Combined effects of light intensity and NH^＋4-enrichment on growth,pigmentation, and photosynthetic performance of Ulva prolifera （Chlorophyta）

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of light intensity and enhanced nitrogen supply on the growth and photosynthesis of the green-tide macroalga, Ulva prolifera. Thalli of U. prolifera were grown in natural or NH 4 +-enriched seawater under two different light intensities for 7 days, and then the growth rate, pigmentation, and photosynthetic performance of the thalli were evaluated. The results show that the relative growth rate(RGR) was markedly higher under the high light level than under the low light level. Enrichment with NH 4 + enhanced the RGR under high light intensity, but did not affect RGR under low light intensity. In low light conditions, NH 4 +-enrichment resulted in a marked decrease in the maximal photosynthetic rate( P m) and the maximum carbon fixation rate( V max), but it did not affect the half saturation constant for carbon( K 0.5) or the ratio of V max to K 0.5, which reflects the carbon acquisition efficiency. In high light conditions, P m, K 0.5, and the dark respiration rate( R d) increased under NH 4 + enrichment, but V max and the V max / K 0.5 ratio decreased. Regardless of the light intensity, NH 4 +-enrichment did not affect the apparent photosynthetic efficiency( α), which refl ects the ability of the alga to use light energy at low light levels. Under both low and high light intensities, the chlorophyll a(Chl a), chlorophyll b(Chl b), and carotenoids(Car) contents in thalli were higher in NH 4 +-enriched than in natural seawater, except that there was a decrease in the Chl b content of thalli in NH 4 +-enriched seawater under low light intensity. Therefore, NH 4 + enrichment improved the growth and photosynthetic performance of U. prolifera under high light intensity, but not under low light intensity. We discuss the possible mechanisms underlying these physiological responses.     

南召地区九峰垛一带熊耳群火山岩砾石的发现及其意义

南召地区九峰垛南侧熊沟、黑虎庙、崇兴寺一带上侏罗-下白垩统砂砾岩中发现大量熊耳群火山岩砾石,证明该区头道河-杨树庄断裂带,可作为我省槽台界限通过的具体位置;证实了伏牛山花岗岩体是燕山晚期岩浆作用所形成;以及燕山晚期以前秦岭褶皱系与华北地台就已连为一体,且其地形为北高南低,这样才能使被剥蚀的大量熊耳群火山岩砾石被冲积到九峰垛南侧的熊沟、黑虎庙、崇兴寺一带。而且该地区大量熊耳群火山岩砾石的存在和发现,对研究整个东秦岭及华北地台区的构造演化有着重要的地质意义。

华熊地块中生代岩浆作用的物质继承性

中生代是华熊地块最重要的岩浆作用时期。通过对其中主要地体中燕山期改造型花岗岩和同熔型花岗岩的同位素研究,结合其形成物质背景和地质特征,认为它们的物质特征主要取决于它们继承各自不同的地体物质(特别是基底物质)和同一地体物质的多少程度。地体及其中生代岩浆作用的构造环境是解释这一继承机理的主要因素。     

湖北省随州三里岗地区二长花岗岩Rb-Sr、40Ar/39Ar同位素年龄

三里岗二长花岗岩与花山蛇绿混杂岩中的基性火山岩呈侵入接触关系,其年龄的确定可解决花山蛇绿混杂岩中基性岩形成年龄的上限问题. 本文对三里岗二长花岗岩分别进行了Sm、Nd同位素研究及Rb-Sr、40Ar/39Ar同位素年龄测定.3个全岩样品的Nd模式年龄平均值为1 064±105 Ma;12个全岩样品的Rb-Sr等时线年龄为422±53(2σ)Ma;二长花岗岩中所含角闪石矿物的40Ar/39Ar坪年龄为141.4±0.3 Ma,等时线年龄为142±2 Ma.这些结果暗示了花山蛇绿混杂岩中基性火山岩的形成年龄不可能晚于422 Ma.     

宁波地区地震危险性分析简述

本文论述了宁波盆地附近区域构造的活动性及其对宁波地区地震的影响，并通过对该区历史地震的时空分析划分了潜在震源区，确定了地震活动参数。采用地震点源扩散模型计算了宁波市的地震危险性，得到了地震烈度和峰值加速度的超越概率。从而由地质构造活动性和地震活动性两方面评估了宁波地区的地震危险性。可作为各类工程建设规划参考。
