时代呼唤：农业地质浮出水面

提到农业地质，人们不应当忘记这个名字：爱尔。1916年这位年轻的英国剑桥大学地质系教授对土壤产生了浓厚的兴趣，他认为世界工业的飞速发展，产生的废物会污染土壤。当他将一些土壤放到实验室研究时果然印证了他的设想。作为地质学家，他认为消除土壤侵蚀的关键应是首先采用地质方法进行调查，根据

A workshop of the IGCP-473 was held in Xinjiang, northwestern China, from August 9-21. It was attended by more than 70 scientists, including 29 from outside of China, i.eUnited States, Canada, Australia, Japan,Russia, United Kingdom, South Africa,Mongolia, Kyrgyzstan, and Khazakstan. The workshop was superbly organized by a team led by Prof. Mao Jingwen of Institute of

死海（约旦）里散半岛的重磁勘查

里散半岛位于非洲板块和阿拉伯板块交接处的死海盆地中。该盆地面积大，构造简单且有下沉运动，说明它是一拉张型盆地。由重力异常数据发现死海盆地可划分成沿南北延伸各约３０ｋｍ长的几个块体，里散半岛是其中最深的一个。中生代沉积厚度约６ｋｍ，更新世沉积厚度为９ｋｍ。死海盆地的拉张距离为２０ｋｍ，表明死海盆地的年龄约３．３Ｍａ。里散半岛下部的前寒武纪结晶基底磁化率较高，这与区内延续的构造活动性有关。

The Geologic Time Scale and the Italian stratigraphic record

The construction of the Geologic Time Scale (GTS) is a titanic scientific challenge that has been under way for two centuries and will require much dedicated effort in the future. Italy preserves a paramount stratigraphic record of Mesozoic and Cenozoic marine sediments that have been significant in the development of the modern GTS. The Italian stratigraphic record has been histori-cally important in introducing and defining the standard Chronostratigraphic Units (CUs) of the Neogene and Quaternary. Pelagic successions from Northern Apen-nines and Southern Alps have been used in the seventies for integrating the late Cretaceous-Paleogene Geomag-netic Polarity Time Scale (GPTS) with planktonic microfossil biostratieraohv and standard CUs. This was a major contribution to the construction of a new gener-ation of GTS based on integrated magnetobiochronol-ogy. The middle Miocene to early Pleistocene marinerecord from Sicily and southern Italy has been funda-mental for establishing the recently developed Astro-nomical Time Scale (ATS). In prospect, there are many potentials still to be exploited in the Italian marine stratigraphic record for implementing the GTS by defin-ing GSSPs of various CUs, improving magneto-biochronology and extending downwards the ATS.
