再分析风场驱动下的南海波浪模拟误差

本文采用国际上广泛应用的3种再分析风场驱动WAVEWATCH III模型得到了南海波浪后报数据,并基于全球卫星高度计波高数据和我国沿海浮标实测数据对不同的风场计算结果进行了对比分析,分析表明3种风场的误差特征相差明显,其中ERA-40风场偏小,CFSR风场非常适合模拟常见天气的波浪过程,NCDC风场适合模拟大浪过程。论文重点以NCDC风场后报波浪数据分析了波浪模型模拟误差特点,发现在台风频发的的南海北部海域,再分析风场易低估大值波高,而在季风影响明显的南海南部海域,再分析风场易高估波高。浮标周边2°范围海域内的卫星高度计波高模拟误差趋势与浮标波高模拟误差趋势相似,浮标波高数据的统计特征值与"2度法"提取的卫星高度计数据统计特征值具有较高一致性。

局部表面参数化的实景三角网模型语义增强方法

倾斜摄影测量方法已可自动获取城市规模的实景三角网模型,然而散乱的三角网缺乏精细的几何结构和功能语义信息。为克服上述问题,提出一种局部表面参数化的实景三角网模型语义增强方法:将具有语义信息的独立三维部件与实景三角网模型的无缝融合问题,通过定义三维表面结构树,转换为局部区域的三角网替换操作;在待融合区域附近,将原实景三角网模型和替换的三维语义部件,通过局部参数化表达,UV展开为二维平面三角网;在二维平面上构建约束Delaunay三角网(CDT),实现两模型的无缝拼接,逆映射至三维空间并自动重建语义部件。通过深圳某区域的倾斜影像进行的试验证明,本文方法能有效实现具有开放边界和语义信息的部件模型与表面模型的无缝融合。与商业软件Maya对比,这种基于插入、融合的手段对提高建模效率具有实用价值。     

Variability of surface velocity in the Kuroshio Current and adjacent waters derived from Argos drifter buoys and satellite altimeter data

By combining Argos drifter buoys and TOPEX/POSEIDON altimeter data, the time series of sea-surface velocity fields in the Kuroshio Current (KC) and adjacent regions are established. And the variability of the KC from the Luzon Strait to the Tokara Strait is studied based on the velocity fields. The results show that the dominant variability period varies in different segments of the KC: The primary period near the Luzon Strait and to the east of Taiwan Island is the intra-seasonal time scale; the KC on the continental shelf of the ECS is the steadiest segment without obvious periodicity, while the Tokara Strait shows the period of seasonal variability. The diverse periods are caused by the Rossby waves propagating from the interior ocean, with adjustments in topography of island chain and local wind stress.

Development of a new index for integrating landscape patterns with ecological processes at watershed scale

Understanding the relationship between landscape patterns and ecological processes has been a central yet challenging research theme in landscape ecology. Over the past decades, many landscape metrics have been proposed but few directly incorporated ecological processes. In this paper, we developed a landscape index, namely, location-weighted landscape index (LWLI) to highlight the role of landscape type in ecological processes, such as nutrient losses and soil erosion. Within the framework of the Lorenz curve theory, we develop this index by integrating landscape pattern and point-based measurements at a watershed scale. The index can be used to characterize the contribution of landscape pattern to ecological processes (e.g. nutrient losses) with respect to a specific monitoring point in a watershed. Through a case study on nutrient losses in an agricultural area in northeastern China, we found that nutrient losses tended to be higher for a watershed with a higher LWLI value, and vice versa. It implied that LWLI can be used to evaluate the potential risk of nutrient losses or soil erosion by comparing their values across watersheds. In addition, this index can be extended to characterize ecological processes, such as the effect of landscape pattern on wildlife inhabitation and urban heat island effect. Finally, we discuss several problems that should be paid attention to when applying this index to a heterogeneous landscape site.     

Influence of the earth rotation on the interfacial wave solutions and wave-induced tangential stress in a two-layer fluid system

Interfacial waves and wave-induced tangential stress are studied for geostrophic small amplitude waves of two-layer .uid with a top free surface and a .at bottom. The solutions were deduced from the general form of linear .uid dynamic equations of two-layer .uid under the f -plane approximation, and wave-induced tangential stress were estimated based on the solutions obtained. As expected, the solutions derived from the present work include as special cases those obtained by Sun et al. (2004. Science in China, Ser. D, 47(12): 1147–1154) for geostrophic small amplitude surface wave solutions and wave-induced tangential stress if the density of the upper layer is much smaller than that of the lower layer. The results show that the interface and the surface will oscillate synchronously, and the in.uence of the earth’s rotation both on the surface wave solutions and the interfacial wave solutions should be considered.
