The orbits of (69230) Hermes and 2002 SY₅₀ are similar and the Earth approaches both of them twice: at the end of October the local orbital minimum distances are smaller than 0.007 AU, and at the end of April the distances are smaller than 0.04 AU. This gives us opportunities to observe the meteors associated with these asteroids. Using the geocentric parameters of the orbital close encounters (the theoretical radiants) and our D _N distance function (Valsecchi et al. Mon. Not. R. Astron. Soc. 304 (1999) 743), we searched for meteoroids originated by Hermes and 2002 SY₅₀. A search among 1830 good quality photographic meteors gave negative results: we found no meteor dynamically similar to Hermes or 2002 SY₅₀. In a second search, done in a set of 62150 radio meteors, we applied two methods (M1, M2) and in both cases we found two streams; the streams found with the M1 method had 43 and 30 members, those found with the M2 method had 39 and 14 members. However, these results do not look convincing, due to the small number of common members in the corresponding streams. We therefore conclude that amongst the IAU meteors used in our search there are no compact streams associated with Hermes and 2002 SY₅₀.  相似文献

Intra-interstadial environmental changes in Last Glacial loess revealed by molluscan assemblages from the Upper Palaeolithic site of Amiens-Renancourt 1 (Somme,France)

The Amiens-Renancourt 1 site recently yielded one of the most important Upper Palaeolithic human occupations of northern France by the number of flint artefacts and especially by the presence of Venus figurines. All the material comes from a single archaeological layer located in a tundra gley bracketed by loess units. A multi-proxy study combining a detailed stratigraphy, luminescence and radiocarbon datings and high-resolution (5 cm per sample) grain size and molluscan analyses was therefore carried out to reconstruct and date the associated environmental changes and to determine the exact context of the human occupation. The chronological frame thus established supports the correlations of the archaeology-bearing tundra gley and of an underlying arctic brown soil with Greenland interstadials GI-4 and GI-3. Composition changes in the molluscan population enabled the identification of transitional and optimum phases and sub-phases within these two pedogenetic horizons. A conceptual correlation model linking molluscan phases with millennial-scale variations of Greenland ice-core and Sieben Hengste speleothem climate records is proposed. The Human occupation appears contemporaneous to the end of the stadial–interstadial transition of GI-3. Synchronous in Amiens-Renancourt 1 and Nussloch, subsequent micro-gleys may also result from a regional/global forcing. Such a level of detail is unprecedented in a loess sequence.  相似文献   

Contamination des sédiments superficiels des principales rivières du Canton de Genève par les Polychlorobiphényles et DDT     

Dr. Par Cl. Corvi  Dr. J. Vogel 《Aquatic Sciences - Research Across Boundaries》1985,47(1):12-20

The concentrations of PCBs and DDT at the surface of sediments of rivers in the Canton of Geneva were examined. Concentration variations observed along the rivers are discussed. In the case of the Rhône River, recent pollution at the surface of sediments is compared with that of aged underlying layers.  相似文献   

Impact des événements tectono-volcaniques plio-pléistocènes sur la sédimentation en République de Djibouti (Afar Central)

The volcanic and sedimentary successive paleogeographic reconstructions, as well the volcanic emissions as the fluvial, lacustrine and marine deposits, are compared to the tectonic mechanisms, and show that the geologic history is controlled:

1. During Pliocene and lower Pleistocene times, by a collapse tectonics in the Red Sea - Aden Gulf area with a correlative uplift of the Tadjoura - Ali Sabîh hörst (a southern prolongation of the Danakil horst), and by a tectonic shear according to a NE-SW trend, which gives rise to NW-SE trending uplifts and basins (Nazaret phase of the Ethiopian rift).
2. From the middle Pleistocene time, by the progressive opening, according to an EW direction, of the Gulf of Tadjoura, as a western prolongation of the Aden rift. A correlative epiglyptic arching, according to an EW direction, is located westwards. It appears as a superimposed structure with respect to the previous building.

The successive coastal uplifts since the lower Pleistocene are correlated to the successive alluvial deposits, which fit one-another, until the Holocene time included.  相似文献   

The Southern part of the Armorican orogeny: A result of crustal shortening related to reactivation of a pre-Hercynian mafic belt during Carboniferous time     

J.P. Lefort  Cl. Audren  M.D. Max 《Tectonophysics》1982,89(4):359-377

This synthesis of detailed geological and geophysical information relates deep crustal structure to deformation and the emplacement of granites in the South Armorican Massif and the adjacent continental shelf. Near the continental margin a zone of geophysical anomalies is regarded as a nearly complete line of suture between a southern continent and America. A major mafic body in the trace of the supposed suture in interpreted as a relic of probable oceanic crust which has apparently acted as a deflector of regional strain.It is proposed that late in the Hercynian collision history, during late Carboniferous time, compressional strain acted across the mafic body and can be directly related to generation of younger regional structures in the metasediments and to localization of granite emplacement.  相似文献   

Estimation of the transfer function by autoregressive deconvolution techniques—An application to time series analysis     

Y. S. Kang  J. J. Royer  Cl. Chambon  L. Demassieux 《Mathematical Geology》1992,24(5):479-498

The transfer function of time-dependent models is classically inferred by the ordinary least squares (OLS) techniques. This OLS technique assumes independence of the residuals with time. However, in practical cases, this hypothesis is often not justified producing inefficient estimation of the transfer function. When the residuals constitute an autoregressive process, we propose to apply the Box-Jenkins' method to model the residuals, and to modify in a simple manner the primary convolution equation. Then, a multivariate regression technique is used to infer the transfer function of the new equation producing time-independent residuals. This three-step autoregressive deconvolution technique is particularly efficient for time series analysis. The reconstitution and the forecasting of real data are improved efficiently. Theoretically, the proposed method can be extended to the convolution equations for which the residuals follow a moving average or an autoregressive-moving average process, but the mathematical formulation is no longer direct and explicit. For this general case, we propose to approximate the moving average or the autoregressive-moving average process by an autoregressive process of sufficient order, and then the transfer function. Two case studies in hydrogeology will be used to illustrate the procedure.  相似文献   

Analytical study of the energy rate balance equation for the magnetospheric storm-ring current     

A. L. Clúa de Gonzalez  W. D. Gonzalez 《Annales Geophysicae》1998,16(11):1445-1454

We present some results of the analytical integration of the energy rate balance equation, assuming that the input energy rate is proportional to the azimuthal interplanetary electric field, E_y, and can be described by simple rectangular or triangular functions, as approximations to the frequently observed shapes of E_y, especially during the passage of magnetic clouds. The input function is also parametrized by a reconnection-transfer efficiency factor (which is assumed to vary between 0.1 and 1). Our aim is to solve the balance equation and derive values for the decay parameter compatible with the observed Dst peak values. To facilitate the analytical integration we assume a constant value for through the main phase of the storm. The model is tested for two isolated and well-monitored intense storms. For these storms the analytical results are compared to those obtained by the numerical integration of the balance equation, based on the interplanetary data collected by the ISEE-3 satellite, with the values parametrized close to those obtained by the analytical study. From the best fit between this numerical integration and the observed Dst the most appropriate values of are then determined. Although we specifically focus on the main phase of the storms, this numerical integration has been also extended to the recovery phase by an independent adjust. The results of the best fit for the recovery phase show that the values of may differ drastically from those corresponding to the main phase. The values of the decay parameter for the main phase of each event, _m, are found to be very sensitive to the adopted efficiency factor, , decreasing as this factor increases. For the recovery phase, which is characterized by very low values of the power input, the response function becomes almost independent of the value of and the resulting values for the decay time parameter, _r, do not vary greatly as varies. As a consequence, the relative values of between the main and the recovery phase, _m/_r, can be greater or smaller than one as varies from 0.1 to 1.  相似文献
