龙门山断裂构造带GPS研究

龙门山断裂构造带作为川青地块与扬子地块的碰撞边界，具有特殊的构造性质及明显的分段性。根据1991年以来GPS观测结果，对其分段活动性的研究表明：断裂带运动速率北段为1．54ram／a，中段为2．77mm／a，南段为5．23mm／a。现代构造活动性质总体表现为挤压走滑；同时，由北向南逐渐由挤压走滑转变为伸展走滑，其原因为在青藏高原总体运动条件下的相邻活动断裂的相互作用、相互影响。     

中国大陆地壳应力环境基础数据库及查询系统

通过对现有6大类主要地应力基础数据资料——震源机制解、水压致裂、钻孔崩落、应力解除、断层滑动和连续应力应变观测数据的收集整理，建成了便于更新的“中国大陆地壳应力环境基础数据库”。介绍了数据库的结构及其查询分析系统。数据库通过Microsoft Access数据库系统建立，其中震源机制解和水压致裂采用双数据表结构设计，丰富了数据库的数据信息。数据库查询分析系统以MapInfo地理信息系统为技术支持平台，依据“中国大陆地壳应力环境基础数据库”中的数据信息，自动生成空间数据库，实现了地应力数据的地图显示。以此为基础，系统提供了包括可视化地图查询和条件查询在内的多种数据库查询方式，实现了空间图形数据与文本属性数据的相互查询。另外，数据库查询分析系统还提供了地应力研究成果查询、应力方向大小统计分析、专题图及其它辅助功能。     

Deciphering the Origin of Abiotic Organic Compounds on Earth: Review and Future Prospects

The geologic production of abiotic organic compounds has been the subject of increasing scientific attention due to their use in the global carbon flux balance, by chemosynthetic biological communities, and for energy resources. Extensive analysis of methane(CH₄) and other organics in diverse geologic settings, combined with thermodynamic modelings and laboratory simulations, have yielded insights into the distribution of specific abiotic organic molecules on Earth and the favorable c...     

High Phenotypic Variation in Morus alba L. along an Altitudinal Gradient in the Indian Trans-Himalaya

Ten quantitative morphological characters were studied in 56 Morus alba L. trees representing three natural populations from the trans-Himalayan Ladakh region. The altitude of collection sites ranged from 2815 to 3177 m above the sea level(asl). Coefficient of variation(CV) showed high phenotypic variation in M. alba. Linear regression analysis revealed that leaf and fruit size decreases with an increase in altitude. High CV was observed for leaf length, leaf width, petiole length, leaf area, internodal distance, number of nodes, bud length, fruit length, fruit width and fruit weight. Similarly, a high phenotypic plasticity index was observed for bud length, leaf length, leaf width, petiole length, leaf area, inter-nodal distance, number of nodes, fruit length, fruit width and fruit weight. For every 100 m increase in altitude, leaf length, leaf width and leaf area decreased by 1 cm, 0.8 cm and 16.6 cm2, respectively. Analysis of covariance showed a predominant altitudinal effect on the morphological characters in comparison to the population effect. A small change in the altitude caused significant change in the plant morphological characteristics. The present investigation represents to our knowledge the first study addressing phenotypic variation in mulberryalong an altitudinal gradient.     

1991~1996年贝加尔地区地震的震源机制

确定了贝加尔地区１９９１～１９９６年期间８１次能级Ｋ≥１０．０（Ｍ≥３．０）的地震的震源机制。在裂谷带中部的大量震源中发现应力状态有很高的稳定性特征：压应力轴近垂直，张应力轴和中等应力轴近水平。在裂谷西南和东北应力轴有各种各样的走向，但都与震源中的位移类型相对应。新的资料与地壳处于水平张条件下的贝加尔地区内进行的释放过程总趋势是一致的。为了高效地获得信息，把大型计算机求得的震源参数与用手工分析原始
