Evidence for the evolution of an oxygen minimum layer at the beginning of S-1 sapropel deposition in the eastern Mediterranean

The sediments of the eastern Mediterranean basin contain a series of organic-rich sapropels intercalated with organic-poor nannofossil oozes. Until recently the timing of the onset of sapropel formation was not known accurately because of the low resolution achievable by conventional radiocarbon dating. Compilation of all available ¹⁴C-AMS dates show that the base of S-1 (the most recent sapropel) was initiated 8800 years B.P. (¹⁴C age corrected by 400 years for reservoir effect) under a 500 m water column and moved progressively into deeper water reaching depths of 3500 m at 8200 years B.P. The linear correlation between the age of S-1 onset and water depth

suggests that formation of sapropels moved into deeper water at a rate of 1000 m/200 year. A model is suggested in which export production which sank below the well-mixed surface layers (500 m) was respired consuming dissolved oxygen in the Levantine deep water until a threshold value was reached when sapropels began to be preserved in the sediment. This resulted in a progressively deepening oxygen minimum zone with time until eventually the entire deep water in the basin was oxygen depleted. Assuming that the threshold value for sapropel formation was complete anoxia, it was calculated that primary productivity in the basin during the deposition of S-1 was a factor of 5 greater than that found at present.     

用样条函数计算结果研究冲绳海槽热源机制

对冲绳海槽１９８４－１９９０年的实测热流值，利用数字滤波方法计算，得到反映该区深部地壳热状态的区域热流值为８０－１６０ｍＷ／ｍ＾２，用Ｂ样条函数法对其作数值模拟，计算出海槽地温场模式，并以此研究冲绳海槽海底高热流的形成机制，得出冲绳海槽热流值的区域性变化与綦中地质构造格局呈正相关，高热流是该区现代构造活动所致，其明显特征是地壳减薄，地幔上拱等结论。     

几种红藻和蓝藻的光合作用色素

分离纯化出几种海产红藻和一种蓝藻的光合作用色素,并测定了它们的化学性质和光谱学性质。这些藻类是3种红藻:多管藻(Polysiphonia urceolata)、橡叶藻(Phycodrys sp.)和条斑紫菜(Porphyra yezoensis);蓝藻:钝顶螺旋藻(Spirulina platensis)。用羟基磷灰石柱层析法从上述藻类中分离到几种不同的藻胆蛋白。经SDS-PAGE及光谱测定,发现条斑紫菜中的藻红蛋白不同于其它两种红藻。而橡叶藻中存在的两条藻红蛋白也有差异,条斑紫菜和钝顶螺旋藻中的两种别藻蓝蛋白之间也有区别。叶绿素分析表明,钝顶螺旋藻中叶绿素a的含量高于红藻中叶绿素a的含量。     

Influence of air-sea interaction on SSTA in different spacial scales

-In this paper, the factors for SSTA development in finite sea area of low latitudes are discussed with simpler linearized equations, According to the coupling conditions at the interface of atmosphere and ocean, we studied the horizontal scale relations of air-sea coupled system satisfying the dynamical and thermodynamical requirements, From the fluctuation viewpoint, the relation of horizontal scales and wave numbers are presented for a linear atmosphere-ocean coupled system with the same time scales. At last part of the paper, the state of fluctuations is examined for different sea scales under certain given atmospheric scale with a simpler two-layer coupled model, and some significant results obtained.     

不同光照条件下海带体内各种化合物的含量及光合作用和呼吸作用的变化

实验检测了不同光照条件1200，600，01x下，海带体内多酚类化合物、可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白、叶绿素a、类胡萝卜素等的含量及其光合作用和呼吸作用的变化。实验结果表明，随着光照强度的减弱，海带体内多酚类化合物、可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白等的含量及其光合作用和呼吸作用均呈现下降的趋势，而叶绿素a和类胡萝卜素的含量则呈现出上升的趋势。     

气候转型与早期人类迁徙

目前的旧石器考古证据表明，更新世早期可能发生了两次人类迁徙浪潮，时间分别在1.8-1.6MaBP和1.0MaBP左右，第一阶段，古人类演化为直立人并开始走出非洲、迁徙至其它中低纬度的热带－亚热带地区；第二阶段，直立人开始占据中高纬度的温带和干旱－半干旱地区。这两个阶段也是第四纪气候发生转型、环境产生重大调整的时期。二者在发生时间上的一致性揭示了它们之间的内在联系，推测气候转型时期环境转变是这两次人类迁徙浪潮的主要驱动力。

合浦珠母贝铁的穆斯堡尔谱学研究

应用^57Fe穆斯堡尔谱学的方法研究了四个不同生长期合浦珠母贝铁的化学状态和Fe^2 /Fe^3 的值，它们的Fe^2 和Fe^3 的相对含量分别为4.1%～29.4%和76.6%～95.9%,Fe^2 /Fe^3 值的变化为0.043～0.42。3个月龄的Fe^2 /Fe^3 值大于10个月龄，从10个月龄到22个月龄的Fe^2 /Fe^3 值呈增加的趋势，这可能反映了不同生长期合浦珠母贝对不同价态的铁的需求。
