西太平洋侏罗纪海洋地壳断裂特征及其成因机制*

侏罗纪洋壳为现存最古老的海洋地壳, 残留在地球表面上很少, 目前对于侏罗纪洋壳的断裂特征和构造变形了解很少。本文利用高分辨率的反射地震剖面精细解释了位于西太平洋的侏罗纪洋壳基底、沉积地层和断裂结构, 发现在研究区存在基底断层、沉积断层和垮塌断层三种类型的断裂构造, 并对其走向、倾角、断距等几何参数与变形特征进行了推测和定量研究。研究还发现, 基底断层是洋壳受到板块伸展拉张而产生的, 在后期海底沉积过程中持续发育并错断上覆沉积物, 在海底形成明显的断层陡坎。沉积断层是沉积地层自身重力作用的产物,受到沉积地层岩石性质的控制。垮塌断层是岩浆侵出或者侵入形成海山, 导致洋壳及其上覆沉积局部抬升并向两侧推移, 引起先存的基底断层和沉积断层重新错动产生的。研究区内切断洋壳基底和上覆沉积的活动断层的推测走向大体符合侏罗纪洋壳基底面起伏、重力异常骤变界面以及地磁异常条带等的走向, 表明这些断裂从侏罗纪洋中脊的海底扩张中演变而来, 并且持续活动至今。这些发育在古老洋壳上的断层能够长时间让水进入岩石圈并进入俯冲带及地球内部, 从而促进地球水循环。尽管目前尚未发现这些断裂产生大地震, 但这些断层可能随着板块俯冲而演变成俯冲带地震大断裂, 今后研究应该关注这类断层在靠近海沟之前的演化规律和潜在地震风险。     

珠江口盆地前新生代先存断裂特征及动力背景

前人针对珠江口盆地前新生代开展过大量研究,但对盆地的原始构造格局仍缺乏统一认识。在高精度三维地震资料的基础上,笔者采用“定性+定量”先存断裂综合识别技术,识别出珠江口盆地惠州凹陷和番禺4洼前新生代基底发育的先存断裂583条。按照断裂是否断穿Tg和断裂倾角大小,将先存断裂分为4类：高角度节理、低角度节理、高角度活化断层和低角度活化断层;按断裂走向划分,将先存断裂分为NW-NWW向和NE-NEE向2组。燕山期晚侏罗—早白垩世,古太平洋板块对华南板块沿NW向正向俯冲,形成NE-NEE向逆冲断裂;燕山期晚白垩世,古太平洋板块对华南板块斜向俯冲产生左旋挤压应力场导致NW-NWW向逆冲断裂形成。这些先存断裂从源头上控制了珠江口盆地的构造格局,为研究盆地后续演化提供了重要支撑。     

东海西湖凹陷北部基底构造特征

根据最新的重磁资料,反演了西湖凹陷北部的基底深度,推断解释了火成岩和断裂构造,结合相关地质和构造方面资料,对西湖凹陷北部基底性质和基底构造特征进行了分析,深化了对西湖凹陷北部基底构造特征的认识。研究认为,区内的断裂构造主要由NE向和NW向两组断裂构成。NE向的断裂主要为年代较老的大断裂,它们在构造上被NW向的断裂错断,并被NW向断层复杂化;西湖凹陷的火成岩比较发育,火成岩主要沿着大的断裂带以及断裂带的两侧分布,形成许多串珠状的火成岩带。岩浆岩的分布受断裂控制明显,尤其是在NE向断裂与NW向断裂交汇处,更是岩浆活动的主要地区;西湖凹陷北部的古新近系基底构造主体走向为NE向,但明显受NW向断裂的改造,形成东西分带、南北分块的构造特征。西湖凹陷基底构造起伏较大,绝大部分的基底深度都在5000m以下,总体上呈南高北低、凸凹相间分布,由东到西分别为保俶斜坡、三潭深凹、浙东中央背斜带、白堤深凹和天屏冲断带5个次级构造单元。     

雪峰陆内构造系统燕山期构造变形特征和动力学

通过分析雪峰陆内构造系统燕山期褶皱-断裂的构造特征和时空演化,得出研究区雪峰山西侧构造样式具有明显的块断效应,各次级构造单元的边界断裂对构造样式具有强烈的控制作用。时序上,燕山期有两期褶皱变形,早期褶皱轴向总体为NE向,晚期褶皱轴向为S-N向或NNE向;动力学上,雪峰陆内构造系统在NW-SE向的缩短作用下,其中的雪峰山隆升带的前寒武纪基底垂向推挤隆升,且不同块体平面上表现为复杂的走滑逃逸:以怀化-新晃断裂为界,以南的块体向SW向挤出。结合古太平洋板块在燕山期的俯冲规律,古太平洋板块NW向和W向的两次俯冲可能控制了燕山期两幕褶皱和逆冲作用。     

下刚果-刚果扇盆地东南部基底断裂复活及其与油气的关系

下刚果-刚果扇盆地位于西非被动大陆边缘,是典型的裂谷与被动陆缘叠合盆地。该区以往的研究多集中于盐上层系,对基底断裂研究较少。以构造分析为基础,探讨了基底断裂复活及其对盐上层系构造变形和油气分布的影响。结果表明,研究区盐下裂谷层系具有“两坳夹一隆”的构造格局,大西洋枢纽带夹持于内裂谷带和外裂谷带之间;基底断裂复活主要发生在紧邻大西洋枢纽带西侧、呈狭长带状分布的基底断裂复活带,断裂复活形式主要表现为继承性,其次为构造反转;基底断裂复活不仅对盐上层系的构造变形具控制作用,而且为油气从盐下层系向盐上层系运移提供了良好的垂向通道条件,是外裂谷带盐下油气向盐上层系运移的关键部位。     

南沙海域区域地质构造

以多年来在南沙海域的海洋地质－地球物理综合考察所取得的资料为基础,分析研究了区内的地球物理场特征、深部地壳结构、基底性质、断裂构造等,其中断裂构造划分出正断裂、逆冲断裂和走滑断裂３个系统,区域上划分出３大块体和６个地块。叠置在不同地壳类型和基底之上或不同构造部位的１３个主要的大中型新生代盆地,具有沉积厚度大、盆地类型多、规模大的特点,是多种盆地原型的叠覆盆地,也是油气资源的重要场所。     

南黄海盆地崂山隆起海相中—古生界构造地质特征

南黄海盆地位于下扬子地台的东北部、郯庐断裂带以东的活动区内,是一个在前震旦系变质岩基底之上,经海相中—古生界、陆相中生界和新生界多期沉积叠覆而成的叠合盆地。近年来,在崂山隆起上的地震剖面获得了较好的深层反射,隆起上存在较连续分布、厚度超过4~5 km的中生界—上古生界地层。但由于中—古生界海相地层的勘探程度低,制约着该区油气勘探的进程。通过地震资料解释,结合邻区钻井与区域地质资料,研究了崂山隆起区海相中—古生界地层的构造地质特征,结果表明,崂山隆起区以下志留统高家边组泥岩滑脱带为界划分为上下2套海相构造层,其形成演化受晋宁运动、广西运动、东吴运动以及印支运动等影响,经历了基底形成、被动边缘克拉通、稳定台地、抬升剥蚀及陆内造山阶段。其中海相上构造层假整合或不整合覆于海相下构造层之上,由于受后期印支、燕山等构造运动的强烈改造作用,造成其在崂山隆起区遭受强烈的隆升褶皱和剥蚀夷平,逆冲断裂广泛发育,并伴随着逆掩推覆和滑脱作用,上构造层的上部地层显著减薄甚至缺失,残留厚度变化较大。该区断裂发育较弱,主要有2组方向的断裂,一组为EW向断裂,这类断裂规模较大,但不发育;一组为NE向断裂。     

太阳盆地中新生代断裂特征及成因机制

太阳盆地位于北黄海盆地的东部,是一个发育在中-朝克拉通基底之上的中、新生代沉积盆地,勘探程度非常低。最新二维地震资料揭示,太阳盆地的断裂体系可以分控盆断裂、控凹(坳)断裂、控带断裂、控圈断裂和分割性断裂。盆地发育以NE向和NW向为主的的正断层和逆断层,而少量断层呈近EW或SN向。对不同类型的断裂构造特征及样式分析表明,断裂的活动期次可分为4期:晓侏罗世-早白垩世伸展断层、晓白垩世逆冲断层、始新世伸展正断层和新近纪正断层。中、新生代以来,中国东部构造演化主要受其东部太平洋板块活动控制,晓侏罗纪开始,洋壳俯冲在东部的欧亚大陆之下,伴随着太平洋-菲律宾板块的俯冲,太阳盆地发生NNE-SSW向的拉张;晓白垩世时期,由于太平洋板块俯冲方向的改变,区域性拉张变为区域性NNW-SSE向挤压,太阳盆地的一系列NW向逆断层形成;在始新世-渐新世,太平洋板块向东亚大陆作斜向减速俯冲,导致太阳盆地遭受Nww-SEE向拉张作用,再次断陷;渐新世末期,受喜山运动第Ⅱ幕的影响,太阳盆地发生再次的构造反转,形成一系列的小规模断层。     

胶北地块和北苏鲁超高压变质带前寒武纪基底对比研究

胶东地区苏鲁超高压变质岩系和华北克拉通东部陆块的前寒武纪变质岩系直接相连,由此它成为对比华北-扬子板块前寒武纪基底差异、研究华北-扬子板块界线的关键区域之一。对胶东地区前寒武纪岩石组合、地球化学和年代学的综合研究表明:胶北地块前寒武纪基底以太古宙-古元古代的结晶基底为主,~2.7Ga的造壳活动最为显著,经历了~2.5Ga的构造事件后接受了1.9~2.1Ga的孔兹岩系沉积,在~1.8Ga变质事件后地壳基本处于稳定状态,至震旦纪发育了亲华北的蓬莱群沉积;与胶北地块不同,北苏鲁以新元古代双峰式岩浆岩系为主,残留少量太古宙-古元古代的残留地壳,并经历了1.8~2.2Ga的构造事件,但主要记录Rodinia超大陆裂解期(0.7~0.8Ga)年龄。并对胶北地块和北苏鲁超高压变质带的构造归属以及二者界线进行了讨论。     

东海西湖凹陷断裂系统几何学特征及其成因机制

断裂系统几何学特征研究表明,西湖凹陷断裂样式具有显著的"东西分带、南北分块"特征。西部斜坡带北部和南部为断阶式构造样式,中部的平湖斜坡带主要为单断式;中央-洼陷反转构造带自北向南构造样式呈规律性变化,反映出断裂反转强度自北向南减弱的趋势;东缘陡坡断隆带北部以西倾的同向断阶式为主,南部以东倾的反向断阶为主,中部黄岩边缘断裂带呈过渡特征。各主要构造带南北构造样式的转换部位也具有特殊的构造现象,凹陷中南部主要表现为晚期近E-W向断裂的集中发育,两侧NE、NNE向断层多尖灭或横向错移,中北部主要表现为断裂走向的变化。构造带南北构造样式的转换部多位于区域NW、NWW向基底断裂的延伸线上,这类NW、NWW向基底断裂多具有走向平移特征,据此,笔者认为这种构造特征的南北差异可能与早期NW、NWW向基底调节断裂的限制或再活动有关,在此基础上提出了西湖凹陷断裂样式南北差异的成因演化模式。     

Model of the post-Cenozoic evolution of the cryolithozone of the shelf of the western part of the Laptev Sea

The analysis of the structure of the cryolithozone, facies, and thicknesses of the Quaternary sediments and the results of the physicochemical mathematical modeling of the modern shelf of the western part of the Laptev Sea support the influence of the Late Pleistocene glaciations on the heat conditions and the distribution of the permafrost in the area. A ～200-m thick glacier formed under aerial conditions from atmospheric precipitation represented the metamorphosed snow cover. According to the modeling, the long-living (from 60?50 to 10?4 ky) glacier reduced the thickness of the permafrost rocks in the reviewed shelf area for 280–360 m. The Holocene marine transgression additionally decreased the thickness from 50–140 m on the inner shelf to 220–350 m on the outer shelf. The modern submarine cryolithozone 450-0 m thick is wide-spread in the studied region from the coast to the shelf boundary (isobaths of 130–140 m), where it pinches out at a distance of ～380 km from the coast at a depth of ～250 m above the sea level.     

Investigation of the mechanism of the long-term evolution of the carbon cycle in the ecosystem of the Sevastopol bay

We analyze the components of the carbon system of the Sevastopol bay waters and the balance of main sediment-forming substances using the data of field investigations in 1998–2008. The interannual variations of total inorganic carbon and the equilibrium partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the bay water are noted. An increase in the flux of carbon dioxide into the bay and in the content of organic carbon in bottom sediments is revealed, and an explanation of this phenomenon is given. The priority accumulation of organic carbon in the sediments of the bay is established. We assess the interannual variation in the relative abundances of organic and inorganic carbon as an index of the carbon cycle stability.

We generalize and analyze the state of investigations of the influence of river waters on the hydrologic structure of the Black Sea. Specific features of the water, regime and hydrography of rivers flowing into the sea, data on the discharge of rivers, and intrayear and interyear variability of the discharge are presented. We discuss and analyze works studying the transformation of river waters, routes of desalinized sea waters, and their influence on the thermohaline structure and dynamic regime of the sea.

双壳贝类血淋巴中儿茶酚胺的检测方法初步研究

研究的目的是探索一种检测双壳贝类血淋巴中儿茶酚胺含量的方法。以栉孔扇贝(Chlamysfarreri)和长牡蛎(Crassostreagigas)为实验对象,研究了取样、抗氧化剂、氧化铝用量以及Tris缓冲液用量等对实验结果的影响。结果表明,高效液相色谱电化学检测器法(HPLC-ECD)可以灵敏高效地对双壳贝类血淋巴中儿茶酚胺进行定性、定量检测。实验表明,取样时间最长不超过1.5min;还原性谷胱甘肽作抗氧化剂效果较好;前处理各试剂与血样量的最适配比为血样量1.5mL,Tris缓冲液(1.5mol/L,pH8.6)1mL和氧化铝25mg;水洗后离心并尽可能吸干氧化铝中的水分。去甲肾上腺素、肾上腺素和多巴胺的回收率分别为53%~69%、47%~73%和48%~56%。     

Modelling of the ecosystem of the Black-Sea shelf zone near the estuary of the Danube

We analyze the results of numerical calculations performed according to the three-dimensional interdisciplinary model of an ecological system of the Black-Sea shelf zone near the estuary of the Danube. The complete system of equations of hydrothermodynamics is solved together with transport equations of the advection-diffusion-reaction type used to describe the transformation of a substance (nitrogen) between the components of the characteristic vectors of the ecosystem: plankton, detritus, and biogenic elements (nitrates). We describe the distinctive features of the circumcontinental distribution of components obtained as a result of numerical experiments and present arguments for the conclusion that the ecosystem of the Danube estuary water area plays the role of a buffer zone between the press of the Danubian biogenic pollutions and the neighbouring areas of the shelf zone and open sea.

Dynamics of the ice cover and peculiarities of the ice transportation of the sediments at the tidal flats of the Kandalaksha Gulf of the White Sea

Ten years of semistationary studies of the interaction of the ice cover and the coastal relief of the Kandalakhsa Gulf in the White Sea allowed us to reveal the peculiarities of these processes in the warm and cold years and the mechanisms of the origination of ice forms, including ice tents, which govern the character of the tidal flats. Three dynamic fast ice zones are distinguished by their geomorphological location, morphology, and ice dynamics. The dependence of the mechanisms and volumes of the enrichment of the fast ice in the sediments on the coastal zone??s relief was established. At the coast of the Kindo Peninsula (Velikaya Salma Strait), the ice mostly contains fine-sandy sediments. Coarser sediments, including boulders, are occasional and frozen into the ice at the contact of the fast ice and the bottom. At the expense of the ice??s spreading by 4?C6 times in the warm years and 2?C4 times in the cold years, several thousand tons of sediments mostly from the tidal flat??s surface (100?C700 m³ from 1 km of coast in the wide tidal flats and <50 m³ on the steep coasts) are delivered to the water area.     

黄河入海径流对河口海域盐度影响研究

为研究黄河入海径流变化条件下河口附近海域盐度扩散特征,以更好地保护河口海域生物资源多样性,本文以黄河下游利津水文站的长序列实测径流数据资料为基础,利用近海水动力模型FVCOM,分析径流变化对黄河口海域盐度的影响规律。结果表明：黄河口与莱州湾之间存在顺时针的环流系统,在余流作用以及涨落潮方向的影响下,黄河冲淡水长期向莱州湾扩散;丰水期黄河冲淡水几乎影响了整个莱州湾,27盐度锋可以到达莱州湾中部,27等盐线的表层包络面积为2 665.61 km²,占莱州湾的1/4左右,枯水期低盐度水只有向南扩散的趋势,27以下的低盐度水集中分布在黄河口门附近,27等盐线的表层包络面积只有199.65 km²;5月份,随着入海径流量增加,27等盐线扩散的范围、距离、方向都会发生明显变化。在对近海生物资源有迫切保护需求的情景下,适当减少其他用水户供水量以增加入海生态径流量,可以有效改善黄河口海域附近的盐度情况,为生物资源的生长繁殖创造良好条件。     

The influence of the bottom contour on the deformed state of the ice cover due to the motion of the submarine

The authors have previously determined that the effectiveness and failure pattern of the ice cover caused by flexural-gravity waves generated by a submerged body motion near the bottom ice can greatly depend on the depth of the water area. In its turn, the presence of a ledge on the ice surface may affect a wave propagation pattern. This paper presents an experimental study of the bottom contour influence on the deflection and length of flexural-gravity waves. The authors describe a numerical model for the analysis of the deformed state of ice caused by hydrodynamic loads due to a submarine motion, taking into account the bottom contour. The experiments are carried out in the ice tank. The results of calculations and experiments are compared.     

Relationship between the path of the Kuroshio in the south of Japan and the path of the Kuroshio Extension in the east

A relationship between paths of the Kuroshio and Kuroshio Extension (KE) is investigated, using the satellite-derived altimetry dataset of 1993–2008. When the Kuroshio takes the nearshore nonlarge meander path or typical large meander path and resultantly goes through the deeper channel (about 2500 m) of the Izu-Ogasawara Ridge, the KE path adopts a relatively stable state with the two quasi-stationary meanders. On the other hand, when the Kuroshio takes the offshore nonlarge meander path and then passes over the shallower part of the Ridge (about 1000 m), the KE path tends to be convoluted, i.e., an unstable state.     

Variability of the nutrient runoff of the rivers of the Arctic Basin

The spatiotemporal variability of the hydrochemical composition of the riverine runoff in nearmouth areas is presented using the example of selected rivers of the Arctic Basin. The temporal dynamics of the riverine nutrient runoff are mainly determined by the seasonal and interseasonal variations in the drainage basins. The spatial variations in the chemical composition of riverine waters in the near-mouth areas are mainly caused by the dynamics of the water flow and the river bed relief and, to a lesser degree, by biochemical processes. It is shown that the variations in the nutrient composition of the waters in near-mouth areas are comparable in magnitude to those at the river-sea geochemical barriers.
