In this algorithm, switching between the quaternion and the three-component vector is done by a couple of the mathematical transformations. Quaternion is chosen as the state variable of attitude in the kinematics equation to time update, while the mean value and covariance of the quaternion are computed by the three-component vector to avoid the normalization constraint of quaternion. The square-root forms enjoy a continuous and improved numerical stability because all the resulting covariance matrices are guaranteed to stay positively semidefinite. The entire square-root cubature attitude estimation algorithm with quaternion-vector switching for the nonlinear equality constraint of quaternion is given. The numerical simulation of simultaneous swing motions in the three directions is performed to compare with the three kinds of filters and the results indicate that the proposed filter provides lower attitude estimation errors than the other two kinds of filters and a good convergence rate.展开更多

On the basis of grid data, inversion was conducted and magnetic field distribution and magnetic structure on bedding of different depths were obtained. The new results show that: 1. The magnetic field characteristics are largely different in horizontal and vertical directions and they can be divided into zones according to the continental blocks of Yangtze, Cathaysia, Kangdian (Sichuan-Yunnan) and Qinling-Dabie. 2. The Tanlu fault extends southward along the Ganjiang fault and the Wuchuan-Sihui fault after it crossed over the Yangtze River and was offset locally in the east-west direction. The Tanlu fault finally slips into the South China Sea at Hainan Island. 3. The boundary between Yangtze and Cathaysia blocks starts from Hangzhou Bay in the east, extends along Jiangshao fault and passes through Nanchang, Changsha, and Guilin, and finally enters the sea at Qinzhou, Guangxi. 4. The distribution of buried structure zone is located at 24.5°-26° N.展开更多

Parameters is clearer than that by traditional method of analysis. The indication of sedimentary events can show its high resolution. The study on the Late Quaternary sedimentary events in this area shows that this area underwent four big events of sudden change in the Holocene epoch based on the sudden change of underflow direction and the position relationship between ash beds and erosion sediment layers. The sudden change of underflow direction is a believable evidence for judgement and study of sudden event within this area. The direction changes of its geomagnetic field show three morphotypes i. e. relatively stable type and non-stable type of oscillatory amplitude of magnetic inclination (Inc) which existed during the relatively stable period of amplitude of magnetic declination (Dnc). Anothertype is characterized by big amplitude of both inclination and declination.The space-time series of the three type mentioned above is a new way for forming a high-resolution stratigraphical timetable.展开更多

The Tanlu fault finally slips into the South China Sea at Hainan Island. 3. The boundary between Yangtze and Cathaysia blocks starts from Hangzhou Bay in the east, extends along Jiangshao fault and passes through Nanchang, Changsha, and Guilin, and finally enters the sea at Qinzhou, Guangxi. 4. The distribution of buried structure zone is located at 24.5°-26° N.

文摘We combined domestic ground-based and satellite magnetic measurements to create a regional three-dimensional surface Spline(3DSS)gradient model of the main geomagnetic field over the Chinese continent.To improve the precision of the model,we considered the data gap between the ground and satellite data.We compared and analyzed the results of the Taylor polynomial,surface Spline,and CHAOS-6(the CHAMP,?rsted and SAC-C model of Earth’s magnetic field)gradient models.Results showed that the gradients in the south-north and east-west directions of the four models were consistent.The 3DSS model was able to express not only gradients at different altitudes,but also average gradients inside the research area.The two Spline models were able to capture more information on gradient anomalies than were the fitted models.Strong local anomalies were observed in northern Xinjiang,Beijing,and the junction area between Jiangsu and Zhejiang,and the total intensity F decreased whereas the altitude increased.The gradient decreased by 21.69%in the south-north direction and increased by 11.78%in the east-west direction.In addition,the altitude gradient turned from negative to positive while the altitude increased.The Spline model and the two fitted models differed mainly in the field sources they expressed and the modeling theory.

文摘Earth’s magnetic field is generated in the fluid outer core through the dynamo process.Over the last decade,data assimilation has been used to retrieve the core dynamics and predict the evolution of the geomagnetic field.The presence of model errors in the geomagnetic data assimilation is inevitable because current numerical geodynamo models are still far from realistic core dynamics.In this paper,we investigate the effect of model errors in geomagnetic data assimilation based on ensemble Kalman filter(EnKF).We construct two dynamo models with different control parameters but exhibiting similar force balance and magnetic morphology at the core surface.We then use one dynamo model to generate synthetic observations and the other as the forward model in EnKF.Our test experiments show that the EnKF approach with the pre-setting model errors can nevertheless recover large-scale core surface flow and make a rough short-term(5-year)prediction.However,the data assimilation in the presence of model errors cannot keep improving the core state even though new observations are available.Motivated by the planned Macao Science Satellite-1,which is expected to provide improved internal geomagnetic field model,we also perform a test experiment using synthetic observations up to spherical harmonic degree l=18.Our results indicate that high-resolution observations are crucial in reconstructing small scale flow.

文摘In the current state of geomagnetic instrument testing,some aspects of geomagnetic instrument performance are difficult to test in the laboratory.If laboratory test results are inadequate,the instrument will have multiple problems while operating in the field,where a geomagnetic instrumentation test platform with a stable natural magnetic field is critical.Here,the magnetic field feedback circuit for geomagnetic field compensation control is studied in detail.That is,the magnetic field measured by the feedback magnetic sensor and the required working magnetic field are compared as input to the system,and the electric signal is transmitted to the feedback coil through an analog circuit to form a closed loop control,which provides compensation to control the magnetic field.Compared with the existing magnetic shielding method,the analog control circuit can achieve the realization of any working magnetic field,and it is not limited to a null magnetic field.The experimental result shows that the system compensates the earth’s magnetic field of 10,000 nT with an average error of 10.6 nT and average compensation error of 0.106%,providing a high compensation accuracy.The system also shows high sensitivity and excellent stability.The feedback circuit has achieved effective compensation control for the earth’s magnetic field.
文摘In this paper a solution to the problem of the self-generated magnetic field of the Earth is pro-posed. The solution is based on the existence of a steady-state current distribution localized in some region inside the convective zone of the planet, constituted by the fluid Outer Core. The magnitude of the self-generated magnetic field is obtained and it is shown to be a dipolar field.

文摘The cosmic-ray(CR)electrons and positrons in space are of considerable significance for studying the origin and propagation of CRs.The satellite-borne detector Dark Matter Particle Explorer(DAMPE)has been used to measure the separate electron and positron spectra,as well as the positron fraction.In this study,the Earth's magnetic field is used to distinguish CR electrons and positrons,as the DAMPE detector does not carry an onboard magnet.The energy for the measurements ranges from 10 to 20 GeV,which is currently limited at high energy by the zenith-pointing orientation of DAMPE.The results are consistent with previous measurements based on the magnetic spectrometer by AMS-02 and PAMELA,whereas the results of Fermi-LAT appear to be systematically shifted to larger values.

文摘Measurements from geomagnetic satellites continue to underpin advances in geomagnetic field models that describe Earth's internally generated magnetic field.Here,we present a new field model,MSCM,that integrates vector and scalar data from the Swarm,China Seismo-Electromagnetic Satellite(CSES),and Macao Science Satellite-1(MSS-1)missions.The model spans from 2014.0 to 2024.5,incorporating the core,lithospheric,and magnetospheric fields,and it shows characteristics similar to other published models based on different data.For the first time,we demonstrate that it is possible to successfully construct a geomagnetic field model that incorporates CSES vector data,albeit one in which the radial and azimuthal CSES vector components are Huber downweighted.We further show that data from the MSS-1 can be integrated within an explicitly smoothed,fully time-dependent model description.Using the MSCM,we identify new behavior of the South Atlantic Anomaly,the broad region of low magnetic field intensity over the southern Atlantic.This prominent feature appears split into a western part and an eastern part,each with its own intensity minimum.Since 2015,the principal western minimum has undergone only modest intensity decreases of 290 nT and westward motion of 20 km per year,whereas the recently formed eastern minimum has shown a 2–3 times greater intensity drop of 730 nT with no apparent east-west motion.

文摘Many planets,including the Earth,possess a global dipolar magnetic field.To diagnose the interior source of the dipolar field,researchers usually adopt a dipole model consisting of six parameters to fit the observed dataset of the magnetic field.However,the simultaneous fitting of these parameters often leads to multiple local optimal parameter sets.To address this fitting dilemma,Rong ZJ et al.(2021)recently developed a current loop model.This technique can successively separate and invert the loop parameters.Here,we further show how this technique can be reduced and modified to fit a dipole model.Applications of this reduced technique to the International Geomagnetic Reference Field model and the Martian crustal field model highlight its unique ability to diagnose both the planetary global dipolar field and the local crustal field anomaly,a capability that sets it apart from existing methods.The potential impact of this technique on geomagnetism and planetary magnetism is significant,given its unique ability to diagnose both the planetary global dipolar field and the local crustal field anomaly.

文摘The Low Earth Orbit(LEO)geomagnetic satellites provide a large number of high-precision measurements,which are crucial for researching the Secular Variation(SV)of the geomagnetic field.We employ the combined constellation data from the Chinese Seismo-Electromagnet Satellite(CSES)and Swarm satellites to extract the SV in China and surrounding areas,based on the Geomagnetic Virtual Observatory(GVO)method.On this basis,we have developed two GVO products:the core field,and the SV series.The accuracies of these products are assessed using ground observatories measurements and geomagnetic field model.Moreover,the results indicate that the GVO products align well with the series from ground observatories and the CHAOS model.The majority of root-mean-square deviation(RMSE)values of the core field series are less than 5 nT,consistent with the INTERMAGNET standards for quasi-definitive data.In the GVO core field series,the maximum accuracy of one-month and four-month intervals are 2.24 nT and 1.16 nT,respectively.In the GVO SV series,the maximum accuracy of one-month and four-month intervals are 2.03 nT/yr and 1.36 nT/yr,respectively.The GVO SV series effectively capture geomagnetic jerks without losing temporal resolution comparing with the recording of ground observatories.We demonstrate that the GVO method serves as an effective and precise tool for extracting SV information of geomagnetic fields.In the GVO products,the RMSE of the horizontal component exceeds that of the vertical component,and the magnitude of RMSE deviation correlates with solar activity levels.With more and more geomagnetic satellites in orbit,we wish to use multi-constellation magnetic satellite data to assess the geomagnetic field more accurately.

文摘The geomagnetic field(GMF)is well documented for its essential role as a cue used in animal orientation or navigation.Recent evidence indicates that the absence of GMF(mimicked by the near-zero magnetic field,NZMF)can trigger stress-like responses such as reduced body weight,as we have previously shown in the brown planthopper,Nilaparvata lugens.In this study,we found that consistent with the significantly decreased body weight of newly emerged female(—14.67%)and male(—13.17%)adult N.lugens,the duration of the phloem ingestion feeding waveform was significantly reduced by 32.02%in 5th instar nymphs reared under the NZMF versus GMF.Interestingly,5th instar nymphs that exhibited reduced feeding had significantly higher glucose levels(+16.98%and+20.05%;24 h and 48 h after molting),which are associated with food aversion,and expression patterns of their appetite-related neuropeptide genes(neuropeptide F,dow regulated overall;short neuropeptide F,dowregulated overall;adipokinetic hormone up-regulated overall;and adipokinetic hormone receptor,down-regulated overall)were also altered under the absence of GMF in a manner consistent with diminishing appetite.Moreover,the expressions of the potential magnetosensor croptochromes(Crys)were found significantly altered under the absence of GMF,indicating the likely upstream signaling of the Cry-mediated magnetoreception mechanisms.These findings support the hypothesis that strong changes in GMF intensity can reduce adult body weight through affecting insect feeding behavior and underlying regulatory processes including appetite regulation.Our results highlight that GMF could be necessary for the maintenanee of energy homeostasis in insects.
文摘The analysis on the magnetic fabric of profile of the sedimentary core taken in five stations in the small spreading ridge area in Mariana Trough shows that the effect of indicating its depositional fabric, sedimentary rhythm.sedimentary events, sedimentary interfaces and sediment composition as well as sedimentary dynamic environment by magnetic. Parameters is clearer than that by traditional method of analysis. The indication of sedimentary events can show its high resolution. The study on the Late Quaternary sedimentary events in this area shows that this area underwent four big events of sudden change in the Holocene epoch based on the sudden change of underflow direction and the position relationship between ash beds and erosion sediment layers. The sudden change of underflow direction is a believable evidence for judgement and study of sudden event within this area. The direction changes of its geomagnetic field show three morphotypes i. e. relatively stable type and non-stable type of oscillatory amplitude of magnetic inclination (Inc) which existed during the relatively stable period of amplitude of magnetic declination (Dnc). Anothertype is characterized by big amplitude of both inclination and declination.The space-time series of the three type mentioned above is a new way for forming a high-resolution stratigraphical timetable.
