Comparison of atmospheric forcing in four sub-arctic seas

A comparative analysis was conducted on climate variability in four sub-arctic seas: the Sea of Okhotsk, the Bering Sea shelf, the Labrador Sea, and the Barents Sea. Based on data from the NCEP/NCAR reanalysis, the focus was on air–sea interactions, which influence ice cover, ocean currents, mixing, and stratification on sub-seasonal to decadal time scales. The seasonal cycles of the area-weighted averages of sea-level pressure (SLP), surface air temperature (SAT) and heat fluxes show remarkable similarity among the four sub-arctic seas. With respect to variation in climate, all four seas experience changes of comparable magnitude on interannual to interdecadal time scales, but with different timing. Since 2000 warm SAT anomalies were found during most of the year in three of the four sub-arctic seas, with the exception of the Sea of Okhotsk. A seesaw (out of phase) pattern in winter SAT anomalies between the Labrador and the Barents Sea in the Atlantic sector is observed during the past 50 years before 2000; a similar type of co-variability between the Sea of Okhotsk and the Bering Sea shelf in the Pacific is only evident since 1970s. Recent positive anomalies of net heat flux are more prominent in winter and spring in the Pacific sectors, and in summer in the Atlantic sectors. There is a reduced magnitude in wind mixing in the Sea of Okhotsk since 1980, in the Barents Sea since 2000, and in early spring/late winter in the Bering Sea shelf since 1995. Reduced sea-ice areas are seen over three out of four (except the Sea of Okhotsk) sub-arctic seas in recent decades, particularly after 2000 based on combined in situ and satellite observations (HadISST). This analysis provides context for the pan-regional synthesis of the linkages between climate and marine ecosystems.     

Indirect Imaging of the Accretion Disk Rim in W Crucis

The eclipsing binary W Crucis belongs to the rare group of strongly interacting binaries, which are believed to be shortly after the first and rapid mass transfer between components, prior to the Algol phase. New 7-colour photometric measurements in the Geneva system are presented for this long period binary. Several consecutive cycles were covered, which revealed rather complex light curves with pronounced bumps and asymmetries in the eclipse shoulders, as well in out-of-eclipse brightness. We modelled light curves with a variant of Rutten’s 3D eclipse-mapping method, which makes it possible to indirectly image the accretion disk rim. A patchy structure has emerged, which explains the rather erratic and complex light curve and its cycle-to-cycle variations.     

不同W氧化度钠钨青铜的结构特征与合成方法探究

钠钨青铜NaxWO3(0≤x≤1)因其特殊的物理化学性质受到学者的日益关注,它是一种孔道结构的非严格计量含钨化合物,Na+填充于由[WO6]八面体排列组合起来的二级结构空隙中。随着x值的增加,W的平均氧化度逐渐降低,NaxWO3依次发生单斜-正交-四方Ⅰ(空间群I4/nmm)-六方-四方Ⅱ(空间群P4/mbm)-立方晶体结构的转变,结构对称型逐渐升高(四方Ⅱ型除外)。本文从晶体化学角度系统研究了不同W平均氧化度钠钨青铜的结构特征,并通过固相合成法得到了四方和立方钠钨青铜,通过水热合成法得到了六方钠钨青铜。实验结果表明,在固相合成过程中,还原剂NaBH4的量越多,W还原的价态越低,实现钠钨青铜NaxWO3由四方结构向立方结构的转变;在相同还原剂量情况下,合成温度越高,得到的钠钨青铜结构对称型越高;合成立方钠钨青铜的温度一般为700~850℃,高于四方钠钨青铜的合成温度(600~700℃);反应需要适当的酸碱度环境,合成四方和六方钠钨青铜的pH值应控制在6左右,在水热合成过程中,六方结构的钠钨青铜pH值设在2附近较适宜。本文为钠钨青铜系列化合物及不同结构钠钨青铜的合成提供了参考。

赣东北朱溪钨(铜)矿床两期石榴石研究及其对成矿作用的指示

本文对朱溪超大型钨(铜)矿床中两类与白钨矿密切相关的石榴石进行了研究。研究表明,这两类共存的石榴石与夕卡岩型矿床中常见的同期热液在不同阶段形成的两种石榴石不同。早期石榴石相对更加富Fe(Ad_37.17~41.84Gr_54.83~59.57Sp_3.10~4.62),而晚期石榴石更加富Al(Ad_12.69~14.42Gr_77.56~79.03Sp_0.44~0.92),成分上更接近钙铝榴石端员,具有更低的Sn含量,更高的U含量,并在稀土配分曲线中显示出更明显的正Eu异常,表明晚期石榴石形成时的氧逸度明显低于早期石榴石形成时的氧逸度。晚期石榴石相对于早期石榴石具有更高的Cu、Pb、Zn、Li、Be、B、Rb、Cs、Sr含量和更低的W、Mo、Ga、Ge含量,并且与成矿相关岩体具有相似的稀土配分模式曲线,表明晚期石榴石与朱溪矿床的成矿相关岩浆演化而形成的残余岩浆热液流体具有更加密切的相关性。本文研究的两类共存的石榴石可能是两期成矿热液流体作用的产物,暗示朱溪矿床的成矿作用可能与多期岩浆活动有关。     

U–Pb geochronology and Raman spectroscopy of zircons from the granites in the Xihuashan and Tieshanlong Deposit: Implications for W‐Sn mineralization in Southern Jiangxi Province,South China

The Xihuashan and Tieshanlong tungsten deposit is an important large quartz vein‐type W‐polymetallic deposit in the southern Jiangxi Province, eastern Nanling Range. Zircon U–Pb analyses of representative ore‐forming granites from the Xihuashan and Tieshanlong tungsten deposit yield ages of 146.3 ± 2.9 Ma and 146.0 ± 3.8 Ma, respectively. According to the zircon Raman spectroscopy, these granitic rocks are disturbed by different degrees of hydrothermal alteration, whereas most zircons exhibit primary oscillatory zoning and Th/U ratios in the range of magmatic zircon, which means the analysis results represent the crystallization age of metallogenetic granitic assemblages. In combination with regional geological data, it is suggested that the Late Jurassic is probably another important episode of granitic magmatism and W‐Sn mineralization in southern Jiangxi Provinces, even South China.
