²¹⁰Pb具有百年时间尺度沉积计年的重要价值。²¹⁰Pb_ex计年假设：沉积物是封闭系统；进入水体的²¹⁰Pb能有效地转移到沉积物中并不发生沉积后迁移；非过剩²¹⁰Pb与其母体²²⁶Ra保持平衡。²¹⁰Pb_ex计年可用稳定输入通量-稳定沉积物堆积速率模式、常量初始浓度模式或恒定补给速率模式。沉积物柱芯必须保持原态并以0．5～1cm间隔分截；用相应层节²²⁶Ra校正。沉积物表层混合作用及²²²Rn的丢失可能导致顶部²¹⁰Pb_ex异常。季节性缺氧湖泊沉积物顶部可能存在²¹⁰Pb及²¹⁰Po的再迁移。²¹⁰Pb与¹³⁷Cs两种计年方法原理上具有根本差别。²¹⁰Pb，¹³⁷Cs与沉积纹理方法对比是准确计年的重要保证。  相似文献

对东平湖沉积物柱状岩芯放射性年代学研究表明： 12cm处的 ¹³⁷Cs比活度峰值对应于1963年人工核试验高峰,9cm和6cm处的 ¹³⁷Cs比活度蓄积峰可能分别与1974年的全球核素散落和1986年前苏联切尔诺贝利核电站核泄漏有关; ²¹⁰Pb比活度随深度呈指数衰减,利用 ¹³⁷Cs核素1963年对应的蓄积峰进行校正,采用 ²¹⁰Pb计年的CRS模式建立了1889年以来东平湖现代沉积年代序列。根据 ²¹⁰Pb年代序列,计算了东平湖现代沉积速率,发现近百年来东平湖地区沉积速率有明显变化： 1889～1945年,沉积速率较高,平均达0.297g/cm2•a; 1945～1963年,沉积速率整体处于下降趋势; 1963～2000年,沉积速率比较稳定,平均约0.141g/cm2•a; 约2000年以来,沉积速率有增高趋势。通过分析认为,1945年以前东平湖较高的沉积速率可能与东平湖作为黄河水的自然滞洪区有关; 1950年代国家对东平湖的治理改造,控制了黄河水的自然倒灌,导致了东平湖沉积速率的迅速下降; 1963年以后,由于黄河上中游大型水利工程设施的修建,抑制了东平湖调洪功能的发挥,导致东平湖沉积速率低而稳定; 近年来,东平湖沉积速率有增大趋势,这可能与湖区人民发展围网养殖带入较多的沉积物有关。  相似文献

文章通过对长江口水下三角洲采集的10个柱状样放射性核素¹³⁷Cs的分析可以得知,长江口水下三角洲¹³⁷Cs剖面中均存在清晰的最大蓄积峰,其峰值比活度介于5.68±1.03～21.74±1.39Bq/kg之间,平均值为14.11±1.10Bq/kg,最大蓄积峰所处的深度为55～117cm。剖面中¹³⁷Cs最大蓄积峰应该与1963年的¹³⁷Cs散落沉降相对应。长江口水下三角洲的表层沉积物中的¹³⁷Cs比活度范围介于0～9.19±1.12Bq/kg之间,并且与长江流域其他地区的表层¹³⁷Cs比活度相一致。长江口水下三角洲可探测到的¹³⁷Cs比活度的最大深度范围在88～160cm的范围内变化,¹³⁷Cs蓄积总量为2361.30±174.38～17714.94±262.14Bq/m²,平均值为9664.97±100.05Bq/m²,¹³⁷Cs比活度的最大深度及¹³⁷Cs蓄积总量均表现出从岸向海逐渐增加的趋势。实测的¹³⁷Cs总量均大于长江流域的¹³⁷Cs背景值,说明了长江口水下三角洲的¹³⁷Cs蓄积既有大气散落直接沉降的来源,又有流域侵蚀带来的¹³⁷Cs输入,并且主要以后者为主。通过放射性核素示踪模型分析长江口水下三角洲¹³⁷Cs散落蓄积特征可以得知,长江口水下三角洲¹³⁷Cs的蓄积以长江流域来源为主,说明了放射性核素¹³⁷Cs在长江口水下三角洲沉积物中的蓄积主要受流域侵蚀因素的影响。  相似文献

通过对东北二龙湾玛珥湖顶部无扰动岩心显微研究,证明此岩心发育有良好的年纹层。据精确统计,0~5.5 cm间为36个年纹层,纹层计年的误差为4％~7％,年纹层厚度为1.1~2 mm不等,平均沉积速率为1.53 mm/a,5.5 cm处对应于1965年。而二龙湾沉积物（从6.5 cm到5.5 cm)岩心的¹³⁷Cs比活度值急剧增加,从（4.67±0.29） dpm/g增加到（12.06±0.47） dpm/g,在5.5 cm处有一个较为明显的蓄积峰值,这一峰值被确认对应为1963年全球¹³⁷Cs散落的高峰期。另外据²¹⁰Pb_ex比活度CIC模式,5.5 cm处约为1962年,这和¹³⁷Cs比活度曲线的1963年时标相一致。印证了纹层计年的精确性,完全可以建立高分辨率时间序列。  相似文献

1964,1975及1986年三个¹³⁷CS时标计算出红枫湖和洱海沉积物平均堆积速率完全一致,说明1975年和1986年次级蓄积峰作为计年时标的可靠性。洱海沉积物平均堆积速率为0．047±0．002g／(cm²·a),与²¹⁰Pb方法所获得的结果一致;红枫湖为0．17±0．01g／(cm²·a),与其建湖以来沉积物实际堆积的观察结果吻合。洱海1964年沉积物中¹³⁷CS的比活度(校正到沉积年代)仅46．4Bq／kg,而红枫湖达145Bq／kg。由于红枫湖沉积物堆积速率约为洱海的3．7倍,所以其1964年层节沉积物中¹³⁷CS蓄积量比洱海大11.5倍。红枫湖沉积物中¹³⁷CS累计值的99．4％分配于1985年以前,而洱海的19．4％分配于1986年以后,显示出¹³⁷CS在洱海沉积物中的较大扩散能力。  相似文献

在吉林省西部月亮湖沉积柱中137 Cs和210Pb比活度测定的基础上,进行了沉积柱137 Cs和210Pb测年和现代沉积速率研究。月亮湖沉积柱在18cm和32cm处存在2个明显的137 Cs峰值,所对应的时标分别为1986年和1963年,据此时标计算的1963 2006年月亮湖的平均沉积速率为0.74cm/a,19862006年平均沉积速率为0.90cm/a。对比了CIC、CRS和CFCS模式的210Pb计年结果,其中:CIC模式的计年结果明显偏离137 Cs时标;64cm以浅沉积物的CRS、CFCS模式计年结果接近,并与137 Cs时标基本一致;但当沉积物的深度大于64cm时,CRS、CFCS模式计年结果具一定差别,鉴于此深度以下CFCS模式计年的指数方程的相关系数较低,其计年结果的代表性较差,因此,此深度以下采用CRS模式计年。根据CRS模式计年结果计算的月亮湖沉积速率为:1835 1898年平均为0.33cm/a,1898 1920年平均为1.09cm/a,1920 1961年平均为2.21cm/a,1961 2006年平均为0.94cm/a。沉积速率的年际变化反映了月亮湖及其流域内自然环境变化和人类活动的影响程度。  相似文献

基于大样本¹⁴ C测年资料的 华北平原沉积速率研究^*   总被引：2，自引：1，他引：2  

许炯心 《第四纪研究》2007,27(3):437-443

华北平原是我国研究程度较高的地区,历年来积累了大量的¹⁴ C测年资料。从这些资料中尽可能地提取沉积速率的信息,并进而研究华北平原沉积速率的变化及其与流域自然和人文环境变化之间的关系,是一个有重要意义的问题。利用华北平原456个地点的¹⁴ C年龄与样品埋深资料,计算出了各个样品所在层位沉积以来的平均沉积速率(R_T),以此来近似反映各地点的平原沉积速率,并据此建立了R_T随时间的变化关系。从古至今, R_T有明显的增大趋势。以点群的上包线反映各时代的平原最大沉积速率,该指标可以反映华北平原的主体即黄河下游冲积平原的沉积速率。发现了最大平均沉积速率随时间变化过程中的4个突变点,分别为10000aB.P. , 5000aB.P. , 3000aB.P. 和1400aB.P. 。4个突变点将上包线分成5条折线,由此可以将近4万年以来的变化分成5个阶段。从古至今,5条折线的斜率增大,反映了平原沉积的加速过程; 并对4个突变点的成因进行了解释。阶段1,阶段2和阶段3沉积速率的加速是由自然原因造成的; 阶段4和阶段5沉积速率的加速则是由自然和人为原因共同造成的。从456个地点的¹⁴ C年龄与样品埋深资料中提取了距今4万年以来华北平原的平均沉积速率的信息,计算出平均沉积速率为0.9mm/a。按此求出,近4万年以来华北平原的沉积总厚度为36m。  相似文献

选取崇明岛北侧由东至西4个潮滩沉积柱,分析137Cs、226Ra和210Pb放射性比活度,应用210Pb和137Cs放射性同位素定年方法计算崇明岛潮滩沉积物沉积速率。对于东西两端,210Pb方法测得速率分别为3.08cm/a和2.34 cm/a,而137Cs测得速率分别为6.19 cm/a和2.06 cm/a。结果表明,137Cs定年方法计算出的潮滩沉积速率普遍大于210Pb方法结果;但两者反映了相同的速率规律。崇明岛主力生长方向为东和东北,西侧沉积作用相对较弱,表现出"东快西慢"的特点。沉积纵向上,1954年以来,自下而上沉积速率逐渐减缓。  相似文献

The pore water chemistry of ^239,240Pu and ¹³⁷Cs in sediments of Buzzards Bay,Massachusetts     

E.R. Sholkovitz  D.R. Mann 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1984,48(5):1107-1114

The collection of large volumes of pore water (1–2 liters per 2 cm horizon of sediment) and low level radiochemical measurements of ^239,240Pu and ¹³⁷Cs have been combined to produce the first study of these fallout artificial radionuclides in marine pore waters. Profiles from box cores taken in June and September 1982 from Buzzards Bay, Mass., are reported along with profiles of many diagenetic constituents (i.e. SO₄^2?, alkalinity, Fe, Mn, DOC, and nutrients).The ^239,240Pu pore water profile is characterized by a subsurface maximum of about 0.28 dpm/100 kg lying between 3–11 cm. Overlying seawater, in contrast, has an activity of $\text{0.01 ± 0.02}$ dpm/100 kg. Below about 11 cm, the pore water ^239,240Pu distribution follows that of the solid phase which decreases rapidly with depth. The pore water profiles of ¹³⁷Cs are characterized by a broad and deeply penetrating maximum where activities of about 35–40 dpm/100 kg extend from 3 to 20 cm. Overlying seawater, in contrast, has an activity of 17–24 dpm/100 kg. The ¹³⁷Cs and ^239,240Pu pore water data show that there is preferential downward transport of ¹³⁷Cs and that ^239,240Pu does not have an active diagenetic chemistry and is not significantly mobile in these coastal sediments.  相似文献   

Ice accumulation rate in Changme-Khangpu glacier,Sikkim     

P. N. Shukla  N. Bhandari  V. N. Nijampurkar  D. Kameswara Rao  V. M. K. Puri  Sanjiv Sharma 《Journal of Earth System Science》1983,92(3):255-260

Vertical profiles of¹³⁷Cs and²¹⁰Pb have been determined in a 9 m column of ice from accumulation zone of Changme-Khangpu glacier in north Sikkim valley.¹³⁷Cs activity varies from 4 to 22 dpm/ L. In many samples²¹⁰Pb occurs at a level of 20 to 65 dpm/ L which is much higher than the expected fallout value.¹³⁷Cs and²¹⁰Pb activities correlate well with each other but not with the dust content. Possibility of²¹⁰Pb production in the nuclear explosions is discussed. Several peaks appear in the depth profile of¹³⁷Cs and²¹⁰Pb which can be matched with Chinese atmospheric nuclear explosions with some phase difference if a uniform ice accumulation rate of 0.7 m per year is assumed since 1969.  相似文献

对乌梁素海沉积物柱心样品进行210Pb、137Cs测年分析表明,柱心剖面上有明显的1963年蓄积峰,这个蓄积峰对乌梁素海的现代沉积有明显的时标意义。根据210Pb的CRS模式,可以计算出每个样品深度所对应的年代,在该沉积柱心中与137Cs时标吻合较好。乌梁素海的沉积速率并不稳定,变化比较大,表明乌梁素海近113 a来沉积环境不稳定。210Pb、137Cs两种计年方法的结合有助于认识沉积速率变化较大的沼泽的沉积状况,也有助于对核素计年方法的理解。  相似文献   

Comparative ²¹⁰Pb, ¹³⁷Cs,and pollen geochronologies of sediments from Lakes Ontario and Erie     

J.A. Robbins  D.N. Edgington  A.L.W. Kemp 《Quaternary Research》1978,10(2):256-278

The distribution of ²¹⁰Pb, ¹³⁷Cs, and Ambrosia (ragweed) pollen in two sediment cores from Lake Ontario and in three cores from Lake Erie provides independent estimates of sediment accumulation rates. Geochronology with ²¹⁰Pb is based on radioactive decay of the isotope following burial in sediments. The method can reveal with precision changes in sedimentation occurring over the past 100 yr or so. Geochronologies with ¹³⁷Cs and Ambrosia are based on the occurrence of a horizon corresponding, respectively, to the onset of nuclear testing 25 yr ago and to regional forest clearance in the middle 1800s. These methods provide estimates of long-term average sediment accumulation rates. In all but one core, the distributions of ¹³⁷Cs and ²¹⁰Pb indicate no physical mixing of near-surface sediments. In two cores, including one from central Lake Erie collected by diver, all three estimates of sedimentation rates are in excellent agreement. In two other cores, rates based on ²¹⁰Pb are significantly higher than those inferred from Ambrosia pollen profiles. Lower average rates appear to result from occasional massive losses of sediments. Such events, apparent in the distribution of ²¹⁰Pb but not in pollen records, correlate with the occurrence of major storm surges on the lakes during this century. In one core from western Lake Erie, exponential distributions of both ²¹⁰Pb and Ambrosia appear to be artifacts which may result from extensive biological or physical reworking of sediments in shallow water (11 m). Previous indications of increased sedimentation in Lake Erie since about 1935 based on Castanea (chestnut) pollen data are not substantiated.  相似文献   

Laboratory studies of the diagenesis and mobility of ^239,240pu and ¹³⁷Cs in nearshore sediments     

Edward R. Sholkovitz  J.Kirk Cochran  Anne E. Carey 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1983,47(8):1369-1379

Controlled laboratory experiments have been used to study the diagenetic chemistry of ^239,240Pu ¹³⁷Cs, and ⁵⁵Fe. Experiments using Buzzards Bay sediments in small tanks show that sulfate reduction is accompanied by the production of large pore water concentration gradients of alkalinity, phosphate, ammonia and dissolved organic carbon and the formation of subsurface maxima in Fe and Mn. These pore water profiles demonstrate that bacterially-mediated processes of organic matter degradation and redox reactions can be simulated in the laboratory.A vertical profile of ⁵⁵Fe in pore waters is reported for the first time: it follows the profile of stable Fe and as such has a large (200 dpm/100 kg) subsurface maximum between 2–4 cm depth. Comparison of ⁵⁵Fe/Fe ratios in sediments and pore waters shows that there is preferential solubilization of ⁵⁵Fe over stable Fe.The pore water activities of ^239,240Pu show no gradients within the large uncertainties of the counting statistics, but are two to four times higher than Buzzards Bay seawater (0.05 dpm/100 kg).The activity of ¹³⁷Cs in the pore water profile is constant (40 dpm/100 kg) within the large counting uncertainties and is twice that of Buzzards Bay seawater. Cs-137 does not appear to be involved in diagenetic chemistry but may increase in pore waters as a result of ion exchange reactions.Flux estimates based on the pore water data show that remobilization and transport of ^239,240 Pu in coastal sediments are not significant processes while the transport of ^l37Cs may be.  相似文献   

²¹⁰Pb activities in and fluxes to sediments of the Washington continental slope and shelf     

R. Carpenter  J.T. Bennett  M.L. Peterson 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1981,45(7):1155-1172

Surface sediments of the Washington coast have ²¹⁰Pb activites which average 104 ± 48dpm/g for submarine canyon and slope regimes and 18 ± 12dpm/g for the continental shelf regime. ²¹⁰Pb sedimentary fluxes are also higher in canyons, averaging 18 ± 13dpm/cm² per yr, compared to 5.2 ± 3.1 dpm/cm² per yr for slope and 4.8 ± 1.8dpm/cm² per year for shelf regions. These ²¹⁰Pb activities and fluxes are 2–7 times greater than those reported for other coastal regions. Inputs from the atmosphere and the Columbia River are not sufficient to supply the ²¹⁰Pb, but advection of seawater containing dissolved ²¹⁰Pb produced in situ from ²²⁶Ra provides an input several times larger than the sedimentary fluxes. The sedimentary ²¹⁰Pb flux is limited by scavenging reactions rather than by supply of dissolved ²¹⁰Pb.Calculations of maximum biological uptake and fluxes of ²¹⁰Pb and ‘selective’ chemical leaching experiments all show that the primary scavenging processes are due to hydrous Mn and Fe oxides rather than biological phases. The pattern of higher ²¹⁰Pb depositional fluxes in canyons than in nearby open slope areas of comparable water depth is most reasonably explained by enhanced scavenging of dissolved ²¹⁰Pb near the sea floor, rather than by processes operating throughout the water column. Relatively rapid removal of dissolved ²¹⁰Pb from the near bottom nepheloid layer to slope and canyon sediments is shown by its mean residence time of less than two years in this layer.  相似文献   

Particle mixing rates in sediments of the eastern equatorial Pacific: Evidence from ²¹⁰Pb, ^239,240Pu and ¹³⁷Cs distributions at MANOP sites     

J.Kirk Cochran 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1985,49(5):1195-1210

Particle mixing rates (D_B) calculated from excess ²¹⁰Pb gradients in sediments of the east equatorial Pacific range from 0.04 to 0.5 cm²/y, with variation of a factor of 3–4 at a single site. Diffusion of the ²³⁶Ra daughter ²²²Rn may affect ²¹⁰Pb distributions under conditions of slow mixing and low ²¹⁰Pb flux to the seafloor, as shown by a siliceous ooze-clay core which contained the fallout radionuclides ^239,240Pu and ¹³⁷Cs but no excess ²¹⁰Pb (relative to ²²⁶Ra). There is no clear relationship between ²¹⁰Pbderived mixing rates and sediment type, accumulation rate or organic carbon flux to the sediments. Comparison of ²¹⁰Pb mixing rates with those calculated from ^239,240Pu and ¹³⁷Cs distributions reveals better agreement for a pulse input of the fallout radionuclides (D_B = 0.03?0.4 cm²/y) than for continuous input at a constant rate (D_B = 0.1?1.6 cm²/y), although the Pu and ¹³⁷Cs data are better fit by the latter model. The agreement may be fortuitous because ^239,240Pu and ¹³⁷Cs appear significantly deeper than ²¹⁰Pb in at least one core. Tracer separation could be caused by particle size-selective mixing by the benthic fauna or by chemical mobilization. If the fallout radionuclides are scavenged from surface waters by large, organic-rich particles such as fecal pellets, their release and migration may result from decomposition of the carrier in surface sediments. Either a relatively unreactive form of Pu (e.g. oxidized Pu) has been released by this process or a one-dimensional model is inadequate to explain its observed penetration into the sediments. Activity ratios of ${}^{\mathrm{239,240}}\text{Pu}{}^{137}\text{Cs}$ in the sediments decrease with increasing north latitude, and the trend reflects higher fluxes of ^239,240Pu near the weapons test site at Christmas Island (2°N). The ${}^{\mathrm{239,240}}\text{Pu}{}^{137}\text{Cs}$ ratios and fluxes to the sediment (assuming constant input) at the siliceous ooze-red clay site are consistent with published sediment trap data from a nearby site. Thus if fallout radionuclide fluxes to the sea floor were higher in the past, both ^239,240Pu and ¹³⁷Cs have been released from sinking particles.  相似文献
