Evaluating the impact of caribou habitat restoration on predator and prey movement
Abstract Fragmentation of the boreal forest by linear features, including seismic lines, has destabilized predator–prey dynamics, resulting in the decline of woodland caribou (Rangifer tarandus caribou) populations. Restoration of human‐altered habitat has therefore been identified as a critical management tool for achieving self‐sustaining woodland ...

Abstract During the Great East Japan Earthquake, many people experienced the loss of family and friends, among other traumatic events. This study sought to clarify the impact of the loss of significant close others on posttraumatic stress symptoms (PTSS), as well as the factors associated with PTSS, among individuals who experienced the loss of ...

Abstract The 2011 Tohoku earthquake and tsunami in Japan was an extraordinarily stressful incident that caused harmful psychological reactions, such as posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD), among affected individuals. However, a proportion of exposed individuals experienced posttraumatic growth (PTG), characterized by a noticeable degree of personal ...

首先基于有限断层破裂下的运动学震源模型,对比验证了三维谱元法对于近场地震动的模拟精度。 进而通过含盆地模型与不含盆地的一维水平成层模型的地震动强度之间和放大系数分布特征之间的对比,详细研究了直下型断层的破裂速度对盆地地震效应的影响。结果表明,盆地的存在会显著改变近断层地震动的分布特征,同时盆地内不同分量强地震动的分布特征变化较大。断层破裂速度对盆地地震效应影响显著,随破裂速度的增大盆地地震动强度逐渐增加,但不同分量上地震动强度的增加速率显著不同,受盆地效应的影响,放大系数表现出与强地震动不同的分布特征 ...

硬管母线连接的1000 kV复合外套避雷器和互感器地震模拟振动台试验研究
为研究地震作用下硬管母线连接的特高压复合外套电气设备的地震效应,依据特高压电气设备抗震试验方法进行了硬管母线连接的1 000 kV复合外套避雷器和互感器组成的互连结构体系的地震模拟振动台试验。通过白噪声扫频及标准时程波地震试验,测定了设备的自振频率以及关键部位的应变、加速度响应。试验结果表明:互连结构体系沿管母轴线方向的耦合效应强于垂直管母轴线方向;输入目标峰值加速度越大,互连结构体系的非线性特性越明显;沿管母轴线方向的地震波激励引起的扭转振动中互感器设备的地震响应较为显著 ...
