地震反射剖面揭示的苏北盆地北缘构造特征及其演化

苏北盆地位于下扬子板块东北部鲁苏隆起的南侧,由于构造位置特殊,其构造演化比较复杂。利用高分辨率反射剖面资料,得到苏北盆地北缘清晰的地下结构和断裂形态。结果表明,整个剖面以大东凸起为对称轴,两侧箕状凹陷近似对称发育,涟南凹陷呈南深北浅的形态,涟北凹陷呈南浅北深的形态,该凹陷内正断层发育。这些研究成果为建立研究区的构造演化模式提供了重要的信息,推测自白垩纪末期以来,研究区在印度板块碰撞和太平洋板块碰撞影响下,拉张裂隙和挤压隆起2种作用交替进行,形成了对称箕状凹陷。

鄂尔多斯盆地中西部深部流体活动及其对奥陶系天然气形成的热作用

鄂尔多斯是一个非常稳定的克拉通盆地,深部流体一直被认为是禁区。通过构造学、火成岩岩石学、矿物学、同位素以及热史分析等方法,首次系统证实了鄂尔多斯盆地中西部发生过强烈的深部流体活动,并分析了其形成机制和对奥陶系天然气形成的热演化作用。在中生代晚期,祁连构造域的挤压作用导致盆地西缘发生强烈逆冲推覆、断裂活动及三次大规模的深部流体上涌。这些流体在构造应力作用下主要沿J/T、O/C不整合面运移至盆地中部。流体携带了大量深部热能,使奥陶系上部古地温升高约50℃,并将其中的碳酸盐岩生烃速度提高了至少32倍。最终,深部流体一方面导致奥陶系生烃量显著增加,另一方面也降低了天然气的散失,有助于其聚集成藏。深部流体使鄂尔多斯盆地中西部奥陶系天然气成因复杂化,另外它对深入探索铀和其它金属矿床的形成及盆地演化也具有重要意义。     

Retrieval of stratospheric O3 and NO2 vertical profiles using zenith scattered light observations

Daily zenith scattered light intensity observations were carried out in the morning twilight hours using home-made UV-visible spectrometer over the tropical station Pune (18‡31′, 73‡51′) for the years 2000–2003. These observations are obtained in the spectral range 462–498 nm for the solar zenith angles (SZAs) varying from 87‡ to 91.5‡. An algorithm has been developed to retrieve vertical profiles of ozone (O₃) and nitrogen dioxide (NO₂) from ground-based measurements using the Chahine iteration method. This retrieval method has been checked using measured and recalculated slant column densities (SCDs) and they are found to be well matching. O₃ and NO₂ vertical profiles have been retrieved using a set of their air mass factors (AMFs) and SCDs measured over a range of 87–91.5‡ SZA during the morning. The vertical profiles obtained by this method are compared with Umkehr profiles and ozonesondes and they are found to be in good agreement. The bulk of the column density is found near layer 20–25 km. Daily total column densities (TCDs) of O₃ and NO₂ along with their stratospheric and tropospheric counterparts are derived using their vertical profiles for the period 2000–2003. The total column, stratospheric column and tropospheric column amounts of both trace gases are found to be maximum in summer and minimum in the winter season. Increasing trend is found in column density of NO₂ in stratospheric, tropospheric and surface layers, but no trend is observed in O₃ columns for above layers during the period 2000–2003     

喜马拉雅造山带南北向裂谷的冷缩成因模型

长期以来,学者们普遍认为垂直于喜马拉雅造山带的南北向裂谷是东西向伸展的构造形迹。现代GPS观测数据却显示,喜马拉雅造山带东西位移(分)量很小,甚至为零。综合前人资料,喜马拉雅造山过程可划分为热造山(25~13Ma)及造山后(< 13Ma)冷却两个时期,热造山期具有受热膨胀,物质向外运移的特点,高喜马拉雅热隆挤出并触发各主要断裂(MCT、STD、GCT)活动,印度板块向北汇聚速率下降。造山后则表现为冷却收缩,前期构造-热活动停止或减弱,印度板块向北汇聚加速。研究认为,南北向裂谷与高喜马拉雅等冷却过程的东西向收缩。且被局限于东、西两个构造结之间有关。并据此建立了裂谷的冷缩成因模型,模型估值与地质事实很吻合。

Implications of the saltation–abrasion bedrock incision model for steady‐state river longitudinal profile relief and concavity

The saltation–abrasion model predicts rates of river incision into bedrock as an explicit function of sediment supply, grain size, boundary shear stress and rock strength. Here we use this experimentally calibrated model to explore the controls on river longitudinal profile concavity and relief for the simple but illustrative case of steady‐state topography. Over a wide range of rock uplift rates we find a characteristic downstream trend, in which upstream reaches are close to the threshold of sediment motion with large extents of bedrock exposure in the channel bed, while downstream reaches have higher excess shear stresses and lesser extents of bedrock exposure. Profile concavity is most sensitive to spatial gradients in runoff and the rate of downstream sediment fining. Concavity is also sensitive to the supply rate of coarse sediment, which varies with rock uplift rate and with the fraction of the total sediment load in the bedload size class. Variations in rock strength have little influence on profile concavity. Profile relief is most sensitive to grain size and amount of runoff. Rock uplift rate and rock strength influence relief most strongly for high rates of rock uplift. Analysis of potential covariation of grain size with rock uplift rate and rock strength suggests that the influence of these variables on profile form could occur in large part through their influence on grain size. Similarly, covariation between grain size and the fraction of sediment load in the bedload size class provides another indirect avenue for rock uplift and strength to influence profile form.

1966年邢台地区大震前小震的"密集-平静"特征及其初步解释

利用邢台地震台网的地震目录资料,研究了邢台地区强震前小震的“密集—平静”特点及其空间分布的立体图像,研究结果表明:(1)1966年3月邢台地区发生的几个6级以上强震前小震均有“密集—平静”现象,但明显程度随时间减小,部分4.5级地震前小震也有‘密集—平静“现象,但因出现在6级以上地震的余震活动背景上,情况比较复杂,相对平静期的长度,密集期中最大地震的震级均与相应主震震级之间有一定关系,一般来讲,主震震级越大,平静期越长,密集期中最大地震震级也越大。(2)3月22日7.2级主震前,小震的“密集—平静”过程在空间上有清晰的物理图像。3月8日6.8级地震发生后,3月20日在其余震区的两个端部中介质强度较弱的南西端首先达到破裂强度,发生一系列中小地震,对应于主震前的密集期。3月21日~22日主震前小震明显减少,是主震前的相对平静期,而且小震有由南西端向北东方向迁移的趋势。显示震区应力场在迅速地改变,应力由南西端向北东端进一步集中,并促使22日在北东端尖端部位失稳而发生6.7级及7.2级主震。3月26日6.2级强震前小震的“密集—平静”过程在空间上也有类似清晰的物理图像。此外,本文对大震前小震的“密集—平静”特点作初步的解释。     

四川盆地—大巴山结合带地壳构造特征:深反射地震约束的重磁解释

大巴山位于四川盆地北部、秦岭南缘,以发育大规模的中生代逆冲推覆构造为世人瞩目,其地壳尺度结构与构造特征对于理解扬子克拉通和华北克拉通的碰撞过程有重要意义.本文基于深反射地震剖面和宽角反射与折射地震数据的约束,结合地质与钻井资料,通过重磁场分析拟合解释,对四川盆地北部—大巴山地壳尺度的构造进行综合研究,建立了地壳断面结构与构造模型.模型显示,四川盆地北部基底和沉积盖层变形差异较大,且上下地壳具有解耦性,上地壳向北延伸至紫阳断裂一带;而下地壳与上地壳拆离,向北延伸远至安康断裂一带.研究区莫霍面起伏较大,自南向北先加深后抬升,在大巴山下出现Moho的构造叠置,这种现象源于大陆地块(扬子克拉通)下地壳向大巴山—秦岭造山带下的俯冲.类似的现象也出现在西昆仑山下,即塔里木盆地下地壳向西昆仑山下俯冲,俯冲板片前缘出现Moho的叠置.     

Experimental study on the effects of artificial bed roughness on turbidity currents over abrupt bed slope change

A series of experimental observations are presented in the current study to discuss the effects of artificial bed roughness on the turbidity current flowing in a rectangular channel with an abrupt change in bed slope.For this purpose,two different types of elements,sinusoidal and trapezoidal,with various heights and arrangements are considered as artificial bed roughness.A Vectrino velocity meter was used to measure the velocity and sediment concentration profiles.The effects of inlet sediment concentration on front velocity,body velocity,unit discharge,sediment concentration,and suspended load transport rate also were investigated.Accurate equations were developed for estimation of the velocity of a turbidity current over smooth and rough beds.The unexpected experimental results showed that unlike the effect of roughness height,a change in the roughness arrangement has no significant influence on the velocity of a turbidity current.Also,the effect of bed roughness on the front velocity of a denser current is more significant.
