天然气水合物的重要特征与评价及其在中国海域的勘探前景

从勘探技术和资源评价的角度综述了甲烷水合物生成和聚集的重要特征, 如地震反射剖面、测井曲线资料、地球化学特点等以及对未知区的地质勘探和选区评价 .甲烷水合物在地震剖面上主要表现为BSR(似海底反射)、振幅变形(空白反射)、速度倒置、速度-振幅结构(VAMPS)等,大规模的甲烷水合物聚集可以通过高电阻率(＞100欧姆.米)声波速度、低体积密度等号数进行直接判读.此项研究实例表明,沉积物中典型甲烷水合物具有低渗透性和高毛细管孔隙压力特点,地层孔隙水矿化度也呈异常值,并具有各自独特的地质特征.现场计算巨型甲烷水合物储层中甲烷资源量的方法可分为:测井资料计算法公式为:SW＝(abRw/φm.Rt)1/n;地震资料计算法公式为:ρp＝(1-φ)ρm+(1-s)φρw+sφρh、VH＝λ.φ.S.对全球甲烷水合物总资源量预测的统计达20×1015m3以上.甲烷水合物形成需满足高压、低温条件,要求海水深度＞300 m.因此,甲烷水合物的分布严格地局限于两极地区和陆坡以下的深水地区,并具有3种聚集类型:1.永久性冻土带;2.浅水环境;3.深水环境.深海钻探计划(DSDP)和大洋钻探计划(ODP)已在下述10个地区发现大规模的甲烷水合物聚集,他们是:秘鲁、哥斯达黎加、危地马拉、墨西哥、美国东南大西洋海域、美国西部太平洋海域、日本海域的两个地区、阿拉斯加和墨西哥湾地区.在较浅水沉积物岩心样中发现甲烷水合物的地区,包括黑海、里海、加拿大北部、美国加里福尼亚岸外、墨西哥湾北部、鄂霍茨克海的两个地区.在垂向上,甲烷水合物主要分布于海底以下2 000 m以浅的沉积层中.最新统计表明又主要分布于二个深度区间:200～450 m和700～920 m,前者是由ODP995～997站位发现的;后者在加拿大麦肯齐河三角洲马立克2L-38号井中897～922 m处发现.中国海域已发现多处甲烷水合物可能赋存地区,包括东沙群岛南部、西沙海槽北部、西沙群岛南部以及东海海域地区.姚伯初报道了南海地区9处地震剖面速度异常值的发现,海水深度为420～3 920 m,海洋地质研究所则在东海海域解释了典型BSR反射的剖面,具有速度异常、弱振幅、空白反射、与下伏反射波组具不整合接触关系(VAMPS)等,大致圈定了它们的分布范围,表明在中国海域寻找甲烷水合物具有光明的前景.     

Fishing strange data in national fisheries statistics of Greece

Fisheries statistics provided by the Hellenic Statistical Authority (HELSTAT) have been often criticized for unusual estimates in landings and fishing effort data and for limitations in the sampling methodology, although there is no study on the identification of these biased and misreporting estimates. In the present study the landings per species and fishing subarea, as well as the fishing effort data per fishing gear reported by HELSTAT were analysed over the period 1982–2010. The results showed abrupt changes of both the recorded species and species landings per subarea, spurious correlations of landings among different species groups and misreporting estimates in the number of fishing vessels per fishing gear. These might be likely attributed to: (a) differences of the HELSTAT administrative infrastructures at local scale, (b) changes in the sampling protocol followed by HELSTAT, (c) reporting faults made by HELSTAT, (d) fisheries restrictive measures at local basis, (e) other factors that increased the bias and the uncertainties of HELSTAT fisheries data and related to socio-economic (i.e. fuel price) and operational (i.e. spatial structure of the fisheries fleet) aspects and/or (f) to environmental changes that might possibly affected fisheries dynamics. The present study aims to the improvement of the effectiveness of the national fisheries statistics as pinpointed by Common Fisheries Policy in order to avoid imprecise and/or biased estimations about the state of the fisheries.     

Effects of the Changjiang river discharge on sea surface warming in the Yellow and East China Seas in summer

This study explores the effects of the Changjiang (also called the Yangtze River) river discharge (CRD) on the density stratifications and associated sea surface temperature (SST) changes using a global ocean general circulation model with regional focus on the Yellow and East China Seas (YECS). It is found that CRD increases the SST in summer through a barrier layer (BL) formation that tends to enhance stratification at the mixed layer base, and thus reduces both vertical mixing and entrainment. This process is effective, particularly in August, after the CRD reaches its maximum in July. The SST difference between the composites of flood and drought years confirms that the surface warming is related to surface freshening by the CRD. This result suggests that the BL induced by the CRD is an important contributor to the surface heat budget in the YECS.

Joint probability analysis of water and sediment and predicting sediment load based on copula function

The Jinsha River comprises the upper reaches of the Yangtze River, which is the river section with the highest sediment content. Monitoring of sediment transport in the Jinsha River is done to the guarantee for the normal operation of the Three Gorges Reservoir. In the current study, a copula function was used to do a joint probability analysis of the water and sediment in the Jinsha River Basin (JRB), further a sediment load prediction model based on the copula function also was constructed. The results show that the average annual flow from 2001 to 2018 at the outlet of the Jinsha River (Yibin station) is about 60.43 billion m³, and the average annual sediment load is about 58.82 million t. The linear correlation coefficient between annual flow and annual sediment load is 0.28. The best marginal distribution for annual flow and sediment load is Pearson Type Three (PE3) and Generalized Normal (GNO), respectively, and the best fit for the combined distribution of the two variables is the Frank copula function. The synchronous probability of water and sediment occurrence is 0.459, and the asynchronous probability is 0.541. Based on the copula prediction model, the sediment load can be effectively simulated, and the correlation coefficient between the simulated sequence and the measured sequence reached 0.93. The current study provides important significance for the analysis of water and sediment in the JRB, which is beneficial to the management of Three Gorges Reservoir sediment discharge in the upstream and downstream.     

Geochemical evidence for Late Cretaceous marginal arc-to-backarc transition in the Sabzevar ophiolitic extrusive sequence,northeast Iran

The ophiolitic extrusive sequence, exposed in an area north of Sabzevar, has three major parts: a lower part, with abundant breccia, hyaloclastic tuff, and sheet flow, a middle part with vesicular, aphyric pillow lava, and an upper part with a sequence of lava and volcanic-sedimentary rocks. Pelagic limestone interlayers contain Late Cretaceous (Maastrichtian–Late Maastrichtian) microfauna. The supra-ophiolitic series includes a sequence of turbidititic and volcanic-sedimentary rocks with lava flow, aphyric and phyric lava, and interlayers of pelagic limestone and radiolarian chert. Paleontological investigation of the pelagic limestone and radiolarite interlayers in this series gives a Late Cretaceous age, supporting the idea that the supra-ophiolitic series formed in a trough, synchronous with the Sabzevar oceanic crust during the Late Cretaceous. Geochemical data indicate a relationship between lava in the upper part of the extrusive sequence and lava in the supra-ophiolitic series. These lavas have a calc-alkaline to almost alkaline characteristic, and show a clear depletion in Nb and definite depletions in Zr and Ti in spider diagrams. Data from these rocks plot in the subduction zone field in tectonomagmatic diagrams. The concentration and position of the heavy rare earth elements in the spider diagrams, and their slight variation, can be attributed to partial melting of the depleted mantle wedge above the subducted slab, and enrichment in the LILE can be attributed to subduction components (fluid, melt) released from the subducting slab. In comparison, the sheet flow and pillow lava of the lower and middle parts of the extrusive sequence show OIB characteristics and high potassium magmatic and shoshonitic trends, and their spider diagram patterns show Nb, Zr, and Ti depletions. The enrichment in the LILE in the spider diagram patterns suggest a low rate of partial melting of an enriched, garnet-bearing mantle. It seems that the marginal arc basin, in which the Sabzevar ophiolite was forming, experienced lithospheric extension in response to slab rollback. This process, which formed a backarc basin, may have aborted the embryonic arc, stopped arc magmatism, and led to the rise of mantle diapirs. The extrusive ophiolite sequence, north of Sabzevar probably formed during the transition from a marginal arc basin to a backarc basin during the Late Cretaceous.     

中国东部海域泥质沉积区现代沉积速率及其物源控制效应初探

中国东部陆架(渤、黄、东海)是欧亚大陆和太平洋之间的一个重要物质交换通道,其周边的河流每年向海输入了大量的细颗粒沉积物。这些物质在海洋动力(潮流、波浪、环流等)的作用下形成了多个泥质沉积区(带)。过去的数十年间,国内外学者对东部陆架海沉积物扩散和沉积动力机制进行了深入的研究,但是,目前对陆架泥质沉积的形成机制以及沉积物收支情况还存在争议。本文利用整理的现代沉积速率资料,从物源控制的角度出发,研究了各泥质沉积区10～100a尺度的沉积速率和沉积通量的分布规律,并与全新世泥质沉积记录进行对比,指出物源是控制这些泥质沉积形成的主要因素。河流携带入海物质是这些泥质沉积的主要"源",而这些泥质区是典型的"汇"。小型河流河口沉积过程和物质贡献需引起重视。定量化物源分析需结合物源供应等方面的资料,在遵守沉积物收支平衡的前提下进行。
