东海陆架西南部台北坳陷古近纪孢粉植物群的时空分布

详细叙述东海陆架西南部台北坳陷古近纪不同凹陷区各时期孢粉植物群展布情况。区内古近纪孢粉植物群可分为早古新世、晚古新世、早始新世和中始新世4个发育阶段,早古新世孢粉植物群仅见于坳陷西南的局部地区,称Abietineaepollenities/Cedripites-Parcisporites-Momipites leffingwellii组合,晚古新世孢粉植物群分4种类型,椒江凹陷称Taxodiaceaepollenites-Engelhardtioidites-Momipites leffingwellii组合,丽水-福州凹陷称Taxodiacenepollenites-Myricaceoipollenites-Momipites leffingwellii组合,闽江凹陷南部称Taxodiaceaepollenites-Momipites leffingwellii组合,闽江册陷北部称Lygodiumsporites-Cicatricosisporites dorogensis-Tiliaepollenites-Bombacacidites组合。早始新世孢粉植物群具南北差异,北部以海金沙科和椴科孢粉植物发育为特征,南部以海金沙科、椴科和杨海科孢粉植物群发育为特征,以上均指示为湿热的亚热带气候。中始新世本区孢粉植物群比较一致,称Cicatricosisporties dorogensis-Ephedripites(D)-Nitrariadites组合,指示为受到干旱气候影响的亚热带气候。区内缺失渐新统,故无渐新世孢粉记录。     

长江三角洲东缘晚新近纪沉积的孢粉与古环境研究

作者对长江三角洲东缘地区的南汇鹤鸣孔(Hm)、东海1井、高桥G2孔3口钻井晚新近纪地层的孢粉作了研究和对比,划分出了6个孢粉组合带和3个亚带,恢复了本地区植被演替、气候波动的6个阶段:第1阶段为稀疏的针叶、落叶阔叶混交林,反映气候凉冷稍湿;第2阶段为针叶阔叶混交林草地,反映气候温凉略湿;第3阶段为含常绿阔叶树的针叶阔叶混交林,反映气候温和略干;第4阶段为以常绿栎类、栲属、杨梅等为主的常绿阔叶林,反映气候热暖潮湿;第5阶段是以栎、松、禾本科为主的针叶、阔叶混交林,反映气候温暖略干;第6阶段是以落叶栎类、常绿栎类、松为主的落叶阔叶、常绿阔叶、针叶混交林草地,反映气候温暖湿润。这种气候波动与世界性气候变化相一致,为本地区的地层年代划分和对比提供了新的证据,为晚新近纪古植被、古气候、古环境的重建提供了重要的孢粉学资料。     

末次冰期以来湛江湖光岩玛珥湖孢粉记录及古环境变化

通过对湛江湖光岩玛珥湖钻孔孢粉记录的研究认为,末次冰期以来,该区植被类型从早期的南亚热带季风常绿阔叶林依次演替为,中亚热带常绿、落叶阔叶林→南亚热带季风常绿阔叶林→中亚热带常绿—落叶阔叶—针叶混交林(湖边草地)→热带季雨林→半常绿季雨林。气候最寒冷的时期温度比目前至少降低了4—6℃以上。全新世早期相对于旱。

黑龙江省柳树河盆地古近系八虎力组孢粉组合及其时代和古环境意义

黑龙江省东部柳树河盆地古近系八虎力组为一套含油页岩矿床的地层。目前,对其时代的认定还没有确切的古生物学依据,尚存在不同的看法,同时,关于成矿环境的探讨也较薄弱。通过对该套地层开展系统的孢粉学研究,由下向上划分了4个孢粉组合,分别是Quercoidites-Retitricolpites-Retitricolporites组合、Retitricolpites-Retitricolporites组合、Polypodiaceaesporites-Retitricolpites-Retitricolporites组合和Pinuspollenites-Polypodiaceaesporites组合。根据孢粉组合特征,详细讨论了孢粉组合的地质时代,指出八虎力组时代为中始新世至晚始新世。根据孢粉组合的组成情况推测,八虎力组沉积时为亚热带-暖温带温暖湿润气候下的山间盆地环境。在山地高处生长有针、阔叶混交林植被,在低洼处生长有湿地水生植物、蕨类和苔藓类,从而有利于油页岩的形成和保存。温度向上可能有所降低,但幅度并不大。     

渤海湾盆地南堡凹陷始新世—渐新世孢粉、藻类与地层对比

南堡凹陷是位于渤海湾盆地黄骅坳陷北部的小型构造单元。为深入研究南堡凹陷古近纪孢粉组合,采集了Gp1和Np288等七口钻井样品。经传统酸、碱处理法获得孢粉化石,并在研究区古近系地层中划分出六个孢粉亚组合:沙三段4亚段的Ephedripites-Taxodiaceaepollenites-Ulmoideipites tricostatus-Pterisisporites属于始新世鲁特期、沙三段1—3亚段的Quercoidites microhenrici-Ulmipollenites minor属于始新世中晚期、沙二段的Ephedripites-Rutaceoipollis-Meliaceoidites与沙一段的Quercoidites-Meliaceoidites属于渐新世早期、东二段与东三段的Ulmipollenites undulosus-Piceaepollenites-Tsugaepollenites与东一段的Juglandaceae-Celtispollenites属于渐新世中晚期。研究区古近纪孢粉组合与黄骅坳陷中北区及滩海地区的孢粉组合可以形成良好对比,并且研究区局部出现的沙三段4、5亚段与渤海湾盆地普遍出现的沙河街组四段上部为同一时期的产物。     

广西合浦盆地古新世上洋组孢粉组合及其地层意义

广西合浦盆地上洋组在亚1井中有很好的揭示,明显表现为三分特征。作者通过对该井上洋组微体植物化石的研究,建立了三个孢粉、藻类组合,由下而上分别为:Boehlensipollis-Tricolporo-pollenites-Tricolpites-Ulmoideipites组合;Boehlensipollis qingjiangensis-Ulmoideipites-Nuxpollen-ites-Pentapollenites组合和Pinaceae-Ulmaceae-Liqudambarpollenites-Conicoidium组合。前两个组合可与北部湾长流组及广东南雄盆地上湖组等地古新世孢粉组合进行对比。第三个组合以松科花粉含量突然增加为特征,在我国许多地区晚古新世孢粉组合中都有反映。 上洋组植被在古新世早、中期以阔叶植物为特征,指示一种热带—亚热带型气候,早期干旱,中期略有缓和,晚期植被以针叶阔叶混交林为特征,表明气候变温凉。     

藏南江孜地区古近纪甲查拉组孢粉组合及古环境分析

甲查拉组位于藏南特提斯喜马拉雅北带的江孜盆地,是江孜地区的最高海相地层,被视为新特提斯洋关闭时代的主要证据。通过对甲查拉组剖面的孢粉分析,自下而上划分为3个孢粉组合带:1 Ulmipollenites minor+Ulmoideipites-Myricipites组合带;2 Quercoidites-Caryapollenites组合带;3 Abiespollenites-Betulaceoipollenites+Betulaepollenites组合带。甲查拉组孢粉植物群揭示出其沉积自晚古新世开始,其沉积结束可能延续到早渐新世。推测晚古新世—早始新世为温暖湿润的暖温带或亚热带气候,始新世中晚期为温暖、潮湿的亚热带气候,早渐新世为温和湿润的暖温带气候。     

Late Devonian and early Carboniferous microfloras from the Hakkarı Province of southeastern Turkey

Late Devonian and early Carboniferous miospore and microphytoplankton assemblages are described for the first time from southeastern Turkey. The preliminary data show that assemblages recorded from the upper part of the Yiginli Formation are late Famennian in age and can be correlated with the VH, LL, LE Miospore biozones of western Europe, whilst assemblages from the overlying Köprülü Formation are considered to be middle to late Tournaisian in age and are tentatively assigned to the PC Miospore biozone of western Europe. Regional palynological correlations with other sections in North Africa and the Middle East are proposed. A new species, Verruciretusispora loboziakii is described.     

Middle Jurassic Spore- pollen Assemblages from Turpan- Shanshan Area,Xinjiang

The Middle Jurassic palynoflora from the two wells of PUl and CN1 of Turpan-Shanshan area in Xinjiang consists of 97 species of fossil spores and pollen grains referred to 45 genera, of which 2 species are newly described. Three palynological assemblages including: 1) Cyathidites-Cycadopites-Quadraeculina (CCQ), 2) Cyathidites-Classopollis-Picites (CCP) and 3 ) Granu-latisporites-Classopollis-Podocarpidites (GCP) assemblages are established in the Xishanyao, Sanjianfang and Qiketai Formations, respectively. Comparisons have been made between these assemblages with those of the adjacent regions in Xinjiang and other domestic areas and at abroad. The geological age of the CCQ assemblage is suggested to be at early Middle Jurassic (corresponding to Aalenian to Bajocian age); while the CCP and GCP assemblages are considered to be at late Middle Jurassic (corresponding to early to late Bathonian age, respectively).     

New adapiform primate of Old World affinities from the Devil's Graveyard Formation of Texas

Most adapiform primates from North America are members of an endemic radiation of notharctines. North American notharctines flourished during the Early and early Middle Eocene, with only two genera persisting into the late Middle Eocene. Here we describe a new genus of adapiform primate from the Devil’s Graveyard Formation of Texas. Mescalerolemur horneri, gen. et sp. nov., is known only from the late Middle Eocene (Uintan) Purple Bench locality. Phylogenetic analyses reveal that Mescalerolemur is more closely related to Eurasian and African adapiforms than to North American notharctines. In this respect, M. horneri is similar to its sister taxon Mahgarita stevensi from the late Duchesnean of the Devil’s Graveyard Formation. The presence of both genera in the Big Bend region of Texas after notharctines had become locally extinct provides further evidence of faunal interchange between North America and East Asia during the middle Eocene. The fact that Mescalerolemur and Mahgarita are both unknown outside of Texas also supports prior hypotheses that low-latitude faunal assemblages in North America demonstrate increased endemism by the late middle Eocene.     

Middle Eocene–Early Pliocene Subantarctic planktic foraminiferal biostratigraphy of Site 1090, Agulhas Ridge

The analysis of planktic foraminiferal assemblages from Site 1090 (ODP Leg 177), located in the central part of the Subantarctic Zone south of South Africa, provided a geochronology of a 330-m-thick sequence spanning the Middle Eocene to Early Pliocene. A sequence of discrete bioevents enables the calibration of the Antarctic Paleogene (AP) Zonation with lower latitude biozonal schemes for the Middle–Late Eocene interval. In spite of the poor recovery of planktic foraminiferal assemblages, a correlation with the lower latitude standard planktic foraminiferal zonations has been attempted for the whole surveyed interval. Identified bioevents have been tentatively calibrated to the geomagnetic polarity time scale following the biochronology of Berggren et al. (1995). Besides planktic foraminiferal bioevents, the disappearance of the benthic foraminifera Nuttallides truempyi has been used to approximate the Middle/Late Eocene boundary. A hiatus of at least 11.7 Myr occurs between 78 and 71 m composite depth extending from the Early Miocene to the latest Miocene–Early Pliocene. Middle Eocene assemblages exhibit a temperate affinity, while the loss of several planktic foraminiferal species by late Middle to early Late Eocene time reflects cooling. During the Late Eocene–Oligocene intense dissolution caused impoverishment of planktic foraminiferal assemblages possibly following the emplacement of cold, corrosive bottom waters. Two warming peaks are, however, observed: the late Middle Eocene is marked by the invasion of the warmer water Acarinina spinuloinflata and Hantkenina alabamensis at 40.5 Ma, while the middle Late Eocene experienced the immigration of some globigerinathekids including Globigerinatheka luterbacheri and Globigerinatheka cf. semiinvoluta at 34.3 Ma. A more continuous record is observed for the Early Miocene and the Late Miocene–Early Pliocene where planktic foraminiferal assemblages show a distinct affinity with southern mid- to high-latitude faunas.

新疆车排子地区孢粉植物群与古气候

通过对新疆准噶尔盆地西北缘车排子地区多口探井样品分析,见丰富的孢粉化石,建立了PiceapollisPodocarpidites-Tsugaepollenites,Parajunggarsporites-Piceaepollenites,Protohaploxypinus-Striatoabieites-Hamiapollenites三个孢粉组合。根据孢粉母体植物形态和生态特征、干湿度环境和气候环境,对其孢粉植物群反映的植被类型、干湿度类型和气候带类型进行了划分,认为晚中新世孢粉植被类型为针叶林,所处的气候环境为湿润的暖温带;早白垩世孢粉植被类型为混交林,所处的气候环境为湿润的亚热带-暖温带;晚石炭世时期其植被面貌是以阔叶植物为主,所处的气候环境为半干旱的暖温带。     

Aspects of middle and late triassic palynology. 2. Preliminary palynological data from the hornos—siles formation of the prebetic zone,NE province of Jaen (Southeastern Spain)

The present paper provides preliminary palynostratigraphical data from the Hornos section, one of the characteristic sections of the Hornos—Siles Formation (Triassic of the Prebetic Zone), NE province of Jaén, Spain.Some remarks are made on the lithostratigraphical development of this formation and its tectonic complications. The palynological assemblages recognized are attributed to the scheme of successive phases in compositional development of palynological assemblages established for the late Middle—Late Triassic; the assemblages indicate a Ladinian—Karnian age for the formation.
