In this paper we study the infiltration of DNAPL in a porous medium containing a single low-permeable lens. Our aim is to
determine whether or not DNAPL infiltrates into the lens. A key role is played by the capillary pressure: DNAPL cannot infiltrate
into the lens unless the capillary pressure exceeds the entry pressure of the lens. In the model this is reflected by an interface
condition, the extended capillary pressure condition. To derive analytical approximations we first consider a steady-state
DNAPL plume in a homogeneous medium. This results in an estimate of the DNAPL plume width as a function of depth, and an asymptotic
solution for small saturations. Assuming that the extent of the lens is much larger than the width of the unperturbed DNAPL
plume in the homogeneous medium, we derive an explicit criterion for DNAPL infiltration into the lens in terms of a critical
inflow rate. A numerical algorithm is presented in which the extended capillary pressure condition is incorporated. The numerical
and analytical results show good qualitative agreement.

We measured the ion conductivity of single-crystal alkali feldspar originating from two different locations in the Eifel/Germany, named Volkesfeld and Rockeskyller sanidine and having potassium site fractions \(C_\mathrm{K}\) of 0.83 and 0.71, respectively. The dc conductivities resulting from electrochemical impedance spectroscopy over the temperature range of 300–900 \(^{\circ }\hbox {C}\) show a weak composition dependence but pronounced differences between the b-direction [\(\perp (010)\)] and \(c^{*}\)-direction [\(\perp (001)\)] of the monoclinic feldspar structure. Conductivity activation energies obtained from the observed linear Arrhenius plots are close to 1.2 eV in all cases, which is closely similar to the activation energies of the \(^{22}\mathrm{Na}\) tracer diffusivity in the same crystals. Taking into account literature data on K tracer diffusion and diffusion correlation effects, the present results point to a predominance of the interstitialcy mechanism over the vacancy mechanism in mass and charge transport on the alkali sublattice in potassium-rich alkali feldspar. 相似文献

The possible influence on diagenesis of oil migration into reservoir sandstones is important for understanding their development. Although many studies have addressed the question of continued growth of diagenetic minerals after oil emplacement, there is little clear evidence of the timing of mineral growth relative to oil emplacement, nor of the possible mechanisms of continued mineral growth. This study presents an example of continued cementation by pore‐lining chlorite during and after the migration of oil into a Palaeocene turbidite sandstone reservoir near the Faroe Islands. Chlorite developed in two different textures. One texture occurs on framework grain surfaces adjacent to open pore space in contact with oil. The other texture occurs close to framework grain contacts where contact with oil appears to have been prevented by residual pore‐water menisci. The meniscus crystals are larger than those from open pore, implying that diagenetic clay mineral growth has continued after oil emplacement. 相似文献

Urban development commonly disturbs the meta-stable conditions in the dolomite environment which can lead to sinkhole formation.
650 sinkholes, which manifested from 1984 to 2004 in an approximately 3,700 ha urbanized environment, located on dolomite
land south of Pretoria in South Africa, was analyzed in the absence of risk mitigation measures. A 4 year period post the
implementation of a comprehensive risk management system was also analyzed. This research permitted a timely review of the
Buttrick et al. (J South African Inst Civil Eng 43(2):27–36, 2001) methodology for dolomite land hazard identification which is commonly used in stability analysis and the development of
risk mitigation strategies in Southern Africa. The research confirmed this methodology and demonstrated that the approach
to the mitigation of hazards through risk management can improve the hazard rating of dolomite land. The research provided
much needed data and insights to refine and expand upon the current South African methodology to cover the full spectrum of
developments in a manner which is capable of being included in legislative frameworks governing the development of dolomite
land, both locally and internationally. 相似文献

This paper focuses on the methods and process of spatial aggregation based on semantic and geometric characteristics of spatial objects and relations among the objects with the help of spatial data structure (Formal Data Structure), the Local Constrained Delaunay Triangulations and semantic hierarchy. The adjacent relation among connected objects and unconnected objects has been studied through constrained triangle as elementary processing unit in aggregation operation. The hierarchical semantic analytical matrix is given for analyzing the similarity between objects types and between objects. Several different cases of aggregation have been presented in this paper. 相似文献

Wetlands on the Vecht river plain in the Netherlands are threatened by pollution of ground water on the adjacent ridge ‘Het Gooi’. To assess the impact of this pollution, information is needed on the present groundwater flow pattern and hydrochemical processes occurring during flow. In the determination of hydrochemical processes past changes in flow patterns must be taken into consideration.
Over the past 600 years impoldering and groundwater extraction have induced important hydrological changes in the study area. Exercises with a two-dimensional finite difference groundwater model were used to study the effects of these changes on regional groundwater flow patterns. Steady-state simulations along a vertical section were carried out for four different points in time, namely, the 14th century, 1885, 1941 and 1985. Changes in flow patterns are inferred from a comparison of the steady-state simulations. The results indicate that groundwater flow changed from a simple pattern under natural conditions to a complex flow pattern dominated by artificially man-controlled hydraulic heads at present.
The computer simulations are used to estimate the effect of changes in flow patterns on regional groundwater composition. Data on the distribution of chloride and oxygen-18 in ground water provide a verification of the estimated effects and information on the present position of the fresh-brackish groundwater interface in the study area. Isochrones calculated by the model are used to estimate the position of this front where data on water composition are absent. The future displacement of the fresh-brackish groundwater front is inferred from the position of successive isochrones, assuming that the present flow pattern will remain in steady state.
The computer simulations provide a general framework for the determination of hydrochemical processes in future studies addressing the impact of groundwater pollution on wetlands in the river plain. 相似文献

Abstract. An investigation was conducted on transplantation in the Mediterranean seagrass, Posidonia oceanica. The effects of rhizome length and season of transplantation were investigated over the first year of growth in relation to survival and development in orthotropic shoots. Twelve batches, each composed of 36 transplants bearing one leaf bundle, were detached and planted at the same site and depth. They were fixed horizontally to mesh supports. These twelve batches, comprising three classes of rhizome length (10, 15, and 20 cm), were transplanted at four times of year. Mortality was highest for transplants made in early summer, when temperatures exceeded 20°C, and lowest for those made in autumn. Although initial rhizome length had no discernible effect on subsequent mortality, it was positively related to the length of the necrosed portion one year later. The most successful transplants, made in autumn with 10 to 15 cm long rhizomes, gave survival rates of 92 to 97%. These results should help to develop transplantation techniques for restoring damaged sites. 相似文献

Stream ecosystems can be dramatically altered by dam-building activities of North American beaver (Castor canadensis). The extent to which beavers’ ecosystem engineering alters riverscapes is driven by the density, longevity, and size (i.e. height and length) of the dams constructed. In comparison to the relative ubiquity of beaver dams on the landscape, there is a scarcity of data describing dam heights. We collected data describing dam height and dam condition (i.e. damaged or intact) of 500 beaver dams via rapid field survey, differentiating between primary and secondary dams and associating each dam with a beaver dam complex. With these data, we examined the influence of beaver dam type (primary/secondary), drainage area, streamflow, stream power, valley bottom width, and HUC12 watershed on beaver dam height with linear regression and the probability that a beaver dam was damaged with logistic regression. On average, primary dams were 0.46 m taller than secondary dams; 15% of observed dams were primary and 85% secondary. Dam type accounted for 21% of dam height variation (p <0.0001). Slope (p = 0.0107), discharge (p = 0.0029), and drainage area (p = 0.0399) also affected dam height, but each accounted for less than 3% of dam height variation. The average number of dams in a dam complex was 6.1 (SD ± 4.5) and ranged from 1 to 21. The watershed a beaver dam was located in accounted for the most variability (17.8%) in the probability that a beaver dam was damaged, which was greater than the variability explained by any multiple logistic regression model. These results indicate that temporally dynamic variables are important influencers of dam longevity and that beaver dam ecology is a primary factor influencing beaver dam height. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献

Evaluation is a key step to examine the quality of generalized maps with respect to map requirements. Map generalization facilitates the recognition of pattern generating processes by preserving and highlighting the patterns at smaller scales. This article focuses specifically on the evaluation of building patterns in topographic maps that are generalized from large to mid scales. Currently, there is a lack of knowledge and functionality on automatically evaluating how these patterns are generalized. The issues of the evaluation range from missing formal map requirements on building alignments to missing automated evaluation techniques. This article firstly analyses the requirements (constraints) related to the generalization of building alignments. Then, it focuses on three more specific constraints, i.e. on existence, orientation of alignments and spatial distribution of composing buildings. Later, a three-step approach is proposed to (1) recognize and (2) match alignments from source and generalized datasets and (3) evaluate building alignments in generalized datasets. Besides, many-to-many and partial matching between initial and target alignments is a side effect of generalization, which reduces the reliability of the evaluation results. This article introduces a confidence indicator to document the reliability and to inform intended users (e.g. cartographers) and/or systems about the reliability of evaluation decisions. The effectiveness of our approach is demonstrated by evaluating the alignments in both interactively (manually) generalized maps and automated generalized maps. Finally, we discuss how our approach can be used to control automated generalization and identify further improvements. 相似文献
