Magnetic stratigraphy observed in ferromanganese crust   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Lung S. Chan  Chau L. Chu  Teh L. Ku 《Geophysical Journal International》1985,80(3):715-723

Summary. A sample of ferromanganese crust deposit (SCHW-1D) was cut into two sets of 1 mm slices for palaeomagnetic study. Alternating field and thermal demagnetization, and isothermal remanent magnetization analyses were performed on each thin slice. The results reveal the presence of a stable magnetism and both normal and reversed polarity intervals in the specimens. The observed polarity intervals cannot be confidently correlated with the geomagnetic polarity time-scale of the last 10 Myr due to the polarity overlap inherent in the sampling technique. But the results confirm the slow accretion rate of ferromanganese deposit determined by ¹⁰Be method and suggest potential use of ferromanganese deposits in palaeomagnetic and tectonic studies.  相似文献   

Tensile stresses around boreholes due to transient fluid flow     

Derek Y. C. Chan  Barry D. Hughes  Lincoln Paterson 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》1993,17(9):659-667

We present solutions for the effective stress induced by gas flow through a porous solid into a borehole resulting from sudden pressure reduction. Tensile effective stress that exceeds the strength of the solid will lead to borehole failure. This has applications to the intentional creation of cavities, relevant to the efficient recovery of coalbed methane, and the avoidance of borehole stability problems in conventional gas production.  相似文献   

Fast iterative solution of large undrained soil‐structure interaction problems

In view of rapid developments in iterative solvers, it is timely to re‐examine the merits of using mixed formulation for incompressible problems. This paper presents extensive numerical studies to compare the accuracy of undrained solutions resulting from the standard displacement formulation with a penalty term and the two‐field mixed formulation. The standard displacement and two‐field mixed formulations are solved using both direct and iterative approaches to assess if it is cost‐effective to achieve more accurate solutions. Numerical studies of a simple footing problem show that the mixed formulation is able to solve the incompressible problem ‘exactly’, does not create pressure and stress instabilities, and obviate the need for an ad hoc penalty number. In addition, for large‐scale problems where it is not possible to perform direct solutions entirely within available random access memory, it turns out that the larger system of equations from mixed formulation also can be solved much more efficiently than the smaller system of equations arising from standard formulation by using the symmetric quasi‐minimal residual (SQMR) method with the generalized Jacobi (GJ) preconditioner. Iterative solution by SQMR with GJ preconditioning also is more elegant, faster, and more accurate than the popular Uzawa method. Copyright © 2003 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献

High‐pressure metamorphism in Taiwan: from oceanic subduction to arc‐continent collision?     

O. Beyssac  F. Negro  M. Simoes  Y. C. Chan  Y. G. Chen 《地学学报》2008,20(2):118-125

Abstract The Taiwan orogen has been the focus of a number of models of mountain building processes, but little attention has been paid to high‐pressure (HP) metamorphic rocks that are found as exotic blocks intermingled within the deepest units of the mountain belt. In this study, we re‐appraise from updated petrological and thermodynamic databases the physical conditions of HP metamorphism in Taiwan, and we combine our findings with available geochronological data to estimate the thermal history of these rocks. Our results indicate that peak metamorphic conditions of ～550 °C and 10–12 kbar have been followed by a rapid isothermal decompression, with exhumation possibly as rapid as burial. These units have subsequently been stored at a pressure of ～3 kbar for ～4–5 Myr, before their final exhumation, probably facilitated by the accretion of passive margin sequences during the Late Cenozoic collision. Therefore, HP units in Taiwan maintain a record of processes at depth from the early stages of oceanic subduction to the present arc‐continent collision.  相似文献   

Regulation of Tilapia metallothionein gene expression by heavy metal ions   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4  

Cheung AP  Lam TH  Chan KM 《Marine environmental research》2004,58(2-5):389-394

Tilapia is a common fish species inhabiting inland waters and estuarine regions in Hong Kong and Southeast Asia, and useful for bio-monitoring of metal pollution. Metallothionein (MT) gene expression in fish tissues has been useful to sub-lethal risk assessment as biomarker of exposure to metal ions in fishes inhabiting metal contaminated area. To investigate metal inductions of Tilapia MT gene expression in vivo, Tilapias were injected with different concentrations of heavy metals and tissues were then removed for quantitative PCR assay using mimic PCR methods. All of the metal ions tested (Cu(2+), Cd(2+), Hg(2+), Ni(2+), Pb(2+) and Zn(2+)) were able to induce hepatic MT mRNA levels. Renal MT mRNA levels of Cd(2+) and Zn(2+) treated fish was not induced with significant fold induction, however MT mRNA levels in gills were sensitive to the administrations of these metal ions. These data indicated that Tilapia MT mRNA levels in gills and liver are sensitive biomarker of exposure to various metal ions.  相似文献

台湾海峡西部上升流的生成和长消原因分析     

吴永成  翁学传  杨玉玲 《海洋科学集刊》1997,(38):53-59

台湾海峡西部海域是上升流多发区,近年来已引起众多海洋学家的重视。我国海洋学家通过对台湾海峡区水团、海流和营养盐等的分析研究,不仅得出了台湾海峡西部海域上升流的分布范围和特征,并对其成因也作了探讨,取得了一些有价值的研究结果。由于这些研究都是采用间接方法,因此对上升流的主要成因尚存在不同的看法。本文通过对引起台湾海峡西部海域上升流的各驱动力因子量级的分析,进而判断出上升流的主要成因。  相似文献   

北方劳德藻配子和复大孢子的产生   总被引：8，自引：0，他引：8  

林均民  翁师德 《海洋与湖沼》1994,25(6):601-605

于１９８６年１０月在厦门近岸采集北方劳德藻，从培养中观察其有性生殖和光对生殖的影响。结果表明，该藻只有宽度为２６－４０μｍ的细胞能形成配子和复大孢子；在光照条件下每昼夜只发生１次性化；雌雄配子以不同发育方式形成，配子发生呈现一定的时间程序；强光照和１６ｈ光周期最适于性化。由此得知，引起性化既依赖适当的细胞大小，又依赖光诱导的外部因素；产生两种精子数目是与精原孢囊的体积大小紧密相关；性化与光强度之间  相似文献
