[Method] The natural gravel, which was from Nanshantai Region in Zhongwei City, Ningxia, was acted as test materials to study the effects of different thicknesses of gravel covering on daily evaporation using evaporator overall weighing method. [Result] The daily evaporation capacity order of the gravel covering thickness was as follows： CK〉HI（5 cm）〉 H2（8 cm）〉 H3（10 cm）〉 H4（15 cm）. Meanwhile, with the increase of test days, the difference of cumulative evaporation capacity between H3 （10 cm） and H4 （15 cm） decreased gradually. Soil evaporation capacity reduced at the pow- er function with the increase of gravel covering thickness, and the decision coeffi- cient of the fitted curve reached to 0.925 5. [Conclusion] With the increase of gravel covering thickness, evaporation capacity of soil reduced gradually, and the soil water content increased gradually. Gravel covering could effectively reduce the evapora- tion. The thicker of covering, the more obvious inhibition effect on evaporation. The thickness of covering should increase moderately to prevent moisture loss from e- vaporation. Gravel inhibition effect on the evaporation wasn＇t obvious when the gravel covering thickness reached more than 10 cm. 10 cm gravel covering was the most appropriate thickness for local natural condition. The soil evaporation capacity along with the change of gravel covering could be simulated with power function e- quation Y=at^b.展开更多

The paper chooses an industrial city-Shuicheng in Guizhou Province-as a study area because the karst water quality around the city is deteriorating with land use and land cover change. The natural susceptibility of karst water system is an important factor leading to karst water pollution. But land use and land cover change is also a main factor according to the chemical analysis of karst water quality and land use change. So it is a good way to protect karst water through rational planning and managing of land use and land cover.展开更多

This type of microporous solids such as natural （CLINA） and dealuminated clinoptilolite zeolites （CLIDA1-CLIDA5） were conditioned by means of acid treatment of the natural zeolitic precursor （CLINA） with HCI at different concentration. Adsorption of selected gases （N2 and 02） on clinoptilolite zeolites were studied in the temperature range from 398 K to 498 K. The Langmuir adsorption model was found to approximately fit the gases adsorption data, within the selected temperature range. The uptake amount of these gases by the diverse adsorbents was temperature dependent. Additionally, the energies of interaction between of these gases with clinoptilolite microporous walls were realized from the evaluation of the isosteric heats of adsorption （qst）. These isosteric heats were found to obey in the following decreasing order： qst （N2）： CLIDA1 〉 CLIDA3 〉 CLIDA2 〉 CLIDA4 〉 CLIDA5 〉 CLINA; while qst （02）： CLIDA3 〉 CLIDA2 〉 CL1DA1 〉 CLIDA5 〉 CLIDA4 〉 CLINA.展开更多

Carbazoles and benzocarbazoles are nitrogen compounds in petroleum and can be employed to explicitly explain migration direction and distance of leaking petro- leum. The hypothesis of this study is that the mechanism of the reaction involving the attraction of carbazoles to clay minerals on the matrix of the walls along their migration pathways determines the isomer that is preferentially attached to the mineral matrix. The objectives of this study are （a） to produce a profile for carbazoles and benzocar- bazoles ratios in the cap rock overlying the reservoir, （b） to compare carbazole and benzocarbazole ratios to 20S/ （20S ＋ 20R） （^（^C29 Sterane maturity ratios （c） to infer migration direction from the carbazoles and benzocar- bazoles ratio. Samples used were side wall cores and drill cuttings of water-based mud drilling. The EOM （ex- tractable organic matter） from various formations overlying the reservoir was obtained using Soxtherm Automatic Equipment. The TPH （total petroleum hydrocarbon） was obtained from the EOM by using a precleaned isolute C18 500 mg / 3 mL column, eluted with hexane, while the polars were eluted with dichloromethane. Fractionation into satu- rates and aromatics was done using a silver nitrate-silica gel column. The profiles of 1,8/1,3 and 1,8/2,4 dimethyl car- bazoles and the benzocarbazoles ratios show a vertical gra- dient of decreasing ratio with increasing vertical distance from the reservoir. This corroborates the %VRo equivalent of 20S/（20S ＋ 20R） αααC29 Sterane and the carbazole ratios infer vertical migration of leaked petroleum.展开更多

The monthly recession coefficient(RC) in winter reflects groundwater conditions.The RC has increased obviously for the Shule and Heihe rivers with 73% and 58% permafrost coverage,respectively,but did not increase for the Shiyang River,and decreased insignificantly for the upper Yellow River,which had less permafrost coverage.There is a distinct positive relationship between RC and annual negative degree-day temperature(NDDT) at the meteorological stations in the basins with high permafrost coverage.These results imply that permafrost degradation due to climate warming affects hydrological processes in winter.The effect is obvious in the basins with high permafrost coverage but negligible in those with low permafrost coverage. Permafrost degradation increases infiltration,enlarges the groundwater reservoir,and leads to slow discharge recession.The result means that hydrological processes are affected strongly by permafrost degradation in river basins with high permafrost coverage,but less in river basins with less permafrost coverage.展开更多

Here we have demonstrated that epitaxial graphene overlayers can be obtained by annealing a nickel carbide covered Ni（111） surface using in situ surface imaging techniques. Epitaxial graphene islands nucleate and grow via segregation of dissolved carbon atoms to the top surface at about 400 ℃. This is in contrast to a mixture of epitaxial and non-epi- taxial graphene domains grown directly on Ni（111） at 540 ℃. The different growth behaviors are related to the nucleation dynamics which is controlled by local carbon densities in the near surface region.展开更多

Treating the rock overburden depth, rock strength, and rock pillar width as variables, a series of 3D numerical analysis was carried out to examine the effect of each variable on the safety of the tunnel, in particular the rock pillar. A stress strength ratio (SSR) was used to define whether the safety of the rock pillar was exceeded. A simple design chart for the case of three-parallel-hole tunnel, which took into account the influence of overburden depth, rock pillar width, and rock strength, was also proposed for used in the preliminary design stage.展开更多
