东太平洋暖池

利用1950-2002年间的海面温度(SST)资料,研究了东太平洋暖池的形态和热状态特征,并探讨了暖池变异与恩索(ENSO)的关系。结果表明,暖池形态和热状态均有明显的季节特征和年际变化,其年际变化与ENSO循环相联系;暖池热含量、面积和南界与ENSO有着十分密切的相关关系。合成分析结果显示,在厄尔尼诺(El Nino)事件爆发的前一年,暖池热含量偏少,面积偏小,南界偏北,而在事件爆发后,暖池热含量增多,面积增大,南界南移;在拉尼娜(La Ni?a)事件期间,暖池热含量、面积和南界的演变趋势基本与El Nino事件期间的情况相反。东太平洋暖池的经向变异可能对ENSO暖(El Nino)、冷(La Nina)事件的发展有重要作用。

Permian ammonoids from Eastern Australia

Umbrella‐shaped objects, presumably fossils, were collected from the Lower Proterozoic Noltenius Formation at two localities about 80 miles south of Darwin. Radial and concentric forms are described morphologically, and their probable mode of origin is discussed.     

Discovery of Jinning Cycle Magmatism in Eastern Part of Eastern Kunlun Orogenic Beltand Its Significance

There were frequent tectono- magmatic activities in East-ern Kunlun orogenic belt.The exposed area of igneous rocksis very large,forming the magmatic arc belt on a large scale.The intrusive rocks are mainly of Hercynian - Indosinian cy-cle,with a few Caledonian and Yanshanian cycles(Jiang etal.,1992 ,1986 ;Gu et al.,1986 ) .Previous study indicatesthat the Eastern Kunlun orogenic belt had undergone at leastoceanic to continental conversion of Jinningian,Caledonian,Hercynian- Indosinian c…     

扬子地块东段若干橄揽岩包体的温度－压力计算

采自江苏省六合地区的１１个尖晶石相橄榄岩包体，用电子探针和质子探针精确测定其中橄榄石和辉石的主量和微量成分，采用新近校准的适用于尖晶石相包体的橄榄石一单斜辉石地质压力计和二辉石地质温度计，计算了包体中共生矿物对的平衡温度和压力。其中ＢＭ８５计算的温度比ＢＫＮ９０的约低５０℃左右。而经Ｂｒｅｙ和Ｋｏｈｌｅｒ修改的ＢＭ８５温度计得到的结果与ＢＫＮ９０的几乎相同。假定压力为１．５ＧＰａ，用ＢＫＮ９０计算，１１个包体样品的温度范围为７２２℃～１１９３℃，它大体上反映了扬子地块东段大陆岩石圈地使尖晶石相部分的温度状态。橄榄石一单斜辉石地质压力计用于本样品组计算，仅部分样品获得合理的结果。由于该压力计自身的误差较大，尚不能精确确定尖晶石相橄榄岩的压力。

Upper mantle heterogeneities beneath Eastern Europe

P-wave travel-time residuals for seismograph stations in eastern Europe as reported by ISC for the years 1964–1977 were used for constructing a seismic image of upper mantle heterogeneities in the network region. For the depth range 0–100 km, dominant tectonic features like the Pannonian Basin and the Aegean Sea and western Turkey correlate well with pronounced velocity lows which a ppear to extenddown to a 300 km depth. The velocity anomaly patterns in the depth intervals 300–500 km and 500–600 km are broadly similar but quite different from those of shallower depths. The observed seismic heterogeneities are briefly discussed in terms of large-scale tectonic and geophysical (heat-flow) characteristics of eastern Europe.     

Vineyard site suitability in Eastern California

An analysis of the physical characteristics of an established wine region in eastern California, USA was undertaken to discern if a unique combination of environmental parameters in Zinfandel vineyards could be quantitatively identified. Development of a geographic information system (GIS) method to assess land suitability for current and potential viticultural regions in a Mediterranean-type climate is the primary focus. The assessment is based on spatial frequency distributions of measurable environmental criteria derived from characteristics of existing vineyards. In fact, statistically significant differences were found at the 95% confidence interval for 6 variables, and at the 85% confidence interval for an additional 3 variables. Thus 9 of the 15 variables analyzed (53%) were discriminated statistically between the vineyard and non-vineyard areas. The findings of this study illustrate the potential of GIS techniques for viticultural land suitability analysis, while supporting and contributing to the literature on the significance of soil and topographic characteristics in viticulture.     

Magnetic anomalies in the Eastern Caribbean

Despite the many different studies on the origin and evolution of the Caribbean Plate, no proposal has been widely accepted so far. A key element within this field of research is the characterization of the plate subsurface oceanic crust, as it would clarify the conditions in which it originated, the geological period when it formed and its possible geographical location at this first evolution stage. Based on partial results of this research work, we can say that the conclusions of previous studies are valid to a great extent, namely the NE–SW orientation of the striped magnetic anomalies in the Venezuelan Basin’s western section and the existence of W–E preferentially oriented stripes parallel to the Leeward Antilles. The magnetic response of the triangular section in the southeast of the Venezuelan Basin represents cretaceous magnetic quiet zone (CMQZ) and therefore shows a considerable attenuation of the stripe pattern, indicating that the whole East Caribbean subsurface features oceanic crustal material. As for the period recorded by the Caribbean magnetic stripes, we propose the interval between chrons M23 and M0, and part of CMQZ. The wavelengths of the identified anomalies suggest that the ridge associated with the formation of Caribbean ocean floor was slow-spreading when compared to average currently active ridges.     

Pleistocene mammal faunas of Eastern Europe

Systematic studies of the Pleistocene mammal assemblages of Eastern Europe have been carried out for more than a century, and they elucidated evolutionary changes and ascertained chronological sequence of the faunas. The available evidence on fossil mammals from Eastern Europe allows differentiation of 7 complexes of large mammals. These complexes represent 15 assemblages and their phases distinguished for small mammals. The appearance of new taxa of different rank provides the basis for identification of the principal stages in mammal evolution. Multi-disciplinary studies of fossil mammal localities have made it possible to correlate theriological data with the main events of the Pleistocene (such as glacials and interglacials) by comparison between geological, geochronological and palaeontological data.Interglacial and periglacial mammal faunas of different age have been defined on the basis of their structural characteristics and geographical distribution. Two types of mammal assemblages are recognised: zonal interglacial and periglacial assemblages specific to glacial periods. In the first type, each zonal assemblage is dominated by a single ecological group of mammals. A distinctive feature of the second type is the co-existence of animals belonging to different ecological groups and inhabiting different natural environments.
