Early Paleozoic Magmatism and Crustal Evolution in the North Qinling Orogen

<正>1 Introduction The North Qinling orogenic belt is characterized by diverse rocks,multi-phase tectonic-magmatic events,which is composed of not only basement rocks of the Qinling Group,but also numerous magmatic rocks in     

Advances of Soil Microbiology in the Last Decade in China

Soils are fundamental to preservation and sustainability of life-support system on Earth. Soils develop as the most dynamic and complex interface linking atmosphere, hydrosphere, lithosphere and biosphere. Soils harbor enormous diversities of microbial communities as the primary driving forces for global exchanges of matter and energy on our planet. Despite of its profound importance, the invisible soil microbes have for long been underappreciated. In the early 2000s, there has been growing awareness that soil microbiology has attracted huge interest from nonsoil scientists due to the introduction of three domain phylogeny. It is also known as tree of life theory which is widely recognized as the most accurate reflection of the relatedness of all organisms and provides us with a tool to classify and elucidate the largely untapped resource of soil microbial communities. In January 2005, the Department of Earth Sciences of National Natural Science Foundation of China organized a workshop of ‘Soil Biology and Soil Processes’ with focused discussion on soil microbiology research frontiers. The workshop outlined research priorities, cross disciplinary research opportunities, technological needs and potential breakthroughs within soil microbiology. This workshop has witnessed the rapid advances of soil microbiology in soil nutrient transformation, global environmental changes and environmental remediation over the last decade in China. This article will give a brief review on soil microbial researches in the past decade in China, present the status quo of funding system and highlight the challenge and opportunities for future soil microbiology in China.     

Anomalous Signals Prior to Wenchuan Earthquake Detected by Superconducting Gravimeter and Broadband Seismometers Records

Using 1 Hz sampling records at one superconducting gravimeter(SG) station and 11 broadband seismometer stations,we found anomalous signals prior to the 2008 Wenchuan(汶川) earthquake event.The tides are removed from the original SG records to obtain the gravity residuals.Applying the Hilbert-Huang transform(HHT) and the wavelet analysis to the SG gravity residuals leads to time-frequency spectra,which suggests that there is an anomalous signal series around 39 h prior to the event.The period and the magnitude...

埋藏岩溶洞穴垮塌深度定量图版及其在碳酸盐岩缝洞型储层地质评价预测中的意义

通过对岩溶洞穴垮塌的岩石力学原理及塔里木盆地奥陶系实钻资料的分析,基本明确了洞穴埋藏垮塌的控制因素是岩石抗弯强度、洞穴尺度、洞穴距风化暴露面的距离等,并得到了洞穴垮塌深度的定量图版。该图版对于钻前预测现今埋藏于地下的碳酸盐岩洞穴是否已经垮塌、洞穴埋藏演化史精确恢复以及对裂缝—洞穴型储层的评价预测具有较强的实践意义。     

新疆西天山智博铁矿岩浆-热液成矿作用—来自安山岩矿物学的证据

本文以智博铁矿区内的安山岩为研究对象,通过详细的野外地质调查,并利用电子显微镜和电子探针,对安山岩中的主要矿物进行了系统的岩相学观察和矿物学研究。研究表明,智博安山岩中斜长石主要为Na-高钠长石,具低TiO2,高Na2O和Al2O3的特点;辉石主要为普通辉石,具高TiO2,高Al2O3的特点;角闪石主要为镁角闪石和阳起石,具低TiO2和Al2O3,高MgO的特点;副矿物磁铁矿具高TiO2,低MgO和Al2O3的特点。辉石、角闪石矿物化学特征表明,智博铁矿安山岩的母岩浆属于壳幔混源的玄武质岩浆,构造环境为火山岛弧环境。智博安山岩中单斜辉石结晶温度为1225℃左右,结晶压力约0.795GPa,结晶深度约26km。智博铁矿后期的热液作用也参与了磁铁矿成矿,对智博铁矿的成矿有一定的贡献。     

Structural Styles of the Longmenshan Thrust Belt and Evolution of the Foreland Basin in Western Sichuan Province, China

The Longmenshan thrust system consists of two major groups of structural styles according to the depth of their involvement: basement thrusts-compressional fault blocks; fold-thrust system in the cover. In cross-section, the Longmenshan structural belt is divided into 5 zones. The propagation of the Longmenshan thrust system is piggy-back due to pushing at the early stage and overstep due to gravity sliding at the late stage. Balanced cross-sections and palinspastic reconstruction reveal that the total sliding displacement of the thrust system amounts to 120 km. The tectonic evolution of the Tethys domain in western Sichuan has experienced 5 stages: continental break-up; ocean-continent subduction ; continent-arc collision; orogenic thrusting; uplift of western Sichuan.
