Interactions between hot Jupiters and their host stars

A young hot Jupiter might have been tidally inflated beyond its Roche radius when its orbit was being circularized. This scenario has the potential to explain a couple of solid or tentative observations such as a pile‐up of hot Jupiters around 0.04‐0.05 AU, the mass‐period correlation of transiting planets, as well as the existence of hot Neptunes. Other scenarios such as tidal dissipation in a planet‐host star as well as the magnetic interaction will be also discussed. (© 2005 WILEY‐VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim)

南沙海区中生界岩相分布及构造特征

为了了解南中国海南部南沙群岛陆架-陆坡区中生代地层发育情况,作者通过综合分析该海区钻井、拖网及1987年以来采集的20000多公里的多道反射地震勘探等资料,得到了对该区中生界基本特征的如下新认识:空间分布上,南沙的中生界具有从北部的郑和-礼乐隆起南缘向南增厚的趋势;沉积岩相方面,东部三叠纪时为深海相,侏罗纪为浅海与三角洲相,白垩纪为浅海-内浅海相,而往西南部中生代的海水深度有变深的趋势;中-新生代变形上,在南沙西部的曾母盆地,中生界褶皱为复式的、非协调性的,南沙中部多为舒缓褶皱,东部仅在近巴拉望海槽地带出现小幅度的褶皱。结合围区中生界及特提斯构造域的发育特征,作者提出南沙地块上的海相中生界在大地构造上归属于残留在中特提斯洋北部减薄陆缘地壳上的中特提斯期海相沉积地层,是该海域油气资源勘探不可忽视的对象。     

Igneous banding, schlieren and mafic enclaves in calc-alkaline granites: The Budduso pluton (Sardinia)

This study deals with the origin of igneous layering in plutons, and, especially, the extent layering is related to mafic–silicic magma interactions. The Budduso pluton (Sardinia) shows three main scales of organization.(i) Large scale lithological variations correspond to three main magmatic units, with differentiation increasing from the Outer (hornblende-bearing biotite granodiorite/monzogranite) to the Middle (biotite monzogranite) and the Inner (leucomonzogranite) units. The striking homogeneity of ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr initial ratios (0.7090 ± 4) and ε_Nd(t) values (− 5.6 ± 0.1) strongly suggests that magma isotopic equilibration was achieved prior to emplacement, whereas mixing/mingling structures observed within the pluton reflect second-stage processes involving broadly cogenetic components.(ii) Metre to decametre-scale igneous layering may be isomodal or modally-graded, locally with cross-layering. Biotite and plagioclase compositions are similar in both biotite-rich and quartzofeldspathic layers, as are the trace-element patterns which differ only by relative abundances. This precludes an origin by fractional crystallization. A penetrative submagmatic fabric superimposed on the layering and corresponding mainly to flattening can be ascribed to interference between pluton growth and regional deformation.(iii) Composite layering and schlieren are commonly associated to mafic microgranular enclaves, locally within synmagmatic shear zones or disrupted synplutonic dykes. In that case, there is a progressive shift in biotite X_Fe values from the core of enclave ( 0.65) to the host monzogranite ( 0.72): schlieren in the monzogranite show biotite X_Fe values similar to that of the host rock, whereas schlieren close to mafic enclaves show lower X_Fe values ( 0.69) towards those of enclave rims.These features can be ascribed to three main processes: (i) assembly of differentiated (± mixed/mingled) magmatic pulses; (ii) local hydrodynamic sorting related to density currents in a mush, and segregation of residual melt; (iii) mechanical disruption and chemical hybridization of mafic magmas during ascent or within the pluton related to magma dynamics. None of these processes affect the whole pluton but they are limited to specific magmatic units. Therefore, pluton growth by incremental assembly of magma batches is not incompatible with magma chamber processes.     

Low-Level Analysis of Lanthanides in Eleven Silicate Rock Reference Materials by ICP-MS After Group Separation Using Cation-Exchange Chromotography

A simple method is described for the determination of lanthanides in depleted rocks based on acid dissolution, cation-exchange chromatography and ICP-MS analysis using a low flow, microconcentric nebuliser. The potential of the method is evaluated by analysis in triplicate of eleven low-concentration level geochemical reference materials (UB-N, NIM-D, BIR-1, DNC-1, JB-2, JGb-1, JGb-2, NIM-N, NIM-P, FK-N and MA-N). The repeatability of the three dissolutions is between 0.2% and 0.6% relative standard deviation (RSD) for basaltic samples BIR-1 and JB-2, with the exception of La in BIR-1 (2.6% RSD), presumably because of blank or memory effects. The results are more scattered for coarsegrained rocks. A good agreement between the results and working values is observed for most mafic samples and the serpentinite UB-N. Significant deviations observed between the data obtained in this work and working values for some reference materials might reflect heterogeneities of the REE distributions in coarse-grained (especially granitic) rocks at the 10 0 mg sub-sampling scale.

New Thorium Isotope Ratio Measurements in Silicate Reference Materials: A‐THO,AGV‐2, BCR‐2, BE‐N,BHVO‐2 and BIR‐1

A two‐step Th isolation protocol, involving micro‐columns of TRU‐Spec extraction chromatography material and AG1 resin, was evaluated. The MC‐ICP‐MS procedure included ²³²Th tailing characterisation and correction, and calibrator bracketing using an in‐house standard solution (ThS1) to correct for instrumental mass bias and Faraday cup to secondary electron multiplier relative gain. Repeated analyses of reference solutions (UCSC Th ‘A’, WUN, OU Th ‘U’, IRMM‐36) were consistent with published data. Six reference materials (A‐THO, BCR‐2, AGV‐2, BHVO‐2, BE‐N and BIR‐1) were processed. The average ²³⁰Th/²³²Th values obtained for these samples are in excellent agreement with published data. In addition, we report the first ²³⁰Th/²³²Th values for BE‐N and BIR‐1. The intermediate precisions for rock samples ranged from ± 0.24 to ± 0.49% (2 RSD) and were similar to those achieved for synthetic solutions, thereby supporting the overall validity of the chemical separation, data acquisition and reduction procedures. Counting statistics on the ²³⁰Th isotope was the most significant source of uncertainty. The intermediate precision of the mean ²³⁰Th/²³²Th for the Th‐depleted BIR‐1 (5.64 × 10^?6 ± 0.27%, 2 RSD) is in the range of the analyses of other reference materials analysed in this study.     

长江口区鱼类资源调查与研究

长江口区是我国最大的河口渔场,开发历史悠久,水产资源丰富。它位于东海北部，西靠大陆,有长江入海,北接吕四渔场,南邻著名的舟山渔场,东至东经124°00′,包括长江下游上海江段至佘山以东的广大水域。 长江口区的环境特点是处于沿岸水和长江冲淡水为主的低盐水系和外海高盐水系的混合区。底质以粘土质软泥、细粉砂为主。水深一般在60m以内,温、盐度变化大,以长江口引水船水文站为例,表层水温年平均为16.6℃,波动范围为5.5-27.6℃;盐度年平均为12.8,波动范围为7.19-19.9。 长江口及邻近海域水质肥沃,营养盐类和饵料生物基础丰富,是初级生产力较高的水域(刘瑞玉等,1987)。又由于水浅,地形复杂(北有长江大沙堆),造成潮流湍急,该水域成为大黄鱼、小黄鱼、带鱼和银鲳等经济种类的重要产卵场。长江口区也是夏秋季银鲳、刀鲚、凤鲚、带鱼、石首鱼类以及鲐、鲹等中、上层鱼类的重要索饵场;又是名贵种类鲥、松江鲈、中华鲟溯河或降海洄游的必经水道。河口和崇明岛近岸低盐水域还是中华绒螯蟹蟹苗和鳗苗、银鱼等的集中产区。 长江三峡工程的建造将对河口渔场及部近海域渔业资源产生什么影响,已引起人们的关注与重视。为此,进行了长江口区渔业资源调查,其目的在于了解该水域渔业资源的本底现状;并评估三峡工程建成后对渔业资源的影响,进而为持久地利用河口渔业资源提出科学依据。
