Cenozoic Tectonic Evolution of the Arcuate Structures in the Northeast Tibetan Plateau

<正>The northeast Tibetan plateau contains important information on the northeastward growth of the Tibetan plateau.It is bounded by the Ordos Block to the east,the Alxa Block to the north,and the Tibetan Plateau to thesouth(inset in Fig.1;Tapponnier et al.,2001),and has undergone complex intracontinental deformation during the Cenozoic.In this region,the northeast-convex arcuate structures developed northeastward,and are composed of     

Improved Geometric Model of Extensional Fault–bend Folding

Extensional fault–bend folds, also called rollovers, are one of the most common structures in extensional settings. Numerous studies have shown that oblique simple shear is the most appropriate mechanism for quantitative modeling of geometric relations between normal faults and the strata in their hanging walls. However, the oblique simple shear has a rather serious issue derived from the shear direction, particularly above convex bends. We use geometric and experimental methods to study the deformation of extensional fault–bend folds on convex bends. The results indicate that whether the fault bends are concave or convex, the shear direction of the hanging wall dips toward the main fault. On this basis, we improve the previous geometric model by changing the shear direction above the convex bends. To illustrate basin history, our model highlights the importance of the outer limit of folding instead of the growth axial. Moreover, we propose a new expression for the expansion index that is applicable to the condition of no deposition on the footwall. This model is validated by modeling a natural structure of the East China Sea Basin.     

Formation and Evolution of a Paleosol across the Lower Silurian-Lower Permian Boundary in Zunyi District, Northern Guizhou, China and Its Paleoenvironment and Paleoclimate Implications

This paper presents a set of bulk geochemical and mineralogical data from a paleoweathering profile located in Zunyi District, Northern Guizhou, China. It was formed at the top of the Hanjiadian Formation of the Lower Silurian. A truncated, argillic, gleyed, kryptic paleospodosol is recognized in the paleoweathering profile. Ratios of immobile elements (Ti/Zr, Ti/Al) and their binary (e.g., Nb vs. Zr/TiO2 and Th/Sc vs. Zr/Sc), triangular diagrams (La-Th-Sc, Th-Sc-Zr/10, Zr-Cr-Ga) reflect that the Gaojiayan paleosol is the product of in-situ weathering of gray-green silty mudstone of the underlying Hanjiadian Formation. Mass balance calculations indicate K enrichment and Na enrichment in the upper and lower portions of paleosol, respectively. These findings both are the results of transgression, which brings substantial concentrations of such elements as K, Na, and Sr. In particular, K enrichment is achieved by the illitization of kaolinite. The biological processes of terrestrial vascular plants also enhance K concentration, especially at the top of the paleosol. Na enrichment is a consequence of albitization and/or adsorption by clay minerals through cation exchange. The mass distributions and relative mass changes of rare earth elements (REEs) in the studied profile display characteristics of vertical zonation. Three peaks in total REEs content are observed, indicating two paleoclimatic or paleoenvironmental changes. Mineralogical characteristics indicate that the paleoclimate changed first from warm and humid to cold and dry and later, to dry and lightly warmer. The corresponding soil environment varies from weakly acidic to strongly alkaline and later, to weakly acidic. Mass translocation characteristics of REEs and several transition metals suggest that the Gaojiayan paleosol may have undergone top erosion.

均质土岸坡崩塌与河床冲淤交互过程试验

在弯道水槽中展开系列试验,研究水力冲刷过程中均质土岸坡冲刷崩塌输移与河床冲淤过程及其影响因素。该过程及变化特征可描述为:水下坡面侵蚀及坡脚淘刷导致岸坡失稳崩塌;暂时堆积在凹岸坡脚处的崩塌体加剧附近水流紊动程度利于其输运与分解;分解后较粗的颗粒随弯道螺旋流以推移质形式被输移至下游凸岸落淤,较细的颗粒大部分都随水流以悬移质形式被携带至下游出口;水流结构随岸坡及河床变形而调整;如此循环往复。试验成果进一步表明:冲刷状态下,试验材料黏性越小、近岸流速越大、作用时间越长,岸坡冲刷崩塌量及河床冲刷量都越大;同条件下岸坡冲刷崩塌总量大于河床冲刷总量,且河床相对冲刷率随岸坡冲刷崩塌量的增大而减小,数值范围为0.40~0.92。

汶川大型地震滑坡的类型及启程剧动机理研究

2008年汶川大地震诱发大型地震滑坡300余处,造成了巨大的生命财产损失,研究其发生机理有重要的理论意义和防灾减灾的实用价值.经收集分析已有地震滑坡的研究成果及多次深入现场调查,本文发现众多大型地震滑坡发生时都伴随有区别于汶川主震的地面震动,并将其称为滑坡地面震动,简称滑坡震动.本文在论述滑坡震动依据、成因及特征的基础上,根据滑坡震动力与主震力的组合情况及其对大型地震滑坡的影响不同,将汶川地震滑坡划分为3种类型:主震型地震滑坡,迟震型地震滑坡和同震型地震滑坡.认为主震型地震滑坡在主震结束前滑动,其主导失稳力学因素为主震力和重力,无滑坡震动或可忽略; 同震型地震滑坡亦在主震结束前滑动,但其主导失稳力学因素除主震力和重力外,滑坡震动力起重要作用; 迟震型地震滑坡在主震结束后滑动,主导失稳力学因素为滑坡震动力和重力.认为大型地震滑坡地面震动的发生与活断层导致地震类似,据此提出了滑坡震动加速度的估算方法,并以此为基础分析研究了各类型地震滑坡的启程剧动机理.
