我国首次为中岳嵩山测“身高”

7月20日上午，我国首次对嵩山“身高”进行法定测量启动仪式在登封举行。这次测量，预计今年8月中旬完成野外作业，8月底完成数据、资料、文字材料的整理并上报国家测绘局，最后由国务院审查后向社会发布。     

Upwelling Process of the Western Himalaya Mountains: Height and Velocity Estimation Evidenced by Formation and Evolution of the Zanda Basin,Tibet,China

<正>Based on field geological survey,stratigraphic section measurement and indoor comprehensive investigation,the Zanda Basin's tectonic location in the Himalaya Plate was ascertained,and the formation and evolution of the Zanda Basin during the Pliocene to Early Pleistocene was classified as six stages:(a) primary rift-faulting stage,(b) quick rift-faulting Stage,(c) intensive rift-faulting stage,(d) stasis stage,(e) secondary rift-faulting stage,and(f) secondary quick rift-faulting stage.Based on this six-staged formation-evolution theory of the Zanda Basin,the upwelling process of the Western Himalaya Mountains from the Pliocene to Early Pleistocene was classified as the following five stages:(a) slow upwelling stage(5.4-4.4 Ma),(b) mid-velocity upwelling stage(4.4-3.5 Ma),(c) quick upwelling stage(3.5-3.2 Ma),(d) upwelling-ceasing stage(3.2-2.7 Ma), and(e) quick upwelling stage(2.7 Ma).Research has shown that in the duration from the Early Pliocene(4.7 Ma) to the End of Pliocene(2.67 Ma),which lasted 2.03 million years,the Himalaya Mountains had uplifted 1500 m at a velocity of 0.74 mm/a;this belongs to a mid-velocity upwelling. During the 1.31 million years in the Early Stage of the Early Pleistocene,the Himalaya Mountains had risen up another 1500 m at a velocity of 1.15 mm/a;this is a rather quick upwelling.All of these data have shown that the upwelling of the Western Himalaya Mountains is along a complicated process with multi-stages,multi-velocities,and non-uniformitarian features.

中国全新世人群两性身高差异演变初析

两性身高差异对了解同一人群内两性间体质、生存策略及食谱构成等方面的异同具有重要意义。目前,中国全新世人群两性身高差异的分布状况及其演变过程尚不明确。本研究收集51组古代人群股骨最大长数据,选取合适公式重建各人群的男、女平均身高并计算不同时代人群的两性身高差异指数,探析中国古代人群两性身高差异的演变特征。结果显示：两性股骨最大长差异在新石器至铁器阶段呈增大趋势;男、女平均身高在新石器至青铜阶段显著降低,但在青铜至铁器阶段无明显变化;两性身高差异从新石器至青铜阶段显著增大,但在青铜至铁器阶段无明显变化。在新石器至青铜阶段,中国人群两性平均身高的降低可能与生存压力的增大和下肢功能性需求的降低密切相关;两性身高差异的增大表明女性平均身高下降程度要大于男性,这可能与两性分工的强化和食物精细化有关。
