The hypoxia of the bottom waters in the Razdolnaya River estuary was observed for the first time in September 2014 during the survey. It is formed as in the seaward part: oxygen is absorbed as a result of destruction of excessive phytoplankton biomass that settles to the bottom and is synthesized on the upper horizon. The high value of primary production in the riverine part of the estuary was caused by the pycnocline formed. Thus, phytoplankton “blooms” above and undergoes destruction beneath the pycnocline. Oxygen is distributed symmetrically in both parts of the estuary with respect to a bar: similar oxygen concentrations, which are maximum on the surface and minimum at the bottom, 300 and <60 μm/L, respectively, are recorded. The anomalies of hydrochemical parameters that have been formed during this process are sharply different in the two parts of the estuary, which most vividly manifests itself in the N/P value and the partial pressure of carbon dioxide pCO2. The causes of this unique situation are discussed.
A new record ponyfish, Deveximentum megalolepis Mochizuki and Hayashi, 1989, was documented based on its morphological characteristics and DNA barcode. Fifty specimens were collected from Beibu Gulf of China and identified as D. megalolepis by morphological characterization. The coloration, meristic traits, and morphometric measurements were consistent with previously published records. In general, it is a silver-white, laterally compressed and deep bodied ponyfish with 6–9 rows of scales on cheek; scale rows above lateral line 6–8; scale rows below lateral line 14–17. Mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase I subunit (COI) gene fragment was sequenced for phylogenetic analysis. There is no sequence variation of COI gene between the specimens collected in this study. The genetic distances between D. megalolepis and other congeneric species range from 3.6% to 14.0%, which were greater than the threshold for fish species delimitation. The COI sequence analysis also supported the validity of D. megalolepis at genetic level. However, the genetic distance between Chinese and Philippine individuals was about 1.2% and they formed two lineages in gene tree, which may be caused by the geographical distance. 相似文献
On the study of the basic characteristics of geological objects and the special requirement for computing 3D geological model, this paper gives an object-oriented 3D topologic data model. In this model, the geological objects are divided into four object classes: point, line, area and volume. The volume class is further divided into four subclasses: the composite volume, the complex volume, the simple volume and the component. Twelve kinds of topological relations and the related data structures are designed for the geological objects. 相似文献

This paper presents numerical investigation on the ore-forming fluid migration driven by
tectonic deformation and thermally-induced buoyancy force in the Chanziping ore district in South
China. A series of numerical scenarios are considered to examine the effect of meteoric water precipitation,
the dip angle of the faults, unconformity surface, and thermal input on the ore genesis. Our computations
reveal that the downward basinal fluid flow driven by extensional stress mixes with the upward
basal fluid driven by the thermal input from depth at the junction of two faults at a temperature of about
200 C, triggering the precipitation of the Chanziping uranium deposit. 相似文献
The Guantan landslide, with a total displaced mass of about 468 × 104 m3, was triggered by the 2008 Wenchuan earthquake and succeeding rainfall in Jushui Town, Sichuan Province, China. The landslide occurred on an anti-dip hard rock slope with a weak rock founding stratum of 200 m in thickness. To investigate the failure mechanism of the Guantan landslide, dynamic behaviors of hard and soft rock slopes were investigated by means of large scale shaking table tests. The laboratory models attempted to simulate the field geological conditions of the Guantan landslide. Sinusoidal waves and actual seismic waves measured from the Wenchuan Earthquake were applied on the slope models under 37 loading configurations. The experimental results indicated that deformation mainly developed at a shallow depth in the upper part of the hard rock slope and in the upper (near the crest) and lower (near the toe) parts of the soft rock slope. An equation for predicting the depth of sliding plane was proposed based on the location of the maximum horizontal acceleration. Finally, it was concluded that the failure process of the Guantan landslide occurred in three stages: (1) toppling failure caused by compression of the underlying soft rock strata, (2) formation of crushed hard rock and sliding surface in soft rock as the result of seismic shocks, particularly in the horizontal direction, and (3) aftershock rainfall accelerates the process of mass movement along the sliding plane. 相似文献
