北冰洋表层积雪中7Be、210Po和210Pb的分布特征

大气输送的放射性核素7Be、210Po和210Pb,可以作为研究北冰洋大气沉降通量、海洋现代沉积以及海冰中物质传输的重要示踪剂,已被广泛应用于包括气团运动、土壤侵蚀以及水系统中颗粒物循环过程的研究。本文报道了2018年北极高纬度浮冰区表层积雪中7Be、210Po和210Pb的活度特征。7Be、210Po和210Pb的比活度变化范围分别为33.6～632.68 mBq/L、36.2～87.5 mBq/L、30.9～194.49 mBq/L。本文的研究发现,北冰洋表层积雪中7Be和210Pb比活度小于中纬度大陆地区。研究区域表层积雪中7Be的比活度随着纬度的增加而增加。此外,表层积雪中210Po/210Pb活度比值范围为0.70～1.48 (平均为0.93),210Po与210Pb活度已基本达到平衡,表明积雪样品年龄可能较“老”。     

北太平洋亚热带环流区表层水的210Po/210Pb不平衡

对北太平洋亚热带环流区表层水中溶解态(＜0.2 μm)和颗粒态(≥0.2 μm)210 Po、210pb的含量、分布、停留时间及其在颗粒物清除迁出过程中的分馏效应开展了研究,结果表明,研究海域表层水中溶解态210Po、210Pb的比活度分别介于0.14 ～3.75和1.41 ～6.87 Bq/m3之间;颗粒态210Po、210Pb的比活度分别介于0.35 ～ 2.49和0.18 ～3.18 Bq/m3之间.溶解相和颗粒相中的210Po/210Pb不平衡状态呈现截然不同的特征,溶解相中210Po相对于210Pb呈亏损状态,而在颗粒相中则呈过剩状态,反映出210Po与210Pb生物地球化学行为的差异,210Po具有更强的颗粒(生物)活性.由稳态不可逆模型计算出溶解态和颗粒态210Po的平均停留时间分别为0.28、0.27 a;溶解态和颗粒态210Pb的平均停留时间分别为0.88、0.15 a.由清除速率常数法计算得到的溶解态210Po、210Pb在颗粒清除过程中的平均分馏因子为4.73,且该分馏因子随颗粒氮含量的增加呈增加的趋势.停留时间的差异以及明显大于1的分馏因子均表明,210Po、210Pb在颗粒清除过程中发生了明显的分馏,而分馏因子与颗粒氮(PN)之间存在的正相关关系则显示含氮组分对210 Po、210Pb的分馏起着一定的作用.     

基于210Pb与137Cs分布的近代沉积物定年方法——以巢湖、太白湖为例

对巢湖、太白湖沉积岩心中210Pb、137Cs活度进行了测试分析。结果表明,137Cs活度均低于20 Bq/kg,但具有明显的1963年蓄积峰;210Pbex活度随深度增加呈指数降低,指示了较为稳定的沉积特征。采用CIC、CRS模式计算得到的沉积岩心210Pb年代结果均偏离137Cs时标,反映了源自大气沉降的210Pb的流域输入以及湖泊水体中210Pb河流输出的共同影响。根据137Cs的1963年时标深度,把沉积岩心分为上下两段,依据210Pbex活度变化,分别采用不同公式进行沉积岩心年代计算。由此得到的巢湖与太白湖近百年来的沉积速率具有相似的变化规律,反映了长江中下游地区自然环境及人类活动对湖泊沉积记录影响的一致性。其中20世纪60年代初期,巢湖与太白湖主要入湖河流上游地区水库的建成投入使用,对入湖泥沙起到调蓄作用,使得沉积速率降低;20世纪70年代末期、80年代中期以来,巢湖与太白湖呈现较高的沉积速率,主要反映了流域农业发展等人类活动的影响;1991年与1999年洪水事件在沉积物中也有明显的表现。     

南海与厦门湾海水中210Po和210Pb的粒级分布

对南海和厦门湾表层水中210Po和210Pb的粒级分布特征进行了研究.结果表明,南海海水中210Po和210Pb在不同粒级颗粒物中的体积比活度高低顺序为:(＜0.4μm)＞(0.4～2.0 μm)＞(2.0～10 μm)＞(＞10μm).210Po、210Pb主要存在于＜2.0 μm粒级颗粒物中.厦门湾210Po体积比活度高低顺序为:(2.0～10 μm)＞(＜1.2μm)＞(＞10μm)＞(1.2～2.0 μm),210Po主要存在于＞2.0μm粒级颗粒物中.南海不同粒级颗粒物中210Pb的质量比活度差异不大,0.4～2.0 μm和2.0～10 μm粒级210Po质量比活度约为10μm粒级210Po比活度的3倍.厦门湾210Po的质量比活度比南海相应粒级210Po低约1个数量级,且各粒级间差异不大,表明不同粒径颗粒物在210Po和210Pb清除过程中的作用不同.210Po和210Pb的固-液分配系数(Kd)及分馏因子(α)进一步证实南海0.4～2.0 μm粒级颗粒物对210Po的清除能力比其它粒级颗粒物更强,而＞10μm粒级颗粒物对210Pb的清除能力比其它粒级颗粒物更强.不同粒级颗粒物中210Po与210Pb之间的不平衡状况揭示了不同粒级颗粒物不同的来源,为210Po/210Pb不平衡示踪颗粒物来源提供了依据.     

Behaviors of 210Pb and 210Po around hydrothermal vents in the Okinawa Trough

Vertical profiles for the uranium-series radioisotopes 210Pb and 210Po were obtained at thetwo hydrothermal vent sites, the Iheya Ridge and the Minami-Ensei Knoll, in the Mid-Okinawa Trough in 1993 and 1994, respectively. In 1995, both radioisotopes were measured at the Minami-Ensei Knoll a-gain. At the Iheya Ridge, where the hydrothermal activity is not active as reflected by the CH_4, and 222Rn data, both the total 210Pb and 210Po activities show deficiency relative to their parents, and the mean residence time of 210Pb and 210Po is approximately equal to 20 and 2-5 a, respectively. At the Minami-Ensei Knoll, which is characterized by black smokers, the total 210Pb(0.167 × 10~(-3)-2.5 × 10~(-3)_ Bq/kg) around the plumes is deficient relative to 226Ra but the total 210Po activities (1.83 × 10 ~(-3) - 2.83 × 10~(-3) Bq/kg) are in excess relative to 210Pb. The 210Po activities are higher than those in the East China Sea and the Okinawa Trough and excess 210Po has been found. The 210Pb/226Ra and 210Po/     

冲绳海槽海底热液喷出口附近海水中210Pb和210Po的行为

讨论了在冲绳海槽伊平屋海岭和南奄西海丘两处海底热液喷出口附近海水中的铀系子体放射性核素210Pb和210Po浓度的垂直分布剖面.在伊平屋海岭,甲烷及222Rn的数据表明海底热液活动不强,总210Pb和210Po放射性均低于它们各自母体的放射性,210Pb和210Po在海水中的平均停留时间分别为20和2～5a,而在以“黑色烟雾”为特征的海底热液活动强烈的南奄西海丘,在”烟雾”中的总210Pb含量(0.167×10-3～2.50×10-3Bq/kg)相对其母体226Ra贫乏,而总210Po含量(1.83×10-3～2.83×10-3Bq/kg)则相对其母体210Pb过剩.该处海水中的210Po的放射性高于东海陆架区及冲绳海槽其他海区,并且显示了210Po过剩.210Pb/226Ra以及210Po/210Pb放射性比值的范围分别为0.1～0.4和1.1～7.8.在热液扩散带中210Pb被优先从海水中清除.控制南奄西海丘海水中210Pb浓度的可能机制涉及到210Pb通过扩散作用的横向输送.在热液扩散带中高210Po/210Pb放射性比值表明210Pb的耗尽及210Po从海底热液喷出口的加入.     

青岛市7Be, 210Pb 和210Po大气沉降通量的测定

运用本实验室建立的大气沉降中7Be,210Pb的γ谱分析方法和210Po的α谱分析方法,测定了青岛大气沉降通量.结果表明,青岛市2002年4～11月大气沉降的7Be和210Pb通量平均为1.67和0.32 Bq/(m2·d);2004年5～9月7Be,210Pb和210Po通量平均值为2.15,0.51和0.083 Bq/(m2·d).     

Radiocaesium and 210Pb in Clyde sea loch sediments

Analysis of ²¹⁰Pb, ²²⁶Ra, ¹³⁷Cs and ¹³⁴Cs in short sediment cores provide first estimates of deposition rates in some Clyde sea lochs. The radio-caesium nuclides originate mainly in the liquid effluent released at distance from the Clyde by the Windscale nuclear fuel reprocessing plant and their concentrations in Clyde sediments provide information on (a) enrichment factors onto particulate matter, (b) surficial mixing coefficients and (c) sedimentation rates. A radiocaesium residence time in coastal waters of ca. 10³ years reflects the importance of scavenging by the high nearshore particulate flux. ²¹⁰Pb levels in sediments are controlled, in the unsupported fraction, by a major input sorbed on catchment particulates and, in the supported component, by ²²⁶Ra activities occasionally perturbed by unusually high surface values probably of planktonic origin. In one loch, detectable levels of ¹³⁴Cs and ⁶⁰Co are attributed to their discharge by nuclear submarines.     

冬季台湾海峡210Po和210Pb的分布特征及颗粒物的输出

~(210) Po and ~(210) Pb are increasingly used to constrain particle dynamics in the open oceans, however they are less used in coastal waters. Here, distributions and partitions of ~(210) Po and ~(210) Pb were examined in the Taiwan Strait, as well as their application to quantify particle sinking. Activity concentrations of dissolved ~(210) Po and ~(210) Pb(0.6 μm)ranged from 1.21 to 7.63 dpm/(100 L) and from 1.07 to 6.33 dpm/(100 L), respectively. Activity concentrations of particulate ~(210) Po and ~(210) Pb varied from 1.96 to 36.74 dpm/(100 L) and from 3.11 to 38.06 dpm/(100 L). Overall,particulate ~(210) Po and ~(210) Pb accounted for the majority of the bulk ~(210) Po and ~(210) Pb. 210 Po either in dissolved or particulate phases showed similar spatial patterns to 210 Pb, indicating similar mechanisms for controlling the distributions of ~(210) Po and ~(210) Pb in the Taiwan Strait. The different fractionation coefficients indicated that particles in the Zhemin Coastal Current(ZCC) inclined to absorb 210 Po prior to 210 Pb while they showed an opposite effect in the Taiwan Warm Current(TWC). Based on the disequilibria between ~(210) Po and ~(210) Pb, the sinking fluxes of total particulate matter(TPM) were estimated to range from –0.22 to 3.84 g/(m2·d), showing an overall comparable spatial distribution to previous reported sediment accumulation rates. However, our sinking fluxes were lower than the sedimentation rates, indicating a sediment resuspension in winter and horizontal transport of particulate matter from the Taiwan Strait to the East China Sea.     

210Pb法在测定沉积速率中的应用

~(2l0)Pb是~(226)Ra衰变后的一个子体产物。~(210)Ra吸附到大气尘埃、气溶胶上,或吸附到兩、雪中,沉降下来,参与陆地水系的循环。海水中也有~(226)Ra,它同样也能衰变为~(210)Pb,因此,大气沉降、大陆径流和水体中~(226)Ra的衰变是海水中~(210)Pb的来源。~(210)Pb在海水中很容易被粘土和有机质悬浮颗粒吸附,或与铁     

DETERMINATION OF 210Pb IN MARINE SEDIMENTS AND ITS APPLICATION TO GEOCHRONOLOGY

A method of electrodeposit-PbSO4 precipitation-β counting has been developed for the determination of 210Pb in marine sediments. The chemical yield of lead is 85-90%, coincident with radiochemical yield. The decontamination factors for 90Sr, 106Ru, 137Cs, 60Co, 65Zn, 55+59Fe and 54Mn are greater than 103. The precision is 2.9%. The typical 210Pb profiles of five cores were successfully obtained in the Changjiang Estuary and adjacent continental shelf. The sedimentation rates of the cores from five stations of G8132, G8133.G8134, G8135 and G8139 are 0.72, 0.86, 0.37, 0.33 and 0.42 cm/yr respectively.     

THE SEPARATION AND DETERMINATION OF 210Pb IN THE COASTAL MARINE SEDIMENTS

A procedure for the separation and determination of ~(210)Pb in the coastal marine sediments is presented, in which a modified anion-exchange process is used for separating andpurifying of ~(210)Pb. The stable Pb carrier was added along with enough 6M HC1 to 5—10g of ignited sediment. The mixture was heated and leached for two hours. After centrifu-
