As one of the major methods for water disaster control, hydrogeochemistry attracts a series of studies related to water source discrimination. In this paper, a simple method for constructing the water source discrimination model based on major ions and multivariate statistical analysis was reported using the following procedures: (1) collection of data and interpretation, (2) analysis of controlling factors based on the chemical composition of groundwater, (3) "pure" sample chosen, and (4) discrimination model establishment. After the processes, two functions and a diagram were established for three aquifers (the Quaternary, Coal bearing, and Taiyuan Fm.) from the Renlou Coal Mine in northern Anhui Province, China. The method can be applied in almost all coal mines and can be used for evaluating the contribution ratios if the water is collected from a mixing source.展开更多
The purpose of the study was to use the Problem-Centered Double-Cycles Instructional Model (PCDC-IM) (1995, Chang) to help the teacher (Lin) implement model-eliciting activity (MEA) in her mathematics classes....The purpose of the study was to use the Problem-Centered Double-Cycles Instructional Model (PCDC-IM) (1995, Chang) to help the teacher (Lin) implement model-eliciting activity (MEA) in her mathematics classes. In this study, there were 31 students divided in 10 groups and engaged in the MEA "Who saved the oriental cherry trees". Data collections included the learning sheets, journals and debriefing forms of students, teaching and reflection journals, observation reports, and field notes of teachers, reflection journals and interview reports of researchers, video tapes and records of the classes and meetings. There were four parts of the teaching cycle in PCDC-IM, namely task, guidance, environment and analysis. We summarized developing and implementing the MEA in "Task" aspect, 5 principles and 5 kinds of teachers' roles in "Guidance" aspect, 2 elements and 5 features in "Environment" aspect and data in "Analysis" aspect. The findings showed that PCDC-IM was helpful for mathematics teachers who want to change their instruction from lecture into modeling teaching.展开更多
