Linkage of deep sea rapid acidification process and extinction of benthic foraminifera in the deep sea at the Paleocene/Eocene transition

Ocean Drilling Program Leg 199 Site 1220 provides a continuous sedimentary section across the Paleocene/Eocene (P/E) transition in the carbonate‐bearing sediments on 56–57 Ma oceanic crust. The large negative δ¹³C shift in seawater is likely due to the disintegration of methane hydrate, which is expected to be rapidly changed to carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and well‐oxygenated seawater, leading to a reduction in deep‐sea pH. A pH decrease was very likely responsible for the emergence of agglutinated foraminiferal fauna as calcareous fauna was eliminated by acidification at the P/E transition at Site 1220. The absence of the more resistant calcareous benthic foraminifera and the presence of the planktonic foraminifera at Site 1220 is interesting and unique, which indicates that calcareous benthic foraminifera suffered greatly from living on the seafloor. Box model calculation demonstrates that, assuming the same mean alkalinity as today, pCO₂ must increase from 280 ppm to about 410 ppm for the calcite undersaturation in the deep ocean and for the oversaturation in the surface ocean during the P/E transition. The calculated increased pCO₂ coincides with paleo‐botanical evidence. The current global emission rate (～7.3 peta (10¹⁵) gC/y) of anthropogenic carbon input is approximately 30 times of the estimate at the P/E transition. The results at the P/E transition give an implication that the deep sea benthic fauna will be threatened in future in combination with ocean acidification, increased sea surface temperature and more stratified surface water.

利用粗糙集理论进行遥感分类信息提取

以辽宁省双台子河口湿地为研究对象,以Landsat 8和HJ-1-A/HJ-1-B的多时相遥感影像为数据源,根据研究区现状,将研究区分为旱地、芦苇、水田、碱蓬、混合植被、水面、滩涂、居民点、养殖塘九个类型.利用时间序列的归一化植被指数提取植被与非植被的分类阈值,采用粗糙集理论和多时相遥感影像,对植被和非植被分别进行分类规则的获取,建立了研究区决策树分类模型.为了进行精度评价,利用相同的训练点又进行了同样基于像元的最大似然法分类.最后利用混淆矩阵对上述两种方法进行了精度评估,基于粗糙集的决策树分类法与最大似然法总体分类精度分别为93.70%和91.62%,Kappa系数分别为0.92和0.90,两项指标值基于粗糙集理论法均比最大似然法有所提高.这为构建决策树分类模型进行湿地地表分类信息提取提供了一条新的研究思路.     

各向异性和非均质黏土粗糙地基承载力上限计算

通过构建一种网格状多刚性块破坏机制,利用上限法研究了黏土地基各向异性和非均质对粗糙条形基础地基承载力的影响。该破坏机制允许滑动面和速度矢量沿破坏区域过渡区的径向和切向发生变化,形成了更为精确的破坏机制和塑性流动速度场。根据上限定理得到各向异性和非均质性黏土上条形基础极限承载力的目标函数,将其转化为非线性规划问题,并通过编程对该计算模型进行求解。与已有研究成果对比分析表明,两者具有较好一致性,且优于现有同类方法。文中亦探讨了黏土地基非均质、各向异性以及其他相关参数对地基承载力的影响。

Shallow structure beneath the Central Volcanic Complex of Tenerife from new gravity data: Implications for its evolution and recent reactivation

We present a new local Bouguer anomaly map of the Central Volcanic Complex (CVC) of Tenerife, Spain, constructed from the amalgamation of 323 new high precision gravity measurements with existing gravity data from 361 observations. The new anomaly map images the high-density core of the CVC and the pronounced gravity low centred in the Las Cañadas caldera in greater detail than previously available. Mathematical construction of a sub-surface model from the local anomaly data, employing a 3D inversion based on “growing” the sub-surface density distribution via the aggregation of cells, enables mapping of the shallow structure beneath the complex, giving unprecedented insights into the sub-surface architecture. We find the resultant density distribution in agreement with geological and other geophysical data. The modelled sub-surface structure supports a vertical collapse origin of the caldera, and maps the headwall of the ca. 180 ka Icod landslide, which appears to lie buried beneath the Pico Viejo–Pico Teide stratovolcanic complex. The results allow us to put into context the recorded ground deformation and gravity changes at the CVC during its reactivation in spring 2004 in relation to its dominant structural building blocks. For example, the areas undergoing the most significant changes at depth in recent years are underlain by low-density material and are aligned along long-standing structural entities, which have shaped this volcanic ocean island over the past few million years.
