Earthquake Focal Mechanisms in Yunnan and their Inference on the Regional Stress Field

Using the broadband records from a regional permanent network, we determined the focal mechanisms of 174 small and moderate earthquakes (3.4≤ M w≤6.0) from January 2008 to March 2011 in Yunnan, China, by fitting the three‐component waveforms of P and S waves. Results show that the earthquakes predominantly have strike‐slip mechanisms, with occasional normal and very few thrust‐faulting events. Most earthquakes occur in the upper crust above 16 km depth. We then derive the regional distribution of the stress field through a damped linear inversion using the focal mechanisms obtained in this study and augmented by the solutions in the Global Centroid Moment Tensor (GCMT) catalog and in Xu et al. (2010). Inversion results suggest that the entire region is predominantly under a strike‐slip faulting regime. Orientations of both maximum and minimum principle axes exhibit a clockwise rotational pattern. The axes of maximum compression are oriented roughly north–south, with a gradual change across the region from trending northwest–southeast in the South China block to trending northeast–southwest in the Indo‐China block. This pattern is consistent with the surface horizontal velocity derived from geodetic observations. Localized normal faulting stress regions are observed in the Tengchong volcanic zone and in the Qiao‐Jia segment of the Xianshuihe–Xiaojiang fault zone.

Critical Care Nurse Readers: Our Inspiration and Design Driving Force

was e-mailed to all AACN members. Most (61%) of the respondents identified themselves as bedside/staff nurses and 38% reported that they have been AACN members for longer than 10 years. Readers provided us with feedback on journal content and format, print and online offerings, CNE tests, and suggested changes. A second group of approximately 60 AACN volunteers were convened about a month later to offer their appraisals of a variety of redesigned elements such as CCN’s cover, table of contents, features, columns, content formats, and tables and figures.

Volcanic hotspots of the central and southern Andes as seen from space by ASTER and MODVOLC between the years 2000 and 2010

Abstract We examine 150 volcanoes and geothermal areas in the central, southern and austral Andes for thermal anomalies between the years 2000 and 2010 from two different spaceborne sensors: (1) those automatically detected by the MODVOLC algorithm from MODIS; and (2) manually identified hotspots in night-time images from ASTER (Advanced Spaceborne Thermal Emission and Reflection Radiometer). Based on previous work, we expected to find eight volcanoes displaying thermal anomalies (Ubinas, Villarrica, Copahue, Láscar, Llaima, Chaitén, Lonquimay and Chiliques). We document 35 volcanic areas with pixel-integrated temperatures of 4 up to more than 100 K above background in at least two images, and another 16 areas that have questionable hotspots with either smaller anomalies or a hotspot identified in only one image. Most of the thermal anomalies are related to known activity (i.e. lava and pyroclastic flows, growing lava domes, fumaroles, and lakes) while others are of unknown origin or reflect activity at volcanoes that were not thought to have surface activity. A handful of volcanoes exhibit temporal variations in the magnitude and location of their temperature anomalies that can be related to both documented and undocumented pulses of activity. Our survey reveals that low-amplitude volcanic hotspots detectable from space are more common than expected, based on lower spatial resolution data, and that these features could be more widely used to monitor changes in the activity of remote volcanoes. We find no evidence from ASTER or MODVOLC that the thermal anomalies were affected by six earthquakes with M w above 7 in our study area from 2000 to 2010, although the observations may not have been optimal to detect such anomalies.

Ambient Noise Levels in Greece as Recorded at the Hellenic Unified Seismic Network

Abstract We investigate the characteristics of ambient noise across Greece as recorded at the Hellenic Unified Seismic Network (HUSN). Power spectral densities (PSDs) and their corresponding probability density functions (PDFs) have been estimated for 110 broadband seismic stations using the continuous waveform data for a four‐year period from 2007 to 2010. Using PDFs we monitor and show network performance in terms of overall station quality and the level of noise at each site. At high frequencies (>7 Hz), the main source of noise is cultural with strong diurnal variations. Stations with constantly increased noise levels across this band indicate poor vault construction or poor site selection and provide an indication to the network operators for possible structural improvements or even station relocations. The microseismic noise levels show a clear seasonal variation at all stations. Specifically, for the double‐frequency (DF; period range 4–8 s) band, the average noise level differs between stations on the mainland and those located on the islands, reaching a value as high as 10 dB. Furthermore, the DF noise peak is observed at all of the HUSN stations, and it is correlated well with local sea wave height measurements at buoys deployed in the Aegean and the Ionian seas. This indicates that the HUSN seismic network also monitors local sea–weather conditions within a range of a few hundred kilometers. The longer period single‐frequency (SF) band is affected by sea–weather conditions at much longer distances in the North Atlantic. Finally, we calculate the HUSN mode noise model (HMLNM) that represents the highest probability ambient noise level in Greece. This model is a realistic noise threshold for future seismic station installations.

건설기계 시간당작업량(Q) 산정 개선방안 -펌프준설선 작업효율(E)을 중심으로-

국내 공공건설공사 예정가격작성기준에서 제시하는 건설기계의 시간당 작업량(Q)의 중요한 부분을 차지하는 작업효율(E)은 현장여건 등에 따라 차이가 발생하기 때문에 적용기준이 명확해야 한다. 그러나 국내 기준은 정성적인 표현이 사용되며, 이를 판단할 수 있는 기준 또한 포괄적이고 모호하여 설계자의 주관적이고 자의적인 판단에 따라 설계가 이루어지고 있는 실정이다. 본 연구에서는 펌프준설선을 대상으로 국내 외 관련 문헌조사 및 현장실사를 통하여 합리적인 작업효율(E) 제시방법을 제안하고 이로 인해 건설기계의 시간당 작업량 산정방법을 개선하고자 하였다. 문헌조사를 통해 국내기준 또한 일본기준의 형태로 작업효율(E)을 공사구분별, 흙두께, 평면형상, 단면형상, 해상조건 등으로 세분화 시킬 것을 제시하였으며, 이를 판단할 수 있는 기준도 객관화 시킬 수 있는 형태로 개선되어야 할 것을 제시하였다. 또한, 현장조사를 통해 얻어진 산출량을 일본의 예정가격작성기준을 적용하여 계산된 산출량과 비교하여 일본기준의 적정성을 검토하였다. 펌프준설선 (4,476kW)은 배송거리 3,600~6,000m의 시간당 준설량(Q)을 실측하여 표준값인 전동환산(q)을 비교하여, 일본대비 102.3% 수준으로 거의 유사한 결과값을 얻었다. 본 연구를 통해 제시된 각종 자료 및 수치들은 건설기계와 기술의 급속한 발전을 예정가격작성기준에 적용할 수 있는 기초가 될 수 있을 뿐 아니라, 관련 연구의 토대가 될 수 있으리라 기대한다. Although work-efficiency of construction machinery is a critical factor for estimating its workable-quantity perunit time, the efficiency figure table presented in the Poom-Sam that is used for Construction Cost Estimation of public sectors in Korea is very subjective for practical usage. In order to suggest objective work-efficiency table for a Pump-Dredger, domestic and overseas documentary records were investigated and on-going construction sites were also visited. Moreover, actual work quantities collected from the site visits were compared with the ones calculated based on the Standard Measurement Methods used in Japan. The research found that the table can be revised by means of detailing down by several factors, namely project type, depth of soil, undersea-site shape, and condition on the sea for better estimation of its workable-quantity. The research will be the foundation for applying the rapid development of Construction Equipment and technology to the appropriate cost estimations and the ground work of related studies.

On tables of contents and how to recognize them

We present a method for structuring a document according to the information present in its different organizational tables: table of contents, tables of figures, etc. This method is based on a two-step approach that leverages functional and formal (layout-based) kinds of knowledge. The functional definition of organizational table, based on five properties, is used to provide a first solution, which is improved in a second step by automatically learning the form of the table of contents. We also report on the robustness and performance of the method and we illustrate its use in a real conversion case.

Structure Paves the Way to the Semantic Web

The semantic Web, by whatever name it comes to be called, is inevitable. History tells us that as information content grows, so do the mechanisms for organizing and managing it. Over millennia, innovations such as writing systems, alphabetization, pagination, tables of contents, indexes, concordances, reference lookups, classification systems, tables, figures, and statistics have emerged in parallel with content growth.

Dos géneros nuevos de caracoles terrestres (Stylommatophora: Arionacea) de Chile

We describe two new genera of land molluscs found under wet leaf litter in isolated fragments of a secondary native forest at the Hualpén Botanical Park (36 degrees 45'-36 degrees 49' S, 73 degrees 9'-73 degrees 13' W), University of Concepción, Chile. The new taxa are Pichikadi gen.n., of Punctidae, and Chellius gen.n., of Charopidae, with the following new species: Pichikadi hualpensis sp.n., and Chellius piramidalis sp.n. English diagnosis are presented for all taxa, together with an English identification key and English versions of figure captions and table headings. To facilitate subsequent studies and interpretations, we follow recent authors in using mainly shell characters, an approach that has favored the present taxonomic stability of the world's land micromollusca. The diagnosis and observations are complemented with a key for the species of these families inhabiting continental Chile.

Recommended Vapor–Liquid Equilibrium Data. Part 4. Binary Alkanol–Alkene/Alkyne Systems

The recommended vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for binary mixtures of alkanols with alkenes and alkynes have been selected after critical evaluation of all data reported in the open literature up to the end of 2003. The evaluation procedure consisted in combining the thermodynamic consistency tests, data correlation, comparison with enthalpy of mixing data, and comparison of VLE data for various mixtures. The data were correlated with Wilson equation as well as with equation of state appended with chemical term (EoSC) proposed by Góral. The recommended data for 18 systems are presented in the form of individual pages containing tables of data, figures, and auxiliary information. Each page corresponds to one system and contains three isotherms (spaced by at least 15K) and one isobar (preferably at 101.32kPa). Experimental gaps were completed with the predicted data.

Hepatocellular nodules in cirrhosis: focus on diagnostic criteria on liver biopsy. A Western experience.

The spectrum of so-called space-occupying small (0.5-2.5 cm) sizable nodules arising in the cirrhotic liver includes a series of hyperplastic (large regenerative), dysplastic (low- and high-grade dysplastic), and malignant hepatocellular (well-differentiated hepatocellular carcinoma, HCC) nodules. Major progress in their classification and understanding was achieved through image analysis techniques and careful histological dissection of explanted native livers. Needless to say, the actual understanding of their natural history is crucial to a proper histological classification. The differential diagnosis of these hepatocellular nodules is difficult, particularly on biopsy specimens of focal liver lesions revealed by ultrasound (US), taken during the follow-up of cirrhotic patients. In this study we attempted to summarize, on the basis of our experience, essential clinicopathological features useful to distinguish the different nodules on needle biopsy. Synoptic tables of differential diagnosis and figures of elementar lesions, which have to be looked for, are provided. Only the continuous integration of clinical features, image analysis information of pathological findings, and follow-up data allows establishing the autonomy of these polymorphic and controversial entities and the boundaries between them.

Recommended Vapor–Liquid Equilibrium Data. Part 2: Binary Alkanol–Alkane Systems

The recommended vapor–liquid equilibrium (VLE) data for 36 binary systems involving primary, secondary, and tertiary alcohols with n-alkanes and isoalkanes [with the exception of 1-alkanols–n-alkane systems, which were presented in Part 1 of this series—J. Phys. Chem. Ref. Data 31(3), 702 (2002)] have been obtained after critical evaluation of all data (744 data sets) reported in the open literature up to the middle of 2002. The evaluation procedure consisted in combining the thermodynamic consistency tests, data correlation, comparison with enthalpy of mixing data, and comparison of VLE data for various mixtures. The data were correlated with equations based on local compositions concept as well as with equation of state appended with chemical term (EoSC) proposed by Góral. The recommended data are presented in the form of sheets containing tables of data, figures and auxiliary information. Each sheet corresponds to one system and contains three isotherms (spaced by at least 15 K) and one isobar (preferably at 101.32 kPa). Experimental gaps were completed with the predicted data.
