The investment climate for climate investment: Joint Implementation in transition countries     

Samuel Fankhauser  Lucia Lavric 《Climate Policy》2013,13(4):417-434

Transition countries are expected to become important players in the emerging market for greenhouse gas emission reductions, as they can cut emissions at a relatively low cost. However, the attractiveness of the region as a supplier of emission reductions will not only depend on its cost advantage. It will also depend on the business climate offered to carbon investors—factors like a well-functioning legal and regulatory system, economic and political stability and the capacity to process emission reduction projects efficiently. This paper looks at the carbon investment climate in the transition countries eligible for Joint Implementation (JI)—Russia, Ukraine, Croatia and the EU accession countries. It concludes that JI investors will face a clear trade-off between the scope for cheap JI on the one hand, and the quality of the business environment and JI institutions on the other. The countries with the highest potential for cheap emission reductions also tend to be the countries with the most difficult business climate and the least institutional capacity for JI. The most attractive JI locations may be median countries with a reasonable JI potential and an acceptable business climate, such as Bulgaria, Romania and the Slovak Republic.  相似文献

Regional Stress Fields under Tibet from 3D Global Flow Simulation     

张斯奇  David A Yuen  张怀  石耀霖 《中国地质大学学报(英文版)》2011,(2)

Tibetan area is the most active continental collision zone on earth.Several major earth-quakes occurred around the boundaries of Tibetan plateau and caused massive damages and casualties.The dynamics of this area is not well understood due to the complex structure of Tibet and its sur-rounding area.In this study,a 3D global flow simulation with only viscous rheology is applied to studying the stress distribution in this area,and the interaction between Tibet and its surrounding areas is investigated.Finally...  相似文献   

Active normal faulting along the Mt. Morrone south-western slopes (central Apennines,Italy)     

Stefano Gori  Biagio Giaccio  Fabrizio Galadini  Emanuela Falcucci  Paolo Messina  Andrea Sposato  Francesco Dramis 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》2011,100(1):157-171

In the present work we analyse one of the active normal faults affecting the central Apennines, i.e. the Mt. Morrone normal fault system. This tectonic structure, which comprises two parallel, NW-SE trending fault segments, is considered as potentially responsible for earthquakes of magnitude ≥ 6.5 and its last activation probably occurred during the second century AD. Structural observations performed along the fault planes have allowed to define the mainly normal kinematics of the tectonic structure, fitting an approximately N 20° trending extensional deformation. Geological and geomorphological investigations performed along the whole Mt. Morrone south-western slopes permitted us to identify the displacement of alluvial fans, attributed to Middle and Late Pleistocene by means of tephro-stratigraphic analyses and geomorphological correlations with dated lacustrine sequences, along the western fault branch. This allowed to evaluate in 0.4 ± 0.07 mm/year the slip rate of this segment. On the other hand, the lack of synchronous landforms and/or deposits that can be correlated across the eastern fault segment prevented the definition of the slip rate related to this fault branch. Nevertheless, basing on a critical review of the available literature dealing with normal fault systems evolution, we hypothesised a total slip rate of the fault system in the range of 0.4 ± 0.07 to 0.8 ± 0.09 mm/year. Moreover, basing on the length at surface of the Mt. Morrone fault system (i.e. 22–23 km) we estimated the maximum expected magnitude of an earthquake that might originate along this tectonic structure in the order of 6.6–6.7.  相似文献

A cloud mask methodology for high resolution remote sensing data combining information from high and medium resolution optical sensors   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Fernando Sedano  Pieter KempeneersPeter Strobl  Jan KuceraPeter Vogt  Lucia SeebachJesús San-Miguel-Ayanz 《ISPRS Journal of Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing》2011,66(5):588-596

This study presents a novel cloud masking approach for high resolution remote sensing images in the context of land cover mapping. As an advantage to traditional methods, the approach does not rely on thermal bands and it is applicable to images from most high resolution earth observation remote sensing sensors. The methodology couples pixel-based seed identification and object-based region growing. The seed identification stage relies on pixel value comparison between high resolution images and cloud free composites at lower spatial resolution from almost simultaneously acquired dates. The methodology was tested taking SPOT4-HRVIR, SPOT5-HRG and IRS-LISS III as high resolution images and cloud free MODIS composites as reference images. The selected scenes included a wide range of cloud types and surface features. The resulting cloud masks were evaluated through visual comparison. They were also compared with ad-hoc independently generated cloud masks and with the automatic cloud cover assessment algorithm (ACCA). In general the results showed an agreement in detected clouds higher than 95% for clouds larger than 50 ha. The approach produced consistent results identifying and mapping clouds of different type and size over various land surfaces including natural vegetation, agriculture land, built-up areas, water bodies and snow.  相似文献   

Explicit finite‐element analysis for the in‐plane cyclic behavior of unreinforced masonry structures     

Lucia Karapitta  Harris Mouzakis  Panayotis Carydis 《地震工程与结构动力学》2011,40(2):175-193

A simple constitutive model is proposed for an in‐plane numerical analysis of unreinforced masonry structures, which are subject to cyclic loading, by using explicit dynamic procedures. The proposed model is implemented by using two‐dimensional plane‐stress finite elements. Three different constitutive relations that are based on the total strain in the global material system are used. Cracking and crushing are controlled through normal strains, whereas shear is controlled through shear strain. Separate hysteretic rules are adopted for each mode of damage. A numerical analysis of masonry walls that are subject to cyclic loading has demonstrated that the use of explicit procedures in conjunction with the proposed model results in an acceptable accuracy when compared with the experimental results.
