文摘Manganese is a major impurity in acidic vanadium-bearing leaching solutions,but its effects on vanadium precipitation via hydrolysis and acidic ammonium salts remain unclear.In this study,vanadium-bearing leachates with varying manganese concentrations(VL-cMn)were prepared through calcium,a calcium-manganese composite,and manganese-based roasting of vanadium slag(VS)to investigate the influence of manganese on vanadium precipitation behavior during hydrolysis precipitation(HP)and ammonium salt precipitation(AP),as well as the microscopic characteristics and purity of the resulting V_(2)O_(5) products.The results showed that increasing the pH mitigated the negative effects of Mn on the V precipitation rate during HP.However,as the manganese concentration increased from 5.69 to 15.38 g/L,the V precipitation rate gradually declined at higher temperatures and longer reaction times.The precipitates exhibited increased microstructural density,which might had contributed to the formation of Mn-bearing phases.Additionally,the average grain size of V_(2)O_(5) was reduced and the particles were increasingly agglomerated,leading to a 2.55%decrease in product purity.For AP,as manganese concentration increased,raising the pH counteracted the negative impact of Mn on the V precipitation rate and reduced the required amount of ammonium sulfate.Moreover,Mn was unevenly adsorbed on the surface of the precipitates.Although V_(2)O_(5) grains gradually shrank and became denser,there was no significant effect on the final product purity,which remained above 99.3%.In conclusion,roasting with added manganese salts influenced the hydrolysis of vanadium but had no significant effect on acidic ammonium salt precipitation.

文摘Enzyme-Induced Carbonate Precipitation(EICP)is an innovative technique to improve soil strength and reduce permeability.However,the use of EICP for reinforcing underwater sand beds remains largely unexplored.To advance EICP implementation in various geotechnical applications,this paper develops a model box system to investigate the effectiveness of the EICP technique in reinforcing underwater sand beds.An"injection-extraction"system is designed to facilitate the flow of the EICP solution through underwater sand layers.Key parameters,including conductivity,pH,and Ca^(2+)concentration of the solution,are measured and analyzed.Electrical resistivity tomography(ERT)is utilized to evaluate the reinforcement effect in the underwater sand bed.The permeability of the model is tested to verify the feasibility of EICP technology for strengthening underwater sands.Furthermore,scanning electron microscope(SEM)is performed to investigate the growth mechanisms of calcium carbonate(CaCO_(3))crystals.The results show that the permeability of the model decreases from 1.28×10^(-2)m/s to 9.66×10^(-5)m/s,representing a reduction of approximately three orders of magnitude.This verifies that the EICP technology can greatly reduce the permeability of underwater sand beds.With increasing grouting cycles,the resistivity of the underwater sand initially decreases and then increases.This variation in sand resistivity is significantly influenced by the ion concentration in the solution,resulting in marked differences in resistivity at various depths and positions within the sand.The findings from this study offer a theoretical basis for the application of EICP technology in reinforcing seabed foundations and supporting marine infrastructure such as offshore pipelines,wind turbines,and oil platforms.

文摘Enzyme-induced carbonate precipitation(EICP)is a potential ground improvement method that can reduce the permeability of sands.However,the traditional mathematical models are hard to accurately predict the permeability of EICP-treated sands.In this study,the mathematical model was established for predicting the permeability of EICP-treated sands based on Kozeny-Carman equation.The effects of calcium carbonate precipitation on the porosity,tortuosity,and specific surface area of the EICP-treated sands were considered in the model.To validate the model,the bio-cemented sand column tests with different grain size distributions(coarse,medium,and fine sands)and treatment numbers(6,8,and 10 times)were conducted.The calcium carbonate content(CCC)and permeability of EICP-treated sands were measured.The validation of the model was confirmed through a comparative analysis of theoretical and experimental results.Furthermore,the impacts of porosity,particle size,CCC,and specific surface area on the hydraulic conductivity of EICP-treated sands were analyzed.The results showed that the model can reflect the hydraulic conductivity of EICP-treated sands under different particle size distributions and degrees of cementation,demonstrating broad applicability.Parametric analysis indicated the hydraulic conductivity gradually decreases with increasing CCC and specific surface area.Conversely,the hydraulic conductivity gradually increases with increasing porosity(n)and particle size(d50),with porosity exhibiting a significantly higher sensitivity than particle size.In summary,this study contributes theoretical foundations for the practical implementation of EICP technology in reducing soil permeability.

文摘Precipitation events,which follow a life cycle of initiation,development,and decay,represent the fundamental form of precipitation.Comprehensive and accurate detection of these events is crucial for effective water resource management and flood control.However,current investigations on their spatio-temporal patterns remain limited,largely because of the lack of systematic detection indices that are specifically designed for precipitation events,which constrains event-scale research.In this study,we defined a set of precipitation event detection indices(PEDI)that consists of five conventional and fourteen extreme indices to characterize precipitation events from the perspectives of intensity,duration,and frequency.Applications of the PEDI revealed the spatial patterns of hourly precipitation events in China and its first-and second-order river basins from 2008 to 2017.Both conventional and extreme precipitation events displayed spatial distribution patterns that gradually decreased in intensity,duration,and frequency from southeast to northwest China.Compared with those in northwest China,the average values of most PEDIs in southeast China were usually 2-10 times greater for first-order river basins and 3-15 times greater for second-order basins.The PEDI could serve as a reference method for investigating precipitation events at global,regional,and basin scales.

文摘The water-quenched(WQ)2195 Al−Li alloy was subjected to stretching at different temperatures,from room temperature(RT)to−196℃(CT),to investigate the effect of cryogenic deformation on the aging precipitation behaviors and mechanical properties.The precipitation kinetics of the T1 phase and the microstructures in peak aging state were investigated through the differential scanning calorimetric(DSC)tests and electron microscopy observation.The results show that−196℃deformation produces a high dislocation density,which promotes the precipitation of the T1 phase and refines its sizes significantly.In addition,the grain boundary precipitates(GBPs)of−196℃-stretched samples are suppressed considerably due to the high dislocation density in the grain interiors,which increases the ductility.In comparison,the strength remains nearly constant.Thus,it is indicated that cryogenic forming has the potential to provide the shape and property control for the manufacture of critical components of aluminum alloys.

文摘China launched its first spaceborne Precipitation Measurement Radar(PMR)on the FY-3G satellite in April 2023.To achieve the scientific goal of measuring the three-dimensional precipitation structure,evaluating the quantitative measurement ability of the PMR is critical.China operates more than 250 weather radars over the mainland.Consistency of the spaceborne radar with ground-based radars will enhance precipitation measurement ability,especially over oceans and mountains where observations are sparse.Additionally,the spaceborne radar can be used to evaluate the spatial and temporal homogeneity of the ground-based radar network.This paper focuses on comparing the PMR onboard the FY-3G satellite with S-band China New Generation Weather Radars(CINRADs).A comparison algorithm between the PMR and CINRADs has been developed,incorporating detailed quality control,attenuation correction,data optimization,spatiotemporal matching,non-uniform beam filling constraint,uniformity constraint,and frequency correction.The matched data in typical months of four seasons were selected to carry out the comparison.The data consistency between the PMR and CINRADs was analyzed.The correlation coefficient is 0.87,the deviation is 0.89 dB,and the standard deviation is 2.50 dB,based on 98226 matching samples.The results show the radar reflectivity of the PMR is quite comparable to that of the CINRADs,demonstrating that the PMR data quality is satisfactory and can be used to verify and correct data consistency among multiple ground-based radars.This work also paves the way for data fusion and joint application of satellite and ground radars in the future.

文摘Acid is commonly used to separate phosphorus-containing solid solutions from steelmaking slag.However,the acid leaching solution obtained from this process cannot be directly utilized and thus requires purification.The effect of different conditions on the calcium and iron removal characteristics of modified steelmaking slag leaching solution was investigated.Additionally,the removal mechanism was analyzed by thermodynamic calculations.The results indicated that the addition of soybean straw ash in steelmaking slag modification enabled K_(2)O to enter the phosphorus-containing solid solution,promoting phosphorus enrichment.Valuable elements such as phosphorus and potassium were more easily dissolved in the mixed acid.The oxalic acid concentration had a significant effect on the calcium removal rate,whereas the effects of temperature,stirring rate,and time on the calcium removal rate were minor.The main component of the calcium removal precipitate was CaC_(2)O_(4)·H_(2)O,with a removal rate up to 94.48%.During the iron removal process,when the pH value of the solution was low,Fe^(3+)mainly reacted to form the iron hydroxide precipitate for removal.Increasing the pH value of the solution would cause Fe^(3+)to combine with H_(2)PO_(4)^(-),forming FePO_(4)·2H_(2)O precipitate,leading to a reduction in the phosphorus content of the leaching solution.

文摘Interfacial engineering is crucial for developing high-performance Ni-rich layered cathodes for lithiumion batteries.Here,we introduce an interfacial precipitation(IP)strategy,guided by first-principles calculations,to create a functionally graded cathode during precursor synthesis.Based on thermodynamic principles of bulk insolubility and phase separation kinetics,we achieved the selective precipitation of Co onto the surface of a Ni-rich hydroxide precursor.Upon high-temperature lithiation,this engineered precursor spontaneously forms a unique,bifunctional Co-rich spinel-like layer on the final LiNi_(0.88)Co_(0.06)Mn_(0.06)O_(2)(NCM)cathode.This architecture suppresses detrimental Li/Ni cation mixing and protects the active material.Consequently,the IP-driven NCM cathode demonstrates vastly superior rate capability,delivering 140.8 m A h g^(-1)at 5C,compared to 112.9 mA h g^(-1)for its conventionally prepared counterpart.This enhancement is attributed to significantly lower charge-transfer resistance and faster kinetics.Remarkably,in a full-cell configuration,the IP-driven NCM cathode maintains 81.5%capacity after 1000 cycles at an aggressive 5C rate.This work presents a thermodynamically driven,scalable strategy for designing advanced cathodes with exceptional high-power performance and stability.

文摘Based on reanalysis data from 1979 to 2021,this study explores the spatial distribution of the Southern Indian Ocean Dipole(SIOD)and its individual and synergistic effects with the El Niño-Southern Oscillation(ENSO)on summer precipitation in China.The inverse phase spatial distribution of sea surface temperature anomalies(SSTAs)in the southwest and northeast of the southern Indian Ocean is defined as the SIOD.Positive SIOD events(positive SSTAs in the southwest,negative SSTAs in the northeast)are associated with La Niña events(Central Pacific(CP)type),while negative SIOD events(negative SSTAs in the southwest,positive SSTAs in the northeast)are associated with El Niño events(Eastern Pacific(EP)type).Both SIOD and ENSO have certain impacts on summer precipitation in China.Precipitation in the Yangtze River basin decreases,while precipitation in southern China increases during pure positive SIOD(P_PSIOD)events.During pure negative SIOD(P_NSIOD)events,the changes in precipitation are exactly the opposite of those during P_PSIOD events,which may be due to differences in the cross-equatorial flow in the southern Indian Ocean,particularly in low-level Australian cross-equatorial flow.When positive SIOD and CP-type La Niña events occur simultaneously(PSIOD+La_Niña),precipitation increases in the Yangtze-Huaihe River basin,while it decreases in northern China.When negative SIOD and EP-type El Niño events occur simultaneously(NSIOD+El_Niño),precipitation in the Yangtze-Huaihe River basin is significantly lower than during P_NSIOD events.This is caused by differences in water vapor originating from the Pacific Ocean during different events.

文摘Northeast China(NEC),a critical agricultural and ecological zone,has experienced intensified hydrological variability under global warming,with cascading impacts on food security and ecosystem resilience.This study utilized observational data and two new generation reanalysis products(i.e.,the fifth major global reanalysis produced by ECMWF(ERA5)and the Japanese Reanalysis for Three Quarters of a Century(JRA-3Q))to investigate the shift changes in precipitation in NEC around 2000 and associated water vapor transport.The analysis identified a pivotal interdecadal shift in 1998/99,transitioning from moderate increases(17.5 mm/10 yr during 1980-1998)to accelerated but more variable precipitation growth(85.4 mm/10 yr post-1999).While the mean precipitation during the post-shift period decreased,enhanced anticyclonic circulation amplified moisture divergence over continental NEC,redirecting vapor flux toward coastal regions.Crucially,trajectory analysis demonstrated regime-dependent moisture sourcing:midlatitude westerlies dominated during wet extremes(44% of trajectories in 1998),whereas East Asian monsoon flows prevailed in drought years(36% of trajectories in 2007).The post-1998 period exhibited increased reliance on localized recycling(45%of mid-tropospheric trajectories),reflecting weakened monsoonal inflow.These findings highlight NEC’s growing vulnerability to competing moisture pathways and atmospheric blocking-a dual mechanism that explains rising extremes despite declining mean precipitation.By reconciling dataset discrepancies(ERA5 vs.JRA-3Q trends)and elucidating circulation-precipitation linkages,this work provides actionable insights for climate-resilient agriculture in NEC’s water-stressed ecosystems.

文摘This study investigated the characteristics and mechanisms of summer regional persistent extreme precipitation events(RPEPEs)over South China(SC)modulated by distinct intensity regimes of 10-30-day intraseasonal oscillation(ISO).Diagnostic analyses revealed that the spatiotemporal evolution of RPEPEs exhibits robust phase-locking with the 10-30-day intraseasonal precipitation.By classifying RPEPEs into strong-ISO(SRPEPE)and weak-ISO(WRPEPE)composites based on the amplitude of 10-30-day filtered precipitation,we demonstrate a 14.6%enhancement in peak precipitation intensity during SRPEPEs compared to WRPEPEs.These distinct precipitation regimes are governed by fundamentally different Rossby wave teleconnection patterns over Eurasia.During SRPEPEs,a robust southeastward-propagating 10-30-day Rossby wave train originating from the Barents Sea traverses midlatitude Eurasia,effectively perturbing the northwestern Pacific upper-level circulation and establishing a favorable dynamic environment over SC.In contrast,WRPEPEs are associated with weaker eastward-propagating wave trains constrained along the subtropical jet stream.The horizontal convergence of background moisture driven by 10-30-day winds significantly amplifies lower-tropospheric humidity during SRPEPEs.The thermal advection of background temperature by 10-30-day geostrophic winds enhances baroclinic instability and vertical motion,intensifying precipitation under these moisture conditions.

文摘Rainfall input errors are a major source of uncertainty in flood forecasting,and merging multi-source precipitation data is essential for improving accuracy.Traditional merging methods often prioritize precipitation magnitude enhancements while overlooking event detection and false alarms.To address these limitations,this study developed a precipitation integration framework that combines machine learning classification-plus-regression models with Bayesian model averaging(BMA).Three machine learning algorithms-categorical boosting(CatBoost),light gradient boosting machine(LightGBM),and random forest(RF)-were used to improve precipitation event detection.The framework includes spatial unification of raw satellite products using bilinear interpolation,bias correction through classification-plus-regression models,and final merging via a seasonal-scale BMA model.The method integrated GSMaP,IMERG,and PERSIANN satellite precipitation products,with ground observations used for model training(2001-2014)and independent validation(2015-2020)in the Upper Ganjiang River Basin,China.Results showed that the framework significantly enhanced precipitation estimation accuracy and detection capability.LightGBM-based integration exhibited superior detection performance(FAR=0.08,CSI=0.86),while RF-based integration achieved the highest overall accuracy(RMSE=4.67,CC=0.92).Seasonal variations in BMA weights underscored the need to account for seasonal characteristics of precipitation products.Additionally,accuracy improvements were observed across all rainfall categories,especially for heavy rainstorms.The seasonal-scale BMA fusion has combined the strengths of individual corrections and further enhanced precipitation estimation.This research offers a robust method for generating accurate rainfall inputs,providing valuable support for hydrological modeling and flood forecasting applications.

文摘Using multi-source reanalysis data,this study examines the relationship between the tropical Pacific-Atlantic SST Dipole Mode(TPA-DM)and summer precipitation in North China(NCSP)on the interannual timescale during the period of 1979-2022.The results show that the TPA-DM,the dominant pattern of interannual variability in the tropical Pacific and Atlantic regions,exhibits a significant negative correlation with NCSP.The positive phase of TPA-DM induces subsidence over the Maritime Continent through a zonal circulation pattern,which initiates a Pacific-Japan-like wave train along the East Asian coast.The circulation anomalies lead to moisture deficits and convergence subsidence over North China,leading to below-normal rainfall.Further analysis reveals that cooler SST in the Southern Tropical Atlantic facilitates the persistence of the TPA-DM by stimulating the anomalous Walker circulation associated with wind-evaporation-SST-convection feedback.

文摘The northeastern permafrost region of China is one of the most vulnerable areas to climate warming in midlatitude areas.Despite this,the specific pathways of water vapor circulation and transport in this area remain poorly understood.Additionally,there is ongoing debate on whether the oxygen isotope of precipitation(δ^(18)O_(p))is primarily influenced by the temperature or the precipitation amount effects.Tree-ring samples were collected from various sites and tree species across the region,and 12 stable oxygen isotopes(δ18Oc)series constructed to investigate the water vapor signals embedded within.Our findings revealed consistentδ18Oc variations across different sites and species,reflecting relative humidity signals during the growing season(June to September)(r=−0.764,P<0.001,n=40).By applying an improved model to simulateδ^(18)O_(p),a“temperature effect”was identified.Bothδ18Oc andδ^(18)O_(p) provided valuable insights into the regional water vapor circulation,withδ18Oc offering a stronger climate signal.A binary linear regression model further revealed thatδ^(18)O_(p) had a greater influence onδ18Oc than relative humidity.The regional climate is primarily driven by the East Asian summer monsoon and large-scale water vapor circulation associated with the El Niño-Southern Oscillation.Because of future warming and drying trends,trees in this region are expected to face increasing drought stress.

文摘Microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation(MICP)is an eco-friendly technology for soil improvement.Although numerous experiments have been conducted to solidify sand foundations using MICP,the mechanisms by which grain interfacial morphologies influencethe MICP process remain unclear.This study utilized 3D-printed flowcells with different boundary morphologies to investigate the effects of interfacial morphologies on the MICP process.CaCO_(3)precipitation characteristics were investigated through microscopic observation and image quantificationanalysis.The results indicate that low flowvelocities near the interface promote bacterial accumulation due to reduced hydrodynamic shear forces.Rough interfaces,compared to smooth ones,enhance bacterial adsorption owing to the larger regions of low flowvelocity,increased surface area,and the formation of local eddies,which promote greater CaCO_(3)precipitation.Compared to the regions away from the interface,a higher abundance of small CaCO_(3)crystals is observed near the interface because of the high urease activity from bacteria and the reduced shear-induced entrainment due to the low flowvelocity.Besides,larger crystals also preferentially precipitate in proximity to interfaces as the low flowvelocity enhances crystal growth according to the particle attachment theory.The presence of rough interfaces further reduces flowvelocities,leading to the precipitation of larger and more densely packed CaCO_(3)crystals.Therefore,rough interfaces promote the microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation.This work is expected to enhance the understanding of microbially induced calcium carbonate precipitation characteristics on solid surfaces such as soil grains and contribute to the optimization of MICP applications.

文摘This study investigated the impacts of key parameters in CAM6's deep convection and cloud physics schemes on the simulation of summer-mean precipitation over East Asia through conducting perturbed parameter ensemble(PPE)experiments.Utilizing the experimental platform of CAM6,a suite of 128 PPE simulations spanning 19792014 were generated through simultaneously perturbing 12 selected parameters.Using EOF analysis,this study firstly extracted the first two leading modes of the precipitation simulation biases.The authors further pinpointed the most critical parameters that have the most influential effects on the precipitation simulation biases,through conducting generalized linear model analysis.The first leading mode of precipitation simulation biases is primarily influenced by parameters from the cloud physics scheme,including the linear effects of dcs and eii,and the nonlinear effect of rhminl*dcs.These parameters influence the simulated total precipitation(PrecT)mainly by altering the large-scale precipitation(PrecL).The second leading mode is predominantly governed by the convection scheme parameter dmpdz,reflecting a competition between the changes in convective precipitation(PrecC)and PrecL in response to variations in dmpdz.An increase in dmpdz induces decreased PrecC and increased PrecL in East Asia,and both of the changes collectively shape the ultimate PrecT response to the adjusted dmpdz.Lastly,it is noteworthy that the nonlinear effect due to the interaction among parameters warrants attention when concurrently adjusting multiple parameters,and the precipitation biases from the PPE simulations resemble those identified through EOF analysis on the AMIP simulations,implying our findings may provide potential reference for other AGCMs.

文摘Global land monsoon precipitation(GLMP)is highly sensitive to changes in interhemispheric thermal contrast(ITC).Amplified interhemispheric asymmetries of GLMP due to enhanced ITC driven by high-level anthropogenic emissions are expected to simultaneously increase the probability of regional floods and droughts,threatening ecosystems within global terrestrial monsoon regions and the freshwater supply for billions of residents in these areas.In this study,the responses of GLMP to the evolution of ITC toward the carbon neutrality goal are assessed using multimodel outputs from a new model intercomparison project(CovidMIP).The results show that the Northern Hemisphere-Southern Hemisphere(NH-SH)asymmetry of GLMP in boreal summer weakens during the 2040s,as a persistent reduction in well-mixed greenhouse gas(WMGHG)emissions leads to a downward trend in the ITC after 2040.At the same time,the reduction in WMGHG emissions dampens the Eastern Hemisphere-Western Hemisphere(EH-WH)asymmetry of GLMP by inducing La Niña-like cooling and enhancing moisture transport to Inner America.The resulting increases in land monsoon precipitation(LMP)may alleviate drought under the global warming scenario by about 19%-25%and 7%-9%in the WH and SH monsoon regions,respectively.However,a persistent reduction in aerosol emissions in Asia will dominate the increases in LMP in this region until the mid-21st century,and these increases may be approximately 23%-60%of the growth under the global warming scenario.Our results highlight the different rates of response of aerosol and WMGHG concentrations to the carbon neutrality goal,leading to various changes in LMP at global and regional scales.

文摘Northeast China serves as an important crop production region.Accurately forecasting summer precipitation in Northeast China(NEC-PR)has been a challenge due to its wide range of time scales influenced by varying climatic conditions.This study presents a scale separation hybrid statistical model with recurrent neural network(SS-RNN)to predict the summer monthly NEC-PR.The SS-RNN model decomposes the multiple scales of the NEC-PR into several spatiotemporal intrinsic mode functions covering annual to decadal time scales.This strategy provides a way to derive appropriate predictors and establish predictive models for the primary spatial modes of the NEC-PR at various time scales.Our results demonstrate substantial improvements by the SS-RNN model in predicting the summer monthly NEC-PR as compared with dynamic models,particularly in predicting the spatial pattern of the NEC-PR.In this paper we take August,the month of the highest NEC-PR,to assess our model skill.Independent forecasts of the August NEC-PR over the period 2021–24 achieve significant spatial anomaly correlation coefficients,reaching a maximum value of 0.83.Additional verifications by station observations show that the model hits most station anomalies,achieving a mean predictive skill score of 90.

文摘Precipitation nowcasting is of great importance for disaster prevention and mitigation.However,precipitation is a complex spatio-temporal phenomenon influenced by various underlying physical factors.Even slight changes in the initial precipitation field can have a significant impact on the future precipitation patterns,making the nowcasting of short-term high-resolution precipitation a major challenge.Traditional deep learning methods often have difficulty capturing the long-term spatial dependence of precipitation and are usually at a low resolution.To address these issues,based upon the Simpler yet Better Video Prediction(SimVP)framework,we proposed a deep generative neural network that incorporates the Simple Parameter-Free Attention Module(SimAM)and Generative Adversarial Networks(GANs)for short-term high-resolution precipitation event forecasting.Through an adversarial training strategy,critical precipitation features were extracted from complex radar echo images.During the adversarial learning process,the dynamic competition between the generator and the discriminator could continuously enhance the model in prediction accuracy and resolution for short-term precipitation.Experimental results demonstrate that the proposed method could effectively forecast short-term precipitation events on various scales and showed the best overall performance among existing methods.

文摘Groundwater level(GWL)is a key indicator used to accurately assess groundwater resources and form the foundation for ef-fective groundwater management.This paper integrates a Gate Recurrent Unit(GRU)model with a Multi-head Self-attention mechan-ism(MSAM-GRU)to simulate GWLs in both confined and unconfined aquifers simultaneously.The model innovatively captures the lag times between GWLs in the unconfined aquifer and precipitation,as well as between GWLs in the confined aquifer and the upper aquifer.We have assessed the effectiveness of the proposed model using a case study in the Beijing Plain,China from January 2005 to December 2020.With the consideration of lag times,the results indicated that the MSAM-GRU model exhibits a maximum 67%and 73%reduction in RMSE compared to the Attention mechanism-GRU(AM-GRU)and GRU model,respectively.MSAM-GRU model exhibited a 31%reduction in RMSE and a 0.12 increase in R^(2) compared to the same model that do not account for lag time.In Region I,the shortest lag time of GWL in the unconfined aquifer was two months,while that in the confined aquifer was three months,indicating a longer delayed response in the confined aquifer.MSAM-GRU model considering lag time,was then applied to simulate the GWLs in the unconfined aquifer under different scenarios and to analyze whether GWL fluctuations affect subway operations.The simulation res-ults showed that under the scenario 1,the GWL in the unconfined aquifer would rise above the depth of subway station floor,threaten-ing the operation of subways.This study can provide reliable technical support for the accurate simulation of GWLs in multi-aquifer systems.
