皱饰构造研究进展综述   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
在综述皱饰构造成因研究历程和国内外最新研究成果的基础上,总结评述了 4种有代表性的皱饰构造形成模式,其核心问题是在皱饰构造的形成过程中微生物席和物理作用的参与方式,以及受造席者、透光性、水动力条件、基底类型和生物扰动五大因素的影响程度.在对皱饰构造和现代微生物席对比研究的基础上,发现皱饰构造与微生物席的分布在很大程度上具有一致性,所以通过对现代微生物席的生长发育环境进行综合研究,推测了有利于皱饰构造发育的古环境.皱饰构造一般发育于潮间坪和滨外过渡带,并且在显生宙一般与生物扰动作用具有不相容性.皱饰构造是发育最普遍、受关注最广泛的保存在硅质碎屑岩中的微生物诱导形成的原生沉积构造,所以理清皱饰构造的成因模式及古地理分布,有利于碎屑岩微生物席学的发展,可以为理解硅质碎屑岩中的特殊沉积构造提供重要线索.  相似文献

微生物席成因构造(microbially induced sedimentary structures, MISS)是由微生物与沉积物相互作用形成的生物-沉积构造, 可作为早期微生物群活动的重要标识, 但对其指示古环境的研究尚显不足.华北地台南部中-新元古代汝阳群(Pt2)和洛峪群(Pt3)以近岸浅水陆源碎屑沉积为主, 其中发育大量MISS, 包括多向波痕、微生物席稳化波痕、微生物席碎片、微生物席平滑波痕、多种微生物席脱水形成的砂裂及不规则网状生长脊等.研究表明, 在潮坪环境中MISS最为发育.地势差异对水动力、基底暴露、水分补给和沉积条件等环境因素具有显著控制作用, 影响微生物席的发育与结构, 因此, MISS的形态组合特征能够反映沉积微相变化.研究发现, 在潮上带以微生物席脱水形成的砂裂构造为主, 潮间带上部以破坏-改造型构造为主, 潮间带下部-潮下带一般少见原位MISS, 但可见再沉积微生物席碎片.据潮间带下部至潮上带上部MISS产出类型及其形态组合分析, 识别了4个MISS形态组合带, MISS形态组合由潮间带下部至潮上带上部的变化反映了古地形由低到高的明显变化.   相似文献

当蓝绿藻被修正为蓝细菌的时候,多年使用的藻席的概念就被修正为微生物席。科学家们长期观察和研究的结果表明:微生物席实际上是一种多种生物共生的、而且是同营养生物的同生微生物群落,这个复杂的微生物群落几乎包含了曾经出现在地球上的所有的新陈代谢途径。尽管还存在一些争议,多年来认为碳酸盐叠层石是“藻席”(微生物席)的建造物的理念,促使沉积学家们在碎屑岩中寻找微生物席的生命活动留下的痕迹。随着对早年描述的一些可疑的遗迹化石的重新解释,产生了席底和席底构造的新概念;也随着现代和化石记录中更多的与微生物席相关的沉积构造在碎屑岩中的发现,从而出现了将碎屑岩中的微生物诱发的沉积构造(Microbial induced sedimentary structure;简称为MISS构造)归到第五类原生沉积构造的新认识;在强调了包含一个较宽泛的物理、化学和生物过程的基础上,微生物诱发的沉积构造还被进一步归为微生物席生长、新陈代谢、破坏、腐烂和成岩过程几个大类。成因类型的挖掘和分类体系的建立,促进了在地球生物学框架下的碎屑岩微生物席沉积学的发展。  相似文献

前寒武纪的生物界是以微生物为主导的,微生物所引起的生物沉积构造的研究一直受到地质学家重视。以往的研究多集中在碳酸盐岩地层,近年来以发育在碎屑岩地层为主的微生物成因沉积构造(MISS)也成为地学界的研究热点之一。豫西鲁山地区云梦山组隶属于中元古界汝阳群,在构造古地理上属于华北地台南缘,主要为一套陆源碎屑岩沉积,其层面发育了大量的MISS,且类型多样。MISS类型的分布特征对精细环境有良好的指示作用;MISS的大量发育表明了当时微生物群落的繁盛,揭示了当时的微生物群落对古环境具有的强大改造功能。  相似文献

微生物成因沉积构造(Microbially Induced Sedimentary Structures, MISS) 是底栖微生物群及其生命活动与沉积物相互 作用形成的沉积构造,是微生物群生命活动的重要产物,多出现在陆源碎屑岩中,也是微生物群落在碎屑沉积中最重要的 地质记录。该类构造在前寒武纪的广布性和显生宙的局限分布性,对于研究地球表层环境的演变具有重要意义。通过对鲁 山地区野外露头发育的MISS的详细观察和描述,依据其成因和形态观察,将其分为微生物席生长构造(Mat growth feature)、 微生物席破坏构造(Mat destruction feature) 和微生物席腐烂构造(Mat decay feature) 三种类型,包括瘤状突起、不规则侧 向生长脊、多边形网状生长脊、多边形脱水裂痕、纺锤状脱水裂痕、不规则网状脱水裂痕、次圆状网状脱水裂痕、砂火山 构造等8个主要形态构造。根据宏观形态、镜下特征等,分析讨论了MISS的形态构造、成分、成因、沉积环境等。对含有 MISS石英砂岩的镜下石英颗粒及其矿物组分特征的研究发现,宏观上形态各异的MISS的镜下特征差别不大,并且在MISS 形成过程中生物物理沉积和生物化学沉积共同起着作用,同时也发现微生物群落可能多生长在中等水动力、沉积物为细粒 的环境中。  相似文献

豫西地区中元古代汝阳群砂岩中普遍发育微生物形成的沉积构造(Microbial Induced Sedimentary Strutures),简称MISS构造,这些MISS构造在过去通常被误认为前寒武纪后生动物遗迹化石。本文对豫西地区中元古代汝阳群MISS构造的形态、结构及显微构造特征进行了详细地分析研究,结果表明该区发育的MISS构造有4种类型:多边形网状裂隙构造、纺锤形裂隙、鸟足形裂隙和典型的正弦曲线型Manchuriophycus构造。豫西地区中元古代汝阳群微生物形成的沉积构造的发现,不仅表明这些砂岩层面上曾经存在微生物席活动,对今后与一些微生物席活动有关的沉积构造的研究有着重要的借鉴意义,为过去被误认为各种遗迹化石的修定提供了证据,而且对恢复前寒武纪沉积古地理具有重要的意义。  相似文献

微生物形成的原生沉积构造研究进展综述   总被引:10,自引:8,他引:10  
早在上世纪60年代,沉积学家Pettijohn和Potter曾经将形成原生沉积构造的地质作用划分为剥蚀作用、搬运作用、沉积作用和变形作用。在沉积期间和沉积之后到沉积物还未固结之前由上述作用所产生的沉积构造被定义为“原生沉积构造”,包括各种类型的层理、层面上的各种作用痕迹以及各种变形现象。在该分类之中,叠层石被定义为突出沉积面的正生长构造,这种构造由微生物与同沉积胶结作用共同构建而成。上世纪90年代中期至今,随着研究程度的深入,沉积学家们越来越认识到除了叠层石以外,微生物还会形成一种并不突出于底层面的原生沉积构造,并被认为是微生物席或微生物膜与各种物理作用营力共同作用的产物。这些作用营力包括剥蚀作用、搬运作用、沉积作用和变形作用。该类沉积构造被定义为微生物形成的原生沉积构造并被归为第五类原生沉积构造。正如叠层石主要产在前寒武纪以及显生宙未受到后生动物强烈改造的浅水环境中一样,微生物形成的原生沉积构造也主要发育在前寒武纪,以及显生宙的一些未受到后生动物强烈改造的潮坪和潟湖等环境之中。因此,该类沉积构造(第五类原生沉积构造)的研究,对于前寒武纪沉积环境重塑具有重要意义。燕山地区元古界串岭沟组和大红峪组碎屑岩中的变余波痕、皱饰构造和纺锤状裂缝,是碎屑岩中微生物形成的原生沉积构造的代表; 高于庄组第三段非叠层石碳酸盐岩(以灰岩为主)层面上发育大型皱饰构造和变余波痕,是碳酸盐岩中微生物形成的原生沉积构造的代表。这些沉积构造的发现和初步研究,为今后进一步深入研究奠定了良好的基础。  相似文献

微生物成因沉积构造(MISS),是微生物与沉积物相互作用的结果,可作为地质时期微生物群活动的重要标识。至目前为止,MISS主要发育在前寒武纪浅海潮间带上部至潮上带下部及显生宙生物大灭绝后微生物繁盛时期的浅水环境。文中豫西宜阳刘家沟组发育了形态多样的MISS,主要为微生物席破坏相关构造,尤其以多边形网状和纺锤状脱水裂痕最多。该研究区发育的多种MISS类型,指示了该区域的一些古环境特征。  相似文献

有关微生物成因沉积构造及其生物地质过程的研究近年来发展迅速,成为深刻认识地球早期生命演化以及生物与环境相互作用过程的重要桥梁。目前报道的微生物成因沉积构造主要集中在海相沉积中,而陆相碎屑岩沉积中的微生物成因沉积构造研究较少。本文介绍了河南省宜阳地区二叠系—三叠系界线附近陆相碎屑岩中发育的以微生物席生长特征、微生物席破坏特征为主的微生物成因沉积构造,认为这些沉积构造的发育与二叠纪末地质灾变事件造成的特殊水体化学环境和严重退化的生态系统相关,属陆相环境中的"错时相"沉积。研究区微生物成因沉积构造的发现对于二叠纪末地质灾变期生物绝灭与复苏奥秘的探索、陆相地层的划分、海相—陆相地层的对比均具有重要意义。  相似文献

河北兴隆一带的中元古界长城系大红峪组(1 650~1 600 Ma)以潮下坪灰白色厚层块状细粒石英砂岩为主,在砂岩层面上产出丰富的微生物成因构造(MISS).详细描述了MISS的沉积特征,并对其成因进行了初步分析.这些微生物成因构造可能反映了华北中元古代浅海潮坪环境被大面积分布的微生物席所覆盖,微生物席对砂质沉积物表面起到有效的保护作用,在一定程度上降低了沉积物的侵蚀和改造作用,从而影响基本沉积作用过程.大红峪组砂岩层面上发育的MISS为探索元古宙浅海环境微生物-沉积作用关系提供了研究材料,对这些MISS的深入研究可以加深对元古宙碎屑沉积体系的理解,从而促进微生物席沉积学的发展.  相似文献

贺兰山地区中元古代微生物席成因构造   总被引:23,自引:2,他引:21  
贺兰山中段中元古界黄旗口组石英砂岩中发现丰富的微生物席成因构造(MISS),包括由微生物席生长、破坏和腐烂过程形成的3种类型、9种不同形态的构造;与华北大红峪组发现的同类构造在成因类型与多样性方面具有很强的可对比性.砂岩中发育双向交错层理、冲洗层理、高角度单斜层理系和波痕,泥质粉砂岩夹层中发育波痕与泥裂,表明微生物席主要发育于潮间带上部至潮上带下部环境.MISS构造在华北地台长城系下部砂岩中的广泛存在表明在1.6 Ga前以蓝细菌为主的微生物群在环潮坪碎屑环境也很活跃.可能代表了微生物由海洋向陆地环境发展的过渡阶段.具光合作用功能的制氧蓝细菌的蓬勃发展可能是引发中元古代海洋化学条件发生转变、含氧量增高的重要原因,并为真核生物及宏观藻类的兴起创造了条件.研究表明,黄旗口组与华北大红峪组大致同时,反映了Columbia超大陆裂解期华北地台开始拉伸-张裂、缓慢沉降的构造古地理背景.  相似文献

The identification of fossils or biogenic sedimentary structures in rocks of Archean age is difficult, because similar lithological features could rise from purely physical or chemical processes alone. Therefore it is important to define criteria that serve the secure definition of a fossil or structure in question as of biological origin. Such criteria have been established for stromatolites and microfossils.This contribution discusses the 6 criteria of biogeneicity of ‘microbially induced sedimentary structures’ (MISS). Those structures are found in sandy deposits of early Archean age to the present, and rise from the interaction of benthic microbiota with physical sediment dynamics. The six criteria for their biogeneicity are: (i) MISS occur in rocks of not more than lower greenschist facies; (ii) in stratigraphic sections, MISS correlate with turning points of regression–trangressions; (iii), MISS correlate with a characteristic depositional facies that enhances the development and the preservation of microbial mats; (iv), the distribution of MISS correlates with the ancient average hydraulic pattern; (v), the geometries and dimensions of fossil MISS correspond to that of the modern ones; (vi), the MISS include at least one of 9 specific microtextures.  相似文献

Microbially Induced Sedimentary Structures (MISS) are primary sedimentary structures that arise syndepositionally from microbial community activity. Especially valuable are MISS for the analysis of early Archean (and extraterrestrial) deposits. However, most reports of MISS have focused on the Precambrian and Phanerozoic mass extinction marine sediments, and only a few and terrestrial MISS have been studied. The MISS presented in this paper, which mainly consists of mat growth feature, mat destruction feature and mat decay feature, are well preserved in terrestrial clastic rocks around the P-T boundary in Xiyang area, western Henan. Large U ridges, oriented sand quartz, mica grains and thin clayey laminae arranged parallel to bedding plane are the main features visible under the microscope. Several lines of evidence indicate that the Xingyang MISS are of biogenic origin. Abundant MISS in Xingyang may indicate the degradation of terrestrial ecosystems and proliferation of microbial mats immediately after the severe Permian-Triassic mass extinction. Study aiming at MISS helps to analyze their space distribution in the globe and to probe into links between microbial proliferation and environmental stresses following the end-Permian mass extinction in terrestrial ecosystems.  相似文献

The Tandilia Belt in northeast Argentina includes a Neoproterozoic sequence of sediments (Sierras Bayas Group), in which the Cerro Largo Formation, ca. 750 Ma in age, forms a siliciclastic, shallowing upward succession of subtidal nearshore to tidal flat deposits. Trace fossils Palaeophycus isp. and Didymaulichnus isp. have been described from the upper part of this succession. Specific sedimentary structures consisting of round-crested bulges, arranged in a reticulate pattern, and networks of curved cracks are associated with the trace fossils. These structures are considered to be related to epibenthic microbial mats that once colonized the sediment surface. They reflect stages of mat growth and mat destruction, if compared to analogous structures in modern cyanobacterial mats of peritidal, siliciclastic depositional systems. Also the trace fossils are interpreted as mat-related structures, partly forming components of networks of shrinkage cracks, partly representing the upturned and involute margins of shrinkage cracks or circular openings in desiccating and shrinking, thin microbial mats.

The definition of Didymaulichnus miettensis Young as a Terminal Proterozoic trace fossil is questioned, and it may be considered to interpret the ‘bilobate’ structure as the upturned, opposite margins of microbial shrinkage cracks which have been brought back into contact by compaction after burial.  相似文献

Modern back-barrier tidal flats of Galveston Island, Follets Island, and Matagorda Peninsula of the Texas coast are dominated by mud- to fine sand-sized siliciclastic sediments and prolific microbial mats. These microbial mats modify sediment behavior and result in a variety of microbially induced sedimentary structures (MISS). Common structures include: knobby surfaces, reticulated surfaces, gas domes, mat-cracks, sieve-like surfaces, erosional pockets, wrinkles, and mat chips. In general, mat thicknesses increase from ~ 1 mm in the upper supratidal to ~ 3 cm (maximum) in the lower supratidal and then decrease to ~ 2 mm in the lower intertidal areas. This same wedge-shaped pattern is displayed by detailed measurements of mat thicknesses from the rims into the deeper centers of depressions (pools) on the supratidal flats. Measurements of 175 mat-cracks show that height of the curled edges of the mat-crack polygons increases with increase in mat thickness. Similarly, measurements of 150 gas domes reveal that the size of the gas domes also increases with increasing thickness of the associated mats. Because mat thickness varies with elevation on the tidal flat, curl height of the mat-cracks and size of the gas domes are also related to elevation.Six zones were identified based on the occurrence of MISS within the supratidal (zone-I) to upper subtidal (zone-VI) areas. At the highest elevation, knobby surfaces characterize zone-I whereas zone-II is defined by reticulated surfaces. Along with reticulated surfaces, gas domes and mat-cracks characterize zone-III and zone-IV, respectively. Association of sieve-like surfaces with mat-cracks typifies zone-V whereas mat deformation structures and sieve-like surfaces define zone-VI. Boundaries between the MISS-zones in general are parallel and related to tidal zones. The distribution patterns of the MISS-zones are strongly controlled by local topography of the sediment surface because the degree of inundation is the primary controlling factor for the mat growth and resultant MISS. Therefore, distribution of the microbially induced sedimentary structures in siliciclastics, along with the dimension of the mat-cracks and gas domes, can be potentially helpful in interpretation of topography of paleodepositional surfaces.  相似文献

第33届国际沉积学会议于2017年10月9日-12日在法国图卢兹召开,微生物碳酸盐岩专题受到持续关注。在总结会议成果基础上,结合近年来国内外微生物沉积学文献以及现代微生物碳酸盐岩沉积考察,分析了微生物碳酸盐岩沉积学研究前沿及进展,包括:1)微生物席矿化产物及序列,认为矿化产物包括方解石(低Mg、高Mg、超高Mg)、文石、含铁、锰和钙的碳酸盐岩,镁-硅和黄铁矿等产物,矿化序列多样。2)微生物碳酸盐岩的元素记录,其中碳、氧、氮、磷、硫、铁、硅、砷等元素及同位素特征可能保留了微生物碳酸盐岩沉积和早期成岩的信息。3)纹层、凝块等微生物碳酸盐岩沉积结构机理及指示意义。4)微生物碳酸盐岩沉积环境,认为潮坪环境,特别是平均低潮面附近及其以上叠层石灰岩、凝块岩等微生物碳酸盐岩最为发育。依据国际微生物碳酸盐岩沉积学发展特点,本文针对国内相关领域进一步探讨了研究趋向,提出分类认识微生物碳酸盐岩现代沉积机理、重建古老微生物碳酸盐岩早期成岩过程、分类认识古老微生物碳酸盐岩沉积标志,这在当今微生物碳酸盐岩沉积学研究中显得尤为必要。  相似文献

Ubiquitous microorganisms, especially cyanobacteria preferably grow on the sediment surface thereby producing microbial mats. In the absence of grazers and bioturbators, microbial mat is a unique feature of the Proterozoic. Most of the papers so far published described a wide variety of bed surface microbial mat structures with rare illustrations from sections perpendicular to bedding. Nonetheless, bed surface exposures are relatively rare in rock records. This limitation of bed surface exposures in rock records suggest that a study of microbial mats in bed-across sections is needed. The 60 m thick coastal marine interval of the Sonia Sandstone Formation is bounded between two terrestrial intervals, a transgressive lag at the base and an unconformity at the top, and has been chosen for exploration of microbial mat structures in bed-across sections. A wide variety of microbial mat-induced structures in bed-across sections are preserved within the coastal interval of the Sonia Sandstone. Though many of these structures are similar in some aspects with bed surface structures, some of those presented here are new. The palaeogeographic range of these microbial structures extends from supralittoral to neritic. Diagenetic alterations of microbial mats produce pyrite and those zones are suitable for the preservation of microbial remains. SEM and EDAX analyses show fossil preservation of filamentous microbial remains that confirm the presence of microbial mats within the coastal interval of the Sonia Sandstone. Effects of proliferation of microbial mats in the siliciclastic depositional setting are numerous. The mat-cover on sediment surfaces hinders reworking and/or erosion of the sediments thereby increases the net sedimentation rate. Successive deposition and preservation of thick microbial mat layer under reducing environments should have a great potential for hydrocarbon production and preservation and therefore these Proterozoic formations could be a target for exploration.  相似文献
