湖泊记录中的古气候和古环境指标及其地质灾害信息

笔者在简略论述反映古气候、古环境的多种代用指标的基础上,讨论其在揭示地质灾害信息方面的意义,并分析从中提取地质灾害信息的方法和思路。认为在沉积物粒度判别基础上,沉积物表现出的较低δ¹⁸O值,较低δ¹³C值和较低碳酸盐含量以及较高的有机质含量特征可能指示了地质灾害方面的信息。     

中俄朝毗邻地区古吉黑造山带岩石及年代记录

新近查明的岩石及年代记录揭示,中俄朝邻域古吉黑造山带的基底是由约1000Ma的构造、岩浆、变质、成矿等耦合事件拼接的Rodinia超大陆的部分所组成.阿森特-兴凯期造山作用代表了本区对Rodinia的裂解（约始于900Ma）至冈瓦纳-劳伦超大陆拼合（545~525Ma）的积极响应,并属古亚洲洋的重要发展阶段.加里东构造旋回（440~425Ma）,早华力西构造旋回（350Ma）,晚华力西-早印支构造旋回（250~230Ma）,完成了古亚洲洋向古特提斯洋（海）的转换,实现了古欧亚大陆的形成,是对Pangea古陆聚合的积极响应.特别是早印支旋回,形成了"陆陆拼贴-陆内俯冲-造山带崩塌"连续过程的完整的岩石及年代记录.     

上新世湖相纹泥及其环境信息与时间标尺记录

纹泥反映了湖相沉积物中特有的沉积韵律,是气候的季节变化和年际变化的产物。山西榆社张村地区上新世晚期的湖心相沉积中发育了极为完好的纹泥剖面。纹泥深浅相间形成清晰的纹理,分别代表夏秋和冬春。一深一浅组成一对,代表一年。纹泥层的单层厚度平均为0．12～0．25mm／条,薄者＜0．1mm／条,厚者可达0．3mm／条。暗色纹泥层的厚度大于浅色纹泥层。暗色纹泥的有机质含量丰富,木本植物孢粉占优势,同时CaO的含量低;浅色纹泥恰好相反。湖相纹泥具有建立高分辨率时间标尺和环境演化序列的特殊优越条件。     

青藏高原兹格塘错沉积记录的全新世水位变化事件及其原因初步研究

兹格塘错是一个内陆封闭型湖泊,位于藏北高原腹地,处于西南季风作用边缘地带。由于流域内无冰川分布,湖泊补给主要靠大气降水,因此水体的扩张与收缩能够直接反映西南季风的变化。半干旱气候地区湖泊沉积物碳酸盐含量能够敏感地反映水体的扩张与收缩。兹格塘错沉积物碳酸盐含量高,与可溶盐(氯离子与硫酸根离子)含量变化结合能更好地揭示水体的演化阶段。分析结果表明,在9.3～8.9calkaBP、8.3～7.8calkaBP、5.0～4.7calkaBP、4.0～3.8calkaBP和3.1～2.7calkaBP碳酸盐含量出现大幅度下降,指示湖泊淡化、水位升高。但在3.8calkaBP左右碳酸盐含量和可溶盐(氯离子与硫酸根离子)含量同时出现峰值,指示出湖泊水体盐度升高、水位出现下降;近1calkaBP以来,碳酸盐与可溶盐含量都呈现逐渐下降趋势,表明湖泊水体逐渐淡化、水位缓慢上升的过程。但近100a来可溶盐含量上升,指示出湖泊水体的不断浓缩和水位下降过程,这和近百年的气候暖干化过程是一致的。兹格塘错沉积岩心碳酸盐含量全新世以来5次极低事件,有力地证明青藏高原西南季风在全新世期间的不稳定性。

Subsurface radar sounding of the martian polar cap: radiative transfer approach

The problem of subsurface radar sounding of the martian polar caps [Ilyushin, 2004. Martian northern polar cap: layering and possible implications for radar sounding. Planet. Space Sci. 52, 1195–1207] is considered from the point of view of incoherent radiative transfer theory. Since it has been previously shown that the radar signal field within the polar cap has diffuse structure, there is a need for a statistical approach to the problem. Radiative transfer theory, which is now well developed, seems to be the most appropriate formalism for this approach.Several physical models of polar caps have been formulated. The asymptotic solutions for all proposed models are derived here. In the present paper only the case of orbital ground penetrating radar is considered, because it is of great interest in relationship to currently developed radar experiments. In principle, the approach is believed to be applicable to a wide class of short pulse and compressed chirp radar experiments, including both orbital and landed instruments and media more complicated than a simple plane parallel geometry. This work, however, is postponed to future papers.Techniques for retrieval of physical properties of polar caps from the radar measurements are proposed. From the observational data, the macroscopic parameters of the medium appearing in radiative transfer theory, i.e. the single scattering albedo and volume extinction coefficient can be estimated. These estimates put certain constraints on the physical parameters of the medium model introduced in the paper. With some additional information, known a priori or from other observations, these estimates can be used to retrieve physically meaningful information, for example, the average content of impurities in the ice.     

A stochastic model of sedimentation

A mathematical model is presented which describes the origin of the earth's geological record in terms of a stochastic process involving random events of sedimentation and erosion. The model yields quantitative predictions of the percentages of the earth's land area in which sediments of one geological period directly overlie those of any given earlier period. It also predicts the total amount of sediment dating from each geological period, and the percentage of the earth's surface marked by outcrops of this sediment. These computed quantities are shown to correlate well with corresponding quantities derived from empirical investigation.     

从神话、传说与文字记录中探索中国活火山喷发的信息

火山喷发文字记录资料的考证可以给出历史上火山喷发的最为准确的时间限定，对喷发过程、灾害效应也都可给出极为详细、准确的措施。长白山天池火山喷发的满语资料是除了汉语、朝语之处另一种极为重要的资料来源，目前已从有关满语神话传说中得到了若干有重要意义的火山与火山学信息。本文列出了3类、14条天池火山喷发的神话与传说，从中可以得知数千年以来天池火山发生过多次猛烈的与温和的周期性的喷发。天池火山喷发与火山泥石流、喷发后洪水泛滥有密切关系，泛滥物波及到距离天池火山460km以过的嫩江流域及珲春一带。在中国近代史上还有若干次火山喷发记录，经考察较为确定的1951年昆仑山西部于田县卡尔达西火山喷发是一次地下岩浆上侵、地表汽爆炸与喷发的火山喷发事件。     

Facies system of the Eastern Barents Sea since the last glaciation to present

Twenty-two sediment cores raised from the central and eastern parts of the Barents Sea have been studied to reconstruct the evolution of the facies system since the Late Weichselian glaciation. Multiproxy records reveal four lithostratigraphic units, which reflect major development stages of paleoenvironments. Age control is provided by 23 AMS ¹⁴C dates for Holocene sections of four cores. Continental moraine deposits of the last glaciation are overlain by proximal glaciomarine facies of the initial deglaciation phase. During this phase, the Barents Sea ice sheet detached from the ground resulting in seawater penetration into troughs, iceberg calving, deposition of IRD and fine-grained glacier meltwater load in newly formed marine basins. The main deglaciation phase is characterized by pulsed sedimentation from various gravity flows resulting in accumulation of distal glaciomarine facies comprising laminated clay and sand sequences with minor IRD. Redistribution of fine-grained suspended matter by bottom currents and brine-induced nepheloid flows combined with biogenic processes and minor ice rafting caused facies diversity of the Holocene marine sediments. The Holocene facies of shelf depressions reflect rather high, but variable productivity responding to climate changes and variations of Atlantic water inflow into the Barents Sea.     

中国绒扇藻属(钙扇藻科Udoteaceae,绿藻门 Chlorophyta)的新种和新记录

绒扇藻属(Avrainvillea)藻体广泛分布于热带、亚热带海洋，尤其盛产于珊瑚礁上。因此，该属种类的分布在很大程度上受海区的限制。绒扇藻属的主要特征是藻体深绿色，褐绿色或黑褐色，基部是由假根状丝体相互交织，构成固着器，固着在礁石上。叶柄单生或具有多次分裂。叶片单个或多个，形状不一，多数为扇形，长圆形，肾形到扁压。藻体不钙化，通常黄色或褐色。二叉状分枝，基部常常缢缩，似念珠状或念珠状。皮层丝体无明显分化或具假皮层。关于绒扇藻属海藻的分类研究，至今为止，已发现23个种。 关于中国绒扇藻属的研究，最早是C.K.Tseng(曾呈奎)于1938年在“海南岛海产绿藻研究Ⅱ”中首次报道了两种绒扇藻，即直立绒扇藻Avrainvillea erecta (Berkeley) A. Gepp et E.S.Gepp和裂片绒扇藻A.lacerata J. Agardh，而后在1983年，在曾呈奎主编的《Common Seaweeds of China》一书中，报道了上述种类，并将其产地扩大到西沙群岛。1991年，陆保仁等在“南沙群岛海区的褐藻和绿藻研究I”中，第三次报道了裂片绒扇藻，将其产地扩大到南沙群岛。最近，作者在研究中国绒扇藻属的标本时，除了己经报道的两种外，又发现该属的1个新种(西沙绒扇藻Avrainvillea xishaensis Tseng， Dong et Lu sp. nov.)和3个新记录[模糊绒扇藻A.obscura (C.Agardh)J. Agardh，和氏绒扇藻A.hollenbergii Trono，群栖绒扇藻A.amadelpha (Montagne)A. Gepp et E.S. Gepp。至今共发现了6个种，其标本均存放在中国科学院海洋研究所植物标本室。
