A CASE OF MESOSCALE CONVECTIVE COMPLEX EVOLVING INTO A VORTEX*

A case of mesoscale convective complex(MCC) which evolved into a vortex is documented in this paper.As the MCC entered into the dissipating phase,a well-defined spirally banded structure became visible in the satellite image.The blackbody temperature(TBB) of the residual cold-cloud-shield indicates the vortex existed in the layer from 400 to 250 hPa.According to the upper air analysis,the upper level vortex was an anticyclone.The MCC-generated vortex was visualized in the satellite images because it was located in the subtropical high where the wind field was very weak.

Discovery of lipitobiolite in suqiao area—On the discrimination of coal-generated gases and oils and their prospects

Based on the fluorescence microscopic study, organic compositional analysis and simulating experiments on core samples and cuttings in the Suqiao area, it is found that the Carboniferous-Permian coal-bearing formations have substrata rich in spore, cuticle, resin and bark. These substrata have high potential for hydrocarbons, with S₁ + S₂ high up to about 200, high productivity of liquid hydrocarbons (73.5 mg / g or more) and natural gases (up to 194 ml / g). The substrata are thought to be an important source for natural gases and condensates found in this area. According to biomarker compounds and carbon and hydrogen isotope data from the Suqiao natural gas-condensate field, the coal and its simulating products, characteristics of coal-generated gases and oils from a special kind of coal and their correlation methods are discussed in the paper. In terms of the geochemical conditions of formation the distribution regularities of paralic coal rich in hydrogen, the commercial prospects of Carboniferous-Permian coal-generated oils have been evaluated as well.     

Physicochemical parameter charts for gases in fluid inclusions

A great wealth of analytical data for fluid inclusions in minerals indicate that the major species of gases in fluid inclusions are H₂O, CO₂, CO, CH₄, H₂ and O₂. Three basic chemical reactions are supposed to prevail in rock-forming and ore-forming fluids: $$\begin{gathered} H_2 + 1/2{\text{ O}}_{\text{2}} = H_2 O, \hfill \\ CO + 1/2{\text{ O}}_{\text{2}} = CO_2 , \hfill \\ CH_4 + 2{\text{O}}_{\text{2}} = CO_2 + 2H_2 O, \hfill \\ \end{gathered} $$ and equilibria are reached among them. \(\lg f_{O_2 } - T,{\text{ }}\lg f_{CO_2 } - T\) and Eh-T charts for petrogenesis and minerogenesis in the supercritical state have been plotted under different pressures. On the basis of these charts \(f_{O^2 } ,{\text{ }}f_{CO_2 } \) , Eh, equilibrium temperature and equilibrium pressure can be readily calculated. In this paper some examples are presented to show their successful application in the study of the ore-forming environments of ore deposits.     

电子显微镜观测AgI水溶胶的颗粒谱

为了解AgI水溶胶在人工降雨实验中的成冰能力,我们用电子显微镜对AgI水溶胶中的AgI粒子的谱分布进行了观测。结果表明:不同配方AgI水溶胶的颗粒谱分布略有差别,但同一配方不同浓度的AgI水溶胶的颗粒谱分布几乎没有差别。若取不同配方、不同浓度的九种AgI水溶胶样品的平均谱分布,则直径大于0.05μ的粒子占总粒子数的3％。如果假定这些粒子在低温下都能起冰核作用,则1克AgI的最高成核率为10~(14)/克。然而,当在播撒过程中AgI水溶胶的雾滴对AgI粒子的分散不利时,AgI成核率将低于此值;如果假定AgI水溶胶的粒子以冻结水滴的形式使云晶化,水滴冻结将引起冰晶繁生作用,这将会使AgI的成核率高于上述的估算值。     

Geochemical features and petrogenesis of Miaoya carbonatites,Hubei Province

The lens-shaped Miaoya carbonatite complex, located west of the Wudang massif, Hubei Province, consists of several types of carbonatites associated with syenites. According to their composition, the carbonatites can be classified into four types, i. e., sovite, alvikite, carbon-bearing alvikite and ankeritic carbonatite. Their average composition is in agreement with the abundance values for carbonatites compiled by Gold (1966). There are three stages recognizable: the earliest sovite and alvikite followed by carbon-bearing alvikite, with ankeritic carbonatite being the latest. Some rules dominating the distribution of major and rare elements are observed with respect to the evolution of these carbonatites, for example, Nb is essentially enriched in sovite. Except for niobite and ilmenorutile, there are also pyrochlore, nioboeschynite and fersmite. RE are concentrated mainly in ankeritic carbonatite, within which bastnasite, parisite and monazite are found. In general, Ca, Nb, and Sr decrease, while Fe, Mg, Mn, and RE increase from earlier to later stages. It is suggested that the carbonatites are genetically connected with syenitic magma.     

Isotopic geochronology of mesozoic acid volcanic rocks in Zhejiang Province,China

Volcano-sedimentary series of the Upper Jurassic to the Lower Cretaceous are extensively developed in Zhejiang Province. But ages and stratigraphic correlation concerning these rocks have long been a controversial problem. Systematic sampling was made of volcanic rocks of the Laocun, Huangjian, Shouchang and Moshishan Formations in western Zhejiang considered thus far as the Late Jurassic. Isotopic age determinations show that U-Th-Pb zircon ages are approximately concordant with Rb-Sr isochron ages, whereas K-Ar biotite ages and K-Ar isochron ages are all slightly lower. It can therefore be established that the ages of volcanic rocks mentioned above range from 134±6 to 122±2 m.y., corresponding to the “transitional period” from Jurassic to Cretaceous. It can also be concluded that the rocks have not undergone apparent epigenetic metamorphism. The initial⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio is about 0.7089–0.7121, on the basis of which it may be postulated that the volcanic magma seems to have originated from the upper mantle with contamination by sialic materials subsequent to differentiation. For age determinations of such acid volcanic rocks Rb-Sr isochron method is considered more suitable in view of its following advantages: the high reliability of results; wide applicability to different samples; smaller sample requirement and the possibility for further studies involving petrogenesis by use of initial⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio.

地方震尾波震级的初步研究

地方震尾波由地壳横向不均匀性而产生的反向散射波组成。从这一观点出发,根据尾波随掠过时间的衰减特性,结合地震矩对数和地方震里克特地震级的线性关系,导出利用任一掠过时间的震尾来计算的尾波震级Mc公式。它的简化形式可以和持续时间震级的表达式近似一致。尾波震级可作为持续时间震级的一种广义形式,它是直接从震源地震矩导出的震级标度,从而为解释持续时间震级物理基础提供了可能的途径。应用于丹江地震台的资料,得到丹江口及邻区的尾波品质因子和介质函数以及地震矩对数和震级的期望关系,同时得到实用于该台的持续时间震级和简化尾波震级公式。
