ZHANG Lu, PENG Yan, LI Qianhui, ZHANG Hongsheng, HE Qing, Ali Mamtimin
Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis    2023, 59 (4): 581-592.   DOI: 10.13209/j.0479-8023.2023.045

Based on the near-surface atmospheric turbulence observation in the National Observation and Research Station of Desert Meteorology, Taklimakan Desert of Xinjiang in July 2016, the characteristics of turbulent transport in the unstable atmospheric surface layer in the hinterland of Taklimakan Desert are investigated. With the methods of eddy covariance, quadrant analysis, and spectra analysis, the dissimilarity between the turbulent transport of heat and momentum under different atmospheric instability is analyzed, and its potential physical mechanism is further explored. The results indicate that, under near-neutral conditions, the turbulent transport of heat and momentum is similar. However, as the atmospheric instability increases, the transport dissimilarity between heat and momentum becomes increasingly significant. Heat is transported more efficiently than momentum, while the turbulent transport of momentum shows a great randomness under the strongly thermal condition. This dissimilarity is closely related to the topology of turbulent coherent structures. Under unstable conditions, the coherent structure is dominated by thermal plume. It can induce synchronous changes in potential temperature and vertical velocity, but is difficult to lead corresponding changes in horizontal velocity. The difference in the physical mechanism of turbulent motion is the main reason for the significant dissimilarity between the turbulent transport of heat and momentum with increasing atmospheric instability.

YUAN Han, WANG Xiaojun, ZHANG Hongjian, MOU Yu, WANG Lei, WANG Chen
Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis    2022, 58 (6): 977-988.   DOI: 10.13209/j.0479-8023.2022.084

In order to describe the lateral vibration of the landing gear caused by landing of launch vehicle, an equivalent model for the excitation of landing impact is proposed. In this model, the excitation is equivalent to the superposition of impact excitation and steady excitation. Secondly, the bending vibration modes of the landing gear are established by the assumed mode method, where the coupling term of the longitudinal deformation caused by transverse deformation is included in the expression of bending vibration. The dynamic response, excited by the landing impact, is solved by the mode superposition method, so as to obtain a semi-analytical solution for the problem. The real product experiments of vertical landing impact show that the proposed model is able to accurately describe the lateral vibration and maximum moment of the landing gear. Finally, we analyze how the parameters of the configuration and strength of materials affect the landing gear using the proposed model. The result can guide the parameter design of the landing gear in the engineering implementation.

Based on the data collected at the Atmospheric Turbulence and Atmospheric Environment Experimental Station in east China from November 2015 to November 2016, the methane flux over farmland was estimated using the relaxed eddy accumulation (REA) method. During the experiment, the empirical coefficients b of various scalars including temperature, water vapor, carbon dioxide and methane for the REA method were 0.59, 0.59, 0.59 and 0.58, respectively. The median of b decreased with the increase of the normalized sampling threshold HREA. The minimum dispersion of b for each scalar was reached with HREA=0.8. The methane flux obtained by the REA method with T as the proxy scalar was highly consistent with the flux obtained by the EC method, showing that the REA method was suitable for measuring methane flux.

WEI Zhuorui, ZHANG Hongsheng, LI Qianhui, REN Yan, KANG Ling, WANG Pengfei, LIU Haibo
Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis    2022, 58 (1): 186-194.   DOI: 10.13209/j.0479-8023.2021.122

Based on the observational data of a self-developed fast-response air pressure sensor at the Atmospheric Boundary Layer and Atmospheric Environment Comprehensive Experimental Station in the Horqin area, Inner Mongolia in the summer of 2019, the characteristic parameters of the pressure fluctuations were calculated, and the spectral characteristics of the pressure fluctuations and the characteristics of the pressure standard deviation were studied. The results show that the self-developed fast-response air pressure sensor can reflect the rapid fluctuations of pressure, and the frequency response is close to 1 Hz. The variance spectra of the pressure fluctuations satisfy the n-2 scaling law in the frequency range from 0.0006 to 0.5 Hz, and the peak frequency is lower than that of the wind speed and temperature. The normalized variance spectra of pressure fluctuations under different atmospheric stabilities merge into a single line in the high-frequency range and distribute around the stability parameter in the low-frequency range. The contribution of pressure fluctuations to turbulent energy is mainly at larger scales, while that of the wind speed and temperature is mainly at smaller scales. The standard deviation and fluctuation intensity of the pressure have obvious diurnal variation characteristics, which is strong during the daytime and weak during the nighttime.

Experimental Study on the Turbulence Characteristics and Flux Acquisition of PM2.5
REN Yan, LI Qianhui, ZHANG Hongsheng, KANG Ling
Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis    2021, 57 (6): 1019-1026.   DOI: 10.13209/j.0479-8023.2021.082
Abstract591)   HTML    PDF(pc) (9904KB)(168)       Save
The authors use the high-frequency sampling function of the fine particle mass concentration measurement instrument E-Sampler and the eddy covariance method to calculate PM2.5 concentration fluctuation and turbulent flux of the multiple pollution events of the Dezhou city atmospheric environment experimental station in Shandong Province from December 27, 2018 to January 7, 2019, and the turbulence characteristics of PM2.5 concentration are discussed. The results show that the mean value of the turbulent flux of PM2.5 concentration during the observation period is 0.026 μg/(m2·s). The transmission direction of the turbulent flux of PM2.5 concentration in different pollution processes is different, indicating that the sink or source property is not static. With the increase of turbulence statistical characteristic quantities (such as turbulent kinetic energy, standard deviation of horizontal wind speed, standard deviation of vertical wind speed, horizontal wind speed, momentum flux and sensible heat flux), the vertical flux of PM2.5 decreases exponentially, namely, it decreases sharply, and then changes little with the increase of each variable. With the increase of the concentration of PM2.5, the absolute value of the turbulent flux of PM2.5 shows an increasing trend. The turbulent vertical flux of PM2.5 concentration is related to the PM2.5 concentration and the intensity of turbulence. The normalized standard deviation of PM2.5 concentration and the stability parameter ζ = z/L follow the -1/3 power relationship under unstable conditions, that is σc/C* = 6.7(-ζ)-1/3. Under stable conditions, the experimental results are relatively discrete. In addition, the variance spectrum curve of PM2.5 concentration satisfies the -2/3 power exponential rate in the high frequency range, and the covariance spectrum curve of the PM2.5 concentration and the vertical wind speed satisfies the ?4/3 power exponential rate in the high frequency band. The result shows that 1 Hz high-frequency sampling function of E-Sampler can obtain continuous and effective turbulent flux of PM2.5 concentration.

KANG Ling, ZHU Hao, HUANG Qianqian, LIU Xinjian, LIN Hongtao, CAI Xuhui, SONG Yu, ZHANG Hongsheng
Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis    2021, 57 (6): 1006-1018.   DOI: 10.13209/j.0479-8023.2021.081

The hourly WRF forecast wind fields with a resolution of 1 km is used as the input of the CALMET diagnostic model to generate wind fields with different temporal and spatial resolutions, which drive CALPUFF to obtain concentration fields with a resolution of 50 m per minute. The impact of the temporal and spatial resolution of CALMET meteorological fields on the concentration fields and the calculation time of each scheme are analyzed. The results show that satisfactory wind field and concentration field can be obtained even with coarse temporal and spatial resolution at stable wind direction and high wind speed conditions. The temporal and spatial resolution has a significant impact on the wind and concentration fields when the wind direction changes and the wind speed is low. The difference between concentration fields driven by various meteorological schemes can be as high as 40%. During the transition of the wind field, the accuracy of the concentration field will worsen with finer meteorological grid if the modeling time step of CALMET is greater than 30 minutes. The longer the modeling time step is, the more significant the deviation of the concentration field is. Considering the calculation time and the accuracy of the concentration field simulation, CALMET meteorological scheme with a time step of 10 min and a grid resolution of 400 m is recommended in the emergency early warning of air pollution accidents.

A comprehensive experiment on semi-arid underlying surface was carried out at the comprehensive experimental station of atmospheric science and atmospheric environment in Horqin, Inner Mongolia during July 3th to 16th in 2016. Using high-precision GPS sounding data of the atmospheric boundary layer (ABL), the structure of the ABL in the semi-arid North China under different weather conditions (sunny, cloudy and rainy) was analyzed. The atmospheric boundary layer height (ABLH) was determined by different methods and criteria. In addition, the characteristics of low-level jets (LLJs), surface turbulent flux and surface energy budget were discussed. The results indicate that the average height of the ABL is 1790 m during the day while it is 250 m at night when sunny. In the cloudy day, the average ABLH is 980 m in daytime and 430 m at night. The turbulent kinetic energy in the surface layer shows a strong correlation with ABLH at night. LLJs mostly occur at midnight, with an average altitude of approximately 390 m, and there is a positive correlation between the intensity and the altitude of LLJs.

The authors propose a neural model based on word embedding with entry embedding and attention mechanism, which can make full use of the unstructured text in the electronic medical record to achieve automated ICD coding for the main diagnosis of the medical record home page. This method first embeds the words which contain the medical record entries into word embeddings, and enriches word-level representation based on keyword attention. Then, the word attention is used to highlight the role of key words and enhance the text representation. Finally, ICD codes are output by a fully connected neural network classifier. Ablation study on a Chinese electronic medical record data set shows that word embedding with entry embedding, keyword attention and word attention is effective. The proposed model gets the best results for 81 diseases classification compared with baselines and can effectively improve the quality of automated ICD coding.

Study of the Influence of Wind Field Uncertainty in Atmospheric Diffusion Emergency Forecast
ZHENG Yufan, CAI Xuhui, KANG Ling, ZHANG Hongsheng, SONG Yu
Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis    2019, 55 (5): 878-886.   DOI: 10.13209/j.0479-8023.2019.058

This paper studies deviations and uncertainties of atmospheric diffusion caused by wind field forecasting, in conditions of emergency release. WRF and CALMET were used to create a 40 km fine-mesh meteorological forecast field and a diagnostic field with local data. In the simulation, we traced the emissions in January, April, July and October which are representative of four seasons and the emissions in four typical situations. The analysis shows that the forecasts are consistent with the diagnosis in 80% of the year and the change of seasons does not affect significantly, while the rest 20% is shared by different plume shape and significant deviations, each accounting for about 10%. Downwind concentration varies with emission height and downwind distance. The maximum deviation occurs when the height is 20?100 m and the distance is 2?4 km, while the result is highly uncertain when the height is 100 m and the distance is shorter than 2 km. The significant deviations occur in two situations. In the first, the time of the important transition of the local wind field predicted by the meteorological field is inconsistent, so that the forecast wind field and the actual wind field are in an asynchronous state before and after the transition, which causes a major deviation in the pollution diffusion forecast results. In the second, WRF, which systematically overestimates the wind speed (at 50% approximately), leads to systematically lower forecasted concentration.

An experimental apparatus was designed to test the pivoting friction moment of annular friction disc under either constant normal force and variable normal force. The experimental results demonstrated the applicability of the classical pivoting friction model under the continuous variable normal contact force, and showed that the rotary velocity affects the properties of the pivoting friction. By considering the Stribeck effect of the local friction at a contact point, a theoretical model was proposed for the pivoting friction. Good agreement between proposed theoretical and experimental results sheds light on the physical mechanism underlying the pivoting friction.

The oil geology feature of Vienna Basin was summarized and potential of exploration was discussed by analysising the strata of Vienna Basin and fracture development characteristics. Vienna Basin is a pull-apart basin located between the East Alps and West Carpathian. Its basement is composed of the Hercynian Bohemian Massif and Paleozoic and Mesozoic strata. The tectonic evolution can be divided into three stages, including Jurassic extensional rifting, Cretaceous-Early Miocene over-thrusting and Middle Miocene pull-parting stage. There are three structural lays from top to bottom, Jurassic-Cretaceous autochthonous, Permian-Paleogene allochthonous Alpine nappes and Neogene sediments. There are two sets of source rocks: the upper Jurassic marls and Paleogene shale, among which, the Upper Jurassic Kimmeridgian Malmian marls are considered to be the major source rocks. Reservoirs occur at various horizons from Triassic to Neogene Miocene strata, among which, the most important reservoirs are Miocene sandstones that deposit in shallow-water delta environment and contain 76% of all reserves, and the minor reservoirs are the Triassic dolosparite. Neogene shales provide the regional top-seal. After evaluation, it is considered that Mesozoic allochthonous napps (flysch turbidite and Triassic dolomite) and Mesozoic autochthonous succession (the second and the third structural layer) are the most prospective for exploration.

Petrogenesis of the Early Cretaceous Qingcaoshan Strongly Peraluminous S-Type Granitic Pluton, Southern Qiangtang, Northern Tibet: Constraints from Whole-Rock Geochemistry and Zircon U-Pb Geochronology
LIU Hong, ZHANG Hui, LI Guangming, HUANG Hanxiao, XIAO Wanfeng, YOU Qin, MA Dongfang, ZHANG Hai, ZHANG Hong
Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis    2016, 52 (5): 848-860.   DOI: 10.13209/j.0479-8023.2016.045

The Qingcaoshan granitic pluton, located in the Zhapu-Duobuza magmatic arc in southern Qiangtang, consists of granite porphyry and quartz monzonitic porphyry. However, the age and genesis are not studied due to absence of geochemical and geochronological data. The weighted average 206Pb/238U age of 122±1 Ma (MSWD=3.9) for quartz monzonitic porphyry and 114.6±1.2 Ma (MSWD=1.1) for granite porphyry is present by LA-ICPMS and SHRIMP zircon U-Pb dating. The intrusion have minor muscovite and cordierite, no hornblende. The granitic pluton is characterized by enriched Al (A12O3: 14.81%-15.86%), depleted Ca (CaO: 1.10%-2.44%), and high content of alkali (K2O+Na2O: 6.86%-8.80%). Father more, it is also characterized by ASI of 1.1 (A/CNK: 1.06-1.20), corundum (1.20%-2.86%) and absence of diopside showed through CIPW calculation, which are indicative of peraluminous sub-alkaline S-type graniten. The intrusive rock is relatively enriched in large ion lithophile elements (Rb, Th, U, K, La, Ce) and depleted in high field strength elements (Ta, Nb, P, Ti, Y), and exhibits LREE-enriched ((La/Yb)N: 3.24-16.20) with right-inclined REE distribution patterns. A synthesis of all these characteristics indicates that the Qingcaoshan granitic pluton was probably derived from partial melting of greywacke components in the upper crust as a result of norward subduction of the Bangong Co-Nujiang oceanic crust towards the Qiangtang block.

Acta Scientiarum Naturalium Universitatis Pekinensis    2016, 52 (5): 809-818.   DOI: 10.13209/j.0479-8023.2015.141

Based on the observational atmospheric turbulent data obtained from 255-m tower in Tianjin, the characteristics of different atmospheric variables and turbulent transfer during the fog periods were studied. The results show that before the fog, there exists high humidity, and the height of inversion reaches to 100 m. The inversion of radiation fog is stronger than that of the advection fog. During the fog, the inversion continues strengthening. With the lifting of inversion, the neutral and unstable stratification occurres which means the dissipation of fogs. Meanwhile, the development of inversion in the radiation fog is more obvious than that in advection fogs, the height of radiation fogs is lower than that of advection fogs, and the main reasons for the dissipation of radiation and advection fogs are temperature and wind speed, respectively. The stratification is changed by the fog period, resulting in an unstable nocturnal atmosphere. The vertical transfer is weak and the horizontal transfer strengthened in the later stage. The increasing in the ratio of mean kinetic energy to turbulent kinetic energy before the fog can be treated as the signal of the occurrence of fog and the decreasing marks the dissipation of fog.

Abstract790)      PDF(pc) (1861KB)(471)       Save
In order to accurately locate the microseism sources, a thorough knowledge of the velocity model between the treatment well and monitoring well is essential. A new method is developed to invert the velocity model based on Occam inversion algorithm. Instead of the travel times, this method adopts the moveouts of the first arrivals to invert the velocity models, so it can overcome the limitation of conventional approaches when the perforation origin times are unavailable or measured inaccurately. The feasibility of this method is examined on synthetic datasets. The results demonstrate that although the velocity models obtained using this method show some discrepancies, which are caused by the picking errors, they can locate the perforation shots back to their expected positions, so the inverted velocity models can be used to locate the microseism sources.

With the brief view of the application of meteorological data obtained by aircraft, based on the continuous wind data obtained by aircraft and WPR (Wind Profile Radar) from August 2009 to June 2010, in Shanghai, the authors analyze the application of airborne meteorological instrument measurements in the atmospheric boundary layer and puts forwards some possible error resources. Meanwhile, the correction methods are proposed. It is shown that the main difference between two observation methods is attributed to the systematic deviations of the instrument. At vertical levels other than the 300 to 1500 m height and with air temperature less than -8 °C and wind speed less than 1 m/s, the discrepancy between the horizontal wind speed obtained by aircraft and WPR increases significantly, which shows the limitation of airborne instrument measurements under this condition. The corrected aircraft data reveal the general pattern of the wind profile structure of the boundary layer in Shanghai.

The ionic imprinted polymer (IIP) of uranyl ion (UO22+) was synthesized by the formation of binary complexes of UO22+ with 1,3-dioxo-1,3-diphenylpropan-2-yl methacrylate (DBM-MAA) as functional monomer followed by thermal copolymerization with ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) as cross-linking monomer in the presence of 2,2′-azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as initiator and 1,4-dioxane as porogenic solvent. 50 mmol/L HCl solution was used to leach out UO22+ ions from the polymer. The IIP formed with 1:3 molar ratio of UO22+ to DBM-MAA showed better enrichment of uranyl ion from dilute aqueous solution than others and hence was chosen for detailed studies. The maximum adsorption capaci(NH4)4[UO2(CO3)3]sub>)3] solution was 9.4 mg U/g. The prepared IIP could selectively separate UO22+ from other metal ions, such as Li+, Na+, K+ and Rb+.

A synthetic tilt data is used to demonstrate the accuracy of this new approach when inversing the hydraulic fracture parameters such as central position, azimuth, dip and volume. Compared with conventional gradient-based approaches or Bayesian inversion method, the new SA-based method can not only estimate the fracture parameters effectively, but also enlarge the objective function’s convergent region significantly. It relieves the accuracy requirement on initial guess, so that its applicable scope is extended significantly, and any prior fracture information to start with is unnecessary. This study provides algorithmic foundation for the real-time calculation of fracture parameters during hydraulic fracturing.

Based on data from a comprehensive atmospheric dispersion experiment of high temporal and spatial resolution over a complex hilly-valley area in Hunan province, the applicability of USEPA (United States Environmental Protection Agency) recommended guideline model CALPUFF (California Puff Model) in near field over complex terrain was investigated. Using diagnostic wind fields of different temporal resolutions and various dispersion schemes, the near-field concentration distributions under various meteorological conditions were simulated and compared with the observed tracer concentrations. The results show that using the measured turbulence profiles to calculate dispersion parameters can better simulate near-field concentration distributions. The modeling results can be improved if the fitted relationships between standard deviations of turbulent velocities and stability parameters are used instead of the default CALPUFF turbulence parameterization scheme. The modeling results are not sensitive to the temporal resolution of wind fields and dispersion schemes when the wind speed is high and wind direction is steady. However, under low and variable wind conditions, the 10 min wind field is needed to model the ground concentration distributions. The modeling results of measured turbulence scheme are higher than those of similarity scheme and closer to the observed values. Overall, CALPUFF modeling system can well simulate the near-field peak concentrations over this hilly-valley complex terrain by using either the hourly wind field and turbulent measurement or 10 min wind field and modified similarity scheme.

Observations of VOCs concentration were conducted at a litchi plantation in the Pearl River Delta in July 2008 and February-March 2009 respectively. VOCs fluxes were estimated based on the relationship of flux-gradient and REA method using the VOCs concentration data. Statistical evidence indicates that the major emission matter is isoprene with a typical daytime mean flux 0.932 nmol/(m2?s) in the growing season over the litchi plantation. While in the non growing season, the flux is negligible. This study provides a reliable reference not only for emission rates for litchi and manmade plantation, but also for usage of micrometeorological methods to measure VOCs fluxes.

Parameterization of dust emission flux is an important factor to accurately simulate and predict dust events. The data measured by field experiments can be used directly to evaluate the parameterization schemes. On the basis of explaining the physical mechanism, parameterization schemes and data inputs of various dust emission models, the authors investigate their similarities and differences. The field measurements of dust emission flux are critically needed for the validation, calibration and improvement of dust emission models. The gradient method and dust particle concentration measurements are two common methods to measure the dust emission flux during field experiments. The existing problems and future research directions are discussed by comparing the model parameterization schemes and results of field measurements.

Using the micrometeorological data obtained over the moving sand dune in Keerqin sand area in Inner Mongolia in summer of 2001 and spring of 2002, the surface temperature was determined and the characteristics were analyzed over the sand dune area. The idea is using discrete Fourier transform on the temperatures of different layers and applying soil heat conduction equation. The results are that soil temperature conductivity ratios which are calculated from the decline of the soil temperature amplitude and phase difference agree well under the assumption of layered homogeneity. The surface temperature was calculated using the relationship of the soil temperature conductivity ratios at different depths and the amplitude and phase of dominant and harmonic frequencies of soil temperature. The surface temperatures calculated from observed soil temperatures at 5 cm and 10 cm depth show a good agreement. The amplitude of soil temperature waves decreases exponentially with depth. The diurnal variation of soil temperature at 80 cm is small.

The effects of K2CO3 on combustion property and kinetics of different fraction coal samples were investigated with a non-isothermal thermogravimetry. The results show that K2CO3 can improve the combustibility of pulverized coal. When the optimum value of the K2CO3 loading is 15%, the ignition temperature of the lower density fraction decreases by 56.7 ℃ comparing with a medium density fraction decreasing by 30 ℃. The temperature of maximum rate decreases first and then increases with the load of K2CO3 increasing, but it is always lower than untreated coal. K2CO3 has more effect on coal sample with low density fraction than that with high density fraction under the best circumstance, because of high mineral content and low K+ iron in medium density fraction. Oxygen-transfer can explain the reason and K2CO3 reduce the apparent activated energy.

In order to avoid some shortages of traditional ecological footprint model, the authors proposed an integrated model by using emergy theory, which is named as Emergy-Ecological Footprint Integrated Model. In ecological carrying capacity calculation, the proposed model adds the carrying capacity of actual product output and virtual product supply based on material input-output theory and people ’s innovation. In ecological footprint calculation, the proposed model considers waste ecological footprint into evaluation system. Finally, the proposed model is applied in Tianjin eco-city evaluation from 2001 to 2008. The calculating result shows that the ecological carrying capacity is higher than ecological footprint, and ecological surplus is in rising tendency which expresses that Tianj in is in sustainable state.

Based on the data collected at a 255 m tower during an atmospheric boundary layer experiment in Tianjin, the micro-structures of turbulence and characteristics of energy transfer during an advective fog process in February 2006 are analyzed. Combined with the cold front passage, clear and weak wind condition, and light fog, the characteristics of turbulent kinetic energy during the fog process are discussed. The results show that the peak frequencies of energy spectral density for all directions are at the higher frequency part during the fog occuring, while being at the lower frequency part before the fog formation and after the fog dissipation. Compared with the velocity spectra, the peak frequency change of temperature spectra is larger than that of velocity spectra before the fog formation. As the fog dissipates, the peak frequency of temperature spectra is lower than that of velocity spectra. During the fog, the mean kinetic energy shows a smaller value, while the turbulent disturbance is active, and the vertical turbulent momentum transfer is dominant. The abrupt rising of mean and turbulent kinetic energy before the fog formation may be regarded as the starting signal of advective fog.
