Critical rainfall statistics for predicting watershed flood responses: rethinking the design storm concept

Recent advances have been made to modernize estimates of probable precipitation scenarios; however, researchers and engineers often continue to assume that rainfall events can be described by a small set of event statistics, typically average intensity and event duration. Given the easy availability of precipitation data and advances in desk‐top computational tools, we suggest that it is time to rethink the ‘design storm’ concept. Design storms should include more holistic characteristics of flood‐inducing rain events, which, in addition to describing specific hydrologic responses, may also be watershed or regionally specific. We present a sensitivity analysis of nine precipitation event statistics from observed precipitation events within a 60‐year record for Tompkins County, NY, USA. We perform a two‐sample Kolmogorov–Smirnov (KS) test to objectively identify precipitation event statistics of importance for two related hydrologic responses: (1) peak outflow from the Six Mile Creek watershed and (2) peak depth within the reservoir behind the Six Mile Creek Dam. We identify the total precipitation depth, peak hourly intensity, average intensity, event duration, interevent duration, and several statistics defining the temporal distribution of precipitation events to be important rainfall statistics to consider for predicting the watershed flood responses. We found that the two hydrologic responses had different sets of statistically significant parameters. We demonstrate through a stochastic precipitation generation analysis the effects of starting from a constrained parameter set (intensity and duration) when predicting hydrologic responses as opposed to utilizing an expanded suite of rainfall statistics. In particular, we note that the reduced precipitation parameter set may underestimate the probability of high stream flows and therefore underestimate flood hazard.

Gravity anomaly and crustal density structure in Jilantai rift zone and its adjacent region

This paper deals with the interpretation of Bouguer gravity anomalies measured along a 250 km long Suhaitu-Etuokeqi gravity profile located at the transitional zone of the Alxa and Ordos blocks where geophysical characteristics are very complex. The analysis is carried out in terms of the ratio of elevation and Bouguer gravity anomaly, the normalized full gradient of a section of the Bouguer gravity anomaly (G ^h ) and the crustal density structure reveal that (1) the ratio of highs and lows of elevation and Bouguer gravity anomaly is large between Zhengyiguan fault (F4) and Helandonglu fault (F6), which can be explained due to crustal inhomogeneities related to the uplift of the Qinghai-Tibet block in the northeast; (2) the main active faults correspond to the G ^h contour strip or cut the local region, and generally show strong deformation characteristics, for example the Bayanwulashan mountain front fault (F1) or the southeast boundary of Alxa block is in accord with the western change belt of G ^h , a belt about 10 km wide that extends to about 30 km; (3) Yinchuan-Pingluo fault (F8) is the seismogenic structure of the Pingluo M earthquake, and its focal depth is about 15 km; (4) the Moho depth trend and Bouguer gravity anomaly variation indicates that the regional gravity field is strongly correlated with the Moho discontinuity.

基于中国数字地震台网记录的日本本州地区2009年发生的一次震源深度为167.2 km、 震级为mb6.0地震的宽频带波形资料,利用二维射线追踪方法给出P波三重震相的理论时 距曲线,并采用试错法构建出与观测时 距曲线拟合效果最优的低速异常模型,发现在中国东部海域下方410 km间断面上、下均存在局部的P波低速异常:300—410 km深度范围内低速异常为4%—5%,而410—460/470 km深度范围内的低速异常则达到4%—7%．结合前人地震层析成像结果,发现该区域不存在明确外源热流,因而,本文认为该低速异常与俯冲板片脱水引起的部分熔融有关．      

鲁甸6.5级地震地下流体典型异常与前兆机理分析

基于川滇地区前兆台网资料,结合异常现场核实工作结果,对鲁甸6.5级地震前的地下流体异常现象进行了总结。遵循地震分析预报的基本思路,按照长期、中期、短期趋势异常、临震异常和宏观异常阐述了鲁甸6.5级地震前地下流体典型异常现象。结果表明,长期和中期趋势背景异常主要出现在距震中300~500km范围,短期趋势和临震及宏观异常集中于震中区100km范围内。这种流体异常特征反映了在较高密度的观测点区域,可以观测到流体活动加剧的前兆现象,有利于判定地震危险区和短期阶段跟踪分析。区域应力加载作用可能引起的断裂带裂隙的开启与闭合,导致温泉和井水温、深部气体与承压井水位的持续变化;水岩反应加剧和地下水混合作用增强,使地下水离子组分浓度发生变化,甚至导致显著宏观异常。在一定密度的前兆观测地区,能够获取用于判定地震危险性的前兆信息。     

异常、前兆和干扰的新定义及其相关问题的讨论

质疑了"前兆异常"原定义存在的与观测资料和预测实践不符合的缺陷,给出了异常、前兆及干扰的新定义。"异常"与"前兆"是两个完全不同的概念,异常不仅与地震有关,而且与地壳构造变动和相关自然现象也有关;地震前兆则是系由多种内因性和外因性异常构成的预测信息体系;干扰因素仅是偶然的、局部的人为因素。讨论了新老定义之间的差异、新定义的事实依据、地下水等手段今后需解决的关键性任务、现实地震预测能力的有限性等问题;提出了我国地震预报工作的重点应做"战略转移",并且需对我国几十年地震预报探索的科学思路、积累震例、预报实例和研究成果做"再清理"和"再研究"等建议。     

大地震前区域能量场的时间因子异常特征

本文采用自然正交函数展开方法,讨论了我国大陆发生的30次6.0级以上地震前的震中附近地区地震活动能量场的时间因子变化特征.结果表明,在大地震发生前,几个主要特征值所对应的典型场的时间因子均出现了明显的突升或突降变化,显示出与未来强地震有较好的对应关系.时间因子异常一般出现在震前1～3年,多数情况下小于2年,表现出异常的中短期特点;有些地震前异常出现时间小于3个月,显示出异常的短临性质.笔者认为,地震能量场时间因子可能是强地震前的一种有效的异常观测量和中短期异常指标.
