The determination of national leveling datum and its disadvantages were discussed firstly. The local mean sea level and chart datum with its guarantee rate of navigation safety were studied secondly. The models of unification of national surveying vertical datum, such as optimization model of mean sea level, adoption of New Chinese quasi-geoid of 2000(CQG2000) and time-invariant global geoid were suggested finally.展开更多

Introducting a deformation datum parameter into model parameter vector can enable the reference station to be set in the epicentral areas. Two improved inversionmethods, the deformation datum parameter (DDP) method and deformation difference (DD) method, are advanced in this paper. They are further applied to dislocation model inversion of the 1990 Gonghe Ms7.0 earthquake. The inversion results inferred by using the two methods are well consistent with each other, which basically reflect the source geometry and the slip of the causative fault.展开更多

Thus, we project that the magnitude of SLR for the Shanghai coast ranges from 10 cm to 16 cm from 2011 to 2030, Clarifying SLR behaviors is important to aid local decision- makers in planning structural and non-structural measures to combat escalating flood damage costs in an estuarine delta system; this field is full of future challenges,展开更多
