Recent sedimentation processes in the Northern Aral Sea

A survey of recent bottom sediments in the Northern Aral Sea was undertaken to elucidate the main direction of the alteration of sedimentation processes as a result of the significant decrease in the level of the sea from the beginning of the 1960s. Investigations were carried out in August–September 1991 from on board helicopter MI-8 MTV-1 which was equipped with the navigation system “LORAN-OMEGA”. Sediments were sampled by means of gravity coring and grab sampling. The frequency of sampling was about 1 station per 10 km². At several sites, water samples were collected. Grain-size analysis was undertaken and the mineralogy of the sediments was determined by optical means, using an SEM energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis, and X-ray diffractometry using a DRON-2.0 diffractometer.     

未来长江口流量和潮位变化及其对河口水质的影响

本文通过长江口实测氯度与流量和潮位资料的相关分析,预估了未来河口水质的变化。计算表明,当大通站下泄流量不足13×10³m³/s时,未来东线调水及海平面上升,将使长江口南支河段水质严重恶化;三峡水库建成后,枯季1-3月增加下泄水量虽可抵消东线调水的影响,但在水库蓄水的10月遇枯水年分,水质将大幅度下降。

有机累托石的合成与特性研究

累托石是二八面体云母层与蒙脱石层1：1规间民支矿物，兼有云母和蒙脱三 某些特征。本文利用二甲基十八烷基羟乙基季铵盐与累托石进行阳离子交换反应合成有机累托石。并采用物理化学、X射线衍射、差热、热失重和红外吸收光谱等分析方法对它的特性进行了研究。经季铵盐复合处理后，累托放扣蒙脱石层间被有机阳离子覆盖，它的面网间距d001由原来的24.8°/A增至29.5°/A。累托石粘土亲水憎油性转变为憎水亲油性有机粘土后能在有机溶剂中膨胀和分散。它是一种有应用前景的新材料。     

Economic aspects of pad construction costs on heap leach projects

Summary Pad construction costs can affect the overall economics of heap leach projects. Costs for single- and double-lined pads, using various designs, are listed for a typical small and large project. Double-lined pads are now frequently required by regulatory agencies. Unless such designs significantly reduce the risk of site-specific contamination, the extra costs cannot be justified from an economical viewpoint. Specific attention is given to the short project life (typically five years) of heap leach projects. A few numerical examples are presented to demonstrate the overall impact of these costs on economic parameters.     

Effects on antioxidant enzyme activities and osmolytes in Halocnemum strobilaceum under salt stress

The seedlings of Halocnermum strobilaceum were cultivated in 0.5% hoagland nutrient solution containing 0.0%, 0.9%, 2.7% and 5.4% of NaCl as well as composite salt (Na⁺, Ca²⁺, K⁺, Si⁴⁺) for 20 days; all the contents are in weight ratio. Succulent level, inorganic ions (Na⁺, K⁺), organics such as betaine, proline, malondialdehyde, and antioxidant enzyme activities including superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POD), betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH) were measured to reveal its salt tolerance mechanism. When the composite salt concentration reaches 5.4%, SOD activity level, and MDA content is five times the control group; when it reaches 2.7%, the succulent level of seedlings, and the content of K⁺ in roots is nearly two times the NaCl treatment; the dry weight is more than three times the control group; with the NaCl treatment, MDA is three times the contrast; when the salt concentration is 2.7%, POD reaches the maximum. Results indicate that Si⁴⁺, K⁺, and Ca²⁺ from composite salt in the roots of H. strobilaceum improved the water-holding capacity. The activities of antioxidant enzyme were raised by the accumulation of proline and betaine, which increased the salt tolerance. The absorption of K⁺ promoted the high ratio of K⁺/Na⁺ and alleviated the damage of cell membranes of H. strobilaceum, which is associated with osmotic contents such as betaine and proline.

吐鲁番盆地是我国西部极端干旱地区的一个山间盆地,气候干旱、降雨稀少,荒漠生态典型,生态环境脆弱。文章从植被生长与土壤含水率、含盐量、地下水矿化度、埋深等方面进行分析,得出吐鲁番盆地艾丁湖周缘低湿地植被生态可持续发展的合理生态水位为埋深2.5~3.5 m。总结了吐鲁番盆地天然绿洲区的植被随地下水变化的关系及其演替模式。     

贵州猫场超大型铝土矿床成因浅析

猫场铝土矿床位于大威岭背斜北东端猫场穹窿背斜。由于寒武系碳酸盐岩古喀斯特侵蚀面,经长期风化溶蚀淋滤作用,在古喀斯特正地形上先形成粘土层,粘土层进一步风化溶蚀经脱硅、脱铁形成三水铝石的矿源层,而古喀斯特负地形则为铝土矿的沉积提供了充足的场所。本文通过对含矿岩系的特征分析,结合沉积相与古地理环境等研究,揭示了猫场铝土矿床的形成严格受大地构造和古喀斯特地形的控制。     

柴达木盆地北部新生代构造运动及其对盐湖演化的影响

新生代以来,印度板块与青藏高原发生了强烈的碰撞,由此而产生的远程效应导致柴达木盆地北缘的阿尔金山脉晚古近纪以后发生了强烈的走滑,并导致盆内构造形式发生了一系列变化。在前人对盆地构造运动、古地磁、古地理及岩石地球化学研究结果的基础上,提出了上新世以来在NE和近NS向共同挤压作用的影响下,盆地内部棋盘格式不均匀隆升控制了柴达木盆地北部湖盆的形成,对后期盐湖沉积产生了重要影响。     

柴达木盆地昆特依盐湖磁化率特征及古气候意义

昆特依盐湖是柴达木盆地盐湖演化和古气候研究的重要对象。前人对昆特依盐湖钻孔的年代学和地球化学组成特征开展过一些研究,但由于采样间距大,限制了对成盐演化过程的深入理解。而且,目前关于昆特依盐湖磁化率特征的研究未见报道。本文对昆特依盐湖ZK1402钻孔(35 m深)的₁₄C年代和磁化率进行了初步研究。结果表明：(1)钻孔由含盐碎屑层和盐层的互层所组成。钻孔的低频磁化率和高频磁化率的变化极为相似。盐层的低频磁化率值低,含盐碎屑层的低频磁化率值高。低频磁化率清晰地记录到古盐湖经历了四次显著的成盐期。(2)低频磁化率和频率磁化率(百分比形式)呈负相关关系。(3)钻孔24.8 m深处的加速器质谱(AMS)₁₄C校正年代为31780 ± 442 cal a BP,33.0 m深处的年代(19259 ± 207 cal a BP)出现倒转,表明钻孔下部的₁₄C年龄可能受到现代碳污染而接近饱和。
