Benthic Metabolism and Standing Stock in the Central and Northern Deep Red Sea

Abstract. Benthic metabolism and standing stocks were investigated in the deep Red Sea between 21^o and 27^oN, Activity was assessed by the determination of respiration rates with a shipboard method and by calculating oxygen consumption from the activity in the electron transport system. We attempted to compare results from different latitudes within the warm Red Sea and with data from cold Atlantic environments. Our investigations were part of an environmental risk assessment to evaluate future mining of metalliferous sediments from the Atlantis II Deep.     

Red Tide Frequency Analysis Using the Extreme Value Theory

In recent years, the red tide erupted frequently, and caused a great economic loss. At present, most literatures emphasize the academic research on the growth mechanism of red tide alga. In order to find out the characters of red tide in detail and improve the precision of forecast, this paper gives some new approaches to dealing with the red tide. By the extreme values, we deal with the red tide frequency analysis and get the estimation of T-times red tide level U （T） , which is the level once the consistence of red tide alga exceeds on the average in a period of T times.     

台湾海峡西岸第四纪沉积层中的老红砂

本文对采自福建沿海的老红砂作了粒度分析、矿物鉴定和石英电镜扫描。结果表明,组成老红砂的成分主要为中细砂,砂含量大于70%,粘土和粉砂含量较少。概率累积曲线多为跳跃、悬浮两段式,其次为滚动、跳跃、悬浮三段式。轻矿物以石英为主,长石含量居次。含量较高的重矿物有磁铁矿、钛铁矿、白钛石,其次有锆石、赤铁矿、褐铁矿、电气石、绿帘石等。文章对老红砂的成因提出一些粗浅的看法。     

温度、盐度、光照强度和pH对海洋原甲藻增长的效应

采用微量移液稀释法对海洋原甲藻进行无菌培养，以研究温度、盐度、光照强度和pH对海洋原甲藻增长的效应。结果表明，海洋原甲藻最大增殖速率发生在温度为(25±1)℃、盐度为31、光照强度为3000lx、pH为8.0的环境条件下。海洋原甲藻在温度18—28℃、盐度为25—34、光照强度为1000—6500lx、pH为7.5—8.3范围内适宜生长。这一结果与观测到的海洋原甲藻赤潮发生时环境条件相近，其中温度的效应最为明显。     

下辽河平原—辽东湾的新构造运动

通过地质、地貌及地球物理资料分析研究,发现下辽河平原—辽东湾的新构造运动的主要特征除了断裂发育、火山活动早期剧烈而晚期衰弱、现代地震活跃以及地壳差异和反差升降运动明显之外,还显示了:(1)深大断裂的控制性,(2)沉降中心的迁移性,(3)构造运动的阶段性和旋回性.     

川西南周公山及邻区下二叠统碳酸盐岩成岩作用对储集性的影响

川西南周公山及邻区下二叠统的中-低孔、中-低渗碳酸盐岩储层的储集空间以次生成因的溶孔、溶洞和构造裂缝为主.研究认为,多世代方解石胶结、化学充填作用以及埋藏期的压实(溶)作用是孔隙很难得到保存的主要原因;同生-准同生期的混合水云化作用和表生期、埋藏期的流体溶蚀作用则产生了大量的次生溶孔、洞,使储层的孔渗性得到明显的改善;构造破裂作用可以产生新的储集空间,还影响各储集体之间及单一储集体内部空隙的连通.成岩相分为混合水云化-溶蚀-破裂相、溶蚀-胶结相和胶结-压实-压溶相.各种成岩作用的叠加形成了现今下二叠统油气储层的分布格局.

红旗渠是举世文明的引水工程,全长4 013.6 km.红旗渠沿线地质条件极为复杂,地质灾害频繁发生.林州市任村镇白家庄至尖庄一带为本次工作的勘查区,勘查中共发现零星崩塌3处,崩塌带1处、沟谷泥石流3处.本文针对发现的地质灾害的类型、规模、形态等进行描述并给以稳定性评价.     

红层泥岩水岩作用特征研究

红层是红色陆相沉积为主的碎屑沉积岩层,岩性以砂岩、泥岩、粉砂岩和页岩为主。该类岩层多为软岩与硬岩相间,呈互层状产出,层间结合力弱。受区域构造影响,岩层扭曲褶皱强烈,多中高倾角,结构面发育,有泥化现象。红层中的泥岩具有透水性弱、亲水性强,遇水易软化、塑变,抗风化能力弱,易崩解等特性。特别是遇水后岩体及结构面抗剪强度大幅度降低,并且具有遇水膨胀、失水收缩的工程特性。水岩作用对边坡的影响主要有,结构面遇水泥化导致楔形体失稳,泥岩塑性变形引起边坡蠕变,同时红层还具有很强的崩解性,边坡开挖后发生崩解等现象。

以塔里木盆地加里东期和海西两期构造运动为背景,结合现有的岩心、露头、测井、录井和地震资料,对巴楚组可识别出早期的辫状河三角洲沉积,中期的渴湖沉积和盐湖沉积,以及晚期的咸化溻湖沉积。本文分别从横向上和纵向上对塔河地区巴楚组沉积演化进行深入分析;总结了巴楚组构造运动与沉积响应之间的关系,以期为该地区的下石炭统巴楚组的进一步勘探提供科学依据。     

First finds of Late Tithonian and middle-late Albian radiolarian assemblages in volcanogenic-siliceous rocks of the Amur River right lower reaches and their tectonic significance

The lithological-stratigraphic study of volcanogenic-siliceous rocks developed on the left side of the Machtovaya River, a right tributary of the Amur River, yielded the first radiolarian assemblages of the late Late Tithonian, the late Late Tithonian-early Valanginian, and the middle-late Albian age. It is established that the stratigraphic succession of volcanogenic-siliceous rocks in this area is composed of upper Tithonian-Valanginian dark red to red-brown cherts with basalts in the lower part of the section and Albian dark gray clayey cherts, olive-gray siliceous-tuffaceous argillites, and tufaceous siltstones in its upper part. The replacement of cherts by their clayey varieties likely occurred in the Aptian. The composition, structure, and age of these strata and the rocks constituting the Kiselevka-Manoma accretionary complex are different, which indicates their different tectonic origin.
