云南异龙湖沉积物粒度空间变化特征及其环境指示意义

文章以滇东南浅水湖泊异龙湖作为研究对象,通过对湖泊不同位置的40个表层沉积物样品进行粒度测试,结合流域自然地理要素和人类活动特征,分析了异龙湖表层沉积物粒度空间分布特征,并探讨了其影响因素。结果表明,异龙湖表层沉积物沉积类型主要有粘土质粉砂、粉砂质粘土以及砂-粉砂-粘土3种,其中以粘土质粉砂类型为主,其次为粉砂质粘土。粉砂(4~63μm)为异龙湖表层沉积物优势粒径成分,其含量介于57.08%~82.41%,其次为粘土(小于4μm),介于11.22%~35.58%,砂组分(大于63μm)含量最低,含量介于0.16%~25.80%。异龙湖表层沉积物具有明显的空间分布特征,其中粉砂类似同心圆的空间分布特征,其含量由湖区的中间地带分别向西北、西南、东南3个方向递增;而粘土含量则呈现出相反的趋势。由于受断层影响,异龙湖表层沉积物各粒度组分形成了西北、东南两个相对对称的区域;西北湖区沉积物粒度分布特征同时受自然环境与人类活动的影响,沉积物类型主要有粘土质粉砂和粉砂质粘土,其中以粘土质粉砂为主;而东南深水湖区由于受人为干扰因素较弱,可以视为认识自然状态下物质搬运过程、探讨水动力特征以及研究自然湖泊沉积和气候变化的理想场所。     

鹤庆盆地湖相岩心磁化率记录及其古环境意义

鹤庆盆地位于受印度季风影响的中国西南地区, 沉积连续, 厚度大, 是古环境研究的理想场所。本文主要通过对鹤庆湖相岩心磁化率记录的分析研究, 并结合碳酸盐、烧失量和粒度特征对古环境变化的响应机理, 探讨了沉积物中磁化率的古环境指示意义。本研究发现, 磁化率与碳酸盐和烧失量具有显著的相反变化; 而与粒度的关系较为复杂。磁化率与指示粗颗粒变化的中值粒径在含砂(砾)层具有较好的正相关关系; 与指示细颗粒变化的 < 4μm颗粒的相对含量, 在湖相粘土沉积中具有较为明显的正相关关系, 表明湖相沉积物中的亚铁磁性矿物主要来自于外源带入的粘土粒级碎屑物中。通过分析磁化率对古环境变化的响应机制, 并结合碳酸盐含量、烧失量和粒度变化特征, 本研究认为鹤庆盆地湖相岩心的磁化率记录可以用来反映水动力对物源区地表的侵蚀强度和搬运状况, 与流域内植被覆盖和降雨量密切相关。在干旱的冰期, 植被覆盖度较低, 地表侵蚀加剧, 带入湖泊的粘土粒级碎屑含量增加, 磁化率增高; 在湿润的间冰期, 植被覆盖度较高, 地表侵蚀减弱, 粘土粒级碎屑物的带入量减少, 磁化率降低。      

民和盆地巴州坳陷中侏罗─下白垩统沉积相序列及其含油气意义

民和盆地巴州坳陷的侏罗－下白垩统主要发育曲流河、辫状河、滨浅湖、水下扇和三角洲沉积。窑街组的漫滩沼泽和湖湾沉积是主要的生油岩系。享堂组、大通河组和河口组的河道砂坝、湖滩滩砂和水下扇水道砂体是主要的储集层．其中，河道砂坝是最重要的。由于受成岩作用影响，孔隙度和渗透率都较低，裂缝－溶蚀孔隙改善了储层的储集性能。根据沉积特征，提出滨浅湖砂滩和水下扇水道是值得注意的有利储集相带。中侏罗统以上的滨浅湖泥岩和粉砂质泥岩是主要的盖层。     

Peculiarities of Recent Sedimentation in Lake Ladoga

The bulk of sedimentary material is supplied to Lake Ladoga in the form of suspension in river water. Rivers annually deliver 1.2 Mt of sedimentary material. A significant portion of clastic material in the sedimentation basin is also related to shore and bottom abrasion. Average sedimentation rate in the lake is 0.4 mm/yr for the last 10 ka. The wide grain size spectrum of lacustrine sediments is caused by textural inhomogeneity of Quaternary rocks, which are the main source of sedimentary material. Variably-grained relict sands at the depth of 12–20 m originated during a relatively low lake level. Silt, sand, and clay at 30–75 m are formed as a result of integration of the relict and newly supplied material. The sediment composition is principally defined by Cambrian–Ordovician rocks in the southern part of the lake, morainal and postglacial deposits in the eastern part, and crystalline basement rocks and their derivatives in the northern and western parts. Textural, mineral, and petrographic transformations of the surficial sediments take place under the influence of waves, induced currents, and gyres. Waves and induced currents mainly produce mature sediments, whereas gyres lead to the integration of materials supplied from different sources and the formation of petrographicaly mixed deposits. Based on the comprehensive analysis of sedimentological information, conditions of sedimentation and main features of lithodynamics are characterized. The results obtained may serve as a basis for the creation of a conceptual model of sedimentogenesis in Lake Ladoga.     

Ground-penetrating radar study of Pleistocene ice scours on a glaciolacustrine sequence boundary

Ice scouring of lake and sea-floor substrates by the keels of drifting ice masses is a common geological process in modern northern lakes and continental shelves, and was widespread during the Pleistocene. Nonetheless, the importance of scouring as a geological process is not yet matched by many sedimentological studies of scour structures exposed in outcrop. This article presents an integrated study combining outcrop sedimentology and subsurface ground-penetrating radar (GPR) data from a relict late Pleistocene ice-scoured glacial lake floor now preserved below beach sediments in Ontario, Canada. Scours occur along a regressive sequence boundary where deep-water muddy facies are abruptly overlain by shallow-water sands resulting from an abrupt drop in water levels. This has allowed the keels of drifting ice masses to scour into muds. Three-dimensional data gained from the GPR survey show that scours are as much as 2.5 m deep and 7 m wide; they have berms of displaced sediment and are oriented parallel to the former shoreline. Scoured shoreface sediments that fill scours show abundant liquefaction structures, indicating substrate dewatering during repeated scouring events similar to that recently reported in the modern Beaufort Sea in Canada's far north. Marked changes in water depths are typical of glacially influenced lakes and seas, creating opportunities for drifting ice to scour into offshore muddy cohesive facies and be preserved. The data presented here may aid identification in ancient successions elsewhere.     

1960年以来青海湖沉积物粒度的时空分布及其控制因素

对大型湖泊盆地沉积物粒度组成进行研究，有助于解读全球致密油气和页岩油气勘探开发与其记录的古气候信息。 文章对青海湖沉积物粒度时空分布进行了详细的研究，通过采集覆盖大部分湖区的27根近现代沉积岩芯，并对湖心的三根 典型沉积岩芯进行了137Cs测定获取沉积岩芯的年龄；基于磁化率地层年龄模式，建立了整个湖区沉积岩芯的年代框架。粒 度分析结果显示，青海湖岩芯沉积物的粒度分布呈多峰，以细颗粒沉积为主，其中粉砂含量60%~70%，粘粒组分为10%~ 35%，砂粒组分低于20%。青海湖沉积物的粒度变化在空间上相对较复杂，中值粒径呈现明显的砂岛附近、西部和西南湖 区高，其他湖区低的特征。在时间上，大体上自1960年到2017年呈现变粗的趋势，砂粒组分增多，粘粒组分减少。这些粒 度的时空变化可能是受风砂活动、流域土壤侵蚀、河流径流变化、湖平面变化和人类活动共同作用而成。

泸沽湖表层沉积物粒度空间分布特征及其影响因素

选择位于青藏高原和云贵高原过渡区的泸沽湖作为研究对象,对南部主湖区70个表层沉积物样品进行了粒度分析,结合湖泊周围自然地理要素,探讨了粒度各组分在空间上的分布特征及其影响因素。结果表明:泸沽湖南部主湖区表层沉积物沉积类型以黏土质粉砂为主,少数样品为砂质粉砂、砂,砾石主要分布在研究区南部和北部湖滨带,其中粉砂是该研究区的优势粒级。另外,南部主湖区表层沉积物粒度各组分分布具有明显的空间差异性,其中研究区东南侧及西南侧由于受入湖河流（山跨河、三家村河）的影响,导致黏土组分呈舌状分别向北、向东北方向延伸,但东南侧由于受湖水外流形成的定向湖流顶托作用,对研究区物源的贡献较弱;研究区西北部砂组分由于受到悬移作用和定向湖流影响,由西北向东南方向凸出;由于受反时针环流作用的影响,大量细粒物质由研究区北部和西南侧悬移至研究区南部并沉积下来,使得此处有大量细物质沉积。同时指出,泸沽湖南湖表层沉积物粒度空间分布的差异性特征受控于湖泊沉积动力过程及沉积物对环境变化响应敏感程度的差异,研究湖泊表层沉积物粒度组成不仅对于认识湖泊水动力及物质输入状况有很大的促进作用,对合理选择钻孔岩芯位置、开展湖泊沉积古气候环境变化研究具有一定的参考意义。

Late Quaternary mass movement events in Lake El′gygytgyn,North‐eastern Siberia

Lake El′gygytgyn is situated in a 3·6 Myr old impact crater in North‐eastern Siberia. Its sedimentary record probably represents the most complete archive of Pliocene and Quaternary climate change in the terrestrial Arctic. In order to investigate the influence of gravitational sediment transport on the pelagic sediment record in the lake centre, two sediment cores were recovered from the lower western lake slope. The cores penetrate a sub‐recent mass movement deposit that was identified by 3·5 kHz echo sounding. In the proximal part of this deposit, deformed sediments reflect an initial debris flow characterized by limited sediment mixture. Above and in front of the debrite, a wide massive densite indicates a second stage with a liquefied dense flow. The mass movement event led to basal erosion of ca 1 m thick unconsolidated sediments along parts of its flow path. The event produced a suspension cloud, whose deposition led to the formation of a turbidite. The occurrence of the turbidite throughout the lake and the limited erosion at its base mainly suggest deposition by ‘pelagic rain’ following Stokes’ Law. Very similar radiocarbon dates obtained in the sediments directly beneath and above the turbidite in the central lake confirm this interpretation. When applying the depositional model for the Late Quaternary sediment record of Lake El′gygytgyn, the recovered turbidites allow reconstruction of the frequency and temporal distribution of large mass movement events at the lake slopes. In total, 28 turbidites and related deposits were identified in two, 12·9 and 16·6 m long, sediment cores from the central lake area covering approximately 300 kyr.     

Assessment of metal concentrations in lake sediments of southwest Japan based on sediment quality guidelines

Geochemical analysis of the bottom sediments of Lakes Banryoko, Onbe, Hamahara and Kijima in Shimane prefecture of southwest Japan was carried out to determine their metal concentrations, and to assess the potential for ecological harm by comparison with sediment quality guidelines. The work conducted includes water quality measurement, and analyses of trace and major elements and rare earth element (REE) of sediments. Results showed that water quality of the lakes contrasts slightly between their upper and lower parts. Average abundances of As, Pb, Zn, Cu, Ni, and Cr in Banryoko sediments were 27, 33, 90, 27, 25, and 46 ppm, respectively, compared to 31, 52, 175, 44, 44, and 75 ppm at Onbe, 11, 26, 96, 13, 13, and 35 ppm at Hamahara, and 24, 43, 193, 31, 12, and 30 ppm at Kijima. These concentrations exceeded the lowest effect level that has moderate impact on aquatic organisms as proposed by the New York State Department of Environmental conservation. Pb and Cu abundances are comparable to the Coastal Ocean Sediment Database threshold, while As and Zn exceed this value, indicating the concentrations of these metals are potentially toxic. Increases in the abundances of these metals in lake sediments are probably related to the reducing condition of the sediments, anthropogenic sources and surface soil erosion. The REE patterns of sediments in the study areas are broadly comparable to the average upper continental crust, but show some contrast between lakes due to differing source litho type. Significant positive correlations between Fe₂O₃ and As, Pb, Zn, and Cu were found in the sediments, suggesting these metals may be adsorbed on Fe oxides in the lake sediments.     

Estuarine sedimentation in the Eocene of southern England

A temporary section in the Cuisian Bagshot Beds, which has been mapped in detail, displayed estuarine sediments with interlayered sands and muds, fine sands, channel-fill sands and intraformational (mainly mud clast) conglomerates. The facies show rapid lateral and vertical changes in grain size and bed form and a restricted suite of trace fossils including Ophiomorpha nodosa and Arenicolites sp. The sequence is shown to have been deposited in a subtidal channel where tidal, wave and fluvial processes were dominant at different times. The following points are considered to be characteristic of sedimentation in this environment: (i) correlation is difficult and facies predictability is low; (ii) there are frequent lateral facies changes from the channel to the subtidal bank environment; (iii) pene-contemporaneous erosion removes considerable amounts of sediment; (iv) load structures may be exposed, eroded, buried and reactivated; and (v) muddy layers and bioturbated horizons offer similar resistance to penecontemporaneous erosion.     

青海湖底沉积物的矿物物相及有机质保存研究

盐湖沉积环境是烃源岩发育的重要地质环境。本文以青海湖湖底沉积物为例，根据有机质与粘土矿物含最及矿物表面积的关系，分析了矿物学因素对盐湖相富有机质沉积物中有机质保存的影响。研究发现：湖底沉积物中有机质丰富，为上层水中的浮游生物和南河流携带束的陆地高等植物两种来源。矿物物相分析发现沉积物中粘土矿物含量达到32．4％，以伊利石为主。沉积物经密度分离后测试发现，有机碳含量与粘土矿物含量及矿物表面积之间具有很好的正相关性，说明粘土矿物吸附是青海湖底沉积物中有机质的主要赋存形式。

Bluff evolution and long-term recession rates,southwestern Lake Michigan

Where eroding cohesive sediments are present, Lake Michigan bluffs range up to 40 m in height, exposing multiple glacial stratigraphic units. Following the model presented here, bluffs form as a wave-cut terrace erodes inland from a point near the original shoreline. The erosion plane is nearly horizontal, in contrast with the eastward dip of the glacial units inherited from underlying bedrock. Therefore, terraces eroding inland produce progressively higher bluffs and expose successively older units at the toe and beneath the lake. This process was repeated several times as lake levels sequentially dropped to their modern stage. The initial modern shoreline, and hence the width of the wave-cut terrace, was determined from four offshore seismic and bottom-sampling profiles. It was picked as an inflection point in the lake bed, occurring offshore of dipping reflectors intersecting the lake bottom. The calculated average recession rate over a 2500-year duration of the modern stage is 1.5 m/yr in contrast to average rates of approximately 0.6 m/yr measured over the last century. Thus rates decrease through time as the terrace widens and wave energy is dampened. By correlating bluff height to recession distance, a third rate of approximately 2.7 m/yr for the first 940 years of recession is calculated from relict Nipissing bluffs. The three rates define a steeply decaying exponential curve in early stages of bluff retreat, flattening into a nearly linear function after 1000 years.     

利用盐层中碎屑沉积物粒度分布特征鉴别干盐湖沉积层序

本文提供了利用盐层中碎屑物粒度分布特征鉴别于盐湖层序的新方法。通过对昆特依现代干盐湖的研究发现,广泛发育的盐滩均经历了水下沉积、水上沉积与改造等作用过程,其碎屑物粒度分布特征与正常盐湖沉积显著不同,常由两个以上次总体复合而成。这成为区分两者的良好标志。作者将其应用于钻孔剖面,首次在该区揭露了若干干盐湖层序。而这些层序正是钾盐富集区段。     

苏干湖沉积物粒度组成记录尘暴事件的初步研究*

文章通过分析苏干湖表层沉积物、流域表层沉积物、大气降尘以及湖泊冰面囚固碎屑颗粒等的粒度组成,比较了流域地表沉积与湖泊沉积物粒度组成的差异和苏干湖表层沉积粒度组成的空间变化。初步认为苏干湖沉积物粗颗粒组分(>63μm)主要由风力搬运入湖,>63μm组分的含量可以用来指示研究区尘暴事件的演化。结合湖泊沉积岩芯纹层计数年龄,重建的1000年来尘暴演化历史显示,在1210A.D.之前尘暴事件较弱,且变化幅度较小;1210A.D.以来则表现出高频率或者高强度,其中13世纪上半叶以及17世纪的高值段与东部降尘变化历史一致。就气候变化的特征时段(中世纪暖期、小冰期等)而言,尘暴事件主要与气候变冷情况下较强的盛行风场有关;而极端干旱区有效湿度的增加可能有利于地表粉尘的释放,助长了尘暴事件的发生。
