Trend Prediction of Seismicity in Lower Reaches of Yangtze River – Yellow Sea (Y-Y) Seismic Belt in 2011-2020

چکیده
In this study, seismic activity trend of lower reaches of Yangtze River – Yellow Sea (Y-Y) seismic belt during 2011-2020 is predicted based on statistic analysis of historical earthquake data and seismic activity analysis of recent mid-strong earthquakes occurred in this area. Three potential seismic risk zones are indicated where the destructive earthquakes might occur which will cause damages in that area. The three zones and the estimated magnitudes of potential earthquakes are: 1) southern sags of Southern Yellow sea and coastal regions, Ms ≥ 6; 2) Yangtze estuary and its eastern sea area, Ms ≥ 5; 3) areas along Changshu city to Taicang city, Ms ≥ 5. Seismic parametric study of that area is performed to support our conclusions.

Influence of tiller heterogeneity on yield components of rice grown under different nitrogen regimes
Increase in rice yield under excessive nitrogen (N) supply is negligible, hence it is necessaryto analyze the limiting factors via yield components. The present study was carried out during2014 and 2015 growing seasons in order to quantify the yield componenents of different typesof tiller at various N levels. Tillers were divided into three different types (superior, mediumand inferior) based ...
متن کاملCharacteristics of Buried Paleo-channels in the Western South Yellow Sea during the Late Last Glaciation
Original scientific paper Studies on the evolution of paleo-channels in coastal areas are important for submarine engineering construction and to reveal changes in the global paleoenvironment. Thus, to explore the characteristics of paleo-channels during the late Last Glaciation in the western South Yellow Sea, digital terrain analysis method and ArcGis river extraction function were employed, ...

Wheat–cotton double cropping practices on a large scale in cotton belt of the Yellow RiverValley and the Yangtze River Valley in China. Field experiments were conducted to determinethe effects of wheat–cotton double cropping on cotton biomass accumulation and yieldformation during 2011/12 and 2012/13 growing seasons. Two cotton cultivars, Siza 3 (mid–latematurity) and CCRI 50 (early maturity), ...
متن کاملVariations of Runoff and Sediment Load in the Middle and Lower Reaches of the Yangtze River, China (1950-2013)
On the basis of monthly runoff series obtained in 1950-2013 and annual sediment load measured in 1956--2013 at five key hydrological stations in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River basin, this study used the Mann-Kendall methods to identify trend and abrupt changes of runoff and sediment load in relation to human activities. The results were as follows: (1) The annual and flood se...

The proximate composition, amino acids and fatty acids composition in the muscle of wild, inshore and offshore cage-cultured large yellow croaker, Pseudosciaena crocea (Richardson, 1846), were determined to identify nutritional differences. Wild fish groups showed highest content of moisture and crude protein, but the lowest lipid content. Offshore cage-cultured fish showed significantly higher...
