Ants feeding on anal exudate from tortricid larvae: a new type of trophobiosis

A new type of trophobiosis between tortricid larvae of a hitherto unknown genus and species, and various ant species of the subfamilies Formicinae, Dolichoderinae and Myrmicinae, was found in Malaysia. The larvae live in silken shelters fixed to the leaves of bamboo. In response to mechanical stimuli from the ants, they discharge from the anus a liquid containing sugar and amino acids and/or protein. The tortricid is described as Semutophila saccharopa gen. nov., sp. nov.; a second species, S. susurra sp. nov., is described from New Guinea.     

Benthic foraminiferal δ~(13)C minimum events in the southeastern Okhotsk Sea over the last 180 ka

A total of six d13C minimum events,i.e.,VI,V,IV,III,II,and I,were observed via a stable carbon and oxygen isotope analysis of infaunal benthic foraminifera Uvigerina spp.in gravity core OS03-1 in the southeastern Okhotsk Sea over the last 180 ka.These events occurred at112–109,102–90,85–76,57–54,44–40,and 17–10 ka BP.The largest negative excursions reached 2.5%in event V and were greater than 1%in the other events.We proposed that all d13C minimum events were caused by the increase in sea surface water productivity,the weakened formation of Okhotsk Sea intermediate water,and the enhancement of the oxygen minimum zone.The negative excursions were unaffected by methane hydrate destabilization and subsequent methane release based on the results obtained by using archaeal lipid markers.

周期冲激函数与黎曼引理

证明了周期冲激函数展开所得到的傅里叶级数收敛于冲激函数，冲激函数不满足黎曼引理，因此由黎曼引理导出的傅里叶级数的性质不适合于周期冲激函数，对由黎曼引理推出的傅里叶级数的系数的性质进行了修正。

千枚岩隧道破碎带 TSP 超前预报解译标志

千枚岩等软岩隧道施工中易出现垮塌等地质灾害。以典型千枚岩隧道———汶马高速公路鹧鸪山隧道为例,以地震波传播理论为依据,结合工程地质分析及地震波正演模拟,探讨TSP 预报中针对千枚岩构造破碎带在不同含水率状况下的地震波反射特性及解译标志,结果表明：纵波及横波遇千枚岩构造破碎带反射现象明显,横波较纵波反射更强烈;破碎带富水时,千枚岩泥化变软,纵波反射加强;从深度偏移角度分析,破碎带内正负反射频繁变化,单个反射层延伸性差。研究结果可以提高 TSP 在软岩隧道中的预报准确性。     

面波有限频率法3-D灵敏度核函数的计算

高分辨率面波成像应克服射线理论的高频近似假设,考虑有限频率效应.该文给出了一种计算面没有限频率3-D灵敏度核函数的方法.该方法可直接计算球壳层状地球模型中面波振型特征值和特征函数,而不再需要采用球化平变换来近似计算球壳层状地球模型中面波频散参数.作者计算了相位延迟、振幅扰动和群到时延迟的3-D灵敏度核函数,并对面波有限频率效应进行了讨论.分析结果显示:面波相位延迟的3-D灵敏度核函数同2-D体波走时的核函数形状类似,说明面波具有二维传播特性.对相速度数据而言,Fresnel带方法适用于低频面波的反演,射线方法适用于高频面波的反演,而对于中等频率的面波反演应采用有限频率方法.频率的商低是相对于所要取得的分辨率而言的.在反演地壳上地幔细结构方面,群频散数据更具有优越性;然而,群到时延迟核函数的极强的旁瓣可能使得反演变得不稳定.     

连续埋地管线沉陷情况下可靠度分析

场地的不均匀沉陷是埋地管线破坏的重要原因之一.运用均值一次二阶矩法和ANSYS中的蒙特卡罗法对埋地管线在地面沉陷位移、材料性能参数、内水压力等随机变量下的可靠度进行计算分析,得到考虑和不考虑管道内水压力时的可靠度系数和失效概率.结果表明,地面沉陷位移的变异性对沉陷区埋地管线的可靠度有着十分重要的影响,与不考虑管道内水压力作用的结果相比,考虑管道内水压力时的失效概率较大,可靠度系数较小;管道壁厚和直径的变异性对沉陷区埋地管线的可靠度也存在着不可忽视的影响.     

Operational properties and matrix representations of quantum measures

Denoted by M(A), QM(A) and SQM(A) the sets of all measures, quantum measures and subadditive quantum measures on a σ-algebra A, respectively. We observe that these sets are all positive cones in the real vector space F(A) of all real-valued functions on A and prove that M(A) is a face of SQM(A). It is proved that the product of m grade-1 measures is a grade-m measure. By combining a matrix M _μ to a quantum measure μ on the power set A _n of an n-element set X, it is proved that μ ≪ ν (resp. μ ⊥ ν) if and only if M _μ ≪ M _ν (resp. M _μ M _ν =0). Also, it is shown that two nontrivial measures μ and ν are mutually absolutely continuous if and only if μ·ν∈QM(A _n ). Moreover, the matrices corresponding to quantum measures are characterized. Finally, convergence of a sequence of quantum measures on A _n is introduced and discussed; especially, the Vitali-Hahn-Saks theorem for quantum measures is proved.
