Geophysical studies point to a complex tectonic and geodynamic evolution of the Alboran Basin and Gulf of Cadiz.Tomographic images show strong seismic waves velocity contrasts in the upper mantle.The high velocity anomaly beneath the Alboran Sea recovered by a number of studies is now a well established feature.Several geodynamic reconstructions have been proposed also on the base of these images.We present and elaborate on results coming from a recent tomography study which concentrates on both the Alboran and the adjacent Atlantic region.These new results,while they confirm the existence of the fast anomaly below the Alboran region,also show interesting features of the lithosphere-asthenosphere system below the Atlantic.A high velocity body is imaged roughly below the Horseshoe Abyssal plain down to sub-lithospheric depths.This feature suggests either a possible initiation or relic subduction.Pronounced low velocity anomalies pervade the upper mantle below the Atlantic region and separate the lithospheres of the two regions.We also notice a strong change of the upper mantle velocity structure going from south to north across the Gorringe Bank.This variation in structure could be related to the different evolution in the opening of the central and northern Atlantic oceans.     

拉萨地块和羌塘地块多个二叠纪基性岩及一个古特提斯海山的初步古地磁结果:对模拟东冈瓦纳晚古生代裂解的暗示

Detachment of the sliver-like Cimmerian terrane from eastern Gondwana in the Early Permian triggered mafic volcanism in many parts of the rift zone. To understand this tectonic episode we have carried out paleomagnetic investigations on mafic volcanic for-mations that were erupted on key terranes that now form part of Tibet. Specifically, we will present data from sections near Lhasa City (central Lhasa block) and Tuotuohe (central Qiangtang Block) as well as near Gyanyima (Paleotethyan sea-mount) that was emplaced onto the floor of Palaeotethys during the Late Permian. Paleomagnetic plots from each location will be used for tectonic calculations. Our new data will be used to evaluate regional scale models con-cerned with how the Cimmerian terranes in southern and SE Asia (from Iran-Tibet-SW China-Myanmar- Thailand-Sumatra) formerly abutted eastern Gond-wana.     

I AND UTILIZATION IN KUNMING LAKE REGION, YUNNAN

The Kunming Lake, with an area of 324 sq. kin. during its flood water time, is the largest lake in Eastern Yunnan. More than twenty streams from the surrounding mountains empty into the lake which is drained by the TangLang River to the upper Yangtze. Around the Kunming Lake is an extensive     

矿石中铊的极谱测定法

概论铊的電化學性質對铊的極譜測定是很有利的。铊的標準電極電位和標準氧化還原電位等於-0.336和 1.22伏特。當電位趨近於-0.50伏特時,铊離子在滴汞電極止可逆還原。铊的半波電位殘乎與基本電解質(底液)的成份無關。在一切溶液中的铊極譜波就是隨着溶液中铊濃度的減少而又有所變化的很顯著的波階。可直接用極譜測定出的铊的最大濃度等於2—4毫克/毫升或1—2.10~(-5)克分子/立升。根据這些資料似乎可以作出這樣一个結論,即铊的極譜測定並不是一件困難的事。但是這個结論只有對於純的铊鹽溶液才是正確的。     

气象学方面的厄尼诺

1.引言对于大多数年份来说,秘鲁和厄瓜多尔海岸以外的海洋表面水是冷的。每年圣诞节前后,一股暖流在厄瓜多尔海岸以南流动,来替换冷的表面水,这种现象被称为厄尼诺。捕鱼受到轻微的影响,但这种影响是短暂的。然而,有些年份(1891、1925、1941、1957—1958、1965、1972—1973和1976)厄尼诺强而且长。沿秘鲁海岸和赤道东太平洋洋面温度上升,并且可以持续一年以上。鳀鱼捕捞遭受破坏,南美西部热带地区发生异常的大雨。在最近几年中,厄尼诺的最初含意已经失去。对于海洋学家和气象学家来说,现在的厄尼诺则意味着这种主要现象。较早的沿南美海岸的海水上翻速度控制着厄尼诺的海洋学理论,已被Wyrtki(1973,1975)有力地反驳了,他假定厄尼诺是由信风强度的振荡造成的。     

Relationship between structures of substituted indolic compounds and their degradation by marine anaerobic microorganisms

Degradation of selected indolic compounds including indole, 1-methylindole, 2-methylindole, and 3-methylindole was assessed under methanogenic and sulfate-reducing conditions using the serum-bottle anaerobic technique and marine sediment from Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong as an inoculum. Our results showed that indole degradation was achieved in 28 days by a methanogenic consortium and 35 days by a sulfate-reducing consortium. During degradation under both conditions, two intermediates were isolated, purified and identified as oxindole and isatin (indole-2,3-dione) suggesting that both methanogenic and sulfate-reducing bacteria use an identical degradation pathway. Degradation processes followed two steps of oxidation accomplished by hydroxylation and then dehydrogenation at 2- and then 3-position sequentially prior to the cleavage of the pyrrole ring between 2- and 3-positions. However, none of 1-methylindole or 2-methylindole was degraded under any conditions. 3-Methylindole (3-methyl-1H-indole, skatole) was transformed under methanogenic conditions and mineralized only under sulfate-reducing conditions. It is clear that methyl substitution on 1- or 2-position inhibits the initial attack by hydroxylation enzymes making them more persistent in the environment and posing longer toxic impact.

Relationship between 500 hPa ridge axis positions over the indian and the west Pacific regions and the Indian summer monsoon rainfall

500 hPa ridge positions over the Indian and the West Pacific regions during April are related with the summer monsoon rainfall over India. The ridge position over the Indian region shows better relation with monsoon rainfall than that shown by the ridge over the Pacific region. The multiple correlation of these ridge positions with monsoon rainfall exceeds 0.7. These predictive relationships are better than those shown by other parameters, viz. (1) Northern Hemispheric surface temperature; (2) East-Pacific sea surface tempera-ture; (3) El-Nino events and (4) Tahiti-Darwin pressure difference, and index of southern oscillation, over the 30-year samples analysed.
