浙江瓯江口南岸潮滩相带的时空变化

瓯江口南岸潮滩可分为三个沉积地貌相带：高潮滩物质由砂、泥混合沉积组成，沿岸沙堤增长；中潮滩物质以砂质为主，坑、洼地貌遍布，滩脊发育，是潮滩中最活跃，对水动力条件反映最敏感的相带；低潮滩物质由泥质组成，滩面平缓，是稳定的淤积带。潮滩相带的沉积物、地貌特征具有明显的时空变化，瓯江入海的水沙对瓯江口南岸潮滩演变产生明显的影响。     

Fe–Mg diffusion in olivine I: experimental determination between 700 and 1,200<Emphasis Type="Bold">°</Emphasis>C as a function of composition,crystal orientation and oxygen fugacity

We have determined Fe–Mg diffusion coefficients in olivines from different sources (Nanga Parbat, Pakistan and San Carlos, Arizona, USA) at atmospheric pressure as a function of composition, oxygen fugacity (10⁻⁵–10⁻¹² Pa) and temperature (700–1200°C) using thin films produced by pulsed laser deposition and RBS to analyze the concentration profiles. We have characterized the nano-scale structure and composition of the thin films annealed at various conditions and shown that the nature of the film (e.g. crystallinity, wetting behavior) depends strongly on the annealing conditions. If these variations are not taken into account in the form of boundary conditions for modeling the diffusion profiles, artifacts would result in the diffusion data. The diffusion coefficients obtained from 75 experiments reveal that (i) between fO₂ of 10⁻⁵ and 10⁻¹⁰ Pa, diffusion along all three principal crystallographic directions in olivine, [100], [010] and [001], are described by a constant activation energy of ∼200 kJ/mol, precluding any temperature dependence of diffusion anisotropy and change of mechanism of diffusion at temperatures between 950 and 1200°C, (ii) diffusion coefficients increase with oxygen fugacity at fO₂ > 10⁻¹⁰ Pa, with an fO₂ exponent that lies between 1/4 and 1/7, and (iii) at fO₂ below 10⁻¹⁰ Pa, and consequently at temperatures below ∼900°C, diffusion becomes weakly dependent/independent of fO₂, indicating a change of diffusion mechanism. Activation energy of diffusion at these conditions is slightly higher, ∼220 kJ/mol. The data, including the change of mechanism, are analyzed in terms of point defect chemistry in Part II of this work to derive an equation that allows calculation of diffusivities in olivine over its entire field of stability. Availability of directly measured data at temperatures down to 700°C imply that for the first time diffusion coefficients can be interpolated, rather than extrapolated, for modeling most natural systems.     

阿尔泰哈巴河群的沉积时代及其构造背景

北疆阿尔泰造山带的哈巴河群变质碎屑岩分布广泛,其沉积时代和构造环境对于认识中亚造山带的演化历史有重要意义。早期研究认为哈巴河群沉积于震旦纪—中奥陶世时期,形成于被动大陆边缘构造环境。而最近有学者根据中亚造山带的地质演化背景提出,阿尔泰形成于活动陆缘构造环境。对哈巴河群中碎屑锆石的年代学研究表明,不同岩性或变质程度不同的样品碎屑锆石主要类群具有相似的年龄分布特征,其~(206)Pb/~(238)U 年龄主要介于463～542Ma 之间。在这些样品中, 最年轻的碎屑锆石年龄均集中于470Ma 左右,代表了碎屑沉积的时代下限。而哈巴河群混合岩样品中碎屑锆石增生边形成于中泥盆世晚期(384±6Ma),与侵入该群的早古生代花岗岩的年龄十分接近,大致反映了哈巴河群碎屑岩沉积时代的上限,因此哈巴河群的沉积时代应在早泥盆世—中奥陶世之间。锆石的形态和内部结构特征显示哈巴河群的年轻碎屑锆石类群(463～542Ma)主要为岩浆锆石,其磨圆度较差,而且在比例上远高于前寒武纪碎屑锆石。上述特点与活动大陆边缘碎屑锆石类群分布特征完全一致,反映阿尔泰在中奥陶世至早泥盆世可能处于活动大陆边缘构造环境。     

Chemical perturbations in the planetary boundary layer and their relevance for chemistry transport modelling

The role of perturbations of reactive trace gas concentration distributions in turbulent flows in the planetary boundary layer (PBL) is discussed. The paper focuses on disturbances with larger spatial scales. Sequential nesting of a chemical transport model is applied to assess the effect of neglecting subgrid chemical perturbations on the formation and loss of ozone, NO _x , peroxyacetyl nitrate (PAN) and HNO₃ calculated with a highly complex chemical mechanism. The results point to characteristic differences regarding the process of mixing of chemically reactive species in the PBL and lower troposphere.     

Deposition of atmospheric particulate PCBs in suburban site of Turkey

Dry deposition and air concentration samples were collected from July 2004 to May 2005 at a suburban site in Turkey. A water surface sampler (WSS) was used to measure directly the dry deposition flux of particulate polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) while a high volume air sampler (HVAS) was employed to collect air samples. Particulate PCB concentrations accounted for 15% of total PCBs (gas + particle phase) at the site. The overall particulate phase PCB flux ranged from 2 to 160 ng m^− 2 d^− 1 with an average of 46.3 ± 40.6 ng m^− 2 d^− 1. Forty one PCB congeners were targeted in the samples while twenty one congeners were found to be higher than detection limits in deposition samples. Fluxes for homolog groups ranged between 0.9 (7-CBs) and 21.0 (3-CBs) ng m^− 2 d^− 1. Measured dry deposition fluxes were lower than the ones usually reported for urban sites. Average PCB dry deposition velocity, calculated using flux values and concurrently measured atmospheric concentrations, was 1.26 ± 1.86 cm s^− 1 depended on size distribution of particles, atmospheric PCB concentrations and meteorological conditions.     

莱州湾南岸海水入侵类型及其分区

渤海莱州湾南岸，是我国海水入侵灾害最严重的岸段。依据入侵物源可将广义海水入侵划分为两种基本类型：来源于现代海水的狭义海水入侵和物源于浅层第四纪沉积层中古海水（包括一般地下咸水及地下卤水）的地下咸水入侵。它们的成因、机理和危害差异明显；地下卤水入侵是一种特殊类型，造灾程度最高。海岸地貌和第四纪水文地质环境，是控制海水入侵类型区划的主导因素。莱州湾南岸不同岸段海岸环境差异，形成了海水入侵区、地下咸水入侵区和海、咸水混合入侵区３种类型区，可具体区划为：莱州市北部海岸海水入侵区，胶莱河－沙河河口平源海、咸水混合入侵区，昌邑北部潍河河口平原海、咸水混合入侵区，寿光北部平原地下咸水入侵区等４个区。类型区划分将有助于海水入侵灾害防治工程。     

电站附近水域泥沙淤积的示踪研究

近年来示踪技术作为研究水动力和泥沙冲淤规律的工具得到越来越广泛的应用。示踪技术比传统的水文观测方法方便、准确。传统研究方法往往只能进行定点或走航采样监测,而示踪技术则能准确判定某一区域泥沙或水流的具体运动过程和最终运动结果,甚至给出定量的结论,从而为数学模型参数的确定提供有效的依据。Pujol使用3H监测西班牙Ebro河的横向扩散速率[1],Albert在Ebo河用同样的方法研究水     

华北克拉通西部古元古代孔兹岩系的地层对比、岩相古地理特征及其地质意义

位于华北克拉通西部的孔兹岩系是探讨华北克拉通形成及演化过程的关键对象之一,近年来的研究显示这套富铝质沉积岩系在1.95~1.82Ga期间经历了高压/高温和超高温-高温/中(低)压两期变质作用。已发表的钻井资料表明鄂尔多斯中、新生代盆地的基底岩石在源区特征、沉积时代、岩石矿物组合和变质时代等方面均与孔兹岩系十分类似,暗示孔兹岩系的原岩分布和后期的高级变质作用范围可能涉及到了鄂尔多斯地块内部。然而,目前对于孔兹岩系的原岩分布、等时性和沉积环境等问题仍有争议,这些问题对于约束孔兹岩系的时空分布和理解华北克拉通西部地区的构造演化过程具有十分重要的科学意义。基于地层学角度的尝试,本文选取贺兰山、大青山和集宁地区的孔兹岩系进行了沉积层序的划分及对比,并初步恢复了相应时期鄂尔多斯地块的岩相古地理特征。本文的研究结果表明:(1)鄂尔多斯地块北缘的贺兰山、大青山和集宁等地区的孔兹岩系均由可对比的三个沉积层序组成;(2)这套沉积岩系的分布范围呈面状延伸至鄂尔多斯地块内部,指示华北克拉通西部曾存在一个克拉通内盆地性质的"鄂尔多斯陆表海",其海侵方向可能由贺兰山-鄂尔多斯地块内部指向大青山、集宁等地区;(3)鄂尔多斯陆表海可能发育于2.5~2.3Ga"构造寂静期"的某一阶段,此间堆积的孔兹岩系(丰镇群)原岩很可能是代表华北陆块完成克拉通化过程的标志性盖层。     

High resolution magnetostratigraphy and deposition cycles in the Nihewan Basin (North China) and their significance for stone artifact dating

Three lacustrine sections in the Nihewan Basin, Xiaodukou, Donggutuo and Xiaochangliang (40.1-40.4°N; 114.6-114.7°E), were closely sampled for magnetostratigraphic and deposition cycle analysis. Rock magnetic investigations show that the characteristic remanent magnetization of the sediments is mainly carried by magnetite and hematite. The Xiaodukou sequence is one of the most complete sections in the basin and has recorded substantial parts of the Brunhes and Matuyama chrons back to the termination of the Olduvai subchron. Several subchrons within the Matuyama period have been documented such as the Jaramillo, the Cobb Mt. and others. The Matuyama/Brunhes boundary, the Jaramillo, as well as the Cobb Mountain events were observed also at Donggutuo. On the basis of grain size and susceptibility data and of field investigations, the sections are divided into two longer lasting lacustrine episodes with a fluvio-lacustrine deposit in between. They are structured by 15 high-frequency deposition sub-cycles. In each cycle, the grain size fines upwards, while magnetic susceptibility decreases. This behavior is due to cyclic water level change of the ancient lake Nihewan. At Xiaodukou, the variations of the 0.2 to 7.5 μm grain size fraction can be correlated with the marine oxygen isotope stages OIS 64-OIS 11. The grey-green clayey to silty Paleolithic stone artifact layers at Xiaochangliang and Donggutuo are located at depths of 55.4 m and 43-38.7 m, respectively. They were buried when the lake-level was rising. The artifact layers have been deposited around the Cobb Mountain event during the sedimentary sub-cycle 6 of the older lacustrine phase corresponding to OIS 35, 36. Thus in contrast to the results of other studies, the estimated age of the Xiaochangliang stone artifact layer does not exceed 1.26 Ma, while the Donggutuo stone artifact layers date back to 1.21-1.15 Ma. This age determination brings the Nihewan hominids in close relation to the findings of Homo Erectus at Lantian on the Chinese Loess Plateau.     

Daytime deposition and nighttime dissolution of calcium carbonate controlled by submerged plants in a karst spring-fed pool: insights from high time-resolution monitoring of physico-chemistry of water

Water temperature, dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, and specific conductivity (spc) were measured in a time interval of 15 min in a karst spring and the spring-fed pool with flourishing submerged plants in Guilin, SW China under dry weather for periods of 2 days. Measurements allowed calculation of calcium and bicarbonate concentrations ([Ca²⁺] and [HCO₃ ⁻]), and thus CO₂ partial pressure ( ) and saturation index of calcite (SIc). Results show that there were not any diurnal variations in the physico-chemical parameters of the water for the spring. However, during daytime periods, pool water decreased to far less than the spring water in a few hours, pH and SIc increased to greater than the spring, and [Ca²⁺] and [HCO₃ ⁻] decreased to less than the spring. During nighttime periods, pool water returned to or even increased to greater than the spring, pH and SIc decreased to less than the spring, and [Ca²⁺] and [HCO₃ ⁻] increased to greater than the spring. The decrease in [Ca²⁺] and [HCO₃ ⁻] to less than the spring during daytime periods implies daytime deposition of calcium carbonate, while the increase in [Ca²⁺] and [HCO₃ ⁻] to greater than the spring during nighttime periods implies nighttime dissolution of calcium carbonate. The direction of the observed changes depended essentially on the illumination, indicating that daytime photosynthetic and nighttime respiratory activities in the pool aquatic plant ecosystem, which were further evidenced by the increase and decrease in DO during daytime and nighttime periods respectively, were the main processes involved. The large variations of the components of the carbonate system imply considerable changes of the capacities of CO₂ and O₂ in water. The finding has implications for water sampling strategy in slow-flowing karst streams and other similar environments with stagnant water bodies such as estuaries, lakes, reservoirs, and wetlands, where aquatic plant ecosystem may flourish.
