In this study, com- bined isotope techniques, root length density and root cell activity analysis were used to investigate the root water uptake mechanisms of winter wheat (Triticum aesfivum L.) under different irrigation depths in the North China Plain. Both direct inference approach and multisource linear mixing model were applied to estimate the distribution of water uptake with depth in six growing stages. Results showed that winter wheat under land surface irrigation treatment (Ts) mainly absorbed water from 10-20 cm soil layers in the wintering and green stages (66.9 and 72.0%, respectively); 0-20 cm (57.0%) in the jointing stage; 0-40 (15.3%) and 80-180 cm (58.1%) in the heading stage; 60-80 (13.2%) and 180-220 cm (35.5%) in the filling stage; and 0-40 (46.8%) and 80-100 cm (31.0%) in the ripening stage. Winter wheat under whole soil layers irrigation treatment (Tw) absorbed more water from deep soil layer than Ts in heading, filling and ripening stages. Moreover, root cell activity and root length density of winter wheat under TW were significantly greater than that of Ts in the three stages. We concluded that distribution of water uptake with depth was affected by the availability of water sources, the root length density and root cell activity. Implementation of the whole soil layers irrigation method can affect root system distribution and thereby increase water use from deeper soil and enhance water use efficiency.展开更多

This study used data from multiple sources, including MOD13 A3, TRMM 3 B43, and SRTMDEM, for Yunnan Province, China from 2009 to 2018 to calculate the tropical rainfall condition index(TRCI), vegetation condition index(VCI), temperature condition index(TCI), and elevation factors. Principal component analysis(PCA) and analytic hierarchy process(AHP) were used to construct comprehensive drought monitoring models for Yunnan Province. The reliability of the models was verified, following which the drought situation in Yunnan Province for the past ten years was analysed. The results showed that:(1) The comprehensive drought index(CDI) had a high correlation with the standardized precipitation index, standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index, temperature vegetation dryness index, and CLDAS(China Meteorological Administration land data assimilation system), indicating that the CDI was a strong indicator of drought through meteorological, remote sensing and soil moisture monitoring.(2) The droughts from 2009 to 2018 showed generally consistent spatiotemporal changes. Droughts occurred in most parts of the province, with an average drought frequency of 29% and four droughtprone centres.(3) Monthly drought coverage during 2009 to 2014 exceeded that over 2015 to 2018. January had the largest average drought coverage over the study period(61.92%). Droughts at most stations during the remaining months except for October exhibited a weakening trend(slope > 0). The CDI provides a novel approach for drought monitoring in areas with complex terrain such as Yunnan Province.展开更多

Multisource sludge can be defined as sludge from different sources. Based on the sludge properties of five typical cities in the Yangtze River basin, including Jiujiang, Wuhu, Lu’an, Zhenjiang and Wuhan, this study investigated and summarized the characteristic variations and distribution differences of multiple indicators and substances from municipal sludge, dredged sludge, and river and lake sediments. The results demonstrated pH of multisource sludge was relatively stable in the neutral range. Organic matter and water content among municipal sludge were high and varied considerably between different wastewater treatment plants. Dredged sludge had an obviously higher sand content and wider particle distribution, which could be considered for graded utilization depending on its size. The nutrients composition of river and lake sediments was usually stable and special, with lower nitrogen and phosphorus content but higher potassium levels. The sources of heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants in multisource sludge were correlated, generally much higher among municipal sludge than dredged sludge and river and lake sediments, which were the most important limitation for final land utilization. Despite various properties of multisource sludge, the final fate and destination have some overall similarities, which need to be supplemented and improved by standards and laws. The study provided a preliminary analysis of suitable technical routes for municipal sludge, dredged sludge, river and lake sediments based on their different characteristics respectively, which was of great significance for multisource sludge co-treatment and disposal in the future of China.展开更多

We compare the multipath loss difference between multisource and unisource channel. We also analyze the root mean square (RMS) delay spread and average time delay of three typical wavelengths as VLC holds a wide spectrum from 380 nm to 780 nm, the spectral reflectance of walls is wavelength-dependent. And the result shows that the blue light emitting diode (LED) owns a larger communication bandwidth than other wavelengths in the room with plastic walls. Also, the path loss of three different wavelengths is compared.展开更多

Our calculated results show that the contribution of hard emission can be neglected in the study of transverse momentum spectra of charged pions and kaons produced in Cu-Cu collisions at √SNN=22.5 GeV. And if we consider the contribution of hard emission, the transverse momentum spectra of p and ^-p produced in Cu-Cu collisions at √SNN=22.5 GeV, K^0 produced in Pb-Pb collisions at 158 A GeV, J/φ particles produced in p-Pb collisions at 400 GeV and π^+, K^+, p produced in proton-proton collisions at √s=200 GeV, can be described by the model, especially in the tail part of spectra.展开更多

Using Shanghai, China,as the study area, a simplified 2D hydrodynamic model is applied to simulations. Combined with actual flood incidents reported by the public and soil moisture data, we perform multiscale verifications and determine the applicability of three precipitation datasets in the modeling. The results are as follows:(1) At the city scale, although QPE have higher spatial resolution, these estimates are lower than station observations. Radar fusion data have both high accuracy and high spatial resolution. For flood depths above 5 cm, the radar fusion precipitation scenario can improve the matching probability by 6%.(2) At the neighborhood scale, the radar fusion precipitation scenario can effectively mitigate the problems of an uneven spatial distribution of stations and a weak QPE to accurately capture pluvial details.(3)One fixed-point assessment shows that different precipitation data have little influence on the temporal characteristics of the modeling result-all three types of data can accurately reflect flood occurrence times. This work can provide a scientific basis for constructing effective urban pluvial flood monitoring systems.展开更多

文摘Development of drought monitoring techniques is important for understanding and mitigating droughts and for rational agricultural management. This study used data from multiple sources, including MOD13 A3, TRMM 3 B43, and SRTMDEM, for Yunnan Province, China from 2009 to 2018 to calculate the tropical rainfall condition index(TRCI), vegetation condition index(VCI), temperature condition index(TCI), and elevation factors. Principal component analysis(PCA) and analytic hierarchy process(AHP) were used to construct comprehensive drought monitoring models for Yunnan Province. The reliability of the models was verified, following which the drought situation in Yunnan Province for the past ten years was analysed. The results showed that:(1) The comprehensive drought index(CDI) had a high correlation with the standardized precipitation index, standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index, temperature vegetation dryness index, and CLDAS(China Meteorological Administration land data assimilation system), indicating that the CDI was a strong indicator of drought through meteorological, remote sensing and soil moisture monitoring.(2) The droughts from 2009 to 2018 showed generally consistent spatiotemporal changes. Droughts occurred in most parts of the province, with an average drought frequency of 29% and four droughtprone centres.(3) Monthly drought coverage during 2009 to 2014 exceeded that over 2015 to 2018. January had the largest average drought coverage over the study period(61.92%). Droughts at most stations during the remaining months except for October exhibited a weakening trend(slope > 0). The CDI provides a novel approach for drought monitoring in areas with complex terrain such as Yunnan Province.

文摘To analyze the effects of gas cannons on clouds and precipitation,multisource observational data,including those from National Centers for Environmental Prediction(NCEP)reanalysis,Hangzhou and Huzhou new-generation weather radars,laser disdrometer,ground-based automatic weather station,wind profiler radar,and Lin'an C-band dualpolarization radar,were adopted in this study.Based on the variational dual-Doppler wind retrieval method and the polarimetric variables obtained by the dual-polarization radar,we analyzed the microphysical processes and the variations in the macro-and microphysical quantities in clouds from the perspective of the synoptic background before precipitation enhancement,the polarization echo characteristics before,during and after enhancement,and the evolution of the fine three-dimensional kinematic structure and the microphysical structure.The results show that the precipitation enhancement operation promoted the development of radar echoes and prolonged their duration,and both the horizontal and vertical wind speeds increased.The dual-polarization radar echo showed that the diameter of the precipitation particles increased,and the concentration of raindrops increased after precipitation enhancement.The raindrops were lifted to a height corresponding to 0 to-20℃due to vertical updrafts.Based on the disdrometer data during precipitation enhancement,the concentration of small raindrops(lgN_(w))showed a significant increase,and the mass-weighted diameter D_(m)value decreased,indicating that the precipitation enhancement operation played a certain“lubricating”effect.After the precipitation enhancement,the concentration of raindrops did not change much compared with that during the enhancement process,while the Dm increased,corresponding to an increase in rain intensity.The results suggest the positive effect of gas cannons on precipitation enhancement.

文摘The existing multi-source contour matching studies have focused on the matching methods with consideration of topological relations and similarity measurement based on spatial Euclidean distance,while it is lack of taking the contour geometric features into account,which may lead to mismatching in map boundaries and areas with intensive contours or extreme terrain changes.In light of this,it is put forward that a matching strategy from coarse to precious based on the contour geometric features.The proposed matching strategy can be described as follows.Firstly,the point sequence is converted to feature sequence according to a feature descriptive function based on curvature and angle of normal vector.Then the level of similarity among multi-source contours is calculated by using the longest common subsequence solution.Accordingly,the identical contours could be matched based on the above calculated results.In the experiment for the proposed method,the reliability and efficiency of the matching method are verified using simulative datasets and real datasets respectively.It has been proved that the proposed contour matching strategy has a high matching precision and good applicability.

文摘Current exploration needs are satisfied by multisource technology,which offers low cost,high efficiency,and high precision.The delay time,which determines the separation effects of the multisource blended data,is one of the most crucial parameters in the acquisition and separation of multisource data.This study uses the deblending method of multisource data based on a periodically varying cosine code and analyses the effects of the two parameters,namely,the period amplitude and period length,used in this method on the separation of the multisource blended data.Meanwhile,the obtained coherence data is used to prove the correlation between the separation of multisource data and the two parameters.Examples of synthetic and field data are adopted to demonstrate that from a qualitative perspective,increasing the amplitude of the periodic code improves the separation effect within a reasonable delay time range.When the period length varies in a suitable range,the secondary noise becomes relatively incoherent,resulting in the separation result with a higher signal-to-noise ratio(SNR).From a quantitative perspective,the significant values(Sig.)of the period amplitude and length on the SNRs are less than 0.05,verifying the correlation between the separation of multisource data and the two parameters.

文摘Effective fault diagnosis has a crucial impact on the safety and cost of complex manufacturing systems.However,the complex structure of the collected multisource data and scarcity of fault samples make it difficult to accurately identify multiple fault conditions.To address this challenge,this paper proposes a novel deep-learning model for multisource data augmentation and small sample fault diagnosis.The raw multisource data are first converted into two-dimensional images using the Gramian Angular Field,and a generator is built to transform random noise into images through transposed convolution operations.Then,two discriminators are constructed to evaluate the authenticity of input images and the fault diagnosis ability.The Vision Transformer network is built to diagnose faults and obtain the classification error for the discriminator.Furthermore,a global optimization strategy is designed to upgrade parameters in the model.The discriminators and generator compete with each other until Nash equilibrium is achieved.A real-world multistep forging machine is adopted to compare and validate the performance of different methods.The experimental results indicate that the proposed method has multisource data augmentation and minority sample fault diagnosis capabilities.Compared with other state-of-the-art models,the proposed approach has better fault diagnosis accuracy in various scenarios.
文摘Urban geography has always been concerned about the influence of human settlements on urban vitality,but few studies reveal the influence of human settlements on urban vitality at a micro-scale.This paper analyzes the spatial distribution characteristics of human settlements’quality and urban vitality at the micro-scale using Geodetectors and geographic weighted regression to analyze the relationship between human settlements and urban vitality.The results are shown as follows:there is still a significant development space for human settlements quality in Shahekou District,with obvious spatial dependence characteristics and significant gaps between various systems;the urban vitality of Shahekou District has obvious timeliness,and the urban vitality undergoes significant changes over time,which is related to the human settlements quality.The spatial distribution presents a single core spatial distribution structure with strong relative stability.The spatial distribution of cold and hot spots shows a pattern of“high in the north and low in the south,high in the east and low in the west”,with an increasing trend from southwest to northeast;the reachability of public transport has a significant impact on urban vitality.Its synergy with other variables is the leading force forming the spatial distribution of urban vitality.The environmental system,support system and social system are the significant factors affecting the urban vitality of Shahekou District.

文摘Sludge is the by-product of wastewater treatment process. Multisource sludge can be defined as sludge from different sources. Based on the sludge properties of five typical cities in the Yangtze River basin, including Jiujiang, Wuhu, Lu’an, Zhenjiang and Wuhan, this study investigated and summarized the characteristic variations and distribution differences of multiple indicators and substances from municipal sludge, dredged sludge, and river and lake sediments. The results demonstrated pH of multisource sludge was relatively stable in the neutral range. Organic matter and water content among municipal sludge were high and varied considerably between different wastewater treatment plants. Dredged sludge had an obviously higher sand content and wider particle distribution, which could be considered for graded utilization depending on its size. The nutrients composition of river and lake sediments was usually stable and special, with lower nitrogen and phosphorus content but higher potassium levels. The sources of heavy metals and persistent organic pollutants in multisource sludge were correlated, generally much higher among municipal sludge than dredged sludge and river and lake sediments, which were the most important limitation for final land utilization. Despite various properties of multisource sludge, the final fate and destination have some overall similarities, which need to be supplemented and improved by standards and laws. The study provided a preliminary analysis of suitable technical routes for municipal sludge, dredged sludge, river and lake sediments based on their different characteristics respectively, which was of great significance for multisource sludge co-treatment and disposal in the future of China.
文摘In this paper, we present a wavelength depended ray-tracing algorithm to model the indoor multisource channel impulse response for visible light communication (VLC). We compare the multipath loss difference between multisource and unisource channel. We also analyze the root mean square (RMS) delay spread and average time delay of three typical wavelengths as VLC holds a wide spectrum from 380 nm to 780 nm, the spectral reflectance of walls is wavelength-dependent. And the result shows that the blue light emitting diode (LED) owns a larger communication bandwidth than other wavelengths in the room with plastic walls. Also, the path loss of three different wavelengths is compared.

文摘Lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)based on olivine LiFePO_(4)(LFP)offer long cycle/calendar life and good safety,making them one of the dominant batteries in energy storage stations and electric vehicles,especially in China.Yet scientists have a weak understanding of LFP cathode degradation,which restricts the further development of LFP materials and batteries.Here,we critically review reports on LFP cathode degradation with respect to different electric parameters(including C-rates,storage,and long cycling),mechanical stresses,and thermal fields.The detailed chemical and physical aspects of degradation mechanisms at various scales(i.e.,from atomic to devices)and their causes are comprehensively summarized,and discussions of related concerns are provided in each section.We close with a systematic overview of LFP degradation research and mediation strategies,suggesting future directions for developing robust,safe LFP batteries with long cycle life.

文摘The transverse momentum distributions of final-state particles produced in nucleus-nucleus (AA), proton-nucleus (pA), and proton-proton (pp) collisions at high energies are investigated using a multisource ideal gas model. Our calculated results show that the contribution of hard emission can be neglected in the study of transverse momentum spectra of charged pions and kaons produced in Cu-Cu collisions at √SNN=22.5 GeV. And if we consider the contribution of hard emission, the transverse momentum spectra of p and ^-p produced in Cu-Cu collisions at √SNN=22.5 GeV, K^0 produced in Pb-Pb collisions at 158 A GeV, J/φ particles produced in p-Pb collisions at 400 GeV and π^+, K^+, p produced in proton-proton collisions at √s=200 GeV, can be described by the model, especially in the tail part of spectra.

文摘Despite its essential importance to various spatial agriculture and environmental applications,the information on actual cropland area and its geographical distribution remain highly uncertain over Africa among remote-sensing products.Each of the African regions has its unique physical and environmental limiting factors to accurate cropland mapping,which leads to high spatial discre-pancies among remote sensing cropland products.Since no dataset could cope with all limitations,multiple datasets initially derived from various remote sensing sensors and classification techniques must be integrated into a more accurate cropland product than individual layers.Here,in the current study,four cropland products,produced initially from multiple sensors(e.g.Landsat-8 OLI,Sentinel-2 MSI,and PROBA-V)to cover the period(2015-2017),were integrated based on their cropland mapping accuracy to build a more accurate cropland layer.The four cropland layers’accuracy was assessed at Agro-ecological zones units via an inten-sive reference dataset(17,592 samples).The most accurate crop-land layer was then identified for each zone to construct the final cropland mask at 30 m resolution for the nominal year of 2016 over Africa.As a result,the new layer was produced in higher cropland mapping accuracy(overall accuracy=91.64%and cropland’s F-score=0.75).The layer mapped the African cropland area as 282 Mha(9.38%of the Continent area).Compared to earlier crop-land synergy layers,the constructed cropland mask showed a considerable improvement in its spatial resolution(30 m instead of 250 m),mapping quality,and closeness to official statistics(R^(2)=0.853 and RMSE=2.85 Mha).The final layer can be down-loaded as described under the“Data Availability Statement”section.

文摘Disaster management and in particular disaster response phase are highly timesensitive and dynamic processes,demanding that real-time information reaches disaster responders prior making critical decisions.During the last decade,disaster management has been widely enabled through utilizing spatial data sourcing and related technologies in the whole process of collection,access,and usage of disaster information.Currently,there are unique challenges that cannot be met without incorporating in situ sensing as an emerging technology for sourcing and managing disaster information.These include(1)high temporal and spatial resolution of information,(2)broad range of disaster data,and(3)automated operations.Incorporating in situ sensing into the disaster management process can potentially address such challenges by providing data that support all of these requirements.Following an examination of current concepts and methods for integrating multisourced sensors,a framework of the requirements for integrating in situ sensors for disaster management,is suggested.Based on this framework and its components,an evaluation of the methods is developed and applied.The results highlight that information integration of multisourced sensors is a major challenge and has not yet adequately addressed for sensor data enablement of disaster management.

文摘Based on station precipitation observations,radar quantitative precipitation estimates(QPE), and radar fusion data during Typhoon Fitow(2013), the influence of multisource precipitation data on multiscale urban typhoon pluvial flood modeling is studied. Using Shanghai, China,as the study area, a simplified 2D hydrodynamic model is applied to simulations. Combined with actual flood incidents reported by the public and soil moisture data, we perform multiscale verifications and determine the applicability of three precipitation datasets in the modeling. The results are as follows:(1) At the city scale, although QPE have higher spatial resolution, these estimates are lower than station observations. Radar fusion data have both high accuracy and high spatial resolution. For flood depths above 5 cm, the radar fusion precipitation scenario can improve the matching probability by 6%.(2) At the neighborhood scale, the radar fusion precipitation scenario can effectively mitigate the problems of an uneven spatial distribution of stations and a weak QPE to accurately capture pluvial details.(3)One fixed-point assessment shows that different precipitation data have little influence on the temporal characteristics of the modeling result-all three types of data can accurately reflect flood occurrence times. This work can provide a scientific basis for constructing effective urban pluvial flood monitoring systems.
