Nutrient and chlorophyll a anomaly in red-tide periods of 2003-2008 in Sishili Bay, China

Sishili Bay is the most important aquiculture and tourism area for the city of Yantai, China; however, red tides occurred frequently and have caused huge economic losses in this bay in recent years. To gain a better understanding of the local ecological environments in the bay, we conducted this research between 2003 and 2008 to analyze variations in nutrients and chlorophyll (chl-a) during high frequency red tide period (May to September). The results show that the chl-a concentration increased from 2.70 in 2003 to 7.26 mg/m3 in 2008, while the concentration of total inorganic nitrogen (TIN) and silicate (SiO3-Si) increased lineally from 5.18 and 1.45 μmol/L in 2003 to 18.57 and 9.52 μmol/L in 2008, respectively, and the annual phosphate (PO4-P) varied between 0.15 and 0.46 μmol/L. Special attention was given to a red tide in August 2007 occurred when water temperature was high and nutrient concentrations increased sharply because of a heavy rainfall. Overall, the results show the P limitation in Sishili Bay, and reveal that red tides were caused by eutrophication from terrestrial inputs and local warm weather, particularly during rainy periods. Therefore, to control red tide, greater efforts should be made to reduce sewage discharges into Sishili Bay, particularly during rainfall seasons.     

Finite element modelling of non-linear deformation of rate-dependent materials using a R-minimum strategy

A R-minimum strategy, which was proposed and successfully applied to analyse the non-linear rate-independent finite deformation (including the thermal–mechanical coupling and frictional contact) of elasto-plastic materials, is extended and applied here to simulate the deformation of rate-dependent materials. It involves no iterations, thus belongs to the static-explicit algorithm and avoids the convergence problem resulting from nonlinearities. The R-minimum strategy-based adaptive control scheme of the time step size is proposed and applied to the related analysis of the rate-dependent materials with both the time-dependent and the time-independent viscosity. Both the simple benchmark test and the practical application in evaluation of the effect of the Earth materials on its response to the centrifugal force are carried out to demonstrate the stability, efficiency and usefulness of this algorithm.     

阿尔泰造山带南缘昆格依特岩体LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb年代学、岩石成因及其地质意义

昆格依特岩体出露于阿尔泰造山带南缘青河县大青格里河昆格依特一带,主要为角闪黑云英云闪长岩。LA-ICP-MS锆石U-Pb定年结果显示,锆石的²⁰⁶Pb/²³⁸U年龄加权平均值为(403.4±7.4)Ma,表明该岩体形成于早泥盆世。岩体的SiO₂含量介于52.39%~71.89%之间,里特曼指数为0.68~1.53,A/CNK 值为0.76~1.06,属中钾、钙碱性、准铝质-弱过铝质岩石。具有富集Cs、Rb、Th、U等大离子亲石元素和轻稀土元素,相对亏损Nb、Ta、Hf、Ti等高场强元素和重稀土元素,弱的负Eu异常(δEu=0.56~0.86)的岛弧岩浆岩特征。结合区域地质资料,认为阿尔泰造山带南缘早泥盆世昆格依特岩体形成于活动大陆边缘的陆缘弧构造环境,是古亚洲洋俯冲过程中幔源的基性岩浆底侵下地壳使之熔融,并发生了岩浆混合和分异作用的产物。     

高烈度区大跨刚构-连续梁桥地震响应分析

为研究大跨刚构-连续梁桥在高烈度地区的地震响应,选取羊记沟左线大桥为工程背景,利用Midas软件建立多个有限元模型,考虑纵、横桥向的水平地震波输入,比较反应谱与时程分析结果,获得结构动力响应特点,为大跨刚构-连续梁桥的抗震设计提供参考依据。结果表明:刚构-连续体系仅单墩刚构时不宜采用反应谱分析,高烈度地区桥梁进行地震响应时程分析时,选用与场地适应的地震波的同时,应考虑采用本地地震参数转化人工波作为地震激励源。桥墩不等高时,可通过改变墩截面形状及其与主梁连接方式调节内力分布,避免矮墩刚度大导致的内力集中。

Analysis of Some Characteristics of the Fault Activities in Eastern China by Satellite Images

Active faults have special electromagnetic effect and remote sensing characteristics, and exhibit unique im-agery marks in satellite images. A comprehensive comparison of images of active faults in eastern China and ananalysis of geologic and geomorphic data can tell us some characteristics of fault activity in the area during theneotectonic period: 1) The fault activities of the north-south tectonic zone, North China and Taiwan werestronger than those of southeastern and northeastern China; 2) the faulting in the north-south tectonic zone,North China and Taiwan has continued up to now, and most of the fault activites in southeastern andnorth-eastern China have become weaker since the Middle Pleistocene; 3) the activity is unsteady in time, mostbeing intermittent, or episodic, i.e. alternately strong and weak; 4) most active faults of a definite size can be di-vided into several segments which somewhat differ from each other in the characteristics of the activity.
