Since microphysics cannot say definitively whether the rheology of the mantle is linear or non-linear, the aim of this paper is to constrain mantle rheology from observations related to the glacial isostatic adjustment (GIA) process—namely relative sea-levels (RSLs), land uplift rate from GPS and gravity-rate-of-change from GRACE. We consider three earth model types that can have power-law rheology (n = 3 or 4) in the upper mantle, the lower mantle or throughout the mantle. For each model type, a range of A parameter in the creep law will be explored and the predicted GIA responses will be compared to the observations to see which value of A has the potential to explain all the data simultaneously. The coupled Laplace finite-element (CLFE) method is used to calculate the response of a 3D spherical self-gravitating viscoelastic Earth to forcing by the ICE-4G ice history model with ocean loads in self-gravitating oceans. Results show that ice thickness in Laurentide needs to increase significantly or delayed by 2 ka, otherwise the predicted uplift rate, gravity rate-of-change and the amplitude of the RSL for sites inside the ice margin of Laurentide are too low to be able to explain the observations. However, the ice thickness elsewhere outside Laurentide needs to be slightly modified in order to explain the global RSL data outside Laurentide. If the ice model is modified in this way, then the results of this paper indicate that models with power-law rheology in the lower mantle (with A  10⁻³⁵ Pa⁻³ s⁻¹ for n = 3) have the highest potential to simultaneously explain all the observed RSL, uplift rate and gravity rate-of-change data than the other model types.  相似文献

Underutilized plant species in Far West Nepal

Underutilized plant species help to alleviate common food insufficiencies by providing alternative food supply. They also complement primary health care, furnishing raw materials where the cultivation of staple cereal crops is least feasible and health care is pursued indigenously. Research and promotion of extraction, utilization, and conservation of underutilized species lead to exploration of new staple crops and motivate people to consume in a sustainable manner. The present study describes the current status, uses, and management of underutilized plant species in Far West Nepal. The relative importance of 49 underutilized plant species was computed employing a Relative Importance (RI) technique. The use-values assigned to the species fall into six use-categories: beverage, fodder, food & edible, medicinal, vegetable and veterinary. A total of 22 species appeared in multiple use-categories, while the rest were characterized by a single use-category. Based on relative importance and frequency, Ficus semicordata, Debregesia longifolia, Girardinea diversifolia, Hydrocotyle nepalensis, Garuga pinnata, Aloe vera and Pyrus pashia offer the most potential for future. Underutilized plants proved important to folk medicine and food. These species persist because they remain useful to local people as means of subsistence, production, and primary health care. The findings are important so far as they point up the role of underutilized plants in national food security policy and health care, spelling out their potentialities and cross cutting relationships.  相似文献

A geochemical perspective on Parisian urban history based on U–Th dating,laminae counting and yttrium and REE concentrations of recent carbonates in underground aqueducts     

《Quaternary Geochronology》2014

Two laminated carbonate deposits from the wall of an underground aqueduct, built between the 13th and 15th century, in Paris, France, were studied to provide historical information about nearby human occupation and urban development. To obtain a robust chronology for these small (29 and 45 mm thick) and very young deposits (< 800 a based on the probable date of aqueduct construction), we adopted two methods: laminae counting and U–Th analysis. For laminae, we tested the hypothesis that their deposition is bi-annual. Concerning U–Th dating, the influence of inherited ²³⁰Th on calculated ages is discussed and detrital ²³⁰Th/²³²Th values for each speleothem was determined using stratigraphic constraints and found to be significantly different despite their close proximity. In these speleothems, that precipitated over approximately 300 a according to U–Th dating, the number of laminae is similar, and two laminae were deposited each year. The lamina-counting chronology was used to interpret the rare earth elements and yttrium content (REE + Y) variations measured by ICP-QMS as historical variations in water quality in relation with the anthropogenic use of these elements. There is a marked increase of the REE + Y concentrations since the second half of the twentieth century. A marked negative Ce anomaly in the NASC-normalized REE trend is evidenced, and is more pronounced for post 1850s. This anomaly could be due to prior precipitation of Ce⁴⁺ before the water reached the aqueduct, related to a high organic matter content of the water in oxidizing conditions. The increase in the Ce anomaly could indicate a second source of water, from a wastewater collection system or a modern water conveyance system. We thus demonstrate the interest of using these annual carbonate deposits in urban areas as a proxy for the history of urbanization or human activities.  相似文献   

Flow resistance of gravel bed channels     

Wen C. WANG  David R. DAWDY 《国际泥沙研究》2014,29(1):126-132

Existing resistance formulas produce a wide range of friction-factor estimates for gravel bed streams. The purpose of this paper is to develop a reliable resistance formula in terms of the Darcy-Weisbach friction factor f Published data were screened and used to establish the formula. The existing formulas have considered thatfis a function of relative roughness D84/R only, where R is the hydraulic radius and 1984 is the particle size referred to the intermediate diameter that equals or exceeds that of 84 percent of bed sediments. In this paper, f is considered as a ftmction of Froude number in addition to the relative roughness, ffor D84/R〉l displays a different trend than that for Dsn/R〈l perhaps due to the invalid assumption of a logarithmic velocity distribution for D84/R〉l. Anfformula for Dsa/R〈l has been established.  相似文献

现代卫星跟踪卫星重力测量技术显著改善了地球重力场模型的中长波段信号,并拓展了重力场模型在相关科学研究中的应用.同解法作为卫星重力观测数据的主要处理手段之一,国内一直没有实质突破.本文从基本模型和关键技术的分析出发,剖析了同解法的特点,特别是在建立同解法与几何法(运动学)定轨、一般动力学方法关系的基础上,给出了一种同解法的实现路线.在已有的精细数据预处理和并行计算研究基础上,结合GRACE卫星的实测飞行数据,在国内首次获得了真实卫星任务数据条件下的同解法结果,并进行了动力法轨道的外部质量检核、卫星非保守力分析、重力场模型的GPS水准检验等.利用卫星激光测距数据检验,卫星精密轨道的径向精度优于2cm,同时建立了质量可靠的卫星重力场模型,充分展示了同解法的优点.数值结果及其分析表明,本文所提的同解法实施方案合理可行,已经掌握了实现同解法的关键技术,获得了从仿真研究到实际飞行数据处理的新进展.最后,本文对同解法今后的发展思路,以及如何进一步挖掘同解法的潜力,提出了见解和今后的工作方向.  相似文献   

特定震源台站校正定位方法及在安徽霍山地区的应用          下载免费PDF全文

邵磊  王健  林国庆 《地球物理学报》2010,53(6):1440-1450

本文详细介绍一种地震定位方法--特定震源台站校正定位法(Source-Specific Station Term, SSST),并应用该方法对安徽大别山的霍山地区1976~2008年发生的地震进行重新定位研究.重新定位后,原震源位置的精度得以大大提高、空间上分布也更加紧凑.使用bootstrap法对定位偏差进行估计,得到E-W、N-S、U-D三个方向的定位误差分别为0.4 km、0.6 km、0.9 km;定位均方根残差得以很大程度上减小,其均值由定位前的1.34 s下降到定位后的0.11 s.文中比较了特定震源台站校正方法与双差方法,结果表明,相对于双差方法,特定震源台站校正法定位条件容易满足,定位后缺失地震较少且还具有一定的绝对定位作用.应用特定震源台站校正方法的结果对霍山区域的地震活动性进行分析,发现重定位后显示出3条明显的密集条带,由此划分出3个密集区并分析其时空分布特征,结果显示这3个密集区在深度上分布都具有较浅的特征,但随时间分布却有所差异.条件允许时,将来可以结合波形互相关技术进一步提高定位精度.  相似文献
