Spatiotemporal Evolution of NPP and Its Influencing Factors in Kunming City Based on the OPGD Model by ZHANG Zhongzhi, ZHAO Junsan, CHEN Guoping, WANG Lin, LIN Yilin, ZHANG Dandan

“…［Results］ 1) The annual mean distribution of vegetation NPP in Kunming City was spatially and temporally heterogeneous, with a distribution pattern higher in the west and lower in the east, and increased significantly at an average annual growth rate of 7.08 g/(m2·a) (C-based). 2) The fragmentation degree of the vegetation landscape increased; the fragmentation degree was mismatched with vegetation NPP in terms of space, and it had a significant negative effect on the spatial and temporal distribution of vegetation NPP. 3) Changes in vegetation NPP were the result of the combined effects of climatic, anthropogenic and topographic factors; the kernel Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (kNDVI), land surface temperature, and vegetation landscape fragmentation had stronger explanatory power than factors such as temperature, precipitation, and slope; and the interactions between the factors better explained the spatial and temporal changes in vegetation NPP. …”

Study on shock wave characteristics of rock fracturing process induced by high-intensity electric detonation with voltage as variable by Ting WANG, Baisheng NIE, Zhehao ZHANG, Yilan ZHANG, Yaoqian LI, Xianfeng LIU, Peng LIU, Song BAO, Qinjie WANG

“…The experimental results show that the increase of voltage leads to a decrease in the wavefront time of the voltage curve, and the decrease rate decreases with the increase of voltage, which leads to the increase of the amplitude of voltage wave pattern and the discharge power of high-strength electric detonation, and the increase of shock wave intensity; the direction of maximum shock wave vibration velocity is horizontally from the inner surface of the rock to the outer surface of the rock, which is the main propagation direction of vibration; the main frequency of the vibration energy of shock wave is 0-10 Hz, and the energy is mainly distributed in the range of 0-1 000 Hz; the increase in voltage increases the peak amplitude of the shock wave spectrum and the peak particle velocity of the vibration curve. …”
