Science Needs for Sea-Level Adaptation Planning: Comparisons among Three U.S. Atlantic Coastal Regions

To identify priority information needs for sea-level rise planning, we conducted workshops in Florida, North Carolina, and Massachusetts in the summer of 2012. Attendees represented professionals from five stakeholder groups: federal and state governments, local governments, universities, businesses, and nongovernmental organizations. Over 100 people attended and 96 participated in breakout groups. Text analysis was used to organize and extract most frequently occurring content from 16 total breakout groups. The most frequent key words/phrases were identified among priority topics within five themes: analytic tools, communications, land use, ecosystem management, and economics. Diverse technical and communication tools were identified to help effectively plan for change. In many communities, planning has not formally begun. Attendees sought advanced prediction tools yet simple messaging for decision-makers facing politically challenging planning questions. High frequency key words/phrases involved fine spatial scales and temporal scales of less than 50 years. Many needs involved communications and the phrase “simple messaging” appeared with the highest frequency. There was some evidence of geographic variation among regions. North Carolina breakout groups had a higher frequency of key words/phrases involving land use. The results reflect challenges and tractable opportunities for planning beyond current, geophysically brief, time scales (e.g., election cycles and mortgage periods).     

全天候冷补沥青性能特性研究

本文研究了冷补沥青与基质沥青的基本性能和粘度的变化,进而得出冷补沥青的粘温曲线,指出冷补沥青的最佳拌合温度;基于沥青与集料的粘附力、液体表面张力理论以及沥青与集料接触角理论,通过接触角分析仪和表面张力仪试验测定冷补沥青与集料接触角、冷补沥青表面张力等数据,应用冷补沥青与集料的粘附功来定量地评价两者间的粘附性程度;为有效控制柴油型全天候冷补沥青的质量,根据大量试验结果和分析,制定出冷补沥青性能特性指标.

基站式道路气象站布设原理和方法

通过分析国内道路气象站的布设情况,针对"密布式"道路气象站浪费资金和能源等缺点,提出基站式道路气象站.基站式道路气象站是一种低成本的道路气象站布设方法,它能优化道路气象站布设,为合理布设(位置、数量与配置)道路气象站提供定量参考.本文针对国内尚未应用"基站式"道路气象站布设方案的情况,对基站式道路气象站的布设原理和方法做了详细的介绍,对于国内迅速发展的道路气象信息服务,节约资金和能源都有着重要的启发和借鉴意义.
