Sensitivity analysis of hydrological model is a key step in model uncertainty quantification, which can identify the dominant parameters, reduce the model calibration uncertainty, and enhance the model optimization efficiency. There are, however, some shortcomings in classical approaches, including the long duration of time and high computation cost required to quantitatively assess the sensitivity of a multiple-parameter hydrological model. For this reason, a two-step statistical evaluation framework using global techniques is presented. It is based on （1） a screening method （Morris） for qualitative ranking of parameters, and （2） a variance-based method integrated with a meta-model for quantitative sensitivity analysis, i.e., the Sobol method integrated with the response surface model （RSMSobol）. First, the Morris screening method was used to qualitatively identify the parameters＇ sensitivity, and then ten parameters were selected to quantify the sensitivity indices. Subsequently, the RSMSobol method was used to quantify the sensitivity, i.e., the first-order and total sensitivity indices based on the response surface model （RSM） were calculated. The RSMSobol method can not only quantify the sensitivity, but also reduce the computational cost, with good accuracy compared to the classical approaches. This approach will be effective and reliable in the global sensitivity analysis of a complex large-scale distributed hydrological model.展开更多

China is a major grain producing country, but thus far only a few studies have assessed the performance of GGCMs in China, and these studies mainly focused on the average and interannual variability of national and regional yields. Here, a systematic national-and provincial-scale evaluation of the simulations by13 GGCMs [12 from the GGCM Intercomparison(GGCMI) project, phase 1, and CLM5-crop] of the yields of four crops(wheat, maize, rice, and soybean) in China during 1980–2009 was carried out through comparison with crop yield statistics collected from the National Bureau of Statistics of China. Results showed that GGCMI models generally underestimate the national yield of rice but overestimate it for the other three crops, while CLM5-crop can reproduce the national yields of wheat, maize, and rice well. Most GGCMs struggle to simulate the spatial patterns of crop yields. In terms of temporal variability, GGCMI models generally fail to capture the observed significant increases, but some can skillfully simulate the interannual variability. Conversely, CLM5-crop can represent the increases in wheat, maize, and rice, but works less well in simulating the interannual variability. At least one model can skillfully reproduce the temporal variability of yields in the top-10 producing provinces in China, albeit with a few exceptions. This study, for the first time, provides a complete picture of GGCM performance in China, which is important for GGCM development and understanding the reliability and uncertainty of national-and provincial-scale crop yield prediction in China.展开更多

So far, it has already been listed in the first set of IGBP-sponsored transects, becoming a key theatre and "hot spot" for probing terrestrial ecosystems. In terms of biota, the nearly 1,600-kilometre-long tract is located in a mid-latitude zone, featuring a vegetational transition from a temperate timberland of evergreen coniferous forests and broadleaved deciduous forests to a mild-temperate steppe. According to the norms of biome types, it consists of three subzones: meadow steppe, typical steppe and desert steppe in a continuous east-to-west spatial sequence. There are four ecological stations supported by a great number of permanent samples, long-term plots and an enormous build-up of experimental data along展开更多

It incorporates our group...ABSTRACT The lAP Dynamic Global Vegetation Model （IAP-DGVM） has been developed to simulate the distribution and structure of global vegetation within the framework of Earth System Models. It incorporates our group＇s recent developments of major model components such as the shrub sub-model, establishment and competition parameterization schemes, and a process-based fire parameterization of intermediate complexity. The model has 12 plant functional types, including seven tree, two shrub, and three grass types, plus bare soil. Different PFTs are allowed to coexist within a grid cell, and their state variables are updated by various governing equations describing vegetation processes from fine-scale biogeophysics and biogeochemistry, to individual and population dynamics, to large-scale biogeography. Environmental disturbance due to fire not only affects regional vegetation competition, but also influences atmospheric chemistry and aerosol emissions. Simulations under observed atmospheric conditions showed that the model can correctly reproduce the global distribution of trees, shrubs, grasses, and bare soil. The simulated global dominant vegetation types reproduce the transition from forest to grassland （savanna） in the tropical region, and from forest to shrubland in the boreal region, but overestimate the region of temperate forest.展开更多

The new model incorporates the Community Land Model- DGVM （CLM3.0-DGVM） with a submodel for temperate and boreal shrubs, as well as other revisions such as the ＂two-leaf＂ scheme for photosynthesis and the definition of fractional coverage of plant functional types （PFTs）. Results show that the revised model may correctly reproduce the global distribution of temperate and boreal shrubs, and improves the model performance with more realistic distribution of di？erent vege- tation types. The revised model also correctly reproduces the zonal distributions of vegetation types. In reproducing the dependence of the vegetation distribution on climate conditions, the model shows that the dominant regions for trees, grasses, shrubs, and bare soil are clearly separated by a climate index derived from mean annual precipitation and temperature, in good agreement with the CLM4 surface data. The dominant plant functional type mapping to a two dimensional parameter space of mean annual temperature and precipitation also qualitatively agrees with the results from observations and theoretical ecology studies.展开更多

Forests of Heilongjiang province play an important role in the forest ecosystem of China. In this study we investi- gated the spatial distribution of forest carbon storage in Heilongjiang province using 3083 plots sampled in 2010. We attempted to fit two global models, ordinary least squares model （OLS）, linear mixed model （LMM）, and a local model, geographically weighted regression model （GWR）, to the relationship between forest carbon content and stand, environment, and climate factors. Five predictors significantly affected forest carbon storage and spatial distribution, viz. average diameter of stand （DBH）, number of trees per hectare （TPH）, elevation （Elev）, slope （Slope） and the product of precipitation and temperature （Rain Temp）. The GWR model outperformed the two global models in both model fitting and prediction because it successfully reduced both spatial auto- correlation and heterogeneity in model residuals. More importantly, the GWR model provided localized model coefficients for each location in the study area, which allowed us to evaluate the influences of local stand conditions and topographic features on tree and stand growth, and forest carbon stock. It also helped us to better understand the impacts of silvi- cultural and management activities on the amount and changes of forest carbon storage across the province. The detailed information can be readily incorporated with the mapping ability of GIS software to provide excellent tools for assessing the distribution and dynamics of the for- est-carbon stock in the next few years.展开更多

文摘The kinetic characteristics of plasma-assisted oxidative pyrolysis of ammonia are studied by using the global/fluid models hybrid solution method.Firstly,the stable products of plasma-assisted oxidative pyrolysis of ammonia are measured.The results show that the consumption of NH_(3)/O_(2)and the production of N_(2)/H_(2)change linearly with the increase of voltage,which indicates the decoupling of nonequilibrium molecular excitation and oxidative pyrolysis of ammonia at low temperatures.Secondly,the detailed reaction kinetics mechanism of ammonia oxidative pyrolysis stimulated by a nanosecond pulse voltage at low pressure and room temperature is established.Based on the reaction path analysis,the simplified mechanism is obtained.The detailed and simplified mechanism simulation results are compared with experimental data to verify the accuracy of the simplified mechanism.Finally,based on the simplified mechanism,the fluid model of ammonia oxidative pyrolysis stimulated by the nanosecond pulse plasma is established to study the pre-sheath/sheath behavior and the resultant consumption and formation of key species.The results show that the generation,development,and propagation of the pre-sheath have a great influence on the formation and consumption of species.The consumption of NH_(3)by the cathode pre-sheath is greater than that by the anode pre-sheath,but the opposite is true for OH and O(1S).However,within the sheath,almost all reactions do not occur.Further,by changing the parameters of nanosecond pulse power supply voltage,it is found that the electron number density,electron current density,and applied peak voltages are not the direct reasons for the structural changes of the sheath and pre-sheath.Furthermore,the discharge interval has little effect on the sheath structure and gas mixture breakdown.The research results of this paper not only help to understand the kinetic promotion of non-equilibrium excitation in the process of oxidative pyrolysis but also help to explore the influence of transport and chemical reaction kinetics on the oxidative pyrolysis of ammonia.

文摘Radio frequency capacitively coupled plasmas(RF CCPs)operated in Ar/O_(2)gas mixtures which are widely adopted in microelectronics,display,and photovoltaic industry,are investigated based on an equivalent circuit model coupled with a global model.This study focuses on the effects of singlet metastable molecule O_(2)(b^(1)∑_(8)^(+)),highly excited Herzberg states O_(2)(A^(3)∑_(u)^(+),A^(3)△_(u),c^(1)∑_(u)^(-)),and the negative ion O_(2)^(-),which are usually neglected in simulation studies.Specifically,their impact on particle densities,electronegativity,electron temperature,voltage drop across the sheath,and absorbed power in the discharge is analyzed.The results indicate that O_(2)(b^(1)∑_(8)^(+))and O_(2)^(-)exhibit relatively high densities in argon-oxygen discharges.While O_(2)(A^(3)∑_(u)^(+),A^(3)△_(u),c^(1)∑_(u)^(-))play a critical role in O_(2)b1S+g production,especially at higher pressure.The inclusion of these particles reduces the electronegativity,electron temperature,and key species densities,especially the O^(-)and O^(*)densities.Moreover,the sheath voltage drop,as well as the inductance and resistance of the plasma bulk are enhanced,while the sheath dissipation power and total absorbed power decrease slightly.With the increasing pressure,the influence of these particles on the discharge properties becomes more significant.The study also explores the generation and loss of main neutral species and charged particles within the pressure range of 20 mTorr-100 mTorr(1 Torr=1.33322×10^(2)Pa),offering insights into essential and non-essential reactions for future low-pressure O_(2)and Ar/O_(2)CCP discharge modeling.

文摘Accurately simulating mesoscale convective systems(MCSs)is essential for predicting global precipitation patterns and extreme weather events.Despite the ability of advanced models to reproduce MCS climate statistics,capturing extreme storm cases over complex terrain remains challenging.This study utilizes the Global–Regional Integrated Forecast System(GRIST)with variable resolution to simulate an eastward-propagating MCS event.The impact of three microphysics schemes,including two single-moment schemes(WSM6,Lin)and one double-moment scheme(Morrison),on the model sensitivity of MCS precipitation simulations is investigated.The results demonstrate that while all the schemes capture the spatial distribution and temporal variation of MCS precipitation,the Morrison scheme alleviates overestimated precipitation compared to the Lin and WSM6 schemes.The ascending motion gradually becomes weaker in the Morrison scheme during the MCS movement process.Compared to the runs with convection parameterization,the explicit-convection setup at 3.5-km resolution reduces disparities in atmospheric dynamics due to microphysics sensitivity in terms of vertical motions and horizontal kinetic energy at the high-wavenumber regimes.The explicit-convection setup more accurately captures the propagation of both main and secondary precipitation centers during the MCS development,diminishing the differences in both precipitation intensity and propagation features between the Morrison and two single-moment schemes.These findings underscore the importance of microphysics schemes for global nonhydrostatic modeling at the kilometer scale.The role of explicit convection for reducing model uncertainty is also outlined.

文摘Glacier mass balance is a key indicator of glacier health and climate change sensitivity.Influencing factors include both climatic and nonclimatic elements,forming a complex set of drivers.There is a lack of quantitative analysis of these composite factors,particularly in climate-typical regions like the Tanggula Mountains on the central Tibetan Plateau.We collected data on various factors affecting glacier mass balance from 2000 to 2020,including climate variables,topographic variables,geometric parameters,and glacier dynamics.We utilized linear regression models,ensemble learning models,and Open Global Glacier Model(OGGM)to analyze glacier mass balance changes in the Tanggula Mountains.Results indicate that linear models explain 58%of the variance in glacier mass balance,with seasonal temperature and precipitation having significant impacts.Our findings show that ensemble learning models made the explanations 5.2%more accurate by including the impact of topographic and geometric factors such as the average glacier height,the slope of the glacier tongue,the speed of the ice flow,and the area of the glacier.Interpretable machine learning identified the spatial distribution of positive and negative impacts of these characteristics and the interaction between glacier topography and ice dynamics.Finally,we predicted the responses of glaciers of different sizes to future climate change based on the results of interpretable machine learning.It was found that relatively large glaciers(>1 km~2)are likely to persist until the end of this century under low emission scenarios,whereas small glaciers(<1 km~2)are expected to nearly disappear by 2080 under any emission scenario.Our research provides technical support for improving glacier change modeling and protection on the Tibetan Plateau.

文摘Motivated by the wide applications of empirical global ocean tide models in Earth science,particularly in shallow waters and coastal regions,we proposed an updated global ocean tide model representing all major diurnal and semidiurnal tidal constituents.We integrated the development technique of the Technical University of Denmark(DTU10)model and calculated the residual tides using the intermediary FES2012 model.We utilized all available Topex/Poseidon,Jason-1,Ocean Surface Topography Mission(OSTM)/Jason-2 primary and tandem missions to develop the new model.To reduce the discrepancies between the model and in situ measurements estimated S2 tide constituent,the ERA-Interim model was selected for dry tropospheric correction of altimetry data.The newly developed model with an improved spatial resolution from 1/8°×1/8°to 1/16°×1/16°was assessed and compared against contemporary global ocean tide models using in situ measurements in coastal regions,continental shelf waters,marginal seas,and deep waters.The results demonstrate improvements in shallow waters and coastal regions,particularly in representative coastal re-gions such as the Northwest European Shelf and East Asian Marginal Seas.Moreover,the model performs well in simulating S_(2) and K_(2) tides with root mean square differences of 0.355 and 0.234 cm,respectively,against in situ measurements in deep waters world-wide.Compared with that of DTU10,the root sum square of the new model for the eight main tidal constituents decrease by 8.4%to 0.997 cm.

文摘Parameter identification, model calibration, and uncertainty quantification are important steps in the model-building process, and are necessary for obtaining credible results and valuable information. Sensitivity analysis of hydrological model is a key step in model uncertainty quantification, which can identify the dominant parameters, reduce the model calibration uncertainty, and enhance the model optimization efficiency. There are, however, some shortcomings in classical approaches, including the long duration of time and high computation cost required to quantitatively assess the sensitivity of a multiple-parameter hydrological model. For this reason, a two-step statistical evaluation framework using global techniques is presented. It is based on （1） a screening method （Morris） for qualitative ranking of parameters, and （2） a variance-based method integrated with a meta-model for quantitative sensitivity analysis, i.e., the Sobol method integrated with the response surface model （RSMSobol）. First, the Morris screening method was used to qualitatively identify the parameters＇ sensitivity, and then ten parameters were selected to quantify the sensitivity indices. Subsequently, the RSMSobol method was used to quantify the sensitivity, i.e., the first-order and total sensitivity indices based on the response surface model （RSM） were calculated. The RSMSobol method can not only quantify the sensitivity, but also reduce the computational cost, with good accuracy compared to the classical approaches. This approach will be effective and reliable in the global sensitivity analysis of a complex large-scale distributed hydrological model.

文摘Global gridded crop models(GGCMs) have been broadly applied to assess the impacts of climate and environmental change and adaptation on agricultural production. China is a major grain producing country, but thus far only a few studies have assessed the performance of GGCMs in China, and these studies mainly focused on the average and interannual variability of national and regional yields. Here, a systematic national-and provincial-scale evaluation of the simulations by13 GGCMs [12 from the GGCM Intercomparison(GGCMI) project, phase 1, and CLM5-crop] of the yields of four crops(wheat, maize, rice, and soybean) in China during 1980–2009 was carried out through comparison with crop yield statistics collected from the National Bureau of Statistics of China. Results showed that GGCMI models generally underestimate the national yield of rice but overestimate it for the other three crops, while CLM5-crop can reproduce the national yields of wheat, maize, and rice well. Most GGCMs struggle to simulate the spatial patterns of crop yields. In terms of temporal variability, GGCMI models generally fail to capture the observed significant increases, but some can skillfully simulate the interannual variability. Conversely, CLM5-crop can represent the increases in wheat, maize, and rice, but works less well in simulating the interannual variability. At least one model can skillfully reproduce the temporal variability of yields in the top-10 producing provinces in China, albeit with a few exceptions. This study, for the first time, provides a complete picture of GGCM performance in China, which is important for GGCM development and understanding the reliability and uncertainty of national-and provincial-scale crop yield prediction in China.

文摘The North East China Transect (NECT) is an exemplary region of landmass running along the line of 43°30′ North Latitude and caught between 112° and 130°30′ East Longtitude, and is being sampled by the International Geosphere-Biosphere Program (IGBP) for today’s study on global change. So far, it has already been listed in the first set of IGBP-sponsored transects, becoming a key theatre and "hot spot" for probing terrestrial ecosystems. In terms of biota, the nearly 1,600-kilometre-long tract is located in a mid-latitude zone, featuring a vegetational transition from a temperate timberland of evergreen coniferous forests and broadleaved deciduous forests to a mild-temperate steppe. According to the norms of biome types, it consists of three subzones: meadow steppe, typical steppe and desert steppe in a continuous east-to-west spatial sequence. There are four ecological stations supported by a great number of permanent samples, long-term plots and an enormous build-up of experimental data along

文摘In relatively coarse-resolution atmospheric models,cumulus parameterization helps account for the effect of subgridscale convection,which produces supplemental rainfall to the grid-scale precipitation and impacts the diurnal cycle of precipitation.In this study,the diurnal cycle of precipitation was studied using the new simplified Arakawa-Schubert scheme in a global non-hydrostatic atmospheric model,i.e.,the Yin-Yang-grid Unified Model for the Atmosphere.Two new diagnostic closures and a convective trigger function were suggested to emphasize the job of the cloud work function corresponding to the free tropospheric large-scale forcing.Numerical results of the 0.25-degree model in 3-month batched real-case simulations revealed an improvement in the diurnal precipitation variation by using a revised trigger function with an enhanced dynamical constraint on the convective initiation and a suitable threshold of the trigger.By reducing the occurrence of convection during peak solar radiation hours,the revised scheme was shown to be effective in delaying the appearance of early-afternoon rainfall peaks over most land areas and accentuating the nocturnal peaks that were wrongly concealed by the more substantial afternoon peak.In addition,the revised scheme enhanced the simulation capability of the precipitation probability density function,such as increasing the extremely low-and high-intensity precipitation events and decreasing small and moderate rainfall events,which contributed to the reduction of precipitation bias over mid-latitude and tropical land areas.

文摘Validation studies of global Digital Elevation Models(DEMs)in the existing literature are limited by the diversity and spread of landscapes,terrain types considered and sparseness of groundtruth.Moreover,there are knowledge gaps on the accuracy variations in rugged and complex landscapes,and previous studies have often not relied on robust internal and external validation measures.Thus,there is still only partial understanding and limited perspective of the reliability and adequacy of global DEMs for several applications.In this study,we utilize a dense spread of LiDAR groundtruth to assess the vertical accuracies of four medium-resolution,readily available,free-access and global coverage 1 arc-second(30 m)DEMs:NASADEM,ASTER GDEM,Copernicus GLO-30,and ALOS World 3D(AW3D).The assessment is carried out at landscapes spread across Cape Town,Southern Africa(urban/industrial,agricultural,mountain,peninsula and grassland/shrubland)and forested national parks in Gabon,Central Africa(low-relief tropical rainforest and high-relief tropical rainforest).The statistical analysis is based on robust accuracy metrics that cater for normal and non-normal elevation error distribution,and error ranking.In Cape Town,Copernicus DEM generally had the least vertical error with an overall Mean Error(ME)of 0.82 m and Root Mean Square Error(RMSE)of 2.34 m while ASTER DEM had the poorest performance.However,ASTER GDEM and NASADEM performed better in the low-relief and high-relief tropical forests of Gabon.Generally,the DEM errors have a moderate to high positive correlation in forests,and a low to moderate positive correlation in mountains and urban areas.Copernicus DEM showed superior vertical accuracy in forests with less than 40%tree cover,while ASTER and NASADEM performed better in denser forests with tree cover greater than 70%.This study is a robust regional assessment of these global DEMs.

文摘Hollow cathode,with the highest plasma density,current density,and temperature,becomes one of the most important components in the electro-thruster system.As the electric-propulsion thruster performance is directly related to the ionization rate,reliability,and lifetime of the hollow cathode,this paper develops a global model to study the effects of discharge current,gas flow rate,and gas species on the discharge characteristics in the insert and orifice regions of the hollow cathode.The emitter wall temperatures of hollow cathodes predicted by the global model are compared with experimental results from NSTAR thruster neutralization cathodes,confirming the model's validity.The influence of hollow cathode emitter material and structure sizes on the plasma parameters in the internal regions was also evaluated.The simulation results show that there is an optimal matching relationship between the discharge current and gas flow rate to guarantee the maximum ionization rate.The optimal working region for the hollow cathode has been deter-mined under different energetic,regime and structural parameters.The global model established in this paper can quickly determine the key structure and operating parameters of hollow cathode at the design stage,and provide the theoretical basis for hollow cathode design and development.

文摘We present a new global model of collinear autocorrelation based on second harmonic generation nonlinearity.The model is rigorously derived from the nonlinear coupled wave equation specific to the autocorrelation measurement configuration,without requiring a specific form of the incident pulse function.A rigorous solution of the nonlinear coupled wave equation is obtained in the time domain and expressed in a general analytical form.The global model fully accounts for the nonlinear interaction and propagation effects within nonlinear crystals,which are not captured by the classical local model.To assess the performance of the global model compared to the classic local model,we investigate the autocorrelation signals obtained from both models for different incident pulse waveforms and different full-widthes at half-maximum(FWHMs).When the incident pulse waveform is Lorentzian with an FWHM of 200 fs,the global model predicts an autocorrelation signal FWHM of 399.9 fs,while the classic local model predicts an FWHM of 331.4 fs.The difference between the two models is 68.6 fs,corresponding to an error of 17.2%.Similarly,for a sech-type incident pulse with an FWHM of 200 fs,the global model predicts an autocorrelation signal FWHM of 343.9 fs,while the local model predicts an FWHM of 308.8 fs.The difference between the two models is 35.1 fs,with an error of 10.2%.We further examine the behavior of the models for Lorentzian pulses with FWHMs of 100 fs,200 fs and 500 fs.The differences between the global and local models are 17.1 fs,68.6 fs and 86.0 fs,respectively,with errors approximately around 17%.These comparative analyses clearly demonstrate the superior accuracy of the global model in intensity autocorrelation modeling.

文摘At present,one of the methods used to determine the height of points on the Earth’s surface is Global Navigation Satellite System(GNSS)leveling.It is possible to determine the orthometric or normal height by this method only if there is a geoid or quasi-geoid height model available.This paper proposes the methodology for local correction of the heights of high-order global geoid models such as EGM08,EIGEN-6C4,GECO,and XGM2019e_2159.This methodology was tested in different areas of the research field,covering various relief forms.The dependence of the change in corrected height accuracy on the input data was analyzed,and the correction was also conducted for model heights in three tidal systems:"tide free","mean tide",and"zero tide".The results show that the heights of EIGEN-6C4 model can be corrected with an accuracy of up to 1 cm for flat and foothill terrains with the dimensionality of 1°×1°,2°×2°,and 3°×3°.The EGM08 model presents an almost identical result.The EIGEN-6C4 model is best suited for mountainous relief and provides an accuracy of 1.5 cm on the 1°×1°area.The height correction accuracy of GECO and XGM2019e_2159 models is slightly poor,which has fuzziness in terms of numerical fluctuation.

文摘The Mohorovicic discontinuity(Moho)boundary separating the Earth’s crust and mantle reflects the evolutionary trajectory of the Earth’s crust,yielding crucial insights into crustal formation,tectonic evolution,and profound dynamic processes.However,the prevailing Moho models for China and its adjacent areas suffer from limited accuracy,owing to the irregular and sparse distribution of seismic data collection.In this study,we employ gravimetric data to derive Moho depth,and employ Bott’s regularization method,integrating gravity and seismic data to reconstruct the Moho structure with high precision in a three-dimensional framework across China and its adjacent areas.By optimizing gravity potential field separation and interface inversion techniques,we present a detailed and accurate zoning scheme for classifying China and its adjacent areas into 35 gradient belts,6 primary tectonic units,and 35 secondary tectonic units,based on the spatial distribution characteristics of the Moho discontinuity.Notably,our tectonic pattern division results surpass previous studies in terms of resolution,providing a wealth of tectonic information.Leveraging the Moho depth model of China and its adjacent areas,we discuss orogenic belts,sedimentary basins,fault systems,plate boundaries,and land-sea coupled tectonic patterns.We meticulously summarize the Moho depth distribution characteristics of each tectonic unit,while exploring the macrostructural framework and geological significance of the study area.Our findings highlight the close relationship between China and its adjacent areas Moho depth model and deep geodynamics,elucidating the tectonic evolution both between and within tectonic plates,as well as the tectonic effects induced by mantle dynamics.These insights have crucial implications for the study of deep geodynamics in China and its adjacent areas.

文摘Addressing challenges such as low performance,high data signal-to-noise ratio requirements,and limited real-time capabilities in existing heart rate detection methods based on millimeter wave radar,this study presents a heart rate sensing approach tailored for weak vital sign signals characterized by low signal-to-noise ratio and missing data.The method applies a signal mask for echo sequences with variable length.Building upon this signal mask,a signal mapping technique that leverages morphology is devised to mitigate interference and noise.Additionally,learnable position encoding is incorporated to capture temporal features within the signal.Subsequently,a transformer encoder module is employed for matching and computation,culminating in the development of a time-series global regression model based on deep learning framework.Following the preparation of the dataset and model training,the proposed approach is validated by performance analysis experiments,interference resistance tests,and comparative experiments.Results indicate that this method achieves an impressive accuracy of 96.30%within signal durations ranging from 2 s to 5 s,and it is suitable for scenarios involving missing data and noise interference.Importantly,this approach effectively enables a precise heart rate sensing from short-duration radar signals.

文摘Rapid climate and cropland use changes in recent decades have posed major challenges to food security in China.Hainan Is-land is the only tropical island in China and is blessed with natural conditions for crop production.This study first simulates the climate scenarios of Hainan Island for 2030,2040 and 2050 under the four Socio-economic Pathways(SSPs)based on the climate models in ScenarioMIP of Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 6(CMIP6),and then simulates the land use scenarios of Hainan Island for 2030,2040 and 2050 based on the Cellular Automata(CA)-Markov model.Finally,based on the Global Agro-Ecological Zones(GAEZ)model,the rice potential yield in Hainan Island for 2030,2040 and 2050 are simulated,and the effects of future climate and cropland use changes on rice potential yields are investigated.The results show that:1)from 2020 to 2050,mean maximum temperature first decreases and then increases,while mean minimum temperature increase sharply followed by a leveling off under the four SSPs.Precipitation decreases and then increases under other three SSPs except SSP2-4.5.Net solar radiation increases continuously under SSP1-2.6,2-4.5,and 5-8.5,and has the lowest simulated values under SSP3-7.0.Mean wind speed increases continuously under SSP1-2.6,fluctuates more under SSP2-4.5 and SSP5-8.5,and increases slowly and then decreases sharply under SSP3-7.0.Relative humidity basically decreases continuously under the four SSPs.2)Areas of paddy field are 302.49 thousand,302.41 thousand and 302.71 thou-sand ha for 2030,2040 and 2050,respectively,all less than that in 2020.Paddy field is mainly converted into built-up land and wood-land.As for the conversion of other land types to paddy field,woodland is the main source.3)Under the effects of future climate and cropland use changes,the mean potential productions in Hainan Island under the four SSPs increase 1.17 million,1.13 million and 1.11 million t,respectively,and the mean potential yields increase 3873.21,3766.71 and 3672.38 kg/ha,respectively for the three periods.The largest increases in mean rice potential production and mean potential yield are 1.21 million t and 4008.00 kg/ha,1.16 million t and 3846.65 kg/ha,as well as 1.13 million t and 3732.75 kg/ha,respectively under SSP 3-7.0,indicating that SSP3-7.0 is the most suitable scenario for rice growth.This study could provide scientific basis for crop planting planning and agricultural policy adjustment.

文摘ABSTRACT The lAP Dynamic Global Vegetation Model （IAP-DGVM） has been developed to simulate the distribution and structure of global vegetation within the framework of Earth System Models. It incorporates our group＇s recent developments of major model components such as the shrub sub-model, establishment and competition parameterization schemes, and a process-based fire parameterization of intermediate complexity. The model has 12 plant functional types, including seven tree, two shrub, and three grass types, plus bare soil. Different PFTs are allowed to coexist within a grid cell, and their state variables are updated by various governing equations describing vegetation processes from fine-scale biogeophysics and biogeochemistry, to individual and population dynamics, to large-scale biogeography. Environmental disturbance due to fire not only affects regional vegetation competition, but also influences atmospheric chemistry and aerosol emissions. Simulations under observed atmospheric conditions showed that the model can correctly reproduce the global distribution of trees, shrubs, grasses, and bare soil. The simulated global dominant vegetation types reproduce the transition from forest to grassland （savanna） in the tropical region, and from forest to shrubland in the boreal region, but overestimate the region of temperate forest.

文摘The capability of an improved Dynamic Global Vegetation Model （DGVM） in reproducing the impact of climate on the terrestrial ecosystem is evaluated. The new model incorporates the Community Land Model- DGVM （CLM3.0-DGVM） with a submodel for temperate and boreal shrubs, as well as other revisions such as the ＂two-leaf＂ scheme for photosynthesis and the definition of fractional coverage of plant functional types （PFTs）. Results show that the revised model may correctly reproduce the global distribution of temperate and boreal shrubs, and improves the model performance with more realistic distribution of di？erent vege- tation types. The revised model also correctly reproduces the zonal distributions of vegetation types. In reproducing the dependence of the vegetation distribution on climate conditions, the model shows that the dominant regions for trees, grasses, shrubs, and bare soil are clearly separated by a climate index derived from mean annual precipitation and temperature, in good agreement with the CLM4 surface data. The dominant plant functional type mapping to a two dimensional parameter space of mean annual temperature and precipitation also qualitatively agrees with the results from observations and theoretical ecology studies.

文摘Heilongjiang province is the largest forest zone in China and the forest coverage rate is 46%. Forests of Heilongjiang province play an important role in the forest ecosystem of China. In this study we investi- gated the spatial distribution of forest carbon storage in Heilongjiang province using 3083 plots sampled in 2010. We attempted to fit two global models, ordinary least squares model （OLS）, linear mixed model （LMM）, and a local model, geographically weighted regression model （GWR）, to the relationship between forest carbon content and stand, environment, and climate factors. Five predictors significantly affected forest carbon storage and spatial distribution, viz. average diameter of stand （DBH）, number of trees per hectare （TPH）, elevation （Elev）, slope （Slope） and the product of precipitation and temperature （Rain Temp）. The GWR model outperformed the two global models in both model fitting and prediction because it successfully reduced both spatial auto- correlation and heterogeneity in model residuals. More importantly, the GWR model provided localized model coefficients for each location in the study area, which allowed us to evaluate the influences of local stand conditions and topographic features on tree and stand growth, and forest carbon stock. It also helped us to better understand the impacts of silvi- cultural and management activities on the amount and changes of forest carbon storage across the province. The detailed information can be readily incorporated with the mapping ability of GIS software to provide excellent tools for assessing the distribution and dynamics of the for- est-carbon stock in the next few years.

文摘With the completion of Chinese BeiDou Navigation Satellite System(BDS),the world has begun to enjoy the Positioning,Navigation,and Timing(PNT)services of four Global Navigation Satellite Systems(GNSS).In order to improve the GNSS performance and expand its applications,Low Earth Orbit(LEO)Enhanced Global Navigation Satellite System(LeGNSS)is being vigorously advocated.Combined with high-,medium-,and low-earth orbit satellites,it can improve GNSS performance in terms of orbit determination,Precise Point Positioning(PPP)convergence time,etc.This paper comprehensively reviews the current status of LeGNSS,focusing on analyzing its advantages and challenges for precise orbit and clock determination,PPP convergence,earth rotation parameter estimation,and global ionosphere modeling.Thanks to the fast geometric change brought by LEO satellites,LeGNSS is expected to fundamentally solve the problem of the long convergence time of PPP without any augmentation.The convergence time can be shortened within 1 minute if appropriate LEO constellations are deployed.However,there are still some issues to overcome,such as the optimization of LEO constellation as well as the real time LEO precise orbit and clock determination.
