Study on the Temporal-spatial Distribution Characteristics of Extreme Precipitation in Jiangsu Province

[Objective] The rasearch aimed to grasp the spatial and temporal distribution charactedstics of extreme precipitation in Jiangsu Prov- ince. [Methodl Threshold was determined by detrended fluctuation analysis （DFA） based on the data of daily precipitation over Jiangsu Province from 1961 to 2010, and the oscillation pedod and mutation were detected by the method of Morlet wavelet analysis and Mann-Kendall test respec- tively. [ Result~ The annual frequency of extreme precipitation in Jiangsu Province demonstrated oscillation characteristics with 8 -10 a, and the mutation mainly happened in 2006, In addition, the oscillation period of extreme precipitation during summer was 8 -10 a, and its mutation hap- pened in 1998. The oscillation periods of extreme precipitation, however, during autumn were 2 -3 and 5 -7 a. Extreme precipitation and total rain- fall had better consistency. They both presented the characteristics of more in the south and less in the north, and big-small-value zone was concentrated. [ Conclusion] The research could provide technical support for making defense policy of the related disaster for relevant departments.

Blue-shifted and naked-eye recognition of H_(2)PO_(4)- and acetylacetone based on a luminescent metal-organic framework with new topology and good stability

Fluorescence detecting both organic and inorganic analytes has aroused tremendous scientific interests, because fluorescence techniques have high sensitivity and are easy to operate. A new threedimensional(3D) MOF {[(CH_(3))_(2)NH_(2)][Zn_(3)(bbip)(BTDI)1.5(OH)]·DMF·MeOH·3H_(2)O}n(JXUST-13, bbip = 2,6-bis(benzimidazol-1-yl)pyridine and H_(4)BTDI = 5,5-(benzo[c][1,2,5]thiadiazole-4,7-diyl)diisophthalic acid)with new 4,4,8-connceted topology has been successfully synthesized and structurally characterized. Importantly, JXUST-13 could recognize H_(2)PO_(4)-and acetylacetone(Acac) by obvious fluorescence blue shift and slight enhancement with the detection limits of 2.70 μmol/L and 0.21 mmol/L, respectively. In addition, JXUST-13 exhibits relatively good thermal stability, chemical stabilities as well as reusability, and the analytes could be distinguished by naked eye and fluorescence test paper. Remarkably, JXUST-13 is the first dual-responsive MOF sensor based on fluorescence blue shift for the detection of H_(2)PO_(4)-and Acac with good selectivity in a handy, economic, and environmentally friendly manner.

Raindrop Size Distribution Parameters Retrieved from Guangzhou S-band Polarimetric Radar Observations

According to the statistical shape-slope （μ-A） relationship observed for the first time by several 2D-Video-Distro-meters （2DVD） in southern China, a constrained gamma （C-G） model was proposed for the retrieval of rain drop size distributions （DSDs） from Guangzhou S-band polarimetric radar observations. Two typical precipitation processes were selected to verify the accuracy of the retrieval scheme. The p-A relationship： A = 0.0241μ^2 ＋ 0.867μ ＋ 2.453 was obtained based on the 2DVD observation results from at Huizhou Longmen station, which is a very representat-ive location in the area. Relying on the Guangzhou polarimetric radar measurements of radar reflectivity （ZHH） and differential reflectivity （ZDR）, the gamma （F） size distribution parameters （No, μ, and A） can be retrieved by the C-G model retrieval scheme. The results show that the Guangzhou polarimetric radar retrievals of DSDs were close to the 2DVD observations at Guangzhou Maofengshan station. The rain rate, mass mean diameter, and normalized inter-cept parameter of radar retrievals were in good agreement with the 2DVD observations, and the relative errors were less than 10%. The overall accuracy of the retrieval scheme was high. The retrieval scheme has established the rela-tionship between the polarimetric radar measurements and gamma size distribution parameters. It will be helpful to in-depth research and application of the dual-polarization radar data in microphysical precipitation processes analysis, as well as convection-resolved numerical model data assimilation and prediction effect evaluation.

Highly selective and turn-on fluorescence probe with red shift emission for naked-eye detecting Al^(3+)and Ga^(3+)based on metal-organic framework

A novel ZnII-based metal-organic framework with the formula of{[Zn_(2)(BBIP)_(2)(NDC)_(2)]·H_(2)O}n(JXUST-5)derived from 3,5-bis(benzimidazol-1-yl)pyridine(BBIP)and 1,4-naphthalenedicarboxylic acid(H_(2)NDC)has been synthesized.The adjacent Zn^(II)ions are linked through two BBIP ligands to form a[Zn_(2)(BBIP)_(2)]secondary building unit(SBU).The neighbouring SBUs are further connected by NDC^(2-)withμ2-η^(1):η^(1)andμ2-η^(1):η^(1):η^(1)bridging modes to form a two-dimensional(2D)framework.Topological analysis shows that JXUST-5 could be simplified as an uninodal fes topology with a point symbol of{4.8^(2)}.Furthermore,the 2D framework net could be extended through C-H···πinteraction to form the three-dimensional supramolecular structure.Luminescent experiments suggest that JXUST-5 could selectively and sensitively recognize Al^(3+)and Ga^(3+)through fluorescence enhancement effect along with a relatively large red shift.The detection limits for Al^(3+)and Ga^(3+)are 0.17 and 0.69 ppm,respectively.Interestingly,the sensing process for both Al^(3+)and Ga^(3+)could be directly observed with naked eyes under 365 nm UV lamp.Notably,JXUST-5 could be recycled at least five times as a fluorescent sensor toward Al^(3+)and Ga^(3+),which is the second example of turn-on MOF based fluorescent sensor toward Ga^(3+).
