DISTRIBUTION OF 2-D MAGNETIC SADDLE POINTS AND MORPHOLOGY OF FLARE KERNELS IN SOLAR ACTIVE REGIONS

We extrapolated the 3-D fields above the photosphere, taking the observed photospheric magnetic fields in the active regions NOAA 6659 and 7321 as the boundary conditions of a linear force-free field model, and detected the singular points of the 2-D fields in a plane at the chromospheric level. These singular points can be described with the Poincaré index. Singular points with the index of +1 correspond to concentrations of magnetic flux, and those with the index of -1 to the saddle points in the plane. All of these singular points are connected by the lanes demarcating the 2-D magnetic cells in the plane. It has been confirmed that these saddle points are the intersections between separators and planes intersecting the 3-D fields. From comparisons between kernels of flares occurring in both regions and the saddle points, we found that there is a close morphological relationship between distributions of the saddle points and flare kernels. The main results are as follows: (a) The flare kernels tend to appear in areas with concentrating 2-D saddle points. (b) The morphology of the kernels is exactly confined by the lanes in the plane at chromospheric level. These facts seem favourable for the viewpoint that solar flares are closely related to magnetic separatrices and separators.     

Triassic Nb-enriched basalts, magnesian andesites, and adakites of the Qiangtang terrane (Central Tibet): evidence for metasomatism by slab-derived melts in the mantle wedge

New chronological, geochemical, and isotopic data are reported for Triassic (219–236 Ma) adakite-magnesian andesite-Nb-enriched basaltic rock associations from the Tuotuohe area, central Qiangtang terrane. The adakites and magnesian andesites are characterized by high Sr/Y (25–45), La/Yb (14–42) and Na₂O/K₂O (12–49) ratios, high Al₂O₃ (15.34–18.28 wt%) and moderate to high Sr concentrations (220–498 ppm) and ε_ND (t) (+0.86 to +1.21) values. Low enrichments of Th, Rb relative to Nb, and subequal normalized Nb and La contents, and enrichments of light rare earth elements combine to distinguish a group of Nb-enriched basaltic rocks (NEBs). They have positive ε_ND (t) (+2.57 to +5.16) values. Positive correlations between Th, La and Nb and an absence of negative Nb anomalies on mantle normalized plots indicate the NEBs are products of a mantle source metasomatized by a slab melt rather than by hydrous fluids. A continuous compositional variation between adakites and magnesian andesites confirms slab melt interaction with mantle peridotite. The spatial association of the NEBs with adakites and magnesian andesites define an “adakitic metasomatic volcanic series” recognized in many demonstrably subduction-related environments (e.g., Mindanao arc, Philippines; Kamchatka arc, Russia; and southern Baja California arc, Mexico). The age of the Touhuohe suite, and its correlation with Triassic NEB to the north indicates that volcanism derived from subduction-modified mantle was abundant prior to 220 Ma in the central Qiangtang terrane.     

非活动大陆边缘的天然气水合物及其成藏过程述评

非活动陆缘是板块活动相对较弱的地区，也是水合物发育的有利地区。通过对世界各地非活动陆缘地区水合物富集情况的系统分析，发现断褶组合构造、底辟构造以及“麻坑”地貌（Pockmark)与水合物的关系密切。尽管模拟海底反射层（Bottom Simulating Reflector,简称BSR，下同）是最重要的水合物识别标志，但水合物与BSR之间并不存在严格的一一对应关系。非活动陆缘具有丰富的烃类物质来源和适宜的温压条件，而断裂－褶皱组合构造、垒堑式构造和底辟构造等则为烃类气体的运移、富集和成藏提供了有利的构造环境，便于最终形成水合物。非活动陆缘的深水区往往发育有多期叠合盆地，因其物源、温压、构造和沉积条件的内在关联性，常常形成深部石油、中部天然气、浅部水合物的“三位一体”烃类能源结构模式。

扬子东部冶山和山里陈埃达克质侵入岩年代学与地球化学:岩石成因和动力学意义

冶山和山里陈岩体构造上属于扬子地块东部,毗邻郯庐断裂带东侧,主要岩石类型为石英闪长玢岩。它们的单矿物(角闪石,黑云母)40Ar/39Ar坪年龄分别为131.22±0.77 Ma和130.07±0.48 Ma。冶山和山里陈岩体具有与埃达克岩类似的地球化学特征,如w(SiO2)>56%,高Al2O3[w(Al2O3)=14.95%～17.67%]、Sr[w(Sr)=495×10-6～2086×10-6]、Sr/Y(44～159)和La/Yb(26～68),低重稀土元素,如w(Yb)=0.82×10-6～1.56×10-6),w(Y)=9.14×10-6～20.32×10-6,无明显-正Eu异常(δEu=0.90～1.11)。另外,样品普遍具有较高的MgO[w(MgO)=2.01%～4.98%]、IMg(45～71)和Cr[w(Cr)=19.2×10-6～199×10-6]、Ni[w(Ni)=13.8×10-6～58.8×10-6]。它们的Sr-Nd-Pb同位素特征为:(87 Sr/86 Sr)i=0.7059～0.7062,εNd(t)=-14.75～-12.15,(206 Pb/204 Pb)t=16.082～16.847,(207 Pb/204 Pb)t=15.303～15.461,(208Pb/204Pb)t=35.889～36.919。冶山和山里陈埃达克质侵入岩可能是由于扬子与华北地块在三叠纪的碰撞及扬子地块东部的地壳拆离作用,导致下地壳增厚并发生拆沉熔融,岩浆在上升过程中与地幔橄榄岩发生了反应。郯庐断裂带两侧早白垩世时期的埃达克(质)岩可能形成于断裂带早白垩世时期由左行平移向伸展活动转变的阶段,其源动力很可能是受到滨太平洋板块构造的影响。
