大凌河与辽河入海口沉积物黏土矿物组成研究

采用X射线物相分析,对大凌河和辽河13个表层沉积物样品和4个柱状样中168个现代沉积物样品的主要黏土矿物含量组成进行分析。研究结果表明:大凌河沉积物黏土矿物组合为蒙脱石-伊利石-高岭石-绿泥石,辽河沉积物黏土矿物组合为伊利石-蒙脱石-绿泥石-高岭石。大凌河沉积物中蒙脱石与伊利石百分含量比值多大于1,而辽河沉积物该比值都小于1,且通过ISKc端元图能较清晰地区分两类沉积物,黏土矿物可以作为两条河流沉积物的判别标志。大凌河流域和辽河流域均以物理风化为主,辽河流域物理风化略强。流域内地质背景和气候条件等因素的差异造成了两条河流沉积物黏土矿物组成的不同。     

马里亚纳海槽区粘土矿物组成及分布特征

根据７个岩芯粘土矿物的研究，马里亚纳海槽晚更新世以来的沉积物中主要粘土矿物是蒙皂石，其次是少量ＦｅＭｇ绿泥石和伊利石，蒙皂石和ＦｅＭｇ绿泥石主要是海底基性火山物质蚀变形成的自生矿物，伊利石主要是来自海槽北面和西北面陆上岩石的风化产物，蒙皂石由海槽北部向南部呈增加趋势，而伊利石则呈减少趋势，此外，在距今大约４５－１０ｋｇ形成的地层中蒙皂石呈减少趋势，伊利石则呈增加趋势，上述粘土矿物组成及分布主要与物     

约翰斯顿岛附近海域铁锰结壳矿物学和地球化学研究

铁锰结壳存在两种不同的产状，一种是铁锰氧化和的围绕“核心”生长形成的球状结壳，另一种是铁锰氧化物在基底岩石上生长形成的被状结壳。本文对Ｒ／Ｖ，Ｋａｉｍｉｋａｉ－Ｏ－Ｋａｎａｌｏａ船１９９３年１１月在约翰期顿岛附近海域取得铁锰结壳进行了矿物学和地球化学分析。该区铁锰结壳主要组成矿物为δ－ＭｎＯ２，Ｍｎ／Ｆｅ比值为２．０２，富Ｃｏ（０．８８１％），盆Ｃｕ（０．１％），稀土总量（∑ＲＥＥ）１９１８．２７     

中国东南入海河流沉积物的稀土元素地球化学特征

系统采集了浙闽三条中小河流的代表性表层沉积物和悬浮物样品,用1N盐酸淋滤样品,研究稀土元素(REE)在酸溶及酸不溶相态中的组成特征。浙闽河流沉积物酸溶组分中的REE在总REE中的占比可达32%~82%,其中Fe-Mn氧化物和黏土矿物吸附态是细粒沉积物酸溶组分REE的主要赋存形式。浙闽河流沉积物酸溶组分的REE组成反映其遭受化学风化的信息;酸不溶组分主要由硅酸盐造岩矿物和稳定副矿物组成,尤其是锆石对REE组成有重要贡献。酸不溶相REE组成揭示,当地流域风化物质与潮流作用带入的长江源细颗粒是浙闽河口沉积物的主要来源。REE在风化及水动力分选过程中会发生分异,使得沉积物全岩组成不直接继承其源岩的REE组成特征,运用于物源判别时候需要慎重。中国东南河流沉积物显示Gd异常,这不是人类活动引起的Gd输入所致,而只反映中国东部物质的组成特征。     

南海南部沉积物中黏土矿物组成变化及其古沉积信息记录初探

通过对南海南部2个代表13万a以来柱状沉积样品高分辨率的黏土矿物组成分析,认为所研究的黏土矿物主要为陆源碎屑成因,埋藏过程中的成岩变化或黏土矿物自生特征不明显,而以采样点南面加里曼丹岛、菲律宾东、西两侧的火山群岛和湄公河流域为主要陆源的地质条件、风化环境及物质迁移途径的差异控制了南海南部沉积物中黏土矿物组成的空间和时间变化.研究发现,沉积物样品中较高的蒙皂石含量对应于地质历史上的暖期,而较低的蒙皂石含量对应于冷期.伊利石的行为及其古海洋指示意义则与蒙皂石相反.将柱状沉积物样品上高分辨率的黏土矿物组成分析作为一种研究方法,有助于研究晚第四纪以来南海陆源碎屑物的源区特征、迁移途径及海区古环境演变.

沉积矿物学在陆缘海环境分析中的应用

沉积矿物学是进行环境分析的重要手段之一，对矿物在表生环境下的物理、化学行为的研究是正确理解和获取一些重要的替代性环境指标的基础，它可为认识近代地质过程、地表气候过程和海洋环境过程提供定性和定量依据。20世纪90年代以来，海洋矿物学注重于以沉积矿物为指示，研究气候、物质来源、扩散路径和运移方向以及沉积环境等相关内容，并与地球化学相结合，解释区域性环境变化，乃至全球性环境演变等问题，取得了重要进展。对我国这一领域的研究现状作一综述，提出了5项环境示踪的沉积矿物学指标，即：用矿物组合、重矿物含量、磁铁矿、角闪石、长石等矿物示踪物源和物流；用矿物组合、高岭石、伊利石、方解石等指示古气候；用重矿物含量、石英特征等反映水动力条件；用海绿石、自生黄铁矿、铁锰氧化物等揭示氧化－还原环境；用火山玻璃、玄武闪石、蒙脱石等示踪火山和热液活动。但应用沉积矿物学示踪环境，必须运用多种指标进行综合分析。

罗纳河中悬浮物质的痕量元素的研究

于1989年5月－1990年4月间,在罗纳河下游近河口处进行每月一次为期间个月的样品采集工作,并且样品用HNO3－HF－HCIO4湿法消化后,用原子吸收分光光度法测定了悬浮颗粒物中的Co,Cr,Cu,Mn和Pb含量。结果表明,在不同月份之间悬浮物中的痕量元素组成具有显著地差别,其中一些元素的浓度随流量的增加而减少,而另外一些似乎与流量之间没有显著的关联。在稳定体系的假设下,所估计的人文活动对痕量元素的贡献可占观测浓度的10％－50％。当与其它河流对比时,发现罗纳河中的颗粒态痕量元素的浓度明显高于那些受人文活动影响较小的体系,而与北美的河流系统接近,表明罗纳河流域的人文活动对河流中颗粒态痕量元素的影响是显著的。

Macrofaunal density, biomass and composition of estuarine sediments and their relationship to the river plume of the Rhone River (NW Mediterranean)

This study investigates species community patterns and sediment relationships of benthic macrofauna off the Rhone river delta. Along a WE transect, changes in diversity, density, biomass and trophic structure were coupled with the mean extension of the river dilution plume. Species number and diversity were at a minimum off the river mouth, below the area of the minimum surface salinity. Density decreased by a factor 2 and biomass by a factor 5 from the fluvial to the marine system. These features are due to high overload of terrestrial organic matter in the river prodelta as evidenced by the carbon isotopic signature of surface sediment and by pigment content. On the basis of a non-metric MDS analysis and of Dufrêne and Legendre method (1997), groups of stations and characteristic species associated were identified. These species, mainly small capitellids, spionids, lumbrinerids and sternaspids, correspond to a successional dynamic in response to changes in sedimentation conditions, mainly in organic matter quality of the surface sediment. The succession observed in space was similar to described in macrotidal estuaries and off other deltaic systems all over the world and to that observed in time following the Rhone river severe flood events. Results suggest that organic matter quality is an important factor with regard to benthic macrofauna successions and recovery mechanisms following disturbances. The differences observed between the Rhone deltaic system and the general model of relations between shelf processes and discharge of large rivers are attributed to a more regular supply of organic material from terrestrial origin on the Rhone continental shelf.     

Chemical Fluxes of Asian Rivers into Oceans and their Controlling Factors

Chemical fluxes of Asian rivers into oceans bear different regional variations. Three zones are characteristic of distinct dissolved sediment loads and yields and ionic concentration.Rivers into oceans in China play an important role in Asia because of their different chemical fluxes, among which those draining the Loess Plateau have high ionic concentration, low water discharges and dissolved sediment loads and yields.Climate, vegetation, soil and strata lithology, chemical weathering intensity and tectonic activity dominate chemical fluxes of Asian rivers into oceans, and different factors have different effects on the chemical fluxes of separate regional rivers. Rising of the Tibet Plateau also exerts an important influence on chemical compositions of rivers originating from it.     

Distributional Feature of Detrital Minerais in the Superficial Sediment of South Yellow Sea

The composition ofdetrital minerals with grades of 0.063 - 0.25 mm in the superficial sediment of South Yellow Sea is mainly studied in the paper. The research result shows that the minerals can be divided into more than fifty sorts. The light minerals are mainly feldspar, quartz, mica, etc. The heavy minerals are mainly composed of amphibole, epidote, mica. autogeny pyrite, magnetite, hematite, garnet,zircon and so on, which mainly distribute in the sediments of silty clay and lutaceous silt. According to the content and distribution of the main minerals, the research area is divided into five mineral combination provinces. The assembled types of minerals in every province have close relationship with its hydrodynamic conditions and sedimentary environment. And the sorts of detrital minerals also show that the detrital substances in the sedimentary areas mainly originate from the drainage areas of rivers,bedrock weathering, and transformed sediment, etc.

基于重矿物地球化学手段的南海东北部陆架沉积物物源研究

物源是研究大陆架沉积物搬运过程、重建陆架古环境以及海洋砂矿资源勘查的重要信息。然而,陆架砂质沉积物普遍经历过多次搬运、分选和混合,这给物源识别带来极大的困难。南海东北部陆架砂质沉积物分布广泛,本文首次采用单矿物化学方法对其物源进行了新的解析。研究区表层砂质沉积物中电气石与角闪石为优势重矿物,两者含量呈现此消彼长的关系。电气石和石榴子石的电子探针数据显示:珠江、韩江沉积物影响海域,火成岩成因的电气石占60%左右,其主要来源为区内广泛发育的燕山期花岗岩的风化产物;莲花山断裂带和长乐?南澳断裂带附近的南海东北部沿岸小河沉积物中变质岩成因的电气石含量显著增高,最高可达70%,其来源为区内与断裂带伴生的变质岩风化物;矽卡岩成因的钙铝榴石在南澳岛以东的陆架沉积物中发现最多,这与华南陆域矽卡岩的分布区吻合。综合分析认为,重矿物的矿物化学方法可以减少分选效应的影响,利用多种矿物的矿物化学分异可以获得多维的信息,为陆架沉积物的物源判定提供便利。     

Quaternary geology of the Amazonian Lowland

The Quaternary history of the Amazon lowlands is characterized by deposition of sediments of Andean provenance and by the influences of changing sea levels. Areas well above the present water tables were not reached by Pleistocene high-water stages. These areas have been intensively weathered since the Tertiary, forming hard lateritic weathering horizons. These weathering horizons are best explained by the relatively constant, humid tropical climate throughout the Quaternary. In the western Amazonian Lowland, flood plains corresponding to the different Pleistocene sea-level heights were formed. During low sea level, erosion in the drainage areas increased and the water levels of the central Amazon River system were lowered. Valleys drowned and lakes formed in the lower reaches of rivers and creeks during high sea-level stages. These lakes (ria lakes) remained in the valleys with rivers having a low sediment load. Seismic profiling (3.5 kHz) in some of these lakes clearly showed deposits of the three last periods of Quaternary high sea-level stages.     

Input of particulate heavy metals from rivers and associated sedimentary deposits on the Gulf of Lion continental shelf

Fluxes of the heavy metals chromium (Cr), cobalt (Co), nickel (Ni), copper (Cu), lead (Pb), cadmium (Cd) and zinc (Zn) delivered by rivers to the Gulf of Lion (NW Mediterranean Sea) were estimated over a three year study of the River Rhone and its smaller tributaries. Most of the particulate metal fluxes (80–90%) delivered by these rivers occurred within a very short period of time (less than 12%), a typical trend for the Mediterranean environment, where highly contrasting hydrological regimes were observed over the year. Temporal and spatial variations in the fluxes of these particulate metals were driven by the fluxes in both water discharge and suspended particulate matter load. On the shelf, these particulate metal fluxes, largely arising from the Rhone watershed, were two to ten times more important than those resulting from atmospheric deposition. Co, Cr and Ni in the rivers and on the shelf surface sediments were mainly natural and associated with the finest particles. Cd and Phosphorus appeared to be associated with the silt fraction and to be enriched in the prodelta areas. Pb, Zn and Cu were more closely associated with the organic matter content and also showed enrichment in the organic rich prodeltaic sediments. Anthropogenic influences diminished offshore, except for Pb and Zn which could be supplied from the atmosphere by man-made aerosols. Although most of the metals tended to be enriched in the prodelta areas, these did not constitute a permanent sink due to resuspension processes affecting these shallow depths. A resuspension experiment conducted on sediment cores from the Rhone prodelta demonstrated that metal deposited on the surface layer, especially those associated with the organic matter, may be resuspended; this should be taken into account for a complete understanding of the biogeochemical cycle of these metals.
