翡翠的鉴定与价值评估

翡翠是中国人最喜爱的玉石品种之一,近几年来,中高档翡翠的市场价格已有十几倍甚至几十倍的增长。人工合成翡翠也已有报道研制出来,其与高档翡翠差别更是微乎其微,这给宝玉石鉴定工作提出了更新、更高的要求。＂黄金有价玉无价＂只有正确判断翡翠的品种、品质级别,才能更好地评估其价值。该文对翡翠的矿物组成、化学成分、结晶习性、结构、力学性质及翡翠的常规鉴定方法和红外光谱在翡翠鉴定中的应用进行了论述,提出了对翡翠的颜色、透明度、质地、净度、质量大小等进行品质分级并对其对价值评估的影响进行了阐述。

地球物理反问题中的随机反演理论

本文从最大后验概率密度观点出发，在数据噪音向量和待求模型向量为具有零均值的独立高斯随机过程的假设前提下，建立起了随机反演的非线性系统方程；给出了模型方差估计的函数表达式，并在文章最后，证明了反演解的稀疏性，即解释了随机反演的输出解的高分辨率特征。文章在最小二乘反演方法的基础上，发展并完善了随机反演方法的理论基础；揭示了随机反演方法与最小二乘反演方法之间的本质区别；阐述了随机反演方法的优越性，并指出了其广阔的应用前景。     

Retreating to nature: rethinking 'therapeutic landscapes'

There is a long history of removing oneself from 'society' in order to recuperate or repair. This paper considers a yoga and massage retreat in Southern Spain, and what opportunities this retreat experience might offer for recuperation and the creation of healthy bodies. The paper positions 'nature' as an active participant, and as 'enrolled' in the experiences of the retreat as a 'therapeutic landscape', and questions how and what particular aspects of yoga practice (in intimate relation with place) give rise to therapeutic experiences.     

黄土的湿陷性与击实试验指标关系研究

进行了黄土的击实试验,提出了击实率的概念,拓展了CART(classification and regression trees)决策树算法的功能。将其用于相关性挖掘,进行了原状黄土湿陷性与击实率等指标的相关性挖掘,结果表明,击实率与湿陷系数具有相关性,击实率与最优含水率状态的击实率呈显著负相关性。根据试验及分析结果提出黄土在击实过程中的变形特性可反映黄土的湿陷性,黄土的击实效果同其湿陷性具相关性。这一研究为黄土湿陷性的评价提出了一条新的思路,同时成果具有实用性。     

Influence of Tourists′ Environmental Tropisms on Their Attitudes to Tourism and Nature Conservation in Natural Tourist Destinations: A Case Study of Jiuzhaigou National Park in China

People′s environmental tropism has an effect on their understanding of tourism-nature relationship,and also influences their attitudes to natural resources utilization and environmental protection.Taking Jiuzhaigou National Park of China as a study case,the authors conducted some quantitative analyses with the tools of SPSS 16.0 and LISREL 8.7,to explore the influence of tourists′ environmental tropism on their attitudes to tourism and nature conservation in the natural tourist destination.Three hypotheses ...     

Colonial transformations: Nature, progress and science in the Christchurch Botanic Gardens

Abstract:   The Christchurch Botanic Gardens are popularly portrayed, both positively and negatively, as an icon of colonial heritage. This paper explores the cultural, social and scientific functions of the Gardens in the 19th century, and argues that they did not simply support colonization. Rather, the Gardens were a site of negotiation, conflict and contradictory meaning. The aim is to show the colonial project, embodied in the space of the Botanic Gardens, as fraught and vulnerable, rather than as the extension of panoptic European power.     

软岩井巷喷射混凝土抗渗机制及模拟试验研究

针对豫西滑动构造区软岩巷道在喷射混凝土支护条件下的抗渗性能问题,从立方定律基本理论着手,结合地下水层流渗透特点,按照不同的施工条件进行了黏结面渗透性能的模拟试验,并导出了相应的计算公式。通过试验结果的对比和分析,可以清晰了解到岩性、粗糙度、界面剂和大型刻槽等各种影响因素之间相互作用的过程和机理。即：（1）黏结面作为结构上的薄弱面,其渗透性要远远大于岩体和混凝土本体的渗透性,而粗颗粒软岩黏结面的渗透性也要远远大于相应的细颗粒软岩;（2）限制岩体结构面的粗糙度、使用各种界面剂以及布置适当的人工刻槽均能提高黏结面的抗渗性能;（3）岩体结构的荷载条件是黏结面渗透性能的一个重要影响因素。     

On the way to a better state? The role of NGOs in the planning and implementation of protected areas in Brazil

Protected areas are considered some of the most versatile as well as important instruments of nature conservation and environmental policies. The `classic' model of nature conservation aims at the isolation of large areas in order to preserve their `pristine' nature from human interference. However, the transfer of this model to developing countries led to serious conflicts with local people. From a socio-geographical viewpoint, protected areas can be understood as regulative tools for the shaping and controlling of space. This approach helps to recognise the influence of distinct modes of appropriation of space and nature on the emergence and course of conflicts. In the present article it is used to analyse the leading role played by Brazilian NGOs in the transformation of the classic model of protected area management at the beginning of the nineties. Two case studies – dealing with the implementation of the Amazonian Mamirauá Reserve and with the reform of the Brazilian protected area legislation – are used to illustrate not only the success of the new approaches, but also the expectations and contradictions which surround the future development of protected areas in Brazil.
