汶川M_w 7.9级地震同震断层陡坎类型与级联破裂模型

2008年5月12日,汶川Mw7.9级地震在青藏高原东缘沿龙门山逆冲断裂带中段形成了两条NE向和一条NW向逆冲走滑型地表破裂。依据同震地表陡坎形态特征,将其分为8种类型:逆断层陡坎、上盘垮塌陡坎、挤压推覆陡坎、右旋挤压推覆陡坎、断层相关褶皱陡坎、后冲挤压陡坎、上冲叠覆陡坎和局部正断层陡坎。汶川地震所形成的同震地表破裂主要由以逆冲为主的映秀破裂段和兼具逆冲、右旋走滑的北川破裂段两部分组成,这两个破裂段分别对应于Mw7.8与Mw7.6级地震事件;它们还可进一步细分为分别对应于Mw7.5、Mw7.7、Mw7.0和Mw7.5等4个次级事件的4个次级破裂段。这些次级破裂段的级联破裂可以用来解释为什么汶川地震的持续时间长达110 s。余震震源机制分析结果表明,发震断层的倾角随深度的增加而变缓,且从西南向北东逐渐变陡可以用来解释走滑分量增加的成因。此次大地震还表明,沿青藏高原东缘地形抬高的主要驱动力可能是地壳挤压缩短,而不一定是下地壳物质流动和膨胀引起上地壳的隆升。     

Geochemistry of soil gas in the seismic fault zone produced by the Wenchuan Ms 8.0 earthquake, southwestern China

The spatio-temporal variations of soil gas in the seismic fault zone produced by the 12 May 2008 Wenchuan Ms 8.0 earthquake were investigated based on the field measurements of soil gas concentrations after the main shock. Concentrations of He, H₂, CO₂, CH₄, O₂, N₂, Rn, and Hg in soil gas were measured in the field at eight short profiles across the seismic rupture zone in June and December 2008 and July 2009. Soil-gas concentrations of more than 800 sampling sites were obtained. The data showed that the magnitudes of the He and H₂ anomalies of three surveys declined significantly with decreasing strength of the aftershocks with time. The maximum concentrations of He and H₂ (40 and 279.4 ppm, respectively) were found in three replicates at the south part of the rupture zone close to the epicenter. The spatio-temporal variations of CO₂, Rn, and Hg concentrations differed obviously between the north and south parts of the fault zone. The maximum He and H₂ concentrations in Jun 2008 occurred near the parts of the rupture zone where vertical displacements were larger. The anomalies of He, H₂, CO₂, Rn, and Hg concentrations could be related to the variation in the regional stress field and the aftershock activity.     

North Atlantic warming: patterns of long-term trend and multidecadal variability

Climate fluctuations in the North Atlantic Ocean have wide-spread implications for Europe, Africa, and the Americas. This study assesses the relative contribution of the long-term trend and variability of North Atlantic warming using EOF analysis of deep-ocean and near-surface observations. Our analysis demonstrates that the recent warming over the North Atlantic is linked to both long-term (including anthropogenic and natural) climate change and multidecadal variability (MDV, ~50–80 years). Our results suggest a general warming trend of 0.031 ± 0.006°C/decade in the upper 2,000 m North Atlantic over the last 80 years of the twentieth century, although during this time there are periods in which short-term trends were strongly amplified by MDV. For example, MDV accounts for ~60% of North Atlantic warming since 1970. The single-sign basin-scale pattern of MDV with prolonged periods of warming (cooling) in the upper ocean layer and opposite tendency in the lower layer is evident from observations. This pattern is associated with a slowdown (enhancement) of the North Atlantic thermohaline overturning circulation during negative (positive) MDV phases. In contrast, the long-term trend exhibits warming in tropical and mid-latitude North Atlantic and a pattern of cooling in regions associated with major northward heat transports, consistent with a slowdown of the North Atlantic circulation as evident from observations and confirmed by selected modeling results. This localized cooling has been masked in recent decades by warming during the positive phase of MDV. Finally, since the North Atlantic Ocean plays a crucial role in establishing and regulating the global thermohaline circulation, the multidecadal fluctuations discussed here should be considered when assessing long-term climate change and variability, both in the North Atlantic and at global scales.

青海湖沉积物支链和环烷烃组分中C20，C25和C30高度支链类异戊二烯烯烃

在青海湖不同盐度的四孔近代沉积物岩芯（Ｑ－１６Ａ，ＱＨ，ＱＥ和ＱＧ）（图１）抽提物支链和环烷烃组分中检出了非常丰富的Ｃ₂₀，Ｃ₂₅和Ｃ₃₀高度支链类异戊二烯烯烃（ｈｉｇｈｌｙｂｒａｎｃｈｅｄｉｓｏｐｒｅｎｏｉｄａｌｋｅｎｅｓ），简称ＨＢＩ烯烃。这是在我国近代湖泊沉积物发现这类化合物的首次详细报导。由于Ｃ₂₀，Ｃ₂₅和Ｃ₃₀ＨＢＩ烯烃比正构烷烃具有较强的抵抗生物降解的能力（ＲｏｂｓｏｎａｎｄＲｏｗｌａｎｄ，１９８８ｂ），因此，它们广泛分布于各种近代环境中，如湖泊、海洋和高盐环境的近代沉积物中（ＲｏｗｌａｎｄａｎｄＲｏｂｓｏｎ，１９９０）。并且，具有１～６个双键的Ｃ₂₀，Ｃ₂₅和Ｃ₃₀烯烃经常是现代沉积物中丰富的烃类。最近在印度洋现代沉积物中又发现了一个新的具有７个双键的Ｃ₃₅ＨＢＩ烯烃（Ｈｏｅｆｓｅｔａｌ，１９９５）。全饱和的Ｃ₂₀（Ｉ，附图）、Ｃ₂₅（Ⅱ，附图）和Ｃ₃₀（Ⅲ，附图）ＨＢＩ烷烃已通过标样的合成确切地确定了它们的结构。在青海湖ＱＧ孔（尕海，咸水）和ＱＥ孔（耳海，淡水）抽提物中发现了Ｃ₂₀单烯（１号峰，图２ａ）。Ｃ₂₅烯烃（２号峰，图２ａ、２ｂ）和Ｃ₃₀烯烃（主要是３号和８号峰，图２ａ、２ｂ）存在于所有四孔沉积物中。
