西藏当雄错—姆错丙尼地区早二叠世拉嘎组及杂砾岩成因探讨

本文通过1：25万《邦多区幅》和《措麦区福》区域地质调查，对西藏当雄错－姆错丙尼地区的早二叠世拉嘎组进行了地层生物及杂砾岩特征的研究，认为：所采生物化石均赋存于滑塌块体中，反映的地质时期为早二叠世Sakmarian-Artinskian期，而赋含滑塌块体的“基质”地层时代应稍晚于早二叠世Sakmarian-Artinskian期；沉积特征表明杂砾岩成因具冰海相和水下块体重力流的双重（复合）性质。     

西藏文部一姆错丙尼地区早二叠世拉嘎组——兼述杂砾岩形成环境与成因

通过1∶250000邦多区幅和措麦区幅区域地质调查,对西藏文部—姆错丙尼地区的早二叠世拉嘎组进行了地层古生物及杂砾岩特征的研究,发现赋存于滑塌块体中的生物化石反映的地质时期为早二叠世Sakmarian—Artinskian期,而滑塌块体的“基质”地层时代应稍晚于早二叠世Sakmarian—Artinskian期;沉积特征表明杂砾岩成因具冰海相和水下块体重力流的复合(双重)性质。     

西藏中南部雄马—措麦以南地区早、中二叠世地层及其意义

在西藏中南部雄马—措麦以南地区前人所定的属于中—晚侏罗世达雄群中采获了古生物化石，地层时代重新厘定为早—中二叠世。早二叠世早期拉嘎组中赋含重力滑塌块体和冰川漂砾，早二叠世晚期昂杰组碎屑岩中夹大量火山岩，中二叠世下拉组含大量火山岩碎屑等，与冈底斯—腾冲地层区广泛出露的早—中二叠世地层比较，岩性组合特征、沉积类型、沉积相、生物富集程度和属种组分及所处地质背景等诸方面均存在显著差异。该套地层的确定，对研究西藏早、中二叠世地层沉积相，重塑古地理环境，以及研究青藏高原和邻区特提斯构造发展阶段的地层演化、盆地构造背景等都有重要意义。     

东昆仑南坡早二叠世灰岩块体的来源与成因探讨

论述了对东昆仑南坡早二叠世灰岩块体的成因的新认识。（１）在前人所称的三叠纪地层中发现了中薄层生物或生物碎屑灰岩,其中产有大量保存完好的早二叠苞类化石,所以该区早二叠世灰岩块体与其周围砂板岩及中薄层灰岩之间应属于同期上沉积。（２）该区早二叠世礁灰岩之下常伴生有砾岩及乐岩,而非礁相灰岩周转则常常缺乏砂砾岩,这种分布特征是礁上体系沉积的必然结果,但很难用推覆体来加以解释。（３）通过对砂砾岩与灰岩块体之间的地层序列研究,发现它们之间属于一种沉积接触关系,而非推覆体的关系,由于该地区早二叠世灰炭块体的成因对于该区大地构造的解释至关重要,因此这些新发发现将引起人们对该区大地构造的演化历史进行了重新思考。     

长江源各拉丹冬一带发现Gallowayinella Ting类动物群

在1：25万赤布张错幅区域地质调查中，于原划下二叠统开心岭石灰岩组中发现晚二叠世长头期Gallowayinella Ting类动物群化石，表明该区二叠纪地层非属早二叠世，而似应与青海省南部晚二叠世鸟丽群对比。     

大兴安岭南部下三叠统幸福之路组的建立及其地质意义

幸福之路组广泛分布于大兴安岭南部地区,该组可分为三个岩性段。下段为杂色砾岩,厚173～342m,平行不整合于上二叠统林西组之上;中段为紫红色杂砂岩及粉砂岩,一般厚520m;上段为细粒碎屑岩,厚860m以上,其顶部被上侏罗统地层所不整合覆盖。在上段地层中含丰富的双壳类、叶肢介、植物等化石,具有晚二叠世—早三叠世生物相混生特点。但从区域地层对比来看,该组在岩性及构造变形方面,与晚二叠世地层存在明显差异,其时代应归属于早三叠世沉积更为妥当。     

内蒙古大青山煤田晚古生代砾岩的沉积特征

大青山煤田晚古生代地层中有 1 4层沉积砾岩。其中,晚石炭世地层中赋存 8层,二叠世 6层。通过对这些砾岩层的野外测量、室内岩矿鉴定等综合分析研究,查明晚石炭世的砾岩几乎全是稳定的单成分砾岩,石英砂岩和燧石质砾石的含量高达 93 %以上,砾石最大扁平面均向南倾,倾角在 5° - 1 0°之间,与砾岩伴生的粗粒石英砂岩发育大型低角度双向交错层理,萨胡环境判别参数等特征表明晚石炭世砾岩为滨海环境下的产物。二叠世的砾岩则主要是复杂成分的砾岩,尤其是早二叠世晚期及晚二叠世初期形成的 2层砾岩中砾石种类达 1 5种,以中酸性火山岩和火山碎屑岩砾石为主,并含较多量的变质岩和中酸性侵入岩砾石,砾岩层各种特征表明二叠世砾岩为河流相产物。大青山煤田晚古生代沉积砾岩的形成与北部造山带的隆升密切相关,它们是前陆盆地的沉积产物。     

贵州六盘水地区早二叠世岩石地层之再认识

贵州六盘水地区早二叠世发育一套层序完整、相区分异明显的沉积记录。通过普立幅等1∶5万区域地质调查和前人对该区地层划分对比研究,认为其岩石地层划分仍有商榷之处。为了更好的反映研究区早二叠世岩石地层的时空展布关系,建立区域地层格架,本文将区内早二叠世地层拟定为三个岩石地层单位及三个非正式岩石地层单位:即龙吟组、包磨山组、平川组和薄板灰岩、鱼塘灰岩、肖坪灰岩。该成果对研究NW向裂陷槽早二叠时期在六盘水地区的充填序列、岩相古地理特征等提供了新的基础资料。

西藏申扎地区德日昂玛-下拉剖面：冈瓦纳和特提斯晚石炭世-早二叠世地层和古生物对比的桥梁

西藏北部申扎县永珠地区德日昂玛-下拉剖面中石炭系和二叠系地层发育完整,出露良好,化石丰富。该剖面中查果罗玛组碳酸盐岩地层(泥盆纪—早石炭世)和下拉组(中二叠世)碳酸盐岩地层之间的碎屑岩夹灰岩地层,在沉积上表现为冰海相杂砾岩,在古生物化石面貌上表现为特提斯-冈瓦纳古生物群混生。古生物群混生的现象为石炭纪—二叠纪的特提斯生物区与冈瓦纳生物区之间的地层和古生物对比建立了一座桥梁。永珠组中上部地层中同时产有牙形石和腕足类,牙形石的研究表明其时代为晚石炭世莫斯科期,而腕足类的研究则表明其为早二叠世萨克马尔期。这一矛盾预示着在(亲)冈瓦纳相地区晚石炭世晚期地层缺失的意见需要重新审视。     

Unity of the national and the international in the socio-cultural development of the peoples of the USSR

International unity is becoming ever stronger in this country owing to an increasing similarity in the development of the cultural environment. This comprises the provision of all the country's republics with a sufficient number of schools, theatres, and other institutions and cultural information media in accordance with the needs of the population. An important part is played by the rise in ‘the general educational level, as well as the level of professional qualifications and skills. Among all the Soviet nations and nationalities, this rise being more rapid among formerly backward peoples. Prominent among the factors of internationalization is the progressive development of the nationalities’ cultural resources, while professional culture is being increasingly brought within the reach of the masses.The implementation of the nationalities policy promotes the all-round development of all Soviet nations and nationalities, their drawing together, the upsurge of the individual capabilities of every Soviet citizen.     

Report of the restudy of the defined global stratotype of the base of the Silurian System

The Global Stratotype Section and Point （GSSP） for the base of the Silurian System was defined in 1985. Since that time, a number of researchers have suggested that this section has serious deficiencies for use as a GSSP. As a result, in 2000, the Subcommission on Silurian Stratigraphy （SSS） proposed undertaking a formal restu@ of this GSSP, which was subsequently approved by the International Commission of Stratigraphy （ICS）. The result of this restudy was the formal proposal that the current GSSP, at 1.6 m above the base of the Birkhill Shale, at Dob＇s Linn, Scotland, should be maintained as the same locality and stratigraphic level, but the bios- tratigraphical definition of the boundary should be revised. The previously defined, basal Silurian grapto- lite zone, the Parakidograptus acuminatus Zone, should be subdivided into a lower Akidograptus ascensus Zone and a higher E acuminatus Zone. The base of the A. ascensus Zone, marked by the first appearance of A. ascensus, should be regarded as the biostratigraphic mark for the base of the Silurian. This proposal has now been formally approved by the SSS and ICS, and ratified by International Union of Geological Sciences. This is the first GSSP to undergo formal restudy and redefini- tion, and the proposal also included a recommended procedure for restudy of GSSPs.     

Deviation of the major axis of the inertia ellipsoid of the Moon from the direction toward the Earth

It is known from observations that the center of mass of the Moon does not coincide with the geometric center of its figure, and the line connecting these two centers is not aligned with the direction toward the center of the Earth, instead deviating toward the Southeast. This stationary deviation of the axis of the inertia ellipsoid of the Moon to the South of the direction toward the Earth is analyzed. A system of five linear differential equations describing the physical libration of the Moon in latitude is considered, and these equations are derived using a new vector method taking into account perturbations from the Earth and partly from the Sun. The characteristic equation of this system is obtained, and all five oscillation frequencies are found. Special attention is paid to the fifth (zero) frequency, for which the solution of the latitude libration equations are stationary and represents a previously unknown additional motion of the rotational axis of theMoon in a cone with a small opening angle. In contrast to the astronomical precession of the Earth, the rotation of the angular-velocity vector is in the positive direction (counter-clockwise), with the period T ₃ = 27.32 days. On this basis, this phenomenon has been named “quasi-precession.” This quasi-precession leads to a stationary inclination of the major axis of the inertia ellipsoid of theMoon to the South (for an observer on Earth), making it possible to explain one component of the observed deviation of the center of mass of the Moon from the direction toward the Earth. The opening angle of the quasiprecession cone is approximately 0.834″.     

The Tendencies of the Development of the Mineral-Resources Sector at the Turn of the Century

Important tendencies in development of the world mineral-resources sector at the beginning of the 21st century were an increase in production and consumption of mineral materials differentiated by types of metals and nonmetallic mineral raw materials, by countries and regions, as well as the concentration of the production of mineral raw materials in a small number of countries, and a reduction in industrial reserves of minerals in the world economy, even at the current stage of their extraction. These tendencies should be taken into account in working out a strategy for development of the Russian mineral raw-material base.     

Causes of the famine among the rural population of the Sahelian zone of the Sudan

Taking the example of W Sudan, an analysis of the climatic incidents leading to the two recent famine disasters is made. On this natural background, the human side is investigated. Focus is directed towards the fragile economic structure of the famine-prone population groups. An early-warning system for famine in the Sahelian Zone is proposed taking grain production and storage, livestock development and the relationship between the prices of livestock and grain as major indicators.     

东濮凹陷北部沙河街组三段中亚段沉积环境分析

东濮凹陷北部沙三中亚段广泛发育盐岩和烃源岩,这两个看似不能共存的物质却在这里互层共生。该时期研究区沉积特征为多盐韵律与多层烃源岩互层共生、连续沉积,单个盐韵律厚度从几米到十几米,烃源岩有机质丰度高、类型好。平面上,两者在湖盆沉积沉降中心共生;垂向上,高有机质丰度、好干酪根类型与高盐度地层具有较好的对应关系。因而成为恢复古气候和古环境的重要研究对象。通过岩石学、古生物学以及Sr/Ba、B/Ga、(V+Ni+Mn)、Fe/Mn、Sr/Cu、Mg/Ca、V/(V+Ni)、稀土元素含量和氯同位素等方法对凹陷北部沙三中亚段的沉积环境进行研究。结果表明,凹陷北部沙三中亚段为深水沉积的还原环境,古盐度较高,达到半咸水-咸水沉积;微量元素和孢粉化石特征表明研究区沙三中亚段为温暖潮湿的环境。     

On the consistency of proposed models for the Pyrenees with the structure of the eastern parts of the belt

The structure of the eastern Pyrenees consists mainly of south-directed thrusts involving basement and cover rocks. An antiformal stack developed by the piling up of basement thrust sheets which outcrop in the Axial zone. These structures account for a thin-skinned thrust model rather than a vertical fault model in which the Axial zone would be essentially autochthonous, and the North-Pyrenean fault the axial plane of a fan thrust system. New data from the Eastern Pyrenees and the thin-skinned model suggest that(1) the structure east of the Pedraforca nappe is similar to that of the Central Pyrenees; (2) the cover rocks of the South-Pyrenean units and of the Axial zone-after restoration—built up a northwards-thickening prism consistent with the existence of a unique Pyrenean sedimentary basin during Mesozoic time; (3) the Axial zone is only a complex antiformal stack developed as a part of South-Pyrenean system related to the Paleogene thrusting-tectonics. The Axial zone palaeogeographic area had no special meaning during Mesozoic time.     

The Importance of the Precipitation and the Susceptibility of the Slopes for the Triggering of Landslides Along the Roads

In order to characterise the influence of the heavyrains on the observed landslides during the 1996–1997hydrological cycle, rainfall records for the last 100years are analysed from 104 stations in easternAndalusia. Regarding the amounts of rain recordedbetween October 1996 and March 1997 in the 104stations studied, 31 presented new all-time records;15 presented values that were 80–100% of thepre-1995 record; 49 stations, 80–50%; and 9stations, < 50%. A map has been devised of thesusceptibility of the materials through which thesouth-eastern Andalusian road network crosses,together with an inventory of the damage caused byinstability phenomena on banks and cuttings of theroad network during the winter of 1996–1997. Therelationships between the rainfall during the studyperiod, the damage caused to the road network and thesusceptibility of the materials affected are analysed.The results indicate that there is a clearcorrespondence between the rainfall recorded and thesusceptibility of the materials with the inventorieddamage. It is concluded that the widespread seriousdamage caused in early 1997 to the roads andsurrounding areas in the Alpujarra region and thecoast of the Province of Granada was mainly caused bythe extraordinarily heavy rains. However, considerablyless damage was observed where the susceptibility ofthe terrain is low, thus highlighting the extremeusefulness of terrain-susceptibility maps for riskprevention and territorial planning.
