An M_w 5.9 earthquake occurred in the Lake Rukwa rift, Tanzania, on 1994 August 18, and was well recorded by 20 broad-band seismic stations at distances of 160 to 800 km and 21 broad-band stations at teleseismic distances. The regional and teleseismic waveforms have been used to investigate the source characteristics of the main shock, and also to locate aftershocks that occurred within three weeks of the main shock. Teleseismic body-wave modelling yields the following source parameters for the main shock: source depth of 25 ± 2 km, a normal fault orientation, with a horizontal tension axis striking NE-SW and an almost vertical pressure axis (Nodal Plane I: strike 126°–142°, dip 63°–66°, and rake 280°–290°; Nodal Plane II: strike 273°–289°, dip 28°–31°, and rake 235°–245°), a scalar moment of 4.1 times 10¹⁷ N m, and a 2 s impulsive source time function. Four of the largest aftershocks also nucleated at depths of 25 km, as deduced from regional sPmp–Pmp times. The nodal planes are broadly consistent with the orientation of both the Lupa and Ufipa faults, which bound the Rukwa rift to the northeast and southwest, respectively. The rupture radius of the main shock, assuming a circular fault, is estimated to be 4 km with a corresponding stress drop of 6.5 MPa. Published estimates of crustal thickness beneath the Rukwa rift indicate that the foci of the main shock and aftershocks lie at least 10 km above the Moho. The presence of lower-crustal seismicity beneath the Rukwa rift suggests that the pre-rift thermal structure of the rifted crust has not been strongly modified by the rifting, at least to depths of 25 km.  相似文献

New analytical and numerical approaches for geopotential modeling     

M. S. Petrovskaya  A. N. Vershkov  N. K. Pavlis 《Journal of Geodesy》2001,75(12):661-672

 The standard analytical approach which is applied for constructing geopotential models OSU86 and earlier ones, is based on reducing the boundary value equation to a sphere enveloping the Earth and then solving it directly with respect to the potential coefficients _n,m . In an alternative procedure, developed by Jekeli and used for constructing the models OSU91 and EGM96, at first an ellipsoidal harmonic series is developed for the geopotential and then its coefficients _n,m ^e are transformed to the unknown _n,m . The second solution is more exact, but much more complicated. The standard procedure is modified and a new simple integral formula is derived for evaluating the potential coefficients. The efficiency of the standard and new procedures is studied numerically. In these solutions the same input data are used as for constructing high-degree parts of the EGM96 models. From two sets of _n,m (n≤360,|m|≤n), derived by the standard and new approaches, different spectral characteristics of the gravity anomaly and the geoid undulation are estimated and then compared with similar characteristics evaluated by Jekeli's approach (`etalon' solution). The new solution appears to be very close to Jekeli's, as opposed to the standard solution. The discrepancies between all the characteristics of the new and `etalon' solutions are smaller than the corresponding discrepancies between two versions of the final geopotential model EGM96, one of them (HDM190) constructed by the block-diagonal least squares (LS) adjustment and the other one (V068) by using Jekeli's approach. On the basis of the derived analytical solution a new simple mathematical model is developed to apply the LS technique for evaluating geopotential coefficients.

可变电荷土壤和恒电荷土壤与氢离子相互作用机理   总被引：2，自引：4，他引：2

研究了可变电荷土壤和恒电荷土壤与H相互作用的机理，并比较了它们之间的差别，研究结果表明，氢离子输入土壤后可以转化为表面正电荷，可溶性铝和可交换性酸，但是由于土壤的组成和性质不同，不同土壤中H＋三种去向的贡献不同。H＋转化为表面正电荷是由于土壤表面Fe-OH,Al-OH的质子化造成的，因此H＋转化为表面正电荷的能力与土壤中氧化铁的含量密切相关，从而可变电荷土壤中H＋转化为表面正电荷的贡献比恒电荷土壤中的大。H＋转化为可溶性铝的能力与土教育部 的矿物组成密切相关，随着H＋输入量的增加，土壤中可溶性铝的含量也增加。可变电荷土壤中可溶性铝增加的顺序为红壤＞赤红壤＞铁质砖红壤，在H＋的加入量小于15mmol/kg时，黄棕壤的可溶性铝介于红壤和赤红壤之间，当H＋的加入量大于约15mmol/kg时，黄棕壤的可溶性铝略小于赤红壤，棕壤的可溶性铝明显小于红壤和赤红壤，但比铁质砖红壤高，恒电荷土壤的可变性酸量明显大于可变电荷土壤，但从总的看来，H＋加入量的变化对可交换性酸量的影响不大。  相似文献   

An integrable case of a rotational motion analogous to that of Lagrange and Poisson for a gyrostat in a Newtonian force field     

J. A. Cavas  A. Vigueras 《Celestial Mechanics and Dynamical Astronomy》1994,60(3):317-330

The scope of the present paper is to provide analytic solutions to the problem of the attitude evolution of a symmetric gyrostat about a fixed point in a central Newtonian force field when the potential function isV ⁽²⁾.We assume that the center of mass and the gyrostatic moment are on the axis of symmetry and that the initial conditions are the following: (t ₀)=₀, (t ₀)=₀, (t ₀)=(t ₀)=₀, ₁(t ₀)=0, ₂(t ₀)=0 and ₃(t ₀)= ₃ ⁰ .The problem is integrated when the third component of the total angular momentum is different from zero (B ₁ 0). There now appear equilibrium solutions that did not exist in the caseB ₁=0, which can be determined in function of the value ofl ₃ ^r (the third component of the gyrostatic momentum).The possible types of solutions (elliptic, trigonometric, stationary) depend upon the nature of the roots of the functiong(u). The solutions for Euler angles are given in terms of functions of the timet. If we cancel the third component of the gyrostatic momentum (l ₃ ^r =0), the obtained solutions are valid for rigid bodies.  相似文献
