Heat flow and its coalbed gas effects in the central-south area of the Huaibei coalfield, eastern China

Based on an analysis of the present geo-temperature field and the thermal conductivity (K) of 62 samples from the central-south area of the Huaibei coalfield in eastern China, we calculated the heat flow and plotted its distribution map. The results show that the average heat flow in the research area is about 60 mW/m2. It is different from other major energy basins in the North China Plate, but has close relationship with the regional geology and the deep geological setting. The heat flow is comparatively ...     

First insights into the structure and environmental setting of cold-seep communities in the Marmara Sea

A brackish-water cold seep on the North Anatolian Fault (NAF) in the Marmara Sea was investigated with the Nautile submersible during the MarNaut cruise in 2007. This active zone has already been surveyed and revealed evidence of active seeping on the seafloor, such as bubble emissions, patches of reduced sediments, microbial mats and authigenic carbonate crusts. MarNaut was the first opportunity to sample benthic communities in the three most common microhabitats (bioturbated and reduced sediments, carbonate crust) and to examine their relationships with environmental conditions. To do so, faunal communities were sampled and chemical measurements were taken close to the organisms. According to diversity indices, the bioturbated microhabitat exhibited the highest taxonomic diversity and evenness despite a lower number of samples. Conversely, the reduced sediment microhabitat exhibited the lowest taxonomic diversity and evenness. The carbonate crust microhabitat was intermediate although it had the highest biomass. Multivariate analyses showed that (1) fauna were relatively similar within a single microhabitat; (2) faunal community structure varied greatly between the different microhabitats; (3) there was a link between faunal distribution and the type of substratum; and (4) chemical gradients (i.e. methane, oxygen and probably sulphides) may influence faunal distribution. The estimated fluid flow velocity (0.4–0.8 m/yr) confirmed the presence of fluid emission and provided evidence of seawater convection in the two soft-sediment microhabitats. Our results suggest that the reduced sediments may represent a harsher environment with high upward fluid flow, which restrains seawater from penetrating the sediments and inhibits sulphide production, whereas bioturbated sediments can be viewed as a bio-irrigated system with sulphide production occurring at greater depths. Therefore, the environmental conditions in reduced sediments appear to prevent the colonization of symbiont-bearing fauna, such as vesicomyid bivalves, which are more often found in bioturbated sediments. Fluid flow appears to control sulphide availability, which in turn influences the horizontal and vertical distribution patterns of fauna at small spatial scales as observed at other seep sites.     

青南高原西部砂金成矿条件分析

青南高原西部,处于柴达木准地台与松潘—甘孜印支褶皱系衔接部位。属于青藏高原北部的可可西里地区,平均海拔4800—5000m,属高寒荒漠干旱气候区。由昆仑山大起伏高山区及江河源高海拔波状平原区组成二级地貌区。通过对该区近代砂金矿形成的物质来源、新构造运动、地貌、气候、水动力条件及供源条件进行分析,认为该区砂金矿床的规模以及砂金找矿的前景并非如人们估计的那样乐观。

元素活动态测量法在鄂尔多斯盆地砂岩型铀矿勘查中的应用

常规化探方法勘查砂岩型铀矿难以奏效。应用深穿透地球化学方法系列中的元素活动态测量法在鄂尔多斯盆地砂岩型铀矿上的试验结果表明,几种U元素活动态在矿体上方都有异常出现,特别是其中的粘土吸附态U含量级别高、异常衬度大。因此,土壤粘土吸附态U测量法是本区化探找铀矿的有效方法;取样深度和取样粒级分别以60～90cm和-120目为宜;采用400m的取样点距基本不影响本区砂岩型铀矿的找矿效果。在盆地东北部应用土壤粘土吸附态U测量法预测了3个有利地段,并在其中1个地段的深部发现了较好的铀矿化。

广东温泉水-汽转化过程对室内氡浓度的影响

研究了广东省四家温泉宾馆室内温泉水及其使用过程中对氡浓度的影响。利用RAD-7测氡仪和NR667A测氡义连续测量室内外氡浓度和水氡浓度,发现室内氡浓度受地基土壤、建筑物类型、利用方式(是否洗浴、洗浴时间长短等)、通风状况等诸多因素的影响。无人入住时宾馆室内氡浓度的变化说明土壤氡的渗入是底层房间室内氡的重要影响因素。当在浴室内使用温泉水洗浴时,浴室内平均氡浓度比没有用温泉水时高出1～8．3倍,客房内氡浓度比没有用温泉水洗浴时高出1．2～8．3倍。在使用温泉水时,某些宾馆室内氡浓度超标,可能对宾馆工作人员造成潜在的健康危害,应采取管理措施或技术手段降低其暴露水平。
