In this article, we review our previous research for spatial and temporal characterizations of the San Andreas Fault (SAF) at Parkfield, using the fault-zone trapped wave (FZTW) since the middle 1980s. Parkfield, California has been taken as a scientific seismic experimental site in the USA since the 1970s, and the SAF is the target fault to investigate earthquake physics and forecasting. More than ten types of field experiments (including seismic, geophysical, geochemical, geodetic and so on) have been carried out at this experimental site since then. In the fall of 2003, a pair of scientific wells were drilled at the San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth (SAFOD) site; the main-hole (MH) passed a ～200-m-wide low-velocity zone (LVZ) with highly fractured rocks of the SAF at a depth of ～3.2 km below the wellhead on the ground level (Hickman et al., 2005; Zoback, 2007; Lockner et al., 2011). Borehole seismographs were installed in the SAFOD MH in 2004, which were located within the LVZ of the fault at ～3-km depth to probe the internal structure and physical properties of the SAF. On September 282004, a M6 earthquake occurred ～15 km southeast of the town of Parkfield. The data recorded in the field experiments before and after the 2004 M6 earthquake provided a unique opportunity to monitor the co-mainshock damage and post-seismic heal of the SAF associated with this strong earthquake. This retrospective review of the results from a sequence of our previous experiments at the Parkfield SAF, California, will be valuable for other researchers who are carrying out seismic experiments at the active faults to develop the community seismic wave velocity models, the fault models and the earthquake forecasting models in global seismogenic regions.

现代公民教育是指高校不断适应国家及经济社会发展要求,为将大学生培养成具有公民意识、公民精神和公民能力的合格“社会人”,而有目标、有计划、有组织开展的一系列课堂教学、宣传引导、咨询服务及实践训练等教育活动的总称。新时代民办高校现代公民教育应包含法治教育、道德传承、情感引导、规则内化、技能培养和观念创新六个维度。目前一些民办高校存在公民教育处于边缘地位、公民教育缺乏系统设计、公民实践教育严重不足、公民教育创新发展滞后等问题。民办高校应加大资源投入力度,提高公民教育地位;加强学校顶层设计,健全公民教育结构;注重
房价与人口的关系是人文经济地理学研究的热点领域,本文选取长江三角洲地区作为研究区域,利用区域内41个城市11年(2008—2018年)的数据,分别采用差分GMM模型及LSDVC法,从整体和分组的层面分析城市房价与生育率的关系。整体模拟结果表明,城市房价上涨的速度对于生育率有着显著的负向作用:房价上涨得越快,生育率下降得越快。同时,以房价收入比衡量的居民购房能力对生育率也有着显著的影响,居民购房能力

通过对长武黄土塬区不同林龄苹果林地下0～20 m深剖面土壤湿度及土壤水氯离子浓度测定,定量分析了黄土塬区苹果种植对厚深黄土剖面土壤水分及地下水补给的影响。结果表明:随着林龄增加,苹果林地深剖面土壤水分由浅及深逐年降低,深层土壤储水量呈倒"S"曲线趋势下降,27龄之后进入稳定期。丰水年份形成的活塞流是黄土塬区深层渗漏以及地下水补给的主导方式,农田下地下水年均潜在补给量为30.2 mm,占年均降水量的
人类发展史是一部开拓创新的历史,也是同疫病不断抗衡的战斗史。本次突如其来的新冠肺炎疫情是世界各国共同面临的重大挑战,各国在抗击疫情的过程中守望相助,展现出命运相连、心意相牵的深情厚谊。全球共同抗疫的事实表明,人类是休戚与共的安全共同体、风月同天的责任共同体、唇齿相依的情感共同体、天人合一的生态共同体。要想打赢这场疫情防控战,世界各国必须同心协力,联结成为休戚与共的人类命运共同体。
为研究变截面方形刚架的局部应力,采用理论和试验相结合的方法,对变截面方形刚架进行测试分析。采用理论分析和电测实验分别确定了T形框截面上的正应力和切应力,进一步确定了截面中性轴的位置,试验验证了T形框存在较小的扭转效应;通过理论分析和电测试验比较了工字形框凹槽中线处和腹板中点处扭转切应力的差异,结果表明其扭转切应力相同;分析了截面上下翼缘的弯曲正应力和扭转正应力,结果表明工字形框翼缘的扭转正应力为零。

随着生活质量的提高,人们也提高了对于烟草品质方面的要求。在烟草种植过程中,光照、温度和湿度是烟草生长的重要影响因素,掌握烟草生长的环境条件,从而进行合理调控,成为生产优质烟草的关键。基于51单片机为核心设计一款能够对烟草生长环境进行信息检测的系统。具有检测烟草周围生长环境数据的功能,包括光照强度、温度和湿度,并当光照强度达到一定阈值时进行计时,通过液晶显示屏实时显示,预计该系统在烟草种植领域中运用,能够具体提高烟草的品质和产量。
