Introduction The Department of Earth Sciences in The University of Hong Kong was invited to conduct flowmeter tests in two drillholes installed in the Pak Kong slope as part of the ground investigation for landslides coordinated by Maunsell Geotechnical Services Limited. This report presented the field measurements, data interpretation and findings of the flowmeter tests. 2. About the site and boreholes The site is located at Slope No. 8SW-C/CR175, near Pak Kong Water Treatment Works at Sai Kung (Figures 1 and 2). The site is underlain by bedrock of coarse ash crystal tuff. More information on site geology can be found in the report by Maunsell Geotechnical Services Limited (2005). Two boreholes PH3 and PH4 were drilled by DrilTech Ground Engineering Ltd. Drilling of the holes was carried out using hydraulic rotary drilling rigs with air foam as flushing medium (DrilTech, 2007). The initial diameter of the borehole was 4.5 inch. To enlarge the hole to fit the flowmeter, the holes were reamed by core barrel to increase the diameter to be?. A PVC pipe with 107 mm internal diameter (the lower limit of the diameter which the flowmeter can work) and with 6 mm perforation at 50 mm intervals in a staggered arrangement was installed in each hole (DrilTech, 2007). The PVC pile has screens from 3 m below the top of the hole all the way down to the bottom. Details of the progress of installing PH3 and PH4 are outlined in Table 1. PH4 is located on a relatively flat area on a road side. PH3 is located on the steep slope of a road site. Some details of the two holes are shown in Table 2. The distance between the two drillholes is 47.11 m. Each borehole has fill, saprolite and bedrock. The 3 fill in both drillholes is about 1.80 m. The bedrock is located at about 22.05 m below the ground level (measured by DrillTech) in PH3 and 21.50 m below the ground level in PH4 (DrillTech, 2007). Table 1 Progress of installing PH3 and PH4 Activity PH4 PH3 Start End Start End Drilling March 2 March 16 April 2 April 22 Reaming March 12 April 20 April 27 May 16 Well screen installation April 21 April 24 May ? May ? Well flushing June 29 June 30 June 26 June 28 A trial flowmeter test was carried out in PH4 on May 17. It was then suggested that well development should be conducted in the drillholes after screen installation. Following the installation of a monitoring well or any well for hydraulic-test purposes, it is critical to perform a procedure called well development. The purpose of well development is to ensure removal of fines from the vicinity of the well screen which are created in the drilling processes. This allows free flow of water from the formation into the well. Development of a well should occur as soon as it is practical after installation (USEPA, 1994). Well development is a sophisticated job. If the development process is too vigorous, it may remove fine material beyond the edge of the borehole and then increase artificially the hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer (Fetter, 2001). Figure 3 demonstrates the flushing procedure used in the development of the two drillholes used by DrillTech: 1) Feed compressed air through to base of hole and push the in-situ water out of the hole; 2) Pour normal water into the base of hole and feed compressed air; 3) Continuously repeat the above steps for two to three days until water seeping into the borehole becomes clean. The flushing in the two holes was carried out between June 26 and 29 (Table 1). Figure 4 shows the well structure after the completion of the installation. The ground levels of PH3 and PH4 are 65.94 and 67.07 mPH, respectively. The ground level of PH4 is the same as the level of the surface of the concrete box over the borehole, but 4 ground level of PH3 is lower than level of the surface of the concrete box (Figures 4 and 5). The difference is estimated to be about 0.3 m. All the downhole measurements of this study used the top of the concrete box as the ground level or zero point of the well depth. If the data from PH3 are used to compare with the results from other hydraulic conductivity studies, the difference of 0.3 m should be noted.

Basics of a flowmeter test 3.1 Equipment A borehole flowmeter can be used to measure the ambient (natural) flow in boreholes; it also enables one to determine the flow distribution in the borehole under pumping or injection condition, or so-called stressed well conditions. These data allow to determine relative aquifer hydraulic conductivity as a function of depth or identify fracture locations depending on the type of aquifer as described by Molz et al. (1994). If 5 the average hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer is estimated by a pumping or injection test or any other aquifer tests, the hydraulic conductivity of individual layers or zones can be estimated. The flowmeter type used for this study is heat-pulse flowmeter (Model HFP-2293) with a measuring range of 0.03 to 1.0 gallon/min (or 0.113 to 3.785 L/min). It was produced by Mount Sopris Instrument Co., Inc. USA. The flowmeter is operated by MGXII, a geophysical logging system. The flowmeter measures the direction and rate of vertical flow in the borehole. Accurate measurements require sufficient time between readings for the area around the tool to stabilize. At least three readings are required per interval in order to obtain a reasonably reliable average flow rate. The flowmeter is supplied with PC based software, centralizers and a range of diverters for 4 inch through 8 inch (101.6 mm through 203.2 mm) boreholes. The measurements occur in the probe, and the water flow outside the flowmeter will be blocked by diverters. The flowmeter is of 122 cm in length and 4.1 cm in diameter. Diverters are devises that divert flow in the borehole through a column where the measurement is taken by the tool. The fluctuation of water level in the well during the entire test period should be monitored when the flow is measured by the flowmeter under ambient or stressed flow conditions. The water level information can be used to assist the interpretation of flowmeter data, and under stressed well condition the water level data can be used to estimate the average hydraulic conductivity of the aquifer. For the Pak Kong site, a computer-operated transducer called miniTROLL 9000 produced by In-Situ Inc., USA was used to monitor the water level. Water level was also measured manually from time to time so that the results of the transducer could be cross checked. The manually-measured data can be used as a backup in case that the transducer goes wrong for any unexpected reason. 3.2 Theory 6 A pump is placed in the borehole and operated at a constant flow rate Q.

  • Permafrost Warming in the Tien Shan Mountains, Central Asia ⁎ S.S
    Global and Planetary Change 56 (2007) 311–327 www.elsevier.com/locate/gloplacha Permafrost warming in the Tien Shan Mountains, Central Asia ⁎ S.S. Marchenko a, , A.P. Gorbunov b, V.E. Romanovsky a a Geophysical Institute, University of Alaska Fairbanks, AK 99775-7320, USA b Institute of Geography, Almaty, Kazakhstan Received 11 May 2005; accepted 19 July 2006 Available online 5 October 2006 Abstract The general features of alpine permafrost such as spatial distribution, temperatures, ice content, permafrost and active-layer thickness within the Tien Shan Mountains, Central Asia are described. The modern thermal state of permafrost reflects climatic processes during the twentieth century when the average rise in mean annual air temperature was 0.006–0.032 °C/yr for the different parts of the Tien Shan. Geothermal observations during the last 30 yr indicate an increase in permafrost temperatures from 0.3 °C up to 0.6 °C. At the same time, the average active-layer thickness increased by 23% in comparison to the early 1970s. The long-term records of air temperature and snow cover from the Tien Shan's high-mountain weather stations allow reconstruction of the thermal state of permafrost dynamics during the last century. The modeling estimation shows that the altitudinal lower boundary of permafrost distribution has shifted by about 150–200 m upward during the twentieth century. During the same period, the area of permafrost distribution within two river basins in the Northern Tien Shan decreased approximately by 18%. Both geothermal observations and modeling indicate more favorable conditions for permafrost occurrences and preservation in the coarse blocky material, where the ice-rich permafrost could still be stable even when the mean annual air temperatures exceeds 0 °C.

  • Rock Music's Crusade of Authenticity
    ROCK MUSIC’S CRUSADE OF AUTHENTICITY by DANIEL BROMFIELD A THESIS Presented to the Department of Journalism and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2016 An Abstract of the Thesis of Daniel Bromfield for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the School of Journalism and Communications to be taken June 2016 Title: Rock Music's Crusade Of Authenticity Prof. Thomas Wheeler This thesis attempts to define rock music's standards of authenticity and explore their origins. Included are comparison of rock's standards of authenticity to those of other genres and an exploration of how authenticity has been perceived throughout the history of rock music. This study argues that rock's standards of authenticity are unusual among pop music genres in that they entail artists both writing their own songs and playing their own instruments. This is in contrast to genres like hip hop, contemporary pop, and R&B, which have their own quite different standards of authenticity. Quotes from rock fans, critics, and musicians are used to provide insight into rock's standards of authenticity and how they developed over time. ii Acknowledgements I would like to first and foremost thank my father for introducing me to music. If not for his decision to turn me on to the Beatles one sunny day in June 2006, I would surely be pursuing a far more boring career – and thesis topic. And I would like to thank my mother for giving me a great life and being endlessly supportive.

  • Axis-Parents-Guide-To-Drake.Pdf
    Drake “Drake is an interpreter, in other words, of the people he is trying to reach—an artist who can write lyrics that wide swaths of listeners will want to take ownership of and hooks that we will all want to sing to ourselves as we walk down the street. —Leon Neyfakh, “Peak Drake,” The FADER Does Drake have you in your feelings about how much your kids are listening to him? John Lennon famously said the Beatles were bigger than Jesus, but Aubrey Graham, aka Drake aka Drizzy, is now the best-selling solo male artist of all time. He has surpassed Elvis and Eminem, with over $218,000,000 in total record sales. Not only that, he was Billboard’s 2018 Top Artist and Spotify’s most-streamed artist, track, and album of 2018. Described by one writer as having “the Midas touch when it comes to making hits and singles,” it seems as though everything Drake does is successful. He appeals to those who like “harder” rap, but still excites a One Direction level of infatuation in young girls. Other rappers can take shots at his son and his parents [warning: strong language] without doing real damage to his career. He’s able to transform up-and-coming artists into superstars just by featuring them on his albums or being featured on theirs. With all of his influence on both his fans and the culture at large, it’s important to understand who Drake is, what he stands for, and what he’s teaching, both explicitly and implicitly, the people who listen to him.

Ries ([email protected]) 8 9 Abstract 10 Knowledge of soil moisture dynamics in the unsaturated soil zone provides valuable 11 information on the temporal and spatial variability of groundwater recharge. This is especially 12 true for the Mediterranean region, where a substantial fraction of long-term groundwater 13 recharge is expected to occur during high magnitude precipitation events of above-average 14 wet winters. To elucidate process understanding of infiltration processes during these extreme 15 events, a monitoring network of precipitation gauges, meteorological stations, and soil 16 moisture plots was installed in an area with a steep climatic gradient in the Jordan Valley 17 region. In three soil moisture plots, Hydrus-1D was used to simulate water movement in the 18 unsaturated soil zone with soil hydraulic parameters estimated by the Shuffled Complex 19 Evolution Metropolis algorithm. To generalize our results, we modified soil depth and rainfall 20 input to simulate the effect of the pronounced climatic gradient and soil depth variability on 21 percolation fluxes and applied the calibrated model to a time series with 62 years of 22 meteorological data. 23 Soil moisture measurements showed a pronounced seasonality and suggested rapid infiltration 24 during heavy rainstorms.
