Numerical investigation on propulsion of the counter-wind current in the northern South China Sea in winter

The propulsion of the winter counter-wind current in the northern South China Sea (SCS) is investigated with a regional, three-dimensional, primitive equation model. This current is usually called the SCS Warm Current (SCSWC). Model results well reproduced the banded structure of the Guangdong coastal current, the SCSWC and the slope current from the coast to the slope in the northern SCS in the climatological data. The across-shelf flow is active in the shelf break area. Both onshore and offshore flows exist; the net across-shelf transport is shoreward throughout the year, and is larger in winter than in other seasons. The joint effect of baroclinicity and relief (JEBAR) is the dominant forcing of the across-shelf transport in the shelf break area. The major mass source of the SCSWC is the onshore-veered slope current. It is the JEBAR effect that supplies the necessary negative vorticity to maintain the slope current flowing across the isobaths and veering to the right hand to feed the SCSWC. Analyses of the momentum fields indicate that the onshore pressure gradient in the outer shelf balances the Coriolis force induced by the northeastward SCSWC in the frame of geostrophy. In winter, such an onshore pressure gradient is mainly provided by the strong density contrast between waters of the shelf and of the upper slope, which results from the Kuroshio intrusion via the Luzon Strait. The notable intrusion of the Kuroshio in winter is crucial for maintaining the density structure in the shelf break area and facilitates the set-up of the onshore pressure gradient over the outer shelf.     

矿物磁性特征在金矿床形成及成矿预测中的作用

金矿床形成和成矿预测一直为国内外学者所关注。随绿岩带金矿、暗色岩易富金及赤铁矿总含有大粒金等不断地被发现,指示矿物磁性对金矿床形成有一定的控制作用。1)金粒级的大小与磁体间作用力的强弱呈正比,磁力的大小与两磁体间距离的平方呈反比,这正、反比规律进一步解析绿岩带富金机理和强、弱磁性岩石富金条件的差别。2)电流在金、黄铁矿和磁黄铁矿等附近每一点都能产生磁化场(H场)和磁通密度(B场),H场和B场的大小与不同成矿介质具有一定的正比例关系,按此比例可追踪含矿流体形成过程和富金条件。3)根据矿物磁性特征,建立了矿物磁力晕、矿物磁性矢量等找矿标志。4)除温度和压力等因素外,矿物磁性特征应视为金矿床形成和预测主要条件之一。     

水体溶解态黑碳的分子标志物苯多羧酸的气相色谱-质谱分析

苯多羧酸分子标志物法是定量水体中溶解态黑碳的常用方法,然而由于部分苯多羧酸,尤其是硝基苯多羧酸商业化标准品的缺失,采用该方法定量溶解态黑碳仍需进一步完善和优化。本文通过已有的苯多羧酸商业化标准品,建立了气相色谱-质谱联用仪(GC-MS)分离和定量 9 种缺少商业化标准品苯多羧酸的分析方法。并首次将菲-D10 作为溶解态黑碳的替代物,指示苯多羧酸法定量溶解态黑碳过程中的损失率。结果表明,该方法具有良好的重现性(RSD=10.34%),方法检出限为 0.67~5.38 ng/L。本文采用该方法分析了大亚湾表层水体溶解态黑碳的分布特征,其浓度范围为 30.38~46.19 μg/L,平均值为(38.93±6.17)μg/L,空间分布表现为从湾内到外海递减的趋势。     

中国东北深源地震机理

深源地震机理的研究有助于深入了解板块构造的驱动机制和动力学特征。对中国唯一的深震区--东北深震区的深震分布特征和震源机制解进行了综述和初步研究,初步探索了地震的发震机理、动力源以及地震的空间分布与西北太平洋俯冲板块的关系。分析结果显示：（1）震源深度在SEE NWW方向上有依次加深的趋势,而在SSW NNE方向上却没有明显变化,震源机制解的应力状态以下倾的压缩应力为主,说明中国东北深震的发生与西北太平洋板块向欧亚大陆的俯冲直接相关;（2）从日本海沟到我国东北,震源深度依次加深且几乎是从日本海沟沿直线倾斜下来,说明我国东北深震是日本海深震序列的一部分,同属于环太平洋地震带;（3）通过与东北深震区地球物理资料的对比,发现该区亚稳态橄榄石楔（Metastable Olivine Wedge,MOW）与深源地震的发生存在很好的相关性,由此推断东北深震的发生很可能是由橄榄石的相变引起的。     

Precipitation variability and its relationship to hydrologic variability in Alberta

By applying wavelet‐based empirical orthogonal function (WEOF) analysis to gridded precipitation (P) and empirical orthogonal function (EOF) analysis to gridded air temperature (T), potential evapotranspiration (PET), net precipitation (P‐PET) and runoff (Q), this paper examines the spatial, temporal and frequency patterns of Alberta's climate variability. It was found that only WEOF‐based precipitation patterns, possibly modulated by El Nino Southern Oscillation (ENSO) and Pacific Decadal Oscillation(PDO), delineated Alberta into four major regions which geographically represent northern Alberta Boreal forests, southern Alberta grasslands and Aspen Parklands and the Rocky Mountains and Foothills. The leading mode of wavelet‐based precipitation variability WPC1 showed that between 1900 and 2000, a wet climate dominated northern Alberta with significant 4–8, 11 and 25‐year periodic cycles, while the second mode WPC2 showed that between 1960 and 2000, southern Alberta grasslands were characterized by decreasing precipitation, dominated by 11‐year cycles, and the last two modes WPC3 and WPC4 were characterized by 4–7 and 25‐year cycles and both delineated regions where moisture from the Pacific Ocean penetrated the Rocky Mountains, accounted for much of the sub‐alpine climate. These results show that WEOF is superior to EOF in delineating Alberta precipitation variability to sub‐regions that more closely agree with its eco‐climate regions. Further, it was found that while WPC2 could not explain runoff variations in southern Alberta, WPC1, WPC3 and WPC4 accounted for runoff variability in their respective sub‐regions.

Crustal Deformation Background Simulation of the Kekexili M_S8.1 Earthquake Happening in 2001

Using the GPS velocity data from 27 stations around the Eastern Kunlun fault as constraints,we first invert the slip velocities of the Eastern Kunlun fault,the north boundary fault of the Qaidam basin,the Mani-Yushu fault and the Margai Caka fault before the Kekexili MS8.1 earthquake with a 3-D elastic half-space dislocation model. The deformation field calculated from the slip movement of these faults can be considered the deformation background field of the earthquake. Based on the deformation background field with tectonic implications,we have obtained the strain field and earthquake moment accumulation field. The results show that there are two obvious high moment accumulation rate regions,one of which is the Dongdatan-Xidatan segment of the Eastern Kunlun fault where the M_S8.1 earthquake occurred in 2001.     

The spatial and temporal distribution of heavy metals in sediments of Victoria Harbour, Hong Kong

Victoria Harbour has received substantial loadings of pollutants from industrial and municipal wastewater discharged since the 1950s. Inputs of contaminants have declined dramatically during the last two decades as a result of better controls at the source and improved wastewater treatment facilities. To assess the spatial and temporal changes of metal contaminants in sediments in Victoria Harbour, core and grab sediments were collected. The central harbour areas were generally contaminated with heavy metals. The spatial distribution of trace metals can probably be attributed to the proximity of major urban and industrial discharge points, and to the effect of tidal flushing in the harbour. In the sediment cores, the highest concentrations of trace metals were observed to have accumulated during the 1950s-1980s, corresponding with the period of rapid urban and industrial development in Hong Kong. From the late 1980s, there has been a major decline in the concentrations of trace metals, due to a reduction in industrial activities and to the enactment of wastewater pollution controls in the territory. The Pb isotopic compositions of the sediments revealed the anthropogenic inputs of Pb to the harbour. The (206)Pb/(207)Pb ratios varied from 1.154 to 1.190, which were lower than those of background geological materials in Hong Kong ((206)Pb/(207)Pb: 1.201-1.279). The data also indicated that the Pb in the harbour sediments most likely originated from mixed sources, including the leaded gasoline used in the past and other anthropogenic sources.

青藏高原东北缘4个强震重点监视区库仑破裂应力的近百年变化和危险性分析

针对青藏高原东北缘地区前人基于多学科研究资料圈定的4个未来强震重点监视区,构建了顾及到中下地壳黏弹性弛豫效应的区域岩石圈模型;考虑1920-2010年期间发生在本区域及其周边的18次Ｍ_s≥７级强震在这一区域的黏弹性静态库仑破裂应力变化,和长期构造背景加载下的应力积累情况,定量分析了每个重点监视区近百年来的库仑破裂应力变化,并在此基础上初步分析了各重点监视区的未来发震危险性程度。结果表明：西秦岭断裂带监视区和六盘山断裂带监视区均处于长期构造背景场和历史地震影响共同加载应力的状况;而海原断裂带监视区和东昆仑断裂带监视区,如果不考虑长期构造背景的应力加载,则处于地震影响的卸载状况。考虑到这4个重点监视区的大震平均复发周期及上次大震事件的离逝时间,认为西秦岭断裂带监视区的未来强震危险性程度最高,海原断裂带次之,然后是东昆仑断裂带和六盘山断裂带。
