中中新世气候转型(14.2~13.9 Ma)是全球联动的一个快速气候变化事件,冰盖、洋流和碳循环均发生显著变化,厘清其驱动机制对理解新生代全球变冷有重要意义。对此已有研究提出2种假说:一种重视洋流重组,另一种则突出碳循环的重要性,但二者都无法完美解释中中新世气候转型的种种现象。实际上,冰盖—洋流—碳循环三者形成耦合的系统,共同造成地球气候变化。综合已有的地质记录,两类机制均导致深部大洋碳储库增大,大气p CO2降低,并进一步促进气候变冷和冰盖增长,表明不同子系统之间的耦合作用引起气候突变。相较于碳循环过程和冰盖变化,学术界对中中新世气候转型期间洋流变化的了解较少,特别是南大洋和太平洋深部水团。未来的研究应聚焦于深部太平洋的洋流变化,以便更全面地完善对中中新世气候转型的理解。  相似文献

新生代以来,全球气候在持续不断的变冷,从两极无冰的"温室地球"变为现今两极终年有冰的"冰室地球",经历了多次冰盖扩张的变冷事件。始新世-渐新世界线(E/O)附近,δ18O值大幅度正偏,在短期内由 1.2‰迅速增加到 3.0‰,底层海水温度从12 ℃降低为 4.5 ℃。保存在大洋和大陆中的记录表明:E/O界线附近,全球气温大幅降低,海陆生物均有不同程度的灭绝,指示了气候变冷、变干的趋势。始新世-渐新世转换期间,南极洲与澳大利亚之间的塔斯曼尼亚海道和南极洲与南美洲之间的德雷克海峡(DrakeStrait)相继打开,形成环南极洋流,从而阻止赤道地区的热量向南极传送,导致南极大陆"热隔绝",使南极大陆东部为冰川所覆盖。最近的研究显示,E/O事件是与大气CO2含量快速变化密切相关的瞬时气候变化,其变化速率类似于现今地球由于人类活动引起大气CO2的变化,表明大气CO2浓度的变化在这一事件中起了极为重要的作用。  相似文献

研究了菲律宾海盆东北部“大洋钻探工程”125航次782A孔晚始新世以来的放射虫化石。根据Sanfilippo等1985年的分带,将研究区自下而上划分为10个带。讨论了始新世与渐新世、渐新世与中新世、中中新世与晚中新世、中新世与上新世以及上新世与第四纪的界线。研究区存在两个沉积间断,分别位于晚渐新世与早中新世晚期之间和中中新世与晚中新世之间。研究区第四纪放射虫化石仍以暖水分子为主,冷水分子分布较浅。依据放射虫化石分异度曲线得出,晚第三纪以来本区存在5个相对暖水期和5个相对较凉期,渐新世时处于冷水期,这与钙质超微化石复合分异度和碳酸钙含量曲线的变化是一致的。晚渐新世与早中新世晚期之间的沉积间断是由于中新世南极冰盖扩展造成大洋底层洋流活动加剧而形成的。  相似文献

中国晚始新世—早渐新世地层孢粉组合及其古气候特征   总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2  
始新世—渐新世是从65Ma恐龙绝灭以来新生代地球历史上最重要的事件, 此时地球从“暖室”过渡到“冰室”, 全球气候突变, 南极冰首次出现, 气候突变引起生物的大绝灭, 而我国的孢粉组合也有明显的变化特征.根据我国各个区始新世晚期—渐新世早期地层中孢粉组合的演化规律来探讨当时我国的古气候变化规律, 研究认为中国从始新世晚期到渐新世早期总体上亚热带、热带植物成分丰度和分异度都降低, 温带植物如桦科和榆科花粉大增, 耐寒山地针叶植物大量发育, 干旱类型植物增加, 草本植物开始繁盛.这些反映了从始新世晚期到渐新世早期植被组成由热带亚热带常绿阔叶树为主的针阔叶林转变为落叶树为主的针阔混交林, 说明晚始新世气候温暖湿润过渡到早渐新世气候变干变冷.孢粉植物群所反映的我国气候变化趋势与全球气候变化趋势一致, 说明我国的陆地也受全球构造的演变和南极大陆冰盖的影响.   相似文献

西南极乔治王岛发育有一套高钾低铝的拉斑玄武岩,夹火山碎屑岩,属于岛弧火山岩系列。该岛还保存了南极最长的冰川沉积记录,是研究南极冰盖演化历史的重要证据。乔治王岛出露的新生代陆相地层中含有丰富的植物叶、孢粉、茎干、无脊椎动物化石及鸟类足印的痕迹化石等,从始新世到早中新世,化石逐渐减少,表明植物多样性呈明显下降趋势,幸存的稀疏植被被严格限制在冰川周缘的苔原物种上。冰海相地层与古生物研究表明,晚渐新世海相地层主要对应高能环境,早中新世海相地层对应低能环境。对乔治王岛新生代古生物特征及古环境的探讨,不仅理解了古生物及多样性的变化趋势,也为重建南极古环境提供证据。   相似文献

基于TM遥感图像解译和野外调研,分析了攀西地区大渡河、安宁河深切河谷地貌特征和断裂带构造变形特征,建立了安宁河断裂带晚新生代5阶段变形历史。研究表明,中新世晚期—上新世早期,安宁河断裂以挤压走滑活动为主;上新世晚期至早更新世时期,断裂以斜张走滑活动为主,活动强度较弱;早中更新世之间发生的元谋运动使昔格达组湖相地层褶皱变形;中晚更新世时期发生断陷作用,形成安宁河两堑夹—垒的构造格局;晚更新世—全新世时期又以左旋走滑活动为主。综合安宁河、大渡河河谷地貌和晚新生代地层记录和变形特征,提出了攀西高原晚新生代4阶段隆升模式:中新世早中期(12Ma之前)以缓慢隆升与区域夷平化作用为主,中新世晚期—上新世早期(12~3.4Ma)是高原快速隆升与河流强烈下切的时期,上新世晚期—早更新世(3.4~1.1Ma)为昔格达湖盆发育时期,中晚更新世—全新世(1.1Ma以来)是高原快速隆升与河谷阶地发育时期。最后指出,至上新世晚期(3.4Ma以前),攀西高原海拔高度可能超过了3000m。  相似文献

This paper presents an overview of the Cenozoic stratigraphic record in the Sahara, and shows that the strata display some remarkably similar characteristics across much of the region. In fact, some lithologies of certain ages are exceptionally widespread and persistent, and many of the changes from one lithology to another appear to have been relatively synchronous across the Sahara. The general stratigraphic succession is that of a transition from early Cenozoic carbonate strata to late Cenozoic siliciclastic strata. This transition in lithology coincides with a long-term eustatic fall in sea level since the middle Cretaceous and with a global climate transition from a Late Cretaceous–Early Eocene “warm mode” to a Late Eocene–Quaternary “cool mode”. Much of the shorter-term stratigraphic variability in the Sahara (and even the regional unconformities) also can be correlated with specific changes in sea level, climate, and tectonic activity during the Cenozoic. Specifically, Paleocene and Eocene carbonate strata and phosphate are suggestive of a warm and humid climate, whereas latest Eocene evaporitic strata (and an end-Eocene regional unconformity) are correlated with a eustatic fall in sea level, the build-up of ice in Antarctica, and the appearance of relatively arid climates in the Sahara. The absence of Oligocene strata throughout much of the Sahara is attributed to the effects of generally low eustatic sea level during the Oligocene and tectonic uplift in certain areas during the Late Eocene and Oligocene. Miocene sandstone and conglomerate are attributed to the effects of continued tectonic uplift around the Sahara, generally low eustatic sea level, and enough rainfall to support the development of extensive fluvial systems. Middle–Upper Miocene carbonate strata accumulated in northern Libya in response to a eustatic rise in sea level, whereas Upper Miocene mudstone accumulated along the south side of the Atlas Mountains because uplift of the mountains blocked fluvial access to the Mediterranean Sea. Uppermost Miocene evaporites (and an end-Miocene regional unconformity) in the northern Sahara are correlated with the Messinian desiccation of the Mediterranean Sea. Abundant and widespread Pliocene paleosols are attributed to the onset of relatively arid climate conditions and (or) greater variability of climate conditions, and the appearance of persistent and widespread eolian sediments in the Sahara is coincident with the major glaciation in the northern hemisphere during the Pliocene.  相似文献

Detailed investigations of high latitude sequences recently collected by the Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) indicate that periods of rapid climate change often culminated in brief transient climates, with more extreme conditions than subsequent long term climates. Two examples of such events have been identified in the Paleogene; the first in latest Paleocene time in the middle of a warming trend that began several million years earlier: the second in earliest Oligocene time near the end of a Middle Eocene to Late Oligocene global cooling trend. Superimposed on the earlier event was a sudden and extreme warming of both high latitude sea surface and deep ocean waters. Imbedded in the latter transition was an abrupt decline in high latitude temperatures and the brief appearance of a full size continental ice-sheet on Antarctica. In both cases the climate extremes were not stable, lasting for less than a few hundred thousand years, indicating a temporary or transient climate state. Geochemical and sedimentological evidence suggest that both Paleogene climate events were accompanied by reorganizations in ocean circulation, and major perturbations in marine productivity and the global carbon cycle. The Paleocene-Eocene thermal maximum was marked by reduced oceanic turnover and decreases in global delta 13C and in marine productivity, while the Early Oligocene glacial maximum was accompanied by intensification of deep ocean circulation and elevated delta 13C and productivity. It has been suggested that sudden changes in climate and/or ocean circulation might occur as a result of gradual forcing as certain physical thresholds are exceeded. We investigate the possibility that sudden reorganizations in ocean and/or atmosphere circulation during these abrupt transitions generated short-term positive feedbacks that briefly sustained these transient climatic states.  相似文献

中新生代辽河盆地区域应力场变化及其成因   总被引:12,自引:2,他引:12       下载免费PDF全文
中新生代辽河盆地的形成和发展受控于多期区域应力场变化。对构造现象、火山活动、层序充填型式等多种实际资料的分析表明:辽河盆地经历了侏罗纪末-白垩纪早期、古新世中后期、始新世中后期、中新世等右旋张扭应力场作用阶段,以及白垩纪晚期-古新世初期、始新世早中期、渐新世、上新世以来等左旋压扭应力场作用阶段。区域应力场变化可以用地球自转速度变化引起的岩石圈板块活动及触发的深部过程来解释,亦与先期构造形迹和盆地边界条件有关。不同区域应力场的转化不仅导致了盆地演化的旋回性,也为辽河盆地及其邻区中新生代多套含油气层系的形成奠定了物质基础。  相似文献

The Magura Basin domain developed in its initial stage as a Jurassic-Early Cretaceous rifted passive margin that faced the eastern parts of the oceanic Alpine Tethys. In the pre- and syn-orogenic evolution of the Magura Basin the following prominent periods can be distinguished: Middle Jurassic-Early Cretaceous syn-rift opening of basins (1) followed by Early Cretaceous post-rift thermal subsidence (2), latest Cretaceous–Paleocene syn-collisional inversion (3), Late Paleocene to Middle Eocene flexural subsidence (4) and Late Eocene - Early Miocene synorogenic closing of the basin (5). The driving forces of tectonic subsidence of the basin were syn-rift and thermal post-rift processes, as well as tectonic loads related to the emplacement of accretionary wedge. This process was initiated at the end of the Paleocene at the Pieniny Klippen Belt (PKB)/Magura Basin boundary and was completed during Late Oligocene in the northern part of the Magura Basin. During Early Miocene the Magura Basin was finally folded, thrusted and uplifted as the Magura Nappe.  相似文献

柴达木盆地中、新生代介形类爆发与绝灭事件   总被引:16,自引:4,他引:12       下载免费PDF全文
柴达木盆地中、新生界富含微体化石,节肢动物介形类分布尤其广泛,其中Cetacella、Cypridea、Austrocypris、Hemicyprinotus、Cyprideis 和Ilyocypris inermis是晚侏罗世以来各相关层位的标准化石。这些水生生物的绝灭或发生均很迅速,在区域或全球范围内均可对比,具有生物事件地层学意义:Cetacella属的绝灭可能是侏罗、白垩纪之交全球性的古气候降温和气候带变化在柴达木盆地的反映;早白垩世之后Cypridea的迅速衰退是地外因素灾变的结果;中始新世晚期的Austrocypris的绝灭、渐新世Hemicyprinotus的绝灭都与当时地质条件的改变存在着内在的联系;中中新世Cyprideis的爆发推断是青藏高原隆升,导致气候干燥、湖水咸化的结果;而晚更新世晚期I. inermis等介形类动物群的急剧衰减则与全球气候骤然变冷的末次冰期事件有关。  相似文献

Sea-level fluctuations in the terminal Eocene, Oligocene, and Neogene of the Eastern Paratethys are quantitatively assessed on the basis of facies and old coastlines traced on the northern platform shelf, levels of river valley incisions, and the study of seismic profiles. The first data massif allows the characterization and correlation of transgression stages in the history of the Eastern Paratethys. The greatest transgressions fall within the first half of the Late Eocene, mid-Early Oligocene, initial Late Oligocene, initial Early Miocene, the initial Tchokrakian, Karaganian and Sarmatian in the Middle Miocene, the middle and late Sarmatian and early Pontian in the Late Miocene, and the Akchagylian in the Caspian basin of the Pliocene. In contrast, the greatest incisions of northern rivers running from the platform allow us to establish the time and extent of the main declines in the base levels of the erosion. Maximal incisions date back to the terminal Eocene-initial Oligocene, terminal Solenovian time in the terminal Rupelian, the terminal Maikop in the Early Miocene, the terminal Sarmatian and middle Pontian in the Late Miocene, and the Early Pliocene in the Caspian basin. Large regressions also formed unconformity surfaces, traced on seismic profiles as erosion boundaries of several orders. The surfaces are confined to the Eocene/Oligocene boundary, middle and late Maikop, Sarmatian/Meotian boundary, middle Pontian, and terminal Miocene-initial Pliocene, as well as being traced even in the most deep-water basins. The synthesis of these data suggests a preliminary version for the curve of transgression-regression cyclicity. Its correlation with the eustatic curve shows their similarity only in the lower part-prior to the initial Middle Miocene, when Paratethys became a semi-closed basin.  相似文献
