太平洋东边界波浪输运

通过计算2000年涌浪指标(swell index)的全球分布,发现太平洋东边界赤道附近区域存在涌浪池.利用ECMWF再分析波浪资料,计算出2000年全球月平均波浪体积输运.比较2000年全球月平均波浪体积输运和2000年QUICKSCAT月平均风场,发现在赤道太平洋东边界涌浪池区域内的波浪输运方向和风向存在很大的差别,两者方向相差大约90°.这进一步验证了该地区涌浪池存在的真实性.研究发现,赤道太平洋东边界涌浪主要来源于北太平洋和南太平洋的西风带对应的海区.在涌浪池区域内分别在2.5°S和2.5°N取两条边界(边界起点为125°W,终点为美洲大陆西边界),计算通过这两条边界进入赤道区域涌浪的Stokes体积净输运量.结果表明,不同月份通过南、北两条边界波浪的净输运量与当月南、北太平洋西风带的风浪强度密切相关.同时指出了,涌浪的体积输运将会对大洋环流系统产生潜在的重要影响.     

东准噶尔卡拉麦里地区黄羊山岩体岩石学特征

在前人研究基础上,对黄羊山岩体取得了新的认识:萨北岩体和苏吉泉岩体只是黄羊山岩体的一个组成部分,并非单独岩体.黄羊山岩体寄主岩石划分为中粒黑云母碱长花岗岩、中粒角闪石碱长花岗岩、中粒钠铁闪石碱长花岗岩、中细粒钠铁闪石碱长花岗岩、细粒黑云母碱长花岗岩和细粒混合花岗岩(含石墨)6个单元.岩石学及矿物特征表明,岩体有从黑云母碱长花岗岩向钠铁闪石碱长花岗岩演化的趋势,可能是幔源重熔分异的碱性花岗岩(A型花岗岩),而闪长质微细粒包体及大量发育的闪长(玢)岩脉和辉绿(玢)岩脉提供了有力的佐证,初步研究认为黄羊山岩体形成于后碰撞张性环境,其就位与卡拉麦里断裂有关,其形成和演化标志了准噶尔地区显生宙幔源岩浆活动及其分异产物导致大陆地壳垂向生长过程.     

全球石油资源估计及对21世纪石油产量的预测

将地球沉积盖层作为统一的系统,对全球常规可采石油资源进行概率估计,并对21世纪末之前的全球石油产量进行预测。结果表明全球石油产量最有可能在2020—2030年间达到高峰,每年42～47亿吨。届时主要的产区将在波斯湾、西西伯利亚和东西伯利亚,上游部门的注意力将转向北极陆架。至少到2040年前,年产量将维持在42—45亿吨水平。     

大洋深海硫化物矿调查成就与研究问题

1概述 美国、法国和墨西哥《SIAMEKS》国际科考队曾于1978年在东太平洋隆起北纬21°处的考察过程中发现了硫化物矿。早在100多年（1875—1878）前,英国“挑战者”号调查船发现大洋中的铁锰结核和钴锰结壳及磷灰岩。在大洋中脊范围内发现新形式有用矿产-即同热液活动密切有关的硫化物矿,它与结核和结壳不同,不仅埋藏在海底表面,而且还产于大洋基底岩石中。     

Effects of wind waves of the Pacific westerly on the eastern Pacific wave transport

There exists a tongueshaped swelldominance pool known as Swell Pool (SP) in the Eastern Pacific region. The monthlymean wave transports (WT) for each month of 2000 is computed using the wave products of ECMWF reanalysis data. By comparing the 2000 monthlymean WT and monthlymean wind field from QUICKSCAT, large differences are found between the wave transport direction and the wind direction over the Eastern Pacific. This may serve as an evidence for the existence of the SP in this region. The work done in this study indicates that the sources of swell in the Tropical Eastern Pacific (TEP) are in the westerly regions of the Southern and Northern Pacific.     

A preliminary study of variations of the Changjiang Diluted Water between August of 1999 and 2006

A large area hypoxia has been already reported respectively by two interdisciplinary surveys off the Changjiang Estuary since summer of 1999 and 2006. The hypoxic zone shows distinct year-to-year variations. Observed oceanographic data are first analysized and reveal a big difference for the Changjiang Diluted Water (CDW) between these two periods. These great changes are related to the tremendous reduction of the freshwater discharge and variations of wind fields between these two years. It is also found that the monthly mean intrusion of Kuroshio and its branches has increased in the northern East China Sea (ECS), but decreased in the southern ECS in August of 2006 as compared with 1999 on the base of general circulation models. Then, the Regional Ocean Modelling Systems is applied to the East China Sea to evaluate the contributions and relative importance of impacts from the river discharge, wind forcing and open boundary data. Our simulations reproduce the phenomena that more fresh water extends northeastward in 2006 and forms a negative SSS anomaly to the northeast of the river mouth as compared with 1999, which is consistent with observations. The five group numerical tests suggest that the wind forcing dominates the CDW variations followed by the Kuroshio and its branches. The study implies important roles played by hydrodynamic processes on the variability of hypoxic zone in the study areas.     

The black water around the Changjiang (Yangtze) Estuary in the spring of 2003

The Changjiang (Yangtze) Estuary is located in the East China Sea shelf with shallow water. Affected by the tide mixing and the runoff of the Changjiang River and the Qiantang River, the turbidity is very high. Generally, the water-leaving radiance is high in the turbid water because of the large particle scattering. Based on the in-situ data and ocean color remote sensing data of SeaWiFS, it was found that there was a black water region with the normalized water-leaving radiances less than 0.5 mW/(cm2·μm2·...     

2007年西北太平洋热带气旋气候特征分析

本文通过对2007年西北太平洋热带气旋发生源地、频数、移动路径、强度等方面的分析,找出2007年西北太平洋热带气旋的特征,并对其大气环流进行了分析,结果表明:2007年西北太平洋热带气旋偏少、偏强,路径怪异.前期赤道东太平洋海温偏低,而西北太平洋副热带高压位置偏南、偏西,是2007年西北太平洋热带气旋偏少的主要原因.
