青藏公路取土场高寒草原植被的恢复进程

按照青藏公路建设和整修的不同阶段，利用样方调查植被空间分布变化，得出高寒草原植被的自然演替进程遵循以下规律。在工程结束2年，8年，26年后，群落植被覆盖度和生物多样性指标分别达到原生植被的2％～4％，6％一23％；32％～54％，46％~50％：95％以上和100％左右．青藏公路沿线高寒草原植被的人为破坏影响是明显的，植被的自然恢复需要20年左右的时间．工程建设破坏面积大于1500m~2，植被难以恢复，土壤沙化和水土流失，影响周边地区生态环境质量．因此，在青藏铁路工程建设中首先应当减少对地形地貌的破坏，其次应当重视对地表土壤的保护并辅助人工植被恢复措施，促进植被的自然恢复．

贵州乌江水系枯水期河水硫同位素组成研究

对枯水期乌江及其主要支流河水的硫同位素组成进行了研究。河水SO4^2-的δ^34S值在-15．7‰～18．9‰之间，干流δ^34S值介于-3．7‰～0．0‰之间。主要支流河水的SO4^2-浓度和δ^34S值具有明显的区域性差异：上游碳酸盐岩地区支流河水SO4^2-浓度较高而δ^34S值较低，河水中的SO4^2-来源于煤中还原态硫的氧化、矿床硫化物氧化和大气降水；下游碳酸盐岩夹碎屑岩地区支流河水则相反，具有较低SO4^2-浓度和较高δ^34S值，河水中的SO4^2-来源于硫酸盐蒸发岩溶解、大气降水以及煤中还原态硫的氧化。干流的硫同位素组成显示枯水期河水中的硫酸盐主要来源于碳酸盐岩地区.

Application of liquid pre-column capillary electrophoresis technique to the study of interaction between drug enantiomers and human serum albumin

Based on the chiral separation of several basic drugs, dimetindene, tetryzoline, theodrenaline and verapamil, the liquid pre-column capillary electrophoresis (LPC-CE) technique was established. It was used to determine free concentrations of drug enantiomers in mixed solutions with human serum albumin (HSA). To prevent HSA entering the CE chiral separation zone, the mobility differences between HSA and drugs under a specific pH condition were employed in the LPC. Thus, the detection confusion caused by protein was totally avoided. Further study of binding constants determination and protein binding competitions was carried out. The study proves that the LPC technique could be used for complex media, particularly the matrix of protein coexisting with a variety of drugs.

The Image Irradiance Equation: Its Solution and Application

How much information about the shape of an object can be inferred from its image? In particular, can the shape of an object be reconstructed by measuring the light it reflects from points on its surface? These questions were raised by Horn [HO70] who formulated a set of conditions such that the image formation can be described in terms of a first order partial differential equation, the image irradiance equation. In general, an image irradiance equation has infinitely many solutions. Thus constraints necessary to find a unique solution need to be identified. First we study the continuous image irradiance equation. It is demonstrated when and how the knowledge of the position of edges on a surface can be used to reconstruct the surface. Furthermore we show how much about the shape of a surface can be deduced from so called singular points. At these points the surface orientation is uniquely determined by the measured brightness. Then we investigate images in which certain types of silhouettes, which we call b-silhouettes, can be detected. In particular we answer the following question in the affirmative: Is there a set of constraints which assure that if an image irradiance equation has a solution, it is unique? To this end we postulate three constraints upon the image irradiance equation and prove that they are sufficient to uniquely reconstruct the surface from its image. Furthermore it is shown that any two of these constraints are insufficient to assure a unique solution to an image irradiance equation. Examples are given which illustrate the different issues. Finally, an overview of known numerical methods for computing solutions to an image irradiance equation are presented.

Internal languages of retrieval: the bilingual encoding of memories for the personal past.

In contrast to most research on bilingual memory that focuses on how words in either lexicon are mapped onto memory for objects and concepts, we focus on memory for events in the personal past. Using a word-cue technique in sessions devoted exclusively to one language, we found that older Hispanic immigrants who had come to the United States as adults internally retrieved autobiographical memories in Spanish for events in the country of origin and in English for events in the U.S. These participants were consistently capable of discerning whether a memory had come to them "in words" or not, reflecting the distinction between purely imagistic or conceptual memories and specifically linguistic memories. Via examination of other phenomenological features of these memories (sense of re-living, sensory detail, emotionality, and rehearsal), we conclude that the linguistic/nonlinguistic distinction is fundamental and independent of these other characteristics. Bilinguals encode and retrieve certain autobiographical memories in one or the other language according to the context of encoding, and these linguistic characteristics are stable properties of those memories over time.

Prices versus quantities versus bankable quantities

Quantity-based regulation with banking allows regulated firms to shift obligations across time in response to periods of unexpectedly high or low marginal costs. Despite its wide prevalence in existing and proposed emission trading programs, banking has received limited attention in past welfare analyses of policy choice under uncertainty. We address this gap with a model of banking behavior that captures two key constraints: uncertainty about the future from the firm's perspective and a limit on negative bank values (e.g. borrowing). We show conditions where banking provisions reduce price volatility and lower expected costs compared to quantity policies without banking. For plausible parameter values related to U.S. climate change policy, we find that bankable quantities produce behavior quite similar to price policies for about two decades and, during this period, improve welfare by about a $1 billion per year over fixed quantities. © 2012 Elsevier B.V.

Poliedros: lenguaje y representación espacial

En esta comunicación ponemos de manifiesto la importancia del estudio de los poliedros en la Enseñanza Secundaria y su utilidad para el desarrollo y la comunicación de ideas matemáticas. Con esta intención planteamos una serie de tareas que permiten al profesor y al alumno trabajar los poliedros potenciando el lenguaje en el aula de matemáticas y las capacidades espaciales del alumno. Las tareas aquí presentadas fueron realizadas en unas Jornadas de Investigación en el aula de matemáticas organizadas por la Sociedad de Profesores de Matemáticas THALES en Granada con la participación de profesores de distintos niveles educativos.

Multilevel mesh partitioning for heterogeneous communication networks

Multilevel algorithms are a successful class of optimisation techniques which address the mesh partitioning problem for distributing unstructured meshes onto parallel computers. They usually combine a graph contraction algorithm together with a local optimisation method which refines the partition at each graph level. To date these algorithms have been used almost exclusively to minimise the cut edge weight in the graph with the aim of minimising the parallel communication overhead, but recently there has been a perceived need to take into account the communications network of the parallel machine. For example the increasing use of SMP clusters (systems of multiprocessor compute nodes with very fast intra-node communications but relatively slow inter-node networks) suggest the use of hierarchical network models. Indeed this requirement is exacerbated in the early experiments with meta-computers (multiple supercomputers combined together, in extreme cases over inter-continental networks). In this paper therefore, we modify a multilevel algorithm in order to minimise a cost function based on a model of the communications network. Several network models and variants of the algorithm are tested and we establish that it is possible to successfully guide the optimisation to reflect the chosen architecture.

Ergodicity and stability of generalised Markov branching processes with resurrection

This paper concentrates on investigating ergodicity and stability for generalised Markov branching processes with resurrection. Easy checking criteria including several clear-cut corollaries are established for ordinary and strong ergodicity of such processes. The equilibrium distribution is given in an elegant closed form for the ergodic case. The probabilistic interpretation of the results is clear and thus explained.
