Diurnal, seasonal and annual variation in net ecosystem CO2 exchange of an alpine shrubland on Qinghai-Tibetan plateau

Thus far, grassland ecosystem research has mainly been focused on low-lying grassland areas, whereas research on high-altitude grassland areas, especially on the carbon budget of remote areas like the Qinghai-Tibetan plateau is insufficient. To address this issue, flux of CO2 were measured over an alpine shrubland ecosystem (37 degrees 36'N, 101 degrees 18'E; 325 above sea level [a. s. l.]) on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, China, for 2 years (2003 and 2004) with the eddy covariance method. The vegetation is dominated by formation Potentilla fruticosa L. The soil is Mol-Cryic Cambisols. To interpret the biotic and abiotic factors that modulate CO2 flux over the course of a year we decomposed net ecosystem CO2 exchange (NEE) into its constituent components, and ecosystem respiration (R-eco). Results showed that seasonal trends of annual total biomass and NEE followed closely the change in leaf area index. Integrated NEE were -58.5 and -75.5 g C m(-2), respectively, for the 2003 and 2004 years. Carbon uptake was mainly attributed from June, July, August, and September of the growing season. In July, NEE reached seasonal peaks of similar magnitude (4-5 g C m(-2) day(-1)) each of the 2 years. Also, the integrated night-time NEE reached comparable peak values (1.5-2 g C m(-2) day(-1)) in the 2 years of study. Despite the large difference in time between carbon uptake and release (carbon uptake time < release time), the alpine shrubland was carbon sink. This is probably because the ecosystem respiration at our site was confined significantly by low temperature and small biomass and large day/night temperature difference and usually soil moisture was not limiting factor for carbon uptake. In general, R-eco was an exponential function of soil temperature, but with season-dependent values of Q(10). The temperature-dependent respiration model failed immediately after rain events, when large pulses of R-eco were observed. Thus, for this alpine shrubland in Qinghai-Tibetan plateau, the timing of rain events had more impact than the total amount of precipitation on ecosystem R-eco and NEE.

Molecular phylogeny and biogeography of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau endemic Nannoglottis (Asteraceae)

All taxa endemic to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau are hypothesized to have originated in situ or from immediately adjacent areas because of the relatively recent formation of the plateau since the Pliocene, followed by the large-scaled biota extinction and recession caused by the Quaternary ice sheet. However, identification of specific progenitors remains difficult for some endemics, especially some endemic genera. Nannoglottis, with about eight species endemic to this region, is one such genus. Past taxonomic treatments have suggested its relationships with four different tribes of Asteraceae. We intend to identify the closest relatives of Nannoglottis by evaluating the level of monophyly, tribal delimitation, and systematic position of the genus by using molecular data from ndhF gene, trnL-F, and ITS region sequences. We find that all sampled species of Nannoglottis are a well-defined monophyly. This supports all recent taxonomic treatments of Nannoglottis, in which all sampled species were placed in one broadly re-circumscribed genus. Nannoglottis is most closely related to the Astereae, but stands as an isolated genus as the first diverging lineage of the tribe, without close relatives. A tentative relationship was suggested for Nannoglottis and the next lineage of the tribe was based on the ITS topology, the "basal group," which consists of seven genera from the Southern Hemisphere. Such a relationship is supported by some commonly shared plesiomorphic morphological characters. Despite the very early divergence of Nannoglottis in the Astereae, the tribe must be regarded to have its origin in Southern Hemisphere rather than in Asia, because based on all morphological, molecular, biogeographical, and fossil data, the Asteraceae and its major lineages (tribes) are supposed to have originated in the former area. Long-distance dispersal using Southeast Asia as a steppingstone from Southern Hemisphere to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau is the most likely explanation for this unusual biogeographic link of Nannoglottis. The 23-32-million-year divergence time between Nannoglottis and the other Astereae estimated by DNA sequences predated the formation of the plateau. This estimation is further favored by the fossil record of the Asteraceae and the possible time of origin of the Astereae. Nannoglottis seems to have reached the Qinghai-Tibet area in the Oligocene-Eocene and then re-diversified with the uplift of the plateau. The molecular infragenetic phylogeny of the genus identifies two distinct clades, which reject the earlier infrageneric classification based on the arrangement of the involucral bracts and the length of the ligules, but agree well with the habits and ecological preferences of its current species. The "alpine shrub" vs. "coniferous forest" divergence within Nannoglottis was estimated at about 3.4 million years ago when the plateau began its first large-scale uplifting and the coniferous vegetation began to appear. Most of the current species at the "coniferous forest" clade of the genus are estimated to have originated from 1.02 to 1.94 million years ago, when the second and third uprisings of the plateau occurred, the climate oscillated and the habitats were strongly changed. The assumed evolution, speciation diversity, and radiation of Nannoglottis based on molecular phylogeny and divergence times agree well with the known geological and paleobotanical histories of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau.

铜在水蒸气相中溶解的初步实验

近年来地质证据和少量的实验研究证实,相当量的铜可以在气相中迁移,人们认识到铜在气相中迁移是一种重要的地球化学过程,但目前关于铜在气相中溶解反应机理的研究还相当缺乏.本文通过溶解度法,在310～350℃,压力为4.2～10 MPa的条件范围内,实验研究了铜在不饱和水蒸气相中的溶解度.结果表明：水蒸气的存在大大增强了铜在气相中的溶解度;恒定温度下,铜在气相中的溶解度随着水蒸气压的增加而增大;气相中铜可能以水合物的形式存在,铜在气相中的溶解可由以下反应表述：CuClm^solid ＋nH2O^gas=CuClm·（H2O）n^gas（m=1,2）,其中水合数随着温度升高而下降,温度为310℃水合数n为～6,330℃为～5,350℃为～4.研究结果明确显示,气体溶剂H2O与铜之间的反应可大大增强铜在气相中的溶解和迁移能力。

地史早期岩石中的铅锌演化--狼山-渣尔泰山中元古代铅锌成矿的物质基础

以中国内蒙古狼山一渣尔泰山中元古代SEDEX型铅．锌成矿带为例，研究了该区从太古代到中元古代地壳岩石的铅锌含量和变化关系以及与成矿的关系。研究发现，从早到晚，岩石SiO2和K2O含量升高，铅含量也与二者同步增加；FeO、MgO、CaO及Na20含量呈下降趋势，锌含量也同步降低。在太古代时，岩石的Zn／Pb比值一般〉8，中元古代时这一比值降低为2～4。矿石的Zn／Pb比值与基底岩石Zn／Pb比值具有很好的一致性。铅锌这种随时间的变化与中元古代铅的暴发性成矿及大规模铅锌共生矿床的形成是同步的，说明基底岩石中的铅和锌是该成矿带SEDEX矿床成矿的物质基础.

湘南瑶岗仙钨矿床成矿流体地球化学

瑶岗仙钨矿床位于湘东南后加里东隆起和湘、桂、粤北海西—印支坳陷带的交接部位，是南岭地区最典型的石英脉型钨矿床之一。为了深入研究瑶岗仙钨矿的成矿机制，本文在野外地质工作基础上，选取有代表性的样品，进行了氦、氩同位素以及碳、氧、硫稳定同位素研究，探讨了矿床成矿流体的来源，成岩成矿的关系，并初步讨论了矿床的成因模式。论文主要获得以下认识： （1）对瑶岗仙矿区不同硫化物中流体包裹体的氦、氩同位素系统测定表明，该矿床毒砂流体包裹体中3He/4He比值为0.58~2.60 Ra；黄铁矿和黄铜矿流体包裹体中3He/4He比值分别为0.41~1.26 Ra 和0.37~0.43 Ra，黑钨矿流体包裹体中氦同位素组成相对变化较大，其3He/4He比值为0.05~0.49 Ra，这些He同位素组成均明显高于地壳相应值；毒砂流体包裹体中的40Ar/36Ar变化范围在309.94~454.39；黄铁矿流体包裹体中的40Ar/36Ar变化范围在409.12~1822.31；黄铜矿和黑钨矿流体包裹体中的40Ar/36Ar变化范围分别为673~886和325~903，明显高于饱和大气雨水的40Ar/36Ar值。上述氦、氩同位素组成揭示瑶岗仙钨矿床中的成矿流体具有壳、幔两端元混合的特点。结合区域地质构造演化和成矿年代学的研究成果，本文认为瑶岗仙钨矿床的成矿流体是瑶岗仙花岗岩浆分异出的含有地幔He的岩浆流体与大气成因地下水二端元混合的产物。 （2）层解石和方解石的C、O同位素显示，该矿方解石的13CPDB和18OSMOW的变化范围为-2.2‰~ -7.0‰（均值为-4.8‰）和5.6‰~14.4‰（均值为11.3‰）；层解石的13CPDB和18OSMOW的变化范围为-5.5‰~ -6.3‰（均值为-5.8‰）和12.7‰~14.3‰（均值为13.8‰）；该矿方解石、层解石的C、O同位素组成与赣南西华山钨矿床非常类似。这些C、O同位素指示，该矿的成矿流体主要来自岩浆水，后期有少量大气降水的参与。 （3）对瑶岗仙矿区不同硫化物的硫同位素研究表明，该矿硫化物δ34S值的变化范围很窄，为-2.0‰~1.5‰之间，且具有明显的塔式分布。这些特征暗示，该矿的硫来源单一，主要来自岩浆。 （4）瑶岗仙花岗岩过去被视为典型的S型花岗岩，但本文研究发现该花岗岩普遍含有地幔He。结合区域构造背景的最新研究成果，本文认为，原来被认为“由地壳物质重熔形成的”瑶岗仙S型花岗岩体，实际上也是一种岩石圈伸展背景条件下壳幔相互作用的产物，地幔物质和能量的参与在该花岗岩的形成过程中发挥了重要作用。 （5）瑶岗仙钨矿床与矿区复式花岗岩体具有密切时空关系，而且该矿的主要成矿流体和成矿物质均来自矿区花岗岩，故两者亦应具成因联系。

MAS NMR studies of modified HY zeolites

The variations in structure and acidity on the internal and external surfaces of HY zeolites modified by MgO and SiO2 have been studied by MAS NMR, together with the selective adsorption of perfluorotributyl-amine. Al-27 and Si-29 MAS NMR spectra revealed that the modifications led to significant changes of the framework owing to the migration of some non-framework Si and Al into the framework in the course of the modifications. H-1 MAS NMR spectra showed that the modifications decreased the acidity of the zeolite surfaces. With an increasing of the loading of the oxides, the acidity of the surface decreased further. Both of the two kinds of Bronsted acidity of the MgO-modified HY zeolites decreased, particularly those in the supercages, while those of the SiO2-modified HY zeolites decreased less, and this result is consistent with that of NH3-TPD, from the adsorption of perfluorotributyl-amine, it was found that the acidic sites on the external surface of the HY zeolite can be completely covered by SiO2 after being modified by the chemical liquid deposition (CLD) method.
