The coastal edge of the Northeast Water polynya in spring 1993

Multidisciplinary, marine ecological observations were conducted at the shallow water edge of the Northeast Water in June, 1993. Although variable in size and shape, a small polynya was constantly present at Eskimonaes, at the fast-ice edge of Ingolfsfjord. A shallow stratified layer developed at the water sufface at negative water and air temperatures—an effect of sea ice melting in cold water early in the season. Nutrients were recorded in considerable quantities, although by mid July NO₃ had become depleted. The chlorophyll and phytoplankton maxima at 8–12 m depth had peak values of 2 mg chl a m⁻³, typical for Arctic algal blooms. The phytoplankton included over 90 species and was dominated by the Fragillariopsis group. Zooplankton was poor in biomass and density, but over 23 taxa were found, with the copepods Oithona similis and Pseudocalanus acuspes being numerically dominant. Sedimentation was approximately 0.2 g dry weight m⁻² d⁻¹ and suspended matter concentrations ranged from 4 to 19 mg l⁻¹. The benthos was represented by hard bottom forms only, with a surprisingly dense cover of macrophytes. Juvenile sea urchins (Strongylocentrotus droebachiensis), brittle stars (Ophiocten sericeum) and amphipods were dominant. Higher trophic levels were represented by benthic feeders, such as eiders and walruses. The area observed was more similar to high Arctic fjord ecosystems than to the offshore central Northeast Water polynya.

鲁中山区公路岩石路堑边坡植被自然恢复初步调查

为探讨公路岩石路堑边坡植被的自然恢复效果,为山区公路边坡防护设计和植被恢复设计提供参考,调查了鲁中山区的6条省道和2条国道,得到了边坡的岩石类别、风化程度,以及边坡的建设年限、坡度、坡高和边坡植被的覆盖度与优势物种,并简要分析了植被自然恢复的原因。初步结果显示:(1)花岗岩、闪长岩边坡的植被自然恢复效果远好于石灰岩边坡;(2)黄背草、荩草等为花岗岩和闪长岩边坡的优势物种,而荆条、酸枣等为石灰岩边坡的优势物种。建议:(1)对稳定的花岗岩和闪长岩边坡宜采用不妨碍植被生长的防护型式,实现植被的自然恢复;(2)对石灰岩边坡,宜采用岩石裸露处理,并穴栽灌木进行美化;(3)高速公路建设资金充裕不应成为随意扩大边坡工程防护的理由,将边坡植被自然恢复的理念应用到高速公路边坡设计中非常重要。     

黄土地区公路边坡客土喷播试验研究

陕西黄土地区具有干旱半干旱、半干旱或半湿润的气候特点,土质疏松,公路边坡易被侵蚀。2004年3~9月,禹门口-阎良高速公路采用客土喷播技术,开展了黄土边坡生态恢复试验研究。2004~2006年的观测结果表明,在该地区采取客土喷播技术,能够在公路边坡快速地建立起良好的植被,1年后植被覆盖率可以达到100%。边坡一旦建立植被,只要植物种类配比恰当,植物群落能够保持相对稳定。坡比是影响生态恢复效果的重要因素,有条件的话,宜采用1∶1的边坡。     

近海T形梁桥上部结构极端波浪作用试验

飓风引起的极端波浪是影响近海桥梁结构安全的重要灾种之一,曾在美国墨西哥湾沿岸造成了大量已建低矮跨海桥梁损毁。探究台风波浪对桥梁上部结构的作用机理,发展波浪作用力计算方法,对保证中国近海地区桥梁结构安全具有重要意义。为准确考虑台风极端波浪的频谱特征,使用连续聚焦波作为入射波,开展了不同波幅、峰值频率和净空的模型试验。试验基于Froude准则采用1∶25缩尺比进行设计,研究对象为T形肋梁桥,试验过程中观测了聚焦波作用下T形梁桥受到的水平和竖向波浪作用力。研究结果表明：采用连续聚焦波作为入射波,通过设置合适的聚焦波周期可以避免二次反射波对入射波的污染,确保试验结果的可信性;波浪作用力中包含了低频准静力和高频砰击力,砰击力峰值一般出现在波浪与结构接触的初始阶段;一般情况下波浪作用力随波幅增大而增大,但存在明显的非单调特征;T形梁桥波浪力随净空增大有明显的先减小后增大的趋势,但峰值频率为0.4 Hz的大波幅聚焦波在净空为2.0～3.0 cm时波浪作用力最大;基于试验结果拟合出的波浪力简便估算方法能够有效计算波浪作用力,可为T形梁桥抗波浪设计提供参考。     

Obsolete Maps and Coastal Management: Case Studies from Northwest Ireland

On dynamic coastal sites, subject to rapid and sometimes unpredictable shoreline changes, management problems can be aggravated if legally authoritative maps are obsolete. These difficulties are illustrated by two case studies from County Donegal in northwest Ireland. The first case study outlines the problems that arise where statutory functional area boundaries are based on a near century-old map. The second case study deals with the problems of planning development on a site where a customized map only a few years old has been rendered obsolete by rapid coastal erosion. Other problems are caused by the inappropriate use of maps. Suggestions are made to mitigate the effects of outdated maps.

Challenges and Benefits in the Design of Coastal Walking and Cycling Amenities: Toward a More Integrated Coastal Management Approach

The planning and development of pedestrian and cycling amenities in coastal urban environments is a challenging process because a wide range of policies and considerations must be taken into account. Among these, the concepts of sustainability and more recently, resilience, have been gaining prominence. Green Infrastructure design approaches can integrate aspects of both sustainability and resilience, providing multiple services within single development projects. This study focuses on Dublin and examines a range of amenity projects at various stages of development that relate to the provision of new coastal walking and/or cycle routes. These are initially contextualized at the city level before focusing specifically on challenges and benefits associated with the design and implementation of such projects. Based on our findings, recommendations are made for optimizing the potential of future projects to effectively integrate with other initiatives so as to deliver broader policy objectives. A simple sequential model is presented that should assist developers and decision-makers to take a more integrated, multidisciplinary approach to meeting policy goals when planning and developing coastal amenities. Finally, this is remodeled into a set of considerations that are generally applicable to coastal development proposals of significant scale.

针对我国沿海港口能力供给水平数据跟踪方面长期存在的时效性差、人为统计过程中易出现错漏等诸多问题,分析传统泊位通过能力统计失真的具体原因,提出将泊位利用率作为评价港口服务水平的表征指标,依托地理信息系统(GIS)平台和基于船舶自动识别系统(AIS)等数据耦合的空间拓扑分析,综合考虑空间关系、航速特征、经留时间等影响因素,研发基于AIS大数据的泊位利用率算法模型,并以上海港2019年集装箱泊位利用率为例进行算法验证。结果表明,所提出的泊位利用率算法模型是可信的;提供了一种能够反映客观实际、定量分析判断港口服务水平的技术手段,可为政府部门长期动态监测港口能力与运输需求互动平衡关系,支撑政府部门决策港口发展重点和建设时序,避免空间资源浪费、重复建设、能力过剩等问题提供技术支撑。     

长江口软基围堤施工的加载速率效应

针对长江口某围堤施工软土堆载过程中的稳定性问题,进行不同加载模式下的应力路径试验,分析长江口软黏土的应力-应变关系、结构损伤特性、强度及应变率发展模式,为该围堤工程的施工速率选取及施工过程中的稳定性控制提供技术依据。结果表明:在不考虑固结的前提下,土体的不排水抗剪强度几乎不受加载模式影响;最终强度与达到破坏时的应变大小无关,但与分级加载时间和分级静置时间存在相互作用关系;土体失稳时的应变率与加载速率和静置时间均有一定关系,且加载速率的影响更大;当加荷超过不排水抗剪强度的80%时,或分级最大应变率逐渐偏离加载初期的线性变化,土样濒临破坏。
