Understanding how temperature increase with mountain terrains is an important component in accurately modeling the spatial distribution of temperature. The study, after minimizing the effect of elevation and latitude, quantitatively simulated the temperature increase in the uplifted mountain terrains, described the characteristics in the spatial distribution of warming areas with different magnitudes, and identified the correlated indices of mountain bodies for warming. Selecting Yunnan Province in southwest China as the study area, we simulated the warming field on a baseline surface at the average elevation of 2000 m and average latitude of 24.96°. The results indicated that the warming magnitudes in different local areas varied with the change in the spatial locations, and the warming process concentrated in the mountainous regions. Throughout the entire study area, the warming field presented a general pattern of three terraces from the regions of high mountains to middle mountains and then low mountains. The areasof high warming magnitude mainly surrounded large mountain bodies and were distributed on the upper part. The areas of low warming magnitude clustered in the valleys and basins of the middle mountain region, mostly on the lower part of the large mountain bodies and its branches. The areas with zero warming magnitude occurred in the low mountains and broad valleys, which were distributed largely on the lower parts of the middle mountains and in most of the valleys. Quantified sampling analysis demonstrated good positive correlation between the warming magnitudes in uplifted mountain terrains and the volume index of the mountain body, as well as elevation difference, with the coefficients corresponding to 0.82 and 0.91, respectively.展开更多

Some scientists believe the plateau uplifted to its highest elevation by 14Ma BP,and it decreased in elevation afterward. The second idea about the uplift of the plateau was similar to the first one in tectonic theory, but they consider the time of C3 plant change to C4 in the South Asia, as the time when the plateau reached its highest elevation. This time is 8Ma BP. The third idea, the most Chinese scientists believed, the nearest uplift of the plateau took place since 3 4Ma BP. The occurrence of fault depression and gravel deposit with large thickness in the inner and the marge of the plateau represented the speed uplift. After the collision of the India plate and the Eurasia plateau by the 36Ma, the Tibetean area uplifted several times, but it had been planed to lower area. The plateau with 4500m elevation formed in the Quaternary. While our recent research in the Kunlun Pass area suggest , the nearest uplift occurred at the border of the Early and Middle Pleistocene, and before that time, the elevation of this area was no more than 1500 m.展开更多

文摘By investigating the evolution of shale gas generation,storage,adjustment and accumulation under different structural settings in superimposed basins,this study elucidates the differential accumulation mechanisms of shale gas.An improved evaluation method of shale gas content evolution in superimposed basins is proposed.This method incorporates the coupling effect of key geological factors such as temperature,pressure,organic matter abundance,maturity,and pore characteristics on the content and occurrence state of shale gas,as well as the configuration relationship between shale gas generation and storage throughout geological history.Using this approach,the gas evolution histories of the Longmaxi Formation shales in wells N201 and PY1 are reconstructed under varying geological conditions.The Longmaxi Formation shales in these wells are dominated by typeⅠkerogen,with original total organic carbon(TOC_(o))contents of 6.20 wt% and 4.92 wt%,respectively,indicating differences in the initial material basis for gas generation.At the maximum burial depth of approximately 5000 m,the Longmaxi Formation shale in well N201 exhibits a formation pressure coefficient of 2.05,an organic matter maturity of 2.2%,and organic pores accounting for 68%of the total porosity.The gas generation quantity(Q_(g))reaches 19.24 m^(3)/t,while the gas storage capacity(Q_(s))is 4.30 m^(3)/t.The actual total gas content(Q_(a)),constrained by Q_(s),is 4.30 m^(3)/t,with free gas comprising 94%.Following relatively moderate tectonic uplift,the Q_(a) in well N201 decreases to 4.03 m^(3)/t,with free gas accounting for 63%.In contrast,the Longmaxi Formation shale in well PY1 reached a maximum burial depth of 6300 m,associated with a formation pressure coefficient of 1.62,organic matter maturity of 2.5%,and organic pore proportion of 67%.Here,Q_(g) is 16.87 m^(3)/t,and both Q_(s) and Q_(a) are 3.65 m^(3)/t,with free gas accounting for 98%.After intense tectonic uplift,Q_(a) declines to 2.72 m^(3)/t,and the proportion of free gas drops to51%.Finally,a four-stage differential accumulation model of shale gas is established:Slow gas generation and only adsorbed gas occur in stageⅠ,which is primarily controlled by TOC content;both adsorbed gas and free gas present in stageⅡ,with free gas becoming dominant;rapid gas generation and free gas predominance are controlled by temperature and porosity in stageⅢ;and gas adjustment and accumulation are primarily controlled by temperature and pressure in stageⅣ.

文摘The seismic data of the Laoshan Uplift in the South Yellow Sea Basin reveal a low signal-tonoise ratio and low refl ection signal energy in the deep Mesozoic–Paleozoic strata.The main reason is that the Mesozoic-Paleozoic marine carbonate rock strata are directly covered by the Cenozoic terrestrial clastic rock strata,which form a strong shielding layer.To obtain the reflection signals of the strata below the strong shielding layer,a one-way wave equation bidirectional illumination analysis of the main observation system parameters was conducted by analyzing the mechanism of the strong shielding layer.Low-frequency seismic sources are assumed to have a high illumination intensity on the reflection layer below the strong shielding layer.Accordingly,optimized acquisition parameter suggestions were proposed,and reacquisition was performed at the existing survey line locations in the Laoshan Uplift area.The imaging of the newly acquired data in the middle and deep layers was drastically improved.It revealed the unconformity between the Sinian and Cambrian under the strong shielding layer.The study yielded new insights into the tectonic and sedimentary evolution of the Lower Paleozoic in the South Yellow Sea.

文摘Tectonic activities significantly impact deep reservoir properties via sedimentary and diagenetic processes,and this is particularly true for lacustrine rift basins.The tectonic-sedimentary-diageneticreservoir system is crucial in deep reservoir exploration.This study examined the first member and upper submember of the second member of the Dongying Formation in the Bodong Low Uplift in the Bohai Bay Basin(East China),documenting the petrologic features and physical properties of reservoirs in different tectonic sub-units through integrated analysis of log and rock data,along with core observation.A mechanism for deep reservoir formation in lacustrine rift basins was developed to elucidate the sedimentary and diagenetic processes in complex tectonic settings.The results show that tectonic activities result in the occurrence of provenances in multiple directions and the existence of reservoirs at varying burial depths,as well as the significant diversity in sedimentary and diagenetic processes.The grain sizes of the sandstones,influenced by transport pathways rather than the topography of the sedimentary area,exhibit spatial complexity due to tectonic frameworks,which determine the initial pore content of reservoirs.However,the burial depth,influenced by subsequent tectonic subsidence,significantly impacts pore evolution during diagenesis.Based on the significant differences of reservoirs in slope zone,low uplift and depression zone,we establish different tectonic-diagenetic models in deep complex tectonic units of lacustrine rift basins.

文摘This study addresses the significant disparity in aerodynamic uplift forces experienced by single-strip high-speed pantographs under different operating directions.A systematic numerical investigation was conducted to evaluate the influence of key geometric parameters on aerodynamic characteristics,culminating in two targeted adjustment strategies.The reliability of the computational methodology was validated through comparative analysis,which revealed less than a 6%deviation in aerodynamic drag between the numerical simulations and wind tunnel tests.Aerodynamic decomposition revealed that the operating direction critically impacts the uplift force,which is governed by two factors:streamwise cross-strip positioning and the angular orientation of the arm hinge.These factors collectively determine the divergent aerodynamic responses of the panhead and frame during directional changes.By establishing a parametric database encompassing four strip-to-crossbar spacing configurations and six arm diameter variations,nonlinear response patterns of the uplift forces under different operating directions to geometric modifications were quantified.Both adjustment approaches,simultaneously reducing both streamwise and vertical strip-to-crossbar spacings to half of the original dimensions or increasing the upper arm spanwise diameter to 1.45 times and decreasing the lower arm spanwise diameter to 0.55 times the baseline values,successfully constrained aerodynamic uplift force deviations between operating directions within 3%.

文摘Tai'an city,located in Shandong Province,China,is rich in geothermal resources,characterized by shallow burial,high water temperature,and abundant water supply,making them high value for exploitation.However,corrosion and scaling are main challenges that hinder the widespread application and effective utilization of geothermal energy.This study focuses on the typical geothermal fields in Tai'an,employing qualitative evaluations of the geochemical saturation index with temperature,combined with the corrosion coefficient,Ryznar index,boiler scale,and hard scale assessment,to predict corrosion and scaling trends in the geothermal water of the study area.The results show that the hydrochemical types of geothermal water in the study area are predominantly Na-Ca-SO^(4)and Ca-Na-SO_(4)-HCO_(3),with the water being weakly alkaline.Simulations of saturation index changes with temperature reveal that calcium carbonate scaling is dominant scaling type in the area,with no evidence of calcium sulfate scaling.In the Daiyue Qiaogou geothermal field,the water exhibited corrosive bubble water properties,moderate calcium carbonate scaling,and abundant boiler scaling.Feicheng Anjiazhuang geothermal field showed non-corrosive bubble water,moderate calcium carbonate scaling,and significant boiler scaling.The Daidao'an geothermal field presented corrosive semi-bubble water,moderate calcium carbonate scaling,and abundant boiler scaling.The findings provide a foundation for the efficient exploitation of geothermal resources in the region.Implementing anti-corrosion and scale prevention measures can significantly enhance the utilization of geothermal energy.

文摘The Altyn Tagh fault zone(ATFZ),which defines the northern boundary of the Tibetan Plateau,is one of the most striking features related to the India/Eurasia collision.Concurrent with the strike-slip movement,vertical uplift,and topographic building have formed a~3000-4000 m height difference between the Tarim Basin(TB)in the north and the Tibetan Plateau in the south.However,the spatial uplift characteristics and mechanism have not been well understood,particularly in the Late Quaternary.This research presents a comprehensive geomorphic analysis to establish the Late Quaternary tectonic uplift pattern for the entire ATFZ.We statistically excluded climatic and lithological factors that provided prominence for tectonism;combined with leveling data,river incision rate,and seismicity data,we reveal the along-strike and across-fault vertical deformation variations.The spatial distribution of the integrated geomorphic index(IGI)suggests significant differences between the two sides of the ATFZ.The IGI values decrease with slip rates in the northwestern side of the ATF,whereas wave-like in the southeastern side.The significant along-strike deformation difference between the two sides of the ATFZ may cause by differential rheology.These findings are crucial for assessing regional seismic hazards and providing new independent data to understand the Late Quaternary deformation style of the northern boundary of the Tibetan Plateau.

文摘The present-day pressure pattern is the ultimate result of the evolution of paleo-pressure,so understanding the variation of stress throughout geological history is of great significance for oil and gas accumulation.In this study,the fission track method was used to reconstruct the cooling history of sandstone samples from the Yanchang Fm.in the central-eastern Ordos Basin and the cause of the low-pressure anomaly in the Yanchang Fm.was analyzed.The max.burial depth pressure was reconstructed and the pressure evolution of the formation in the Futan 1 well was simulated,using Petromod 1D.The fission track data and Petromod 1D simulation results indicate that the Yanchang Fm.reached its max.burial depth and experienced a high paleo-pressure of 30.92 MPa at around 100 Ma.Since the Late Cretaceous,the formation pressure evolution in the study area can be divided into two stages.From 100 to 20 Ma,the formation slowly uplifted,with the pressure gradually decreasing.Since the Miocene(about 20 Ma),the pressure rapidly decreased to the current pressure of approximately 6.92 MPa.Based on the above research results,the influence of pore rebound and temperature decrease on formation pressure was quantitatively calculated.The results show that during the first stage,the pressure reduction caused by pore rebound and cooling was 3.86 MPa and 3.49 MPa,respectively,with a decrease of about 12.48%and 11.28%.During the second stage,the pressure reduction caused by pore rebound and cooling was 6.32 MPa and 9.60 MPa,respectively,with a decrease of about 20.43%and 31.04%.The formation of low pressure in the Yanchang Fm.in the central and eastern basin is mainly controlled by pore rebound and temperature reduction,caused by erosion after stratigraphic uplift.The decrease in temperature plays a decisive role in determining the formation process of the low-pressure oil reservoir.

文摘Restoration of denudation thickness is of great significance to understanding tectonic evolution,hydrocarbon migration and accumulation history in petroliferous basins.How to accurately restore and distinguish denudation thicknesses in different periods,however,is difficult.With measurements of vitrinite reflectance(Ro)and interval transit time,along with stratigraphic profile comparison,we restored the total denudation thickness of the Cretaceous in the central Sichuan Basin at a depth range of1100-3300 m.The apatite fission track analysis(AFTA)was employed to identify the denudation periods,namely,the Late Yanshanian,Early Himalayan and the Late Himalayan orogenic epochs,and the ratio of their denudation intensity is about 3.8:1:3.9.The denudation thicknesses at different periods provide an important basis for tectonic evolution and hydrocarbon migration and accumulation.Affected by the diverse denudation intensities,the paleo-structures in the study area feature high in the south and low in the north at the Late Jurassic,high in the north and low in the south at the late Early Cretaceous,high in the southeast and low in the northwest at present in succession.EW-and NE-trending folds and faults are the products of inherited development,which have a controlling effect on hydrocarbon migration and accumulation.

文摘An enhanced understanding of the history of the western Qinling-Dabie orogen is pivotal in reconstructing geological processes of the east Asian mainland.However,less attention has been paid to its early-stage uplift-erosion history after closure of surrounding oceanic basins at the mid-Paleozoic.In this study,we undertook a comprehensive study including paleocurrent reconstruction,sandstone petrology,and detrital zircon U-Pb dating on Late Carboniferous to Early Permian successions in the southern Ordos neighboring the northern Qinling-Dabie.New provenance data reveal a significant provenance shift at the Carboniferous-Permian transition.The older Benxi Formation was sourced southerly from the North Qinling Terrane that provided detritus mostly of Neoproterozoic and Early Paleozoic ages.In contrast,Early Permian samples yield age relation dominated by Neoarchean,Paleoproterozoic,Early Paleozoic,and Late Paleozoic age populations,with a significant gap of ca.1600-550 Ma,implying a sediment derivation from the Inner Mongolia Continental Arc.This shift is further verified by paleocurrent transition from south to north then.We suggest that the North Qinling Terrane experienced a significant uplift history from ca.500 Ma and remained as a highland until end-Carboniferous.From Early Permian,the North Qinling Terrane was submerged,covered by widespread deltaic sedimentation there.Northerly source from the Inner Mongolia Continental Arc began to be accumulated in the northern flank of the North Qinling Terrane,before termination approximately along the southern North Qinling Terrane,where shallow-water carbonate shelf sedimentation sustained from Devonian to Triassic.This new finding indicates that uplift of the North Qinling Terrane lasted about 150 Ma after the Proto-Tethys Ocean closure.

文摘A numerical simulation approach was adopted to investigate the uplift bearing characteristics of helical an-chors in Nantong silty sand and to predict their uplift bear-ing capacity.Finite element model validation was per-formed,and the uplift bearing mechanism of helical anchors was analyzed.The current code’s uplift bearing capacity calculation formula was optimized,and the accuracy and re-liability of the modified formula were evaluated.The results indicate that the critical embedment depth ratio of the anchor plate in Nantong silty sand is 5,and the critical spacing ra-tio ranges from 3 to 4.The current code’s formula underes-timates the uplift bearing capacity of helical anchors under these conditions.To improve the prediction accuracy,the optimization coefficients M and L,which account for the embedment depth ratio of the anchor plate,are introduced,and fitting formulas for these coefficients are provided to im-prove the prediction of uplift bearing capacity in Nantong silty sand and to serve as a reference for similar engineering applications.

文摘In September 2020,a pioneering observational network of three X-band phased-array radars(XPARs)was established in Xiamen,a subtropical coastal and densely populated city in southeastern China.Statistically,this study demonstrated that the XPAR network outperforms single S-band radar in revealing the warm-season convective storms in Xiamen in a fine-scale manner.The findings revealed that convective activity in Xiamen is most frequent in the central and northern mountainous regions,with lower frequency observed in the southern coastal areas.The diurnal pattern of convection occurrence exhibited a unimodal distribution,with a peak in the afternoon.The frequent occurrence of convective storms correlates well in both time and space with the active terrain uplift that occurs when the prevailing winds encounter mountainous areas.Notably,September stands apart with a bimodal diurnal pattern,featuring a prominent afternoon peak and a significant secondary peak before midnight.Further examination of dense rain gauge data in Xiamen indicates that high-frequency areas of short-duration heavy rainfall largely coincide with regions of active convective storms,except for a unique rainfall hotspot in southern Xiamen,where moderate convection frequency is accompanied by substantial rainfall.This anomalous rainfall,predominantly nocturnal,appears less influenced by terrain uplift and exhibits higher precipitation efficiency than daytime rainfall.These preliminary findings offer insights into the characteristics of convection occurrence in Xiamen's subtropical coastal environment and hold promise for enhancing the accuracy of convection and precipitation forecasts in similar environments.

文摘With the increasing construction of port facilities,cross-sea bridges,and offshore engineering projects,uplift piles embedded in marine sedimentary soft soil are becoming increasingly necessary.The load-displacement curve of uplift piles is crucial for evaluating their uplift bearing characteristics,which facilitates the risk evaluation,design,and construction of large infrastructural supports.In this study,a load-displacement curve model based on piezocone penetration test(CPTU)data is proposed via the load transfer method.Experimental tests are conducted to analyze the uplift bearing characteristics and establish a correlation between the proposed model and CPTU data.The results of the proposed load-displacement curve are compared with the results from numerical simulations and those calculated by previous methods.The results show that the proposed curves appropriately evaluated the uplift bearing characteristics and improved the accuracy in comparison with previous methods.
