闽东南大陆边缘构造特征及泉州海外大震构造环境分析

闽东南大陆边缘构造活动，自晚更新世以来，断裂活动以继承性差异升降作为主要特点，本文分析了１６０４年１２月２９日泉州海外８级大震与该区断裂活动的关系，并对该次大震震源断层面错动方式进行了讨论。     

山东沂沭裂谷系含金斑岩铜矿床成矿地质特征

沂沐裂谷是中国东部呈扇形展布的大陆裂谷系,从晚侏罗至白垩世裂谷岩浆活动强烈,发育了一套碱性、钙碱性火山建造,尤以中生代钙碱性火山活动具有特色,并常常形成许多巨大的古火山机体,本文通过对产于古火山机体中两个含金斑岩铜岩床研究,初步得出其主要成矿地质特征。     

我国首次发现的碳氢钠石

碳氢钠石是一种无水碱金属碳酸盐矿物,最初发现于美国的绿河盆地。一九八二年,在我国河南省泌阳凹陷首次发现。该矿物的化学成分是Na_2CO_3和NaHCO_3,分子式是:Na_2CO_3·3NaHCO_3。该矿物晶体呈板状,无色透明,主要产在重碳钠盐组成的碱矿层中。经测试确定,该矿物属二轴晶负光性,主折射率:Ng=1.531,Nm=1.524,Np=1.435,2V=31.45°;晶胞参数:a=10.046,b=15.633,c=3.492,a=92°8′,β=95。42′,γ=108°34′;最强的粉晶衍射线有:3.70(35),2.97(100),2.67(41),2.213(60);主要的红外光谱吸收带是:2616,1692,1662,1359,1048,1018,839,677cm_(-1)。据碳氢钠石的产状和共生组合特征,该矿物产于富钠,高P_(CO_2)的碳酸盐型内陆盐湖,是较高温度条件下快速蒸发的产物。     

土-结构动力相互作用对结构控制的影响

本文研究了土-结构动力相互作用对采取不同控制措施的结构控制效果的影响。文中首先建立了主动调谐质量阻尼器(ATMD)、半主动磁流变阻尼器(MR)和被动多重调谐质量阻尼器(MTMD)等三种结构控制措施在时域中的控制算法和控制律，然后基于子结构法，采用间接边界元方法，通过傅里叶变换，推导了分别安装三种结构控制措施的受控结构在频域中的运动方程，数值仿真分析了某36层高层建筑的地震反应及其控制效果。结果表明，当采用ATMD或MTMD控制时，考虑土-结构动力相互作用后结构地震反应有所减小；当采用MR控制时，考虑土-结构动力相互作用后结构地震反应有很大程度的减小。由此看来，在设计软土地基上高层结构的结构控制措施时，不考虑土-结构动力相互作用对结构控制效果的影响是偏于安全的。     

A crustal seismic velocity model for the UK, Ireland and surrounding seas

A regional model of the 3-D variation in seismic P -wave velocity structure in the crust of NW Europe has been compiled from wide-angle reflection/refraction profiles. Along each 2-D profile a velocity–depth function has been digitised at 5 km intervals. These 1-D velocity functions were mapped into three dimensions using ordinary kriging with weights determined to minimise the difference between digitised and interpolated values. An analysis of variograms of the digitised data suggested a radial isotropic weighting scheme was most appropriate. Horizontal dimensions of the model cells are optimised at 40 × 40 km and the vertical dimension at 1 km. The resulting model provides a higher resolution image of the 3-D variation in seismic velocity structure of the UK, Ireland and surrounding areas than existing models. The construction of the model through kriging allows the uncertainty in the velocity structure to be assessed. This uncertainty indicates the high density of data required to confidently interpolate the crustal velocity structure, and shows that for this region the velocity is poorly constrained for large areas away from the input data.     

Strike slip faulting inferred from offsetting of drainages: Lower Narmada basin, western India

The detailed analysis of landforms, drainages and geology of the area between the rivers Amaravati and Karjan was carried out in order to understand the tectonic history of the lower Narmada basin. Movement along the various faults in the area was studied on the basis of the drainage offsetting. Horizontal offsetting of stream channels was found quite demonstrable along NNW-SSE trending transverse faults. Tectonic landforms including systematic deflection of stream channels and ridges, alignment of fault scarp and saddles and displacement in the basement rocks and alluvial deposits show that the area is undergoing active deformation driven by the NSF system.     

Geomorphic constraints on the active tectonics of southern Taiwan

Taiwan is a region of rapid active tectonics, yet the study of the tectonic processes that shape the interior of the island is difficult due to the high rates of erosion and dense vegetation. We use digital topography to look for indications of active deformation preserved in the local geomorphology. In particular, anomalies in the regional pattern of drainage are used to infer zones of enhanced tectonic activity. The apparent anticlockwise rotation of major river systems in plan view indicates the presence of a diffuse zone of left-lateral shear running down the southeastern side of Taiwan. Asymmetries in the catchments of individual drainage basins show the influence of varying rates of uplift across southern Taiwan, with the most rapid uplift close to Taitung at the indentation point of the Luzon arc with the Chinese continental margin. Our interpretations, though based predominantly on remote-sensing observations, are consistent with the available field evidence. This study demonstrates the usefulness of drainage basins as tectonic markers in the quantification of regional strain and uplift, which may have wider applicability in other deforming parts of the world.
