Mt. Qomolangma lies in the collision zone between the fringe of Eurasia plate and Indian plate. The crustal movement there
is still very active so far. In the past three decades China carried out five geodetic campaigns in Mt. Qomolangma and its
north vicinal area, independently or cooperatively with other countries, including triangulation, leveling, GPS positioning,
atmospheric, astronomical and gravity measurements. On the basis of the observation results achieved in the campaigns the
crustal movements in the area were studied and explored. A non-stationary phenomenon both in time and space of the crustal
vertical movement in the area is found. There seems to be some relevance between the phenomenon of non-stationary in time
and seismic episode in China. The phenomenon of non-stationary in space is possibly relevant to the no-homo- geneity of crustal
medium and non-uniform absorption of terrestrial stress. The horizontal crustal movement in the area is in the direction of
NEE at a speed of 6–7 cm per year, and the trend of strike slip movement is manifested evidently in the collision fringe of
Indian plate and Qinghai-Xizang block. 相似文献

In China, carbon capture and storage (CCS) is recognized as one of the most promising technologies through which to achieve a large reduction in CO2 emissions in future. The choice among different CCS technologies is critical for large-scale applications. With the aim of developing instructive policy suggestions for CCS development, this study proposed an interval programming model to select the optimal CCS technology among the different CCS technologies available in China. The analysis results indicate that the selection of CO2 capture technologies should be based on the actual situation of the project and industry being targeted. If the government implements mandatory CO2 emission reductions, storage in deep saline aquifers is the optimal choice for CO2 sequestration when oil prices are low and the number of available CO2 emission permits is large. In contrast, enhanced oil recovery is the optimal choice when oil prices increase and the availability of CO2 emission permits decreases. It is critical that the government reduce the operating cost and the cost of CO2 capture in particular.
