Leave-one-out cross validation is used to determine the statistical inference method. To minimize absolute average errors and error mean squares,stratified Kriging（SK） interpolation is applied to DIN and ordinary Kriging（OK） interpolation is applied to PO4-P.Ten percent of the sites is adjusted by considering their impact on the change in deviations in DIN and PO4-P interpolation and the resultant effect on areas with different water quality grades. Thus, seven redundant historical sites are removed. Seven historical sites are distributed in areas with water quality poorer than Grade IV at the north and south branches of the Changjiang（Yangtze River） Estuary and at the coastal region north of the Hangzhou Bay. Numerous sites are installed in these regions. The contents of various elements in the waters are not remarkably changed, and the waters are mixed well. Seven sites that have been optimized and removed are set to water with quality Grades III and IV. Optimization and adjustment of unrestricted areas show that the optimized and adjusted sites are mainly distributed in regions where the water quality grade undergoes transition.Therefore, key sites for adjustment and optimization are located at the boundaries of areas with different water quality grades and seawater.展开更多

The data are obtained in the period from the beginning of the observation to the November of 2005. On the basis of data processing, we analyze the power spectrum density of coordinate component noise at each site and calculate the spectral indexes manifesting the noise property of each component. The spectral indexes indicate that for most sites, the noise of time series of each coordinate component can be addressed by the model of white noise ＋ flicker noise; and for a small amount of sites, it can be described by the model of white noise ＋ flicker noise ＋ random walk noise. We also quantitatively estimate each noise component in the model by using the criterion of maximum likelihood estimation. The result shows that the white noise in the time series of GPS site coordinates does not constitute the main part of noise. Therefore, the error estimation of site movement parameters is usually too small, or too optimistic if we consider the white noise only. Correspondingly, if this factor is not fully considered in explaining these movement parameters, it might mislead the readers.展开更多

The relevant hardware and software of the system are designed to monitor the well site environment, thus preventing downhole accidents. The system uses the wireless ZigBee technology as the transmission mode, and combines the virtual instrument technology to design the upper machine interface. The test results show that the system can monitor the outdoor environment in real time. When the environmental parameters exceed the set value, the corresponding location of the LabVIEW interface will send an alarm.展开更多

Through the air monitoring of environmental protection projects, the actual operation value of environmental protection project construction can be well improved. However, there are still many external influencing factors in the field work of air monitoring, which have a negative impact on the quality of the overall monitoring work. Therefore, it is necessary to actively do a good job in the air monitoring of environmental protection projects. So as to ensure that the results of air monitoring can reflect the actual conditions of the atmosphere in the region, actively carry out the air monitoring and control work of environmental protection projects, enable the air monitoring work to be carried out to the maximum extent, and provide more help for the value of environmental projects. However, in the current air monitoring work of environmental protection projects, there are various problems, which have brought serious adverse effects to the overall air monitoring work of the project. Therefore, it is necessary to pay attention to the attention of relevant quality control staff, and to improve the quality of the air monitoring site of environmental protection projects.展开更多

The field monitoring results indicate the following. （1） Convergence displacement of rock surface increases with time continuity and shows surrounding rock＇s intense theological behavior. The original support scheme cannot control the large deformation and strongly theological behavior; （2） Without backfilling, the U-shaped steel support begins to bear load after erecting for 4-7 days and increases rapidly in the first 30 days. The U-shaped steel support at the right shoulder and top of roadway bears a larger force and the left side and shoulder bears a smaller force; （3） The stress of bolt increasing over time and at the right shoulder of roadway has larger growth and value. The mechanism of rock deformation and the failure and strata behavior in water-rich soft rock roadway are revealed based on the results of the measured relaxation zone of surrounding rock, measured stresses, and the rock mechanics tests.展开更多

Waliguan of remote continental area of China. High temporal resolved data were obtained using automated mercury analyzer RA-915^＋. Results showed that the overall hourly mean Hg^0 concentrations in Mt. Waliguan were 1.7±1.1 ng/m3 in summer and 0.6±0.08 ng/m^3 in winter. The concentration in Yangtze Delta regional site was 5.4±4.1 ng/m^3, which was much higher than those in Waliguan continental background area and also higher than that found in North America and Europe rural areas. In Beijing urban area the overall hourly mean Hg^0 concentrations were 8.3±3.6 ng/m^3 in winter, 6.5±5.2 ng/m^3 in spring, 4.9±3.3 ng/m^3 in summer, and 6.7±3.5 ng/m^3 in autumn, respectively, and the concentration was 13.5±7.1 ng/m^3 in Guangzhou site. The mean concentration reached the lowest value at 14：00 and the highest at 02：00 or 20：00 in all monitoring campaigns in Beijing and Guangzhou urban areas, which contrasted with the results measured in Yangtze Delta regional site and Mr. Waliguan. The features of concentration and diurnal variation of Hg^0 in Beijing and Guangzhou implied the importance of local anthropogenic sources in contributing to the high Hg^0 concentration in urban areas of China. Contrary seasonal variation patterns of Hg^0 concentration were found between urban and remote sites. In Beijing the highest Hg^0 concentration was in winter and the lowest in summer, while in Mt. Waliguan the Hg^0 concentration in summer was higher than that in winter. These indicated that different processes and factors controlled Hg^0 concentration in urban, regional and remote areas.展开更多

The fluorescent signal of resorufin reduced by planktonic cells and microorganisms of biofilm showed linearity, indicating its feasibility to monitor biofouling in a RO system. For the application of the method to the lab-scale RO system, the injection concentration of resazurin and the injection flow rate were optimized. Biofilm on RO membranes continuously operated in a lab-scale RO system was estimated by resorufin fluorescence under optimized detection condition. As a result,resorufin fluorescence on RO membrane showed a significant increase in which the permeability of RO system decreased by 30.48%. Moreover, it represented the development of biofilm as much as conventional biofilm parameters such as adenosine triphosphate,extracellular polymeric substances, and biofilm thickness. The proposed method could be used as a sensitive and low-cost technology to monitor biofouling without autopsy of membranes.展开更多
