青藏高原东部雀儿山地区新近纪隆升速率探讨——来自雀儿山花岗岩体磷灰石裂变径迹证据

通过青藏高原东部川西地区雀儿山花岗岩体磷灰石裂变径迹分析,新获得了4个磷灰石裂变径迹年龄值,分别为4. 9±0. 3Ma、6. 2±0. 5 Ma、7. 2±0. 4 Ma和7. 3±0. 7 Ma。运用径迹年龄-地形高差法计算出雀儿山花岗岩体新近纪的隆升速率,为0. 15～2 mm/a,平均隆升速率为0. 78mm/a。隆升速率在每个阶段有所不同,但呈现出一种快速隆升→缓慢隆升的过程,为整个青藏高原东缘的隆升过程提供了约束条件。     

Use of the magnetic,geochemical, and sedimentary records in establishing paleoclimate change in the environment of Sebkha: Case of the Sebkha Mhabeul in southeastern Tunisia

In this study, we explored the evidence of late Holocene climate changes in southern Tunisia, examining extreme events of flood and sandstorm sedimentary succession records, in Sebkha Mhabeul. A sediment-derived climatic proxy was inferred from a 93.5-cm-deep core (Mh1), whose dating by tephrochronology has already been achieved in previous works. Multiple geochemical, sedimentological, magnetic susceptibility, and quartz grain microtexture proxies were used to determine the shifts in regional climatic conditions. The Sebkha core captured sensitive changes in the precipitation/evaporation (P/E) balance by adjustments in salinity, and is especially valuable for reconstructing variability over centennial timescales. The Sebkha Mhabeul area showed higher salinity during the Roman Warm Period (RWP: 2100–1400 cal yr BP), the Medieval Warm Period (MWP: 1000–600 cal yr BP) and the present era, and generally lower salinity during the Dark Ages (DA: 1400-1000 cal yr BP) and the Little Ice Age (LIA: 600-200 cal yr BP).In southeastern Tunisia, the hydrological behavior was sometimes consistent with the flood activities in the eastern Mediterranean, and sometimes contemporaneous with the flood pulsations of the western Mediterranean.     

丹江断裂东段第四纪活动性及地震地质涵义

丹江口地区地震地质因修建丹江水库而得到深入研究,但针对断裂进行的系统性研究较少。通过对丹江断裂东段进行1：1万大比例条带状活动断裂填图,综合采用地质地貌调查、岩样年龄测试、地质钻探、浅层地震勘探等多种手段进行研究,认为：1）丹江断裂东段第四纪以来累积左旋走滑量在250~500 m之间,上更新统地层垂直断距为10~20 m;2）断裂最新活动时代为晚更新世,活动性质以由NE向SW的逆冲为主,兼具有左旋走滑分量;3）断裂活动性由山地向盆地迁移。丹江断裂晚更新世以来活动表明,南襄盆地西缘活动性较强。该认识可为进一步评估丹江口地区乃至南襄盆地西缘的地震构造环境提供依据。

缢蛏(Sinonovacula constricta)心率Arrhenius拐点温度(ABT)及其与生长性状相关和通径分析

运用一种无损伤性的生物心跳参数红外监测方法,记录分析了96只缢蛏个体在22—38°C温度变化范围内波形特征和心率数据,依据阿伦尼乌斯方程直线拟合求得每个个体心率的阿伦尼乌斯拐点温度(Arrheniusbreaktemperatures,ABT)指标,并进一步分析了缢蛏心率ABT与其生长性状的相关关系。结果表明:缢蛏心跳在温度上升过程中不断变化, 22—34°C范围内可采集获得心脏搏动的稳定波形,且心跳速度在前期呈现随温度的上升而加快,到后期随温度上升而减弱,平均心率31°C达峰值为33.65BMP,同时缢蛏个体之间的心率差异明显,22°C时个体间差异最大,范围在13.90—27.95BMP,平均心率为19.66BMP,变异系数达14.06%,26—31°C时个体间的差异相对较小,但变异系数也均在8.5%以上;缢蛏所有个体中心率ABT最小值为29.74°C,最大值31.86,平均值为31.02°C。建立了缢蛏心率ABT受生长性状影响的最优回归方程。壳宽对缢蛏心率ABT的直接负作用最强,直接通径系数为–0.6895,而壳长对心率ABT直接通径系数尽管只有为0.3959,但它还通过壳高、壳宽间接发挥作用(间接通径系数分别为0.221 8,–0.194 1),因而总的影响最大(相关系数为0.423 6)。     

用自然伽马测井数据估算桑托斯盆地的地层生热率

岩石生热率是研究地球内热的一个重要的参数。本文根据自然伽马与岩石生热率的关系,利用盆地4口钻井的自然伽马测井曲线,计算出桑托斯盆地主要岩石或矿物及地层的生热率。本文统计了2964个自然伽马测井数据值,主要岩石或矿物的生热率从大到小依次为：泥岩、砂岩、页岩、玄武岩、石灰岩、硬石膏和盐岩;盆地地层的生热率随深度增加显著降低,生热率体现出受控于岩性变化的特征。以S1井为例,根据岩石生热率和热流的关系,计算出盆地中各个组的生热率,Marambaia组、Itajai-Acu组、Itanhaem组、Ariri组、Guaratiba群、Camboriu组生热率分别是1.36±0.16μW/m3、1.52±0.15μW/m3、1.30±0.3μW/m3、0.46±0.18μW/m3、0.64±0.23μW/m3、0.37±0.07μW/m3,盆地沉积地层产生的热量占表层大地热流的13.62%,因此沉积地层具有一定的产热潜力,对区域有机质的成熟度有一定的影响。建立了岩石圈分层生热模型,其中地壳热流贡献为15.38mW/m2,占表层大地热流的30.76%,地幔热流贡献值为34.62mW/m2,地壳和地幔的热流比例为0.44,具有“冷壳热幔”的特征。     

Meltwater discharge during the Holocene from the Wilkes subglacial basin revealed by beryllium isotope analysis of marine sediments

Understanding Antarctic Ice Sheet dynamics related to global climate change is of scientific and societal interest as the future behaviour of the ice sheet under the currently changing climate is unknown. We present beryllium‐10 (¹⁰Be) analysis of a high‐resolution marine sediment core from the Adélie Basin near the eastern Wilkes Land margin, which is susceptible to marine ice sheet instability due to the low‐lying nature and down‐sloping trough of the Wilkes Subglacial Basin. Combined with a newly constructed age model using compound specific radiocarbon dates, the data reveal three events associated with high meteoric ¹⁰Be at ca. ~10 ka, ca. ~6.5 ka and from ca. ~4 ka. We interpret these high meteoric ¹⁰Be events to be derived from the deposition of ¹⁰Be released from the ice sheet during meltwater discharge. In particular, the shift to higher meteoric ¹⁰Be concentration at~4 ka may correspond to changes in climate patterns at this time. Copyright © 2019 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
