Mid-ocean ridge basalts (MORBs) from East Pacific Rise (EPR) 13 degrees N are analysed for major and trace elements, both of which show a continuous evolving trend. Positive MgO-Al2O3 and negative MgO-Sc relationships manifest the cotectic crystallization of plagioclase and olivine, which exist with the presence of plagioclase and olivine phenocrysts and the absence of clinopyroxene phenocrysts. However, the fractionation of clinopyroxene is proven by the positive correlation of MgO and CaO. Thus, MORB samples are believed to show a "clinopyroxene paradox". The highest magnesium-bearing MORB sample E13-3B (MgO = 9.52%) is modelled for isobaric crystallization with COMAGMAT at different pressures. Observed CaO/Al2O3 ratios can be derived from E13-3B only by fractional crystallization at pressure > 4 +/- 1 kbar, which necessitates clinopyroxene crystallization and is not consistent with cotectic crystallization of olivine plus plagioclase in the magma chamber (at pressure similar to 1 kbar). The initial compositions of the melt inclusions, which could represent potential parental magmas, are reconstructed by correcting for post-entrapment crystallization (PEC). The simulated crystallization of initial melt inclusions also produce observed CaO/Al2O3 ratios only at > 4 +/- 1 kbar, in which clinopyroxene takes part in crystallization. It is suggested that MORB magmas have experienced clinopyroxene fractionation in the lower crust, in and below the Moho transition zone. The MORB magmas have experienced transition from clinopyroxene+plagioclase+olivine crystallization at > 4 +/- 1 kbar to mainly olivine+plagioclase crystallization at < 1 kbar, which contributes to the explanation of the "clinopyroxene paradox".

The equatorial Pacific upwelling zone has been suspected of playing an important role in the global atmospheric CO2 changes associated with glacial-interglacial cycles. In order to assess the influencing scope of the surface water deglacial delta(13)C minimum in the tropical low-latitude Pacific, the core DGKS9603, collected from the middle Okinawa Trough, was examined for 4513 C records of planktonic foraminifera N. dutertrei and G. ruber. The planktonic foraminiferal delta(13)C records show a clear decreasing event from 20 to 6 cal. kaBP., which is characterized by long duration of about 14 ka and amplitude shift of 0.4 x 10(-3). Its minimum value occurred at 15.7 cal kaBP. The event shows fairly synchrony with the surface water deglacial delta(13)C minimum identified in the tropical Pacific and its marginal seas. Because there is no evidence in planktonic foraminiferal fauna and 45180 records for upwelling and river runoff enhancement, the broad deglacial delta(13)C minimum event in planktonic foraminiferal records revealed in core DGKS9603 might have been the direct influencing result of the deglacial surface water of the tropical Pacific. The identification for the event in the Okinawa Trough provides new evidence that the water evolution in the tropical low-latitude Pacific plays a key role in large regional, even global carbon cycle.

During the DY105-12, 14cruise (RN DAYANG YIHAO, November 2003) on East Pacific Rise (EPR) 12-13 degrees N, the submarine hydrothermal activity was investigated and the CTD hydrocast was carried out at EPR12 degrees 39 ' N - 12 degrees 54 ' N. From the temperature anomalies and the concentrations of magnesium, chlorine, bromine in seawater samples, we discover that magnesium depletes 9.3%-22.4%, chlorine and bromine enrich 10.3%-28.7% and 10.7%-29.0% respectively relative to normal seawater at the stations which have chemistry anomalies, moreover temperature and chemistry anomalies are at the same layer. The depletion of magnesium in the plume may be caused by a fluid lacking of magnesium which rises after the hydrothermal fluid reaches the equilibrium with ambient seawater, the enrichment of chlorine and bromine might be the result of inputting later brine which is generated by phase separation due to hydrothermal activity. In addition, the Br/CI ratio in the abnormal layers at the survey area is identical to that in seawater, which implies that halite dissolution (or precipitation) occurs neither when the fluid is vented nor when hydrothermal fluid entraining ambient seawater rises to form plume. From the abnormal instance at E55 station, it is very possible that there might exist a new hydrothermal vent site.

The mineralogical and geochemical characteristics of Fe-oxyhydroxide samples from one dredge station (long. 103 degrees 54.48'W, lat. 12 degrees 42.30'N, water depth 2655 m) on the East Pacific Rise near lat 13 degrees N were analyzed by XRD, ICP-AES, and ICP-MS. Most Fe-oxyhydroxides are amorphous, with a few sphalerite microlites. In comparison with Fe-oxyhydroxides from other fields, the variable ranges in the chemical composition of Fe-oxyhydroxide samples are very narrow; their Fe, Si, and Mn contents were 39.90%, 8.92%, and 1.59%, respectively; they have high Cu (0.88%-1.85%) and Co (65x10(-6)-704x10(-6)) contents, and contain Co+Cu+Zn+Ni > 1.01%. The trace-element (As, Co, Ni, Cu, Zn, Ba, Sr) and major-element (Fe, Ca, Al, Mg) contents of these samples are in the range of hydrothermal sulfide from the East Pacific Rise near 13 degrees N, reflecting that this type of Fe-oxyhydroxide constitutes a secondary oxidation product of hydrothermal sulfide. The Fe-oxyhydroxide samples from one dredge station on the East Pacific Rise near 13 degrees N are lower in Sigma REE (5.44x10(-6)-17.01x10(-6)), with a distinct negative Ce anomaly (0.12-0.28). The Fe-oxyhydroxide samples have similar chondrite-normalized rare-earth-element (REE) patterns to that of seawater, and they are very different from the REE composition characteristics of hydrothermal plume particles and hydrothermal fluids, showing that the REEs of Fe-oxyhydroxide are a major constituent of seawater and that the Fe-oxyhydroxides can become a sink of REE from seawater. The quick settling of hydrothermal plume particles resulted in the lower REE content and higher Mn content of these Fe-oxyhydroxides, which are captured in part of the V and P from seawater by adsorption. The Fe-oxyhydroxides from one dredge station on the East Pacific Rise near 13 degrees N were formed by secondary oxidation in a low temperature, oxygenated environment. In comparison with the elemental (Zn, Cd, Pb, Fe, Co, Cu) average content of hydrothermal sulfide samples from the East Pacific Rise near 13 degrees N, the Zn, Cd, and Pb contents of the Fe-oxyhydroxides are lower, and their Fe, Co, and Cu contents are higher.

The obduction of equatorial 13 degrees C Water in the Pacific is investigated using a simulated passive tracer of the Consortium for Estimating the Circulation and Climate of the Ocean (ECCO). The result shows that the 13 degrees C Water initialized in the region 8 degrees N-8 degrees S, 130 degrees-90 degrees W enters the surface mixed layer in the eastern tropical Pacific, mainly through upwelling near the equator, in the Costa Rica Dome, and along the coast of Peru. Approximately two-thirds of this obduction occurs within 10 years after the 13 degrees C Water being initialized, with the upper portion of the water mass reaching the surface mixed layer in only about a month. The obduction of the 13 degrees C Water helps to maintain a cool sea surface temperature year-round, equivalent to a surface heat flux of about -6.0 W m(-2) averaged over the eastern tropical Pacific (15 degrees S-15 degrees N, 130 degrees W-eastern boundary) for the period of integration (1993-2006). During El Nino years, when the thermocline deepens as a consequence of the easterly wind weakening, the obduction of the 13 degrees C Water is suppressed, and the reduced vertical entrainment generates a warming anomaly of up to 10 W m(-2) in the eastern tropical Pacific and in particular along the coast of Peru, providing explanations for the warming of sea surface temperature that cannot be accounted for by local winds alone. The situation is reversed during La Nina years.

The origin and pathway of the thermostad water in the eastern equatorial Pacific Ocean, often referred to as the equatorial 13 degrees C Water, are investigated using a simulated passive tracer and its adjoint, based on circulation estimates of a global general circulation model. Results demonstrate that the source region of the 13 degrees C Water lies well outside the tropics. In the South Pacific, some 13 degrees C Water is formed northeast of New Zealand, confirming an earlier hypothesis on the water's origin. The South Pacific origin of the 13 degrees C Water is also related to the formation of the Eastern Subtropical Mode Water (ESTMW) and the Sub-Antarctic Mode Water (SAMW). The portion of the ESTMW and SAMW that eventually enters the density range of the 13 degrees C Water (25.8 < sigma(theta) < 26.6 kg m(-3)) does so largely by mixing. Water formed in the subtropics enters the equatorial region predominantly through the western boundary, while its interior transport is relatively small. The fresher North Pacific ESTMW and Central Mode Water (CMW) are also important sources of the 13 degrees C Water. The ratio of the southern versus the northern origins of the water mass is about 2 to 1 and tends to increase with time elapsed from its origin. Of the total volume of initially tracer-tagged water in the eastern equatorial Pacific, approximately 47.5% originates from depths above sigma(theta) = 25.8 kg m(-3) and 34.6% from depths below sigma(theta) = 26.6 kg m(-3), indicative of a dramatic impact of mixing on the route of subtropical water to becoming the 13 degrees C Water. Still only a small portion of the water formed in the subtropics reaches the equatorial region, because most of the water is trapped and recirculates in the subtropical gyre.

热带西太平洋环流是副热带环流与热带环流关键分量,毗邻西太平洋暖池,对暖池的形成与变化有重要的作用。然而,目前为止,热带西太平洋环流还有许多问题,包括动力结构还不清楚。因此,论文针对热带西太平洋环流的研究不仅在太平洋环流动力学上有理论意义,而且对气候变化的研究和预测也具有理论和实用价值。 太平洋北赤道流分叉是大洋,特别是太平洋西部边界流海域的一个非常突出的环流现象,它是大洋中副热带大流环和热带流环的发源地,很大程度上决定着海盆尺度的大洋环流结构,在大洋环流动力学上具有非常重要的意义和地位;同时它决定着大洋西边界区质量、热量的经向输送,进而对气候变化产生重要影响,是气候系统中不可忽视的重要分量。因此,北赤道流分叉的研究,不仅具有在海洋动力学上科学意义,而且对气候变化和预测也有实践意义。 从30年代至今,关于北赤道流分叉的研究有两种,一是根据实际观测水文数据,二是由数值模拟结果得出结论。用观测数据做出的结果,相对比较接近实际,但资料的分辨率较差,会引起估算结果的偏差;数值模拟结果有较高的时空分辨率,但由于模式本身的某些缺点会导致结果偏离实际。目前为止,诸多有关北赤道流分叉的结果,如分叉纬度变化的结论很不一致。所以,如何找到一种高时空分辨率的数据或提出一个比较符合物理实际并得到实测数据验证的数值模式是研究北赤道流分叉的关键。 本文用1992年10月到2004年12月高时空分辨率的卫星高度计数据,通过计算迹线的方法,确定了北赤道流分叉的纬度。结果表明,年平均分叉纬度约在13.4°N. 关于北赤道流分叉的季节变化,6月份发生在最南端(12.9°N),12月份发生在最北端(14.1°N)。12年的平均结果显示,7月份的分叉纬度比6月份和8月份明显偏大,这是局地风应力旋度导致的结果。本文同时研究了北赤道流分叉的年际变化,结果表明在厄尔尼诺年,北赤道流分叉纬度北移,在拉尼娜年,分叉纬度南移。 在热带西太平洋地区,特别是西边界流区和印度尼西亚贯通流邻近海域,岛屿众多,地形非常复杂,历史水文数据和测流数据又极少,所以几乎无法用分析观测数据的方法求得这一海域海洋环流,特别是次表层环流结构的深刻了解。因此,本文利用一个既适用于开阔大洋又适宜于地形变化剧烈海域的混合坐标海洋模式HYCOM,模拟了热带西太平洋环流,特别是西边界流及其相关海流,如,新几内亚沿岸潜流、棉兰老潜流、赤道潜流和印度尼西亚贯通流的气候态及其月、季变化。模式结果再现了该海域主要流系及其季节变化,模拟得到的海面高度场与卫星高度计数据基本一致;模拟所得的诸多关键断面上的海流、温度和盐度结构与实地观测数据(Johnson et al., 2002)有良好的一致性,说明本文的HYCOM模拟结果是比较可信、可靠的,可以用来做西太平洋环流分析用。本文得到结果如下: (1)赤道潜流究竟起源于何处,是赤道环流动力学上一个重要问题。鉴于实测数据缺乏和赤道潜流起源邻近海域地形复杂,相关研究很少,仅有的几项研究结果认为赤道潜流起源于135-137°E。本文一系列经向跨赤道断面的纬向流速模拟结果表明,赤道潜流最西源于129-130°E之间;另外,事实上,从200米层水平环流的模拟结果来看,赤道潜流有4个源头,各季有所不同:(i) 新几内亚沿岸潜流在135°E附近汇入赤道潜流;与Tsuchiya et al.(1989)结论相同;(ii) 来自棉兰老海流,这与Lu and McCreary(1995),Gu and Philander(1997)结论相同;(iii) 南海水经民都洛海峡、苏禄海和苏拉威西海西部由哈马黑拉岛以北进入赤道潜流,特别是,在春、夏、秋季;(iv) 印度洋海水经班达海和马鲁古海沿苏拉威西东岸北上沿哈马黑拉岛以东汇入赤道潜流(特别是春季)。所以,赤道潜流就水源来说,它有来自南海、印度洋和棉兰老以东的海水,就其起源来说,还是应该算从129-130°E开始的。 (2)棉兰老潜流发现于80年代末,尽管棉兰老潜流的起源对这一海域环流动力学非常重要,但由于资料缺乏,其起源的研究甚少。本文的模拟结果表明棉兰老潜流似乎有一部分水来自棉兰老海流,这主要在300-500米层。但更重要的是,从马鲁古海西边界(苏拉威西岛以东)向北的一支流更是棉兰老潜流的重要水源,说明棉兰老潜流的水源有相当部分是来自南半球,在600,700米层,特别是800,900和1000米层,棉兰老海流流速急剧减小至几乎看不到,而棉兰老潜流非常突出,其水源主要来自南半球苏拉威西岛东部向北的流动。至于棉兰老潜流的去处,500,600米层的模拟结果显示,棉兰老潜流在12-13°N附近,一大部分向东流去,一小部分向南加入棉兰老海流。在700米层以下,棉兰老潜流则在12°N向东流去,这与Hu and Cui(1989, 1991)和Wang and Hu(1998)的结果一致。 (3)关于印度尼西亚贯通流。HYCOM模拟的印度尼西亚贯通流年平均状况指出:250米以浅,印度尼西亚贯通流由西太平洋主要经由望加锡海峡进入东印度洋;300米以深,印度尼西亚贯通流反向,由东印度洋经由弗罗勒斯海、班达海和马鲁古海的西部边界进入太平洋。由200米层环流可以看出,从民都洛海峡南下的南海水是进入望加锡海峡构成印度尼西亚贯通流的主要的来源,另一小部分来自棉兰老海流。 (4)关于黑潮南海分支。在本文的模拟结果中,一年四季都有明显的黑潮分支由吕宋北端向西北进入南海后,沿大约21°N附近向西南流动,宽约100-200公里,深达300-400米,最大流速一般可达20厘米/秒,最大在冬季,可达40厘米/秒,流量约为6.5Sv,冬季强,5、9月份偏弱。证明了仇德忠、杨天鸿、郭忠信(1984)和郭忠信、杨天鸿、仇德忠(1985)关于南海黑潮分支存在的论述,并在一定程度上定量的解释了其季节变化规律。

Spawning behavior of artificially matured Japanese eels Anguillo japonica in captivity was investigated using a DVD Video image system. Following a routine hormone treatment technique for this fish, female eels were artificially matured by weekly intramuscular injections of salmon pituitary extracts (SPE) at a dosage of 40 mg kg(-1) BW for a total of 7-11 doses to induce ovarian maturation, while male eels received weekly intramuscular injections of human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG) at a dosage of 1000 IU kg(-1) BW for a total of 6-11 doses at 18 degrees C to induce testicular maturation in a separate aquarium. In this experiment, three pairs of such hormone-treated matured eels were acclimatized in seawater in 1.5 m(3) experimental aquaria with or without shelters at 20 degrees C for 24 h. Twenty four hours after the acclimatization terminated, the females received SPE injections to boost maturation and ovulation. Twenty four hours following these injections, the females received injections of HCG (1000 IU per fish, HCG injection) and 17 alpha-hydroxyprogesterone (2 mg per fish) to induce ovulation, while males were given HCG injections (1000 IU per fish, HCG injection) to induce spermiation. Video taping started after the 24 h acclimatization terminated and last for a total of 96 h. Before the HCG injections, both sexes were inactive, staying on the bottom or in shelters if available. Following these HCG injections, they became active and frequently left the bottom swimming in the water column. During the 24 h following HCG injections, activity accounted for 67% and 45% of the total activity in no shelter treatment for females and males, respectively, in comparison with 77% and 78% in shelter treatment. Activity was significantly more pronounced during this phase than during other phases for each sex in either shelter treatment. Egg release and sperm ejection occurred in the water column around the time eels' activity reached peaks. Eels either returned into the shelters or stayed motionlessly on the bottom of the aquaria after egg release and sperm ejection. Eight out of nine (89%) females in no shelter treatment spontaneously released eggs with a total of 11 batches 14-18 h following HCG injections, in contrast with four out of nine (44%) females releasing eggs for 4 batches 16-20 h in shelter treatment. Males arrived at activity peaks 11-13 h following HCG injections in no shelter treatment, 2-4 h ahead of the females (14-16 h), in comparison with 8-11 h in shelter treatment with 5-6 h ahead of the females (14-17 h). Courtship behavior indicative of spawning such as pairing, chasing and touching bodies was not observed in the eels in this study. However, on many occasions, eels of both sexes (male-female or female-female) were found to "cruise together" in water column for a short time period or frequently come together prior to releasing eggs and ejecting sperm, suggesting the possibility of group mating in artificially matured Japanese eels.

植物有机体稳定碳同位素组成受植物生长期间气候环境因子的影响,包含了大量的环境信息。要真正理解植物体同位素组成所包含的环境信息首先要研究植物体同位素组成与环境之间的关系。文章通过分析2002年和2003年青藏高原东部青海省门源县境内隶属于19科41属51种植物叶片的δ~(13)C值,研究高寒草甸植物稳定碳同位素组成的年间变化及其与环境因子的关系,分析影响δ~(13)C值变化的关键因子。结果表明,所测植物的δ~(13)C值分布在一个很小的范围-29.2‰~-24.9‰之间,平均值为-26.9‰,说明所测植物的光合作用均通过C3途径实现,这可能与该研究区较低温度有关。研究发现一年生植物δ~(13)C值明显低于多年生植物,而且一年生和多年生植物δ~(13)C值之间的差异在2002年(t=-3.031,P〈0.01)和2003年(t=-3.567,P〈0.001)均能达到显著性水平,表明多年生植物水分利用效率显著高于一年生植物,能更好的适应该地区寒冷干燥的低温环境。两年间植物δ~(13)C值有明显不同,2003年显著低于2002年(t=6.786,P〈0.001)。通过分析两年间环境因子的变化认为植物叶片δ~(13)C值的年间变化主要是由于降水的变化引起的,随降雨量的增加而降低。不同植物种δ~(13)C值年间变化差别很大,反应了植物对环境变化的不同响应。在植被恢复中应选用植物δ~(13)C值随环境变化存在较大差异的物种,因为此类物种能够采取不同的对策适应该地区环境的变化。

Open-top chambers were used to estimate the possible effects of global warming on delta C-13 of seven plant species grown in alpine meadow ecosystem. The delta C-13 values of plant species were lower after long-term growth in open-top chambers. In the course of experiment, temperature significantly increased inside the chambers by 4 degrees C. Plant species grown at a lower elevation above sea level had higher delta C-13 values as compared to those grown at a higher elevation. This was in accordance with the effect of open-top chamber on delta C-13 values in plants. Greater availability of CO2 and lower water vapor as indicated by an increase in discrimination against (CO2)-C-13, probably result in more negative delta C-13 values of plants because higher stomatal conductance increases availability of CO2 and causes greater discrimination against (CO2)-C-13. The plant species studied could be the indicator species for testing global warming by the change in carbon isotope ratios at the two growth temperatures.

Junggar Basin has a large amount of recoverable reserves, However, due to the unfavorable factors, such as bad seismic data quality, complex structure with many faults and less wells, the exploration of oil and gas is still relatively limited, so advanced theoretical guidance and effective technical supports are desirable. Based on the theories of sedimentology, as well as comprehensive studies of outcrops, seismic data, drilling data and setting of this area, the paper establishes the isochronous correlation framework, and analyzes the sedimentary facies types and provenance direction, and obtains the profile and plain maps of the sedimentary facies combined with the logging constrained inversion. Then the paper analyzes the reservoir controlling factors, reservoir lithology attribute, 4-property relationship and sensibility based on the sedimentary facies research, and sets up a 3D geological model using facies controlled modeling. Finally, the paper optimizes some target areas with the conclusions of reservoir, structure and reservoir formation.Firstly, the paper establishs the isochronous correlation framework by the seismic data, drilling data and setting of this area. The sedimentary facies in Tai13 well block are braided river and meandering river according to the analysis of the lithology attribute, logging facies and sedimentary structure attribute of outcrop. The concept of “wetland” is put forward for the first time. The provenance direction of Badaowan and Qigu formation is obtained by the geology setting, sedimentary setting and paleocurrent direction. The paper obtains the profile and plain maps of the sedimentary facies from the sand value of the wells and the sand thickness maps from the logging constrained inversion. Then, this paper takes characteristics and control factors of the Jurassic reservoirs analysis on thin section observation, scanning transmission electron microscope observation and find out the petrology characteristics of reservoir, space types of reservoir and lithofacies division. In this area, primary pores dominate in the reservoir pores, which believed that sedimentation played the most important roles of the reservoir quality and diagenesis is the minor factor influencing secondary porosity. Using stochastic modeling technique,the paper builds quantitative 3-D reservoir Parameter. Finally, combined the study of structure and reservoir formation, the reservoir distribution regularity is concluded: (a) structures control the reservoir formation and accumulation. (b) Locating in the favorable sedimentary facies belt. And the area which meets these conditions mentioned above is a good destination for exploration.

The loess-paleosols in the Chinese loess plateau and Europe are the main eolian sediment sequences in mid-latitude area of north hemisphere. They record not only the paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental processes since the last interglacial, but also the configuration of magnetic field during polarity transition. Comparisons of environmental magnetism, paleomagnetism and climate proxy analysis has been made for the loess/paleosol sequences in Datong and Czech Republic. The Datong loess/paleosol sequence is composed of the Holocene soil SO, the last glacial loess LI, the last interglacial soil SI and the upper penultimate loess L2. A basalt layer occurs in L2. The main magnetic minerals in LI and SI are magnetite, maghemite and ilmenite. The presence of local volcanic elastics in the loess and the characteristics of the magnetic minerals indicate that there are local materials in Datong loess, which differentiate the Datong loess from the central and eastern loess of the Chinese Loess Plateau. In addition, there are four polarity events in Datong loess, which are generally consistent with Gothenburg> Mono Lake, Laschamp and Blake events. Some signals of the East Asia monsoon were recorded in the Datong loess/paleosol sequences. Magnetic susceptibility, the content of >63um grains and the organic matter are used as climate proxies, which are similar to those of the typical eolian sediments in the loess plateau. In addition, it is possible that the Datong loess also recorded the Younger Dryas and the climatic fluctuations during the Holocene. The main magnetic minerals in the loess/paleosol at Znojmo section are magnetite, maghemite, hematite, pyrite, pyrrhotite and goethite. The morphology of these grains reveals that the iron sulfides originated from the eluvium loam above hypothetical ore deposits in the vicinity of the section or glaciofluvial sediments from nearby glacial margins. The pattern of the susceptibility variation at Dolni Vestonice section is coincident with that of the organic matter content. The grain size variation along the section recorded the climate instability since the last interglacial. The climate events in the Dolni Vestonice section may be correlated with the Heinrich events recorded in North Atlantic sediments, suggesting they controlled by the same marine-continent climate system.
