河北阳原东目连第四纪叠层石古环境分析

组成阳原县东目连湖积台地的第四纪“泥河湾层”地层中,发育多层藻迹层和一层“菜花形”、“锥体状”大叠层石(个体高20 cm),大叠层石层延伸1 km,构成古藻坪微地貌。经OSL和古地磁测试,大叠层石年龄推测为220 ka左右。镜下叠层石片子中见蓝藻门的纤细席藻种Phormidium tenue(Menegh)Genegh和湖泊鞘丝藻种Lyngbya Limnetica Lemmermann等。不同形态叠层石反映不同发育阶段,藻迹发育于高水位边缘部位,大叠层石发育于高水位与低水位之间边缘部位。亮层和暗层交替出现的纹层构造是组成叠层石的基本结构构造,它们是由蓝藻丝体生长代谢活动所致。据同位素、磁化率、粒度、地球化学元素、X衍射、孢粉和生物化石等分析,认为气候暖干、盐度高及大量苔藓虫、介形虫、龙介科蠕虫等生物存在的环境有利于大叠层石形成。叠层石可能属半咸水湖、滨湖浅水环境,但据首次在第四纪泥河湾层中发现的苔藓虫和龙介科蠕虫管分析,其成因是否与海水有过联系尚待进一步研究。     

Cambrian- Ordovician Deep - Water Deposits in Southwest Jiangxi, China

The Cambrian-Ordovician rocks in southwestern Jiangxi are mainly composed of deep-water deposits, in which 5 facies have been recognized: sandstone facies, sandstone-mudstone facies, siltstone-mudstone facies, mudstone (slate)facies, and chert facies. They are of turbidity current origin and are related to pelagic and hemipelagic deposits. In the light of facies distribution, the Cambrian-Ordovician deposits can be classified into 3 facies associations formed in middle fan, outer fan and deep-sea plain environments respectively. The 3 different orders of vertical cycles in the stratigraphic sequence are considered to be controlled by factors such as sea-level fluctuation, basin subsidence and submarine fan progradation. The tectonic setting of the sedimentary basin is interpreted as passive continental margin based on the chemical composition analysis of the sandstone.     

Changes of Atmospheric Circulation since the LastInterstadial as Indicated by the Lake-statusRecord in China

The effective precipitation and the frame of atmospheric circulation in the past three key periods, i.e. 30 ka BP, 18 ka BP and 6 ka BP, have been analyzed on the basis of the palaeolake status record produced by the Chinese Lake Status Data Base. The results show that the west-central part of China was characterized by high lake-levels at 30 ka BP, resulting from strengthened southwest monsoons; whereas the high lake stand, occurring in the west-central part of China at 18 ka BP, was caused by the southward shift and the strengthening of westerlies although the high-stand distribution was reduced. Meanwhile, the east-central part of China was under the control of strong winter monsoons at 18 ka BP. The high lake-levels, which occurred in the east-central part of China at 6 ka BP, are related to the enhanced East-Asian summer monsoons; while the lowering of the lake-level in the west-central part of China at 6 ka BP was due to the northward shift and corresponding shrink of the westerlies.A comparison b     

[专稿]太湖梅梁湾2007年蓝藻水华形成及取水口污水团成因分析与应急措施建议

2007年4月25日起太湖梅梁湾暴发了大规模藻类水华暴发时间比过去提前近1个月.根据中国科学院太湖湖泊生态系统国家野外科学观测研究站的监测,5月2日梅梁湾所有测点藻类叶绿素a含量全部超过40μg/L,其中三山-鼋头渚水域达179μg/L;5月27日的卫星影像图片显示,太湖北部的竺山湾和贡湖湾以及整个西部湖区均发生了大面积的蓝藻水华;随后5月28日晚,无锡贡湖湾口南泉水厂发生污水团进入水厂取水口恶化水源水质事件,给人民的日常生活带来了短暂的影响.     

稀土元素：海相硅岩沉积环境的有效指标

世界范围内海水的REE研究表明,不同环境海水的REE有一定的差异.海相硅质沉积也显示出与周围海水相似的REE特征,其中最明显的是Ce异常。对已知沉积环境的硅岩所作REE研究说明,利用硅岩的REE特征可以帮助判别海相沉积环境。江西南部寒武—奥陶系中广泛产出厚层的层状硅岩,根据Ce的异常,推测此区硅岩形成于大陆边缘—大洋盆地的过渡地区。
