Schooling behaviour and environmental forcing in relation to anchoveta distribution: An analysis across multiple spatial scales

The Peruvian anchovy or anchoveta (Engraulis ringens) supports the highest worldwide fishery landings and varies in space and time over many scales. Here we present the first comprehensive sub-mesocale study of anchoveta distribution in relation to the environment. During November 2004, we conducted a behavioural ecology survey off central Peru and used a series of observational and sampling tools including SST and CO₂ sensors, Niskin bottles, CTD probes, zooplankton sampling, stomach content analysis, echo-sounder, multibeam sonar, and bird observations. The sub-mesoscale survey areas were chosen from mesoscale acoustic surveys. A routine coast-wide (2000 km) acoustic survey performed just after the sub-mesoscale surveys, provided information at an even larger population scale. The availability of nearly concurrent sub-mesoscale, mesoscale and coast-wide information on anchoveta distribution allowed for a unique multi-scale synthesis. At the sub-mesoscale (100s m to km) physical processes (internal waves and frontogenesis) concentrated plankton into patches and determined anchoveta spatial distribution. At the mesoscale (10s km) location relative to the zone of active upwelling (and age of the upwelled water) and the depth of the oxycline had strong impacts on the anchoveta. Finally, over 100s km the size of the productive area, as defined by the upwelled cold coastal waters, was the determining factor. We propose a conceptual view of the relative importance of social behaviour and environmental (biotic and abiotic) processes on the spatial distribution of anchoveta. Our ecological space has two y-axis; one based on self-organization (social behaviour), and the other based on the environmental processes. At scales from the individual (10s cm), to the nucleus (m), social behaviour (e.g. the need to school) drives spatial organization. At scales larger than the school, environmental forces are the main driver of fish distribution. The conceptual ecosystem models presented in this paper may provide the final links needed to develop accurate forecasts of the spatial distribution of anchoveta over multiple scales.

峨眉山高钛玄武岩物源的不均一性研究

对二滩地区高钛玄武岩物源研究表明,该区岩石可分为高钛-1和高钛-2两种岩石类型。其反映了二滩高钛玄武岩浆物源的不均一性,这种不均一性主要表现在:1)微量元素Zr,Sr含量明显不同;2)部分熔融程度和熔融压力不同;3)岩浆的结晶分异不同;4)Pb同位素比值不同。这可能是深源地幔柱(来自核-幔边界或下地幔)在上升过程中携带的不同物质发生部分熔融所致。

将偏最小二乘回归（PLS）与神经网络（NN）耦合，建立了储层参数预报模型。利用偏最小二乘对影响储层参数的诸多因素进行分析，提取对因变量影响强的成分，从而克服了变量间的多重相关性问题，降低了神经网络的输入维数；同时，利用神经网络建模可以较好地解决非线性的储层参数预测问题。计算实例表明，本耦合模型的拟合和预报精度优于独立使用神经网络模型的精度。

Experimental study of ore gabbro liquid immiscibility

The magma immiscibility is that an originallyuniform magma split into two liquids with differentcompositions and properties because of the changes oftemperature, pressure and composition in the mag-matic processes. The phenomenon is ubiquitous in thenature and industrial production. For example, magmaimmiscibility has been widely regarded as the mainmechanism of formation of the Cu-Ni sulphide depositAs early as the 1920s, some geologists[1] noted that anon-silicate magma, which is mainly com…

A mathematical and numerical model for reactive fluid flow systems

We formulate mathematical and numerical models for multispecies, multi-phase and non-isothermal reactive fluid flow in porous media focusing on the chemical reactions and the transport of solutes. Mass conservation and stability in the time integration are emphasized. We use cell-centered finite volume differencing in space and an implicit Runge-Kutta method in time. Assuming two space dimensions, we introduce flux approximation for arbitrarily shaped convex quadrilaterals. On equidistant and variable sized rectangular grids we choose limited κ= related schemes to approximate the advective flux and the central difference scheme for the diffusive flux. On non-rectangular grids we recommend the VF9 scheme for the estimation of the diffusive flux. Our model exists as a code. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
