Radiometric dating of lake sediments from Signy Island (maritime Antarctic): evidence of recent climatic change

Sediment cores from three lakes (Moss, Sombre and Heywood) in the maritime Antarctic (Signy Island, South Orkney Islands) have been successfully dated radiometrically by²¹⁰Pb and¹³⁷Cs. The core inventories of both fallout radionuclides are an order of magnitude higher than that which can be supported by the direct atmospheric flux at this latitude. The elevated values may be explained by fallout onto the catchment during the winter being delivered directly to the lakes during the annual thaw. Two of the lakes (Sombre and Heywood) show marked increases in sediment accumulation afterc. 1950. This appears to be associated with a documented rise in temperature in the South Orkney Islands, which has caused extensive deglaciation at Signy Island.This is the tenth of a series of papers to be published by this journal following the 20 ^th anniversary of the first application of²¹⁰Pb dating of lake sediments. Dr P.G. Appleby is guest editing this series.

Emission of nitric oxide from soils and termite nests in a Trachypogon savanna of the Orinoco basin

Nitric oxide fluxes from soils in the Trachypogon savanna of the Orinoco basin were determined during the dry season using the static chamber method. The emission from dry soils fluctuated from 0.4 to 3 ng N m^–2 s^–1 and increased up to 25 ng N m^–2 s^–1 after moderate watering or light rain-falls (1 to 5 mm). The mean emission values are up to 6 times lower than one observed earlier at the Chaguaramas site, but up to 10 times higher than one recorded at the Guri site, indicating an important spatial variability in NO fluxes of the Venezuelan savanna region. The changes observed after the addition of nitrogen to the soil, in the form of ammonium and/or nitrate, indicate a high denitrification potential in this acidic soil. Burning of the surface vegetation produced an increase by a factor of 10 in the emission rate of NO, but the effect was relatively short in time, about 5 days. It was estimated for the savanna region that burning increases the total NO soil emission during the dry season by 15% compared to the unburnt case. Soils with termite nests emit 10 times more NO than soil without nests, but the contribution from this source is less than 2% of the total savanna soil flux.     

人工植被和流动沙丘近地面层湍流通量的计算

提出了由Ｂｕｓｉｎｇｅｒ建议的无量纲廓线通用函数形式的近地面层稳定度参数ζ的相似方程分析解。代替了以往采用数值迭代法求ζ，并应用于沙漠人工植被和裸露流动沙丘上的实例资料分析。采用目前广泛应用的空气动力学方法，分别计算了动量和热量交换系数，感热和潜热通量，并由波文比－能量平衡方法进行了验证。结果表明：采用Ｂｕｓｉｎｇｅｒ无量纲通量廓线关系形式的近地面层稳定度参数ζ的相似方程分析解，代替以往惯用的数值     

风速垂直变化对催化剂扩散的影响

在寻求层状云中催化剂扩散议程的解时，一般都假定风速为常值，但实际上风速是随高度变化的。该文在云中催化剂的数值模式中考虑了风速随高度的变化，用差分格式求其解，并进行了个例计算和比较分析。     

全球月平均高度距平场正斜压性的分析(Ⅱ)——与遥相关型的联系

利用欧洲中心全球客观分析的7层月平均位势高度距平资料,计算了几种大气环流遥相关型指数与各层位势高度距平的相关系数分布。发现:大气环流异常的正压、斜压性的地理差异与遥相关型的垂直结构关系密切。综合经验正交函数分析,结果亦然。

本文在分析了辽东山区土地资源特征和人口特征的基础上,从三个角度讨论了辽东山区的人口垂直分布特征,同时还详细分析了人口布局不合理对山区生态环境和经济的影响。并指出,适度移民、并村并点、整合山村及建设农村小集镇是调整山区人口布局,促进山区经济发展和生态环境恢复的有效途径。     

水系分维的构造含义

本文运用分数维几何学,研究了河流水系分维与地壳里向运动、活动断裂格局及运动学特征的关联性。结果表明:1)地壳垂向运动控制大型河流主干的总体形态;2)活动断裂格局复杂、水平运动强烈的地区,水系分维值高;3)走滑断裂较斜滑断裂对水系发育的控制强烈,而后者主要起到对水系的分区作用。     

新疆喀拉通克铜镍硫化矿区二、三号矿床特征及成因

喀拉通克铜镍硫化矿区二、三号矿床的两个岩体为隐伏的中－基性岩体，受北西向断裂的控制，侵位于石炭统南明水组上段之下部地层中，为岩浆熔离型铜镍硫化矿床。矿物成分以磁黄铁矿、镍黄铁矿、黄铜矿为主。有用元素除铜、镍外，尚伴生有金、银、铂、色、钴、硫可综合利用。它国内外同类型矿床相比，具有成岩、成矿时代新，岩体基性程度低、铜大于镍等特点，因而又具有新的地质找矿意义。
