Eddy Shedding from the Kuroshio Bend at Luzon Strait

TOPEX/POSEDIENT-ERS satellite altimeter data along with the mean state from the Parallel Ocean Climate Model result have been used to investigate the variation of Kuroshio intrusion and eddy shedding at Luzon Strait during 1992–2001. The Kuroshio penetrates into the South China Sea and forms a bend. The Kuroshio bend varies with time, periodically shedding anticyclonic eddies. Criteria of eddy shedding are identified: 1) When the shedding event occurs, there are usually two centers of high Sea Surface Height (SSH) together with negative geostrophic vorticity in the Kuroshio Bend (KB) area. 2) Between the two centers of high SSH there usually exists positive geostrophic vorticity. These criteria have been used to determine the eddy shedding times and locations. The most frequent eddy shedding intervals are 70, 80 and 90 days. In both the winter and summer monsoon period, the most frequent locations are 119.5°E and 120°E, which means that the seasonal variation of eddy shedding location is unclear.     

Geodynamics of the deep sedimentary basin of the Caspian Sea region: paragenetic correlation of seismicity and mud volcanism

In this paper we analyze seismic regime and earthquake depth distribution and correlation of seismicity and mud volcanism in the Azerbaijan and the Caspian Sea region. For the present region we have calculated accurate source locations, seismic activity, earthquake repetition and released earthquake energy parameters. It is shown that the active tectonic processes in the region are concentrated within the thick sedimentary cover that we consider as a general source of contemporary stress and a main structural element responsible for the origin of regional earthquakes. The correlation of seismicity and mud volcanism is of paragenetic character.

Influence of Kuroshio water on the distribution of dissolved oxygen in the northern East China Sea

On the basis of the four-cruise investigation data of the Kuroshio by the R/V "Xiangyanghong 09", this paper lays stress on the discussion of the relationship between the Kuroshio current systems, the distribution of dissolved oxygen in the northern East China Sea (ECS) and seasonal variations.     

细基江蓠脂肪酸组成研究

研究表明,南海细基江蓠Gracilaria tenuistipitata中主要含有C_9—C_(30)一元饱和脂肪酸,其中n-十六酸含量占脂肪酸组分的40％以上。单烯和二烯酸的含量较低,缺乏多烯酸及前列腺素类化合物。此外,还含有少量二元酸类、4-及5-羰基羧酸,其中后两者是首次在红藻中发现。南海细基江蓠的脂肪酸组成特征与南海海域水质较清、光照充足及水温较高等环境因素有关。

Study on rain-runoff process in the peripheral mountainous area of the Sichuan Basin

Studies on rain-runoff process in the peripheral mountainous area of the Sichuan Basin, which is regarded as a key ecological shelter, will contribute to flood control and environmental protection for the Upper Yangtze River Basin. In two typical catchments--the Fujiang River Catchment and the Wujiang River Catchment, rainfall simulations have been conducted to study the rain-runoff processes of yellow soil and limestone soil in three types of land use--forestland, farmland and grassland. Results showed that （1） within the same rainfall process, overland flow occurs first on farmland, then on grassland, and finally on forestland; （2） soil surface coverage has a great impact on the occurrence and amount of overland flow. The runoff amount can increase 2-4 times after the coverage is removed; （3） the infiltration before the occurrence of overland flow will decrease because of higher gravel contents of soil, but it takes no effect on infiltration once overland flow becomes stable; （4） the runoff coefficient of the limestone soil forestland is greater than that of the yellow soil forest land, but less than that of the farmland; （5） three empirical infiltration models, including Horton＇ model, Kostiakov＇ model, and modified Kostiakov＇ model, were compared by using the observed results under rainfall simulation. The results showed that the Kostiakov＇ model performed better than both the Horton＇ model and modified Kostiakov model. According to the results of this research, the Kostiakov＇s model can be used to simulate rainfall infiltration when water erosion is modeled in the peripheral mountainous area of the Sichuan Basin.

137Cs示踪的渤海湾黄骅港两侧海区的沉积特征

取自黄骅港防波堤两侧海区的7个无扰动柱状沉积物岩心的^137Cs示踪研究显示．该区^137Cs曲线可以分为3种类型：①不连续的^137Cs曲线（表层未检测到^137Cs）,②连续的^137Cs曲线（表层检测到^137Cs）,③未检测到^137Cs的曲线。^137Cs示踪的沉积速率结果显示：①NE向伸展的防砂堤截断原SE向的沿岸流后,造成了黄骅港防波堤两侧近岸差异性现代沉积过程,即堤北侧距岸约4km以内海区现代沉积速为0．69～1．12cm／a,堤南侧距岸约4km处的站位8以内无沉积物沉积;（2）防砂堤南侧的岸外10km、水深约-4m处,存在一个速率高达1．36cm／a的现代沉积中心。上述结果与前人的工作成果对比表明,黄骅港建港前后,现代沉积速率的空间分布特征发生了明显的变化,进一步说明与人类活动密切相关的地质环境变化主导了现在的地质环境变化．应当引起人们的更多重视。
