世纪之交的水文研究

基于第二十二届国际大地测量与地球物理大会的动态,分析出世纪之交水文学研究的三大基本特点.其一是强调人类活动对水循环的影响的研究,主要表现为研究土地利用变化对来自面源的氮负荷的影响、城市化进程加快对地表和地下水质的影响、河流对水文系统、泥沙输送及营养负荷的变化的生态响应和地下水和地表水在质与量上的相互作用.其二是十分重视区域尺度的水文的研究.包括区域及全球尺度资料库的建立和区域水分通量的计算.其三是集成应用示踪剂、遥感及先进的水文测验技术进行水文机理研究.     

珠江三角洲网河区水文与地貌特征变异及其成因

采用珠江三角洲网河区数十年来的人类活动和水文特征资料，通过分析人类活动的水文响应特征，发现该地区近10年多来水文情势发生了显著异变。主要表现在河道人工采砂以及大洪水冲刷导致河床下芬，部分断面水位－流量关系异变。部分河段冲淤特征倒转，汊河分水分沙比发生变化。围垦，臾，码头建设以及水闸的不合理调度使得水量集中，蓄滞洪能力减小，河道流量增加。三角洲上部河床剧烈下切，汇流速度加快；而口门多呈淤只状态，加之海平面上升，潮流顶托阻水，三角洲腹地水位抬升，洪涝威胁加剧。剧烈人类活动是珠江三角洲网河区水文与地貌特征变异的直接原因。     

塔里木盆地南部2000年来的环境变迁

根据考古资料、文献记载、遥感资料和实地考察,认为塔里木盆地南部2000年来的自然环境发生了重大变化,主要表现为人类活动范围、沙漠及河流等方面的演变。研究表明,河流变迁是其它两个变化因素的先导,并对探讨古河流演变,认为古代喀拉哈什河与玉龙哈什河曾分流,构成各自的水系,由于第四纪地质构造运动的影响,古代水系强烈变化,并演化为现今态势。原先沿河而居的古城,则因河流变迁而遗弃于沙漠之中。     

A framework for mixed-use decomposition based on temporal activity signatures extracted from big geo-data

ABSTRACT

Mixed use has been extensively applied as an urban planning principle and hinders the study of single urban functions. To address this problem, it is worth decomposing the mixed use. Inspired by the concept of spectral unmixing in remote sensing applications, this paper proposes a framework for mixed-use decomposition based on big geo-data. Mixed-use decomposition in terms of human activities differs from traditional land use research, and it is more reasonable to infer the actual urban function of land. The framework consists of four steps, namely temporal activity signature extraction, urban function base curve extraction, mixed-use decomposition, and result validation. First, the temporal activity signatures (TASs) of each zone are extracted as the proxy of human activity patterns. Second, the diurnal TASs of routine activities are extracted as urban function base curves (i.e. endmembers). Third, a linear decomposition model is used to decompose the mixed use and obtain multiple results (urban function composition, dynamic activity proportions, and the mixing index). Finally, result validation strategies are concluded. This framework offers method extensibility and has few requirements for the input data. It is validated by means of a case study of Beijing, based on a social media check-in dataset.     

Anthropogenic changes in the sediment composition of Lake Gości& aogon;ż (central Poland), during the last 330 yrs*

According to historical sources, the development of settlement around Lake Goci& aogon; during the last 330 yrs was intense at two time periods: the second half of the 1700's, and from ca. 1880 until 1944. The small farms were then abandoned, following which the lake surroundings were planted with forest trees. The presented study of human influence on the lake ecosystem and surrounding vegetation has been based on analyses of general sediment composition and its chemistry, pollen, Cyanobacteria, Chlorophyceae, Rotatoria, Cladocera, and a preliminary diatom survey. The history of human impact has been divided into four phases: 1. Phase of small local hamlets (before ca. 1770): The human impact was rather moderate then, but the cultivation of Canabis sativa, Secale cereale and later of Fagopyrum is evidenced from that time. 2. Phase of Hollandii settlement (ca. 1770-1863). Its influence is indicated first by the recession of deciduous wood (Corylus, Carpinus) stands, which triggered drastic drop of calcium in sediments. The development of rural economy in the area, including, an extension of agriculture (Secale and other cereals, crucifers, potatoes), and animal breeding based partly on grazing in the forest, is evidenced only after 1820. 3. Phase of German colonization (1863-1944): In the early periods (before 1910) the pollen spectra do not document any essential change in the type of farming, however, a serious disturbance of the lake ecosystem and sediment chemistry is evidenced by the blooms of Araphidinae diatoms and Tetraedron minimum, a maximum frequency of Bosmina longirostris, disturbances of the regular spring blooms of Chrysophyceae, appearance of vivianite, distinct maxima of organic matter, potassium, and iron concentration in sediments and an increase of the sedimentation rate. An intensification of agricultural activities commenced around 1910; woods, including also pinewoods, were then heavily devastated, and farming extended on poor soils, what was symptomatic for the general poverty of population. Coincidently in the lake, Centriceae showed blooms, Araphidinae diatoms and Tetraedron minimum developed, and the content of potassium, iron and phosphorus increased substantially, indicating altogether rising eutrophication. 4. Phase of restoration of the natural landscape (after 1945): The farm degradation from ca. 1944 is very weakly expressed in pollen data, which show a substantial fall of farming indicators from 1953/6 only, when the whole area was used for forest plantation. It was accompanied by a certainly spontaneous development of Betula and Alnus woods, this process progressing till recent time. The gradual extinction of farming activity near Lake Goci was accompanied by abrupt changes in the lake ecosystem, expressed by the restored blooms of Chrysophyceae expansion of planktonic Cladocera, rapid decline of phosphorus and extinction of vivianite from sediments. As documented by the drop of Cu/Zn ratio, lake hypolimnion has been weakly oxidized since 1949, what was probably responsible for the drop of Fe and Mn content in sediments. Increasing strength of overturns affected preservation of laminae in sediments, which almost completely disappeared after 1966.

南京城市土壤某些元素的富集特征及其对浅层地下水的影响

本研究以南京市的公园、校园绿地、道路绿地和郊区菜地等不同功能区的土壤为对象,对土壤的磷素和重金属以及一些土壤剖面点位的地下水组成进行了分析.研究发现城市土壤构成了区别于自然背景的某些元素(如磷和重金属)的地球化学垒,形成了明显的元素富集区域,其中磷素含量是背景土壤的数倍甚至十数倍,Pb含量也远高出背景土壤,60%以上样品达到中等污染程度以上.从磷素在剖面中的积累模式可以看出,城市土壤中磷含量最高的层次出现在表层以下的不同深度,说明土壤经历了不同的扰动过程,这意味着在城市发展过程中,土壤的性质遭受强烈的人为活动影响,元素在土壤中的分布形态可以指示不同的利用历史.质量改变后的土壤对地下水等环境产生影响,使地下水的组成发生改变,其中磷素含量直接受到土壤的影响,效区菜地地下水中硝态氮含量极高,而本研究尚未发现地下水中的重金属含量与土壤有显著相关.
