由大地测量数据得到的犹他州沃萨奇断层带的全新世滑动速率：地震周期效应

在美国西部盆地山脉省的东部地区，GPS数据确定了一个宽大的现代变形带。使用覆盖在粘弹性下地壳／上地幔之上的弹性上地壳的有限元模型并结合地震周期效应，我们指出这些数据与现今的断层滑动集中在沃萨奇断层带上的模型是一致的。模拟的水平扩展速度是3．0～4．5mm／a，这也与全新世的地质数据相一致。这些模型是非一的，部分原因是大部分沃萨奇断层都处于地震周期的后期阶段，而这一时期跨断层的地表速度梯度均较低。     

斐济一汤加地幔过渡带的地震波各向异性

论述了一个不常见的、明显的过渡带(TZ)各向异性的实例，证据来自于许多比垂直偏振剪切波(SV)早到3S的水平偏振剪切波(SH)。各向异性区与远离活动俯冲带及已知的纵、横波速度横向非均匀体边界的深震相关。我们把这一各向异性区解释为与岩石层残骸中的巨大岩石异常体有关的强组构，这个巨大的岩石异常体悬浮并滞留于过渡带中。冷板块的快速俯冲非常适合于这种组构的形成，因此板块穿透到下地幔并不能普遍发生。     

冬小麦遥感冠层温度监测土壤含水量的试验研究

在冬小麦主要生育期(2002年4月初到5月底),对不灌溉的冬小麦测定了冠层温度、地温、气温以及土壤含水量,计算了冠气温差且分析了冠层温度和冠气温差与不同土层厚度的土壤含水量相关关系。结果表明:14:00的冠层温度能较好地反映20cm土层的土壤含水量变化,但与其它各土层相关性有较大的波动性;14:00的冠气温差能较好地反映40cm以上土层的土壤含水量变化,二者的相关性很高,在20cm、40cm土层,两者相关系数R2分别为0.98866、0.99389,这为用区域遥感数据反演主要生育期冬小麦的冠气温差进而监测区域40cm土壤含水量提供了实验性的依据;拔节期和灌浆期,用14:00冠气温差来拟合各土壤层的土壤含水量有较高的精度,从而为用区域遥感数据监测区域土壤含水量提供了经验性的模型。     

苏门答腊Mw=9．3级地震会触发地磁急变吗？

在地球表面观测到的磁场并不具备稳态特征，而是具有非常明显的时间变化特征——从毫秒(微脉动)一直到数百万年(地磁场倒转之间的时间间隔)不等。周期为一年或一年以上的时间变化与地球的外核起源有关，而当涉及更短一些的时标时，则往往借助于一种外来成因(如太阳活动)。     

2001年1月26日布季Mw7．6级地震的余震震源参数及构造含义

介绍并讨论了现代地震学时期发生的最大大陆板内地震的1000多次余震的空间分布。其数据是由8台便携式数字测震仪组成的台网在主震后17天开始用3周时间记录的。我们已计算了高质量的单一事件位置,所基于的是由这个地区震级为2-5 的地震确定的一维速度模型。余震定位揭示出活动集中在一个近东走向的向南倾斜的面上,呈梯形分布。活动带沿走向逐渐变短,从深度约为5 km的浅部长度约为45 km到 35 km的深度不足25 km。整个破裂区面积约为1300 km2。我们估计主震的静态应力降为16±2 MPa。余震扩展到几乎整个地壳,集中在10 km深的上地壳,和约26 km 深的下地克。断层破裂没有在地表出露,也不知道它在2001地震前是否是活断层。余震数据与布季主震一致,主震是由夭折裂谷的拉张作用形成的断层在收缩过程中的重新激活引起的。     

2004年12月26日苏门答腊—安达曼地震激发的地球自由振荡

根据300~500S的面波估计得到的哈佛大学矩心矩张量断层机制,当周期大于1000S时,地球的地震自由振荡的振幅将异常地大。我们对一个比较陡的断层应用根据地震的体波和面波得到的更真实的破裂模型,估计了自由振荡的振幅近似等于地震矩(6.5×1022N.M),这相当于矩震级为9.15。由于破裂的持续时间达600S,故断层破裂模型足以描述地震的观测结果,但却低估了大地测量位移,这些位移表明在尼科巴群岛和安达曼群岛下面发生了缓慢的断层运动。

Is maturity index an efficient tool to assess the effects of the physical disturbance on the marine nematode assemblages?—A critical interpretation of disturbance-induced maturity successions in some study cases in Maldives

Maturity index(MI), based on nematode life strategies, has been proposed in 1990 to assess the possible variations of the terrestrial and freshwater nematode assemblages induced by anthropogenic activities. It was subsequently applied also to marine ecosystems and, even if comparatively not yet very popular, it offers a good method to assess the ecological quality in relation to a wide range of anthropogenic drivers. However, few data are available on its response to physical stress, a key factor especially in the coastal areas. In this study, marine nematode genera from two study cases carried out in Maldives are used to test both MI and life strategy traits(i.e., c-p classes) for detecting the effects of physical disturbance. The results confirm that nematodes are well adapted to physical stress showing a general high rate of recovery. C-p scaling and MI did not seem to be appropriate for revealing this disturbance type probably because there are no empirical evidences on the life strategy of several genera, and a possible differential response to various disturbance types may be hypothesized.     

The Mesoproterozoic to early Neoproterozoic passive margin Lajeado Group and Apiaí Gabbro,Southeastern Brazil

The Lajeado Group in the Ribeira Belt,southeastern Brazil,corresponds to an open-sea carbonate platform,comprised of seven overlapping siliciclastic and carbonatic formations,intruded in its upper portion by the Apiai Gabbro.These rocks have a Neoproterozoic tectonometamorphic overprint related to arc magmatism and the Brasiliano collisional orogeny.Geochronological constraints are given by new UPb SHRIMP and LA-ICP-MS data for Lajeado Group detrital zircons and for magmatic zircons from the Apiai Gabbro.The youngest detrital zircons in the Lajeado Group are 1400-1200 Ma,and constrain its maximum age of deposition to be 1200 Ma,whereas the 877 ± 8 Ma age for magmatic zircons in the Apiai Gabbro give the minimum age.Detritus source areas are mainly Paleoproterozoic(2200-1800 Ma)with some Archean and Mesoproterozoic contribution(1500-1200 Ma),with distal or tectonic stable cratonic character.The Lajeado Group should be a Stenian-Tonian carbonate platform passive margin of a continent at this time,namely the Columbia/Nuna or the Rodinia.The Apiai Gabbro displays similar age to other intrusive basic rocks in the Lajeado and Itaiacoca groups and represents tholeiitic MORB-like magmatism that we relate to the initial break-up of a Mesoproterozoic continent and the formation of the Brasiliano oceans.
