林县小震活动特征及与邢台地震活动的关系

林县小震活动具有频度高,起伏大,韵律性强,震级小,震源浅,烈度高,活动范围小,b值高,子序列衰减快,全过程持续时间长;Q值偏低,类型多样等特点。其频度变化与邢台强震区地震活动的频度变化十分吻合,且滞后5-20个月,证明了林县小震活动是受邢台强震区地震活动的诱发而形成。因其活动总滞后于区域地震活动,所以不宜作为监视地震的“震情窗口”。最后,概要地论述了林县小震区的地体环境,认为林县盆地是一个以任村-桃园断裂为主控断裂的、向东伸展的破碎滑脱体。并从构造、岩石组成及深层承压水活动等方面对诱发条件进行了讨论。     

Changes in the marine pollution management system in response to the Amorgos oil spill in Taiwan

The Marine Pollution Control Act (MPCA) of Taiwan was promulgated on November 1, 2000, with the specific aim of controlling marine pollution, safeguarding public health, and promoting the sustainable use of marine resources. In addition to land-based pollution, oil spills are one of the most significant threats to the local marine environment largely on account of the some 30,000 tankers which pass through Taiwan’s coastal waters each year. In January 2001, two months after the enactment of this newly-introduced law, a Greek merchant vessel, the Amorgos ran aground in the vicinity of a national park on the southern tip of Taiwan, causing a serious oil spill and leading to considerable changes with regard to the marine pollution management system. The incident brought to the forefront many serious problems, such as a lack of experience, expertise as well as equipment required to respond to such disasters, as well as the ambiguous, unclear jurisdiction among related agencies. Thus, this paper reviews the incident of the Amorgos spill, identifies the major issues and lessons learned, and proposes several recommendations in an effort for Taiwan to further improve its marine pollution management system.     

由区域震及远震波形得到中国溧阳1974和1979年地震的断裂机制：在以…

中国东部１９７４年和１９７９年溧阳地震是两次中强地震，但属破坏性地震。第一次地震于１９７４年４月２２日发生在人口密集的地区，第二次地震于１９７９年７月９日几乎在同一地区发生。两地震震中位于两断层的交汇附近，在晚中生代到晚三纪的沉积拉张盆地内。本文利用２°和９０°之间的长周期Ｐ波、ＳＨ波及短周期远震ＰＤ波波形，确定两次地震具有逆冲分量的走滑震源机制。这一机制与较早用Ｐ波初动解得到的结果有明显不同。后     

唐山地震前一次中短期预报的追忆

１９７６年，作者及同事根据地震节线法画出了５个地震危险区，其中Ⅱ区１９７６年４月发生了林格尔６．３级地震。又结合地应力和地磁资料，预测了７－８月份华北北部可能有效较大地震。此文目的是纪念唐山地震２０周年。     

Preliminary study on biodegradation of phenanthrene by bacteria isolated from mangrove sediments in Hong Kong

Elevated concentrations of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been found in mangrove sediments due to anthropogenic pollution, and microbial degradation has been suggested as the best way to remove PAHs from contaminated sediments. The degradation of phenanthrene, a model PAH compound by bacteria, either the enriched mixed culture or individual isolate isolated from surface mangrove sediments was examined. The effects of salinity, initial phenanthrene concentrations and the addition of glucose on biodegradation potential were also investigated. Results show that surface sediments collected from four mangrove swamps in Hong Kong had different degree of PAH contamination and had different indigenous phenanthrene-degrading bacterial consortia. The enriched bacteria could use phenanthrene as the sole carbon source for growth and degrade this PAH compound accordingly. A significant positive relationship was found between bacterial growth and percentages of phenanthrene degradation. The phenanthrene biodegradation ability of the enriched mixed bacterial culture was not related to the degree of PAH contamination in surface sediments. The growth and biodegradation percentages of the enriched mixed culture were not higher than that of the individual isolate especially at low salinity (0 and 10 ppt). High salinity (35 ppt) inhibited growth and biodegradation of phenanthrene of a bacterial isolate but less inhibitory effect was found on the mixed culture. The inhibitory effects of salinity could be reduced with the addition of glucose.
