Hydrocarbons generated by hydropyrolysis of suspended marine particulate organic matter: Relationship to the oceanography of the Black Sea and the Rhodes Gyre

The suspended particulate organic matter, SPOM, in the autumnal Black Sea has been characterised using catalytic hydropyrolysis (HyPy) of the total (bound plus free) lipid material. The technique, which generates maximum yields of volatile products from sediments, kerogens and phytoplankton, was followed using gas chromatography and gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. The generated alkanes were dominated by n-C₁₈, hypothesised to arise predominantly from unsaturated C₁₈ fatty acids. Steranes were generated from reductive conversion of free and bound sterols. The generation of branched alkanes and especially of hopanes provided formal evidence for the participation of bacteria in the mineralisation of the SPOM. Whereas similar distributions of n-alkanes were generated from SPOM sampled from different depths of the comparatively well-stirred Rhodes Gyre (eastern Mediterranean), mineralisation of the SPOM at each depth of the central Black Sea produced characteristic changes in the composition and concentration of the HyPy products. Depth profiles of the n-alkanes generated from SPOM in the region of the Rim Current were affected by the local hydrography. Polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) of anthropogenic origin were present in the surface waters of the central Black Sea. Some methyl benzenes, thiophenes and pyrroles were also generated.     

Reworking Intensity—A Key Factor Leading to the Formation of Superlarge Gold Deposits in Greenstone Belts and Metamorphosed Microclastic Rocks in China

The greenstone belt and metamorphosed microclastic rock-type superlarge gold deposits in China are hosted in metamorphic rocks and later intrusive bodies.Sedimentation.regional metamorphism and mineralization contributed a lot to the formation of the deposits,so did remelting magmatic process to some deposits,but the deposits were finally formed by reworking processes.The key factor leading to the formation of superlarge gold deposits is the reworking intensity,which for superlarge gold deposits is reflected by the large-scale reworked source rocks and even ore materials of various sources,strongly oxidized ore-forming fluids with a long and repeated active history and stable geothermal heat current.The factor which decides the reworking intensity is the network consisting of structures of different classes.     

广东长坑银金矿区地层研究的新发现及意义

广东长坑银金矿区的地层,原认为由下石炭统及土三叠统组成,两者呈断层接触。近来,在原这为相门桥组的硅质岩中发现了晚二叠世放射虫化石;在小坪组所夹的在 中发现有早石炭世有孔虫化石;在某些地段还发现“梓门桥组”硅质岩与“小坪组”整合接触。据此认为矿区内可能有中石炭世至中三叠世地层存在。目前对上述新发现的解释均不够圆满,因此对长坑矿区的地层学在必要深入研究,无论研究结论如何,都将对矿区的地层划分、地质构造     

宾川地区的地壳厚度和泊松比分布特征研究

This paper presents the changes of crust thickness and Poissons ratios distribution in the Binchuan region,where the first air-gun transmitting station and its a small dense array were deployed.From September 2011 to January 2014,more than 239 teleseismic events of M≥6.0 were recorded in 16 stations in the Binchuan region.Their P-wave receiver functions were analyzed respectively.The high spatial resolution result shows that the average crust thickness of Binchuan region is 45.3km,it follows the rule of"deeper in the north and east part,shallower in the south and west part."The deepest region is in Xiaoyindian Station;the crust thickness is 47.9km;the shallowest region is in Paiying Station,it has the thickness of 42.1km.It shows that the deeper Moho surface nearby the Chenghai fault and shallower nearby the Honghe fault;the isoline distribution of thickness changes greatly nearby the Chenghai fault and slowly nearby the Honghe fault.From the distribution of Poissons ratios,it is unevenly in the study area with a great difference from the north part to the south part,which shows a characteristic of"lower in the north,higher in the south".The Poissons ratio nearby the Honghe fault is medium too high(0.26≤σ≤0.29);lower nearby the Chenghai fault(σ≤0.26).This paper concludes the possible reason of different characteristic between Poissons ratio and crust thickness is thicker in the upper crust in the Binchuan region.

鉴于当前遥感图像矢量化效率普遍不高,提出了一种遥感聚合图像的快速拓扑矢量化方法。该方法对聚合图像中的聚合对象进行唯一性标号,并将这个标号作为属性赋予生成的矢量多边形,通过矢量多边形的标号间映射关系便可以快速建立复杂岛屿多边形的拓扑包含关系。试验表明,该方法能够精确地完成斑块对象边界追踪及复杂岛屿多边形处理,并显著提高矢量化的速度。     

Spatial Access to Health Care Services and Disparities in Colorectal Cancer Stage at Diagnosis in Texas

Early diagnosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) is important for improving the survival rate of the disease. Disparities in CRC diagnosis among different population groups have persisted in the United States. This study examines whether spatial access to medical services contributes to disparities of late-stage diagnosis of CRC in Texas. Analysis results suggest that there are significant disparities in late-stage CRC diagnosis by race/ethnicity, socioeconomic status, and geographic location in Texas. It is concluded that spatial access to primary care is associated with CRC stage at diagnosis, but not with racial/ethnic and socioeconomic disparities.     

Paleosol geochemistry of the late Paleocene Goler Formation of Southern California

Paleosol (fossilized soil) geochemistry can provide a record of paleoclimatic conditions due to the relationships between pedogenic processes and climate. In this study, paleosols from the late Paleocene Goler Formation of Southern California were used to determine the paleoclimatic conditions active during pedogenesis. The enrichment and retention of soluble elements (Ca, Mg and Na) and the mobilization of Fe and Mn within the paleosol profiles suggest a climate with strongly seasonal precipitation. Similarly, variations in the Mn content and δ¹³C ratio of pedogenic carbonate nodules also reflect seasonal precipitation. Regional paleotopography was likely an important control on the paleoclimate of the Goler Formation due to rain shadow effects. Although the size and location of these ancient mountains are poorly constrained, the identification of climatic effects specifically associated with these variables provides new constraints.

积云团对大气层结影响的模拟研究

文中设计了一个二维完全弹性的积云团数值模式 .模式中考虑了水平均一和时间定常的大尺度抬升速度的影响 .大度抬升速度只对热力学方程和水汽守恒方程有影响 .积云团的启动方式采用冷池和随机扰动相结合的方法 .文中对一个给定温湿层结和大尺度抬升速度情况下 ,就不同扰动结构、水平环境切变、模式区域大小和冷池强度等进行了 1 1个模拟试验 .结果表明 ,在不同扰动结构、是否有水平环境风切变、模式区域不同以及不同云型谱时 ,给定温湿层结和大尺度抬升速度下的积云团活动使得温湿层结向着同一温湿层结调整 .这说明大气由于积云团活动达到准平衡状态 ,这个准平衡状态主要依赖于初始温湿层结和大尺度抬升速度 .这与 Betts积云参数化方案的假设相一致 .
