大洋中脊热液活动与轴部岩浆房的分布、深度以及熔融程度之间的关系

热液活动,特别是高温流体释放,通常与轴部存在岩浆房（AMC）有关,然而这种关系尚未得到系统的验证。通过对6个区域性较长（长度在170—560km之间）的洋脊段进行连续的AMC以及热液羽流调查,就有可能定量比较热液活动的分布、强度与AMC范围、深度以及在部分站位岩浆熔融程度之间的关系。这六个区域性洋脊的扩张速率在55—145mm／a之间,共包含20个次级的洋脊段。在洋脊段尺度上（除去受到热点影响的加勒帕戈斯扩张中心）,热液羽流的发生率随着AMC的发生率（AMCr,r^2=0．64）增加而线性增加。对所研究的6个区域性洋脊段而言,热液羽流的发生率随着AMC的深度减小而增加（AMCZ,r^2=0．66）。在次级洋脊段尺度上,热液羽流的发生率与AMCr（r^2=0．12）以及AMCz（r^2=0．25）相关性很差。最后在亚段尺度上,或者在局部尺度上（0．75km长的区间内）,热液羽流的强度随着AMCz的变浅而增强（r^2=0．85）。羽流强度越强的区间也就越接近它们的海底来源,其中68±13％直接位于AMC之上。这种分布与现在已知的40个高温喷口场中至少有37个位于AMC之上的分布相似。现在的数据能够允许我们验证AMC与热液活动相互之间关系的假设。尽管现存的数据很少,不支持如下假设：熔融富集的岩浆透镜体优先发育强烈的、持续周期长的热液喷发。同时,在任何洋脊段也未能为如下提议找到证据：在段尺度上,热液冷却的增加可以在局部亚段上降低AMCz。在慢速洋脊,岩浆房存在的证据相当稀少,然而这些数据却与那些具有更快扩张速率洋脊的数据相一致。对所有扩张速率洋脊的观察结果表明,几乎所有的高温热液场均与岩浆或者推断的岩浆有关;而“热岩”或者非岩浆热源不足以引起高温热液喷发。     

Methodology for the diagnostics of soil polygenesis on the basis of macro- and micromorphological studies

A methodology for studying soil polygenesis and lithological homogeneity of soil profiles is suggested. This methodology is particularly important for mountain soils, where the lithological heterogeneity of the soil profiles created by denudation and accumulation processes is often observed. The methodology includes several stages： （a） the study of the lithological homogeneity/ heterogeneity of soil profiles by field and laboratory methods, （b） the stage-by-stage macro-, meso-, micro-, and submicromorphological analyses of soil profiles with additional use of the methods of neighboring sciences, and （e） the subdivision of soil features into the groups of recent and inherited （relict） features. In the latter group, the subgroups of lithorelict features inherited from the parent material and pedorelict features inherited from the previous stages of soil formation can be distinguished. Two major models of soil polygenesis are suggested. Simple models describe the soils, in which new features appear due to the changes in the environmental conditions in the course of soil evolution. Complex models describe the soils, in which such changes are combined with deposition of new portions of sediments onto the soil surface with the development of buried soil horizons （the synlithogenie pedogenesis）. The models of continuous and discontinuous synlithogenic pedogenesis can be further distinguished. It is argued that the micromorphological method applied to the studies on soil mierofabrics, microforms of soil humus, soil porosity, coatings, and various pedo- and lithorelict features yields valuable information on polygenetic soils.     

运用nrDNA ITS 数据研究角叉菜属(Chondrus)在红藻门中的系统进化地位

测定了角叉菜属(Chondrus)5个代表种的核糖体DNA内转录间隔区(ITS)及5.8SrDNA基因序列。结果表明,角叉菜属ITS区(含ITS1、5.8SrDNA和ITS2)序列长度范围为704—714bp,G+C含量为44.6%—45.7%,变异位点69个,信息位点16个;其中,ITS1和ITS2的长度范围分别为147—149bp和398—404bp。5.8SrDNA长度为158bp,没有变异和信息位点。由MEGA3构建的系统进化树(ME和MP)显示:在进化尺度上,真红藻纲的松节藻科(Rhodomelaceae)与红毛菜纲(Bangiophyceae)亲缘关系较近。在真红藻纲内,杉藻目(Gigartinales)的进化地位相对较高,其次是海膜科(Halymeniaceae)、石花菜科(Gelidiaceae)、红叶藻科(Delesseriaceae)和粉枝藻科(Liagoraceae)等,而松节藻科进化地位相对较低。在杉藻目内,杉藻科(Gigartinaceae)和胶黏藻科(Dumontiaceae)进化关系密切,而形态学特征相似的角叉菜和马泽藻(Mazzaella)亲缘关系非常近。     

Simulation Study on High Energy Cosmic Electron Detection by Shower Image

Many projects have recently been carried out and proposed for observing high energy electrons since it is realized that cosmic ray electrons are very important when study-ing the dark matter particles and the acceleration mechanism of cosmic rays. An imaging calorimeter,BETS (Balloon-borne Electron Telescope with Scintillator fiber),has been de-veloped for this purpose. Using pattern analysis of the shower development,the electrons can be selected from those primary cosmic ray proton events with flux heights one-tenth that of the electrons. The Monte-Carlo simulation is indispensable for the instrument design,the sig-nal trigger and the data analysis. We present different shower simulation codes and compare the simulation results with the beam test and the flight data of BETS. We conclude that the code FLUKA2002 gives the most consistent results with the experimental data.

昆士兰芒特艾萨同构造期铜矿化的发育和定位的构造控制

引言澳大利亚东北部芒特艾萨的铜和银-铅-锌矿体,在沉积岩容矿的块状硫化物矿床中占据着特殊位置,它们都产在相同的建造(乌尔库哈特页岩)中,但它们之间有一定空间间隔,具有不同的容矿岩的特征。铅-锌矿体呈雁行排列在白云质页岩中,由层状方铅矿和闪锌矿层组成、Neudert(1983、84)根据沉积学分析认为,方铅矿和闪锌矿是在沉积地层中定位的,而不是沉积在沉积物-水界面上。为确定与变形历史有关的银-铅-锌矿体矿化时间,尚需进行详
