Study on distribution characteristics of strong earthquakes in Sichuan-Yunnan area and their geological tectonic background

Introduction Both Sichuan and Yunnan are provinces with more earthquakes. Based on catalogue of strong earthquakes in China compiled by the Prediction Department of China Earthquake Administration, there are 639 M5.0 earthquakes during 26 B.C.~A.D. 2001. Among them, 475 are M=5.0~5.9 events, 124 are M=6.0~6.9 events, 39 are M=7.0~7.9 events, and one is M=8 event occurred in Sichuan and Yunnan area. Here is one of the areas where seismic activities are most active in China. Sichuan-Yun…     

The characteristics of Quaternary activity of faults in the sea area near the Yangtze River mouth

Introduction As far as the frequency and magnitude are concerned, the earthquakes in the sea area to the east of Shanghai are far more strong than in land area with the largest one in the sea area near the Yangtze River mouth being MS=436, while in land, only MS=434 occurred on Sept. 1, 1624. As a moderately strong earthquake active area, the sea area near the Yangtze River mouth, may cause a potential risk to Shanghai. In 1971 and 1996, earthquakes with MS=5~6 occurred in this area.

STUDY ON THE VARIATION IN THE CONFIGURATION OF SUBTROPICAL ANTICYCLONE AND ITS MECHANISM DURING SEASONAL TRANSITION-PART Ⅱ:SEASONAL TRANSITION INDICES OVER THE ASIAN MONSOON REGION

Based on the studies in Part Ⅰ (see Mao et al.2003),this paper further examines the relationship between the Asian summer monsoon onset and variation in meridional position of the warm temperature ridge with a zonal orientation in mid-upper troposphere.During the Asian monsoon bursting consequentially over the Bay of Bengal,South China Sea,and South Asia,in addition to the reversal of winds in the lower and upper troposphere and deep convection before and after the onset,the atmospheric meridional temperature gradient (MTG) in the vicinity of the ridge-surface of subtropical high (WEB defined in Part Ⅰ) exhibits a significant reversal.Since the establishment of temperature structure with higher over north than over south of the WEB in the mid-upper troposphere (200-500 hPa) characterizes the collective essential that the Asian summer monsoon bursts over different areas,the MTG in mid-upper troposphere,based on the thermodynamics associated with the seasonal transition,should be a reasonable index to measure the Asian monsoon onset.The definition for onset date is proposed,and the time series of onset date for different sections are determined.As compared with the onset dates determined by other indices such as 850-hPa zonal wind and OLR.correlation analyses indicate that the 850-hPa zonal wind is only regional index,but the MTG index is applicable universally to the Asian monsoon regime.     

AN APPARENT TEMPERATURE MODEL BASED ON THERMAL EQUILIBRIUM

In this paper,a comprehensive analysis and review of the advances in the research of human body comfort degree is made.Based on the studies of human thermal equilibrium theories contributed by previous researchers,different apparent temperature models corresponding to different environments are set up in accordance with the current situation and the characteristics of metabolism in different groups of people in China.After case studies and comparison with present dominant human body comfort degree statistical models,it is proved that the apparent temperature models have high rationality and wide adaptability.Furthermore,the comfort scaling standard according to apparent temperature is suggested,which is suitable for the middle latitude regions in China.     

依兰-萝北地区地震危险区地震活动跟踪研究

本文选取地震活动图像演化和地震学参数变化两项指标，采用有时间段的时空扫描进行演化研究，逐步将这种演化研究推进到短期阶段进行跟踪研究。认为依兰-萝北地区近期发生5级左右地震可能性较小，黑龙江断裂两侧可能会有4级左右地震发生。     

长江源雀莫错-带上二叠统那益雄组火山岩特征及其构造环境

雀莫错一带那益雄组火山岩是由玄武岩组成的基性熔岩,岩石化学表现为低TiO2(<1％)和Al2O3,Na2O>K2O,属钙碱性系列。地球化学特征表现为轻稀土富集,Eu平坦或轻微负异常,富集大离子亲石元素(Rb,Sr,Ba,K)和高强场元素Th,亏损高强场元素Nb和Ta,反映了岛弧构造环境。上二叠统那益雄组岛弧型火山岩的发现,说明长江源地区晚古生代有岛弧存在,且该岛弧应为晚古生代特提斯洋向东俯冲在中北段形成的多岛-弧盆系统的一部分。     

内蒙古满都拉泥盆纪基性火山岩特征及其形成环境

满都拉西部出露的蛇绿混杂岩中橄榄辉长岩的单颗粒锆石U-Pb年龄(385.6±1.7)Ma,显示该蛇绿岩形成于早泥盆世晚期。其中的基性火山岩岩块为一套浅变质的枕状玄武岩、橄榄玄武岩,多与超基性岩岩块伴生。玄武岩的SiO2为47.16%～51.93%,TiO2为1.44%～2.13%,Al2O314.08%～17.51%,Na2O3.42%～5.39%,K2O0.22%～0.83%;具低钾特点,显示拉斑玄武岩特征。其富集大离子亲石元素Rb,Ba,Th和U,贫高场强元素Zr,Ti,Y等,似岛弧玄武岩或岛弧-洋中脊过渡型玄武岩或弧后盆地玄武岩。ΣREE为(113.130～189.560)×10—6,LREE/HREE为0.684～1.369,配分曲线呈右缓倾、平坦型,显示岛弧、洋中脊或E-洋中脊玄武岩特征。根据岩石学、岩石地球化学特征,结合区域构造背景,认为该套火山岩或该蛇绿岩的形成环境为弧后盆地。     

西藏措勤地区石炭纪—早二叠世古地理演化

措勤地区在泥盆纪浅海碳酸盐台地的背景基础上,在石炭纪—早二叠世发育了一套陆源碎屑为主的海相沉积,古地理呈北部以陆棚海为主、南部发育斜坡-深海相的特征。早石炭世永珠组陆棚浅海限于北部的甲龙到阿布勒一带,其南侧至格嘎一措勤一线发育较宽的斜坡相沉积,晚石炭世时发生海侵,并随着冰期气候的盛行在边缘斜坡海环境内沉积了多套冰海砾岩,随着冰期气候的结束和海退,早二叠世昂杰组陆棚海沉积范围向南扩展到格嘎-达雄南部,陆棚海地边缘发育了生物礁或生物滩。古地理演化反映了研究区在早石炭世受南北向拉张的构造背景下形成了不同于泥盆纪碳酸盐台地的陆棚海—斜坡—深海盆地的古地理格局,晚石炭世拉张达到鼎盛,其后的早二叠世主要发育了稳定陆棚海沉积。     

紫色土丘陵区典型小流域水体N、P含量及其环境特征

N、P各形态浓度在川中丘陵区小流域的水体中显示出明显的时空特征,在地表水中,以旱地为主的小流域上部的硝态氮、氨态氮、全氮要低于小流域下部水田的,而以流域人口密度较大的群英池和小流域下部的沟道水中氨态氮浓度较高,说明人为活动对其影响较大。在地下水中以小流域上部为最高,明显高于该流域的中下部;它们的季节变化与流域降水的季节变化基本是一致的。紫色土丘陵区水体富N,地下水NO_3~--N超标率达60％,;地表水和地下水均尚未出现P的富营养,但潜在的污染不可忽视。
