Study on the Propagation and Focusing Mechanism of Long Waves over A Submerged Atoll

An analytical solution for long waves propagating over a submerged atoll is established. The atolls involved in this study are annular coral reefs with large lagoons in the middle, and the expression of the cross section is a trinomial function of the radial distance, i.e., h=ar(2s)-br~s+h_0, where s is the positive rational number. This analytical solution extends the theory by Wang et al.(2018) as s is no longer limited to s=2/m, where m is the positive integer. In addition, by adjusting the terrain parameters properly, the analytic solution can be degenerated to describe the wave propagation over topography with a hump or pit. According to the relationship between wave rays and wave energy, the distribution characteristics and formation mechanism of energy over the topography are expounded. When the lagoon is non-existent, all wave rays converge at the x-axis, which results in an abrupt amplification of the wave amplitude around the convergence point. When a lagoon is mounted on the top of the atoll, the rays are scattered due to the refraction of the lagoon, and only some rays converge at the symmetrical axis and the ridges on both sides,which results in the amplification of wave amplitudes in these areas.

Asymmetric chlorophyll responses enhanced by internal waves near the Dongsha Atoll in the South China Sea

Internal waves(IWs)are small-scale physical processes that occur frequently in stratified marginal seas.IWs are ubiquitous and well documented in the northern South China Sea(n SCS),but few studies have explored the ecosystem responses to the IWs.MODISA chlorophyll-a(Chl-a)data from 2002 to 2014 were used to examine the distribution of Chl a near the Dongsha Atoll(DSA).Composite Chl a from about 40 IWs during spring and summer showed stronger response on the northern side than on the southern side of the DSA.One day after the passage of IWs,composite surface Chl a on the northern side increased from 0.11 mg/m3 to a maximum mean value of 0.18 mg/m3.It decreased to 0.13 mg/m3 after two days and maintained that level for several days after the passage of IWs.The enhanced surface Chl a likely caused subsurface Chl-a maximum and nutrients in the surface layer.Approximately 64%of the increase in surface Chl a was due to the uplift of the subsurface Chl-a maximum one day after the passage of IWs,while nutrient-induced new phytoplankton growth contributed about 18%of the increase a few days later.When the IWs occurred frequently in spring and summer,Chl-a level on the northern side was about 30%higher than that on the southern side.IW dissipation and its impact on nutrients and chlorophyll were stronger on the northern side of the DSA than on the south,which caused a north-south asymmetric distribution of Chl a in the region.

The remote sensing composite information of Nansha reef's closed atoll and the model of its spatial structure evolution——Ⅰ

Based on the feature of the growth and the local limitation of the Nansha reef's closed atoll, also the related remote sensing information of it, the composite analysis is made. The closed atoll conception remote sensing system is constructed through the formation mechanism, development law and the space-time distribution of the closed atoll. Solution of the equation consisting of information function value and isostatic value of closed atoll and half-closed atoll using this system, and topologic analysis on the two kinds of atoll's morphologic growth are the basic foundation for the research of their evolutionary comparative model.

Preliminary studies on methane flux from the ornithogenic soils on Xi-sha atoll, South China Sea

Methane flux from the ornithogenic soils was preliminarily measured by closed chamber method on Xi-sha atoll, South China Sea during March 10 to April 11, 2003 for the first time. The CH4 flux ranged from - 226.7 μg/（m^2 ·h） to 226.3 μg/（m^· h） at the observation sites on Dong Island. High atmospheric CH4 consumption was observed from the ornithogenic soils on sunny days. CH4 uptake rates showed the highest value after the midday and they had a strong positive correlation with soil temperatures. Under the same weather conditions, the CH4 fluxes were also observed from the intact and disturbed soils on Yongxing Island. Results showed that the intact soils with natural vegetation also showed high atmospheric CH4 consumption and the average flux was - 141.8 μg/（ m^2· h）. However, disturbed soils via anthropogenic reclamation showed CH4 emissions and the average flux was 441 .7 μg/（ m^2· h）. Therefore land use changes may have an important effect on the CH4 fluxes from the tropical ornithogenic soils. In addition, different observation sites show a high spatial variation in CH4 fluxes. The wetland in salt marsh showed the CH4 emission on Dong Island, and the dry soil sites all showed high atmospheric CH4 consumption, suggesting that CH4 fluxes were predominantly controlled by soil water regime. The effects of soil chemical properties on CH4 fluxes were also analyzed and discussed in this paper.

Natural and Artificial Connections between Atoll Islets in the Pacific,Their Process and Environmental Impact

Three types of natural connection between atoll islets are described. Causeway, as an artificial way of connecting islets, makes a connection to be completed in a few months. In this case shore adjustment becomes more vigorous than that in natural conditions, resulting in lagoon shore erosion. A causeway without short bridges or culverts should be built close to the lagoon shore to reduce lagoon shore erosion. A causeway-crossing channel assemblage is the worst type among all of the connection engineering constructions because the crossing channel traps sediment and further transports it out of the channel, resulting in long period coastal erosion. Reforming Nippon Causeway in Tarawa Atoll, Kiribati by simple means will stop sand loss, reduce shore erosion and greatly upgrade its stability.

Zooplankton in the Huangyan Atoll,South China Sea:A comparison of community structure between the lagoon and seaward reef slope

Relatively few studies have investigated the community structure of zooplankton in the atolls of the central South China Sea. Zooplankton were sampled at nine stations within the lagoon and four facing the seaward reef-slope in the Huangyan Atoll during May 2015. Lagoonal samples contained 48 zooplankton taxa( H' =2.25±0.95; J =0.70±0.23) with planktonic larvae, copepods, and euphausids contributing 95.63% of total abundance. Seaward oceanic samples contained 114 zooplankton(H ' =5.27±0.27; J =0.90±0.03) with copepods, siphonophores, chaetognaths, appendicularians, and planktonic larvae accounting for 93.66% of abundance. Lagoonal zooplankton abundance was lower than that on the seaward reef-slope. Zooplankton community dif fered significantly between the lagoon and reef-slope groups(R =0.708, P =0.001). The former was dominated by Macruran larvae, Brachyuran larvae, S tylocheiron carinatum, and Acartia spp., while the latter was predominately represented by O ikopleura longicauda, Chelophyes contorta and C opilia mirabilis. Chlorophyll a concentration was significantly higher in the lagoon than the reef slope regions( P <0.01), which may be due to the nutrient input from fishing vessels near the lagoon mouth. Zooplankton abundance was negatively correlated with chlorophyll a concentration(P <0.01). A clear dif ference was observed statistically in the species composition and abundance of zooplankton between the lagoon and the seaward slope at Huangyan Atoll, which suggests that it may be resulted from the influence by natural and anthropogenic interactions.

Preliminary studies on nitrous oxide emissions from the ornithogenic soils on Xi-sha atoll,South China Sea

The preliminary measurements of nitrous oxide fluxes from the ornithogenic soils on tropical Xi-sha atoll were made using a closed chamber technique for the first time. N_2O fluxes from the ornithogenic soils ranged from 1 8 to 40 3 μg/(m^2\5h) on Dong Island and 3 2 to 20 4 μg/(m^2·h) on Yongxing Island and their flux averaged 11 0 μg/(m^2·h) and 8 3 μg/(m^2·h), respectively. N_2O fluxes from two wetland sites in salt marsh of Dong Island were approximately one order of magnitude lower than those from the ornithogenic soils and averaged 2 1 μg/(m^2·h) and 2 4 μg/(m^2·h). The diurnal variation cycle in the fluxes was obtained at the observation sites; the N_2O flux increased with the increase in soil temperature. The sudden increase in soil moisture greatly stimulated N_2O emission from the ornithogenic soils on Dong Island due to the heavy rainfall. The undisturbed soils showed the lower N_2O fluxes and the average was 4 8 μg/(m^2·h) and the soils via the reclamation showed the higher N_2O fluxes and the average was 16 6 μg/(m^2·h) on Yongxing Island, suggesting that the changes of land use have an important effect on N_2O fluxes from the ornithogenic soils. In addition, the N_2O fluxes at the different sites showed high spatial variations. The fluxes were positively correlated with the concentrations of NO^-_3, PO~ 3- _4 and Mn in the soils. The negative correlation between the fluxes and total S concentration in the ornithogenic soils was also found for the first time. Coastal soils or sediments constitute an important source of global atmospheric N_2O and the increases in nitrogen loading from seabird guanos will lead to significant increases in the flux of this atmospherically active gas.

Analysis on coral reefs mapping using SPOT5 data at the Dongsha Atoll

Coral reefs are an sensitive-to-environment complex marine ecosystem. The ecosystem of corals is rich in biodiversity. Remote sensing offers a powerful tool for categorizing coral reefs and is the most cost - effective approach for the large - scale reef survey. The Dongsha Atoll, more than 300 km2 with an average depth of 10 m, is located at the northern continental margin of the South China Sea. It has been abused by destructive fishing during recent decades. Three satellite imageries （Quickbird2, ETM ＋ and SPOTS） are used to evaluate the capabilities of SPOT5 imagery to provide data that are useful for categorizing the current distribution of coral reefs therein. During the data processing, unsupervised classification functions are adopted for ETM ＋ and SPOT5 data, while the supervised classification method is used for Quickbird2. The classes are （or not） merged into coral reef, and then will be operated by vectorization, simplification, and topological analysis. There are 1 331 coral reefs larger than 100 m2 with a detection limit of 3 × 3 pixels at the multi - band data of Quickbird2, which is taken as the comparison baseline. The results extracted from SPOT5 and ETM images are less in number and area than those from the Quickbird2 image, whereas the results from SPOT5 data are better than those of ETM data at the silty lagoon due to its higher resolution. SPOT5 XS band 2 fails to distinguish the deep substrate inside the atoll compared with ETM data because of its poor penetration capability. Only SPOT XS band 1 cannot be used to differentiate coral reef from sand bottom. Merging the SPOT5 multi - bands data with the spatial resolution of SPOT5 pan - data and referring to ETM imagery are expected to provide an optimal satellite - based approach for mapping of coral reefs.

Evolution of the Late Miocene atoll systems offshore Xisha Islands

Modern atolls have been studied systematically and thoroughly in the South China Sea.However,the knowledge of a paleo-atoll and related sedimentary system is very limited.Here we used the newly acquired high resolution 2D seismic data,and discovered three late Miocene atoll systems in the offshore Xisha Islands for the first time.We named them atoll system A,B,C,respectively.These three atoll systems,all developed on the horsts dominated by normal fault,consist mainly of atoll reefs,patch reefs,fore-reef slope deposits,and lagoons.On the basis of the interpreted sequence stratigraphic framework and the identification of fore-reef slope deposits,we suggested only the atoll system A continued to grow until Quaternary,and both of atoll system B and C had been drowned in Pliocene.In late Miocene,the atoll systems in the study area were most developed,either in magnitude or in maturity,which indicated late Miocene was the most flourishing period of reef builders,and this was in accordance with the drilling result of ODP Leg 184 in the South China Sea.Pliocene was an important reef drowning period in the study area,and both atoll systems B and C were drowned and hemipelagic deposits prevailed gradually.Quaternary was another reef drowning period in the study area,two large atoll reefs grown on the atoll system A were finally drowned,and hemipelagic deposits begun to drape and fill the palaeo-atoll systems.The growth and drowning of atolls are controlled mainly by tectonic subsidence in long term,but global eustatic can impact it in short term also.

Optimization of Mobile Network Radio Coverage by Automating Radio Parameter Updates Using Parsing

The present work aims is to propose a solution for automating updates (MAJ) of the radio parameters of the ATOLL database from the OSS NetAct using Parsing. Indeed, this solution will be operated by the RAN (Radio Access Network) service of mobile operators, which ensures the planning and optimization of network coverage. The overall objective of this study is to make synchronous physical data of the sites deployed in the field with the ATOLL database which contains all the data of the coverage of the mobile networks of the operators. We have made an application that automates, updates with the following functionalities: import of radio parameters with the parsing method we have defined, visualization of data and its export to the Template of the ATOLL database. The results of the tests and validations of our application developed for a 4G network have made it possible to have a solution that performs updates with a constraint on the size of data to be imported. Our solution is a reliable resource for updating the databases containing the radio parameters of the network at all mobile operators, subject to a limitation in terms of the volume of data to be imported.

地质记录中的海水白云岩化作用

地质记录中的海水白云岩化作用是广泛存在的。它不仅发育于时代较新的始新世地层内(如太平洋中的 Enewetak 珊瑚岛地区),而且也发育于时代较老的震旦纪灯影期地层内(如云南东北部地区)。在以前的白云岩成因研究过程中,海水白云岩化作用的普遍性和重要性被大大地低估了。自从 Saller(1984)首次报道了正常海水白云岩化的实例以来,海水白云岩化作用的研究已取得了长足的进展,如 Kasner(1984);Land(1985);Smart(1988);Tucker(1990);朱同兴、罗安屏(1993)等。近年来,作者通过对云南东北部地区震旦系灯影组潮缘沉积物的岩石学、沉积相、古地理格局和沉积地球化学标志等综合研究,认为该套巨厚的白云岩层(400—1000m)的成因不是原生的,而是成岩交代形成的,其主要的形成机制之一就是成岩早期的海水白云岩化作用。海水白云岩化作用的发育主要受海平面变化、沉积作用类型以及古气候等条件的限制。造成滇东北地区灯影期海水白云岩化作用的主要机制可能是位于其西北部的青藏大洋内的冷洋流向东部沉积物内泵吸,和位于其东南缘的扬子边缘海的海水向西部沉积物内循环对流(柯特对流)。上述的泵吸作用与对流作用的相互叠加可使巨大体积的海水通过扬子海域,尤其是扬子台地西南边缘(滇东北地区)沉积物,从而使其发生巨大规模的海水白云岩化作用。由海水白云岩化作用形成的白云岩的结构有序度中等,I=0.68—0.82,其碳、氧同位素组成均显示海水碳酸盐来源,δ^(13)=+1.8—+2.6‰(PDB),δ^(18)O=+2.1—+2.7‰(PDB)(冷洋流来源,Enewetak Atoll,始新统)或-5.1—-6.5‰(受地热和大气淡水双重影响而偏负值,滇东北地区;灯影组)。灯影期海水白云岩化作用模式合理地解释了区域巨厚沉积物的块状白云岩化成因、充足的镁离子来源以及多余的钙离子的搬运等白云岩成因研究过程中的关键性问题。
