安徽宣城地区中晚更新世风成堆积与环境变迁

通过对宣城向阳中晚更新世沉积剖面的综合研究,认为该剖面与中国北方同时代的黄土—古土壤剖面相比较,虽然长江下游以南地区中晚更新世多个冰期中风成堆积的单层厚度与累积厚度,亦即风成物质的沉积通量与沉积速率均比北方黄土区要小,但它们所反映的气候与环境的变化具有明显的可比性。     

Glaciomarine sedimentation and palaeo-glacial setting of Maxwell Bay and its tributary embayment, Marian Cove, South Shetland Islands, West Antarctica

High-resolution (3.5 kHz and multi-channel) seismic profiles and piston cores were collected from Maxwell Bay and its tributary embayment, Marian Cove, in the South Shetland Islands, Antarctica, during the Korea Antarctic Research Program (1992/93 and 1995/96) to elucidate the glaciomarine sedimentation processes and recent glacial history of the area. Seismic data from Maxwell Bay reveal a rugged bay margin and flattened basin floor covered with well-stratified hemipelagic muds. On the base-of-slope, acoustically transparent debris flows occur, indicating downslope resedimentation of glaciomarine sediments. Despite the subpolar and ice-proximal settings of Marian Cove, the seafloor is highly rugged with a thin sediment drape, suggesting that much of the area has been recently eroded by glaciers. Sediment cores from the cove penetrated three distinct fining-upward lithofacies: (1) basal till in the lower part of the core, accumulated just seaward of the grounding line of the tidewater glacier; (2) interlaminated sand and mud in the middle part, deposited in ice-proximal zone by a combination of episodic subglacial meltwater inflow and iceberg dumping; and (3) pebbly mud in the upper part, deposited in ice-distal zone by both surface meltwater plume and ice-rafting from the glacier front. A reconstruction of the glacial history of these areas since the late glacial maximum shows an ice sheet filling Maxwell Bay in late Wisconsin time and grounding of the tidewater glacier in Marian Cove until about 1300 yr BP.

１９９０年用铀系年代学及古地磁对昆特依盐湖沉积物进行年代测定，探讨该湖区地球化学演化与古气候变化关系。结果表明，该区最老的盐层形成于早更新世晚期（大于７３０ｋａ），大量的盐类沉积则始于３００ｋａ左右；盐湖沉积物中元素含量变化主要受古盐度、矿物、类质同象和吸附控制；沉积物水溶Ｆ／Ｃｌ比值与古盐度成反比关系；该湖２０００ｋａ以来的古环境演变：盐层形成于干冷、偏酸性的氧化环境，泥岩层形成于湿暖、偏碱性的

Simulation of green water flow on deck using non-linear dam breaking theory

Experiments carried out with models of floating production, storage and offloading platforms (FPSOs) showed that the flow of water over the deck edge, onto the deck resembled a suddenly released wall of water rather than a breaking wave. Therefore green water flow onto the deck was simulated using dam breaking theory, but the theory’s shallow-water assumptions may be limiting. In this paper a non-linear dam breaking problem is formulated. Equations of motion in the Lagrangian form are used and the solution is sought as an infinite series in time. Comparisons with the shallow water approximation are carried out.

大亚湾海域锥状斯氏藻赤潮及其与孢囊的关系

用沉积物捕捉器取样，研究了大亚湾海域２０００年６～９月孢囊（Ｃｙｓｔ）种群动态，同时 分析了浮游植物种群动态。研究期间（８～９月）该海域发生了一起大规模的锥状斯氏藻赤潮。 赤潮前一个月，锥状斯氏藻孢囊的平均日形成率为２．０５× １０５ｃｙｓｔｓ／（ｍ２·ｄ），丰度为５０．２２％， 该时期以有性生殖产生的静止期孢囊为主；在赤潮盛期的８，９月初，孢囊的平均日形成率达到 ２．０１ ×１０６ｃｙｓｔｓ／（ｍ２·ｄ），丰度为９６．９７％，此时期的孢囊多为营养细胞所形成的暂时性孢囊； 赤潮结束后，由于环境条件的恶化，暂时性孢囊的形成达到高峰，平均日形成率为１．２４×ｌ０７ ｃｙｓｔｓ／（ ｍ２·ｄ），丰度为９９.５３％。结果表明大亚湾丰富的孢囊是潜在的种源（Ｓｅｅｄ　ｂｅｄ），２０００年 的夏季、秋李持续高温（＞２５℃），台风减少及风力减弱等有利锥状斯氏藻的环境条件诱发孢 囊萌发，开始了该种类的赤潮。

浙江宁波地区第四纪自然环境变迁

第四纪自然环境的变迁,作为地球环境演変过程的最新一幕,对人类的生存和发展有着重要的意义。近年来,我们对中国东部沿海地区第四纪地质和海岸演化进行了研究,通过沉积物中孢粉和微体古生物等资料,对古气候及植被变化、海陆变迁等自然环境演变问题作了初步分析。宁波地区的研究是其中的一部分。 宁波滨海平原,地处东海之滨、杭州湾南岸,三面环山,一面临海,面积仅850平方公里。本区的第四纪地质调查主要是由浙江省地质局等有关单位进行的。我们利用浙江省地质局第六地质大队提供的钻探岩芯祥品,作了孢粉、微体古生物、软体动物化石分析,并委托中国科学院地球化学研究所C14实验室,作了部分样品的测年。本文总结已获得的资料,提出宁波地区第四纪自然环境演变的初步认识。     

A climatology of mesoscale model simulated low-level wind jets over Cook Inlet and Shelikof Strait, Alaska

Weather in the North Gulf of Alaska is characterized by a high frequency of deep synoptic-scale low-pressure systems, especially during the cold season. The strong pressure gradients of these storms interact with the extremely rugged terrain of the coastal mountains to produce a variety of channeled flows. These surface wind regimes are not well documented in the scientific community, due to the paucity of observations. Modeling of these phenomena in regions of complex terrain is of great interest to those working with hydrodynamic, wave, and pollutant transport models in coastal and shelf areas. Such models, when coupled with ocean and coastal-ecology counterparts, give a broad view of the role surface winds play in shaping local coastal marine ecosystem in this region. This paper presents a climatology of simulated low-level wind jets over the domain of Cook Inlet and Shelikof Strait along Alaska's south-central coast. Daily simulations using the RAMS model were conducted in a 36-h forecast mode for the cold-season period 10/1/03 to 3/31/04. Systematic analysis of the resulting simulated low-level wind field makes it possible to characterize these jets and gap flows in spatial and temporal detail. The comparison between the RAMS winds and the Synthetic Aperture Radar (SAR)-derived winds when available verifies the existence of these wind jets and the capability of the model to simulate these cases. Clearly, the results of a study in this region depend on the fidelity of the model at these scales (O[5 km]). The SAR comparisons attempt to help establish this. From the 6 months of simulations over Cook Inlet and Shelikof Strait, the low-level wind jets are classified into 10 different regimes by location and orientation. These regimes are categorized into four more general groups: cross-channel westerly, easterly, and up and down Inlet flows. The nature of a particular regime is largely a function of pressure gradient orientation and local topography. Jets in the same group have a similar occurrence distribution with time. Some form of jet occurred in the study region almost daily each month of the period, with December 2003 having the highest frequency of wind jets.
