深水沉积层序特点及构成要素 总被引:6,自引:0,他引:6
本文在回顾当前国际上深水沉积研究热点的基础上,结合在墨西哥湾深水研究的成果系统描述了深水沉积的定义、形成机理、深水沉积层序及深水沉积构成要素的特点.深水沉积主要是在重力流作用下深水环境的沉积,主要形成于相对水平面下降和早期上升的时期,主要分布在低位体系域中.深水层序以凝缩段为边界,块状搬运沉积最早形成并直接位于层序界面上,其上被河道-天然堤沉积所覆盖.典型深水沉积的要素主要由河道、天然堤及越岸沉积、板状砂、块状搬运沉积等构成,这些沉积要素时空上有序地分布.深水河道是物源的主要通道和沉积的重要场所,从上游至下游河道弯曲度增加,能量逐渐减弱.侧向迁移明显,垂向上由富砂的顺直河道演化为相对富泥的弯曲河道.天然堤及越岸沉积以泥质为主,天然堤沿河道呈楔状分布,其近端砂岩含量高,地层厚且倾角较陡;远端砂岩含量低,地层薄且平缓,侧向连续性好但垂向连续性差.板状砂主要为深水扇前缘非限制性沉积,可分为块型和层型.块型侧向连续性好,同时垂向连通性高.层型侧向连续性好,垂向连通性差.块状搬运沉积主要是低水位期坡上沉积物失稳形成的各类滑塌体及碎屑流,其对下伏地层侵蚀明显,分布广泛,变形构造常见,可作为油气良好的封盖层. 相似文献

The Mississippi Fan is a large, mud-dominated submarine fan over 4 km thick, deposited in the deep Gulf of Mexico during the
late Pliocene and Pleistocene. Analysis of 19,000 km of multifold seismic data defined 17 seismic sequences, each characterized
by channel, levee, and associated overbank deposits, as well as mass transport deposits. At the base of nine sequences are
a series of seismic facies consisting of mounded, hummocky, chaotic, and subparallel reflections, which constitute 10–20%
of the sediments in each the sequences. These facies are externally mounded and occur in two general regions of the fan: (1)
in the upper and middle fan they are elongate in shape and mimic the channel's distribution; (2) in the middle fan to lower
fan they are characterized by a fan-shaped distribution, increasing in width downfan. These facies are interpreted to have
formed as disorganized slides, debris flows, and turbidites (informally called “mass transport complexes”).
Overlying this basal interval, characteristic of all sequences, are well-developed channel-levee systems that constitute 80–90%
of the fan's sediments. Channels consist of high amplitude, subparallel reflections, whereas the flanking levee sediments
appear as subparallel reflections that have high amplitudes at the base changing upward to low amplitude. The vertical change
in amplitude may reflect a decrease in grain size and bed thicknesses. Overbank sediments are characterized by interbedded
subparallel to hummocky and mounded reflections, suggesting both turbidites from the channel, as well as slides and debris
flows derived both locally and from the slope updip. 相似文献

ABSTRACTThe sinking of the MV Rena on Astrolabe Reef (Otaiti) in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand, resulted in the release of oil and ship debris, including dangerous goods carried as cargo. Two key questions of concern to the public and environmental managers were posed immediately: what was the impact of the Rena oil spill and how long would it take for the marine environment to recover? The research that began immediately after the ship grounded provided answers, as documented in this special issue. 相似文献

SUMMARY Many hydrological systems exhibit long periods of quiescent behaviour, broken only occasionally by short periods of comparatively intense activity. Clear examples arise in stream run-off measurements and in ground water table observations. The number of measurements recorded can then be considerably reduced by reducing the frequency of recording over the quiescent periods. The paper describes an algorithm whereby this reduction is attained in an optimum manner. When recordings can be accepted directly by a computer, the algorithm simply provides a translation programme Whereby the quality of data may be very considerably reduced. Other applications are, however, discussed. The problems of Optimum representations is first presented, and choices of norm indicated. Using a particular norm, it is shown that the optimum representation is characterised, under certain limiting conditions, by the property that the second moments of the second derivatives are constant over all optimum intervals. This characterisation is used to construct an iterative difference scheme, whereby a certain truncation error is accepted. Sufficient conditions for stability of the scheme are determined and these incorporated into a computer programme. The programme has been tested on a variety of data with satisfactory results. In conclusion, a further development of the method is indicated. 相似文献

The magnetic storm on November 2004 was characterized by a high solar wind pressure and thus offers a unique opportunity to test the Hill–Siscoe formula (H–S) for the polar cap potential (PCP). To estimate the polar cap potential, we use the Weimer Statistical Convection Model (WCM), and the Assimilative Mapping of Ionospheric Electrodynamics Model (AMIE), based on ingestion of a number of data sets. H–S is in excellent agreement with WCM, and with AMIE during times when DMSP is used in the latter. The implication is that the AMIE conductivity model yields conductivities that are too high by a factor of 2–3. Both H–S and WCM display saturation effects, although WCM is more severe. The two methods track well until an IEF of about 20 mV/m occurs, where H–S continues to increase while WCM levels off. Even at high electric field values, the pressure increases the denominator of the H–S formula by 60%, keeping the potential lower than its saturation value. There are several H–S points above 250 kV, even up to 400 kV, that are not found in WCM and occur right after a rapid transition from Bz north to south. For Bz north, we find evidence for a saturation effect on the PCP at large IEF, little effect as a function of solar wind velocity, and an increase of the PCP with increasing pressure. This seems to rule out viscous interaction but may involve geometric changes in the high-altitude polar cusp that affect recombination there for Bz north. 相似文献

Rates of surficial sediment mixing and sediment burial are measured in Shagawa Lake, Minnesota, using radionuclide tracers. Based on 106Ru profiles in 16 cores, mixing rates average 13 cm2/yr within the upper 9 cm of sediment. Two other nuclides, 210Pb and 137Cs, provide further evidence for calculation of mixing rates. In addition, 210Pb profiles estimate sediment burial rates (about 0.4 cm/yr). Mixing estimates are shown to be fairly insensitive both to uncertainties in sediment burial rates and to temporal patterns of 106Ru deposition. 相似文献

Cusp geometry in MHD simulations 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

The MHD simulations described here show that the latitude of the high-altitude cusp decreases as the IMF swings from North to South, that there is a pronounced dawn–dusk asymmetry at high-altitude associated with a dawn–dusk component of the IMF, and that at the same time there is also a pronounced dawn–dusk asymmetry at low-altitude. The simulations generate a feature that represents what has been called the cleft. It appears as a tail (when the IMF has a By component) attached to the cusp, extending either toward the dawn flank or the dusk flank depending on the dawn–dusk orientation of the IMF. This one-sided cleft connects the cusp to the magnetospheric sash. We compare cusp geometry predicted by MHD simulations against published observations based on Hawkeye and DMSP data. Regarding the high-altitude predictions, the comparisons are not definitive, mainly because the observations are incomplete or mutually inconsistent. Regarding the low-altitude prediction of a strong dawn–dusk asymmetry, the observations are unambiguous and are in good qualitative agreement with the prediction. 相似文献
