Some general results for normal mode instability on a sphere     

Richard Grotjahn 《地球物理与天体物理流体动力学》2013,107(1-4):113-121

Abstract

The stability properties are described for two general types of zonal mean flows: solid body rotation and a mid-latitude jet. Growth rates are plotted versus zonal wavenumber and mean flow vertical shear in both cases. The structure of the most unstable modes is described and some physical interpretation given.  相似文献   

Decentralising Zimbabwe’s water management: The case of Guyu-Chelesa irrigation scheme     

《Physics and Chemistry of the Earth》2013

Smallholder irrigation schemes are largely supply driven such that they exclude the beneficiaries on the management decisions and the choice of the irrigation schemes that would best suit their local needs. It is against this background that the decentralisation framework and the Dublin Principles on Integrated Water Resource Management (IWRM) emphasise the need for a participatory approach to water management. The Zimbabwean government has gone a step further in decentralising the management of irrigation schemes, that is promoting farmer managed irrigation schemes so as to ensure effective management of scarce community based land and water resources. The study set to investigate the way in which the Guyu-Chelesa irrigation scheme is managed with specific emphasis on the role of the Irrigation Management Committee (IMC), the level of accountability and the powers devolved to the IMC. Merrey’s 2008 critique of IWRM also informs this study which views irrigation as going beyond infrastructure by looking at how institutions and decision making processes play out at various levels including at the irrigation scheme level. The study was positioned on the hypothesis that ‘decentralised or autonomous irrigation management enhances the sustainability and effectiveness of irrigation schemes’. To validate or falsify the stated hypothesis, data was gathered using desk research in the form of reviewing articles, documents from within the scheme and field research in the form of questionnaire surveys, key informant interviews and field observation. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences was used to analyse data quantitatively, whilst content analysis was utilised to analyse qualitative data whereby data was analysed thematically. Comparative analysis was carried out as Guyu-Chelesa irrigation scheme was compared with other smallholder irrigation scheme’s experiences within Zimbabwe and the Sub Saharan African region at large. The findings were that whilst the scheme is a model of a decentralised entity whose importance lies at improving food security and employment creation within the community, it falls short in representing a downwardly accountable decentralised irrigation scheme. The scheme is faced with various challenges which include its operation which is below capacity utilisation, absence of specialised technical human personnel to address infrastructural breakdowns, uneven distribution of water pressure, incapacitated Irrigation Management Committee (IMC), absence of a locally legitimate constitution, compromised beneficiary participation and unclear lines of communication between various institutions involved in water management. Understanding decentralization is important since one of the key tenets of IWRM is stakeholder participation which the decentralization framework interrogates.  相似文献

薛德强  徐建军 《海洋气象学报》2021,41(1):82-91

分析了1979—2018年两类厄尔尼诺事件期间月平均热带太平洋海面温度(sea surface temperature,SST)异常、对流降水异常、大气环流异常等特征,发现东部型、中部型厄尔尼诺期间海洋及大气加热场并不是赤道对称,赤道以南热源强度大于赤道以北。大气对热源的响应表现在:1)低层在大气热源西侧出现南、北半球热带相对应的气旋环流异常,但是赤道以南气旋的涡度大于赤道以北,且两类厄尔尼诺事件期间涡度中心的位置不同;到高层赤道中东太平洋呈现赤道对称的反气旋环流控制。2)低层热源的西侧出现西风异常,东侧为东风异常,西风异常的强度与范围明显大于东风异常,且东部型西风异常的强度大于中部型;而到高层,纬向风的风向和低层正好相反。3)低层东部型、中部型厄尔尼诺上升运动异常分别位于赤道中东太平洋和赤道中太平洋,下沉运动出现在热源东西两侧及赤道两侧5°N以北、5°S以南的热带地区;东部型到中层上升运动异常强度达到最大,而中部型到高层上升运动异常强度达到最大。4)低层东部型、中部型厄尔尼诺期间位势高度在中东太平洋为负异常,西太平洋为正异常;到高层,整个赤道中东太平洋地区均为位势高度正异常,并且在赤道两侧分别出现位势高度正异常中心,与反气旋环流涡度中心及下沉运动异常中心相对应。5)除西风异常范围大于东风异常,其他特征与赤道非对称热源GILL响应的理论计算模态基本一致。  相似文献

Triassic palaeosols in the upper Narrabeen group of new South Wales. part I: Features of the palaeosols     

G. J. Retallack 《Australian Journal of Earth Sciences》2013,60(4):383-399

The sea‐cliffs north of Sydney expose a complex of Triassic palaeosols, pedoliths, and sedimentary rocks.

The most obvious and diagnostic features of the palaeosols are fossil roots in place and markedly leached or reddened, relatively massive, clay‐rich strata. Associated coaly layers and fossil plant remains in adjacent sediments show varying degrees of decomposition. The A horizons of some of these palaeosols have been silicified by plant opal and contain abundant insect, earthworm, and larger animal burrows, cradle knolls, and basket podzols. Many of the palaeosols have well‐preserved peds and their upper horizons slake more readily in water than their lower horizons. Their B horizons may consist of extensive layers of siderite nodules or red claystone with tubular grey mottles around old root channels.

Less mature palaeosols show some relict sedimentary bedding and ripple marks within their profiles. More mature palaeosols, which appear massive in the field, may show anomalous grainsize variation in thin section, remaining from sedimentary bedding.

Soils can be eroded and deposited as pedoliths. Conglomerates of palaeosol clay pebbles and siderite nodules are easy to recognize as pedoliths. Finer‐grained pedoliths have the distinctive mineralogy and some of the small structures, but not the larger structures and field relations, of palaeosols.

Siderite crystals and nodules developed in the gleyed organic and A horizons of some of the clayey palaeosols shortly after they were covered by sediment and subsided below base level. With further compaction and dewatering, the ferric‐oxide minerals became redder by inverting to hematite, mineralized joints developed in some massive B horizons, some peds were accentuated by slickensides, and some root channels and coal cleat were filled with copper minerals.  相似文献

计算域内地形的概化精度对模拟结果有较大影响,针对实际地形中同时存在狭长河谷与广阔泛洪区的问题,在层次自适应网格模型的基础上,研究了网格快速加密与合并的步骤,并以水位梯度与局部弗劳德数为基础设计了网格自适应准则,当水流运动情势变化时网格密度自动调整,实现计算精度与效率的平衡。在此网格模型基础上,采用有限体积法求解二维浅水方程,利用梯度限制器技术及龙格-库塔法提高模型的空间、时间计算精度。算例表明,层次自适应网格模型既能实现随水流运动动态变化并捕获水位计算敏感区,也能对局部区域进行静态固定加密,自适应性良好,具有较好的推广应用价值。  相似文献

不同边界层和陆面过程参数化方案对比分析     

屠妮妮  何光碧  张利红 《高原山地气象研究》2012,32(3):1-8

利用WRF模式选用不同的边界层参数化方案 (YSU、MRF) 结合三种陆面过程方案 (RUC、SLAB、Noah) , 模拟了2011年5月1~3日的四川东部暴雨过程, 对不同参数化方案结合不同陆面过程结果进行对比试验基础上发现, 模式对24h降水落区及强度有较强预报能力, 但对单站小时降水分布的预报能力还需改进;不同边界层方案与陆面过程的对比试验说明降水对于边界层物理过程有一定敏感性, 各试验的差异主要体现在对暴雨中心雨强以及降水峰值强度和峰值出现时段的预报上;WRF模式基本上能够模拟出边界层要素日变化特征。   相似文献
