Seasonal inundation patterns in two large savanna floodplains of South America: the Llanos de Moxos (Bolivia) and the Llanos del Orinoco (Venezuela and Colombia)

Inundation patterns in two of the largest savanna floodplains of South America were studied by analysis of the 37‐GHz polarization difference observed by the Scanning Multichannel Microwave Radiometer (Nimbus‐7 satellite). Flooded area was estimated at monthly intervals for January 1979 through to August 1987 using mixing models that account for the major landscape units with distinctive microwave emission characteristics. Results are presented separately for five subregions in each of the two floodplain regions to show the spatial as well as temporal variability in inundation patterns. The total area inundated during the 9 years varied between 2069 and 78 460 km² in the Llanos de Moxos (also spelled as Mojos; median area, 23 383 km²) and 1278 and 105 454 km² in the Llanos del Orinoco (median, 25 374 km²), not including the open‐water area of permanent lakes and river channels. The correlation between flooded area and river stage was used to extend the inundation records over a 30‐year period in the Moxos (1967–97) and a 58‐year period (1927–85) in the Orinoco. Interannual variability in inundation is greater in the Moxos than the Orinoco. Comparison of these data, however, with a previously published analysis of the Pantanal wetland shows that inundation patterns in these two floodplain regions are not as variable across years as they are in the Pantanal.

Low post-Cenomanian denudation depths across the Brazilian Northeast: Implications for long-term landscape evolution at a transform continental margin

The Brazilian Northeast affords good opportunities for obtaining reliable timings and rates of landscape evolution based on stratigraphic correlations across a vast region. The landscape formed in the context of an episodically fluctuating but continuously falling base level since the Cenomanian. After formation of the transform passive margin in Aptian times, landscape development was further driven by a swell-like uplift with its crest situated  300 km from the coastline. The seaward flank of this swell or broad monocline between the interior Araripe and coastal Potiguar basins was eroded, and currently forms a deeply embayed plain bordered by a semi-circular, north-facing erosional escarpment. The post-Cenomanian uplift caused an inversion of the Cretaceous basins and generated a landscape in which the most elevated landforms correspond either to resistant Mesozoic sedimentary caprock, or to eroded stumps of syn-rift Cretaceous footwall uplands. Denudation in the last 90 My never exceeded mean rates of 10 m·My^− 1 and exhumed a number of Cretaceous stratigraphic unconformities. As a result, some topographic surfaces at low elevations are effectively Mesozoic land surfaces that became re-exposed in Cenozoic times. The Neogene Barreiras Formation forms a continuous and mostly clastic apron near the coast. It testifies to the last peak of erosion in the hinterland and coincided with the onset of more arid climates at  13 Ma or earlier. The semi-circular escarpment is not directly related to the initial breakup rift flanks, which had been mostly eroded before the end of the Mesozoic, but the cause and exact timing of post-Cenomanian crustal upwarping are poorly constrained. It could perhaps have been a flexural response of the low-rigidity lithosphere to sediment loads on the margin, and thus a slowly ongoing process since the late Cretaceous. Uplift could instead be the consequence of a more discrete dynamic event related either to Oligocene magmatism in the region, or to continental-scale far-field stresses determined by Andean convergence.     

基于STA/LTA岩石破裂微震信号实时识别算法及工程应用

微震监测获取的数据中通常混有大量的非岩石破裂信号,该类信号目前主要通过人工经验进行识别与滤除,这消耗了大量的宝贵时间,严重影响灾害的防治和救援效率。对大量微震信号进行分析,发现STA/LTA算法在信号实时触发后能大致表征波形振幅和频率的变化,岩石破裂信号和非岩石破裂信号在延迟位置处R值具有差异性。基于此,提出了岩石破裂微震信号实时识别算法。新算法应用到白鹤滩水电站地下厂房、红透山和阿舍勒铜矿深部采场3个工程,岩石破裂事件识别的准确率分别是85.98%、92.45%和91.06%,非岩石破裂事件滤除的准确率分别是72.06%、83.11%和49.87%。该算法使基于岩石破裂微震信息的岩石工程灾害自动分析与预警成为可能,具有重要意义。     

基于引力搜索法的隧道围岩微震定位研究

针对目前深埋隧道围岩微震源定位难且精度不高等问题,采用启发式算法——引力搜索法（GSA）对隧道围岩微震源位置进行搜索,并将该算法与粒子群算法和单纯形法的搜索结果进行对比。发现在双速度模型和三速度模型下,引力搜索法相较于粒子群算法和单纯形法,都具有快速收敛、精度较高的优点,且与震源位置的距离能够控制在10 m以内。对双速度模型,引力搜索法的精度相对于单纯形法提高了83.71%,相对于粒子群算法提高了7.77%。对三速度模型,引力搜索法的精度相对于单纯形法提高了70.67%,相对于粒子群算法提高了39.36%。可见,该方法为深埋隧道微围岩震源定位提供了一种新思路。     

结合被动微波和光学遥感的“超级寒潮”广东 地表温度特征及其对马铃薯生长的影响

利用被动微波可穿透云层的优势,基于GCOM-W1/AMSR2（Global Change Observation Mission-Water/ Advanced Microwave Scanning Radiometer 2）星载被动微波传感器的多通道亮度温度数据,反演了2016年1月下旬“超级寒潮”过程的广东省每日地表温度,分析了寒潮过程中广东省地表温度的时空变化特征。结果表明：在寒潮前后,广东省地表温度呈现出明显的先下降而后上升的趋势,寒潮过程带来的地表最低温度在广东北部大部分地区达到了277 K（4℃）,西南大部分地区为280~282 K（7~9℃）,其余大部分地区278~279 K（5~6℃）;降温幅度在广东南部地区达到了8~12 K（8~12℃）,北部大部分地区为5~7 K（5~7℃）。此外,利用归一化植被指数（NDVI）对植被生长的指示作用,基于HJ-1 A/B卫星的CCD传感器的多通道反射率数据,计算了近3年冬季广东省典型马铃薯种植区域马铃薯叶片的NDVI值,结果表明：马铃薯叶片的NDVI值在此次寒潮过程后出现了明显的下降,大部分地区（55.4%）马铃薯NDVI降低了0.1~0.2,部分地区（17.2%）马铃薯NDVI下降了0.2~0.3;进一步对比此次“超级寒潮”后同时段的前2年数据,发现寒潮后马铃薯叶片NDVI相对于正常年份也低了0.2,表明马铃薯叶片NDVI下降的主要原因是寒潮带来的低温,而不只是马铃薯的正常老化现象。NDVI的降低表明大部分地区马铃薯生长受到了抑制,马铃薯生长状况的这一变化也通过现场调查得到了证实。     

基于改进FCLS算法的南极海冰密集度估算及算法比较

海冰具有良好的热力隔绝效应,它通过影响海洋和大气的热交换进而影响全球的气候变化。海冰密集度是极区海冰研究的重要指标之一。为实现高空间分辨率多类型海冰密集度的估算,本文将亮温极化梯度率和光谱梯度率引入基于全约束最小二乘法(fully constrained least squares,FCLS)的海冰密集度估算方法,并利用南极海冰过程与气候计划(Antarctic Sea Ice Processes and Climate,ASPe Ct)对改进方法的精度进行验证,然后与NASA Team2(NT2)算法和ARTIST Sea Ice(ASI)算法获得的海冰密集度结果进行了对比分析。结果显示,3种算法中本研究的方法精度最高,全年均方差13.8%,偏差为-0.7%;改进的方法对多年冰的估算精度优于一年冰。     

Rifting and early evolution of ancient ocean basins: the record of the Mesozoic Tethys and of the Galicia-Newfoundland margins

Although of different age, the undeformed Cretaceous Iberia/Newfoundland margins and the relics of the Jurassic Briançonnais/Adriatic margins preserved in the Alps document a similar spatial and temporal evolution of rifting suggesting that the evolution of both pairs of margins was controlled by the same processes. Rifting appears to depend strongly on the thermal history of the lithosphere, which controls the rheology and consequently also the structural evolution of the margin. The tectonic evolution of non-volcanic margins appears to be distinctly different from that of volcanic ones.
