Simple determination of dimethylsulfide (DMS) and dimethylsulfoniopropionate (DMSP) using solid-phase microextraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry

Solid-phase microextraction (SPME) is a simple, sensitive and less destructive method for the determination of dimethylsulfide (DMS) in seawater. Combined with detection by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS), the method had sufficient sensitivity (minimum detectable concentration of DMS was 0.05 nM), and practical levels of reproducibility (relative standard deviation ≤7%) and linearity (r ² > 0.995) over a wide concentration range (0.5 to 910 nM). The protocol developed was applied to a Sagami Bay water sample to determine concentrations of DMS and DMSP, and in situ DMSP-lyase activity.     

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.     

气候转型与早期人类迁徙

目前的旧石器考古证据表明，更新世早期可能发生了两次人类迁徙浪潮，时间分别在1.8-1.6MaBP和1.0MaBP左右，第一阶段，古人类演化为直立人并开始走出非洲、迁徙至其它中低纬度的热带－亚热带地区；第二阶段，直立人开始占据中高纬度的温带和干旱－半干旱地区。这两个阶段也是第四纪气候发生转型、环境产生重大调整的时期。二者在发生时间上的一致性揭示了它们之间的内在联系，推测气候转型时期环境转变是这两次人类迁徙浪潮的主要驱动力。     

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.

性外激素诱导大弹涂鱼成熟和产卵

成熟大弹涂鱼的卵巢、精巢和储精囊稀释液中的性外激素以及缩宫素和脱氧皮质酮（DOC）能诱导第4时相的大弹涂鱼卵母细胞在离体培养的条件下发育成熟，成熟率与性外激素的种类和剂量有关。前列腺素E1（PGE1）单独使用的效果不明显，但与人绒毛膜促性腺激素（HCG）混合使用时显著提高了卵母细胞的成熟率。以卵巢、精巢和储精囊稀释液以及PGE1分别注射雌性大弹涂鱼，剂量为0．01cm^3/尾的卵巢液、0．1cm^3/尾的储精囊液、0．1cm^3／尾的精巢液以及剂量为10μg/尾的PGE1都有诱导卵母细胞成熟的作用，其中储精囊液的作用最为显著。在人工管道中放置大弹涂鱼成熟亲鱼卵巢、精巢或储精囊的稀释液，有诱异性亲鱼进入管道内的作用，其中以储精囊液对雌鱼的吸引作用尤为明显。放置于陶瓷管道或海绵管道内的卵巢、精巢或储精囊稀释液都能诱导大弹涂鱼产卵，在陶瓷管道的产卵量和受精率显著高于海绵管道。     

我国近海沉积层地震速度特征

我国近海纵向上发育了新生界、中生界碎屑岩和古生界沉积地层。在分析整理收集到的地层速度资料的基础上,分析了地层速度的变化规律:沉积层地震速度随地层的埋深增加而增加,新地层速度低、老地层速度高;欠压实地层的砂岩速度与泥岩速度基本相当或低于泥岩速度,正常地层的砂岩速度大于泥岩速度;砂岩储层的速度随孔隙度的增加而降低,流体成分的变化对速度的影响不大。     

哀牢山-红河断裂带中段应变分析

对哀牢山—红河断裂带中段和平—水塘剖面、墨江—元江剖面和其它地段的岩石应变及磁组构进行了分析，表明应变强度的校正磁各向异性度PJ从断裂带向西至三叠系明显降低，变形强度向西迅速减弱。磁化率椭球体主轴展布反映出剪切带内、外变形方式的改变。剪切带内，以水平走滑运动为主；向西则以水平缩短为主。在应变分析中，对断裂带内的S—C组构两组面理夹角、杏仁体和石榴石应变标志体进行了测量，结果显示，剪切带内的磁组构和岩石组构间关系较差。此外，还对这两条剖面中的三叠系进行了应变和磁组构分析，找出了它们与磁化率椭球体对应轴率间的相关性。     

牙鲆鱼苗长途运输技术的试验研究

本实验对10个批次，总数为19047尾的不同规格和产地的牙鲆鱼苗长途运输效果进行了研究。结果表明，规格为9-12cm的鱼苗，在水温6－12℃，运输时间为35－50h，采用空运和低温活水车运输，运输死亡率为664尾，死亡率为3.39%，低温活水车短途运输是可行的，尽管长途车运方式成本较低，但由于应激强度较大，对鱼苗的生长性能影响较为严重，驯养10d累计死亡率最高达18.1%，这种模式不可取。低温（6℃）、小规格（9cm)的空运较适合牙鲆鱼苗长途运输。此外，本文还就运输应激反应、预防措施和药物防治进行详细的讨论。
