The linear continuous density distribution is represented with 3D grid model, which has a resemblance to the velocity model used in some seismic tomography codes. The consensus in representation method of density model and velocity model facilitates the seismic-gravity-integrated interpretation or simultaneous inversion. The numerical test of synthetic data shows that although the analytical gravity formula for linear density distribution is more complex than that for piecewise constant density distribution, it takes less time to calculate the gravity effect with linear density model than that with piecewise constant density model. In addition, this method is used in the integrated interpretation of 3D seismological tomography and gravity data in Dabie Mountain area.展开更多

In addition, it investigated the relationship between the English learners’ use of formulaic language and their spoken English fluency. A CCA(canonical correlation analysis) was conducted to examine the correlations between two sets of fluency variables(dependent variables) and linguistic variables of English formulaic language use(independent variables). The fluency variable set consists of:(1)temporal indices such as SR(speech rate), AR(articulation rate), MLR(mean length of run), and PTR(phonation time ratio);(2) linguistic variables of English formulaic language like F2 R(twoword formulaic sequences/run ratio, B3 R(three-word lexical bundles/run ratio), and B4 R(fourword lexical bundles/run ratio). These are calculated according to the frequency of the English formulaic language in the speech samples of the participants(n = 86) across three academic levels.The results indicate that the learners’ spoken English fluency is highly related to their use of English formulaic language. Its limitations and future research directions are also discussed.展开更多

The modern synthesis was formulated in the early 1940s, well before the concept of coded information was understood. This paper outlines four mathematical challenges to the modern synthesis, which are based on current understanding of the proposed mechanisms of evolutionary change within the constraints of experimental molecular biology.展开更多
