青藏高原东北部沉积物磁倾角浅化之成因探究

磁倾角是古纬度的记录者,对许多构造活动有着很好的揭示作用.但在青藏高原,沉积物的磁倾角往往要比火山岩或欧亚极预测的值要小,这很大程度上制约了对该地区构造演化历史的了解.本文应用E/I统计分析法对青藏高原东北部几个典型山间盆地的已有古地磁数据进行分析,发现该地区沉积物中普遍存在的10°～ 20°磁倾角浅化可以通过该法矫正,揭示出该地区的磁倾角浅化可能是由于沉积物在沉积过程中或沉积后的压实作用造成;同时也表明该地区在晚新生代以来南北向缩短量并不是十分显著,至少是在古地磁研究的误差范围以内.     

Magneteostratigraphy of Yumen Conglomerate in the Yumushan Region and Its Implication for Deformation and Uplift of the NE Tibetan Plateau

青藏高原新生代变形隆升过程是青藏高原新生代构造演化研究的热点问题,地处于高原东北部祁连山东北缘的榆木山是研究高原变形隆升时空过程的关键研究区之一.榆木山地区发育了一套粗砾相磨拉石——玉门砾岩,磁性地层研究表明其底部地质年代约为3.58 Ma.经古水流、磁化率、野外考察等推断玉门砾岩可能主要为构造隆升的产物,同时在榆木山地区还发育3个与玉门砾岩有关的不整合面,其跨越年龄分别约为:5.23～3.58Ma、2.88～2.58 Ma和＜1.77～0.8 Ma.综合分析认为该地区变形隆升不晚于3.58 Ma,之后至少经历两期构造变形隆升,该结果比北东向分步生长变形隆升模式推测的变形隆升时间明显早约1Ma,应该是对高原东北部青藏-昆黄运动的响应结果.     

重庆地区夏季一次降水过程及增雨潜力的数值模拟分析

利用国家气象中心GRAPES人工增雨云系模式,选取2008年7月4日重庆地区一次降水过程进行数值模拟,分析了重庆地区降雨天气的水汽分布、云系宏微观分布、云中微物理转化和增雨潜力等特征。结果表明：本次降水大气过程中,重庆地区水汽含量极为丰富,水汽分布与地形分布呈明显的对应关系,低层水汽输送较大,整层水汽通量较高,有明显水汽辐合,云中液态水对地面降水影响很大。西南气流和地形共同作用为重庆地区液态水的形成提供了有利条件,在东北部山区迎风坡处大量水汽累积抬升,易形成丰富的液态水。重庆东北部地区水汽向云水转化较强,过冷液态水含量丰富,冰晶含量少,0℃层附近水汽垂直通量较大,降水效率较低,有较大的增雨潜力。     

n-Alkan-2-one distributions in a northeastern China peat core spanning the last 16 kyr

Most research on long chain methyl ketones has focused on their origins and distributions. Their application in paleoclimate studies is less common than that of other n-alkyl lipids. The goal of this research was to explore this potential by studying n-alkan-2-ones from the Hani peat sequence in northeastern China. They were identified using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and showed a distribution ranging from C₁₉ to C₃₁ with a strong odd/even predominance. This type of distribution is considered to derive from Sphagum and microbial oxidation of n-alkanes. Comparison with climate sensitive indicators and macrofossil analysis shows that microbial oxidation of n-alkanes derived from higher plants was enhanced during the warm early Holocene period. This led us to develop three n-alkan-2-one proxies - C₂₇/ΣC_23-31 (C₂₇/HMW-KET), carbon preference index (CPI_H-KET) and average chain length (ACL_(27-31)-KET) - as possible indicators of paleoclimate in the peat-forming environment. These proxies, in combination with C₂₇n-alkane δD values and peat cellulose δ¹⁸O records, might allow examination of paleo-ecosystem behavior during climatic evolution in northeastern China over the past 16,000 yr.

GDAS数据和NOAH陆面模式在中国应用的精度检验

GDAS数据集中的大气强迫数据是目前使用最广的用于陆面模式模拟地表水热参数的输入数据集,除模型本身外,可以说这些输入数据决定了模型的模拟精度。虽然这类数据具有空间分辨率低、空间代表性和精度有限的缺点,但在没有更好办法的现实条件下,现阶段多数研究者还是以此为依据进行陆面过程的模拟分析。本文的目的就是对目前普遍使用的GDAS强迫数据和NOAH陆面模式在中国应用的模拟精度进行检验,是模型和数据不做任何改动条件下的检验结果,给出客观的评价,以作为数据和模型使用者的参考依据,引起研究者的重视。利用中国3种典型生态系统的地面实测数据进行检验的结果显示：@GDAS强迫数据中的短波净辐射数据和总净辐射数据质量非常好,可以作为重要的辐射数据源使用;（2）GDAS的降雨数据与地面雨量筒实测数据比较误差较大,但综合考虑降雨数据验证时的尺度效应问题和目前降雨空间数据资源十分有限,GDAS的降雨数据仍具有很高的实用价值;（3）NOAH模拟的地表潜热、显热通量和0-10cm表层土壤含水量数据在时间变化趋势上与地面观测结果较一致,说明模拟结果能够很好地反映地表真实的变化过程,但在具体量值上仍存在较大差异;（4）NOAH模拟对土壤热通量的模拟精度较差。     

The <Emphasis Type="Italic">n</Emphasis>-alkanol paleoclimate records in two peat deposits: a comparative study of the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and Northeast China

A number of studies have revealed that the climate in the eastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and Northeast China is sensitive to postglacial changes. Unfortunately, the link of the past climate evolution between the two regions is not well understood. In this study, two cores are analyzed to determine this link directly. The high-resolution n-alkanol distribution patterns from two typical peat sequences covering the past 16,000 cal years in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and Northeast China, respectively, are closely examined by gas chromatograph–mass spectrometry analysis. In combination with other palaeoclimatic proxies, it is proposed that the n-alkanol average chain length and (C₂₂ + C₂₄)/(C₂₆ + C₂₈) ratio could reflect past climate changes in the two peat sequences. The n-alkanol proxies reveal several climatic intervals in the period from the last deglaciation through the Holocene. A comparison of n-alkanol records between the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau and Northeast China indicates that the start and end of the warm Holocene Optimum differed at the two locations. The spatially asynchronous pattern of climatic change is possibly a result of different responses to change in solar radiation. The evolution of the Holocene paleoclimate is more consistent with changes in Northern Hemisphere solar radiation in Northeast China than on the Tibetan Plateau. The Holocene Optimum began and terminated earlier in Northeast China than in the northeastern margin of the Tibetan Plateau. Thus, the two n-alkanol proxies provide valuable insights into the regional Holocene climate and local environmental conditions.     

贵州遵义寒武系底部硅质岩中细菌状化石的发现

通过扫描电镜精细观测,在贵州遵义松林地区早寒武世黑色岩系剖面,于其底部的硅质页岩中发现了可能的细菌状化石,直径200～500 nm,形态不一,具有细菌的大小和形状,有机碳含量丰富,大部分细菌含磷.通过与已有报道中具相似形态生物体的对比,认为其可能是原生的、具有细菌生物结构的微生物小球体(Microbioids),本文称之为细菌状化石.这类细菌状化石可以赋存于石英颗粒表面、石英颗粒间,甚至嵌入石英颗粒中.据前人的模拟实验推测,细菌在石英颗粒沉淀过程中可能起到过重要促进作用,这从微观上为硅质岩的形成提供了新信息.     

Short-time response in growth and sediment properties of Zizania latifolia to water depth

Field experiments were conducted to study the short-time response in growth and sediment properties of Zizania latifolia to four levels of water depth: 10, 50, 90, and 130 cm. The results showed that Z. latifolia was sensitive to high water depth stress in terms of the significantly decreased basal stem diameter, leaf width, root length, total biomass, and root to shoot ratio with increasing water depth. It was found suitable to grow in shallow water less than 50 cm in depth. The growth of Z. latifolia significantly increased sediment moisture content and porosity, while reduced wet bulk density in sediment and NH₄–N concentration in interstitial water. Along the water depth gradient, the growth of Z. latifolia significantly impacted sediment wet bulk weight and loss on ignition, both NH₄–N and PO₄–P concentrations in interstitial water. However, no obvious regularities were observed in the sediment vertical profiles. NH₄–N and PO₄–P concentrations in interstitial water were much higher than in overlying water, indicating that they could diffuse from sediment to overlying water. NH₄–N concentration was also higher in deep sediment. Growth properties of Z. latifolia (except for leaf length) are significantly correlated to wet bulk density, loss on ignition, NH₄–N concentration in sediment and NH₄–N, PO₄–P concentrations in interstitial water. The results indicate that water depth less than 50 cm is favorable for the growth of Z. latifolia, where it can exert its ecological function effectively. This research suggests a possibility to promote the growth of Z. latifolia and exert its ecological function by rational water depth management.     

Development and application of a master-slave parallel hybrid multi-objective evolutionary algorithm for groundwater remediation design

Two primary goals of a multi-objective evolutionary algorithm (MOEA) for solving multi-objective optimization problems are to find as many nondominated solutions as possible toward the true Pareto front and to maintain diversity of Pareto-optimal solutions along the tradeoff curves. However, few MOEAs can achieve these two goals concurrently. This study presents a new hybrid MOEA, the niched Pareto tabu search combined with a genetic algorithm (NPTSGA), in which the global search ability of niched Pareto tabu search (NPTS) is improved by the diversification of candidate solutions that arose from the evolving population of nondominated sorting genetic algorithm-II (NSGA-II). The NPTSGA coupled with a flow and transport model is developed for multi-objective optimal design of groundwater remediation systems. The proposed methodology is then applied to a large field-scale groundwater remediation system for cleanup of large trichloroethylene plume at the Massachusetts Military Reservation in Cape Cod, Massachusetts. Furthermore, a master-slave (MS) parallelization scheme based on the Message Passing Interface is incorporated into the NPTSGA to implement objective function evaluations in a distributed processor environment, which can greatly improve the efficiency of the NPTSGA in finding Pareto-optimal solutions to the real-world applications. This study shows that the MS parallel NPTSGA in comparison with the original NPTS and NSGA-II can balance the tradeoff between the diversity and optimality of solutions during the search process and is an efficient and effective tool for optimizing the multi-objective design of groundwater remediation systems under complicated hydrogeologic conditions.
