Continental Oxygen Isotopic Record of the Last 170,000 Years in Jerusalem

A long radiometrically dated oxygen isotopic record of continental climatic variations since the penultimate glaciation was obtained from a stalagmite deposited in a sealed cave in Jerusalem. This record shows that speleothems have the potential of assigning dates to long- and short-term climatic events, with possible refining of Milankovitch tuning of ice and marine records which themselves are not datable. Short-term (1000-yr) events are very significant in the region, reaching 50% of glacial/interglacial fluctuations. The Mediterranean Sea was the most probable source of local precipitation throughout the last glacial cycle.     

Determination of Lithium Contents in Silicates by Isotope Dilution ICP-MS and its Evaluation by Isotope Dilution Thermal Ionisation Mass Spectrometry

A precise and simple method for the determination of lithium concentrations in small amounts of silicate sample was developed by applying isotope dilution-inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry (ID-ICP-MS). Samples plus a Li spike were digested with HF-HClO₄, dried and diluted with HNO₃, and measured by ICP-MS. No matrix effects were observed for ⁷Li/⁶Li in rock solutions with a dilution factor (DF) of 97 at an ICP power of 1.7 kW. By this method, the determination of 0.5 μg g^-1 Li in a silicate sample of 1 mg can be made with a blank correction of < 1%. Lithium contents of ultrabasic to acidic silicate reference materials (JP-1, JB-2, JB-3, JA-1, JA-2, JA-3, JR-1 and JR-2 from the Geological Survey of Japan, and PCC-1 from the US Geological Survey) and chondrites (three different Allende and one Murchison sample) of 8 to 81 mg were determined. The relative standard deviation (RSD) was typically < 1.7%. Lithium contents of these samples were further determined by isotope dilution-thermal ionisation mass spectrometry (ID-TIMS). The relative differences between ID-ICP-MS and ID-TIMS were typically < 2%, indicating the high accuracy of ID-ICP-MS developed in this study.     

第四纪年龄测定的新技术──热电高质谱铀系法的发展近况

近10年来国际上用热电离质谱代替α谱仪测定不平衡铀系样品的年龄，在造礁珊瑚、洞穴堆积物、年轻火山岩和湖泊沉积物等领域已取得了显著的成果。该技术有明显的优点，如样品用量少，测试时间短，测量精度高，测年范围宽，是中更新世至全新世以来有效的测年方法之一，可为全球变化研究提供高精度和高灵敏度的年龄谱，展示了热电离质谱技术如同加速器质谱技术一样，有广阔的应用前景。我们曾用MAT－262质谱仪对国内石笋标样（GBW04412，GBW04413）和国际珊瑚标样（RKM－4）进行过测试，取得了与标准值一致的结果。     

成像光谱和热红外多光谱技术地质制图研究

根据高光谱分辨率的航空成像光谱（ＭＡＩＳ）和热红外多光谱（ＴＩＭＳ）图像数据中遥感信息特点，即可从其数据获得成像地物光谱，利用航空成像光谱图像处理和分析方法，可有效和精确地对地物特性进行识别和提取。此次以调查沉积岩地区地质地层单元、岩性识别为研究内容的中日联合遥感研究所采用的图像数据，是由中国科学院上海技术物理研究所新开发的ＭＡＩＳ和ＴＩＭＳ获取的。研究结果表明，利用计算机图像处理方法，对ＴＩＭＳ图像进行主成分分析（ＰＣ），ＭＡＩＳ的短波红外（ＳＷＩＲ）图像的假彩色合成图（ＦＣＣ），以及可见近红外（ＶＮＩＲ）图像波段差值处理，可将研究区内出露的白云岩、灰岩以及红色砂岩、绿色砂岩等岩性识别出来，同时圈出了研究区内出露的各个时代的地层，证明了ＭＡＩＳ和ＴＩＭＳ在地质制图方面有较大的潜力。

８０年代中期发展起来的高精度、高灵敏度不平衡铀系热电离质谱定年新技术是同位素定年技术的一次革命性突破，并已在古气候、古环境、古海洋、考古学以及近代火山—岩浆作用研究中取得了一系列重要成果，本文介绍了这方面的研究进展。这一新技术已引起越来越广泛的重视，显示出巨大的应用前景。尽快开展不平衡铀系热电离质谱定年技术的应用，对提高我国的高分辩率第四纪年代学分析技术和应用研究水平有重要意义。     

High‐Precision Sr‐Nd‐Hf‐Pb Isotopic Composition of Chinese Geological Standard Glass Reference Materials CGSG‐1, CGSG‐2, CGSG‐4 and CGSG‐5 by MC‐ICP‐MS and TIMS

To assess the homogeneity of and provide the first Sr‐Nd‐Hf‐Pb isotopic reference values for the Chinese Geological Standard Glasses CGSG‐1, CGSG‐2, CGSG‐4 and CGSG‐5, we measured these isotopes in several measurement sessions over the course of nearly 3 years. The results were obtained by high‐precision MC‐ICP‐MS and TIMS. Our investigation indicates that these CGSG glass reference materials are homogenous with regard to Sr‐Nd‐Hf‐Pb isotopic distribution and are therefore suitable geochemical materials for Sr‐Nd‐Hf‐Pb isotope measurements. Clear differences in Sr‐Nd‐Hf‐Pb isotopic composition were observed between the glasses and the original powdered rock reference materials (CGSG‐2 and GSR‐7, and especially CGSG‐5 and GSR‐2) because of flux addition during preparation of the glasses. The new Sr‐Nd‐Hf‐Pb isotope data provided here might be useful to the geochemical community for in situ and bulk analysis.     

Barbados岛珊瑚礁高精度铀系年龄及讨论

应用同位素稀释法热电离质谱(TIMS)技术测定珊瑚礁的高精度铀系年龄。通过对BarbadosⅢ、Ⅳ阶地等样品分析,RendezvousHil和Curacao+6m的TIMS年龄分别为129.2±1.2kaB.P.和125.4±1.1kaB.P.,对应深海沉积物氧同位素第5期5e段的高海面;Kendal山阶地为208.1±1.9kaB.P.,可能代表7c间冰期高海平面的时代。该结果与Edwards等测定同一阶地的年龄一致,与α谱法数据在误差范围内吻合。另外,探讨了初始铀同位素比值的变化,并对TIMS年龄的可靠性做了评价。     

永暑礁西南礁镯生物地貌与沉积环境

在海上系统调查的基础上提出南沙群岛永暑礁西南部礁镯并非传统的开放型环礁,而是一个封闭型的小环礁,封闭的泻湖能够为高分辨率古环境重建提供原生生物沉积。该小环礁可分为礁前斜坡活珊瑚林带、外礁坪珊瑚生长带、礁突起珊瑚枝块胶结堆积带、内礁坪枝状珊瑚生长-砂质沉积交互带、泻湖坡枝状珊瑚生长-细砂沉积带和泻湖盆底粉砂质生物沉积带共6个生物地貌和沉积带。12个礁坪原生滨珊瑚和2个礁岩滨珊瑚的^14C和TIMS U-Th测年结果表明永暑礁礁坪面形成于近代,它们没有提供中全新世高海平面的证据,约950aBP的中世纪暖期南沙群岛可能有过非常强的风暴潮。此外,1000年以内的珊瑚常规^14C未校正年代与TIMS U-Th年代存在显著差异,在环境解释中需要特别小心。     

GGR Critical Review of Analytical Developments in 2008–2009: An Introduction

This collection of articles represents the fourth in a series of reviews in which authors have aimed at capturing the key advances in a range of analytical fields ( Hergt et al. 2005, 2006, 2008 ). The publication period under review is 2008–2009 and the intention here is to provide readers with a summary of the most influential developments published during this period, across a broad range of topics appropriate to the Earth and environmental sciences. Most authors comment on the ways in which the emphases of research in their specific fields of examination have changed over time. All note an increase in rigour and focus on data quality. Whether advances have taken place in instrumentation, sample manipulation or data deconvolution, there are a large number of dedicated scientists out there contributing to the high quality of geochemical data employed in geological and environmental research.
