THE FOUNDATION AND MOVEMENT OF TROPICAL SEMI-GEOSTROPHIC ADAPTATION

The breakdown and foundation of geostrophic balance is one of the important movements inthe mid-and high-latitude atmosphere and oceans.In the tropical area,the value of Coriolis pa-rameter is so small that it is difficult to satisfy the bi-geostrophic equilibrium between the pressureand velocity fields.However,in the tropical area,the zonal velocity of some motions in the atmo-sphere and oceans is large,so the Coriolis force is not small,geostrophic balance can exist in zonaldirection,i.e.semi-geostrophic balance.Furthermore,in the dominant area of Hadley circulationin the atmosphere or the area near the ocean meridional boundary,the meridional velocity is large,so geostrophic balance can also exist in meridional direction.In this paper,the process of the dis-persion of inertial gravity wave and the foundation of semi-geostrophic balance are first discussed.Second,the adjustment process between the velocity and pressure fields after adaptation is alsoviewed,and the scale criterion of the semi-geostrophic adaptation is discussed,i.e.for the motionwith meridional scale greater than the equatorial Rossby radius of deformation,the velocity andpressure fields after adaptation change to fit the initial pressure field;on the contrary,the fieldschange to fit the initial zonal velocity field,and the strength of the fields after adaptation dependson the zonal scale.

肃南5.7级地震过程剪切波分裂特征

剪切波分裂应用于地震预报中的３个主要困难是：（１）如何自动定量识别剪切波快慢波到时；（２）用以认识其基本特征的震例太少；（３）因各次地震的复杂性，对所给剪切波分裂结果难以给出恰当的解释，本文研究了１９８８年１１月２２日甘肃肃南５．７级地震过程剪切波分裂的特征。所用资料为１９８８年８月到１９９０年８月中法合作张掖数字台网的记录。通过对张掖～肃南地区地壳结构模型的研究，确认了所用各次地震的真实出射角基     

MHD激波解的讨论

从Ｒａｎｋｉｎｅ－Ｈｕｇｏｎｉｏｔ关系出发，以激波切向磁场ξ、上游激波角θ_１和等离子体β_１值为参数研究各类激波解的特性及相互关系，阐明各类激波强度随介质β值的变化规律．结果指出：（１）在ξ＜－１的Ⅰ_ｂ型中间激波区和ξ＞４的快激波区存在双解；（２）慢激波可以直接和中间激波连接，但不能和快激波直接连接；（３）各类激波强度（用激波密度比衡量）随β_１值均有变化：Ⅰ_ｂ型中间激波上支随β_１值增加而下降，下支则上升；Ⅰ_ａ型中间激波和慢激波都随β_１值增加而下降；快激波双解区上支随β_１值增加而下降。下支上升；快激波在１＜ξ＜４区间的解随β_１值增加而上升。     

苍山5．2级地震前地震波速比的异常变化

本文对苍山５．２级地震前，鲁南地区地震波速比的时、空分布特征进行了分析，发现５．２级地震前，该区波速比的时、空分布都出现了较明显的低值异常。时间分布的异常形态为下降—低值—恢复—发震。空间分布则为近似圆形的低值异常区。异常区外围地区显示地震平静。苍山５．２级地震前，我们曾根据该区的波速比异常变化，对鲁南地区提出了预报意见。     

云龙台固体潮观测对地震监测能力的评价

对云龙台的水管倾斜仪观测数据进行了倾斜固体潮的潮汐分析，发现ＥＷ和ＮＳ两个分量的振幅因子异常变化与地震有较好的对应关系。由于潮汐分析方法本身的科学性和严密性，故振幅因子误差小、精度高；又因为对潮汐谐波波群的选择，避免了以太阳日为基础的周期性干扰，Ｍ２、Ｏ１波振幅因子的地震异常识别则简易可行，并且可信度高。云龙台的固体潮观测具有较强的地震监测能力。

Inversion of Q value structure beneath the Tibet Plateau

A total of 11 earthquakes with 15 Rayleigh wave paths, recorded at 11 broadband digital PASSCAL seismometers installed in the Tibet Plateau by the Sino-U.S. joint research group, were used to determine the phase velocity and attenuation coefficient of surface waves in periods of 10–130 s. The average shear wave velocity and quality factor {ie271-1} structures in the crust and upper mantle were obtained in this region. The result shows the average {ie271-2} is low and there exists a high attenuation ({ie271-3}=93–141) layer in the crust. The depth range of the low {ie271-4} value layer (16–42 km) is consistent with the range of low velocity layer (21–51 km) in the crust. Below 63 km in the lower crust, {ie271-5} decreases with depth from 114 to 34 at depth of 180 km. The low shear wave velocity and low value of {ie271-6} at the same depth range in the crust indicate that the rocks in the range is probably melted or partially melted. According to the shear wave velocity structure, the average thickness of the crust is about 71 km and a clear velocity discontiniuty appears at the depth of 51 km. The low-velocity zone (4. 26 km/s) at depth of 96–180 km may be corresponding to the asthenosphere. Contribution No. 96A0047, Institute of Geophysics, SSB, China.
