The 48-h toxicity of substituted phenols and anilines and their binary mixtures to Scenedesmus obliquus was determined by the algae inhibition test. The median effective inhibition concentration EC50 values for single compounds and EC50mix values for coexistent compounds were obtained. The n-octanol/water partition coefficient （logPmlx） and the frontier orbital energy gap （AEmlx） for mixtures were calculated. The following two-descriptor quantitative structure-activity relationships （QSARs） models were developed to predict single toxicity and joint toxicity respectively： log（1/ECs0） = 0.445logP - 0.801AE ＋ 9.501 （r2 = 0.876） and log （1/EC50mix） = 0.338logPmix- 0.492AEmix ＋ 6.928 （r^2 = 0.831）. The two equations were found to fit well. In addition, the model derived from the structural parameters of single components in binary mixtures log（1/EC50mix） = 0.2221ogP - 0.277AE ＋ 5.250 （r^2 = 0.879） can be used successfully to predict the toxicity of a mixture.展开更多

For the body-wave data, we used 7190 events recorded by 102 stations in the SE margin of the Tibetan plateau. The surface-wave data consist of Rayleigh wave phase velocity dispersion curves obtained from ambient noise cross-correlation analysis recorded by a dense array in the SE margin of the Tibetan plateau. The joint inversion clearly improves the Vs model because it is constrained by both data types. The results show that at around 10 km depth there are two low-velocity anomalies embedded within three high-velocity bodies along the Longmenshan fault system. These high-velocity bodies correspond well with the Precambrian massifs, and the two located to the northeast of 2013 Ms 7.0 Lushan earthquake are associated with high fault slip areas during the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake. The aftershock gap between 2013 Lushan earthquake and 2008 Wenchuan earthquake is associated with low-velocity anomalies, which also acts as a barrier zone for ruptures of two earthquakes. Generally large earthquakes （M 〉 5） in the region occurring from 2008 to 2015 are located around the high-velocity zones, indicating that they may act as asperities for these large earthquakes. Joint inversion results also clearly show that there exist low-velocity or weak zones in the mid-lower crust, which are not evenly distributed beneath the SE margin of Tibetan plateau.展开更多
