Determination of tectonic background for sedimentary basin from sandstone geochemistry

The chemical composition of sedimentary rocks is mainly controlled by source rocks. Through examining chemical composition of terrigenous rocks, the tectonic evolution of a sedimentary basin can be modeled. The Turpan Basin belongs to a continental sedimentary basin and its source rocks are derived from the upper continental crust.

Fe3Al合金的高温变形行为

用载荷松弛法对Ｆｅ－２８Ａｌ－２Ｔｉ合金在较高温度下的变形行为进行了研究．测定了Ｆｅ－２８Ａｌ－２Ｔｉ合金在高温变形时的载荷松弛曲线、应力减小因子Ｙ及激活能值,并对试样进行了显微结构观察．结果表明,Ｆｅ－２８Ａｌ－２Ｔｉ合金的高温变形是一个亚晶界吸收位错,而且不断向大角晶界转变的过程．     

新疆植物物种多样性的特点分析

新疆土地面积占全国１／６,约１６４．６８万ｋｍ２,位于欧亚大陆腹地,景观与地形复杂,气候变化明显,植物种质资源特殊。新疆高等植物４０８１种（包括２２９亚种、变种与变型）,隶属于１６１科８７７属,新疆植物多样性的特点如下：１）单种科、单种属及寡种属丰富,分别为８０科、３７４属及３１５属。２）短命及类短命植物丰富,已知的有２３２种,隶属于２７科１１４属,主要分布于准噶尔盆地边缘。３）新疆特有种稀少,但中国、塔什库尔干、天山、阿尔泰山、昆仑山及帕米尔高原的特有种特别丰富。４）近５０年以来,发表的新疆新分类群较多,有３６０余种。５）中国仅分布于新疆的植物有１７７３种,其中１００种以上的科有４科（豆科,伞形科,菊科,禾本科）,总数为６２２种;８０种以上的科也有４科,总数为３３１种。最后,对新疆极端环境下的植物种质资源及栽培植物的野生近缘种的保护问题提出了几点建议。     

美东地区罗德河流域地下水中铝形态分布的化学平衡模式计算

美东地区的罗德河流域遭受着严重的酸沉降侵蚀．在酸性条件下,铝从土壤中大量溶解并迁移到水环境中．地表水中升高的铝浓度对鱼类产生毒害,监测地表水和土壤水中的铝形态及浓度变化已成为问题的关键．本文报导了用化学平衡模式计算法分析美东地区罗德河流域地下水中的铝形态分布,获得了有价值的结论

Symmetry perception in an insect

Symmetrical visual patterns have a salient status in human perception, as evinced by their prevalent occurrence in art, and also in animal perception, where they may be an indicator of phenotypic and genotypic quality. Symmetry perception has been demonstrated in humans, birds, dolphins and apes. Here we show that bees trained to discriminate bilaterally symmetrical from non-symmetrical patterns learn the task and transfer it appropriately to novel stimuli, thus demonstrating a capacity to detect and generalize symmetry or asymmetry. We conclude that bees, and possibly flower-visiting insects in general, can acquire a generalized preference towards symmetrical or, alternatively, asymmetrical patterns depending on experience, and that symmetry detection is preformed or can be learned as perceptual category by insects, because it can be extracted as an independent visual pattern feature. Bees show a predisposition for learning and generalized symmetry because, if trained to it, they choose it more frequently, come closer to and hover longer in front of the novel symmetrical stimuli than the bees trained for asymmetry do for the novel asymmetrical stimuli. Thus, even organisms with comparatively small nervous systems can generalize about symmetry, and favour symmetrical over asymmetrical patterns.     

A massive phytoplankton bloom induced by an ecosystem-scale iron fertilization experiment in the equatorial Pacific Ocean

The seeding of an expanse of surface waters in the equatorial Pacific Ocean with low concentrations of dissolved iron triggered a massive phytoplankton bloom which consumed large quantities of carbon dioxide and nitrate that these microscopic plants cannot fully utilize under natural conditions. These and other observations provide unequivocal support for the hypothesis that phytoplankton growth in this oceanic region is limited by iron bioavailability.     

Medical representations of the body in Japan: gender, class, and discourse in the eighteenth century

This paper examines the introduction of European anatomy to Japan via translated medical texts in the eighteenth century. It argues how detailed illustrations of the body found in the texts presented a new discourse by which to objectify and control the body, and new metaphors and analogies by which to view society. Inspection of bodily parts through dissection and the reading of anatomical texts marked a transition to Western forms of science, to 'reliable' knowledge which was certified by the social status of the author. By looking at one important text, the Kaitai shinsho [A New Book of Anatomy] (1774), it will be shown that changes in representations of the body reflect the social construction of gender.
