The digital tiltmeter installed in the epicentral region in Shifang County recorded the tilt anomalies 15 days before the earthquake with variation amplitude of 3.7 times larger than the annual deviation of 2007. The cross-fault deformation meter installed at Zimakua station on the Xianshuihe-Anninghe fault zone detected displacement anomaly occurring since 2006 with the variation amplitude exceeding the cumulative value of the last ten years. Five borehole strainmeter stations in the Chongqing section of Three Gorges Reservoir area observed unconventional strain changes occurring in the period from May 1 through 12, 2008. Among them, the strainmeter at Wanzhou station recorded the great compression strain rate on the EW component at 14:00 o'clock of May 10, and the anomaly amplitude was so large that the instrument output exceeded its dynamic range, corresponding to a level of -10^4 nanostrains. The geothermometers installed in Xi'an, Chongqing and Xichang recorded the sudden temperature changes from November 2007 to January 2008 with the variation amplitudes several times larger than the ordinary deviation. The above phenomena and the criteria for distinguishing the anomalies from background fluctuations are discussed in this paper.展开更多

The results showed that annual average temperature in Chengxian County increased by 0. 138 ℃/10 a in the past 54 years. There was an obvious sudden change in annual average temperature around 1996. The annual average temperature showed a downward trend before 1996 and an upward trend after 1996. Average temperature in spring,summer,autumn and winter increased by 0. 113,0. 028,0. 157 and 0. 259 ℃/10 a respectively. The fluctuation of average temperature in spring and winter was the largest,followed by summer,while the fluctuation was the smallest in autumn. There were certain differences between various seasons in terms of the years with sudden changes in average temperature,which was not consistent with the years with the sudden changes in annual average temperature. The changing rate of monthly average temperature was the largest in February( up to 0. 412 ℃/10 a),followed by March,April and November,but it was the smallest in May( only 0. 005 ℃/10 a). The maximum of monthly average temperature appeared mostly in the 21 stcentury,while the minimum appeared in the 20 thcentury.展开更多

The results show that the annual, summer, autumn and winter average temperature in Wengyuan all showed a warming trend from 1961 to 2018, among which winter average temperature contributed the most to the increase of annual average temperature, and the increasing trend of average temperature in spring did not pass the significance test. The annual, summer, autumn and winter average temperature in Wengyuan changed significantly in 1994, 1981, 1996 and 1990, respectively. Wavelet analysis shows that the annual average temperature in Wengyuan had periodic oscillations on the time scales of 12-13, 24-25 and 6 years.展开更多

As regard to the suddenness of the change of circulation,the critical role is played by the eddy forcing,展开更多
