中国北方季风边缘区过去530年降水的时空变化及其驱动机制研究

中国北方季风边缘区位置的移动影响着整个西北地区的旱涝变化和生态建设的发展。树轮和历史文献记录可以为该地区过去几百年气候环境变化和季风变化提供重要的信息。本文选取了8条树轮序列结合31条中国历史文献记录和实测降水量资料, 重建了中国北方地区近530年的年降水量演化特征, 对比分析了不同特征时期400mm等降水量线空间位置的差异及其可能的驱动机制。结果表明, 在年际尺度上, 降水量最丰年400mm等降水量线位置都比近30年平均位置偏北, 而干旱事件时期400mm等降水量线位置比近30年平均位置更偏南, 且干旱时期的波动要比湿润年份的波动幅度更大; 在年代际尺度上, 最湿润10年和最干旱10年400mm等降水量线位置同样比最近30年偏北和偏南, 但是其空间位置的变化没有年际尺度显著。研究区降水量空间位移变化主要是受北大西洋涛动(NAO)和厄尔尼诺南方涛动(ENSO)的影响。

Contaminants still high in top-level carnivores in the Southern California Bight: levels of DDT and PCBs in resident and transient pinnipeds

Highly industrialized areas, such as the Southern California Bight, often have high levels of contaminants in marine sediments, which can cause chronic exposure to organisms long after their use has ceased. tDDT and tPCB were analyzed in the blubber of 145 stranded pinnipeds that died at local marine mammal centers between 1994 and 2006. Resident species (California sea lion and Pacific harbor seal) had significantly higher concentrations of tDDT and tPCB than the transient species (northern elephant seal). Adult female California sea lions had significantly lower concentrations of tDDT and tPCB than pups, yearlings, and adult males. Concentrations of both tDDT and tPCB in California sea lions significantly declined over time, but did not change in northern elephant seals. Current concentrations of tDDT and tPCB in California sea lions and harbor seals are among the highest values reported worldwide for marine mammals and exceed those reported to cause adverse health effects.     

南海北部海陆过渡带地壳结构的研究现状及展望

首先总结了前人在南海北部海陆过渡带获得的研究成果：由重磁异常、水深及卫星影像等资料推测滨海断裂带存在于南海北部海陆过渡地区：介绍了最近在南海北部海陆过渡地区开展的海陆地震联测试验,其结果显示有一个穿透整个地壳的低速破碎带发育于海陆过渡地区,推测它为滨海断裂带在速度上的表现,另外广泛分布于华南大陆的中地壳低速层在海陆过渡处也有较好发育;总结了天然地震层析成像在南海北部海陆过渡带的研究成果。最后结合目前的研究现状,指出了今后我们的研究方向：在逐步完善目前海陆地震联测试验的基础上,同时开展海陆过渡带的多道地震数据采集及地球化学研究：加强海陆过渡带的地震监测。进行震源机制解和人工地震与天然地震联合成像的研究。     

The rhyolitic–andesitic eruptive history of Cotopaxi volcano,Ecuador

At Cotopaxi volcano, Ecuador, rhyolitic and andesitic bimodal magmatism has occurred periodically during the past 0.5 Ma. The sequential eruption of rhyolitic (70–75% SiO₂) and andesitic (56–62% SiO₂) magmas from the same volcanic vent over short time spans and without significant intermingling is characteristic of Cotopaxi’s Holocene behavior. This study documents the eruptive history of Cotopaxi volcano, presenting its stratigraphy and geologic field relations, along with the relevant mineralogical and chemical nature of the eruptive products, in order to determine the temporal and spatial relations of this bimodal alternation. Cotopaxi’s history begins with the Barrancas rhyolite series, dominated by pumiceous ash flows and regional ash falls between 0.4 and 0.5 Ma, which was followed by occasional andesitic activity, the most important being the ample andesitic lava flows (∼4.1 km³) that descended the N and NW sides of the edifice. Following a ∼400 ka long repose without silicic activity, Cotopaxi began a new eruptive phase about 13 ka ago that consisted of seven rhyolitic episodes belonging to the Holocene F and Colorado Canyon series; the onset of each episode occurred at intervals of 300–3,600 years and each produced ash flows and regional tephra falls with DRE volumes of 0.2–3.6 km³. Andesitic tephras and lavas are interbedded in the rhyolite sequence. The Colorado Canyon episode (4,500 years BP) also witnessed dome and sector collapses on Cotopaxi’s NE flank which, with associated ash flows, generated one of the largest cohesive debris flows on record, the Chillos Valley lahar. A thin pumice lapilli fall represents the final rhyolitic outburst which occurred at 2,100 years BP. The pumices of these Holocene rhyolitic eruptions are chemically similar to those of older rhyolites of the Barrancas series, with the exception of the initial eruptive products of the Colorado Canyon series whose chemistry is similar to that of the 211 ka ignimbrite of neighboring Chalupas volcano. Since the Colorado Canyon episode, andesitic magmatism has dominated Cotopaxi’s last 4,400 years, characterized by scoria bomb and lithic-rich pyroclastic flows, infrequent lava flows that reached the base of the cone, andesitic lapilli and ash falls that were carried chiefly to the W, and large debris flows. Andesitic magma emission rates are estimated at 1.65 km³ (DRE)/ka for the period from 4,200 to 2,100 years BP and 1.85 km³ (DRE)/ka for the past 2,100 years, resulting in the present large stratocone.     

利用大地电磁技术揭示2016年1月21日青海门源MS6.4地震隐伏地震构造和孕震环境

2016年1月21日01时13分在青海省海北州门源县发生了M_S6.4地震,震中位置位于青藏高原东北缘地区祁连造山带内的祁连—海原断裂带冷龙岭断裂部分附近,震源深度约11.4 km,震源机制解显示该次地震为一次纯逆冲型地震.我们于2015年7—8月期间完成了跨过祁连造山带紧邻穿过2016年1月21日青海门源M_S6.4地震震中区的大地电磁探测剖面（DKLB-M）和古浪地震大地电磁加密测量剖面（HYFP）.本文对所采集到的数据进行了先进的数据处理和反演工作,获得了二维电性结构图.结合青藏高原东北缘地区最新获得的相对于欧亚板块2009—2015年GPS速度场分布特征,1月21日门源M_S6.4地震主震与余震分布特征以及其他地质与地球物理资料等,探讨了门源M_S6.4地震的发震断裂,断裂带空间展布、延伸位置,分析了门源M_S6.4地震孕震环境与地震动力学背景等以及祁连山地区深部构造特征等相关问题.所获结论如下：2016年门源M_S6.4地震震源区下存在较宽的SW向低阻体,推测冷龙岭断裂下方可能形成了明显的力学强度软弱区,这种力学强度软弱区的存在反映了介质的力学性质并促进了地震蠕动、滑移和发生;冷龙岭北侧断裂可能对门源M_S6.4地震主震和余震的发生起控制作用,而该断裂为冷龙岭断裂在青藏高原北东向拓展过程中产生的伴生断裂,表现出逆冲特征;现今水准场、重力场、GPS速度场分布特征以及大地电磁探测结果均表明祁连—海原断裂带冷龙岭断裂部分为青藏高原东北缘地区最为明显的一条边界断裂,受控于青藏高原北东向拓展和阿拉善地块的阻挡作用,冷龙岭断裂附近目前正处于青藏高原北东向拓展作用最强烈、构造转化最剧烈的地区,这种动力学环境可能是门源M_S6.4地震发生的最主要原因,与1927年古浪M_S8.0地震和1954年民勤M_S7.0地震相似,2016年门源M_S6.4地震的发生同样是青藏高原北东向拓展过程中的一次地震事件.     

新疆北天山地区井水位同震响应特征分析研究

通过整理新疆北天山地区的水位观测资料,分析了2011年后发生在北天山地区的4次近场6级地震所引起的水位同震响应特征。结果显示,井孔对于近场地震的同震响应主要表现为振荡—阶变复合型、阶变型,同一地震对于不同的井孔可能呈现出不同的响应特征,同一井孔对于不同的近场地震也可能具有不同映震效果,水位对近场地震的同震响应并无固定的响应特征,而是受到多重因素的控制作用,而震后效应的各不一致,则显示出不同地震对于各个井孔附近区域应力场调整的能力。

Bacterioplankton dynamics along the gradient from highly eutrophic Pearl River Estuary to oligotrophic northern South China Sea in wet season: implication for anthropogenic inputs

Bacterioplankton abundance (BA) and biomass (BB) from the eutrophic Pearl River Estuary (PRE) to the oligotrophic northern South China Sea (NSCS) were studied in the wet season. BA was significantly higher (p < 0.05) in PRE (12.51 ± 3.52 × 10⁸ cells L⁻¹), than in the continental shelf neritic province (CSNP, 4.95 ± 2.21 × 10⁸ cells L⁻¹) and in the deep oceanic province (OP, 3.16 ± 1.56 × 10⁸ cells L⁻¹). Nutrient-replete PRE waters (DIN > 100 μM and PO₄ > 1 μM) resulted in high chl a and BB, whereas nutrient-depleted offshore waters (DIN <5 μM and PO₄ < 0.5 μM) had low biomass. Temperature (>26 °C) was not the controlling factor of BA. BB was significantly correlated with chl a biomass both in PRE and NSCS. The bacteria to phytoplankton biomass (BB/PB) ratio increased clearly along the gradient from near-shore PRE (0.15) to offshore CSNP (0.93) and deep OP (2.75), indicating the important role of small cells in the open ocean compared to estuarine and coastal zones.
