The effect of seafloor topography in the Southern Ocean on tabular iceberg drifting and grounding

Antarctic tabular icebergs are important active components in the ice sheet-ice shelf-ocean system. Seafloor topography is the key factor that affects the drifting and grounding of icebergs, but it has not been fully investigated. This study analyzes the impact of seafloor topography on the drifting and grounding of Antarctic tabular icebergs using Bedmap-2 datasets and iceberg route tracking data from Brigham Young University. The results highlight the following points. (1) The quantitative distributions of iceberg grounding events and the tracking points of grounded icebergs are mainly affected by iceberg draft and reach their peak values in sea water with depths between 200 m and 300 m. The peak tracking point number and linear velocity of free-drifting icebergs are found in the Antarctic Slope Front (water depth of approximately 500 m). (2) The area of possible grounding regions of small-scale icebergs calved from ice shelf fronts accounts for 28% of the sea area at water depths less than 2000 m outside the Antarctic coastline periphery (3.62 million km²). Their spatial distribution is mainly around East Antarctica and the Antarctic Peninsula. The area of possible grounding regions of large tabular icebergs with long axes larger than 18.5 km (in water depths of less than 800 m) accounts for 74% of the sea area. (3) The iceberg drifting velocity is positively correlated with ocean depth in areas where the depth is less than 2000 m (R=0.85, P<0.01). This result confirms the effect of water depth variations induced by seafloor topography fluctuations on iceberg drifting velocity.

阿尔金断裂带东段地区的造转换及其动力学机制研究一直是地学工作者关注的焦点.本文利用双差定位法获取研究区域2008—2017年间6013次地震事件的精确定位数据;整理筛选前人震源机制解36个,并采用P/S波振幅比方法计算获得221个以及CAP方法获得25个震源机制解信息.选择野马河—大雪山断裂作为研究区构造转换研究的突破口,综合小震定位数据与震源机制解信息,并开展野外地质调查进行验证,清晰刻画出该断裂的深部构造形态以及现今的运动特征：由阿尔金断裂带向祁连山方向过渡,断层产状由近直立逐渐转变为倾向南,倾角变缓,震源机制解由走滑性质为主转变为逆冲性质为主,是一个连续渐变的过程,为研究区的构造转换研究提供了直接证据.     

基于BSWT-DDTFA方法的地球天然脉冲电磁场震前信号时频分析研究

地球天然脉冲电磁场（ENPEMF）信号,可理解为地球天然变化磁场的瞬间扰动,携带了大量有用的地质构造及其动力学信息.研究ENPEMF信号所蕴含的时间-频率联合分布特点,有利于深入了解目标对象的地球物理现象及其地质动力学原理.本文针对ENPEMF信号的非平稳特点,在数据驱动时频分析方法（DDTFA）的基础上提出了基于二值化同步压缩小波变换的改进算法（BSWT-DDTFA）.该算法可以实现数据驱动初始相位自动赋值的功能,具有自适应性.实验仿真和实际数据均证明了该改进算法不仅能够得到较为精确的频率曲线和更加清晰的时频分布,而且具有较强的抗噪声能力.以2013年芦山M_S7.0地震为例,利用BSWT-DDTFA方法提取ENPEMF信号的时频特性,结果表明ENPEMF信号的时间-频率-幅度分布在震前有明显的异常特征.     

THE INVERSION OF S-WAVE VELOCITY STRUCTURE IN NINGXIA AND ITS ADJACENT AREA USING BACKGROUND NOISE IMAGING TECHNOLOGY

In this paper, we use seismic waveform data of 90 seismic stations in Ningxia and its adjacent areas recorded between January 2012 and December 2013 to obtain the Rayleigh surface wave group velocity dispersion of the study area according to the noise imaging method and the 3-D S-wave velocity structure of the crust and upper mantle in Ningxia and its adjacent regions. The results show that within the depth range of 10~40km in Yinchuan graben and Liupanshan fault belt there exists a slow anomaly body, and with the increase of the depth this slow anomaly becomes an abnormal slow zone surrounding Lanzhou Basin between the massif arcuate structure of northeastern margin of Tibet Plateau and Alxa block. The 3-D S-wave velocity structure of the crust and upper mantle of the study area presents obvious lateral inhomogeneity. These results have important significance for the study of the dynamics of active tectonic zones and mechanism of strong earthquakes in Ningxia and its adjacent areas.     

汶川地震断裂带科学深钻WFSD-3附近上地壳S波分裂特征

为配合汶川地震断裂带科学钻探工程(WFSD),中国地震局地球物理研究所在四川省绵竹市天池乡和灌县—安县断裂附近分别架设了15套微震仪器和17个短周期地震台.基于WFSD-3附近的微震、短周期和区域台网的固定台站记录的近震数据,通过横波窗内S波分裂计算,得到其上地壳各向异性参数,即快波偏振方向和慢波的时间延迟,并分析了研究区的上地壳各向异性特征.结果显示,研究区大部分区域的快波偏振方向为NE向,与龙门山断裂带走向一致,但在研究区微震台阵布设小区域内,快波偏振方向表现出东西分区特征,东部为NE向,西部为NW向.上地壳各向异性主要是受到岩层中随应力分布排列的微裂隙和岩石或矿物结构的影响,研究区内快波偏振方向主要表现为NE方向,与断裂走向一致,反映了研究区上地壳各向异性主要受控于结构控制的各向异性,局部区域的快波偏振方向为NW向,与区域最大主压应力方向一致,说明区域应力场对研究区上地壳各向异性也有影响.通过分析微震台阵的归一化时间延迟随时间的变化情况可以反映区域应力场的变化情况.微震台阵的慢S波时间延迟在2012、2013年较为离散,在2014年有收敛的趋势,反映了强震后区域应力场逐渐稳定的趋势.     

Distribution,potential sources and ecological risks of two persistent organic pollutants in the intertidal sediment at the Shuangtaizi Estuary,Bohai Sea of China

Spatial distribution, source apportionment, and potential ecological risks of sixteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and seven endocrine disrupting compounds (EDCs) in the intertidal sediment at the Shuangtaizi Estuary, Bohai Sea of China were analyzed. Results showed that the total PAH concentrations ranged from 28.79 ng g^? 1 dw to 281.97 ng g^? 1 dw (mean: 115.92 ng g^? 1 dw) and the total EDC concentrations from 0.52 ng g^? 1 dw to 126.73 ng g^? 1 dw (mean: 37.49 ng g^? 1 dw). The distribution pattern for the PAHs was generally different from that of the EDCs possibly due to their distinct sources and n-octanol-/water partition coefficients (K_OW). Qualitative and quantitative analytical results showed that PAH sources were mainly from a mixture of pyrogenic and petrogenic contributions. The higher levels at the southeast of Geligang indicated that the EDC pollutants may have mainly originated from the plastic industry and other chemical plants located along the Liao River. Ecological risk assessment revealed that PAHs exhibited low ecotoxicological effects, whereas EDCs, especially 4-tert-octylphenol and bisphenol A, had high ecological hazard to the estuarine biota.     

A fast algorithm for prestack Gaussian beam migration adopting the steepest descent approximation

In the past, prestack Gaussian beam migration adopted the steepest descent approximation to reduce the dimension of the integrals and speed up the computation. However, the simplified formula by the steepest descent approximation was still in the frequency domain, and it had to be evaluated at each frequency. To solve this problem, we present a fast algorithm by changing the order of the integrals. The innermost integral is regarded as a two-dimensional continuous function with respect to the real part and the imaginary part of the total traveltime. A lookup table corresponding to the value of the innermost integral is constructed at the sampling points. The value of the innermost integral at one imaging point can be obtained through interpolation in the constructed lookup table. The accuracy and efficiency of the fast algorithm are validated with the Marmousi dataset. The application to the Sigsbee2A dataset shows a good result.

太湖梅梁湾水土界面反硝化和厌氧氨氧化

运用无扰动芯样实验室内流动培养、稳定同位素示踪、同位紊气态产物测定及同位素配对技术,对太湖梅梁湾北部到南部的4个梯度样点的水土界面反硝化和厌氧氨氧化速率进行研究.结果表明,梅梁湾内及湾外开敞湖区4个样点的水土界面反硝化脱氮速率为(46.36±13.26)-(16.34±22,74)μmol/(m~2·h),厌氧氨氧化脱氮速率为(7.50±2.21)-(2.05±2.90)～mol/(m~2.b).梅梁湾北部河口区水土界面总脱氮能力明显高于梅梁湾南部及开敞湖区.通过对脱氮过程的进一步研究发现.北部脱氮过程主要以上覆水硝酸盐为底物的非耦合反硝化过程(D_w)为优势过程,而梅梁湾外开敞湖区则以沉积物硝化过程耦合控制的反硝化(D_n)为主.影响D_n、D_w在反硝化中比重的主要因素是沉积物溶氧侵蚀深度和上覆水NO_3~-.浓度的差异;梅梁湾厌氧氨氧化脱氮比例占总脱氮比例为12%-14%,湾外开敞湖区则占11%,影响其比例差异的主要因子是反硝化强度的大小及其反硝化中间产物--亚硝酸盐含量的差异.     

Study on the Anisotropy of the Underground Medium in Hohhot

In this paper, the data of earthquake events of magnitude M_S6.0 and above produced in Hohhot Seismic Station from 2008 to 2015 and the data of M_L ≥ 1.0 seismic events from 2015 to 2016 in Horinger Seismic Station and the surrounding mobile stations in southern Hohhot are selected. Using Splitlab and SAM software, the spin-correlation method, the least-energy method and the cross-correlation coefficient method are used to analyze the teleseismic and near-seismic phases (SKS, S). The results of this study are in good agreement with the results previously obtained by other researchers. The study of teleseismic SKS splitting reflects the characteristics of the anisotropy of the upper mantle beneath Hohhot, that is, the anisotropy of the upper mantle shows NW, which reflects "fossil" Anisotropy, mainly in the continental structure of stable units and preserves the history of mantle deformation information. The crustal anisotropy reflected by the near-earthquake S-wave splitting study is similar to that of the active fault zone, trending NE as a whole and is consistent with the tectonic stress field background of the northeastern margin of Ordos block.
