Relationship of summer soil moisture with early winter monsoon and air temperature over eastern China - Ge Liu; Jun‐Ming Chen; Li‐Ren Ji; Shu‐Qing Sun (International Journal of Climatology, 2012)
The time‐lagged effect of summer soil moisture (SM) on ensuing winter climate in eastern China is examined. The East Asian winter monsoon (EAWM) in early winter (November) and associated air temperature over eastern China are shown to significantly correlate with the previous summer (June–August) SM in eastern China with a center located at the lower reaches of the Yellow River (LRYR). The positive anomalies of summer SM, persisting for a few months, may act as a buffer to defer the ground cooling of eastern China in early winter mainly through modulating thermal capacity. And the warmer ground of eastern China could lead to a warmer air temperature above the ground through direct land–air interactions and through indirectly adjusting the EAWM which is sensitive to the land–sea thermal contrast. These results provide an empirical predictor for the EAWM and for the variability of air temperature over eastern China in early winter. Copyright © 2011 Royal Meteorological Society

Provenance and thermal history of the Bayan Har Group in the western‐central Songpan–Ganzi–Bayan Har terrane: Implications for tectonic evolution of the northern Tibetan Plateau - Guo‐Can Wang; Robert P. Wintsch; John I. Garver; Mary Roden‐Tice; She‐Fa Chen; Ke‐Xin Zhang; Qi‐Xiang Lin; Yun‐Hai Zhu; Shu‐Yuan Xiang; De‐Wei Li (Island Arc, 2009)
Triassic turbidites dominate the Songpan–Ganzi–Bayan Har (SGBH) terrane of the northern Tibetan Plateau. U‐Pb dating on single detrital zircon grains from the Triassic Bayan Har Group turbidites yield peaks at 400–500 m.y., 900–1000 m.y., 1800–1900 m.y., and 2400–2500 m.y., These results are consistent with recently published U‐Pb zircon ages of pre‐Triassic bedrock in the East Kunlun, Altyn, Qaidam, Qilian and Alaxa areas to the north, suggesting that provenance of the Bayan Har Group may include these rocks. The similarities in the compositions of the lithic arkosic sandstones of the Bayan Har Group with the sandstones of the Lower‐Middle Triassic formations in the East Kunlun terrane to the north also suggests a common northern provenance for both. A well exposed angular unconformity between the Carboniferous–Middle Permian mélange sequences and the overlying Upper Permian or Triassic strata indicates that regional deformation occurred between the Middle and Late Permian. This deformation may have been the result of a soft collision between the Qiangtang terrane and the North China Plate and the closure of the Paleo‐Tethyan oceanic basin. The Bayan Har Group turbidites were then deposited in a re‐opened marine basin on a shelf environment. Fission‐track dating of detrital zircons from the Bayan Har Group sandstones revealed pre‐ and post‐depositional age components, suggesting that the temperatures did not reach the temperatures necessary to anneal retentive zircon fission tracks (250–300°C). A 282–292 m.y. peak age defined by low U concentration, retentive zircons likely reflects a northern granitic source. Euhedral zircons from two lithic arkoses with abundant volcanic fragments in the southern area yielded a ∼237 m.y. zircon fission track (ZFT) peak age, likely recording the maximum age of deposition. A dominant post‐depositional 170–185 m.y. ZFT peak age suggests peak temperatures were reached in the Early Jurassic. Some samples appear to record a younger thermal event at ∼140 m.y., a short lived event that apparently affected only the least retentive zircons.

Urbanization and Socioeconomic Metabolism in Taipei - Shu‐Li Huang; Chia‐Wen Chen (Journal of Industrial Ecology, 2009)
Summary The analysis of socioeconomic metabolism has largely been dominated by quantification of material flows on a mass basis. This neglects the energetic dimensions of the urban metabolism and makes analysis that integrates material and energy flows difficult. The present research applies Odum's emergy concept to integrate energy and material flows for the study of the socioeconomic metabolism of the Taipei area. We also take into consideration the urban sprawl in the Taipei area to study its relationship to the change of socioeconomic metabolism. We interpret SPOT satellite images from 1992 and 2002 to provide a deeper understanding of the whole urban system; results show that Taipei's urban areas increased in size during the past decades. Emergy‐based indicators show decreasing empower densities (total emergy use per area) of undeveloped and agricultural areas, whereas the empower density of urban areas has increased, which signals a convergence of resource flows toward urban areas. Such an increase of empower density is mainly due to fossil fuel use and translates into increased environmental loading and decreased sustainability. An analysis of the relationship between urbanization and socioeconomic metabolism indicates that changes in land use affect the characteristics of socioeconomic metabolism in Taipei. The effects of urban sprawl on Taipei's urban sustainability are also discussed.

Mineralogical and geochemical study of a newly discovered mafic granulite, northwest China: Implications for tectonic evolution of the Altay Orogenic Belt - Han‐Lin Chen; Zi‐Long Li; Shu‐Feng Yang; Chuan‐Wan Dong; Wen‐Jiao Xiao; Yoshiaki Tainosho (Island Arc, 2006)
A mafic granulite body was newly discovered in the Altay Orogenic Belt, northwest China. The rocks comprise a suite of coarse‐grained and fine‐grained granulites. Orthopyroxenes (hypersthenes) in the rocks have high X Mg and low Al 2 O 3 contents, whereas clinopyroxenes have low TiO 2 and Al 2 O 3 contents. Amphiboles and biotites have a high Mg/(Mg + Fe 2+ ) ratio and low contents of F and Cl. The peak metamorphic pressure–temperature (P–T) conditions are estimated as 750–780°C and 6–7 kbar, and retrograde P–T conditions are in the range of 590–620°C and 2.3–3.7 kbar, indicating significant decompression. Metamorphic reactions and P–T estimates define a clockwise P–T path. Geochemically, the rocks are high in Mg/(Mg + Fe) and Al 2 O 3 , depleted in U, Th, K and Rb, and characterized by light rare earth element enrichment and a weak positive Eu anomaly. The Altay mafic granulite shows depleted Nb, P and Ti contents in the mid‐oceanic ridge basalt normalized spider diagram. The geochemical characteristics suggest that the protolith of the Altay mafic granulite was calc‐alkaline basalt and andesite with an island‐arc affinity. The rock has a high 143 Nd/ 144 Nd ratio with ɛNd(0) > 0, indicating derivation from a mantle‐depleted source. In the present study, a two‐stage model for the evolution of the Altay mafic granulite is proposed: an early stage in which calc‐alkaline basalt and andesite with island‐arc affinity were subducted into a deeper level of the crust and subjected to granulite‐facies metamorphism generating the mafic granulite, followed by the later stage exhumation of the system into the upper crust by the late Paleozoic thrusting.
