Under more general conditions, the asymptotic unbiasedness and the asymptotic normality of the GM type estimator are derived. The simulation results show that the GM type spot volatility estimator has good estimation effect, and its mean square error tends to be less than that of the kernel spot volatility estimator discussed by Kristensen (2010), so it provides a selection method for estimating the spot volatility in high frequency data environment.展开更多

The construction of crustal model is based on digitization of original seismic sounding profiles, and new results of three-dimensional structure images of receiver functions. The crustal model includes seismic velocity and thickness of crustal layers. The depths to Moho indicate a thinning crust ~30 km in the east areas and a general westward deepening to more than 40 km in the west. The P wave velocity varies from 2.0 to 5.6 km/s in the sedimentary cover,from 5.8 to 6.4 km/s in the upper crust, and from 6.5 to 7.0 km/s in the lower crust. By analyzing regional trends in crustal structure and links to tectonic evolution illustrated by typical profiles, we conclude that:(1) The delimited area by the shallowing Moho in the eastern NCC represents the spatial range of the craton destruction. The present structure of the eastern NCC crust retains the tectonic information about craton destruction by extension and magmatism;(2) The tectonic activities of the craton destruction have modified the crustal structure of the convergence boundaries at the northern and southern margin of the NCC;(3) The Ordos terrene may represent a relatively stable tectonic feature in the NCC, but with the tectonic remnant of the continental collision during the assembly of the NCC in the north-east area and the response to the lateral expansion of the Tibetan Plateau during the Cenozoic in the south-west.展开更多

文摘We present a digital crustal model in North China Craton(NCC). The construction of crustal model is based on digitization of original seismic sounding profiles, and new results of three-dimensional structure images of receiver functions. The crustal model includes seismic velocity and thickness of crustal layers. The depths to Moho indicate a thinning crust ~30 km in the east areas and a general westward deepening to more than 40 km in the west. The P wave velocity varies from 2.0 to 5.6 km/s in the sedimentary cover,from 5.8 to 6.4 km/s in the upper crust, and from 6.5 to 7.0 km/s in the lower crust. By analyzing regional trends in crustal structure and links to tectonic evolution illustrated by typical profiles, we conclude that:(1) The delimited area by the shallowing Moho in the eastern NCC represents the spatial range of the craton destruction. The present structure of the eastern NCC crust retains the tectonic information about craton destruction by extension and magmatism;(2) The tectonic activities of the craton destruction have modified the crustal structure of the convergence boundaries at the northern and southern margin of the NCC;(3) The Ordos terrene may represent a relatively stable tectonic feature in the NCC, but with the tectonic remnant of the continental collision during the assembly of the NCC in the north-east area and the response to the lateral expansion of the Tibetan Plateau during the Cenozoic in the south-west.

文摘The severe bulk recombination and sluggish oxygen evolution reaction(OER)dynamics of photoanodes severely restrict the application of photoelectrochemical(PEC)devices.To solve these two problems,crystallographic facet orientation and cocatalyst emergence with a high-quality photoanode/cocatalyst interface were realized through an air annealing-assisted strategy to treat atomic layer deposition(ALD)-modified SnSnanosheet arrays.Based on experimental observations and theoretical calculations,the reduced(001)crystal facet of SnSdecreases the recombination of photogenerated carriers in the bulk and improves the carrier separation of the photoanode.Moreover,the unexpectedly formed ZnTiOSfilm decreases the overpotential of the surface OER,reduces interface recombination,and extends the carrier lifetime.These synergistic effects lead to significantly enhanced PEC performance,with a high photocurrent density of 1.97 mA cm^(-2)at 1.23 V vs.reversible hydrogen electrode(RHE)and a low onset potential of 0.21 V vs.RHE,which are superior to reported mostly SnS-based photoanodes.

文摘Aims Water level is one of the most important determinants of the distri-bution and composition of submersed aquatic vegetation in shal-low lakes.Without changes in nutrient loading,large-scale declines in submerged macrophytes in shallow lakes are largely attributed to strong external or internal forces,including changes in water level.As a winter-active submerged macrophyte,Potamogeton crispus has important functions in aquatic ecosystem.The objec-tives of our study were to reveal the effects of water depths on the germination,growth,reproduction and morphological changes of P.crispus under natural environmental conditions;identify the optimum water depth range for colonization of P.crispus;and pre-dict the succession course for P.crispus in Lake Taihu.Methods A long-term in situ experiment was performed to study the effects of water depth on the growth and morphology of P.crispus across the entire life cycle.Plants were grown in the improved cross type of rhizotrons for 30 weeks at three different water depths(60,120 and 200 cm)in Dongtaihu Bay of Lake Taihu.We measured the plant height,root length,the length and width of leaves and counted the numbers of leaves,ramets,turion spikes and roots of each plant on each observation day during the experiment.Important Findings Water depths ranging from 60 to 120 cm were favourable for above-ground vegetation growth,root tissue growth and the reproductive ability of P.crispus.At water depth of 200 cm or beyond,the distri-bution of P.crispus will be limited in the following year because of the lack of turion formation and the severe inhibition of ramet pro-duction.The relationship between above-ground biomass and growth time at three different water depths fits a logistic growth curve well(P<0.001).The rapid growth and distribution with high density of P.crispus at water depth near 60 cm during the reproductive stage is not favourable for growth of other submerged species.So a continuous water depth of~60-120 cm is the optimum growth depth range for the conservation and restoration of P.crispus in Lake Taihu.In addi-tion,the morphological parameters values acquired can replace or provide the ranges for the value of GmaxSB(the maximum growth rate of submerged plants,in the unit of d^(−1))obtained via calibration in the control equations of submerged plant growth in the Eco-Taihu model,which is a three-dimensional ecological model of Lake Taihu.

文摘Aims both high and low densities of macrophyte vegetation can impair its ecosystem service function.Harvesting is often applied to macrophyte vegetation to maintain an appropriate density.Vegetation harvesting has occasionally gone awry and caused catastrophes,such as vegetation disappearance and cyanobacterial dominance in waterways and lakes.because water depth influences macrophyte density at all life stages,the simultaneous influences of harvesting and water depth should be carefully examined.Thus,this study aims to quantify the effects of differently harvesting Elodea nuttal-lii on its growth and reproduction at different water depths in field experiments.Methods Four harvest intensities(harvesting E.nuttallii plant heights equal to 25%,50%,75%and 100%of the water depth)were applied to E.nuttallii growing at four different water depths(60,90,120 and 150 cm).Plant length and root length were measured.The node number,root number of each plant and number of floating plants were counted before harvesting.The harvested plant were dried to a constant weight for dry weight determination.Important Findings The rate of increase in the length and shoot number of E.nuttallii varied from−0.012 to 0.440 day^(−1) and from−0.020 to 0.639 day^(−1),respec-tively.Water depth>150 cm would limit E.nuttallii growth.Elodea nuttallii responded to increasing water depths and low-intensity har-vesting by increasing internodal length and decreasing shoot number.The larger internodal length of E.nuttallii observed in relatively deeper water was also induced by the physical strain generated by its buoy-ancy as its specific gravity was less than water’s.The physical mecha-nism of removing the plant canopy by harvesting decreased E.nuttallii buoyancy and prevented floating.Harvesting increased plant produc-tion in shallow waters<90 cm deep.moreover,it is also necessary to perform three medium-intensity harvests at a water depth of 120 cm and one low-intensity harvest or no harvesting at a water depth of 150 cm to achieve longer lifetimes and less biomass near the water surface when the plants reach or approach the water surface.

文摘Background:Sepsis is typically associated with poor outcomes.There are various risk factors and predictive mod-els for sepsis based on clinical indicators.However,these models are usually predictive of all critical patients.This study explored the risk factors for 28-day outcomes of patients with sepsis and developed a prognosis prediction model.Methods:This was a multicenter retrospective analysis of sepsis patients hospitalized in three intensive care units(ICUs)from September 1st 2015,to June 30th 2020.Demographic,clinical history,and laboratory test data were extracted from patient records.Investigators explored the risk factors affecting 28-day sepsis prognosis by univariate analysis.The effects of confounding factors were excluded by multivariate logistic regression analysis,and new joint predictive factors were calculated.A model predicting 28-day sepsis prognosis was constructed through data processing analysis.Results:A total of 545 patients with sepsis were included.The 28-day mortality rate was 32.3%.Risk factors including age,D-dimer,albumin,creatinine,and prothrombin time(PT)were predictive of death from sepsis.The goodness-of-fit value for this prediction model was 0.534,and the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve was 0.7207.Further analysis of the immune subgroups(n=140)revealed a significant decrease in CD3+,CD4+CD8-,and CD4+CD29+memory effector T lymphocytes and an increase in CD56+natural killer(NK)cells in the hypoalbuminemia group compared with the normal albumin group(65.5 vs.58.3,P=0.005;41.2 vs.32.4,P=0.005;21.8 vs.17.1,P=0.029;12.6 vs.17.6,P=0.004).Conclusions:Risk factors for 28-day sepsis mortality include age,D-dimer,creatinine,PT,and albumin.A decrease in albumin level may exacerbate immunosuppression in patients with sepsis.This study establishes a prediction model based on these indicators,which shows a good degree of calibration and differentiation.This model may provide good predictive value for clinical sepsis prognosis.
