贵州盘州地区早渐新世古气候定量重建

早渐新世全球气候迅速发生了降温,对地球生物产生了重大影响。利用共存分析法对贵州盘州地区石脑组的早渐新世植物群古气候进行了定量重建。植物群大化石指示的古气候参数:年均温(MAT)为15.7～21.9℃、最冷月均温(CMMT)为2.5～16.7℃、最热月均温(WMMT)为21.6～28.1℃、年均降雨量(MAP)为828.0～1 900.0mm、最湿月均降雨量(MPwet)为160.0～343.0 mm、最旱月均降雨量(MPdry)为7.0～54.0mm、最暖月均降雨量(MPwarm)为105.0～180.0mm。孢粉化石指示的古气候参数:MAT为11.5～23.9℃、CMMT为-1.0～16.7℃、WMMT为23.0～27.9℃、MAP为803.0～1 613.0mm、MPwet为116.0～293.0mm、MPdry为17.0～55.0mm、MPwarm为94.0～180.0mm。植物群大化石和孢粉化石的共存分析结果都指示一种温暖的、湿润的亚热带气候,且具有较明显的季节变化,与现在我国东南部地区气候较相似。盘州地区现在气候与早渐新世气候相比,夏季变凉爽多雨。结合我国同时期的植物群古气候参数,结果说明我国早渐新世时气候随纬度升高变化并不大,其分带现象明显低于现在的气候纬度分带变化。     

甘肃兰州盆地渐新世古气候参数重建

本文对甘肃兰州盆地渐新统韩家井组的9科11属20种植物化石进行了共存分析,重建了该地区渐新世古气候各参数:年均温(MAT)为-1.4℃～10.9℃,最热月均温(MWT)为9.6℃～27.3℃,最冷月均温(CMT)为-4.4℃～-12.5℃,年较差(DT)为28.0℃～29.8℃,年均降水量(MAP)为315.7～492.2mm,平均最大月降水量(MMaP)为70.5～93.5mm,平均最小月降水量(MMiP)为0.4～11.1mm。分析表明相对于当前气候来说,兰州盆地在渐新世时接近现今甘肃武山地区气候特征,降水量多,气候更加湿润。     

新疆吐鲁番盆地古近纪气候事件的研究

吐鲁番盆地是天山山脉中的一个山间盆地,古近系保存完好,是研究中国西北地区古近纪气候变迁的良好地区。通过对吐鲁番盆地连木沁剖面古近系多种气候代用指标（Fe₂O₃、FeO、CaCO₃、有机碳、有机碳同位素）的研究,探讨了吐鲁番盆地古近纪的气候变迁和重要气候事件。利用Fe3+/Fe2+值,恢复了吐鲁番盆地古近纪的气温：古新世的年均气温为22.35℃,始新世为21.82℃,渐新世为15.69℃,并且在渐新世的早期和晚期发生较大幅度的降温事件。对地层中CaCO3（碳酸钙）含量的研究表明,古新统和始新统碳酸钙平均含量分别为468％和666％,指示该沉积时期气候相对比较湿润,而渐新统达15.01％,指示渐新世气候明显干旱化,并且渐新世的早期和晚期气候更为干旱。有机碳同位素（δ¹³Corg）值分布于C3植物的范围内,表明其受C3植物的影响。对地层中的δ¹³Corg值研究显示,该值与地层中碳酸钙含量呈负相关,与气温呈正相关,即该值偏负时,地层中碳酸钙含量增加,气温降低。各种气候指标指示吐鲁番盆地古新世和始新世气候比较温暖湿润,而渐新世气候干旱温凉。     

叶缘—年均温中国模型在定量重建中国新生代植物群古年均温中的应用

叶缘分析法是一种利用现代植被木本双子叶植物全缘叶物种百分比与年均温的函数关系,定量重建化石植物群古年均温的方法。该方法在新生代植物群的古年均温定量重建研究中得到了广泛的应用。目前基于世界不同地区现代植被的研究表明,尽管全缘叶物种百分比与年均温存在很好的相关性,但其相关性具有地区差异性。本文旨在总结叶缘分析法的研究进展,并介绍基于中国植被建立的叶缘—年均温中国模型;同时,采用该模型重建了中国新生代不同时期植物群的古年均温,且与前人采用其它模型得到的年均温重建值相比较。结果表明,叶缘—年均温中国模型能够有效地重建中国新生代植物群的古年均温值。     

浙东中新世Cinnamomum cf.bejolghota微细构造及其古环境意义

化石采自浙江天台嵊县组.该地层含丰富被子植物压型化石及少量裸子植物化石.利用叶结构分析法,依据叶脉、叶尖、叶基等稳定性特征,对一种樟科植物化石的宏观形态进行了详细的研究;结合表皮特征分析,发现该化石与现生Cinnamomum bejolghota(Buch-Ham.)Sweet在叶形、叶脉特征以及表皮脉络细胞特征、气孔器类型和毛基特征等方面均很相似,因而将当前化石定名为Cinnamomum cf.bejolghota(钝叶桂相似种).通过分析化石钝叶桂的角质层微细构造特征,结合现生钝叶桂的分布范围和生存环境恢复了浙东地区中新世的古气候和古环境特征,推测当时的气候比现在更为炎热多雨,同时认为钝叶桂从中新世至今有南迁的趋势.     

广东雷州半岛晚渐新世—早更新世孢粉共存因子分析及古气候变化重建

广东省雷州半岛新生代钻孔ZKA01揭露的地层序列自下向上为渐新统涠洲组、中新统下洋组、角尾组、灯楼角组、上新统望楼港组、下更新统湛江组和中更新统北海组,涠洲组—望楼港组为滨浅海沉积,湛江组和北海组为陆相河湖相沉积。本文在ZKA01钻孔地层中自下向上88个层位中获取的29311粒孢粉化石的81个属中,选取了常见的种子植物花粉种属42个,通过共存因子分析法,定量重建了研究区晚渐新世—早更新世的古气候参数,划分出晚渐新世—早中新世(25~17 Ma)、中中新世(17~13.5 Ma)、晚中新世—上新世初期(13.5~4 Ma)和上新世—早更新世(4~1.5 Ma)4个气候演化阶段。孢粉共存因子定量法重建的研究区晚渐新世—早更新世4个阶段的古气候变化过程能较好地与全球气候变化的趋势相匹配,晚渐新世—早中新世温度降低的时间拐点大致可与Mi1a气候变冷事件相吻合。中中新世可以与中中新世气候适宜期(MMCO)相对应,表现为炎热潮湿的气候特征。中中新世晚期的气温是下降的,在一定程度上响应了Mi3中中新世气候变冷事件。     

黄土高原南部下河遗址全新世中期的植被与气候:基于木炭化石记录

基于黄土高原南部白水县西固乡下河西村下河遗址木炭化石记录的系统分析并结合高精度AMS~(14)C测年,重建了研究区5050~4870cal.aB.P.时段植被特征和古气候要素值。研究结果显示全新世中期沟谷地带发育以栎、青冈为主的阔叶林地,其中包括柿树、枣树等经济型林木。通过所鉴定的10个乔木植物种属的共存因子法分析,获得白水下河地区(35.14°N,109.69°E)5050~4870cal.aB.P.时段的气候要素值。年均温(MAT)为12.9℃,比现在高约1.5℃;年均降水量(MAP)为758.4mm,比现在高约180mm;与现今秦岭南麓东部的陕西镇安地区(33.45°N,109.16°E)的气候环境相当,可能指示了气候带向北纬推移了约1.7°。     

新疆准噶尔盆地东缘中—晚二叠世植物群及其地质意义

本文首次报道了新疆准噶尔盆地东缘胜利沟中二叠世平地泉组植物化石11属19种和晚二叠世黄梁沟组植物化石7属9种,并结合前人对这一地区中—晚二叠世植物化石记录,讨论了两个植物群的地质时代。研究认为：中二叠世平地泉组植物群以安加拉植物群为主,混生个别欧美植物群分子;晚二叠世黄梁沟组植物群为混生少量华夏植物群分子的安加拉植物群。在此基础上,探讨了中—晚二叠世植物群演替、植被变化、植物群混生与中亚造山带板块聚合之间的关系,认为中二叠世的暖温带温湿气候在晚二叠世转变为季节性干热气候,准噶尔盆地东缘中—晚二叠世植物群混生与准噶尔—吐哈地块、塔里木板块、佳蒙地块、华北板块的拼合和古亚洲洋的关闭密切相关。

中国晚始新世—早渐新世地层孢粉组合及其古气候特征

始新世—渐新世是从65Ma恐龙绝灭以来新生代地球历史上最重要的事件, 此时地球从“暖室”过渡到“冰室”, 全球气候突变, 南极冰首次出现, 气候突变引起生物的大绝灭, 而我国的孢粉组合也有明显的变化特征.根据我国各个区始新世晚期—渐新世早期地层中孢粉组合的演化规律来探讨当时我国的古气候变化规律, 研究认为中国从始新世晚期到渐新世早期总体上亚热带、热带植物成分丰度和分异度都降低, 温带植物如桦科和榆科花粉大增, 耐寒山地针叶植物大量发育, 干旱类型植物增加, 草本植物开始繁盛.这些反映了从始新世晚期到渐新世早期植被组成由热带亚热带常绿阔叶树为主的针阔叶林转变为落叶树为主的针阔混交林, 说明晚始新世气候温暖湿润过渡到早渐新世气候变干变冷.孢粉植物群所反映的我国气候变化趋势与全球气候变化趋势一致, 说明我国的陆地也受全球构造的演变和南极大陆冰盖的影响.      

The terrestrial fauna of the Late Triassic Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry fissures,South Wales,UK and a new species of Clevosaurus (Lepidosauria: Rhynchocephalia)

Pant-y-ffynnon Quarry in South Wales yielded a rich cache of fossils in the early 1950s, including articulated specimens of new species (the small sauropodomorph dinosaur Pantydraco caducus and the crocodylomorph Terrestrisuchus gracilis), but no substantial study of the wider fauna of the Pant-y-ffynnon fissure systems has been published. Here, our overview of existing specimens, a few described but mostly undescribed, as well as freshly processed material, provides a comprehensive picture of the Pant-y-ffynnon palaeo-island of the Late Triassic. This was an island with a relatively impoverished fauna dominated by small clevosaurs (rhynchocephalians), including a new species, Clevosaurus cambrica, described here from a partially articulated specimen and isolated bones. The new species has a dental morphology that is intermediate between the Late Triassic Clevosaurus hudsoni, from Cromhall Quarry to the east, and the younger C. convallis from Pant Quarry to the west, suggesting adaptive radiation of clevosaurs in the palaeo-archipelago. The larger reptiles on the palaeo-island do not exceed 1.5?m in length, including a small carnivorous crocodylomorph, Terrestrisuchus, and a possible example of insular dwarfism in the basal dinosaur Pantydraco.     

Définition d'une limite multicritère ; stratigraphie du passage Campanien–Maastrichtien du site géologique de Tercis (Landes,SW France)Definition of a multi-criteria boundary; stratigraphy of the Campanian–Maastrichtian interval of the geological site at Tercis (Landes,SW France)

Lithostratigraphy, physicochemical stratigraphy, biostratigraphy, and geochronology of the 77–70 Ma old series bracketing the Campanian–Maastrichtian boundary have been investigated by 70 experts. For the first time, direct relationships between macro- and microfossils have been established, as well as direct and indirect relationships between chemo-physical and biostratigraphical tools. A combination of criteria for selecting the boundary level, duration estimates, uncertainties on durations and on the location of biohorizons have been considered; new chronostratigraphic units are proposed. The geological site at Tercis is accepted by the Commission on Stratigraphy as the international reference for the stratigraphy of the studied interval. To cite this article: G.S. Odin, C. R.

The effect of water on accessory phase solubility in subaluminous and peralkaline granitic melts

The solubilities of columbite, tantalite, wolframite, rutile, zircon and hafnon were determined as a function of the water contents in peralkaline and subaluminous granite melts. All experiments were conducted at 1035 °C and 2 kbar and the water contents of the melts ranged from nominally dry to approximately 6 wt.% H₂O. Accessory phase solubilities are not affected by the water content of the peralkaline melt. By contrast, solubilities are affected by the water content of the subaluminous melt, where the solubilities of all the accessory phases examined increase with the water content of the melt, up to 2 wt.% H₂O. At higher water contents, solubilities are nearly constant. It can be concluded that water is not an important control of accessory phase solubility, although the water content will affect diffusivities of components in the melt, thus whether or not accessory phases will be present as restite material. The solubility behaviour in the subaluminous and peralkaline melts supports previous spectroscopic studies, which have observed differences in the coordination of high field strength elements in dry vs. wet subaluminous granitic glasses, but not for peralkaline granitic glasses. Lastly, the fact that wolframite solubility increases with increasing water content in the subaluminous melt suggests that tungsten dissolved as a hexavalent species.     

Late Wuchiapingian (Late Dzhulfian,early Late Permian) limestone olistolites within the Tertiary flysch of Glypia Unit (Mount Parnon,central–eastern Peloponnesus,Greece)

Some olistolites reworked in a Tertiary flysch of Mount Parnon (Peloponnesus, Greece) exhibit a Late Permian assemblage, dominated by Paradunbarula (Shindella) shindensis, Hemigordiopsis cf. luquensis and Colaniella aff. minima. This association corresponds to the Late Wuchiapingian (=Late Dzhulfian), a substage whose algae and foraminifera are generally little known. Contemporaneous limestones crop out in the middle part of the Episkopi Formation in Hydra, but they are rather commonly reworked in Mesozoic and Cainozoic sequences. The palaeobiogeographical affinities shared by the foraminiferal markers of Greece, southeastern Pamir, and southern China, are very strong (up to the specific level), and are congruent with the Pangea B reconstructions.
