Age and paleoclimatic significance of late Holocene lakes in the Carson Sink, NV, USA     

Kenneth D. Adams   《Quaternary Research》2003,60(3):294-306

New dating in the Carson Sink at the termini of the Humboldt and Carson rivers in the Great Basin of the western United States indicates that lakes reached elevations of 1204 and 1198 m between 915 and 652 and between 1519 and 1308 cal yr B.P., respectively. These dates confirm Morrison's original interpretation (Lake Lahontan: Geology of the Southern Carson Desert, Professional Paper 40, U.S. Geol. Survey, 1964) that these shorelines are late Holocene features, rather than late Pleistocene as interpreted by later researchers. Paleohydrologic modeling suggests that discharge into the Carson Sink must have been increased by a factor of about four, and maintained for decades, to account for the 1204-m lake stand. The hydrologic effects of diversions of the Walker River to the Carson Sink were probably not sufficient, by themselves, to account for the late Holocene lake-level rises. The decadal-long period of increased runoff represented by the 1204-m lake is also reflected in other lake records and in tree ring records from the western United States.  相似文献   

Sedimentary Facies Architectures of Third-Order Sequences from Early to Middle Triassic in Nanpanjiang Basin     

MeiMingxiang MaYongsheng DengJun GaoJinhan ChenHuijun MengQingfen LiDonghai 《中国地质大学学报(英文版)》2003,14(2):103-118

There are complex and regular changes on sedimentary facies from the Early to the Middle Triassic in the Nanpanjiang basin. After the obvious drowned event of carbonate platforms in the transitional period between Permian and Triassic, carbonate platforms have evolved into the ramp type from the rimmed-shelf type. The differentiation of sedimentary facies becomes dearer in space, which are marked by the changes from an attached platform to a turbidity basin and several isolated platforms in the basin. The striking characteristics are the development of oolitic banks on isolated platforms in Nanning and Jingxi and the reef- and bank-limestones in the margin of the attached platform in the Early Triassic. Despite the difference of the time-span and the architectnre of fades succession of third-order sedimentary sequences, the process of the third-order relative sea-level changes reflected by the sedimentary facies succession of the third-order sequences is generally synchronous. Therefore, six third-order sequences could be discerned in the strata from the Early to the Middle Triassic in the Nanpanjiang basin. Using two types of facies changing surfaces and two types of diachronisms in stratigraphic records as the key elements, the sedimentary facies architectures of the third-order sequences that represent sequence stratigraphic frameworks from the Early to the Middle Triassic in the Nanpanjiang basin could be constructed.  相似文献

朱大岗  赵希涛  孟宪刚  吴中海  邵兆刚  马志邦  杨朝斌  王建平 《地质通报》2003,(Z1)

根据西藏纳木错及邻区发现的多处湖岸阶地和高位湖相沉积,确定了藏北高原古大湖的存在。水准测量表明,在纳木错沿岸发育了6级湖岸阶地,以及拔湖48～139.2m的高位湖相沉积;在拔湖26m以下,发育有8～30条湖岸堤;一条明显的湖蚀凹槽则集中出现在拔湖17.5～19.8m的高度上,与纳木错和仁错的分水垭口的高度相当。纳木错沿岸和邻区湖相或湖滨相沉积物的铀系年龄测定表明,高位湖相沉积形成于115.9～71.8kaB.P.的晚更新世早期;第6至第2级阶地形成于53.7～28.2kaB.P.的晚更新世中晚期;与湖蚀凹槽相当的湖滨相沉积则稍早于29.3kaB.P.;第2至第1级阶地,14C测定结果为2350～10390aB.P.。  相似文献

楚雄盆地处于中国云南省中部，位于扬子板块西南缘，南西界以红河断裂为界与哀牢山造山带相连，北西界为程海断裂，东边为绿汁江断裂。盆地基底包括结晶基底和褶皱基底双重结构。盆地内发育了中三叠世以后的沉积盖层，西部中三叠世和晚三叠世早、中期为海相沉积，晚期为海陆交互相和陆相沉积；盆地东部为陆相沉积。侏罗—白垩纪整个盆地为巨厚的陆相沉积。楚雄盆地的构造格架分为４个带：（１）哀牢山造山带；（２）褶皱逆冲带；（３）中部沉降带；（４）东部隆起带。盆地形成与演化分为六个阶段：（１）被动大陆边缘沉降阶段；（２）拉张热隆起边缘——裂谷盆地阶段；（３）沟－弧－盆系阶段；（４）残洋－周缘前陆盆地阶段；（５）走滑－拉张盆地阶段；（６）走滑－挤压－改造阶段。楚雄盆地的形成与演化体现了盆地动力学性质转化和复合，在多种动力系统作用下或经过多旋回构造阶段产生了复式盆地  相似文献   

Palynological dating of infra- and intertrappean sediments in the Mesozoic succession of Borehole PGD-6, Domra Sub-basin, West Bengal, India     

Vijaya 《Cretaceous Research》1997,18(6):833-847

Palynofloras have been examined from infra- and intertrappean sediments of the Panchet and Rajmahal Formations in the Domra Sub-basin of the Damodar Basin, West Bengal, India. Three distinct palynological assemblages are identified and referred to the following palynozones: (i)Lundbladispora–Verrucosisporites(506.60–505.00 m, late Early Triassic, (ii)Murospora florida(501.65–422.20 m. Late Jurassic, Kimmeridgian–Tithonian), and (iii)Cicatricosisporites australiensis(342.00–229.6 m. Early Cretaceous, Tithonian–Berriasian). The first occurrences ofCallialasporites turbatusandC. dampieriare at 501.65 m.Callialasporitesis a dominant element of the succeeding assemblages from the Panchet Formation and indicates a Jurassic age. The FAD ofCicatricosisporites australiensisandC. augustusat 342.00 m, and inconsistent occurrences ofAequitriradites spinulosus,Crybelosporites stylosusin the overlying sediments indicate Jurassic–Cretaceous transition.  相似文献   

华北地台中寒武世米级旋四层序与复合海平面变化     

陈荣坤 《沉积与特提斯地质》1996,(4)

笔者在对华北地区中寒武统颐滩碳酸盐建造露头层序地层学研究工作中首次识别出层序中最基本的地层单元──米级旋回层序，它是露头层序分析最基本的工作单元。本文总结概括出不同体系域内米级旋回层序类型和特征。这些米级旋四层序在塞向上叠加构成高级（五级、四级、三级）旋回层序时表现出周期性和规律性。这种不同级次的旋回层序的形成受不同动力成因引起的具不同周期和频率复合海平面变化的控制。米级旋回层序的识别与复合海平面变化的研究得出中寒武世鲕滩层序的形成经历了若干次周期性的淹没－间断－均衡堆积－加积进积事件，这为盆地充填史的恢复提供了新途径。  相似文献   

华北中北部高级变质岩区的构造区划及其晚太古代构造演化   总被引：12，自引：4，他引：12  

李江海  翟明国 《岩石学报》1996,12(2):179-192

通过区域构造编图及重点地段的详细研究，在华北克拉通中北部识别出一条ＮＮＥ向的构造带——龙泉关－桑干带，它以大规模的韧性剪切带网络、重熔钾质花岗岩带、数量众多的高压麻粒岩构造透镜体或岩片为特征。剪切带以低角度逆冲为主，矿物拉伸线理指示运动方向为ＮＷ－ＳＥ向。这些剪切带造成东西两侧基底杂岩与表壳岩系包括孔兹岩系的广泛构造叠置，以及高压麻粒岩的近等温减压上隆。从更大的范围看，龙泉关－桑干带处于鄂尔多斯克拉通和阜平－赞皇克拉通之间，并且被五台－吕梁裂谷型绿岩带截切或不整合覆盖。该带应形成于晚太古代，记录了上述两个克拉通斜向拼合的构造过程  相似文献   

辽北清原地区太古宙地质演化及其对成矿的控制作用     

毛德宝  沈保丰  李俊建  李双保 《华北地质》1997,(3)

辽北清原地区在时空上有系统地发育了三个太古亩地体：浑河以南的小莱河花岗岩-绿岩带（ＸＧＧＢ）、浑河以北的清原花岗岩-绿岩带（ＱＧＧＢ）和在ＱＧＧＢ东北部出露的景家沟麻粒岩-片麻岩区（ＪＧＧＲ）。绿岩带中火山岩组合在ＸＧＧＢ中以双峰式岩套为特征，而在（ＱＧＧＢ中以连续的钙碱性系列为特征。ＸＧＧＢ中斜长角门岩全岩Ｓｍ－Ｎｄ等时线年龄为３０１８±２０Ｍａ，Ｎｄ（ｔ）＝＋０．１９±０．１７，ＴＤＭ＝３３４７～３７３５Ｍａ，而ＱＧＧＢ中的斜长角闪岩全岩Ｓｍ～Ｎｄ等时线年龄为２８８４±４８Ｍａ，∈Ｎｄ（ｔ）＝＋２．６１±０．４１，ＴＤＭ＝２９３８～２９９２Ｍａ。ＪＧＧＲ中黑云麻粒岩的Ｒｂ－Ｓｒ等时线年龄为２９９４±３２５Ｍａ，可能代表变质年龄，表明其形成在ＸＧＧＢ之前。综合研究表明辽北地区太古亩地质演化模式很可能为：ＪＧＧＢ代表了古中太古代古陆的残骸，ＸＧＧＢ于中太古代形成在这个古陆边缘的裂谷盆地内，ＱＧＧＢ则形成在新太古代的大陆边缘岛弧环境，并于新太古代晚期与ＸＧＧＢ拼贴。在此陆一弧碰撞过程中，ＱＧＧＢ逆冲推覆于ＪＧＧＲ之上，后者由于后期的伸展作用而出露于地表。成矿作用是地质演化的组成部分，并受制于各个演化阶段的构造环境  相似文献
