渝东北陡山沱组碳酸锰微生物岩沉积环境初探

沉积型碳酸锰矿床多被认为沉积于水体较深、局限且较还原的沉积环境,特别是黑色页岩型碳酸锰矿床。在扬子北缘城口地区,埃迪卡拉系陡山沱组顶部黑色页岩中也发育碳酸锰沉积,黑色页岩及锰矿石Ce元素异常被认为是指示沉积环境的关键证据,但缺乏系统的沉积学证据,其沉积环境还存在争议。本次研究通过野外剖面、钻井岩心观察和室内薄片观察,详细描述了城口地区陡山沱组碳酸锰岩石的沉积结构、构造特征,对其展开了详细的沉积学研究,确定了其沉积环境并建立了沉积模式。研究表明,城口锰矿是典型的微生物岩沉积,菱锰矿以层状构造为主,内部发育叠层石、核形石、树形石以及凝块石。其中,核形石菱锰矿常黏结生长,菱锰矿微观特征记录了凝块状、球粒状、丝状、管状、纤维状以及放射状等微生物岩微结构。关键钻孔岩心沉积记录显示,研究区陡山沱组菱锰矿与胶磷矿交互沉积,菱锰矿中发育各种微生物岩旋回沉积,少见正粒序层理,内部偶有记录代表水动力变强的内碎屑层,而胶磷矿以强水动力内碎屑沉积为特征,常发育于菱锰矿上部,显示含锰岩系—含磷岩系旋回沉积特征,揭示陡山沱组末期城口地区沉积水体逐渐变浅的特征。结合区域陡山沱组地层沉积特征,认为扬子北缘城口地区陡山沱组1段为缺失盖帽的无障壁海岸沉积,陡山沱组2段是具有混积特征的碳酸盐岩缓坡沉积,微生物岩型菱锰矿主要发育于浅缓坡下部障积丘礁沉积环境。值得注意的是,研究区陡山沱组末期障积丘礁的发育是加速该区域沉积体系由缓坡向台地演化的重要盆地演化动力学因素。     

江西阳储岭两期岩浆活动与钨成矿作用的关系：来自黑云母地球化学的证据

阳储岭斑岩型W-Mo矿床位于江南造山带中部,是华南地区最早发现的斑岩型钨钼矿床。已探明WO₃资源储量6.13万吨(平均品位0.2%),Mo资源储量1.69万吨(平均品位0.03%～0.06%),其成矿作用与中生代花岗质岩浆活动密切相关。区内发育早期花岗闪长岩和晚期二长花岗斑岩,钨矿体以细脉状和浸染状产于二长花岗斑岩体内,而花岗闪长岩内未见矿化。两期岩浆活动与钨成矿的关系尚不明确,制约其含矿差异性的因素尚不清楚。本文以花岗闪长岩和二长花岗斑岩中的黑云母为研究对象,对比研究两类岩浆结晶分异程度、氧逸度、岩浆流体卤素浓度,探讨其对钨成矿的制约。黑云母主量元素分析结果显示,阳储岭两类岩浆岩均为壳源,但显著不同于S型花岗岩的Mg/(Fe+Mg)和Al^VI值,指示其具有I型花岗岩的特征。黑云母的微量元素信息显示,相对于花岗闪长岩中的黑云母(类型一),二长花岗斑岩中的黑云母(类型二)显示低的K/Rb、Nb/Ta比值,高的Rb、Cs、Nb和Ta含量,表明其分异程度较花岗闪长岩更高,更有利于钨的富集。两类黑云母所指示的岩浆氧逸度均在NNO缓冲线附近,表明其母岩...     

栾川西鱼库隐伏斑岩型Mo-W矿床地球化学及其意义

西鱼库大型隐伏斑岩钼-钨矿床是近年来在栾川地区开展深部找矿勘查过程中的新发现。该矿床与南泥湖、上房沟钼矿不同,其矿体主要赋存于斑岩体内部而非岩体外接触带的矽卡岩或角岩中。与南泥湖和上房岩体相比,西鱼库隐伏斑岩体的Si O2、K2O含量略低,具有正Eu异常,表明西鱼库隐伏斑岩体比南泥湖和上房岩体分异程度略低,更接近成矿岩浆中心位置。     

Sr fluxes and isotopic compositions of the eleven rivers originating from the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and their contributions to <Superscript>87</Superscript>Sr/<Superscript>86</Superscript>Sr evolution of seawater

To evaluate influence of chemical weathering of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) on seawater ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr variation, river water and sediment samples were collected, and their Sr concentrations and isotopic compositions analyzed, from the seven large rivers that originated from the QTP. By combining these with the data of the Ganges, Brahmaputra, Indus and Irrawaddy originated in the southern QTP, the total Sr flux of the eleven rivers reaches 3.47×10⁹ mol·a⁻¹, which accounts for 10.2% of the total Sr flux transported by the global rivers. The weighted mean ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr is 0.71694, higher than the average value of the global rivers. The ⁸⁷Sr_ex (⁸⁷Sr flux in excess of the seawater ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio) of the Chinese seven rivers is 1.55×10⁶ mol·a⁻¹, only accounting for about 6% of the value of the eleven rivers originated from QTP, and the Ganges-Brahmaputra system accounts for 86%. We assume that the QTP rivers have no strontium contributions to the oceans before ∼40 Ma and the Sr fluxes of the global rivers, except the QTP eleven rivers, are constant, then a maximum linear increase in Sr fluxes of the QTP rivers from zero to the modern value in response to tectonic uplift can explain ∼69% increase of seawater ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr over the past ∼40 Ma and the remainder of 31% is perhaps provided from other factors.

Trophic status of the Iranian Caspian Sea based on water quality parameters and phytoplankton diversity

The present study attempted to test the applicability of the trophic index (TRIX) for assessing trophic status along the Iranian coast of the Caspian Sea (CS). In order to increase the sensitivity of the TRIX for this area, we defined the range (lower and upper limits) from data collected between 1994 and 2005 which have been used as a reference. Several biological and chemical water quality parameters were determined and compared with the TRIX in order to describe the water quality status of the area. Comparisons were also made on two temporarily and spatially varied trophic status at the study site. Sampling was carried out at 36 stations during Phase I (1996–1997: before the introduction of an alien species Mnemiopsis leidyi, as a background data) while 24 stations were sampled during Phase II in 2005 (after the introduction of the alien species). A Parallel Study (as supplementary data) from 16 smaller scale sampling at shallower sites was also included in the discussion (1994–2005 on 18 transects). The results show that nutrient concentration (DIN, DIP compounds), oxygen (as absolute %) deviation from saturation (aD%O), chlorophyll a and also the Caspian Sea Trophic Index (TRIXCS) increase significantly after the introduction of an alien species (p<0.01). During Phase I and the Parallel Study, the phytoplankton community was dominated (based on important species index) by Thalassionema nitzschioides, Skeletonema costatum (Chrysophyta) year round but during Phase II, Spirulina laxissma (Cyanophyta) dominated annually and in autumn, coinciding with the minimum Shannon–Weaver diversity and Evenness indices recorded. Several trophic status indices and indicators were applied and an overall analysis suggested that the area has low trophic level during Phase I and high trophic level during Phase II. During the Parallel Study, low trophic level was recorded during the pre-invasion period and high trophic level for the post-invasion period.     

基于奇异谱分析的重磁位场分离方法

奇异谱分析是一种近年兴起的时间序列分析方法,它利用降秩原理实现信号分离.该方法将数据空间投影到不同特征的子空间中,并用奇异值来表征这些子空间的性质,最后通过截取奇异值实现数据的重构.重磁位场分离可以看成一种多信号叠加的分离问题.不同特征的重磁异常具有不同特征的奇异谱,这是奇异谱分析用于解决位场分离问题的应用基础.本文通过建立理论模型,分析重磁异常的奇异谱特征,得出适用于重磁位场分离的最优参数选择方法,并与传统方法进行比较.对比发现,无论是横向叠加模型、垂向叠加模型还是斜向叠加模型,奇异谱分析都具有很好的分离效果.最后,将奇异谱分析用于鄂东南某矿区的重力资料处理中,实现弱异常的识别和分离.     

Assessment of seismic hazard of roller compacted concrete dam site in Gilgit-Baltistan of northern Pakistan

The proposed site of the Diamer Bhasha Dam in northern Pakistan is situated in an active tectonic zone with intensive seismicity, which makes it necessary for seismic hazard analysis(SHA). Deterministic and probabilistic approaches have been used for SHA of the dam site. The Main Mantle Thrust(MMT), Main Karakaram Thrust(MKT), Raikot-Sassi Fault(RKSF) and Kohistan Fault(KF) have been considered as major seismic sources, all of which can create maximum ground shaking with maximum potential earthquake(MPE). Deterministically estimated MPE for magnitudes of 7.8, 7.7, 7.6, and 7.1 can be produced from MMT, MKT, RKSF and KF, respectively. The corresponding peak ground accelerations(PGA) of 0.07, 0.11, 0.13 and 0.05 g can also be generated from these earthquakes, respectively. The deterministic analysis predicts a so-called floating earthquake as a MPE of magnitude = 7.1 as close as 10 km away from the site. The corresponding PGA was computed as 0.38 g for a maximum design earthquake at the project site. However, the probabilistic analysis revealed that the PGA with 50% probability of exceedance in 100 years is 0.18 g. Thus, this PGA value related to the operational basis earthquake(OBE) is suggested for the design of this project with shear wave velocity(V_(s30)) equal to 760 m/s under dense soil and soft rock conditions.     

Spatio‐temporal analysis of glacial ice area distribution of Hunza River Basin,Karakoram region of Pakistan

There is a high degree of uncertainty about the state and fate of Pakistan's Karakoram glaciers due to data scarcity in high altitude regions. They are thought to be less vulnerable to climatic change because they behave differently as compared with eastern Himalayas. This study measures the decadal temporal changes in the glacial ice area of Karakoram's Hunza River Basin, one of the eight subbasins of Upper Indus Basin. An attempt has been made to investigate the relationship between glacial ice area changes and calculated values of precipitation, temperature and run‐off. A combination of satellite and field‐based approach is applied. Output includes maps of glacial ice hypsometries of eight glacial ice subregions of Hunza River Basin for 3 years (i.e., 1989, 2002, and 2010). The results show a decreasing trend in the glacial ice‐covered area signifying a reduction of 20.47% with the largest reduction being in the lower elevation bands. There is presently no conclusive answer as to why glacial ice in the Karakoram is acting differently from the near‐global indication of glacial ice changes. Climate data from high altitudes are needed to find answer for this anomalous behaviour.
