Remote sensing technology, as the most advanced method for collecting data, along with the common ways often used in the past on research of environmental science, was integrated to study the relationship between environmental pollution of coal mine and spectral characteristics of nearby plants. With compositive index and mean reflectivity at near infrared, a regression equation was established, and a conclusion was made that spectral reflectivity can be used to distinguish regions with different pollution degree. Through testing with real status of the research region, it is verified that this kind of integration and conclusion not only are helpful for human being in controlling the movement law of pollutants and the corresponding change of coal mine environmental quality but also bring a new way for the research of environment problems of coal mine.

Transmission Spectral Characteristics of Photonic Crystals Milled in Annealed Proton-Exchange LiNbO_3 Waveguide

Transmission spectra of triangular lattice photonic crystals milled in the top surface of an annealed proton- exchange waveguide are numerically simulated. The effects of the finite depth, conical shape, trapezoidal shape and hybrid shape of holes are theoretically analyzed. Due to the difficulty of milling high aspect-ratio cylindrical holes in lithium niobate （LiNbO3 ）, a compromised solution is proposed to improve the overlap between shallow holes and the waveguide mode, and useful transmission spectra with strong contrast and sharp band edges are achieved.

Spectral Characteristics of LiSrBO_3:Tb^(3+) Green Phosphor

LiSrBO3：Tb^3＋ green phosphor was synthesized by means of a solid state reaction and its spectral characteristics were studied. The emission spectrum of LiSrBO3：Tb^3＋ consists of four major bands at 486, 544, 595 and 620 nm under the excitation of near ultraviolet irradiation, which are originated from the ^5Da→^7F6, ^5D4→^7F5, ^5D4→^7F4 and ^5D4→^7F3 characteristic transitions of Tb^3＋, respectively. Monitored at 544 nm, the excitation spectrum of the phosphor extends from 220 nm to 390 nm, with the excitation peaks centered at 242, 277, 368 and 381 nm, respectively. The effect of Tb^3＋ concentration on the emission intensity of LiSrBO3：Tb^3＋ was also investigated. The results show that firstly the intensity increases with increasing Tb^3＋ concentration, reaches a maximum value at 3%（molar fraction） Tb^3＋ and then decreases, showing a concentration self-quenching, whose mechanism is proposed as a d-d interaction based on Dexter theory. The emission intensity of LiSrBO3：Tb^3＋ was enhanced by co-doping Li^＋, Na^＋ and K^＋.

Analysis of Spectral Characteristics Based on Optical Remote Sensing and SAR Image Fusion

Because of cloudy and rainy weather in south China, optical remote sens-ing images often can＇t be obtained easily. With the regional trial results in Baoying, Jiangsu province, this paper explored the fusion model and effect of ENVISAT/SAR and HJ-1A satel ite multispectral remote sensing images. Based on the ARSIS strat-egy, using the wavelet transform and the Interaction between the Band Structure Model （IBSM）, the research progressed the ENVISAT satel ite SAR and the HJ-1A satel ite CCD images wavelet decomposition, and low/high frequency coefficient re-construction, and obtained the fusion images through the inverse wavelet transform. In the light of low and high-frequency images have different characteristics in differ-ent areas, different fusion rules which can enhance the integration process of self-adaptive were taken, with comparisons with the PCA transformation, IHS transfor-mation and other traditional methods by subjective and the corresponding quantita-tive evaluation. Furthermore, the research extracted the bands and NDVI values around the fusion with GPS samples, analyzed and explained the fusion effect. The results showed that the spectral distortion of wavelet fusion, IHS transform, PCA transform images was 0.101 6, 0.326 1 and 1.277 2, respectively and entropy was 14.701 5, 11.899 3 and 13.229 3, respectively, the wavelet fusion is the highest. The method of wavelet maintained good spectral capability, and visual effects while improved the spatial resolution, the information interpretation effect was much better than other two methods.

Analysis on Reflectance Spectral Characteristics of Typical Saline Soil in Arid Area

The spectral characteristic of geography objects is not only the important content of remote sensing mechanism, but also the important basis for remote sensing application. The reflectance spectral characteristics reflect the physiochemi-cal properties of saline soil. With 3 kinds of typical saline soils in the arid area as the study objects, the reflectance spectrums of soils with different salt contents and soil moistures were measured, and the spectral characteristics of the spectrums were analyzed. The results showed that under dry condition, the reflectance of the three kinds of saline soils presented obvious high-low patterns, while under damp condition, there was no obvious pattern. With continuum removed ,the three kinds of saline soils showed significant difference in reflectance spectral characteristics. There was significant difference in the absorption depth of the two absorption val eys un-der dry and damp conditions, which could be used to identify these 3 saline soils. The result of this research can be used for the parametric inversion and classifica-tion of saline soil retrieval and classification, as wel as for the remote sensing monitoring on saline soil.

Spectral characteristics of underwater laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy under high-pressure conditions

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy(LIBS) has been proven to be an attractive technique for in situ oceanic applications.However,when applying LIBS into deep-sea,the pressure effect caused by different ocean depths is inescapable and could have great influence on the LIBS signals.In this work,spectral characteristics of underwater LIBS were investigated as a function of pressure in the range of 0.1-45 MPa.A high-pressure chamber built in the laboratory was used to simulate the high-pressure deep-sea environment.Optimal laser energy and detection delay were first determined under different pressure conditions and were shown to be independent of the external pressure.The increase in pressure has a significant impact both on the peak intensity and line broadening of the observed spectra.The peak intensity of Na,Li and K lines increases with the increasing pressure until a maximum intensity is reached at 12.5 MPa.Above this value,the peak intensity decreases gradually up to 45 MPa.For Ca line,the maximum intensity was observed at 30 MPa.The line broadening keeps constant at low pressures from 0.1-10 MPa,while it increases linearly at higher pressures,indicating a higher electron density caused by the compression effect of the high external pressure.We also compared the spectral data obtained from the high-pressure chamber and from the field sea trials,and the good consistency between the laboratory data and sea-trial data suggested the key role of pressure effect on underwater LIBS signals for practical deep-sea applications.

Spectral Characteristics of Wind-Waves in Laboratory

Spectral characteristics of wind-generated waves in labortaory are presented on the basis of a systematic measurement in a large-scale wind-wave channel and compared with those in the field. A marked characteristics of the measured spetra is the existence of secondary spectrum-peak. The dependence of spectral peak-frequency, peak-value and zeroth-order moment on wind speed and fetch are presented and found roughly similar to those in the field represented by the JONSWAP spectrum, regardless of the differences in coefficient. The spectral slope beta at high-frequencies are found somewhat greater than those of field wind-waves in both cases of deep and shallow waters. Except for the low-frequency part, the spectral forms measured in different wind conditions are similar and fit for the JONSWAP spectrum with gamma = 6 and beta = 5.5. Some relevant problems are discussed.

ANALYSIS OF SPECTRAL CHARACTERISTICS AMONG DIFFERENT SENSORS BY USE OF SIMULATED RS IMAGES

This research,by use of RS image_simulating method,simulated apparent reflectance images at sensor level and ground_reflectance images of SPOT_HRV,CBERS_CCD,Landsat_TM and NOAA14_AVHRR’s corresponding bands.These images were used to analyze sensor’s differences caused by spectral sensitivity and atmospheric impacts.The differences were analyzed on Normalized Difference Vegetation Index(NDVI).The results showed that the differences of sensors’ spectral characteristics cause changes of their NDVI and reflectance.When multiple sensors’ data are applied to digital analysis,the error should be taken into account.Atmospheric effect makes NDVI smaller,and atmospheric correction has the tendency of increasing NDVI values.The reflectance and their NDVIs of different sensors can be used to analyze the differences among sensor’s features.The spectral analysis method based on RS simulated images can provide a new way to design the spectral characteristics of new sensors.

Spectral Characteristics Comparison of Two Summer Corn Cultivars under Different Fertilization Treatments

This study is aimed to explore the spectrum reflection characteristics of summer corn leaves in different fertilization conditions.Using hyperspectral remote sensing technology,the experiments were conducted in fields to collect the hyperspectral images of Denghai 605( DH605) and Ludan 981( LD981) in different growth period under five fertilization treatments,and then the reflectance of corn ear leaves was extracted by ENVI software. The five fertilization treatments included the control( CK) with no fertilization,40 kg and 30 kg of controlled-release fertilizer per 666. 67 m2 as base( K40 and K30),50 kg and 40 kg of compound fertilizer per 666. 67 m2 as base with 15 kg urea as seed fertilizer( F50 + N and F40 + N). The reflectance spectrums of the two corn cultivars under different fertilization treatments showed the approximately same changing trend with a reflection peak at green band( 550 nm) and a higher reflection platform at near infrared band( 760 nm-1050 nm). At the heading to filling stage,the reflectance of DH605 and LD981 was the highest under the CK,followed by the K30 and F40 + N respectively. At the filling to dough stage,the reflectance of DH605 and LD981 was the highest under the treatment K30 and F40 + N respectively,which was obviously higher than that of the other treatments. In the conditions of compound fertilizer,except the late filling stage,LD981 had little higher reflectance than DH605 at the other stages. In the conditions of controlled-release fertilizer and at dough to mature stage,LD981 had obviously higher reflectance compared to the other stages,and also higher than that of DH605; there was not obvious difference in reflectance LD981 and DH605 at the other stages.

Hyper-spectral characteristics and classification of farmland soil in northeast of China

The physical and chemical heterogeneities of soils make the soil spectral different and complicated, and it is valuable to increase the accuracy of prediction models for soil organic matter（SOM） based on pre-classification. This experiment was conducted under a controllable environment, and different soil samples from northeast of China were measured using ASD2500 hyperspectral instrument. The results showed that there are different reflectances in different soil types. There are statistically significant correlation between SOM and reflectence at 0.05 and 0.01 levels in 550–850 nm, and all soil types get significant at 0.01 level in 650–750 nm. The results indicated that soil types of the northeast can be divided into three categories： The first category shows relatively flat and low reflectance in the entire band; the second shows that the spectral reflectance curve raises fastest in 460–610 nm band, the sharp increase in the slope, but uneven slope changes; the third category slowly uplifts in the visible band, and its slope in the visible band is obviously higher than the first category. Except for the classification by curve shapes of reflectance, principal component analysis is one more effective method to classify soil types. The first principal component includes 62.13–97.19% of spectral information and it mainly relates to the information in 560–600, 630–690 and 690–760 nm. The second mainly represents spectral information in 1 640–1 740, 2 050–2 120 and 2 200–2 300 nm. The samples with high OM are often in the left, and the others with low OM are in the right of the scatter plot（the first principal component is the horizontal axis and the second is the longitudinal axis）. Soil types in northeast of China can be classified effectively by those two principles; it is also a valuable reference to other soil in other areas.

SPECTRAL CHARACTERISTICS OF ELECTRORETINOGRAM IN X-LINKED DICHROMATS-A PRELIMINARY STUDY

Spectral characteristics of X-linked Dichromats(13 protanopes, 20 deuteranopes) were studied with spectral ERG. The results are as follows: The maximal spectral response of the b-wave in protanopes tended to shift toward the short wavelength side and the sensitivity to long wavelengths decreased obviously.

Like the normals, the maximal response of the b-wave in deuteranopes appea...

Effects of Ce^(3+) on improvement of spectral characteristics and function of chloroplasts damaged by linolenic acid in spinach

Linolenic acid has great effects on the structure and function of chloroplast. We studied the effects of Ce3＋ on the improvement of chloroplast spectral characteristics and oxygen evolution damaged by linolenic acid in spinach. Results showed that Ce3＋ could decrease the light absorption increased by linolenic acid and promote the distribution of excitation energy to PS II and alleviate the decrease of PS Ⅱ fluo- rescence yield caused by linolenic acid. The linolenic acid treatments in various concentrations reduced the oxygen-evolving rate of chloroplasts, but the rate was accelerated since adding Ce3＋.

Evolution of soil DOM during thermal remediation below 100℃:concentration,spectral characteristics and complexation ability

The impact of thermal remediation on soil function has drawn increasing attention.So far,as the most active fraction of soil organic matter,the evolution of dissolved organic matter(DOM)during the thermal remediation lacks in-depth investigation,especially for the temperatures value below 100℃.In this study,a series of soil thermal treatment experiments was conducted at 30,60,and 90℃ during a 90-d period,where soil DOM concentration increased with heating temperature and duration.The molecular weight,functional groups content and aromaticity of DOM all decreased during the thermal treatment.The excitation-emission matrices(EEM)results suggested that humic acid-like substances transformed into fulvic acid-like substances(FIII/FV increased from 0.27 to 0.44)during the heating process,and five DOM components were further identified by EEM-PARAFAC.The change of DOM structures and components indicated the decline of DOM stability and hydrophilicity,and can potentially change the bioavailability and mobility.Elevated temperature also resulted in the decline of DOM complexation ability,which may be caused by the loss of binding sites due to the decrease of polar function groups,aromatic structures and hydrophilic components.This study provides valuable information about the evolution of DOM during thermal remediation,which would potentially change the fate of metal ions and the effectiveness of the post-treatment technologies in the treated region.

Experimental investigation of spectral evolution in flash radiation by hypervelocity impact on aluminum plates

In this study,a series of hypervelocity impact tests were carried out based on a two-stage light gas gun,and the sequence spectrum and radiation evolution data of the impact products under different impact conditions were obtained.The diameter of the projectile is 3-5 mm,the impact velocity is 3.13-6.58 km/s,and the chamber pressure is 0.56-990 Pa.The spectrum of ejected debris cloud in the 250-310 nm band were obtained using a transient spectral measurement system and a multi-channel radiometer measurement system.The test results reveal that the flash radiation intensity increases as a power function with the kinetic energy of the impact.Furthermore,the peak value of the line spectrum decreases as the chamber vacuum degree increases,while the radiation width gradually expands.The line spectrum in the spectral characterization curve corresponds to the ejected debris clouds splitting phase,which does not produce significant line spectrum during material fragmentation and is dominated by the continuum spectrum produced by blackbody radiation.There will appear one or three characteristic peaks in the flash radiation time curve,the first and second peaks correspond to the penetration phase and the third peak corresponds to the expansion phase of the ejected debris clouds on the time scale,the first and second peaks are more sensitive to the chamber vacuum degree,and when the pressure is higher than 99 Pa,the first and second characteristic peaks will disappear.The radiant heat attenuation of the flash under different impact conditions is significantly different,the attenuation exponent has a power function relationship with the impact velocity and the chamber vacuum degree,while the attenuation exponent has a linear relationship with the diameter of the projectile,the specific expression of the attenuation exponent is obtained by fitting.The findings from this research can serve as a valuable reference for remote diagnostic technologies based on flash radiation characteristics.

Characteristics of Lead Accumulation in Rice Aboveground Organs under Lead Pollution and Construction of Hyperspectral Identification Models

[Objective] This study aimed to investigate the characteristics of lead accu- mulation in rice aboveground organs under lead pollution and construct hyperspectral identification models. [Method] Pot experiments were conducted to investigate the characteristics of lead accumulation in rice aboveground organs and the quantitative relationship between canopy spectral characteristics and plumbum （Pb） concentrations in various rice organs under different lead levels with experimental materials Nanjing 44 and Liangyoupeijiu. [Result] Pb contents in whole plants, stems, leaves and spikes of Nanjing 44 and Liangyoupeijiu were increasing with the raised Pb levels, Pb content was the highest in stems. Significant differences were observed in the wavelength band of red light in canopy reflectance spectra curves under various Pb stress levels. With the increasing of Pb stress level, the strength of spectral reflectance reduced, and the normalized value of reflectance after removing envelopes curved increased. Several types of relationship models between NVDI（x） and Pb con- tent in rice organs were constructed. By comparing the prediction significance of these models, optimal prediction models were constructed for Pb stress remote- sensing monitoring in various organs of Nanjing 44 and Liangyoupeijiu, respectively. Specifically, Pb contents in various organs of Nanjing 44 were defined as： Ywhole-plant= 2 270.4x^2-2 292.8x＋577.35, ystem=4 260.9x^2-4 294x＋1 077.8, Yleat=2 780.8x^2-2 777.9x＋ 690.71, yspike=309.31X^2-306.07X＋75.369; while for Liangyoupeijiu, ywhole-plant=524 269e^-25.557x, ystem=1E＋07e^-31.65x, yleaf=2E＋07e^-34.056x, yspike=14 320e^-21.756x.[Conclusion] The field hyperspectral remote-sensing responded fairly well to Pb stress of rice plants and the stress intensity. Therefore, fast and undamaging probe of Pb pollution of rice could be achieved by the difference analysis of rice canopy spectra.

Island instantaneous coastline extraction based on the characteristics of regional statistics of multispectral remote sensing image

This study adopted IKONOS remote sensing images and selected spectral characteristic areas, through regional pixel statistics and calculating weight coefficients of each band, processed the images with the spectral normalized method, which made the features of islands, land and water features more obviously in the images. On this basis, the OTUS was used to determine the optimal segmentation threshold, and the normalization image binarization was made, thus the island coastline was extracted. This method used the characteristic curve method to separate the land and water, obtained the binarization images and maintained the original edge effectively. The coastline that was extracted by Binary Morphology was continuous, reliable and high signal-to-noise ratio. The results showed that this method could extract the coastline fast, simply and effectively, which had the practical value.

Eu3＋-WO3 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by the modified method of Pechini. The prepared samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction （XRD）, transmission electron microscopy （TEM）, high resolution transmission electron microscopy （HRTEM）, and UV-vis spectroscopy. Results showed that the Eu3＋-WO3 nanoparticles, which had an average external diameter of 10–25 nm, were composed of the different shapes of puncheon and catenary after being pretreated by pH, pressure vessal, and surfactant. Moreover, structural transformation matrix contained different crystals of anorthic and orthorhombic structure. The photocatalytic activities of the nanoparticles were evaluated by photocatalytic decomposition of rhodamine B. Eu3＋-WO3 nanoparticles were more efficient than WO3 and TiO2 on sunlight use ratio. Photocatalysis experiments indicated that the Eu3＋-WO3 nanoparticles exhibited the highest photocatalytic activity.

Spectral Reflectance Characteristics of Different Snow and Snow-Covered Land Surface Objects and Mixed Spectrum Fitting

The field spectroradiometer was used to measure spectra of different snow and snow-covered land surface objects in Beijing area.The result showed that for a pure snow spectrum,the snow reflectance peaks appeared from visible to 800 nm band locations;there was an obvious absorption valley of snow spectrum near 1 030 nm wavelength.Compared with fresh snow,the reflection peaks of the old snow and melting snow showed different degrees of decline in the ranges of 300～1 300,1 700～1 800 and 2 200～2 300 nm,the lowest was from the compacted snow and frozen ice.For the vegetation and snow mixed spectral characteristics,it was indicated that the spectral reflectance increased for the snow-covered land types(including pine leaf with snow and pine leaf on snow background), due to the influence of snow background in the range of 350～1 300 nm.However, the spectrum reflectance of mixed pixel remained a vegetation spectral characteristic.In the end,based on the spectrum analysis of snow,vegetation,and mixed snow/vegetation pixels,the mixed spectral fitting equations were established,and the results showed that there was good correlation between spectral curves by simulation fitting and observed ones(correlation coefficient R2=0.950 9).
