Deuterium depth distribution study in Yb

The deuterium depth distribution for a 20 keV/D D_3^+beam implanted into ytterbium(Yb) at a temperature between 300 and 340 K was studied using the D(d,p)T reaction.By analyzing the proton yields,the deuterium depth distribution from the front surface to 500 nm depth was found.The results indicate that an equilibrium deuterium distribution region from the front surface to a depth approximately equal to the mean range of implanted deuterons was formed in Yb during the implantation.The deduced deuterium concentration in the equilibrium deuterium distribution region was D/Yb = 22%.

环F_(p)+vF_(p)+v^(2)F_(p)上常循环码的深度分布

In this paper,we studied the depth spectrum and the depth distribution of constacyclic codes over the non-chain ring R=F_(p)+vF_(p)+v^(2)F_(p),where v^(3)=v.By decomposing the linear codes C over R into the linear codes over the finite field F_(p),three corresponding constacyclic codes C_(1),C_(2),C_(3) over F_(p)were obtained.Furthermore,considering the depth spectrum of constacyclic codes over the finite filed F_(p),and the relationship between constacyclic codes C_(1),C_(2),C_(3) and C,the depth spectrum and the depth distribution of constacyclic codes over R were discussed.

Study on System of Faults in the Gulf of Mexico and Adjacent Region based on Gravity Data

In the Gulf of Mexico and adjacent landmasses,faults are very complex,and their distribution is closely related to plate tectonics,ocean-land boundary,and former structure.The plane position of the faults can be identified by the maximum characteristic of the vertical derivative of the normalized vertical derivative of the total horizontal derivative(NVDR-THDR)of the Bouguer gravity anomaly.The apparent depth of the faults is inverted by the Bouguer gravity anomaly curvature property.Based on tectonic evolutionary processes and the plane distribution and apparent depth characteristics of the faults,a complete fault system for the Gulf of Mexico and adjacent areas has been established,including 102 faults.The apparent depths of 33 first-class faults are 16-20 km and for 69 second-class faults are 12-16 km.The F_(1-2)and F_(1-3)subduction fault zones are two caused by the subduction of the Cocos Plate into the old Yucatan and Chorti landmasses;F_(1-11)and F_(1-12)fault zones extend westward to the coast of Guatemala and do not extend into the continent;F_(1-17)and F_(1-20)faults,which control the boundary of the oceanic crust,do not extend southward into the continent.The fault system,which radiates in a"fan-shaped"structure as a whole,unfolds to the northeast.Faults of different nature and sizes are distributed in the Cocos Plate subduction zone,Continental,Gulf of Mexico,Yucatan old landmass and Caribbean Plate in NW,NNW,NS,NE and NEE directions.In the Gulf of Mexico region,the fault system is a comprehensive reflection of former tectonic movements,such as plate movement,drift of old landmasses and expansion of oceanic crusts.The first-class faults control the plate and ocean-continental boundaries.The second-class faults are subordinate to the first-class faults or related to the distribution of different sedimentary layers.

Most root-derived carbon inputs do not contribute to long-term global soil carbon storage

Plant root-derived carbon(C)inputs(I_(root))are the primary source of C in mineral bulk soil.However,a fraction of I_(root)may lose quickly(I_(loss),e.g.,via rhizosphere microbial respiration,leaching and fauna feeding)without contributing to long-term bulk soil C storage,yet this loss has never been quantified,particularly on a global scale.In this study we integrated three observational global data sets including soil radiocarbon content,allocation of photo synthetically assimilated C,and root biomass distribution in 2,034 soil profiles to quantify I_(root)and its contribution to the bulk soil C pool.We show that global average I_(root)in the 0-200 cm soil profile is 3.5 Mg ha^(-1)yr^(-1),~80%of which(i.e.,I_(loss))is lost rather than co ntributing to long-term bulk soil C storage.I_(root)decreases exponentially with soil depth,and the top 20 cm soil contains>60%of total I_(root).Actual C input contributing to long-term bulk soil storage(i.e.,I_(root)-I_(loss))shows a similar depth distribution to I_(root).We also map I_(loss)and its depth distribution across the globe.Our results demonstrate the global significance of direct C losses which limit the contribution of I_(root)to bulk soil C storage;and provide spatially explicit data to facilitate reliable soil C predictions via separating direct C losses from total root-derived C inputs.

An empirical approach to predict regional organic carbon in deep soils

Deep soil organic carbon(SOC)plays an important role in carbon cycling.Precisely predicting deep SOC at the regional scale is crucial for the accurate assessment of carbon sequestration potential in soils but has been challenging for a century.Herein,we developed a depth distribution function-based empirical approach to predict SOC in deep soils at the regional scale.We validated this approach with a dataset from four regions of the world and examined the application of this approach in China’s Loess Plateau.We found that among the reported depth distribution functions describing vertical patterns of SOC,the negative exponential function performed best in fitting SOC along the soil profile in various regions.Moreover,the parameters(i.e.,Ceand k)of the negative exponential function were linearly correlated to surface SOC(0–20 cm)and the changing rates of SOC within the topsoil(0–40 cm).Based on the above relationships,the empirical equations for predicting the negative exponential parameters are established.The validation results from site-specific and regional dataset showed that combining the negative exponential function and such empirical equations can precisely predict SOC concentration in soils down to 500 cm depth.Our study provides a simple,rapid and accurate method for predicting deep soil SOC at the regional scale,which could simplify the assessment of deep soil SOC in various regions.
