The Geologic Time Scale and the Italian stratigraphic record

The construction of the Geologic Time Scale (GTS) is a titanic scientific challenge that has been under way for two centuries and will require much dedicated effort in the future. Italy preserves a paramount stratigraphic record of Mesozoic and Cenozoic marine sediments that have been significant in the development of the modern GTS. The Italian stratigraphic record has been histori-cally important in introducing and defining the standard Chronostratigraphic Units (CUs) of the Neogene and Quaternary. Pelagic successions from Northern Apen-nines and Southern Alps have been used in the seventies for integrating the late Cretaceous-Paleogene Geomag-netic Polarity Time Scale (GPTS) with planktonic microfossil biostratieraohv and standard CUs. This was a major contribution to the construction of a new gener-ation of GTS based on integrated magnetobiochronol-ogy. The middle Miocene to early Pleistocene marinerecord from Sicily and southern Italy has been funda-mental for establishing the recently developed Astro-nomical Time Scale (ATS). In prospect, there are many potentials still to be exploited in the Italian marine stratigraphic record for implementing the GTS by defin-ing GSSPs of various CUs, improving magneto-biochronology and extending downwards the ATS.     

计算机地球化学编图系统 小比例尺

地球化学图册或图集是地质科学的基本图件。其重要意义不亚于地质图。为满足我国出版地球化学图集的要求,研究如何应用计算机技术实现我国各省的多元素地球化学图的编图自动化,形成具有我国特色的、满足国内化探需要的计算机编图系统,使我国的地球化学图件赶上或超过其他国家的水平是很有必要的。一、系统内容 (一)数据的拼接、归位和坐标体系转换目前编制1∶50万或更小比例尺图件是采用1∶20万化探数据。作分省或分片区域性地化图时,是把1∶20万单图幅数据拼接成多图幅整
