中国东西部典型盆地中—新生代热体制对比

沉积盆地的热体制和热历史是盆地动力学和油气成藏研究的重要内容,中国东西部盆地受不同构造背景和动力学机制影响,热体制存在明显差异。文中从盆地的热历史、热岩石圈厚度和岩石圈热结构3个方面对渤海湾和塔里木这两个中国东西部典型盆地中—新生代的热体制进行了分析,表明东西部盆地在中—新生代时期的热体制存在较大差异。中—新生代时期渤海湾盆地经历了早白垩世—晚白垩世早期(K1—K12)和始新世—渐新世(E2—E3)两期热流高峰,而塔里木盆地热流值是逐渐降低的过程;渤海湾盆地的热岩石圈厚度在中—新生代经历了早白垩世晚期和古近纪中—晚期两次快速的减薄高峰,减薄高峰时期岩石圈厚度仅为43~55km;而塔里木盆地则经历了中生代缓慢增厚—古近纪以来快速增厚的过程。由地幔热流与地表热流比值确定的岩石圈热结构揭示出渤海湾盆地经历了三叠—侏罗纪的"冷幔热壳"型和白垩纪以后的"热幔冷壳"型;塔里木盆地则由"热幔冷壳"型在新近纪末期转变为"冷幔热壳"岩石圈热结构。深部岩石圈的热结构和热状态的这种差异与岩石圈热-流变结构和岩石圈变形特征密切相关,通过对沉积盆地中—新生代时期的热历史和岩石圈热结构演化的研究,可以揭示沉积盆地深部的热状态,为中—新生代以来的成盆动力学机制研究提供有科学意义的参考。     

渤海湾盆地中、新生代岩石圈热结构研究

本文以浅部沉积盆地热历史恢复结果为基础,结合地热学的有关理论计算得到渤海湾盆地中生代以来不同地质时期壳幔热流配分及莫霍面温度。结果显示,渤海湾盆地在早白垩世晚期和古近纪中晚期达到两次地幔热流与地表热流之比高峰,其两期地幔热流占地表热流比例都超过65%。莫霍面温度在早白垩世晚期、古近纪中晚期及新近纪早期(仅在临清坳陷、沧县隆起和冀中坳陷)出现3次高峰,其温度分别为900～1100℃、820～900℃和770～810℃。本文的研究不仅揭示出白垩纪是渤海湾盆地岩石圈热结构的重要转型期,即由三叠纪和侏罗纪的"冷幔热壳"型转变为白垩纪以来的"热幔冷壳"型的岩石圈热结构,还揭示出渤海湾盆地在早白垩世晚期和古近纪中晚期发生两期强烈的构造裂陷作用。因此,本文的研究可以为中国东部大陆岩石圈地球动力学的研究提供地热学参数。     

东海陆架盆地西湖凹陷岩石圈热流变性质

为了探讨东海陆架盆地西湖凹陷岩石圈热流变性质,本文以实测地温数据为依据,模拟西湖凹陷岩石圈热结构,在此基础上,应用流变学原理模拟确定西湖凹陷岩石圈流变性质。结果表明,西湖凹陷岩石圈为一个冷地壳-热地幔、强地壳-弱地幔的"奶油蛋糕"型岩石圈。西湖凹陷平均地表热流密度为71 m W/m~2,地幔热流密度为40~65 m W/m~2,对地表热流密度的贡献度达73%~79%,地表热流受地幔热流控制,莫霍面温度在700℃左右,热岩石圈平均厚度为66 km。西湖凹陷岩石圈流变分层明显,上、中地壳基本为脆性层,下地壳和岩石圈上地幔为韧性层,岩石圈总流变强度平均约为2.65′10~(12) N/m,其中地壳流变强度为2.12′10~(12) N/m,地幔流变强度为5.29′10~(11) N/m,有效弹性厚度为11.7~14.5 km,地壳的流变性质控制了岩石圈的流变行为。此外,西湖凹陷岩石圈总强度较低,在构造应力作用下易于变形,且存在壳幔解耦现象。西湖凹陷岩石圈热状态及流变性质决定了西湖凹陷东部地区主要以浅部地壳的断层滑动和地层破裂来调节深部的构造应力。     

鄂尔多斯盆地早白垩世构造热事件形成动力学背景及其对油气等多种矿产成藏（矿）期的控制作用

华北克拉通中西部中生代晚期早白垩世是否存在岩石圈减薄是地学界普遍关注的重大地质问题。本文在作者多年来对鄂尔多斯盆地构造热演化史研究的基础上,充分收集了近年来前人研究的成果及进展,对鄂尔多斯盆地现今地温场、地壳结构、构造热事件、深部热岩石圈厚度、早白垩世火成岩活动期次、构造热事件形成机理及构造热事件与多种矿产成藏成矿关系方面进行探讨。鄂尔多斯盆地现今地温梯度及大地热流中等,属中温型盆地,现今地温场受现今地壳、岩石圈厚度较厚控制。通过对构造背景、古地温恢复、火成岩活动及热岩石圈厚度恢复等资料分析发现早白垩世太行山以西的山西地块及鄂尔多斯盆地处于拉张背景,早白垩世地温梯度高,存在古地温异常及热事件。早白垩世鄂尔多斯盆地热岩石圈厚度明显较现今岩石圈厚度薄,表明华北克拉通中生代晚期以来岩石圈减薄的西界可推到鄂尔多斯盆地。华北克拉通中西部鄂尔多斯盆地周缘、华北克拉通中部山西地块、华北克拉通中西部南缘早白垩世火成岩形成时间相同,岩浆侵入和喷出的时代主要集中在138～108Ma,反映在燕山晚期早白垩世华北克拉通中西部存在一期较为强烈的热事件。火成岩地球化学分析表明火成岩来源为地幔,反映岩石圈处于拉张背景。早白垩世热事件发生的时间与华北克拉通岩石圈减薄的峰期年龄相一致,表明华北克拉通岩石圈减薄作用在华北克拉通中西部广泛存在。早白垩世构造热事件发生的根本原因在于鄂尔多斯盆地岩石圈深部热活动增强,深部软流圈物质上涌,岩石圈厚度减薄。通过对油气、煤、铀等金属矿产成矿(藏)时代与热事件的对应关系分析发现鄂尔多斯盆地油气、煤、铀矿产及华北克拉通中西部金属矿产的形成受控于早白垩世构造热事件及岩石圈拉张减薄的深部热背景,主要成藏(矿)期均为早白垩世,成藏、成矿具有爆发式及同时性特点。     

青海共和盆地岩石圈热-流变结构及地热意义

地球深度热状况是深部地球动力学和岩石圈活动性研究的重要内容, 岩石圈热结构和热-流变结构可以很好地揭示岩石圈范围内的热状况。近年来, 在青海共和盆地钻探揭露了深部高温干热岩体, 关于其热源机制尚未有定论。本文以青海共和盆地为研究对象, 分析壳内温度分布和流变强度, 探讨壳内低速体的地质属性。结果表明, 共和盆地的地壳流变结构从上而下分为脆性和韧性两层, 韧性层又包括中地壳和下地壳两层韧性层, 在上地壳尺度均表现为脆性破裂为主, 并逐渐过渡为韧性流变; 恰卜恰地区在脆性破裂的上地壳延伸至中下地壳时, 破裂沿一系列滑脱面发生韧性滑动, 局部地段形成壳内熔融, 为恰卜恰地区提供了额外的热源, 使其大地热流值(109.6 mW/m2)显著高于贵德地区(77.6 mW/m2)。这一认识为共和盆地壳内低速体存在提供了新的佐证, 也为区内干热岩热源分析以及高温地热资源探测开发提供了科学依据。     

华北克拉通晚中生代壳-幔拆离作用: 岩石流变学约束

大陆岩石圈的流变学结构对于岩石圈深部过程(壳/幔过程)有着深刻的影响,直接表现在岩石圈壳-幔结构与浅部构造上.本文注意到华北克拉通晚中生代岩石圈减薄期间地壳的伸展、拆离与减薄在不同地区的宏观、微观构造及地壳岩石流变学等方面的差异表现与区域变化,以及现今和晚中生代时期岩石圈厚度的不均匀性.讨论了以水为主体的地质流体的存在对于岩石圈流变性的影响.综合克拉通东部与西部地壳/地幔厚度变化特点以及下地壳和上地幔含水性特点,阐述了晚中生代时期华北克拉通岩石圈内部壳幔耦合与解耦的规律,提出了华北岩石圈壳-幔拆离作用模型以解释华北克拉通晚中生代岩石圈减薄的基本现象与深部过程.提出区域性伸展作用是岩石圈减薄的主要动力学因素,东部地区在晚中生代伸展作用过程中壳-幔具有典型的解耦性,上部地壳、下部地壳和岩石圈地幔的变形具有显著差异性.而西部区壳幔总体具有耦合性,下地壳与岩石圈地幔共同构成流变学强度很高且难以变形的岩石圈根.     

中国东南地区岩石圈热结构特征及其构造意义

中国东南地区地质演化复杂,中—新生代构造变形强烈,岩石圈深部热力学状态及其对构造活动的影响有待深入。文章结合最新的大地热流数据与地壳结构Crust 1.0模型,利用稳态热传导方程,以岩石捕虏体温压数据和地震学观测为约束,构建了华南地区扬子克拉通、华夏地块以及南海北缘等不同单元的岩石圈热结构。结果表明该区岩石圈热结构存在强烈的不均一性：除了上扬子地区（四川盆地）为“温壳温幔”的热结构,华南其他大部分地区都表现为“热壳热幔”的特征;同一深度下,华夏地块与南海北缘的深部温度显著高于扬子克拉通;热岩石圈厚度从克拉通内部向沿海地区（NWSE）逐渐降低,也即由四川盆地的~200 km减少到华夏地块的~110 km,再到南海的~70 km。此外,我们还发现陆内地震的分布与岩石圈温度密切相关,地震活动集中分布于600℃等温线以内。总体而言,扬子克拉通中西部岩石圈热结构具有冷而厚的特征,而华夏地块和南海北缘受古太平洋平板俯冲和新生代大陆边缘构造—岩浆作用的改造,表现为热且薄的特征,岩石圈的热弱化进而加速了华南大陆边缘的裂解及随后的南海扩张过程。     

中国东部中新生代火山作用的pTtc模型与岩石圈演化

中国东北和华北地区中新生代火山岩的岩石化学研究表明 ,中新生代火山作用的深部过程均为逆时针的pTt轨迹 ,表现为岩浆源区从逐渐上升到下降的过程。中新生代火山作用的深部过程揭示的岩石圈演化历史为 :早侏罗世至早白垩世早期 ,岩石圈演化主要表现为逐渐减薄的过程 ,直至出现软流圈与地壳直接接触。从早白垩世晚期至中生代末 ,岩石圈演化为一增生过程。第三纪岩石圈演化为减薄过程 ,而到第四纪为岩石圈增生过程。中国东部现代岩石圈地幔是由中生代晚期 (K1末—K3)和第四纪两次增生事件形成的     

华北克拉通东部早白垩世伸展盆地的发育过程及其对克拉通的破坏

在晚侏罗世华北克拉通东部破坏之初出现了区域性隆起,全区缺失上侏罗统沉积。在早白垩世早期,出现了区域性的伸展活动,断陷盆地形成,克拉通南、北缘伸展活动最强,北部燕山构造带以出现变质核杂岩为特征,南部出现宽裂谷型盆地。早白垩世中期华北克拉通东部普遍出现了火山活动与岩浆侵入。早白垩世晚期克拉通上以出现窄裂谷型盆地为特征,沿北北东走向的郯庐断裂带断陷活动最强。这些断陷盆地的演化过程揭示,经历地表抬升后,克拉通破坏之初的岩石圈热而弱,从而形成变质核杂岩或宽裂谷型盆地。这期间的破坏强度在空间上具有不均匀分布的特征,受控于早期岩石圈地幔的结构。经过早白垩世中期的大量岩浆活动之后,早白垩世晚期克拉通岩石圈温度降低、强度变大,从而利用早期大型断裂构造形成窄裂谷型盆地。这现象支持华北克拉通东部晚中生代的岩石圈减薄是以逐渐拆沉机制为主。     

华北克拉通东部早白垩世伸展盆地的发育过程及其对克拉通破坏的指示

在晚侏罗世华北克拉通东部破坏之初出现了区域性隆起,全区缺失上侏罗统沉积.在早白垩世早期.出现了区域性的伸展活动,断陷盆地形成,克拉通南、北缘伸展活动最强,北部燕山构造带以出现变质核杂岩为特征,南部出现宽裂谷型盆地.早白垩世中期华北克拉通东部普遍出现了火山活动与岩浆侵入.早白垩世晚期克拉通上以出现窄裂谷型盆地为特征.沿北北东走向的郯庐断裂带断陷活动最强.这些断陷盆地的演化过程揭示,经历地表抬升后,克拉通破坏之初的岩石圈热而弱,从而形成变质核杂岩或宽裂谷型盆地.这期间的破坏强度在空间上具有不均匀分布的特征.受控于早期岩石圈地幔的结构.经过早白垩世中期的大量岩浆活动之后,早白垩世晚期克拉通岩石圈温度降低、强度变大.从而利用早期大型断裂构造形成窄裂谷型盆地.这些现象支持华北克拉通东部晚中生代的岩石圈减薄是以逐渐拆沉机制为主.     

月球雨海盆地多环结构的厘定及其深部构造研究

雨海盆地是月球正面最大、月球上研究程度最高的多环结构撞击盆地,已有很多学者对其多环结构的边界进行恢复研究,但在多环结构最初始形状、多环位置/数量、盆地大小等方面,至今未能达成共识。本文利用GRAIL自由空气重力异常数据、LOLA激光测高数据进行了多源数据的融合,结果表明,雨海盆地是具有偏心圆的三环结构特点,其直径从外到内分别为1 500 km、1 100 km、665 km。基于欧拉反演结果研究表明,在雨海撞击盆地中部存在两种不同深度、构造运动性质及方向的断裂构造,即：(1)深度大于40 km,向下逐渐向内倾斜、延伸的深部断裂构造;(2)深度在40 km以内,由月表向下逐渐向外倾斜、延伸的浅部断裂构造。结合物质成分及地球物理特征的研究,雨海地区的地质构造演化过程可分为两个阶段：(1)在月球早期阶段(45~38.5亿年),主要以内动力地质作用即岩浆洋冷凝过程为主,形成了雨海盆地深度在40 km以下逐渐向内倾斜、延伸的构造断裂,其为本区在月球早期深部岩浆洋产生、分异及运移提供了通道,该构造断裂代表了雨海盆地撞击前的月球早期深部岩浆洋的构造地质演化阶段;(2)在月球晚期阶段(≤38.5亿年),主要以内、外动力地质作用并重,形成了雨海盆地深度在40 km以内逐渐向外倾斜、延伸的构造断裂,其应为本区不同期次的玄武质岩浆喷出或溢流到月表提供了运移通道,该构造断裂代表了雨海盆地撞击后的月球晚期不同期次玄武质岩浆喷发、充填溢流的月海岩浆活动作用的构造地质演化阶段。     

Crustal structure of the Indian subcontinent

Studies carried out by various investigators up to 1971 to delineate the Indian crustal structure using body wave travel times, surface wave dispersion and gravity methods are summarised and reviewed. The average crustal thickness is found to be 35–40 km in the Indian peninsular shield, 30–35 km in the Indo Gangetic plains and 60–80 km in the Himalayas and the Tibetan plateau region. The limitations of the various methods used and the errors in the estimation of crustal thickness by them are discussed. As no deep refraction work for crustal studies has been carried out so far in India, this topic is not covered in this study.     

Systematics of the spinel structure type

Systematic trends in the geometry of 149 oxide and 80 sulfide binary and ternary spinels have been examined from the standpoint of ionic radius and electronegativity. The mean ionic radii of the octahedral and tetrahedral cations, taken together, account for 96.9 and 90.5% of the variation in the unit cell parameter, a, of the oxides and sulfides, respectively, with the octahedral cation exerting by far the dominant influence in sulfides. The mean electronegativity of the octahedral cation exerts an additional, but small, influence on the cell edge of the sulfides. The equation a=(8/3√d)d _tet+(8/3)d _oct, where d _tet and d _oct are the tetrahedral and octahedral bond lengths obained from the sum of the ionic radii, accounts for 96.7 and 83.2% of the variation in a in the oxides and sulfides, respectively, again testifying to the applicability of the hard-sphere ionic model in the case of the spinel structure. Comparison of observed and calculated u values for 94 spinels indicates that up to 40% of the experimentally measured anion coordinates may be significantly in error. In addition to these compounds, u values are given for 52 spinels for which no data have previously been determined. Diagrams are presented for the rapid interpretation of the internal consistency of published data and the prediction of the structural parameters of hypothetical or partially studied spinels.     

Crustal structure of the Balearic sea

Within the frame of the German-French project ANNA-1970, two long refraction profiles were investigated north and south of the island of Majorca.

For the southern Balearic Basin an oceanic crust can be derived from the travel-time curves consisting of a 4.0 km thick Cenozoic sedimentary layer with: V_p = 2.35 (km/sec) + 0.35 (sec⁻¹) × Z (km) and a 5 km thick layer with: V_p = 4.0 (km/sec) + 0.28 (sec⁻¹) × Z (km)

The transition to the upper mantle takes place at a depth of 12 km. Directly south of Majorca a crustal thickening was measured which may be caused by the process of crustal shortening. P]In the northern Balearic Basin a faulted transitional type of crust has been observed indicating probably an embryonic and juvenile ocean expansion.     

Crustal structure of the Rhinegraben area

Numerous ge ological and geophysical investigations within the past decades have shown that the Rhinegraben is the most pronounced segment of an extended continental rift system in Europe. The structure of the upper and lower crust is significantly different from the structure of the adjacent “normal” continental crust.

Two crustal cross-sections across the central and southern part of the Rhinegraben have been constructed based on a new evaluation of seismic refraction and reflection measurements. The most striking features of the structure derived are the existence of a well-developed velocity reversal in the upper crust and of a characteristic cushion-like layer with a compressional velocity of 7.6–7.7 km/sec in the lower crust above a normal mantle with 8.2 km/sec. Immediately below the sialic low-velocity zone in the middle part of the crust, an intermediate layer with lamellar structure and of presumably basic composition could be mapped.

It is interesting to note that the asymmetry of the sedimentary fill in the central Rhinegraben seems to extend down deeper into the upper crust as indicated by the focal depths of earthquakes. The top of the rift “cushion” shows a marked relief which has no obvious relation to the crustal structure above it or the visible rift at the surface.     

Refinement of the mangan-neptunite crystal structure

The crystal structure of mangan-neptunite, a manganese analogue of neptunite, has been refined in two space groups (Cc and C2/c). The mineral is monoclinic, with the correct space group Cc; the unit-cell dimensions are: a = 16.4821(6), b = 12.5195(4), c = 10.0292(3) Å, β = 115.474(1)°, and V = 1868.31 ų. The crystal structure has been refined to R ₁ = 0.0307 (wR ₂ = 0.0901) on the basis of 4892 observed reflections with |F _hkl | ≥ 4σ|F _hkl |. The most plausible acentric model is caused by the Ti- and (Fe, Mn, Mg)-ordering in the structure. Ti-octahedrons are strongly distorted and consist of short bond Ti-O (1.7 Å), one long bond (2.2 Å), and four equal bonds (2.0 Å). Fe-octahedrons are regularly shaped, with all Fe-O bonds being approximately identical.     

准噶尔盆地基底构造

我们已完成了穿越准噶尔盆地及其周边地区的I-I、II-II、III-III、IV-IV和额敏—哈密剖面5条综合地球物理剖面。通过综合研究,初步了解准噶尔盆地及邻近地区的地球动力学问题:准噶尔盆地基底由北部的乌伦古地体和南部的玛纳斯地体组成。两者的分界为西西北方向的滴水泉—三个泉缝合线。其西部与北东向Dalbutte缝合带相连,东部与北西向的Cranamary缝合带相连。准噶尔盆地北部的乌伦古地体基底为双层构造,上层为泥盆系和下石炭统组成的褶皱基底,大致表现为北厚(3~5 km)、南薄(1~2 km)。缝合线以南的玛纳斯地体为单层基底,即新元古代结晶基底。准噶尔盆地地壳厚度为44~52 km,北薄南厚。周边山区地壳厚度高于盆地地区。盆地及邻近地区地壳分为上、中、下层,并且中地壳一般较薄。盆地地区的地壳存在多条深断裂。南北方向发育了6条主要深断裂,分别为红车、德伦山、石溪、呼图壁、彩南和阜康。这些断层倾角较大,向上延伸至上地壳下部,向下切入地壳基底界面。壳内水平构造和构造面无明显垂向断层,似有“开放断层”特征。这些断层是上地幔物质挤入地壳的良好通道。此外,该地区还有两条主要的横向深断层。一是北西西走向的滴水泉—三个泉深断裂,它向南倾斜,具有逆断层性质,可能会破坏滴水泉—三个泉缝合带。另一条是近东西向的昌吉—玛纳斯深断裂,向南倾斜,主要发育在中下地壳,具有逆断层性质。这些深断裂对盆地构造发育具有一定的控制作用。准噶尔盆地西部的莫霍面基本连续地延伸到了天山的莫霍面,并且后者的莫霍面深度明显大于前者。但是,盆地东部的莫霍面与博格达山脉的莫霍面并不连续。前者以叠加关系延伸到后者之下,表明盆地东部的地壳向博格达山脉俯冲。这有助于解释天山东部构造活动相对减弱而博格达山脉向北推高的构造地貌现象。周边准噶尔盆地具有挤压盆地-山地构造耦合格局,尤其是南部边界东部博格达—准东盆地的山地-盆地构造耦合。现在将准噶尔盆地与吐哈盆地分开的博格达山脉是年轻的、仍在上升的山脉。博格达山的隆升是印支运动以来多次推覆造山运动的反映,其现貌是新近纪以来新构造运动的结果。准噶尔盆地盖层发育经历了3个阶段:与天山和松潘—甘孜造山带形成有关的二叠纪—三叠纪前陆盆地阶段,区域压缩较弱的侏罗纪—早始新世陆内坳陷阶段,以及新近纪晚期以来与天山抬升有关的活化前陆盆地阶段。     

The structure of the coronal-streamer belt

We analyze calibrated white-light coronal images from the LASCO-C2/SOHO experiment (processing level L1), focusing on quasistationary events without coronal mass ejections or their manifestations in the solar wind. The previous result that the streamer belt forms a set of rays of increased brightness is confirmed. The cross section of the streamer belt is frequently observed as two closely spaced rays differing in brightness. It is difficult to explain this in terms of ordinary bending of the belt. We suggest that the belt is normally a set of pairs of rays with enhanced brightness (or two close rows of rays). The distance between the rays in each pair is comparable to the ray size. The ray brightnesses in any pair can, in general, be different. The magnetic field has opposite directions in the rays forming a pair, so that the neutral line of the radial component of the solar magnetic field probably runs along the strip between the pairs of rays.     

Nappe structure of the Sambagawa belt

The thermal structure of the Sambagawa belt, which is reflected by minerals produced during the highest temperature of metamorphism, generally is characterized by the occurrence of the highest grade schists in the middle of the structural pile. The origin of this structure has been analysed in the upper horizon of the Sambagawa schist sequence in Central Shikoku as an example for the structure of the whole belt. The upper horizon of the Sambagawa schist sequence in Central Shikoku consists of three nappes, the Saruta nappe II, the Saruta nappe I and the Fuyunose nappe in descending order of structural level. The Saruta nappe II shows a downward increase of metamorphic grade from the garnet zone, through the albite-biotite zone, to the oligoclase-biotite zone. The Saruta nappe I consists mainly of rocks in the albite-biotite zone and partly in the oligoclase-biotite zone, but the direction of the increase of metamorphic grade is not clear. The Fuyunose nappe shows an upward increase in metamorphic grade which changes from the glaucophane zone to the barroisite zone. It is concluded that the Saruta nappe II and Saruta nappe I were overturned and then mechanically coupled with the Fuyunose nappe. The Sambagawa metamorphic field, which is of the highest temperature phase of metamorphism, appears to have had an inverted thermal gradient and a thermal structure comparable with that expected in the deeper parts of a subduction complex.
