Gas-bearing fluid influx sub-system for gas hydrate geological system in Shenhu Area, Northern South China Sea

Based on the comprehensive interpretation and study of the Neogene fracture system and diapiric structure, it can be concluded that the diapiric structures, high-angle fractures and vertical fissure system are the main gas-bearing fluid influx sub-system for gas hydrate geological system in Shenhu Area, northern South China Sea. The Neogene fractures widely developed in the study area may be classed into two groups: NW (NNW)-trending and NE (NNE)-trending. The first group was active in the Late Miocene, while the second one was active since the Pliocene. The NE (NNE)-trending fractures were characterized by lower activity strength and larger scale, and cut through the sediment layers deposited since the Pliocene. Within the top sediment layers, the high-angle fracture and vertical fissure system was developed. The diapiric structures display various types such as a turtle-back-like arch, weak piercing, gas chimney, and fracture (or crack, fissure). On the seismic profile, some diapiric structures show the vertical chimney pathway whose top is narrow and the bottom is wide, where some ones extend horizontally into pocket or flower-shaped structures and formed the seismic reflection chaotic zones. Within the overlying sediment layers of the diapiric structure, the tree branch, flower-shaped high-angle fractures and vertical fissures were developed and became the pathway and migration system of the gas-bearing fluid influx. In the study area, the diapiric structures indicate a high temperature/over pressure system ever developed. Closely associated and abundant bright-spots show the methane-bearing fluid influx migrated vertically or horizontally through the diapiric structures, high-angle fractures and vertical fissures. In the place where the temperature and pressure conditions were favor for the formation of gas hydrate, the hydrate reservoir deposition sub-system was developed.

夏玉米低定额畦灌田间试验研究

为了合理利用水资源,探索实现低定额均匀灌溉的适宜方法和技术路线,设计作物高效用水的有限灌溉制度,在陕西省杨凌区中壤土玉米地开展了不同畦田规格和灌水定额对土壤水分及玉米产量影响的田间试验。结果表明:对于田面坡度一定的试验田块,入畦单宽流量在3～6lm/s范围内,畦田宽度在4m以内时,各处理小区的土壤平均含水量无显著性差异,但畦田内土壤水分分布却有不同差异,当畦宽2～3m,畦长50m时可达到较高灌水效率(Ea>80%)和灌水均匀度(DU>80%);玉米拔节-抽雄期的灌水定额处理对玉米的生长存在明显影响;不同灌水定额对作物产量、水分利用效率影响显著。
