扬子板块的地壳演化与地层对比

扬子板块是在古元古－新太古宙的古陆核基础上发展演化而成。吕梁运动以前，以川中微型陆块为主体的若干个小型古陆块组成向北西突出的牛轭形陆块带。中元古宙在牛轭形陆块带的东西两侧形成海沟岛弧系，沉积一套弧前及弧后的优地槽和旰地槽建造。１０－１１亿年时的东川运动使沟弧系褶皱回返，固结为陆新元古宙早期产生大陆裂谷，形成五一套裂谷建造，晋宁运动使扬子板块整体固结新元古宙晚发育山前磨拉建造、冰碛层及碳酸盐盖层。全     

大陆裂谷研究中的几个前沿课题

本文强调研究大陆裂谷具有重要的理论和实践意义，重点评述了当前大陆裂谷研究中的几个前沿课题：（１）建立大陆裂谷深部结构模式，介绍了张性破裂模式和地幔柱模式；（２）研究大陆裂谷与板块构造关系，认为大陆裂谷的发育与变化的板块运动密切相关；（３）探讨大陆裂谷的热流作用，证实了裂谷深部存在高温驱动的流体和热循环，推测这里可能就是幼年大洋产生的地带；（４）总结大陆裂谷成因类型，根据地球动力学状态划分了五种类型；（５）完善大陆裂谷研究思路与方法，提出多数大陆裂谷为一复杂的动力体系，系统论是全面研究这一复杂动力体系的有效方法。     

攀西地区重力均衡异常的研究

研究表明,康滇地轴及其东部地区属均衡补偿平衡区,西部属强烈上升的异常区。上升的原动力为板块碰撞的构造力与均衡调整力的综合。     

地震超声模型实验中的换能器

Digital modeling studies for evaluation of hydrogeological characteristics in Shadnagar granite basin,Andhra Pradesh,India

The use of digital models has increased significantly in recent years with the accessibility of fast computing machines. A variable dimensioned digital model was constructed for the Shadnagar granite basin using SPECTRUM-7 micro computer to integrate various hydrogeological characteristics and for their quantitative evaluation. The basin has an areal extent of 437 sq km and is demarcated with clear water divides in all directions. Transmissivity, recharge and discharge at each cell of the basin area were estimated by trial and error simulation of the hydrogeological phenomenon under steady state condition. Dynamic simulation at representative nodes facilitated the estimation of storage coefficient. The capability of the constructed model was established by the conformance of the simulated hydrographs with the actual behaviour of the ground water system. The entire studies ammended the earlier arrived estimates of various input/output hydrogeological parameters and evolved a methodology for efficient processing of aquifer simulation data     

发展中的板块边界:天山-贝加尔活动构造带

亚洲内陆的强地震密集地发生在天山-贝加尔一线,但该处并不存在一条连续的大断裂,学术界对这个问题的认识长期相左。文中分析了这条地震带的时空分布、分区特点、应力状态和活动周期,计算了欧亚大陆的布格重力异常场、均衡重力异常场,反演了上地幔的密度分布和剪切波速分布。发现在这个部位的70~250km的深部有一条北东向的密度、速度陡变带,它是新生代的冷地幔和热地幔的交界带,与浅部构造存在立交关系,对亚洲大陆的现今构造运动和应力场具有重要的控制作用。这个带的地震不同于传统意义上的板缘地震和板内地震,是一种因为深浅构造不同而造成的结构性地震,性质上为大陆内缘地震。文中还就深浅构造的空间立交关系、时间镜像关系进行了讨论,指出在南北地震带和伊朗东侧地震带的立交结构也与上地幔构造有关。天山-贝加尔活动构造带是正在发展中的板块边界,是大陆内部的一个典型构造,北侧为稳定的俄罗斯-西伯利亚次板块,南侧为活动的中国-东南亚次板块。     

Post-drilling destabilization of temperature profile in borehole Yaxcopoil-1, Mexico

As part of the International Continental Scientific Drilling Program (ICDP), the 1.5-km-deep borehole Yaxcopoil-1, located in the Chixculub meteor impact structure in Mexico, has undergone further study after drilling operations ceased. Temperature logs were repeated ten times at intervals 0.3–0.8, 15, 24 and 34 months after borehole shut-in. The logs bear a distinct signature of transient heat transfer by groundwater flow manifested by a gradual distortion of the linear temperature profile when a cold wave of 0.8–1.6°C amplitude was detected propagating downward from 145 to 312 m at a rate of 4–6 m/month. To understand the nature of this moving anomaly, a 20-day monitoring of the cold wave was carried out at a depth of 307 m that showed further cooling of 0.6°C during the first 16 days of the passage followed by temperature stabilisation. As an explanation of this unusual phenomenon, a theory is proposed, whereby the drilling mud has accumulated within the overlying and cooler highly porous and permeable karstic rocks during the drilling and migrates downward. The observed migration rate suggests a permeability higher than 10^?11 m². This indicates a high vulnerability to contamination of the only freshwater aquifer in the Yucatan region.
