塔里木盆地巴楚隆起古董山断裂带构造分析

古董山断裂构造带位于塔里木盆地西部的巴楚隆起上,走向北西-南东,延伸140 km左右。基于地震剖面的详细解释,识别出4期构造变形：寒武-奥陶纪正断层、二叠纪正断层、中新世冲断层、上新世-更新世冲断层及其伴生的正断层。中新世基底卷入型冲断层是古董山构造带的主控断裂构造,构成断裂带的主体,构造变形样式为断层传播褶皱。寒武-奥陶纪正断层形成复式地垒,隐伏于中新世主干断层之下。二叠纪正断层可能伴生有岩浆活动。先存的正断层和岩浆岩对古董山中新世断裂活动具有明显的控制作用;后期的断裂活动,即上新世-更新世逆冲断层和正断层,对中新世形成的断裂构造有改造作用。古董山断裂带东南端与玛扎塔格构造带西端交汇,但两者不是同一条断裂带。     

甘肃武都万象洞石笋双重光性微层特征

自1993年Baker等利用高精度TIM S-U系法对Tartair洞一根全新世石笋的发光条带进行年代测定,并通过计数证明其为年生长层之后,石笋微层以其明确的年代学意义和气候环境变化指示意义,逐渐被成功地应用于古气候的定量重建;1995年在北京石花洞国内首次发现石笋微层后,我国学者也开始逐渐关注石笋微层气候学,并对其进行了全面和系统的研究.我国已观测到的石笋微生长层大致可分为"北方型"和"南方型"两种,其中"北方型',微层主要分布在东部地区,在北京石花洞、银狐洞、本溪水洞、南京葫芦洞、山东开元洞等地均已发现,但在我国西部地区尚未见石笋微生长层的报道.最近,笔者在2007年3月采自中国西部青藏高原和黄土高原过渡带万象洞(33019'N,105000'E;海拔1200m)中的一根石笋中发现了典型的"北方型"微生长层.     

K-Ar法年龄标准物质ZGC粗面岩K和~(40)Ar含量及年龄的定值结果

为了满足K-Ar和Ar-Ar法定年的需要,年代学工作者研制了一个用于中新生代定年的K-Ar法年龄标准物质——ZGC粗面岩。该粗面岩采自广东省南海市走马营第三纪火山岩。~(40)Ar/~(39)Ar定年结果表明,~(40)Ar~*在矿物晶格中保存均匀稳定,年龄谱平坦,~(39)Ar析出量高达97.9%。证明该粗面岩结晶以后未受过热扰动,完好地保持了~(40)K-~(40)Ar~*同位素计时的化学封闭体系。坪年龄为52.8±0.3 Ma,总气体年龄为52.9±0.8 Ma。~(36)Ar/~(40)Ar-~(39)Ar/~(40)Ar反等时线年龄为52.5±0.4 Ma,~(40)Ar/~(36)Ar初始值为296.6±4.2,此值与(~(40)Ar/~(36)Ar)。大气氩丰度比(295.5±0.5)一致,表明样品不含过剩氩。国内12个实验室参加了ZGC粗面岩K含量和~(40)Ar~*含量的定值分析。经统计学方法检验,结果显示全部定值数据服从正态分布并具等精度。当置信概率为0.95时,~(40)Ar~*和K含量的相对标准偏差都小于1%。~(40)Ar~*和K含量分析的认定值和不确定度分别为:~(40)Ar~*=4.199±0.022×10~(-10)mol/g,K=4.576±0.028%,由此计算得K-Ar年龄为52.2±0.5 Ma。根据国家一级标准物质技术规范的相关要求,经统计学方法检验在0.05显著性水平下,K和~(40)Ar~*的F分布小于F临界值,说明该标准物质是均匀的。t检验法表明,该标准物质具有良好的稳定性,~(40)Ar~*和K含量在有效期内不会发生显著性变化。ZGC粗面岩粒度为0.3～0.7mm,重量为850 g,缩分成最小样品单元100瓶,每瓶8.5 g。可供K-Ar和Ar-Ar法实验室使用43年。     

Competitive adsorption of strontium and fulvic acid at the muscovite-solution interface observed with resonant anomalous X-ray reflectivity

Molecular-scale distributions of Sr²⁺ and fulvic acid (FA) adsorbed on the muscovite (0 0 1) surface were investigated using in situ specular X-ray reflectivity (XR) and resonant anomalous X-ray reflectivity (RAXR). The total amount of Sr²⁺ adsorbed from a 1 × 10⁻² mol/kg SrCl₂ and 100 mg/kg Elliott Soil Fulvic Acid II (ESFA II) solution at pH 5.5 compensated 81 ± 5% of the muscovite surface charge, less than previously measured (118 ± 5%) in an ESFA II-free solution with the same Sr concentration and pH. Inner-sphere (IS) and outer-sphere (OS) Sr²⁺ constituted 87% of the total adsorbed species in IS:OS proportions of 19:81 compared to 42:58 in the solution without FA, suggesting that adsorbed FA competes with the IS Sr²⁺ for surface sites. The coverage of both IS and OS Sr²⁺ decreased even more in a pH 3.5 solution containing the same concentration of FA and 0.5 × 10⁻² mol/kg Sr(NO₃)₂, whereas a significant amount of Sr²⁺ accumulated farther from the surface in the FA layer. The amount of Sr²⁺ incorporated in the ∼10 Å thick FA layer decreased by 79% with decreasing FA concentration (100 → 1 mg/kg) and increasing Sr²⁺ concentration (0.5 × 10⁻² → 1 × 10⁻² mol/kg) and pH (3.5 → 3.6). These results indicate not only that adsorbed FA molecules (and perhaps also H₃O⁺) displace Sr²⁺ near the muscovite surface, but also that the sorbed FA film provides binding sites for additional Sr²⁺ away from the surface. When a muscovite crystal pre-coated with FA after reaction in a 100 mg/kg ESFA II solution for 50 h was subsequently reacted with a 0.5 × 10⁻² mol/kg Sr(NO₃)₂ and 100 mg/kg ESFA II solution at pH 3.7, a significant fraction of Sr²⁺ was distributed in the outer part of the FA film similar to that observed on fresh muscovite reacted at pH 3.5 with a pre-mixed Sr-FA solution at the same concentrations. However, this Sr²⁺ sorbed in the pre-adsorbed organic film was more widely distributed and had a lower coverage, suggesting that pre-sorbed FA may undergo fractionation and/or conformational changes that diminish its capacity, and that of the muscovite (0 0 1) surface, for adsorbing the aqueous Sr cation.

Wavelet entropy-based investigation into the daily precipitation variability in the Yangtze River Delta, China, with rapid urbanizations

In this paper, the daily precipitation data measured at 58 meteorological stations were used, and the spatial and temporal variability of daily precipitation and precipitation extrema in the Yangtze River Delta (YRD) during 1958–2007 was investigated using the indicator of discrete wavelet entropy; then, the urbanization effects were further analyzed. Results indicate that the daily precipitation variability in YRD, especially in the mid YRD with highly urbanized city clusters, is determined by the comprehensive impacts of atmospheric circulation, urbanizations, and the Taihu Lake. Compared with the results in 1958–1985, the variability of daily precipitation and precipitation extrema becomes more complex in 1986–2007, and daily precipitation variability is more complex in the mid YRD relative to the north and south. The precipitation extrema with bigger magnitudes show more complex variability. Urbanizations cause more complexity and fluctuations of daily precipitation in the mid YRD in 1986–2007, reflecting more uncertainty of daily precipitation variability, while the urbanization effects vary with regions and precipitation magnitudes. The variability of precipitation extrema with maximum values is mainly determined by natural atmospheric circulation but has little relationship with urbanizations; however, the variability of those precipitation extrema with general values is determined by both urbanizations and the Taihu Lake in YRD over the last three decades.     

Biofilm: A crucial factor affecting the settlement of seaweed on intertidal rocky surfaces

We hypothesized that the presence of biofilm accelerated the settlement of dominant seaweed species and maintained high levels of species richness by regulating the blooming of particular species on an intertidal rocky shore. The coverage and species richness of macroalgae on sterile and cleared substrates (225 cm²) were measured to investigate the effects of biofilm on the settlement of macroalgae in intertidal zones at Noryang, Songmoon, and Sangnam in Gawngyang Bay on the southern coast of the Korean peninsula. Green algae coverage on cleared substrates was significantly higher than that on sterile substrates at both Noryang and Songmoon during the study period. This suggests that the presence of biofilm enhances the settlement of green algae by providing various habitat structures and, consequently, may lead to serious ‘green tide’ events. However, the coverage of algae other than green algae and algal species richness on cleared substrates remained high at Sangnam during the experimental period. Biofilm facilitated the settlement of macroalgae and inhibited the blooming of specific algae by inducing inter-specific space competition. Therefore, biofilm plays an important role on seaweed assemblages on intertidal rocky shores by accelerating the settlement of seaweed.     

Mechanisms and Processes Leading to Reverse Zoning in the Andong Granitoid Pluton, Andong Batholith, Korea

The Andong pluton consists of comagmatic granitoid rocks which constitute outstanding examples of reversely zoned granitoids. The pluton has three lithofacies: hornblende biotite tonalite, biotite granodiorite and porphyritic biotite granite. The zoned pattern forms by locating a tonalite core containing high-temperature mafic assemblages in central part,granodiorite rims in marginal part, and a porphyritic granite cap containing more felsic assemblages in topside of the pluton.Mineral abundances as well as bulk compositions of the granitoids indicate that the interior is enriched in mafic minerals and that it shows higher contents of oxides than the margin and topside. The compositional gradients change gradually with continuity between the lithofacies. The regular compositional variations within the pluton support the argument that the pluton behaved as an individual petrochemical system. Model abundances of the granitoids are in agreement with the bulk compositional gradients, suggesting that no significant interaction with country rocks occurred. Remobilization (resurgence) of deeper parts of the system into the more felsic magmas of the chamber explains the reverse zoning. Fractional crystallization was of importance and probably accounts for the selective removal of the settling phases. The Andong pluton is an example of reversely zoned plutons related by remobilization of more mafic but consanguineous magmas. Large-scale upwelling occurred in the pluton leading to the present arrangement of three lithofacies. It is conceivable that remnants of the reverse zoning become more difficult to discern as the plutonic rocks reach the latest stages of their evolution. In this case, the Andong pluton represents an earlier stage in the evolution of a felsic system that is usually represented by the final stages in normally zoned plutons.     

Numerical Simulation of Roll Vortices in the Convective Boundary Layer

Roll vortices,which often appear when cold air outbreaks over warm ocean surfaces,are an important system for energy and substance exchange between the land surface and atmosphere.Numerical simulations were carried out in the study to simulate roll vortices in the convective boundary layer(CBL).The results indicate,that with proper atmospheric conditions,such as thermal instability in the CBL,stable stratification in the overlying layer and suitable wind shear,and a temperature jump between the two layers in a two-layer atmosphere,convective bands appear after adding initial pulses in the atmosphere.The simulated flow and temperature fields presented convective bands in the horizontal and roll vortices in the crosswind section. The structure of the roll vortices were similar to those observed in the cloud streets,as well as those from analytical solutions.Simulations also showed the influence of depth and instability strength of the CBL, as well as the stratification above the top of the CBL,on the orientation spacing and strength of the roll vortices.The fluxes caused by the convective rolls were also investigated,and should perhaps be taken into account when explaining the surface energy closure gap in the CBL.
