2017, 36(7): 32-38. doi: 10.1007/s13131-017-1080-5
Abstract:
As rain drops change the radiation and scattering characteristic of the oceans and the atmosphere, the wind speed measuring by spaceborne remote sensors under rainy conditions remains challenging for years. On the basis of a microwave radiometer (RM)...
A numerical simulation of latent heating within Typhoon Molave

Characterization of iron diagenesis in marine sediments using refined iron speciation and quantized iron(Ⅲ)-oxide reactivity: a case study in the Jiaozhou Bay, China
TAO Jing, MA Weiwei, ZHU Maoxu, LI Tie, YANG Rujun
2017, 36(7): 48-55. doi: 10.1007/s13131-016-1083-2
Abstract:
As a case study, refined iron (Fe) speciation and quantitative characterization of the reductive reactivity of Fe (Ⅲ) oxides are combined to investigate Fe diagenetic processes in a core sediment from the eutrophic Jiaozhou Bay. The results show that...

A backscattering model for a stratified seafloor
YU Shengqi, LIU Baohua, YU Kaiben, YANG Zhiguo, KAN Guangming
2017, 36(7): 56-65. doi: 10.1007/s13131-017-1084-1
Abstract:
In order to predict the bottom backscattering strength more accurately, the stratified structure of the seafloor is considered. The seafloor is viewed as an elastic half-space basement covered by a fluid sediment layer with finite thickness. On the b...
Use of portable X-ray fluorescence in the analysis of surficial sediments in the exploration of hydrothermal vents on the Southwest Indian Ridge
LIAO Shili, TAO Chunhui, LI Huaiming, ZHANG Guoyin, LIANG Jin, YANG Weifang
2017, 36(7): 66-76. doi: 10.1007/s13131-017-1085-0
Abstract:
Hydrothermal plumes released from the eruption of sea floor hydrothermal fluids contain large amounts of ore-forming materials. They precipitate within certain distances from the hydrothermal vent. Six surficial sediment samples from the Southwest In...
The difference analysis of physical-mechanical properties of sediments in the central South Yellow Sea and Zhe-Min coastal area in China
XU Yuanqin, LI Ping, LI Peiying, DU Jun, LIU Lejun, GAO Wei, LIU Jie
2017, 36(7): 77-85. doi: 10.1007/s13131-017-1000-8
Abstract:
The difference analysis of physical-mechanical properties of muddy sediments is made in the central South Yellow Sea and the Zhe-Min (Zhejiang Province to Fujian Province of China) coastal area. The results show that sediments in the two regions are ...
