断陷盆地构造枢纽部位油气富集规律

以十屋断陷为例,根据其构造演化、主要断层特征及油气成藏条件分析,揭示多旋回断陷盆地构造枢纽带与油气富集关系.结果表明:十屋断陷枢纽部位经历了断陷期、断拗过渡期、拗陷期、萎缩隆升期等复杂的构造演化,多期差异构造变形及断裂活动导致了小宽枢纽带南段和北段具有相似性及差异性,后期构造反转发育部位多为早期断层发育部位,且主要集中在主干断层上,构造运动产生位移被断裂和褶皱吸收;不同阶段的隆起部位相叠加,使枢纽部位与构造高点相对位置发生变化,枢纽部位相对位置由原来的古隆起演变为斜坡部位;枢纽部位早期为油气的有利指向区,晚期具有良好的保存条件,同时发育多类型圈闭、有利沉积相组合及生储盖组合,围绕枢纽带可形成复式油气聚集带.

Mangroves enhance the biomass of coral reef fish communities in the Caribbean

Mangrove forests are one of the world's most threatened tropical ecosystems with global loss exceeding 35% (ref. 1). Juvenile coral reef fish often inhabit mangroves, but the importance of these nurseries to reef fish population dynamics has not been quantified. Indeed, mangroves might be expected to have negligible influence on reef fish communities: juvenile fish can inhabit alternative habitats and fish populations may be regulated by other limiting factors such as larval supply or fishing. Here we show that mangroves are unexpectedly important, serving as an intermediate nursery habitat that may increase the survivorship of young fish. Mangroves in the Caribbean strongly influence the community structure of fish on neighbouring coral reefs. In addition, the biomass of several commercially important species is more than doubled when adult habitat is connected to mangroves. The largest herbivorous fish in the Atlantic, Scarus guacamaia, has a functional dependency on mangroves and has suffered local extinction after mangrove removal. Current rates of mangrove deforestation are likely to have severe deleterious consequences for the ecosystem function, fisheries productivity and resilience of reefs. Conservation efforts should protect connected corridors of mangroves, seagrass beds and coral reefs.

Differential parasitism of Peromyscus maniculatus and Peromyscus truei by Cuterebra larvae

During a 2 - month field study of sympatric Peromyscus maniculatus (Deer Mouse) and Peromyscus truei (pinyon mouse), 12/152 (7.9 percent) P. maniculatus and 1/45 (2.2 percent) P. truei were parasitized by Cuterebra larvae. Both parasitized P. maniculatus and P. truei and nonparasitized P. maniculatus selected different habitats in the community. Differential parasitism of P. maniculatus and P. truei was possibly caused by host specificity of Cuterebra, whereas differential parasitism of P. maniculatus may have been due to habitat selection.     

Minimally invasive high-speed imaging of sarcomere contractile dynamics in mice and humans

Sarcomeres are the basic contractile units of striated muscle. Our knowledge about sarcomere dynamics has primarily come from in vitro studies of muscle fibres and analysis of optical diffraction patterns obtained from living muscles. Both approaches involve highly invasive procedures and neither allows examination of individual sarcomeres in live subjects. Here we report direct visualization of individual sarcomeres and their dynamical length variations using minimally invasive optical microendoscopy to observe second-harmonic frequencies of light generated in the muscle fibres of live mice and humans. Using microendoscopes as small as 350 microm in diameter, we imaged individual sarcomeres in both passive and activated muscle. Our measurements permit in vivo characterization of sarcomere length changes that occur with alterations in body posture and visualization of local variations in sarcomere length not apparent in aggregate length determinations. High-speed data acquisition enabled observation of sarcomere contractile dynamics with millisecond-scale resolution. These experiments point the way to in vivo imaging studies demonstrating how sarcomere performance varies with physical conditioning and physiological state, as well as imaging diagnostics revealing how neuromuscular diseases affect contractile dynamics.     

某型航空发动机对插板式进气畸变的响应

为得到较为准确的发动机对进气畸变的稳定性响应模型,首先分析了由实验所得到的某型航空涡扇发动机进口扰流插板产生的稳态总压畸变和紊流分布。相对于压气机转子进口,将周向分布的稳态总压畸变和截面脉动压力处理成为一组不同频率的压力激励波形分布。通过频谱分析得到:在发动机失稳前,稳态畸变形成的波形频率最低,幅值最大,是引起发动机失稳的主要原因。对该组合畸变激励波用一阶响应模型进行动态修正并使用平行压气机分析模型,得到了经修正的压气机喘振边界和得到改善的发动机进气畸变响应模型。最后分别计算了高、低压压气机逐步失稳的工作点移动过程。结果表明:与压气机出口实验失稳波形十分接近,该模型准确可行。     

Ecological constraints on diversification in a model adaptive radiation

Taxonomic diversification commonly occurs through adaptive radiation, the rapid evolution of a single lineage into a range of genotypes or species each adapted to a different ecological niche. Radiation size (measured as the number of new types) varies widely between phylogenetically distinct taxa and between replicate radiations within a single taxon where the ecological opportunities available seem to be identical. Here we show how variation in energy input (productivity) and environmental disturbance combine to determine the extent of diversification in a single radiating lineage of Pseudomonas fluorescens adapting to laboratory conditions. Diversity peaked at intermediate rates of both productivity and disturbance and declined towards the extremes in a manner reminiscent of well-known ecological patterns. The mechanism responsible for the decrease in diversity arises from pleiotropic fitness costs associated with niche specialization, the effects of which are modulated by gradients of productivity and disturbance. Our results indicate that ecological gradients may constrain the size of adaptive radiations, even in the presence of the strong diversifying selection associated with ecological opportunity, by decoupling evolutionary diversification from ecological coexistence.     

局部固支功能梯度板的横向弯曲研究

研究了局部固支功能梯度方板在横向均布载荷作用下的静力学问题。假设功能梯度材料由陶瓷和钢组成，材料弹性模量设计为沿着板的厚度方向按照幂指数形式连续变化，功能梯度方板的四个边均为局部固支，应用Kirchhoff薄板理论和虚功原理推导了板的静力学有限元方程。另分别考虑了各边50%固支和25%固支两种情况，在板材料为纯陶瓷和纯钢时，将所得结果与ANSYS软件结果对比，验证了所建模型的准确性。最后，重点分析了梯度指数对板面和边界最大挠度的影响。结果表明梯度指数和固支范围是决定最大挠度的关键参数，其中固支范围对边界上最大挠度的影响更大。
