To obtain the best possible combination of the impact factors （magnetic intensity, FAMC dosage, flocculant dosage, and feed speed） for minimum overflow turbidity, a response surface methodology test coupled with a four-factor five-level central composite design was conducted. The synergy mechanism of FAMC and flocculant was analyzed based on the potential measurement and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the flocculant dosage, overflow turbidity, and solid content can be reduced by 50%, 90%, and 80%, while the handling capacity per unit and efficiency of backfill and dry stacking can be promoted by 20%, 17%, and 13%, respectively, with a magnetic intensity of 0.3 T, FAMC dosage of 200 mL/t, flocculant dosage of 30 g/t, and feed speed of 0.6 t/（m^2·h）. Therefore, synergy of FAMC and flocculant has obvious efficiency in saving energy and protecting the environment by allowing 70×10^6 t/a of argillized ultrafine tailings slurry to be disposed safely and efficiently with a cost saving of more than 53×106 Yuan/a, which gives it great promise for use in domestic and foreign mines.展开更多

The results showed that the planting method for fresh edible ＂faba bean/spring maize＋soybean-autumn maize/autumn soybean＂ was much easier to operate with the input-output ratio of about185.6%, and its yield and economic benefits were 2.09 and 1.83 times of that of the planting mode for three crops a year, significantly improving the agricultural yield and income of farmers. In addition, the cropping index of the planting mode for fresh edible fresh edible ＂faba bean/spring maize ＋soybean-autumn maize/autumn soybean＂ reached up to 350%, and planting faba bean once a year and soybean twice a year could make the biological fixation amount of nitrogen increase 350-450kg/m^2, which equaled to up to 700 kg/m^2 of urea, showing significant ecological and social benefits. Based on the comparison results, the high-yield culture techniques of the planting mode of fresh edible ＂faba bean/spring maize＋soybean-autumn maize/autumn soybean＂ were summarized.展开更多

Their migration is a result of overbank flow downslope through the submarine channel at the west. The slope faces are dominated by mass wasting deposition, and a few turbidite current sediments. As wasting is an important process. Some debris flow eomplexes on the west are buried by well-stratified confomable sediments, whereas others on the east appear on the present seafloor and therefore are relatively recent.展开更多

Triassic sedimentation in the Helanshan tectonic belt records important information about tectono-sedimentary process between the Alxa Massif and the Ordos block. Detailed geological mapping and investigation on the lithological package, sedimentary facies and paleocurrent orientation have been conducted on the Middle to Upper Triassic clastic rocks in the Helanshan tectonic belt. The succession is characterized by upward-fining sequence and comprises coarse grained alluvial-fluvial facies in the lower part as well as deltaic-lacustrine facies in the upper part. Based on detailed study and comparisons on the sedimentary sequence along various sections, the Middle to Upper Triassic strata have been revealed that show clear southeastward-deepening sedimentary differentiation and transgression from southwest to northeast, which are consistent with the southeastward flowing paleocurrent. These features indicate a southeastward-dipping paleogeography in the Helanshan tectonic belt, which was original western part of southeastward orientated fluviallacustrine system in the northwestern proto-Ordos Basin. Further to the east, the Triassic succession in the Ordos Basin displays gradually thickening and alluvial-fluvial system flowed from southeast to northwest, showing a huge thick sedimentary wedge in the western basin margin. Together with the Late Permiane Early Triassic closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean to the north, the Late Triassic extensional structures and diabase dykes in the Helanshan tectonic belt, all the above sedimentary features could be mostly interpreted as records of an extensional basin correlated to post-collisional collapse of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt.展开更多

The results indicate that in the sandy area of the intertidal zone (from Daogouzi to the Duliujian River), the sedimentation rate from 1955 to 1963 is 3.43-4.06 cm/a, and is within the range of 0.65￣1.59 cm/a since 1963. The average sedimentation rate in the muddy area (around Qikou) is approximately 1.81 cm/a. The results above suggest that the sandy area of the intertidal zone has experienced rapid sedimentation from the 1950s to the 1960s, and the sedimentation slows down after the 1960s, and the sedimentation rates increase from north to south spatially. The rapid sedi- mentation from the 1950s to the 1960s in the sandy area is due to the fact that North China has plentiful precipitation during this period and the intertidal zone is supplied with abundant matter sources for sedimentation. After the 1960s, the weakened sedimentation may be a result of the reduction of sand transported to the intertidal zone, which is a consequence of diminished rainfall in North China and intensive human activities in the Haihe basin.展开更多

Experimentally it was found for the first time that when the intensive sediment motion occurs downstream over a gentle slope, the siltation of the riverbed is induced and the sediment particles can move upstream rapidly in the form of a retrograde sand wave, resulting in a higher water level along the river. To further study the complex mechanisms of this problem, a sediment mass model in the framework of the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics(SPH) method was presented to simulate the riverbed evolution, sediment particle motion, and the generation and development of dynamic hydraulic jump under the condition of sufficient sediment supply over a steep slope with varying angles. Because the sediment is not a continuous medium, the marker particle tracking approach was proposed to represent a piece of sediment with a marked sediment particle. The twophase SPH model realizes the interaction between the sediment and fluid by moving the bed boundary particles up and down, so it can reasonably treat the fluid-sediment interfaces with high CPU efficiency. The critical triggering condition of sediment motion, the propagation of the hydraulic jump and the initial siltation position were all systematically studied. The experimental and numerical results revealed the extra disastrous sediment effect in a mountainous flood. The findings will be useful references to the disaster prevention and mitigation in mountainous rivers.展开更多

文摘High-efficiency disposal of dredged sediment(DS)has become an imperative geo-environmental engineering issue due to the limited landfilling space and severe environmental burdens.This study firstly developed a novel high-efficiency nano-modified and chemical-activated binary cement(NBC),which was composed of binary cement(BC)consisting ordinary Portland cement(OPC)and ground granulated blast-furnace slag(GGBS),chemical-activator and nano-modifier.The effects of chemical-activation and nano-modification on the strength development of BC-stabilized DS(BCDS),and the optimum mix of NBC were respectively achieved via a series of unconfined compressive strength and orthogonal tests.Then,the high-efficiency and economic applicability of NBC in DS stabilization were evaluated by comparing with OPC.Furthermore,the microstructure and mineral composition evolutions inside NBCstabilized DS(NDS)were explored by conducting X-ray diffraction(XRD)and scanning electron microscopy(SEM)tests.The results show that both chemical-activation and nano-modification could effectively improve the strength gain of BCDS,and compared with single chemical-activator and nanomodifier,the composite chemical-activators and nano-modifiers exhibited better performances.Based on BC with OPC/GGBS mass ratio of 1:1,both anhydrous sodium metasilicate/anhydrous sodium sulfate(SM/SS)and nano-SiO_(2)/nano-MgO(NS/NM)with mass ratio of 1:9 were respectively determined to be optimum chemical-activator and nano-modifier.The optimum mass ratio of BC,SM/SS and NS/NM was 20:2:1,i.e.the optimum mix of NBC.Compared with OPC,NBC exhibited higher stabilization efficiency and better economic applicability.The generation of calcium silicate hydrate(CSH),calcium aluminate hydrate(CAH)and ettringite contributed to the formation of dense cemented soil matrix inside NDS,and a conceptual micro-mechanism model characterizing the strength development under the coupling action of chemical-activation and nano-modification was proposed.

文摘Based on recent advancements in shale oil exploration within the Ordos Basin,this study presents a comprehensive investigation of the paleoenvironment,lithofacies assemblages and distribution,depositional mechanisms,and reservoir characteristics of shale oil of fine-grained sediment deposition in continental freshwater lacustrine basins,with a focus on the Chang 7_(3) sub-member of Triassic Yanchang Formation.The research integrates a variety of exploration data,including field outcrops,drilling,logging,core samples,geochemical analyses,and flume simulation.The study indicates that:(1)The paleoenvironment of the Chang 7_(3) deposition is characterized by a warm and humid climate,frequent monsoon events,and a large water depth of freshwater lacustrine basin.The paleogeomorphology exhibits an asymmetrical pattern,with steep slopes in the southwest and gentle slopes in the northeast,which can be subdivided into microgeomorphological units,including depressions and ridges in lakebed,as well as ancient channels.(2)The Chang 7_(3) sub-member is characterized by a diverse array of fine-grained sediments,including very fine sandstone,siltstone,mudstone and tuff.These sediments are primarily distributed in thin interbedded and laminated arrangements vertically.The overall grain size of the sandstone predominantly falls below 62.5μm,with individual layer thicknesses of 0.05–0.64 m.The deposits contain intact plant fragments and display various sedimentary structure,such as wavy bedding,inverse-to-normal grading sequence,and climbing ripple bedding,which indicating a depositional origin associated with density flows.(3)Flume simulation experiments have successfully replicated the transport processes and sedimentary characteristics associated with density flows.The initial phase is characterized by a density-velocity differential,resulting in a thicker,coarser sediment layer at the flow front,while the upper layers are thinner and finer in grain size.During the mid-phase,sliding water effects cause the fluid front to rise and facilitate rapid forward transport.This process generates multiple“new fronts”,enabling the long-distance transport of fine-grained sandstones,such as siltstone and argillaceous siltstone,into the center of the lake basin.(4)A sedimentary model primarily controlled by hyperpynal flows was established for the southwestern part of the basin,highlighting that the frequent occurrence of flood events and the steep slope topography in this area are primary controlling factors for the development of hyperpynal flows.(5)Sandstone and mudstone in the Chang 7_(3) sub-member exhibit micro-and nano-scale pore-throat systems,shale oil is present in various lithologies,while the content of movable oil varies considerably,with sandstone exhibiting the highest content of movable oil.(6)The fine-grained sediment complexes formed by multiple episodes of sandstones and mudstones associated with density flow in the Chang 7_(3) formation exhibit characteristics of“overall oil-bearing with differential storage capacity”.The combination of mudstone with low total organic carbon content(TOC)and siltstone is identified as the most favorable exploration target at present.

文摘The addition of cold flow improvers(CFIs)is considered as the optimum strategy to improve the cold flow properties(CFPs)of diesel fuels,but this strategy is always limited by the required large dosage.To obtain low-dosage and high-efficiency CFIs for diesel,1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride(THPA)was introduced as a third and polar monomer to enhance the depressive effects of alkyl methacrylatetrans anethole copolymers(C_(14)MC-TA).The terpolymers of alkyl methacrylate-trans anethole-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride(C_(14)MC-TA-THPA)were synthesized and compared with the binary copolymers of C_(14)MC-TA and alkyl methacrylate-1,2,3,6-tetrahydrophthalic anhydride(C_(14)MC-THPA).Results showed that C_(14)MC-THPA achieved the best depressive effects on the cold filter plugging point(CFPP)and solid point(SP)by 11℃and 16℃at a dosage of 1250 mg/L and monomer ratio of 6:1,while 1500mg/L C_(14)MC-TA(1:1)reached the optimal depressive effects on the CFPP and SP by 12℃and 18℃.THPA introduction significantly improved the depressive effects of C_(14)MC-TA.Lower dosages of C_(14)MCTA-THPA in diesel exerted better improvement effects on the CFPP and SP than that of C_(14)MC-TA and C_(14)MC-THPA.When the monomer ratio and dosage were 6:0.6:0.4 and 1000 mg/L,the improvement effect of C_(14)MC-TA-THPA on diesel reached the optimum level,and the CFPP and SP were reduced by 13℃and 19℃,respectively.A 3D nonlinear surface diagram fitted by a mathematical model was also used for the first time to better understand the relationships of monomer ratios,dosages,and depressive effects of CFIs in diesel.Surface analysis results showed that C_(14)MC-TA-THPA achieved the optimum depressive effects at a monomer ratio of 6:0.66:0.34 and dosage of 1000 mg/L,and the CFPP and SP decreased by 14℃ and 19℃,respectively.The predicted results were consistent with the actual ones.Additionally,the improvement mechanism of these copolymers in diesel was also explored.

文摘Understanding the sedimentation and simultaneous consolidation behavior of xanthan gum(XG)-biopolymer-treated soils remains a significant research gap in developing environmentally friendly ground-improvement techniques for geotechnical applications.This study addresses this gap by conducting laboratory experiments on kaolinite suspensions with varying XG-to-kaolinite mass ratios(mb/ms).The results showed that the XG treatment modified the sedimentation patterns by promoting larger floc formation and accelerated settling.Additionally,the XG treatment enhanced the shear stiffness and shear strength,particularly at shallow depths.At mb/ms ratios less than 1%,the volume compression was reduced by the XG;the coefficient of compressibility decreased by 49%at 1%mb/ms,and the consolidation was accelerated,as indicated by a 387%increase in the hydraulic conductivity at 0.5%mb/ms under the vertical effective stress of 40 kPa.Contrastingly,at mb/ms ratios greater than 1%,viscous XG hydrogels clogged pores,resulting in a 45%reduction in the coefficient of consolidation at 2%mb/ms under a vertical effective stress of 15 kPa and a 35%decrease in the hydraulic conductivity at 2%mb/ms under a vertical effective stress of 40 kPa.These findings underscore the potential of XG treatment in improving the sedimentation and consolidation processes,highlighting its applicability in geotechnical projects,such as dredging,landfilling,and artificial island construction.

文摘Sedimentation in reservoirs is a significant challenge that affects water storage capacity and operational efficiency.This study establishes a baseline sedimentation status for Mwimba Reservoir in Kasungu,Malawi,five years after its commissioning in 2017,using an integrated bathymetric survey and Geographic Information System(GIS)analysis.A bathymetric survey conducted in March 2022 collected depth measurements at 507 points along 23 transects,which were used to construct a Triangulated Irregular Network(TIN)model in ArcGIS for accurate volume calculations.Sediment concentration was determined from seven water samples using the filtration method.The original design volume of 89,200 m^(3)was compared to the current volume of 72,966 m^(3),indicating an 18.2% loss in capacity over the five-year period.Statistical analysis using a one-sample T-test confirmed that this reduction is significant(p=0.013).The annual sedimentation rate was estimated at 1.25 tonnes per year,and the reservoir’s projected operational life is 27.5 years if no intervention is undertaken.Despite a relatively low sedimentation rate compared to other regional reservoirs,targeted sediment management and further catchment analysis are essential.This study provides critical baseline data for future sediment monitoring,management,and conservation planning for Mwimba Reservoir and similar small water bodies in Sub-Saharan Africa.

文摘Sedimentation sludge water(SSW),a prominent constituent of wastewater from drinking water treatment plants,has received limited attention in terms of its treatment and utilization likely due to the perceived difficulties associated with managing SSW sludge.This study comprehensively evaluated the water quality of SSW by comparing it to a well-documented wastewater(filter backwash water(FBW)).Furthermore,it investigated the pollutant variations in the SSW during pre-sedimentation process,probed the underlying reaction mechanism,and explored the feasibility of employing a pilot-scale coagulation-sedimentation process for SSW treatment.The levels of most water quality parameters were generally comparable between SSW and FBW.During the pre-sedimentation of SSW,significant removal of turbidity,bacterial counts,and dissolved organic matter(DOM)was observed.The characterization of DOM components,molecular weight distributions,and optical properties revealed that the macromolecular proteinaceous biopolymers and humic acids were preferentially removed.The characterization of particulates indicated that high surface energy,zeta potential,and bridging/adsorption/sedimentation/coagulation capacities in aluminum residuals of SSW,underscoring its potential as a coagulant and promoting the generation and sedimentation of inorganic-organic complexes.The coagulation-sedimentation process could effectively remove pollutants from low-turbidity SSW([turbidity]0<15 NTU).These findings provide valuable insights into the water quality dynamics of SSW during the pre-sedimentation process,facilitating the development of SSW quality management and enhancing its reuse rate.

文摘This study focuses on tuffaceous clastic rocks of the Lower Cretaceous Qingshuihe Formation in the southern margin of Junggar Basin.It aims to explore the influence of sedimentation and parent rock on this kind of reservoir development.The results show that the tuffaceous components formed by the denudation of ultramafic and mafic rocks can transform into chlorite coating or hematite,while those from intermediate rock denudation can be dissolved or transformed into illite.Sedimentary facies and lithofacies are essential in controlling the evolutionary result of tuffaceous components.Matrix-supported medium conglomerate and grain-supported medium-fine conglomerate that developed in the fan delta plain,with a closed original geochemical systems,have been in the oxidizing environment for a long time.The tuffaceous matrices mainly transforms into hematite or illite.These minerals occupy the primary pores and are difficult to dissolve by felsic fluids,which inhibits the development of high-quality reservoirs.The grain-supported sandy fine conglomerate developed in the fan delta front was in the underwater reductive environment with an open original geochemical system.The tuffaceous matrices not only can transform into chlorite coating to strengthen the particle's compaction resistance,but also can be fully dissolved,which promotes the formation of high-quality reservoirs.

文摘Fluoroquinolones(FQs)have the propensity to accumulate in sediments once introduction into aquatic envi-ronments,thereby posing potential threats to benthic organisms,yet the ecotoxicity of sediment-associated FQs remains unclear.In this study,the toxicokinetics and responses of multiple biomarkers in Bellamya aeruginosa,exposed to the three commonly used FQs(norfloxacin,NOR;ciprofloxacin,CIP;levofloxacin,LEVO)at envi-ronmentally relevant concentrations were investigated under sediment exposure scenario.The results revealed that FQs were effectively ingested by B.aeruginosa from sediments,CIP showing the highest bioaccumulation(180.59μg/kg),followed by NOR(74.49μg/kg)and LEVO(36.02μg/kg).CIP exhibiting a highest uptake rate constant(Ks)(4.64 g/(g·day))and the lowest elimination rate constant(K_(e))(0.05 g/(g·day)).The descending order of biological half-life is as follows:CIP(13.62 days),LEVO(8.14 days),and NOR(6.83 days).NOR induced the activity of superoxide dismutase,catalase,and glutathione-S-transferase while CIP and LEVO depressed their activities and increased malondialdehyde content,indicating a more pronounced oxidative damage to B.aerug-inosa caused by CIP and LEVO than NOR.Furthermore,all three FQs were found to induce DNA damage and elevate acetylcholinesterase activity,suggesting distinct genotoxic and neurotoxic effects.Interestingly,despite its low bioaccumulation potential,LEVO exhibited high toxicity towards B.aeruginosa.These findings enhance our understanding of the ecotoxicity of FQs in sediments,providing further evidence of their potential ecological risks.

文摘With the legislative development,the organic and inorganic composition separation has become the primary requirement for sewer sediment disposal,however the relevant technology has been rarely reported and the driving mechanism was still unclear.In this study,direct disintegration of biopolymers and indirect broken of connection point were investigated on the hydrolysis and component separation.Three typical sewer sediment treatment approaches,i.e.,alkaline,thermal and cation exchange treatments were proposed,which represented the hydrolysis-driving forces of chemical hydrolysis,physical hydrolysis and innovative cation bridging break-age.The results showed that the organic and inorganic separation rates of sewer sediment driven by alkaline,thermal and cation exchange treatments reached 21.26%,23.80%,and 19.56%-48.0%,respectively,compared to 4.43%in control.The secondary structure of proteins was disrupted,transitioning from𝛼α-helix to𝛽β-turn and random coil.Meanwhile,much biopolymers were released from solid to the liquid phase.From thermody-namic perspective,sewer sediment deposition was controlled by short-range interfacial interactions described by extended Derjaguin-Landau-Verwey-Overbeek theory.Additionally,the separation of organic and inorganic components was positively correlated with the thermodynamic parameters(Corr=0.87),highlighted the robust-ness of various driving forces.And the flocculation energy barriers were 2.40(alkaline),1.60 times(thermal),and 4.02–4.97 times(cation exchange)compared to control group.The findings revealed the contrition differ-ence of direct disintegration of gelatinous biopolymers and indirect breakage of composition connection sites in sediment composition separation,filling the critical gaps in understanding the specific mechanisms of sediment biopolymer disintegration and intermolecular connection breakage.

文摘This study compares the environmental sustainability of five alternatives for the remediation of marine sediments of one of the most polluted coastal sites in Europe(Bagnoli-Coroglio bay,Mediterranean Sea),using the Life Cycle Assessment(LCA)methodology.The treatments are either in-situ or exsitu,the latter requiring an initial dredging to transport the contaminated sediments to the management site.More in detail,four ex-situ remediation technologies based on landfilling,bioremediation,electrokinetic technique and soil washing were identified.These technologies are compared to an in-situ strategy currently under validation for enhancing bioremediation of the polluted sediments of the Bagnoli-Coroglio site.Our results indicate that the disposal in landfilling site is the worst option in most categories(e.g.,650 kg CO_(2) eq./t of treated sediment,considering the nearest landfilling site),followed by the bioremediation,mainly due to the high energy demand.Electrokinetic remediation,soil washing,and innovative in-situ technology represent the most sustainable options.In particular,the new in-situ technology appears to be the least impacting in all categories(e.g.,54 kg CO_(2) eq./t of treated sediment),although it is expected to require longer treatment time(estimated up to 12 months based on its potential efficiency).It can reduce the impact on climate change more than 12 times compared to the disposal and 7 times compared to bioremediation in addition to the possibility to avoid/reduce the dredging operations and the consequent dispersion of pollutants.The results open relevant perspectives towards more eco-sustainable and costly effective actions for the reclamation of contaminated marine sediments.

文摘In order to accelerate the sedimentation of super-large-scale argillized ultrafine tailings with bad features such as low settling velocity, muddy overflow water, and large flocculant dosage, a fly-ash-based magnetic coagulant （FAMC） was used in a dynamic experimental device. To obtain the best possible combination of the impact factors （magnetic intensity, FAMC dosage, flocculant dosage, and feed speed） for minimum overflow turbidity, a response surface methodology test coupled with a four-factor five-level central composite design was conducted. The synergy mechanism of FAMC and flocculant was analyzed based on the potential measurement and scanning electron microscopy. The results show that the flocculant dosage, overflow turbidity, and solid content can be reduced by 50%, 90%, and 80%, while the handling capacity per unit and efficiency of backfill and dry stacking can be promoted by 20%, 17%, and 13%, respectively, with a magnetic intensity of 0.3 T, FAMC dosage of 200 mL/t, flocculant dosage of 30 g/t, and feed speed of 0.6 t/（m^2·h）. Therefore, synergy of FAMC and flocculant has obvious efficiency in saving energy and protecting the environment by allowing 70×10^6 t/a of argillized ultrafine tailings slurry to be disposed safely and efficiently with a cost saving of more than 53×106 Yuan/a, which gives it great promise for use in domestic and foreign mines.

文摘The high-efficiency planting mode for five crops a year of fresh edible ＂faba bean/spring maize＋soybean-autumn maize/autumn soybean＂ was introduced, and its yield and economic benefits were compared with the planting mode of three crops a year of ＂faba bean-spring maize/red bean＂. The results showed that the planting method for fresh edible ＂faba bean/spring maize＋soybean-autumn maize/autumn soybean＂ was much easier to operate with the input-output ratio of about185.6%, and its yield and economic benefits were 2.09 and 1.83 times of that of the planting mode for three crops a year, significantly improving the agricultural yield and income of farmers. In addition, the cropping index of the planting mode for fresh edible fresh edible ＂faba bean/spring maize ＋soybean-autumn maize/autumn soybean＂ reached up to 350%, and planting faba bean once a year and soybean twice a year could make the biological fixation amount of nitrogen increase 350-450kg/m^2, which equaled to up to 700 kg/m^2 of urea, showing significant ecological and social benefits. Based on the comparison results, the high-yield culture techniques of the planting mode of fresh edible ＂faba bean/spring maize＋soybean-autumn maize/autumn soybean＂ were summarized.
文摘A distinct echo-character was assigned to sedimentation processes, which were then verified using data from surface sediment samples and piston cores. of echo types on the continental slope perfectly reflecting both sediment erosion and deposition, four edimentary types have been recognized:(1) submarine clides distributed on the shelfbreak and characterized by high silt and water conten, loose struture, poor consolidation and low shearing strength; (2) slumps occurring on the shelfbreak, middle slope channel and reef margin near Dongsha Islands, but having different origins; (3) debris flow occurring either in sea areas around Dongsha Atoll, or on the continental slope’s three channels, where the transparent debris flow deposits often overlie or abruptly truncate highly stratified hemipelagic sediments;are of limited to local extent, ranging from a few square kilometers to hundreds of square kilometers in area; but on the lowr slope, usually occur as 1000 km2, about 100 km2 individual complexes; and (4) turbidites, limited on the continental slope; are occurring as migrating waves of sediments at the the of the slope, and are rhythmically-bedded, coarse-grained. Their migration is a result of overbank flow downslope through the submarine channel at the west. The slope faces are dominated by mass wasting deposition, and a few turbidite current sediments. As wasting is an important process. Some debris flow eomplexes on the west are buried by well-stratified confomable sediments, whereas others on the east appear on the present seafloor and therefore are relatively recent.

文摘The Helanshan tectonic belt is located to the west of the Ordos Basin, and separates the Alxa(or Yinshan)Massif to the west from the Ordos block to the east. Triassic sedimentation in the Helanshan tectonic belt records important information about tectono-sedimentary process between the Alxa Massif and the Ordos block. Detailed geological mapping and investigation on the lithological package, sedimentary facies and paleocurrent orientation have been conducted on the Middle to Upper Triassic clastic rocks in the Helanshan tectonic belt. The succession is characterized by upward-fining sequence and comprises coarse grained alluvial-fluvial facies in the lower part as well as deltaic-lacustrine facies in the upper part. Based on detailed study and comparisons on the sedimentary sequence along various sections, the Middle to Upper Triassic strata have been revealed that show clear southeastward-deepening sedimentary differentiation and transgression from southwest to northeast, which are consistent with the southeastward flowing paleocurrent. These features indicate a southeastward-dipping paleogeography in the Helanshan tectonic belt, which was original western part of southeastward orientated fluviallacustrine system in the northwestern proto-Ordos Basin. Further to the east, the Triassic succession in the Ordos Basin displays gradually thickening and alluvial-fluvial system flowed from southeast to northwest, showing a huge thick sedimentary wedge in the western basin margin. Together with the Late Permiane Early Triassic closure of the Paleo-Asian Ocean to the north, the Late Triassic extensional structures and diabase dykes in the Helanshan tectonic belt, all the above sedimentary features could be mostly interpreted as records of an extensional basin correlated to post-collisional collapse of the Central Asian Orogenic Belt.

文摘On the basis of the measurement of 210Pbex and 137Cs activities in the sediment cores taken from the intertidal zone on the west coast of the Bohai Gulf, the average sedimentation rates of modern sediments are calculated. The results indicate that in the sandy area of the intertidal zone (from Daogouzi to the Duliujian River), the sedimentation rate from 1955 to 1963 is 3.43-4.06 cm/a, and is within the range of 0.65￣1.59 cm/a since 1963. The average sedimentation rate in the muddy area (around Qikou) is approximately 1.81 cm/a. The results above suggest that the sandy area of the intertidal zone has experienced rapid sedimentation from the 1950s to the 1960s, and the sedimentation slows down after the 1960s, and the sedimentation rates increase from north to south spatially. The rapid sedi- mentation from the 1950s to the 1960s in the sandy area is due to the fact that North China has plentiful precipitation during this period and the intertidal zone is supplied with abundant matter sources for sedimentation. After the 1960s, the weakened sedimentation may be a result of the reduction of sand transported to the intertidal zone, which is a consequence of diminished rainfall in North China and intensive human activities in the Haihe basin.

文摘Mountainous torrents often carry large amounts of loose materials into the rivers, thus causing strong sediment transport. Experimentally it was found for the first time that when the intensive sediment motion occurs downstream over a gentle slope, the siltation of the riverbed is induced and the sediment particles can move upstream rapidly in the form of a retrograde sand wave, resulting in a higher water level along the river. To further study the complex mechanisms of this problem, a sediment mass model in the framework of the Smoothed Particle Hydrodynamics(SPH) method was presented to simulate the riverbed evolution, sediment particle motion, and the generation and development of dynamic hydraulic jump under the condition of sufficient sediment supply over a steep slope with varying angles. Because the sediment is not a continuous medium, the marker particle tracking approach was proposed to represent a piece of sediment with a marked sediment particle. The twophase SPH model realizes the interaction between the sediment and fluid by moving the bed boundary particles up and down, so it can reasonably treat the fluid-sediment interfaces with high CPU efficiency. The critical triggering condition of sediment motion, the propagation of the hydraulic jump and the initial siltation position were all systematically studied. The experimental and numerical results revealed the extra disastrous sediment effect in a mountainous flood. The findings will be useful references to the disaster prevention and mitigation in mountainous rivers.
