扬子陆块庙湾蛇绿岩中橄榄岩的同位素年代学及其构造意义

扬子陆核崆岭高级变质地体内出露一套强变形的基性-超基性岩岩石组合, 主要呈似层状、透镜状分布于崆岭群中, 该套变基性-超基性岩组合对扬子陆块早期构造演化过程具有重要意义.通过同位素稀释法(isotope dilution thermal ionization mass spectrometry, 简称ID-TIMS)获得该套岩石组合中蛇纹石化方辉橄榄岩全岩Sm-Nd等时线年龄为1063±12Ma, 说明Sm-Nd同位素体系可用于对超低含量、发生强蚀变作用的超基性岩样品进行定年.样品Nd同位素组成相对均一(ε_Nd(t)值为6.90~7.32), 表明形成于封闭体系中, 其对应Nd同位素两阶段模式年龄为1.13~1.09Ga, 与形成年龄接近, 说明来自亏损软流圈地幔部分熔融.结合区域上已有的中元古代末期到新元古代早期构造岩浆事件研究, 认为在该时期扬子陆块可能由多个微陆块组成, 就扬子陆核而言, 其与扬子陆块西侧之间很可能存在分隔的大洋.

江西东乡铜矿床成因:铜和硫同位素联合约束

东乡铜矿床的赋矿岩石以石炭系砂岩和燕山期花岗斑岩为主。文章对东乡铜矿床同位素地球化学进行了研究,探讨了成矿物质来源及矿床成因。东乡矿区块状矿石和花岗斑岩的黄铁矿δ~(34)S值(0.3‰~1.2‰)非常接近深部地幔硫的值,其δ~(34)S值呈现明显的塔式分布,分布范围较窄,表明矿石中的硫主要来自深源岩浆。δ~(65)Cu值分布范围较窄(-2.10‰~0.17‰),整体接近于零附近,明显不同于块状硫化物矿床(δ~(65)Cu=-0.98‰~3.14‰)、矽卡岩型矿床(δ~(65)Cu=-1.29‰~2.98‰)和热液脉型矿床中δ~(65)Cu值(-3.70‰~0.44‰)的分布范围,其δ~(65)Cu值变化范围大于岩浆矿床的δ~(65)Cu值(-0.62‰~0.40‰),更接近于斑岩型矿床的δ~(65)Cu值(-1.16‰~0.81‰),表明东乡铜矿与岩浆热液作用具有密切的成因联系。因此,推断东乡铜矿为岩浆热液型矿床。     

Response to the comment by Z.F. Zhao and T.S. Gao (2007) on “Paleozoic ages and excess Ar in garnets from the Bixiling eclogite in dabieshan, China: New insights from Ar/Ar dating by stepwise crushing”

In our paper we supposed that the Paleozoic ages of the Bixiling eclogitic garnets by ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar crushing in vacuo were related to the UHP metamorphism. Zhao and Gao [Zhao Z.-F. and Gao T.-S. (2007) Comment on “Paleozoic ages and excess ⁴⁰Ar in garnets from the Bixiling eclogite in Dabieshan, China:Newinsights from ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar dating by stepwise crushing” by Qiu and Wijbrans (2006). Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta71(24), 6046-6050] dispute our conclusions and re-interpret them as “the age of garnet growth by low-T/HP blueschist/eclogite-facies metamorphism of the UHP eclogite precursor during arc-continent collision in the early Paleozoic” without presenting any new petrological evidence. Based on our present understanding of ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar crushing technique and petrological observations, we do not agree with their re-interpretation and still prefer our original interpretation.     

Seasonal changes in imposex and tissue burden of butyltin compounds in Thais clavigera populations along the coastal area of Mirs Bay, China

We assessed the current status of tributyltin (TBT) contamination of Thais clavigera (Gastropoda) along the coastal area of Mirs Bay, China for the first time. The snail samples were collected from 10 different sites in the summer (June) and winter (December) of 2006, respectively. They were analyzed for imposex status, i.e. relative penis size index (RPSI) and vas deferens sequence index (VDSI), followed by quantification of butyltins in their tissues. Most of the collected females suffered from imposex, but the level of butyltin contamination varied with the distance from Yantian Port, which is currently the fourth busiest container port in the world. The tissue concentration of TBT varied with season. For a particular site, the winter samples in general contained much higher concentration of TBT than the summer samples. RPSI, VDSI and organotin concentrations were higher in T. clavigera collected from sites closer to the Port, such as the Seafood Street and Kat O. Both RPSI and VDSI were positively correlated with the tissue burden of tributyltin. VDSI exhibited little seasonal variability, whereas RPSI showed marked seasonal variability, with lower values in the summer samples. The current results will serve as an important reference for long-term monitoring of butyltin contamination in this area.     

2019年12月26日湖北应城M4.9地震震源参数及余震活动性研究

2019年12月26日湖北应城发生M4.9有感地震,其震感波及武汉大部分地区。为了分析该地震的发震构造及余震活动性,本文利用波形拟合方法测定了不同速度模型下该地震的震源机制解和矩心深度,并用Bootstrapping抽样反演技术评价反演结果;此外,利用模板匹配技术匹配主震和目录余震波形,获取了更为完整的余震目录。结果显示,应城地震以走滑为主,矩心深度7.5km左右,矩震级M_W4.67;应城地震有1个前震和17个余震,余震序列缺少M2~4事件,表明应城地震为孤立型地震,M2以下地震的b值为0.8。

带阻尼的一维地震反射波成像

本文是文献［８］的继续，文中提出了地震勘探的带阻尼波动方程反演的新方法，应用此反演算法可以通过微机识别地层的波阻抗，这里把地层分成１００层，地震数据含有１０％的误差，且反演计算时间仅仅是正演计算时间的三倍．文献［１］－［４］的计算方法是基于波动方程的混合问题，而文献［８］所提出的反演算法是基于波动方程的哥西问题，许多例子充分说明后者更有效．     

Failure time variation derived from R–S relation: the role of the static stress perturbation

In general, earthquake cycle related to earthquake faulting could include four major processes which could be described by (1) fault locking, (2) self-acceleration or nucleation (possible foreshocks), (3) coseismic slip, and (4) post-stress relaxation and afterslip. A sudden static stress change/perturbation in the surrounding crust can advance/delay the fault instability or failure time and modify earthquake rates. Based on a simple one-dimensional spring-slider block model with the combination of rate-and-state-dependent friction relation, in this study, we have approximately derived the simple analytical solutions of clock advance/delay of fault failures caused by a sudden static Coulomb stress change applied in the different temporal evolution periods during an earthquake faulting. The results have been used in the physics-based explanation of delayed characteristic earthquake in Parkfield region, California, in which the next characteristic earthquake of M 6.0 after 1966 occurred in 2004 instead of around 1988 according to its characteristic return period of 22 years. At the same time, the analytical solutions also indicate that the time advance/delay in Coulomb stress change derived by the dislocation model has a certain limitation and fundamental flaw. Furthermore, we discussed the essential difference between rate- and state-variable constitutive (R–S) model and Coulomb stress model used commonly in current earthquake triggering study, and demonstrated that, in fact, the Coulomb stress model could be involved in the R–S model. The results, we have obtained in this study, could be used in the development of time-dependent fault interaction model and the probability calculation related to the time-dependent and renewal earthquake prediction model.
