不均衡的跨国人口流动：对美墨移民历程与政策的思考

美国是全球最大的移民接收国,墨西哥是美国最大的移民来源国,特殊的地缘关系和巨大的发展差距使众多墨西哥人移民美国。墨裔移民为美国提供了充足的劳动力,在美墨边境地区,移民集聚带动了两国边境地区的发展。但族裔矛盾始终是美国主要社会问题之一,特别是“9·11”事件后,少数族裔和非法移民问题加剧美国社会分裂和对立,成为美国国内政治博弈的焦点。基于区域地缘关系的视角来看,美国与墨西哥之间长期不对等的国际关系决定了跨国移民的流入状态和生存境遇,也是美国族群矛盾的主要原因之一。移民问题政治化将持续强化墨裔移民政策的不确定性,使移民个人与家庭面临更大的融入困难。     

TRACKING THE BABY BOOM,THE BABY BUST,AND THE ECHO GENERATIONS: HOW AGE COMPOSITION REGULATES US MIGRATION*

US regional and state migration data from the 1940s–80s, when members of the baby boom generation aged into their years of peak labor force mobility, suggest ways in which changing age composition regulates geographical mobility and interregional migration. Labor supply pressure plays a key role in the dynamics of the national migration system. A “delayed mobility” effect in the 1980s similar to the delayed fertility of the baby boom cohorts appears to be a result of the depressed rates of mobility experienced by members of this generation when they flooded regional labor markets with record numbers of entrants in the 1970s. Recent temporal shifts in age-specific volumes of interregional migration help predict the future pace of migration based upon the projected age distribution of the nation.     

温度、浓度对流体中氟钛络合物水解的影响:对深部地质过程中钛元素活动的制约

Ti是自然界中丰度最高的高场强元素(HFSE),其主要赋存矿物——金红石的溶解度决定了俯冲带HFSE的活动与循环。而富氟流体被认为是影响Ti等HFSE能否活化、迁移的重要因素。本文对不同浓度的氟钛络合物(K2Ti F6)在100MPa压力和200~500℃温度下的稳定性进行了研究,结果显示其在热液条件下发生显著水解,水解程度与温度和初始浓度密切相关,即温度越高、初始浓度越低,则水解程度越剧烈。对实验数据进行拟合,首次获得了K2Ti F6的表观水解常数与温度的关系式:-ln K=(8972±788)/T-(4.16428±1.40362),其中获得的热力学参数为:ΔrHΘ=74.59±6.55k J/mol,ΔrSΘ=34.62±11.67J/(mol·K)。同时,运用上述获得的关系式将温度推广到俯冲带条件,计算了金红石溶解度和流体中Ti的最大迁移量之间的关系。结果显示,当金红石的溶解度大于1000μg/m L时,富F流体能有效迁移的Ti大于1μg/m L;随着金红石溶解度的增加,Ti的有效迁移百分比也逐渐增大,但俯冲流体中Ti的最大迁移量可能不超过6700μg/m L,比之前的预计要低得多。本文的研究证实了富F流体能最大程度活化并迁移Ti等HFSE。其中,对于岩浆-热液体系而言,F主要通过在岩浆中预富集,然后再大量分配进入晚期流体中而形成富F流体;对于俯冲带而言,多硅白云母的脱水或热解是形成富F流体/超临界流体的有效途径。     

沉淀-陈化-返溶作用和压力对热液中氟钛络合物高温水解的影响及地质意义

钛是自然界中最不活泼的金属元素之一,然而越来越多的证据显示钛可以在特定条件下能进入热液流体中发生迁移,其中氟可能在其中扮演着重要的角色。本文研究了300℃和50~400MPa压力条件下氟钛络合物(K2Ti F6)的稳定性以及沉淀-陈化-返溶作用和压力对氟钛络合物水解行为的影响。研究结果显示,氟钛络合物水解的过程中,由于Ti O2沉淀物的陈化作用,在稳定的温度和压力条件下,沉淀物的返溶很难发生;但在缓慢降温和机械性振荡过程中,沉淀物的返溶会明显发生。而且,在温度不变的情况下,压力的改变对K2Ti F6水解并没有显著的影响,显示氟钛络合物不管在高压还是低压环境下均遵循近似的水解规律。本文认为主要的原因在于压力的增高会促进水解反应沉淀物的陈化,进而抑制沉淀物的返溶,但并不破坏水解反应的平衡。最后,本文提出金属络合物的形成-水解-沉淀/返溶-陈化过程是水-岩作用或热液成矿过程中高场强元素活化、迁移和成矿的主要机制。     

苏鲁造山带池庄超高压榴辉岩中变质脉:大陆俯冲带超临界流体活动的证据

高压-超高压变质岩中的变质脉能够反映俯冲带变质流体的组成和演化。为了探究大陆俯冲带超临界流体活动及伴随的元素迁移,本文系统地研究了苏鲁造山带南部江苏东海池庄地区的超高压榴辉岩及变质脉。变质脉主要是由石英、石榴石、绿辉石、多硅白云母、蓝晶石、黝帘石、金红石和锆石等矿物组成,与寄主榴辉岩的矿物组成类似。相比于榴辉岩,脉体中的石榴石更加富集重稀土元素(HREE);黝帘石强烈富集轻稀土元素(LREE)。变质脉和榴辉岩中各主要矿物的氧同位素组成在误差范围内一致(石英的δ18O分别为2.42‰和2.79‰;石榴石为-0.30‰和0.010‰;绿辉石为0.25‰和0.071‰),说明变质脉的形成与榴辉岩释放的内部流体有关。综合已有的研究,发现大别-苏鲁造山带不同地区的变质脉和榴辉岩具有极不均一的氧同位素组成,说明在陆壳深俯冲和折返过程中,流体活动有限。利用矿物温压计得到变质脉的峰期变质温压条件为692±65℃和3.6±0.3GPa,脉体中锆石U-Pb定年结果表明锆石的形成时代为218±2.4Ma,指示变质脉形成于深俯冲陆壳折返初期的超高压变质阶段。变质脉中矿物组合和矿物的主微量元素特征说明成脉流体富集Si、Al、Ca、K、LILE、REE和HFSE等元素,表明成脉流体可能是溶解能力极强的超临界流体。     

Ideas out of context and the contextualization of ideas: The transference of Jane Jacobs to São Paulo

The mobility and contextualization of urban policies between localities have received significant attention in recent literature. A number of mechanisms have been identified, including “best practices,” “policy tourism,” multinational firms, and conferences have been identified. This article identifies a new mechanism: the translation and publication of seminal theses into additional languages. Using citations analysis and interviews in São Paulo, this mechanism is confirmed as an additional mode of transference and identified as being responsible for the growth in interest in Jane Jacobs in São Paulo. However, this article finds that despite the increase in accessibility to her ideals, her emphasis on contextuality was overlooked in that case. This, in turn, calls attention to larger issues of the use of so-called ‘universally-good’ examples of urbanism.     

CHANGES IN U.S. NATIONAL MOBILITY LEVELS*

This paper investigates the decline in the national mobility level that occurred during 1970-1983. The effects of generation size are discussed in detail; bigger generations may move at lower rates because of the increased competition for jobs and housing. The changing age composition of the population will imply further mobility declines during coming decades if age-specific mobility rates remain constant. A consideration of anticipated changes in the size of the young adult cohort suggests that the national mobility rate may increase slightly over the next decade, before beginning a relatively modest decline during 1995-2040.     

Ca-H-Al exchanges and aluminium mobility in two Chinese acidic forest soils: a batch experiment

Exchange reactions between Ca²⁺, H⁺ and Al species and their effects on the aluminium mobility in two Chinese acidic forest soils were studied. The study was based on a batch experiment using extractant solutions with different base cation (calcium) concentrations and pH. The experimental data showed that increased Ca²⁺ concentrations increased the release of soil hydrogen—and aluminium ions, especially from the more acid soil. In agreement with a cation exchange process, the treatment with Ca²⁺ extracts gave significantly decreased soil aluminium saturation (AlS) and increased calcium saturation (CaS) on the ion exchanger. Geochemical calculation using AlCHEMI program showed that activities of Al³⁺ in the extracts were all strongly under-saturated with respect to any gibbsite mineral in the studied pH region (i.e. below 4.1). There were instead apparently two different mechanisms controlling the activities of Al³⁺ in extracts. At pH between about 4.1 and 3.7, the Al³⁺ activity did not change significantly with pH. This is especially the case in the more acid soil. Apparently there are no sizeable pools available to release Al in this pH region. At pH below 3.7 (induced by higher Ca²⁺concentration) the activity of Al³⁺ increased with H⁺ though not in a pattern that complies with a gibbsite solubility control. An increase of base cation deposition would therefore mainly enhance the release of hydrogen ions between pH 4.1 and 3.7 and aluminium ions below pH 3.7 from Chinese mature acidic soils. This will cause an increased acidity of soil water in the short term and a decrease in the soil acidity in the long term. More attention should be paid to this fact in Chinese acid rain studies and control options.

沙丘移动的研究经过数十年的发展与完善,基本上已自成体系。但是由于起步较晚,加之现象的复杂性,目前仍有很多重要的理论问题没能彻底解决,至少还未达成共识,成为学术界长期以来争论的焦点,从而影响了它的继续发展。本文在剖析沙丘移动研究现状的基础上,浅析其未来研究思路。重点对沙丘移动的判定指标进行了讨论,指出了Lancaste(r1988)提出的指标表达式不能够直接应用于我国,必须建立与我国国情相符合的指标体系。     

Experimental study of the effect of temperature on ion cluster formation using ion mobility spectrometry

Ion mobility spectrometry offers a robust and effective technique to study ion clusters in ambient conditions. Here, we have experimentally studied the influence of temperature on the positive ion cluster formation of 2-propanol vapor in air, along with parallel measurements for n-butyl acetate vapor in air. For both of these low proton affinity compounds in the ppm concentration range, temperatures below 0 °C tend to favor formation of dimers and trimers. The measurements indicate that approximate estimations for the fractions of these n-mers (n > 1) in the ion spectra, can be obtained by classical theory for ion induced nucleation. Presence of natural background vapors however slightly blurs the data, especially for the fraction of monomers, so that accurate prediction of the fractions of n-mers in the spectra would require more accurate information on the gas composition. The findings concerning thermal behavior of ions help to understand better ion phenomena also in field conditions.
