Three High Frequency (HF) ocean radar stations were installed around the Soya/La Perouse Strait in the Sea of Okhotsk in order
to monitor the Soya Warm Current (SWC). The frequency of the HF radar is 13.9 MHz, and the range and azimuth resolutions are
3 km and 5 deg., respectively. The radar covers a range of approximately 70 km from the coast. The surface current velocity
observed by the HF radars was compared with data from drifting buoys and shipboard Acoustic Doppler Current Profilers (ADCPs).
The current velocity derived from the HF radars shows good agreement with that observed using the drifting buoys. The root-mean-square
(rms) differences were found to be less than 20 cm s−1 for the zonal and meridional components in the buoy comparison. The observed current velocity was also found to exhibit reasonable
agreement with the shipboard ADCP data. It was shown that the HF radars clearly capture seasonal and short-term variations
of the SWC. The velocity of the Soya Warm Current reaches its maximum, approximately 1 m s−1, in summer and weakens in winter. The velocity core is located 20 to 30 km from the coast, and its width is approximately
40 km. The surface transport by the SWC shows a significant correlation with the sea level difference along the strait, as
derived from coastal tide gauge records at Wakkanai and Abashiri.

The paleolimnology of two lakes which were isolated as a result of the crustal uplift during the late Holocene along the Soya Coast, Lützow-Holm Bay, East Antarctica were studied. The focus was on temporal variations in the biogeochemical composition of sediment cores recovered from Lake Skallen at Skallen and Lake Oyako at Skarvsnes. Both sets of lake sediments record environmental changes associated with a transition from marine to lacustrine settings, as indicated by analyses of C and N contents, nitrogen isotopic compositions (δ15N), and major element concentrations. Changes in the dominant primary producers during the marine–lacustrine transition (marine diatom to cyanobacteria) at L. Skallen was clearly revealed by biogenic opal-A, diatom assemblages, and molecular signature from denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) with 16S ribosomal RNA (rRNA) gene analysis. Radiocarbon dating of acid-insoluble organic C suggested that the environmental transition from marine to fresh water occurred at 2940 ± 100 cal yr BP at L. Skallen and 1060 ± 90 cal yr BP at L. Oyako. Based on these data, a mean crustal uplift rate of 3.2 mm yr−1 is inferred for the history of marine–lacustrine transition via brackish conditions. The geological setting causing glacio-isostatic uplift was the primary factor in controlling the transition event in sedimentary and biological facies. 相似文献

Dynamic analysis of ground with rigorous use of strain dependency and its application to seismic microzonation of alluvial plane 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Seismic microzonation is one of the most important measures to mitigate earthquake hazards in urban areas. Because the ground motion varies significantly with the subsurface geology, it is needed for microzonation to account as much as possible for the local soil conditions. Noteworthy is that nonlinear deformation properties of soil play essential roles in amplification of strong ground motion. It is desired furthermore to focus on the expected damage extent in addition to the calculated maximum acceleration and/or velocity. The present study first developed a computer code for one-dimensional response analysis of ground that reasonably takes into account nonlinear dynamic soil properties. Second, correlations between the calculated ground motion and damage extent were obtained by examining seismic damages during the past earthquakes. By combining these two issues, seismic microzonation was carried out, and detailed damage distribution was assessed. The product of this study covers not only the damage caused by ground shaking but also liquefaction problem and lifeline damage. 相似文献

The density and the undrained shear strength (s u) of bed sediments at either side of the Isahaya Bay dike in the Ariake Sea, Japan, were investigated using nuclear density cone penetration tests (ND-CPTs). The nuclear density cone penetrometer (ND-CP) was operated from a boat, conducting 71 ND-CPTs. Furthermore, 26 undisturbed samples were obtained for soil density and s u measurements to calibrate the ND-CPT data. The results show that the density and s u obtained from in situ with the ND-CPTs agree well with those from the laboratory tests on undisturbed samples, and the obtained density profiles show good repeatability. The vertical variation in density and s u of the bed sediment can be obtained from the ND-CPT results. The relations between the density and s u show that s u increases with an increase in density, but that this relation is site specific. The values of s u show an exponentially growing trend and the values of log s u show a linearly increasing trend with density. The vertical distribution of the bed sediments can be described using the density values obtained with the ND-CPT. 相似文献

Two short geomagnetic episodes in the middle Matuyama epoch have been identified within thin (4.3-mm) sections of two deep-sea calcareous sediment cores taken in the western equatorial Pacific. Both cores are correlated by magnetostratigraphic and micropaleontological methods. Magnetic stability and paleomagnetic reliability are tested by alternating field demagnetization of natural remanent magnetization as well as by the ratios of intensities of anhysteretic remanent magnetization to those of saturation isothermal remanent magnetization. One episode is dated to be 1.06 m.y. BP. The other is identified to be about 1.94 m.y. BP, which is presumably in agreement with the Reunion event. Both episodes seem to be accompanied by conspicuous drops in field intensity. Possible correlation of field intensity with biological productivity in the ocean is also postulated from the present paleomagnetic results. 相似文献
