张宣地区壳幔演化与生态效应

人类的生存状况与地质环境密切相关。文章以张宣地区为例,阐述了由于该区强烈的幔壳隆升,导致区域性岩(矿)石、土壤的元素背景值异常,使得某些农作物、林果“优质高产”或“劣质低产”。异常的元素分布还会通过粮食、水果、蔬菜、水等饮食进入人体循环,直接影响人类的身体健康,甚至导致某些地方性疾病蔓延。研究表明,张宣地区的地貌景观是中生代以来地质构造演化的结果。幔壳运动是区域地质环境演变的主导因素。

Evolution of crust-mantle and its eco-environmental effects in Zhangjiakou-Xuanhua region

The living circumstances of human beings are closely related to the geological environment. As exemplified by the Zhangjiakou-West Beijing region, this paper describes the intensive mantle-crust uplift, which led to anomalous element background values for regional rocks (ores) and soils. As a result, some agricultural crops, forests and fruits are of “super-quality and high-yield” or of “poor-quality and low-yield”. The anomalous elements can find their way into grains, fruits, vegetables and drinking water; where they will then be taken in by human beings. This can directly affect human health and lead to the spread of some endemic diseases. Studies have shown that the geomorphological features in the Zhangjiakou-West Beijing region are the outcome of geotectonic evolution since the Mesozoic. Mantle-crust movement is the key factor leading to the evolution and change of the regional geological environment.
