Statistical analysis of surface hydrography and circulation variations in northern South China Sea

1 INTRODUCTIONThe South China Sea (SCS) is a semi-enclosedmarginal sea in western North Pacific Ocean withvery complex topography and is the important pas-sage connecting the Pacific and Indian Oceans. Ithas great impact to the global climate and a greatinterest of many oceanography researchers. Twodominant surface hydrographic and circulation fea-tures in the northern SCS are a strong fresh waterexpansion and a warm and high-salinity seawaterintrusion such as the SCS Diluted Water…     

广西主要城镇地下水环境监测状况

随着工农业的发展,城镇化水平不断提高,城镇供水问题日益突出。广西的城镇大部分都有河流通过,地表水作为供水水源基本不成问题,然而地下水具有资源丰富、埋藏浅、水质优良、不易受污染、温差变化较小、易开采、便管理等特点,已越来越受到人们的青睐。因此,地下水资源是一个不可多得的、颇具开发潜力的资源,为了保护这一优良资源,

Mantle processes during ocean formation：Petrologic records in peridotites from the Alpine－Apennine ophiolites

Mantle peridotites were early exposed at the sea-floor of the Jurassic Tethys derived from the subcontinental mantle of the Europe-Adria system. During continental rifting and oceanic spreading, these lithospheric peri-dotites were percolated via diffuse reactive porous flowby melt fractions produced by near-fractional melting of the upwelling asthenosphere. Ascending melts inter-acted with the lower lithosphere, dissolving pyroxenes and precipitating olivine, and crystallized at shallower levels in the mantle column causing melt impregnation.Subsequent focused porous flow formed replacive dunitechannels, cutting the impregnated oeridotites, which were conduits for upward migration of MORB-type liq-uids. Melt migration produced depletionlrefertilization and significant heating of the percolatedlimpregnated mantle, i.e the thermochemical erosion of the litho-sphere. Impregnated and thermally modified lithos-pheric mantle was cooled by conductive heat loss dur-ing progressive lithosphere thinning and was intrudeaby MORB magmas, which formed Mg-rich and Fe-richgabbroic dykes and bodies. Alpine-Apennine ophiolitic peridotites record the deep-seated migration of melts which changed their compositions and dynamics during the rift evolution. The thermochemical erosion of the lithospheric mantle by the ascending asthenospheric melts, which induces significant compositional and rhe-ological changes in the lower lithosphere, is a major process in the evolution of the continent-ocean transi-tion towards a slow spreading oceanic system.     

赤潮

严格来讲,赤潮是一种自然现象。《圣经》中记载的河水变红、《聊斋志异》里提到的河水发光,或许是民间对赤潮类事件最古朴也最形象的记录。1831～1836年达尔文乘“Beagle”号环球航行时也对赤潮做过相关记录,虽然那时尚无人提出明确的“赤潮”概念。近几十年来由于对人类的娱乐及生产活动影响越来越严重,频繁发生的赤潮逐渐被界定为环境污染及海洋灾害的一种。河里的水都变作血了。河里的鱼死了,河也腥臭了,埃及人就不能吃这河里的水,埃及遍地都有了血。——《旧约·出埃及记》众坐舟中,旋见青火如灯状,突出水面,随水浮游;渐近舡,则火顿灭…     

澳门附近海域沉积物污染状况及特征分析

掌握澳门附近海域沉积物的污染状况及特征,对于合理安排澳门海洋海岸工程疏浚泥的海洋倾倒,防止造成海洋污染有十分重要的意义。根据1997—1999年连续三年对澳门附近主要区域的海洋沉积物采样测定结果,通过分析认为澳门附近海域沉积物污染具有下列特征:1)沉积物中重金属和油类含量普遍较高,除了总Hg外均高于珠江口海区的其他港口;2)沉积物中污染物的分布受人类活动的影响明显,澳门内港受船只排污、码头作业、陆地工业和生活污水排放的影响,是澳门附近海域沉积物污染最为严重区域;3)受水质交换的影响明显,澳门外港、路环岛东北等区域受珠江径流影响水质交换较快,沉积物中污染物的含量较低,而内港由于水质交换较差,沉积物中污染物的含量相对较高;4)与沉积物的成分组成(吸附)有关,大部分污染物与沉积物中粉砂有较好的相关性,表明粉砂对污染物质有较广泛性的吸附能力,尤其是Cu、Zn、Cd、油类、有机质。     

浅谈火山作用

地壳深处的岩浆喷出地壳便产生了火山现象，所引起的全部地质过程称为火山作用。火山喷发是一种极为壮观而令人生畏的自然现象，介绍了火山喷发主要的3种形式、火山作用造成的灾害类型和中国的火山特点，以及自全新世以来我国有过喷发活动的8个主要活火山。提出了要加强认识火山的活动规律、形成过程、喷发机理，开展监测，采取对策，防灾减灾。

诗意的海洋学——记现代海洋科学创始人马修·莫里

马修·莫里(MatthewF.Maury,1806-1873),美国海军军官,海洋学创始人之一。他的《海洋自然地理》出版于1855年,至今已有150年的历史,是现代海洋科学最早的教科书,并成为世界科学出版物的一个里程碑。莫里从一名普通的海员成为一名海洋科学家,曾写下许多有关海洋科学的著作,《海洋自然地理》是他一生的巅峰之作。
