flow increased respectively from 127 m³ s^?1 to 629 m³ s^?1 for different storm intensities. In addition, this study provides a design diagram for the peak flow ratio to help engineers and designers to construct hydraulic structures efficiently and prevent possible damage to human life and property.

Late Glacial fluvial response of the Niers‐Rhine (western Germany) to climate and vegetation change

The Niers valley was part of the Rhine system that came into existence during the maximum Saalian glaciation and was abandoned at the end of the Weichselian. The aim of the study was to explain the Late Pleniglacial and Late Glacial fluvial dynamics and to explore the external forcing factors: climate change, tectonics and sea level. The sedimentary units have been investigated by large‐scale coring transects and detailed cross‐sections over abandoned channels. The temporal fluvial development has been reconstructed by means of geomorphological relationships, pollen analysis and ¹⁴C dating. The Niers‐Rhine experienced a channel pattern change from braided, via a transformational phase, to meandering in the early Late Glacial. This change in fluvial style is explained by climate amelioration at the Late Pleniglacial to Late Glacial transition (at ca. 12.5 k ¹⁴C yr BP) and climate‐related hydrological, lithological and vegetation changes. A delayed fluvial response of ca. 400 ¹⁴C yr (transitional phase) was established. The channel transformations are not related to tectonic effects and sea‐level changes. Successive river systems have similar gradients of ca. 35–40 cm km^?1. A meandering river system dominated the Allerød and Younger Dryas periods. The threshold towards braiding was not crossed during the Younger Dryas, but increased aeolian activity has been observed on the Younger Dryas point bars. The final abandonment of the Niers‐Rhine was dated shortly after the Younger Dryas to Holocene transition. Traces of Laacher See pumice have been found in the Niers valley, indicating that the Niers‐Rhine was still in use during the Younger Dryas. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.     

华南早古生代陆内造山演化

华南早古生代造山带的构造属性长期缺乏统一的定论,且此次构造事件的形成机制与动力学背景研究较少。本文在前人研究成果的基础上,综合沉积环境、岩浆作用与岩浆来源、构造变形以及变质作用等地质证据,再次审视华南早古生代的构造演化过程。研究表明：1）华南广泛发育泥盆系与下伏前泥盆纪地层之间的角度不整合面,早古生代沉积相自江南区到华夏区呈过渡渐变,无同期火山碎屑岩、含鲍马序列的浊积岩等洋盆相关的记录;2）华南出露大规模弥散型面状分布的S型花岗岩,结晶年龄集中于443～423 Ma,在任何方向均无新老演化趋势,且岩浆主要来自壳源物质的熔融再循环,几乎无幔源物质加入;3）华南早古生代以低绿片岩相变质作用为主,仅陈蔡、龙游等地区零星出露绿片岩相—麻粒岩相变质岩;变质时间与岩浆结晶年龄相近,变质P-T-t轨迹均为近等温降压的顺时针轨迹;4）华南早古生代绝大部分构造线为近S-N与NE方向,变形作用以韧性流变为主,以武夷山瑞金—遂昌为轴呈双向逆冲推覆构造模式。根据以上地质事实,本文推断华南早古生代构造事件属性为陆内造山,即华南板块边缘汇聚碰撞产生的应力,经岩石圈远距离传播至大陆内部的远程响应。     

塔里木盆地西北缘皮羌辉长岩体的时代讨论

皮羌辉长岩体位于塔里木盆地柯坪断隆西部,皮羌村北约15 km处。该岩体的围岩包括志留系、泥盆系和石炭系—二叠系,新近系不整合覆盖其上。采集该辉长岩样品进行单矿物分离,取分离出的斜长石进行Ar-Ar定年。700～1 400 ℃的8个加热阶段析出的39Ar为总量的95.89％,在坪谱图上得到一个较稳定的坪,坪年龄为265.5±1.2 Ma; 与之相对应的等时线年龄为267.29±5.62 Ma。结合区域地质分析,皮羌辉长岩体的侵入时代为中二叠世早期; 是塔里木二叠纪岩浆活动的一部分。其侵入后基本未受后期构造热事件影响。

四川大梁子和天宝山铅锌矿床地球化学差异及地质意义

通过矿床宏观地质特征和地球化学特征的讨论,认为天宝山和大梁子矿床是构造-岩浆-热液形成的矿床,形成于晚燕山期-喜马拉雅期,与印度-欧亚板块碰撞作用诱发的陆内造山有关.天宝山和大梁子矿床地球化学特征差异,是构造-岩浆-热液运移路径所在地质环境的差异所致,反映了双会地区在复杂地质演化过程中,沿构造带走向所形成的地质环境差异.

Fossil hyrax dung and evidence of Late Pleistocene and Holocene vegetation types in the Namib Desert

Pollen was derived from fossil dung of herbivorous hyraxes, deposited in a rock shelter on the highest mountain in Namibia, Dâures or Brandberg, situated on the Namib Desert margin. Radiocarbon dating ranging in age between modern times and 30 000 yr BP showed it represents the first empirical pollen evidence of continental palaeovegetation during the Late Pleistocene along the western escarpment of southern Africa. The initial results indicate Last Glacial Maximum vegetation differed totally from the current pattern as vegetation types were dominated by small Asteraceae shrubs, in contrast to those of the Holocene and modern times which show more succulents, grass and woody elements (arboreal pollen). The results suggest that Cape floral communities did not reach into the tropics along the western escarpment of Africa, despite such pollen types occurring in marine cores.

A viscoplastic model including anisotropic damage for the time dependent behaviour of rock

This paper presents a new constitutive model for the time dependent mechanical behaviour of rock which takes into account both viscoplastic behaviour and evolution of damage with respect to time. This model is built by associating a viscoplastic constitutive law to the damage theory. The main characteristics of this model are the account of a viscoplastic volumetric strain (i.e. contractancy and dilatancy) as well as the anisotropy of damage. The latter is described by a second rank tensor. Using this model, it is possible to predict delayed rupture by determining time to failure, in creep tests for example. The identification of the model parameters is based on experiments such as creep tests, relaxation tests and quasi‐static tests. The physical meaning of these parameters is discussed and comparisons with lab tests are presented. The ability of the model to reproduce the delayed failure observed in tertiary creep is demonstrated as well as the sensitivity of the mechanical response to the rate of loading. The model could be used to simulate the evolution of the excavated damage zone around underground openings. Copyright © 2005 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
