With a detailed study on petrology, mineralogy and geochemistry of some important Ordovician carbonate well core samples in Tazhong uplift of Tarim Basin, the distinguishing symbols of hydrothermal karstification are first put forward as the phenomena of rock hot depigmentation, hot cataclasm and the appearance of typical hydrothermal minerals such as fluorite, barite, pyrite, quartz and sphalerite. The main homogenization temperatures of primary fluid inclusions in fluorite are from 260 to 310°C, indicating the temperature of hydrothermal fluid. The fluid affected the dissolved rocks and showed typical geochemistry features with low contents of Na and Mg, and high contents of Fe, Mn and Si. The ratio of 3He/4He is 0.02Ra, indicating the fluid from the typical continental crust. The hydrothermal fluid karstification pattern may be described as follows: the hot fluid is from the Permian magma, containing dissolving ingredients of CO2 and H2S, and shifts along fault, ruptures and unconformity, and dissolves the surrounding carbonates while it flows. The mechanism of hydrothermal karstification is that the mixture of two or more fluids, which have different ion intensity and pH values, becomes a new unsaturated fluid to carbonates. The hydrothermal karstification is an important process to form hypo-dissolved pinholes in Ordovician carbonates of Tazhong uplift of Tarim Basin, and the forming of hydrothermal minerals also has favorable influence on carbonate reservoirs.
Compared to other mafic and ultramafic rocks from the CCSD main borehole as well as from the outcrops, rocks from the 540-600 m section is extraordinary in terms of its geophysical as well as geochemical properties. It consists of > 70% hematite-ilmenite garnet pyroxenite (HI-GPX) and < 30% intercalated rutile garnet pyroxenite (R-GPX). Whole-rock geochemical data show that HI-GPXs have: (1) relatively high V with an average of 606 ppm, but lower Nb and Ta; (2) highest TFeO, Fe2O3/FeO ratio, and highly variable but strong positive Eu anomalies with Eu/Eu? up to 2.9; (3) anomalously high V/Sc ratios ranging from 8.39 to 43.23, average 15.03; and (4) high amounts of hematite-ilmenite solid solutions with a very fine intergrowth structure down to nanometer scale. V/Sc ratios in the CCSD garnet pyroxenites are correlated negatively with MgO, but positively with Fe2O3/FeO ratios. Both suites of pyroxenites have similar rare earth elements and high field strength elements geochemistry. These features demonstrate that these pyroxenites were formed from metamorphism of high-Fe and/or -Ti gabbroic cumulates. This can account not only for low high field strength elements (HFSE) and rare earth elements (REE) but also low Nb/Ta and Zr/Hf ratios in these rocks. Seemingly negative correlation between Nb/Ta and Zr/Hf in the CCSD metabasites, not significantly affected by UHP metamorphism, is also consistent with the silicate differentiation trend in a basaltic magma chamber. 相似文献
To decipher the origin of oxygen-deficient shelfal deposits is significant for tracing the distribution of marine source rocks
and interpreting the evolution of depositional environment. The origin of the Middle Permian Chihsia Formation in South China
remains a puzzle for long with its evident oxygen-deficient features but diverse benthos. This paper shows a typical Chihsian
depositional rhythm composed of the massive and the laminated limestones with ecological and geochemical features. Massive
bioclastic limestone from the rhythm was aerobic in paleoxygenation condition indicated by both the ecological and geochemical
features. However, a contradictory oxygenation was inferred for the “laminated” counterpart from the rhythm, with the ecological
signal being aerobic and the geochemical one being anoxic. The difference in ecological and geochemical indications was interpreted
as the instability of paleoxygenation condition in shelf environments, caused by an enhanced paleoproductivity. Rhythmic occurrence
of the oxygen-deficient condition might have been stemmed from paleo-Tethyan paleocurrents flowing across South China.

According to records of 17 meteorological stations distributed in the study area, climate change of the middle Inner Mongolia
in northern China was analyzed in this paper. Based on SPOT VGT data, combined with field investigation, local vegetation
change was detected in the last 10 years. The results show that annual mean air temperature obviously rose, while precipitation
slightly decreased in fluctuation in the study area during the last 50 years. Air temperature increasing rates are +0.318°C 10 year−1 during 1960-2009 and +0.423°C 10 year−1 during 1980–2009, while precipitation decreasing rates are −2.91 mm 10 year−1 during 1960–2009. There were five different dry or wet periods from the 1960s to the 2000s in order, and the wetter 1990s
and the drier 2000s changed dramatically in the study area. Local climate totally tend to warm–dry conditions during the last
50 years. According to coefficient of variation (Cv) of yearly growing-season cumulative NDVI value and yearly NDVI maximum in pixel scale, vegetation had experienced huge temporal
and spatial variation during the last 10 years. Recently, frequent droughts and dust storms seriously affected local agriculture
and grazing activities, and resulted in heavy economic loss, especially over the drought period of 1999–2001. Faced with those
drought disasters accompanied with strong dust storms, the local authorities proposed the enclosing-transferring strategy
and made great efforts to adapt overt climate change and improve environment, including making selective emigration, decreasing
livestock numbers, fencing grasslands and building forage production bases with irrigation instruments and actively adjusting
industry structure. However, some effects and potential problems of this adaptation strategy still need to be comprehensively
assessed further in longer time scales and aimed at different sub-regions. 相似文献
