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 ...

A systematic review of 20 years of crisis and disaster research: Trends and progress
Abstract The field of crisis and disaster studies has proliferated over the past two decades. Attention is bound to grow further as the world negotiates the prolonged challenges of the Covid‐19 pandemic. In this review, we provide an overview of the main foci, methods, and research designs employed in the crisis and disaster research fields in the ...

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 ...

在前面我们知道了为什么可能运用加卸载响应比方法做地震预测,加卸载响应比方法不仅有坚实的理论基础,而且为实验室试验、数值计算以及过去的震例检测所证实。那么,在实际运用中,它真的有效吗? 尹祥础课题组将它用于地震中期预测已经取得了较好的效果,他们成功地预测过一些国内的地震,还成功地预测过一些国外的地震(美国,日本,土耳其等)。下面来看一些用加卸载响应比LURR预报地震成功的实例。 中国大陆: 早在1980年代后期,尹祥础课题组就用加卸载响应比方法对中外逾百个震例,从有感地震的4级~8 ...

我们在中科院力学所非线性连续介质力学开放实验室(LNM)材料试验机(MTS)上做了岩石压缩破坏的加卸载实验,得到了以应变为响应(即弹性常数的倒数为响应率)的加卸载响应比。实验结果与理论以及实际地震中的加卸载响应比相一致,即加卸载响应比在临近破坏前上升。故此 ...

基于振动台试验,探讨了速度脉冲对综合管廊动力响应的影响,重点阐明了地震动速度脉冲特性如何影响综合管廊和周围土壤的地震行为。选取具有速度脉冲的实际地震动记录和合成的与实际地震动记录具有相同反应谱的无速度脉冲地震动时程,同时将其加速度幅值分别调整为0.10g,0.20g,0.30g作为输入,设计并开展了地震动纵向输入下的综合管廊振动台试验。基于试验数据分析了场地土体的地震反应变化规律、综合管廊结构的地震响应特征和土-结构相互作用效应。研究结果表明:① 土体在连续试验加载下结构发生变化 ...

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 ...
