Progress in The Study of Land Use Landscape Patterns

Abstract: Landscape pattern refers to the spatial distribution and configuration of heterogeneous geographic units composed of different ecosystems, i.e., landscape elements, and is usually determined by the type, number, scale, shape and spatial distribution pattern of landscape elements. The formation of landscape patterns is mostly the result of complex interactions among physical, biological and socio-economic factors. Land use change (LUCC) is one of the key factors affecting the structure, function and dynamics of landscapes, and LUCC can not only objectively reflect the use of natural resources such as land and potential ecological risks by human activities, but also reveal the mechanisms of interaction between human activities and the ecological environment.

Evaluation of the Development Effect of Oilfield Water Injection

Abstract: Shannan Oilfield Shachu 5 block is a typical elastic dissolved gas-driven lithological reservoir, and the underground oil and water distribution is very complicated due to the long-term water injection and drive, and after the implementation of a large number of water injection measures, it is necessary to analyse and evaluate the effect of water-driven development in this block. Through the screening index, the evaluation of water drive development effect is carried out by adopting the water content increase rate, water drive index, water storage rate and control as the main indexes. The evaluation results show that: the main contradiction faced by the reservoir development is that the rate of water content rise is too fast, and the water drive efficiency is low; the main problems faced by the reservoir to improve the water drive effect are the large differences in the distribution of residual oil between layers and wells with low multi-directional efficiency ratio, and the difficulty of water drive excavation in each layer is increased, and so on.

Study on Enhanced Oil Recovery with Viscoelastic Self-regulator

Abstract: After long-term water flooding in low permeability reservoirs, dominant channels develop, and viscoelastic self-regulating agents can block large pores and inhibit bottom water coning. Based on the physical model experiment of sand filling pipe and the dynamic simulation system of pressure conduction online detection, this paper simulates the displacement characteristics of low permeability reservoir, and quantitatively studies the regulation and displacement performance of high permeability fracture model and low permeability matrix model of sand filling pipe with viscoelastic self-regulator under different permeability difference and different injection speed. Through pressure gradient, diversion rate and recovery factor, the formation energy conduction law under different injection and production systems is revealed. The results show that when the permeability difference is small, the blocking position of the regulating and flooding agent is in the front of the middle of the low permeability pipe and in the back of the middle of the high permeability pipe, and the opposite is true when the permeability difference is large, and the pressure gradient of the large permeability difference is greater than that of the small permeability difference. With the increase of flow rate, the pressure gradient increases gradually. The slug also increases, and the peak of the hyperosmotic tube gradually moves toward the inlet end, and the peak of the hypoosmotic tube gradually moves toward the outlet end. The formation energy conduction efficiency is positively correlated with the injection rate, that is, the higher the injection rate is, the faster the pressure rise at the production well is.

Urban Green Space and Human Health: an Environmental Justice Perspective

Abstract: Urban green spaces have been shown to provide many of the environmental and social benefits associated with improving the quality of life of residents. However, urban population growth combined with densifying urban planning policies, such development may lead to an unequal distribution of green spaces in cities. As a result, access to green space is increasingly recognized as an environmental justice issue. Based on the Science Citation Index (SCI) core collection database, this paper focuses on the recent research progress of environmental justice research in urban parks and green spaces. This literature documents access to urban parks across socioeconomic and ethnic groups, the extensive benefits of parks for public health and sustainability. The increasing supply of urban green space in many areas of the United States, while emphasizing its diversity and inclusiveness in use, will help alleviate the injustice of urban green space. However, adding too many new urban green spaces and increasing residents' access to parks may lead to green gentrification. In Europe, research is already exploring models of public participation that can promote spatial justice in cities. In China, research on environmental justice in urban green spaces is just emerging and has the potential to be linked to future research on green gentrification, multi-objective use of urban infrastructure, public participation, big data analysis, and community programming.

Abstract: Junggar Basin is one of the important petroliferous basins in China. Based on sedimentology, palaeogeography, geochemical characteristics, tectonic thermal evolution and other aspects, this study analyzes the characteristics and distribution law of source rocks, and predicts the total oil and gas resources of Jurassic in the basin. Middle and Lower Jurassic is the main hydrocarbon source rock strata of Jurassic, and a large set of thick coal and dark mudstone are developed on delta, shore-shallow lake and deep lake facies in the basin, among which Badaowan Formation is 200 ~ 800 m thick; Xishanyao Formation is 50m ~ 550m thick, which has great development prospect, but there are few exploration results at present. Through geochemical index analysis and thermal evolution simulation of source rocks, the middle and lower Jurassic source rocks are mostly medium-good source rocks, and the distribution and thermal evolution degree of mature source rocks in the south and east of the basin are higher than those in the north and west of the basin, so they have the conditions for mass production of hydrocarbons.

Predicted Open Flow Rate Based on Capacity Test Well Data

Abstract: Open flow measurement in carbonate reservoirs directly affects the effectiveness of gas well production evaluation, assessment of reservoir potential, and guidance of safe production. In order to overcome the limitations of the traditional non-resistance flow calculation method, which relies on human adjustment and cannot meet the field demand in real time. In this study, based on the historical data and geological data of the blocks of the target gas reservoir, the production capacity test data of 8 wells and 13 wells were obtained. By using the K nearest neighbor method for data processing, a carbonate rock open flow prediction model based on the data from the capacity well test data was established, with a correlation coefficient of more than 0.92. The results of this study show that the predicted open flow rate is able to simplify the traditional complex mathematical calculation methods. This study provides support for capacity evaluation, assesses the potential of the gas reservoir, and helps the gas reservoir to develop appropriate safety production measures. Read More

Control Method of Roadway Surrounding Rock Under the Influence of Residual Coal Pillars in Goaf

Abstract: In the process of close coal seam mining, the lower coal seam is affected by the concentrated stress of the remaining coal pillars in the goaf area of the upper coal seam, and the surrounding rock of the roadway may appear in the surrounding rock of the roadway, such as large deformation, strong sheet gang, and roofing, and the targeted surrounding rock control countermeasures are the key to ensure the stability of the surrounding rock. In order to solve the above problems, taking the thick-topped coal mining roadway of the B1 coal seam of Kuangou mine as the engineering background, the comprehensive research methods such as numerical simulation, theoretical analysis and field test were used to analyze the environmental characteristics of high deviator stress, such as the maximum principal stress and the difference of principal stress at different roadway locations of the B1 coal seam under the influence of the legacy coal pillars, and the plastic failure law of the surrounding rock under the action. The results show that under the condition of the remaining coal pillars in the 15m goaf, the maximum principal stress concentration area is located in the range of 10.0m~15.0m, and the peak value is about 0.95 times of the original rock stress.
