Quantitative reconstruction of the lake water paleotemperature of Daihai Lake, Inner Mongolia, China and its significance in paleoclimate

By measuring Sr/Ca ratios of the ostracod shells (Limnocthere cf. inopinata) in sediments of the Daihai Lake, and combined with Sr²⁺/Ca²⁺ ratios of the lake water, this paper obtained paleosalinity of the lake water. Vaporizing experiment of the lake water in laboratory showed that there was a quantitative relationship between salinity and oxygen isotope. Using this relationship, oxygen isotope values of the paleo-lake water were calculated. By measuring the oxygen isotope of the authigenic carbonate in the lake’s sediments, and in combination with the oxygen isotope values of the paleo-lake water, the paleotemperature of the lake water was calculated. Finally, based on these proxies, the paleoclimate in the lake basin was explored.     

Proglacial Sediment—Landform Associations of a Polythermal Glacier: Storglaciären, Northern Sweden

Mapping and laboratory analysis of the sediment—landform associations in the proglacial area of polythermal Storglaciären, Tarfala, northern Sweden, reveal six distinct lithofacies. Sandy gravel, silty gravel, massive sand and silty sand are interpreted as glaciofluvial in origin. A variable, pervasively deformed to massive clast‐rich sandy diamicton is interpreted as the product of an actively deforming subglacial till layer. Massive block gravels, comprising two distinctive moraine ridges, reflect supraglacial sedimentation and ice‐marginal and subglacial reworking of heterogeneous proglacial sediments during the Little Ice Age and an earlier more extensive advance. Visual estimation of the relative abundance of these lithofacies suggests that the sandy gravel lithofacies is of the most volumetric importance, followed by the diamicton and block gravels. Sedimentological analysis suggests that the role of a deforming basal till layer has been the dominant factor controlling glacier flow throughout the Little Ice Age, punctuated by shorter (warmer and wetter climatic) periods where high water pressures may have played a more important role. These results contribute to the database that facilitates discrimination of past glacier thermal regimes and dynamics in areas that are no longer glacierized, as well as older glaciations in the geological record.     

高山增水效应及其水资源意义

根据高山上云、雾、雨、雪、径流等水资源丰富现象，分析了高山冰川、植被、地形等与汽-水作用关系，提出高山增水效应概念和高山区水资源开发与保护的新思路。高大山体及其造成的垂向对流、高山冰川和高山植被共同作用形成了高山增水效应，并形成良性增水系统。山体愈高大，增水效应愈明显。对内陆干旱地区开发利用更多的高山水资源具有意义。     

黄土湿陷性的微结构不平衡吸力成因论

分析了黄土粒间吸力的基本特性及其湿陷的微观过程,探讨了黄土在应力状态作用下由于浸水增湿而产生的微结构单元体滑移动力和阻力随饱和度、上覆土压力的变化规律,提出了微结构与广义吸力综合效应的湿陷性控制机理---微结构不平衡吸力成因论及其定量模型,从理论上分析了湿陷性与增湿水量、压力及深度的关系,揭示了土湿陷效应的内在规律。文中认为,湿陷过程就是水的楔入导致小孔隙广义吸力的逐渐丧失和大孔隙湿吸力的逐渐增大引起的微结构重建动力与重建阻力间的动态对抗过程。最后,讨论了湿陷的基本条件及影响因素。

慕士塔格峰洋布拉克冰川消融的观测分析

2001年7月4日至8月8日,在慕士塔格峰西侧的洋布拉克冰川海拔4600～4460m区间的冰舌段,进行了短期的冰面消融观测.慕士塔格峰冰川区暖期短,冰面强消融时期比较集中.观测期间,冰面纯消融厚度为640～1260mm水层,日平均消融厚度达26～39.6mm,推算冰舌区年消融量不低于1700～2000mm,比青藏高原内部的冰川消融强烈的多.7月21-22日出现最大消融值,在海拔4460m和4600m,日消融量分别为144.5mm和59.5mm.冰面消融随海拔上升而减小,日平均消融梯度:在裸露冰区为0.40～0.55mm·10m-1;在表碛覆盖区为0.21～3.53mm·10m-1,变幅较裸露冰区大.按裸露冰区的消融梯度计算出海拔4800m处的日平均消融量,和过去的研究资料比较,2001年冰面日平均消融量较1987年和1960年的消融量大,反映出慕士塔格峰区影响冰川消融的气候与全球气候变暖的特点是一致的.     

辽河盆地东部凹陷热历史及构造—热演化特征

根据辽河盆地东部凹陷大地热流测量和镜质体反射率数据,恢复了该区的热历史,结果表明:东部凹陷热流呈现古热流高现今热流低的变化特征,沙河街组三段沉积期到东营组沉积期(距今43～25Ma)盆地热流为66～82mWm²,现今热流值为47～70mWm²。构造沉降史分析显示,盆地经历了早期的裂谷阶段(距今43～25Ma)和后期的热沉降阶段,裂谷阶段包含了两个裂谷亚旋回。盆地现今较低的大地热流和较高的古热流及典型的裂谷型构造沉降样式为东部凹陷的构造—热演化提供了重要认识。     

0．7Ma以来的念青唐古拉山脉隆升过程——来自冰川剥蚀作用的证据

通过对念青唐古拉山冰碛地层划分及冰碛物同位素测年，发现最早一期冰碛物形成于0．7～0．6MaBP，指示自中更新世以来念青唐古拉山脉开始隆升，主峰地区发生了大规模的冰川剥蚀作用，形成了大面积分布的冰碛高平台；0．2～0．14MaBP念青唐古拉山又快速隆升，并堆积了刚刚伸出各大沟谷口的高侧碛；0．07～0．03MaBP念青唐古拉山再次小规模隆起，形成各大沟谷内的侧碛和终碛垄；0．01Ma BP还有小规模冰川活动。念青唐古拉山主峰地区的冰川剥蚀作用反映出的山脉隆升过程，可较好地与青藏高原的隆起过程相对比，它应是青藏高原隆升的响应。
