中国周边板块的相互作用及其对中国应力场的影响——（Ⅱ）印度板块的影响

本文利用地震资料并结合地质资料,讨论了印度板块与欧亚板块在中国周边的相互作用及其对中国应力场的影响,指出两板块在喜马拉雅山前断裂地区碰撞,碰撞边界向西延续到35°N,74°E附近,其主要挤压方向为NNE,并形成SE方向的物质流动.帕米尔地区有强烈的构造运动,并存在俯冲带形态的构造.在26.5°N,97°E附近,板块边界的走向发生突变,并形成东倾的缅甸山弧俯冲带,但印度板块挤压造成的主压应力方向为NNE向.在安达曼-尼科巴-苏门答腊-爪哇岛弧,印度板块俯冲于欧亚板块之下,在中国南海一带形成NNW向或近Ns向的主压应力.     

内蒙白音诺等矿床中方铅矿中银的赋存形式及其与伴生元素锑、铋的关系

作者根据Ag2S-PbS,Ag2S-PbS-Sb2S3及各体系相平衡资科以及內蒙白音诺等矿床中各种矿物共生组合中方铅矿的成分,论证了银的赋存状态及其与伴生元素锑、铋的关系。在含银及低温条件下,银在方铅矿中形成独立的银锑硫盐矿物,这有利于银的回收。在含铋低温条件下,银在方铅矿中不可避免地有相当一部分呈固溶体的状态分散在晶格中,它不利于银的回收。因此,只需研究银的赋存状态及矿石或方铅矿中伴生元素锑、铋含量及其比例,即可对铅精矿中银的存在形式及回收率作出初步的评价。     

细胞自动机的多重分形特征和动力学根源

用大量弹簧滑块组成的模型可以模拟地震的复杂性,本文以细胞自动机(CA)为数学工具,结合地震学和岩石力学的结果,考虑了能量的输入和损耗,进行了地震事件的数字模拟。对模型中输出的"地震"事件进行了时间和空间的多分形分析,并对自组织临界(SOC)状态进行了讨论,进而得到事件至少在时间域里的分布呈现出层次结构,符合自相似特征。本文的CA模型属于确定性的混沌系统,而对于处在SOC状态下的大量事件的频度和大小的统计与G-R指数律很好地吻合。结果表明,虽然自组织(SO)可能是更准确的地震表征,但SOC仍然是研究地震现象的很好的模式。

Thermodynamic modeling of binary CH4–CO2 fluid inclusions

An equation of state (EOS) explicit in Helmholtz free energy has been improved to calculate the PVTx and vapor–liquid phase equilibrium properties of CH₄–CO₂ fluid mixture. This EOS, where four mixing parameters are used, is based on highly accurate EOSs recommended by NIST for pure components (CH₄ and CO₂) and contains a simple generalized departure function presented by Lemmon and Jacobsen (1999). Comparison with experimental data available indicates that the EOS can calculate both vapor–liquid phase equilibrium and volumetric properties of this binary fluid system with accuracy close to that of experimental data up to high temperature and pressure within full range of composition. The EOS of CH₄–CO₂ fluid, together with the updated Gibbs free energy model of solid CO₂ (dry ice), is applied to calculate the CH₄ content (x_CH4) and molar volume (V_m) of the CH₄–CO₂ fluid inclusion based on the assumption that the volume of an inclusion keeps constant during heating and cooling. $V_{\text{m}}-x_{{\text{CH}}_4}$ diagrams are presented, which describe phase transitions involving vapor, liquid and CO₂ solid phases of CH₄–CO₂ fluid inclusions. Isochores of CH₄–CO₂ inclusions at given $x_{{\text{CH}}_4}$ and V_m can be easily calculated from the improved EOS.     

Review on Researches of Aragonite Saturation State in the Southern Ocean:A Key Parameter of Southern Ocean Acidification

The Southern Ocean is a strong sink for atmospheric CO₂, making it especially vulnerable to ocean acidification (OA). The aragonite saturation state (Ω_arg) of seawater has been used as an index for the estimation of OA, which plays a critical role in evaluating the living environment of marine calcified organisms. However, it is very difficult to perform the studies of OA and Ω_arg in the Southern Ocean due to its harsh climate. Therefore, in order to better understand the OA and its further influences, the advances of Ω_arg studies were summarized in the oceans surrounding the Antarctica. Significant spatial and temporal variations of surface seawater Ω_arg are demonstrated in the Southern Ocean. In general, the surface seawater Ω_arg shows a lower value in the off-shore areas than in the open oceans. And, Ω_arg also exhibits a strong seasonal cycle with a higher value in summer than in winter. The distributions of Ω_arg in vertical water column generally present a declining tendency from surface to bottom. In addition, the shoaling of Ω_arg horizon at high latitude could be attributed to the ventilation and upwelling of deep waters in the Southern Ocean. There are many factors that could impact the Ω_arg in the Southern Ocean, including sea ice melting, sea-air CO₂ exchange, biological activities and hydrological processes, etc. Finally, the future changes and key scientific problems of OA in the Southern Ocean are proposed.     

The present-day state of tectonic stress in the Darling Basin,Australia: Implications for exploration and production

Knowledge of the full present-day stress tensor and pore pressure has significant applications in the exploration and production of conventional and unconventional hydrocarbon reservoirs. The Darling Basin of New South Wales, Australia, is an old sedimentary basin (Late Cambrian/Silurian to Early Carboniferous) in which there was limited information about the present-day stress field prior to this study. In this paper we evaluate the contemporary stress field of the Darling Basin using a dataset from recent exploration wells and perform a geomechanical risk assessment with respect to borehole stability, fracture/fault generation and reactivation. Our interpretations of borehole failures in borehole image logs reveal a prevailing east-west orientation of the maximum horizontal stress throughout the Darling Basin. The estimates of the magnitudes for the vertical, minimum and maximum horizontal stress in the studied wells indicate a transition between thrust and strike-slip faulting stress regime at 600–700 m depths, where the magnitude of vertical stress and minimum horizontal stress are close to each other. However, the presence of borehole breakouts and drilling-induced tensile fractures, that we observe in the image logs at greater depths (900–2100 m) indicate a transition into a strike-slip tectonic stress regime below a depth range of approximately 700–900 m. These findings are in agreement with overcoring stress measurements east and west of the investigated wells. Furthermore, there are several Neogene-to-Recent geological structures in the study area that indicate thrust faulting with an east-west oriented maximum horizontal stress orientation around this old sedimentary basin. The consistency between the orientation of maximum horizontal stress determined from wellbore data and neotectonic structures is significant, and implies that horizontal stress orientations derived from very recent geological features may be valuable inputs to geomechanical models in the absence of wellbore or other data. However, the recent surface geological structures suggest a thrust faulting stress regime that is in slight contrast to the transition between thrust and strike-slip stress regime (S_H > S_h ∼ S_v) indicated by petroleum data, and highlights a potential pitfall of using neotectonic structures in geomechanical models. In particular, careful attention and verification should be made when using neotectonic structures for input, calibration or confirmation of geomechanical models, especially in intraplate tectonic settings such as Australia.

Looking beyond the neighbourhood: income inequality and residential segregation in Swedish metropolitan areas, 1991–2010

In recent years, residential segregation has become a major issue in the Swedish policy debate. The prevailing view is that residential segregation is a crucial contributing factor to the development of income inequality, since individual income prospects are thought to be influenced by the population characteristics of their neighbourhoods. This study takes the opposite approach and analyses the extent to which, in the period 1991–2010, rising income inequality contributed to the development of residential segregation by income in Swedish metropolitan areas. The period was characterized by unprecedented growth in income inequality, which was associated with a decline in the redistributive power of the welfare state. Residential segregation by income mirrored locally the general trend in income inequality. Another factor was the change in income dispersion in neighbourhoods, relative to the metropolitan areas as a whole, which indicates a tendency towards increased population homogeneity in neighbourhoods with respect to income.     

南大洋表层海水酸化研究进展

海洋酸化是全球变化的一个关注点,南大洋CO2吸收量占海洋对人为CO2的吸收量的30%—40%,同时,南大洋是缓冲能力较低、生态系统脆弱的高纬海域,所以,理解南大洋海水酸化过程及其控制因素就显得尤为重要。海水酸化引起海水中碳酸根离子(CO2-3)的浓度、碳酸钙饱和度(Ω)降低,这对成钙类生物碳酸钙(包括文石和方解石)的形成有害,最终可能对生态系统造成危害。了解海洋酸化的影响、预测酸化对海水碳酸盐体系和生态系统的影响具有重要意义。因此,本文对目前南大洋的开阔大洋区以及两个具有代表性的边缘海和海湾的酸化研究概况进行了梳理,试图对南大洋表层海水酸化的研究进行概述、展望未来南大洋海洋酸化研究趋势并提出一些亟须解决的问题。
