Based on the results of geological characteristics,petrology, geochemistry and isotopic dating, the Altun Orogenic Zone can be divided into four tectonic units and is considered to have undergone five stages during its tectonic evolution.The four tectonics units are :(1) Abei metamorphic block, which consists of Archean metamorphic complex of granulite facies;.(2) Hongliugou—Lapeiquan tectonic melange belt, which is composed of ophiolite blocks(belt), OIB blocks, pelagic silicalite, shallow\|bathyal sedimentary rock blocks and high\|pressure metamorphi c rock blocks. (3) Milanhe—Jinyanshan island\|arc block, which consists of mid\|uplifting belt and the south and north active margins. The uplifting belt is composed of metasandstone, marble, overlying thick stromatolite (Jinyanshan Group of Jixian System). Metamorphic rocks of 450Ma occur in both south and north hactive margin. Post\|collision bimodal volcanic rocks and A\|type granite occur in the middle and the north side.(4) Apa—Mangya tectonic melange belt, which consists of ophiolite(including ultramafic rocks, gabbro, plagiogranite and basalt) and flysch and eclogite of late Ordovician.展开更多

Late Cretaceous (about 90Ma) accretion with the southern margin of the Karakoram Plate at the site of the Shyok Suture Zone turned Kohistan to become an Andean\|type margin. The Neotethys was completely subducted at the southern margin of Kohistan by Early Tertiary, leading to collision between Kohistan and continental crust of the Indian plate at the site of the Main mantle thrust.More than 80% of the Kohistan terrane comprises plutonic rocks of (1) ultramafic to gabbroic composition forming the basal crust of the intra\|oceanic stage of the island arc, and (2) tonalite\|granodiorite\|granite composition belong to the Kohistan Batholith occupying much of the intermediate to shallow crust of the terrane mostly intruded in the Andean\|type margin stage [2] . Both these stages of subduction\|related magmatism were associated with volcanic and sedimentary rocks formed in Late Cretaceous and Early Tertiary basins. This study addresses tectonic configuration of Early Tertiary Drosh basin exposed in NW parts of the Kohistan terrane, immediately to the south of the Shyok Suture Zone.展开更多

Qilian ocean originated from the rift of the late Proterozoic Rodinia continent(Pangea\|850), evolved through rift basin and became an archipelagic ocean in the Caledonian stage. The Lower Proterozoic strata in Qilian area are mid\|high\|rank metamorphic rocks that constitute the metamorphic basement of the area. The “Huangyuan Movement" (in South Qilian and Central Qilian) and "Alashan Movement" (in North Qilian) in the latest Late Proterozoic formed a regional unconformity. The middle Proterozoic in the area are mudstones and carbonate rocks with stromatolites and ooids. The Qingbaikou System of the upper Proterozoic in the North Qilian and Corridor region is also mudstone and carbonate rock with stromatolites. The Qingbaikou System in Central Qilian is sandstones and mudstones. There are alkaline and tholeiite in the Sinian System in North Qilian and Corridor. The contact between Qingbaikou System and Sinian System is a regional unconformity (Quanji Movement). Qilian ocean began to rift away in Caledonian tectonic stage on the Pre\|Sinian basement.展开更多

The depths of Moho from north to south are 50km in S.Tarim to 65km in the W. Kunlun Mts. A low velocity and low resistivity layer occurs at the depth of 15～30km, which may be the decollement in the upper crust. A “delamination Crack" might have been formed in the lower crust\|mantle lid, causing the intrusion of alkaline magma along the southern margin of the W. Kunlun Mts.

Until now we did not find any complete ophiolite suite except Kudi ophiolite. So we suggest that there was no “vast protero\|ocean", and a “limited oceanic basin" exists only during the late Proterozoic to Early Paleozoic, which might have been subducted in Silurian\|Devonian and formed the oldest suture in the north of the Tibet plateau.A suture zone consisting of H.

First, some kind of landform, such as stone pinnacles, rock well etc, kept the slippery rock surface. It was believed that they were resulted from the process in soil. Nearer the foot of rock the site was; more clear and integrated the form was. Second, the covered karst often associated with red weathering crust. Based on the character of the red weathering crust of the summit plane of Anduo Mountain, its forming environment was relatively humid and hot. Third, the best geomorphologic position, where the karst was bare, was not on the summit plane but on the slope.The baring degrees and later reworked characteristics of the covered karst made up of an integrated series. They could be divided into three kinds of districts according to their response to the Plateau uplift. (1) The western district, where the uplift was intensive, was mainly Tibet Plateau. For example, in Anduo Mountain, the covered karst was entirely denuded on the ground surface, and the rock surface was turned into mottled rock well because the frost weathering intensively reworked it. The red weathering crust was only kept in the bottom of rock, most of which was observed in the crack of limestone. The present karst process on the ground surface stopped. (2) The middle district, where the uplift degree was moderate, was mainly Yungui Plateau. The covered karst was partly denuded to form the stone pinnacles. Its part, which is baring, is changed to be aciculate and sharp\|pointed, and is active now. (3) The eastern district, where the uplift was weak, was mainly the northern part of Guangxi Province and the southern part of Hunan Province. The covered karst was entirely covered by soil and only observed in the section, which was excavated by human. The form of the covered karst generally had the typical character of the process below the soil.展开更多

Based on the geological and geochemical studies, it is suggested that there exist two tectonic belts in SE Yunnan, SW China called Ailao Shan zone and Shizong—Mile zone, which separate Yangtze Block, Cathysian Block and Indo\|China Block from each other. The evolutionary history and its geodynamics of these suture zones are correlated with the Paleo\|Tethyan Ocean. Both of the zones are keys to understanding whether the Paleo\|Tethyan Ocean extended from Western Yunnan area to east of the South China continent. The Ailao Shan belt consists of Red River fault, Ailao Shan fault, Shuanggou fault and Huashan—Yayi fault, which are the boundaries of the Ailao Shan basement metamorphic belt, ophiolitic melange belt and Island\|arc volcanic\|sediments belt, respectively.The ophiolitic melange belt is characterized by the existence of the ophiolite in Shuanggou area, which represents the relicts of the oceanic crust of the Ailao Shan Ocean. In addition, there exist volcanic rocks in west of the ophiolitic melange belt in Jingdong area. The geochemical characteristics of basalts in Jingdong are similar to that of the E\|MORB. Synthesized studies on geochemistry and tectonics suggest that the basalts in Jingdong area were formed in an extensional rift setting in Devonian.展开更多

Its southern boundary is the Bangongfu—Nujiang suture zone and its northern boundary is the Xijinwulan\|Jinshajiang suture zone.The basement of Qiangtang basin is composed f metamorphic rock of Proterozoic age, which can be divided into two parts. The competent lower part with isotope age of 2056～2310Ma experienced multi\|stage deformation and the soft upper part is dated 1111～1205Ma. Within the basin, it groups into Northern Qiangtang Depression, Central Rise and Southern Depressions and are complicated by a number of subdepressions and subuplifts.The strata of Middle Devonian\|Tertiary are overlain on the basement and composed of marine carbonate rocks, clastic rocks and terrestrial sandstone and conglomerate. Several sets of faults and folds have developed in the cover sequence and the deformation is very strong, characterized by orientation, zonation and equidistance in space and by diversity and disharmony in the profile. The major deformation occurred in Yanshan\|Himalayan period.展开更多

With NWW\|SEE trend, Kekexili basin extends along the north side of the Jinshajiang suture. Its sediments, Fenghuoshan group, formed in E 1—E 3, show a shape of wedge with big thickness in south and small thickness in north. There are four sedimentary facies; fan\|delta and alluvial facies that occur in south, lake and lake\|delta facies, which do in north, in this basin. The north\|dipping Jinshajiang normal faults on the south margin of the basin have controlled the developments of the basin. The S—N compression at the end of E3 strongly folded the basin strata and transformed Jinshajiang normal faults into thrusts. In N1, widespread denudation occurred in the whole plateau. During N 2—Q, Kekexili area uplifted along with the whole plateau, besides, the thrusts in the basin showed coherent activity. We propose a geodynamical model for explaining the basin development. In early E,India plate, due to its colliding Eurasia plate, stopped its ocean crust subduction northward, then the subducted ocean lithosphere breaking away made the south margin area, most possibly to the south of Jinshajiang suture, of Eurasia plate isostatically uplift, so the north\|dipping Jinshajiang suture acted as normal faults and controled the north basin development. In late E, the isostatic uplift finished, the basin also gradually terminated its development .At the end of E, Jinshajiang normal faults became thrusts and the basin strata were folded under the northward compression of India plate. In the N1, India plate started incontinental subduction, the lower crust and lower mantle lithosphere of Qinghai—Xizang area underwent more intensive compression and deformation than its upper crust, and the induced transversal expansion in the lower lithosphere uplifted the upper crust and decreased its horizontal stress, which conduced the upper crust undergo denudation. During N 2—Q, convective removal of the lower mantle lithosphere of Qinghai\|Xizang area led to rapid uplift of this area.展开更多

The plate junction represents an important tectonic belt ,which is a composed of a gold mineralization belt in the east Tethyan tectonic domain.(1) Garze—Litang plate junction may be divided into the following structural units:ductile shear zone and fracture system, Paleozoic nappes ,ophiolite \|tectonic blocks,flysch formation in passive continental margin (Triassic Xikang group ),forearc sedimentary formation in active margin (Triassic Yidun group),and such boundary geological bodies as granitoids ,faulted basins and Tertiary nappes.展开更多

Cenozoic volcanism in North Tibet is of obviously time circles. In the space, from south to north, the chemical composition of volcanics changed from Na\|rich alkalic basaltic series formed 44Ma. ago into high\|K calcalkali series formed in about 40～31Ma.in Qiangtang area, into minor amount of leucite basalt and phonolite series of 26Ma., further into shoshonite series aged at 19～7Ma. in Cocoxili basin, until Quaternary shoshonite series in Karakunlun and Qilian Mt.\|Yumen region(Xiaoguo Chi etc.1999).Isotopes of Sr,Nd,Pb and trace elements in volcanic rocks provide wide range of information for the evolution of lithosphere in North Tibet after 45Ma. Present research shows that Na\|rich alkalic basalt series formed 44Ma. ago has the features of a primitive mantle in Sr,Nd,Pb isotopes. Along with the evolutionary tendency to high\|K calcalkali series and phonolite series, isotopes of Sr,Nd,Pb evolve towards EM2\|rich mantle end. The North Tibet is a compound continental mass combined from several terrains of different geological periods and the lithosphere mantle sees a complicated evolutionary history. Hence, the mixing of different rocks in ancient subduction zones and long history of metasomatism in the upper mantle offered excellent and favorable conditions for the formation of EM2 mantle end and for potassic enrichment. Isotopic evolutionary features indicate that the early magma came from the asthenosphere while later magmas were derived from partial remelting of lithosphere mantle.展开更多

However, there is no widely accepted model for this area. One of the reasons is that some basic issues for the tectonic reconstruction have not been well settled, they are: (1) Is the Kunlun Mountains an ancient accretion prism, or a mini continent with old basement?(2) What is the age of the Kudi ophiolite, early Paleozoic or late Paleozoic?(3) When did the South Kunlun Block accrete to the Tarim Block?(4) Do the fifth and the forth sutures represent different oceans, or they are just the chronologically different relics of the same ocean?(5) Did the Kunlun Mountains experience continuous subduction since Neoproterozoic?(6) When did the Paleo\|Tethys closed in the West Kunlun range?展开更多

It should depend on the detail geological investigations to establish the deformational accommodate mode, and the uplift history, to elucidate the deep structure and the crust\|mantle interaction of the EHS. The Namjabarwa metamorphic complex indented into the Gangdise arc along the sinistral Pai shear fault and the dextral Aniqiao shear fault on the both sides of the Great Canyon of Yalung Zangbo river since the collision of the NE corner of the Indian plate and the Eurasian Plate at 60～70Ma [1] . The distance between Yarlung Zangbo suture and Bangong—Nujiang suture is shortened more 120km in the EHS area than that of the Lhasa block.展开更多

Pakistan.A study of the Fission track thermochronology indicates that the W.Kunlun Mts. has been undergone a pulsatory uplift since 20～18Ma,and a rapid uplift after 3Ma.A model of collision between the Indo\|Pakistan subcontinent\|N.Tibet and the Eurasian blocks of Tarim has been illustrated.
文摘The Covered Karst, which formed in subsoil environment and distributed in the Tibet Plateau and its eastern district, denuded on the ground surface in different degrees (forming stone pinnacles), but they had the good consistency in their characteristics. First, some kind of landform, such as stone pinnacles, rock well etc, kept the slippery rock surface. It was believed that they were resulted from the process in soil. Nearer the foot of rock the site was; more clear and integrated the form was. Second, the covered karst often associated with red weathering crust. Based on the character of the red weathering crust of the summit plane of Anduo Mountain, its forming environment was relatively humid and hot. Third, the best geomorphologic position, where the karst was bare, was not on the summit plane but on the slope.The baring degrees and later reworked characteristics of the covered karst made up of an integrated series. They could be divided into three kinds of districts according to their response to the Plateau uplift. (1) The western district, where the uplift was intensive, was mainly Tibet Plateau. For example, in Anduo Mountain, the covered karst was entirely denuded on the ground surface, and the rock surface was turned into mottled rock well because the frost weathering intensively reworked it. The red weathering crust was only kept in the bottom of rock, most of which was observed in the crack of limestone. The present karst process on the ground surface stopped. (2) The middle district, where the uplift degree was moderate, was mainly Yungui Plateau. The covered karst was partly denuded to form the stone pinnacles. Its part, which is baring, is changed to be aciculate and sharp\|pointed, and is active now. (3) The eastern district, where the uplift was weak, was mainly the northern part of Guangxi Province and the southern part of Hunan Province. The covered karst was entirely covered by soil and only observed in the section, which was excavated by human. The form of the covered karst generally had the typical character of the process below the soil.
文摘There has been a long\|term debate about the Paleo\|Tethyan Ocean in South China continent. Based on the geological and geochemical studies, it is suggested that there exist two tectonic belts in SE Yunnan, SW China called Ailao Shan zone and Shizong—Mile zone, which separate Yangtze Block, Cathysian Block and Indo\|China Block from each other. The evolutionary history and its geodynamics of these suture zones are correlated with the Paleo\|Tethyan Ocean. Both of the zones are keys to understanding whether the Paleo\|Tethyan Ocean extended from Western Yunnan area to east of the South China continent. The Ailao Shan belt consists of Red River fault, Ailao Shan fault, Shuanggou fault and Huashan—Yayi fault, which are the boundaries of the Ailao Shan basement metamorphic belt, ophiolitic melange belt and Island\|arc volcanic\|sediments belt, respectively.The ophiolitic melange belt is characterized by the existence of the ophiolite in Shuanggou area, which represents the relicts of the oceanic crust of the Ailao Shan Ocean. In addition, there exist volcanic rocks in west of the ophiolitic melange belt in Jingdong area. The geochemical characteristics of basalts in Jingdong are similar to that of the E\|MORB. Synthesized studies on geochemistry and tectonics suggest that the basalts in Jingdong area were formed in an extensional rift setting in Devonian.
文摘The Qiangtang basin is located in the north of Qinghai—Tibet plateau and sandwiched by Nianqingtangula continental block and Kekexili\|Bayuankal continental block. Its southern boundary is the Bangongfu—Nujiang suture zone and its northern boundary is the Xijinwulan\|Jinshajiang suture zone.The basement of Qiangtang basin is composed f metamorphic rock of Proterozoic age, which can be divided into two parts. The competent lower part with isotope age of 2056～2310Ma experienced multi\|stage deformation and the soft upper part is dated 1111～1205Ma. Within the basin, it groups into Northern Qiangtang Depression, Central Rise and Southern Depressions and are complicated by a number of subdepressions and subuplifts.The strata of Middle Devonian\|Tertiary are overlain on the basement and composed of marine carbonate rocks, clastic rocks and terrestrial sandstone and conglomerate. Several sets of faults and folds have developed in the cover sequence and the deformation is very strong, characterized by orientation, zonation and equidistance in space and by diversity and disharmony in the profile. The major deformation occurred in Yanshan\|Himalayan period.
文摘Kekexili basin, located in Northern Qinghai—Xizang plateau, has an area of over 4000km\+2 and is the largest Paleogene land facies basin in the plateau. With NWW\|SEE trend, Kekexili basin extends along the north side of the Jinshajiang suture. Its sediments, Fenghuoshan group, formed in E 1—E 3, show a shape of wedge with big thickness in south and small thickness in north. There are four sedimentary facies; fan\|delta and alluvial facies that occur in south, lake and lake\|delta facies, which do in north, in this basin. The north\|dipping Jinshajiang normal faults on the south margin of the basin have controlled the developments of the basin. The S—N compression at the end of E3 strongly folded the basin strata and transformed Jinshajiang normal faults into thrusts. In N1, widespread denudation occurred in the whole plateau. During N 2—Q, Kekexili area uplifted along with the whole plateau, besides, the thrusts in the basin showed coherent activity. We propose a geodynamical model for explaining the basin development. In early E,India plate, due to its colliding Eurasia plate, stopped its ocean crust subduction northward, then the subducted ocean lithosphere breaking away made the south margin area, most possibly to the south of Jinshajiang suture, of Eurasia plate isostatically uplift, so the north\|dipping Jinshajiang suture acted as normal faults and controled the north basin development. In late E, the isostatic uplift finished, the basin also gradually terminated its development .At the end of E, Jinshajiang normal faults became thrusts and the basin strata were folded under the northward compression of India plate. In the N1, India plate started incontinental subduction, the lower crust and lower mantle lithosphere of Qinghai—Xizang area underwent more intensive compression and deformation than its upper crust, and the induced transversal expansion in the lower lithosphere uplifted the upper crust and decreased its horizontal stress, which conduced the upper crust undergo denudation. During N 2—Q, convective removal of the lower mantle lithosphere of Qinghai\|Xizang area led to rapid uplift of this area.
文摘Garez—Litang plate junction lies in the eastern margin of the Nujiang—Lancangjiang—Jinshajiang area, NW\|trendingly and antisigmoidally extending for more than 800km from Zhidoi ,Qinghai through Garze and Litang to Muli ,Sichuan ,with a width of 5～35km .The junction is located in the arcuate turning part of the Alpine—Himalayan—Indosinian Tethyan tectonic domain ,which lies in the structural transition position between the Yangtze plate and the Yidun area . The plate junction represents an important tectonic belt ,which is a composed of a gold mineralization belt in the east Tethyan tectonic domain.(1) Garze—Litang plate junction may be divided into the following structural units:ductile shear zone and fracture system, Paleozoic nappes ,ophiolite \|tectonic blocks,flysch formation in passive continental margin (Triassic Xikang group ),forearc sedimentary formation in active margin (Triassic Yidun group),and such boundary geological bodies as granitoids ,faulted basins and Tertiary nappes.
文摘Volcanism is the direct indication of the upper mantle thermodynamic activities, and it is an efficient path to study the lithosphere tectonic evolution. Cenozoic volcanism in North Tibet is of obviously time circles. In the space, from south to north, the chemical composition of volcanics changed from Na\|rich alkalic basaltic series formed 44Ma. ago into high\|K calcalkali series formed in about 40～31Ma.in Qiangtang area, into minor amount of leucite basalt and phonolite series of 26Ma., further into shoshonite series aged at 19～7Ma. in Cocoxili basin, until Quaternary shoshonite series in Karakunlun and Qilian Mt.\|Yumen region(Xiaoguo Chi etc.1999).Isotopes of Sr,Nd,Pb and trace elements in volcanic rocks provide wide range of information for the evolution of lithosphere in North Tibet after 45Ma. Present research shows that Na\|rich alkalic basalt series formed 44Ma. ago has the features of a primitive mantle in Sr,Nd,Pb isotopes. Along with the evolutionary tendency to high\|K calcalkali series and phonolite series, isotopes of Sr,Nd,Pb evolve towards EM2\|rich mantle end. The North Tibet is a compound continental mass combined from several terrains of different geological periods and the lithosphere mantle sees a complicated evolutionary history. Hence, the mixing of different rocks in ancient subduction zones and long history of metasomatism in the upper mantle offered excellent and favorable conditions for the formation of EM2 mantle end and for potassic enrichment. Isotopic evolutionary features indicate that the early magma came from the asthenosphere while later magmas were derived from partial remelting of lithosphere mantle.
文摘The Kunlun Mountains is situated in the north margin of the Tibetan plateau and is one of crucial areas for unraveling the tectonic evolutionary history of the plateau and Eurasia. However, there is no widely accepted model for this area. One of the reasons is that some basic issues for the tectonic reconstruction have not been well settled, they are: (1) Is the Kunlun Mountains an ancient accretion prism, or a mini continent with old basement?(2) What is the age of the Kudi ophiolite, early Paleozoic or late Paleozoic?(3) When did the South Kunlun Block accrete to the Tarim Block?(4) Do the fifth and the forth sutures represent different oceans, or they are just the chronologically different relics of the same ocean?(5) Did the Kunlun Mountains experience continuous subduction since Neoproterozoic?(6) When did the Paleo\|Tethys closed in the West Kunlun range?

文摘The Eastern Himalayan Syntaxis (EHS) is one of the strongest deformation area along the Himalayan belt resulted from the collision between Indian plate and the Eurasian plate since 50～60Ma, and has sensitivity tracked and preserved the whole collisional processes. It should depend on the detail geological investigations to establish the deformational accommodate mode, and the uplift history, to elucidate the deep structure and the crust\|mantle interaction of the EHS. The Namjabarwa metamorphic complex indented into the Gangdise arc along the sinistral Pai shear fault and the dextral Aniqiao shear fault on the both sides of the Great Canyon of Yalung Zangbo river since the collision of the NE corner of the Indian plate and the Eurasian Plate at 60～70Ma [1] . The distance between Yarlung Zangbo suture and Bangong—Nujiang suture is shortened more 120km in the EHS area than that of the Lhasa block.
文摘Binary composites(ZIF-67/rGO)were synthesized by one-step precipitation method using cobalt nitrate hexahydrate as metal source,2-methylimidazole as organic ligand,and reduced graphene oxide(rGO)as carbon carrier.Then Ru3+was introduced for ion exchange,and the porous Ru-doped Co_(3)O_(4)/rGO(Ru-Co_(3)O_(4)/rGO)composite electrocatalyst was prepared by annealing.The phase structure,morphology,and valence state of the catalyst were analyzed by X-ray powder diffraction(XRD),scanning electron microscope(SEM),transmission electron microscopy(TEM),and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy(XPS).In 1 mol·L^(-1)KOH,the oxygen evolution reaction(OER)performance of the catalyst was measured by linear sweep voltammetry,cyclic voltammetry,and chronoamperometry.The results show that the combination of Ru doping and rGO provides a fast channel for collaborative electron transfer.At the same time,rGO as a carbon carrier can improve the electrical conductivity of Ru-Co_(3)O_(4)particles,and the uniformly dispersed nanoparticles enable the reactants to diffuse freely on the catalyst.The results showed that the electrochemical performance of Ru-Co_(3)O_(4)/rGO was much better than that of Co_(3)O_(4)/rGO,and the overpotential of Ru-Co_(3)O_(4)/rGO was 363.5 mV at the current density of 50 mA·cm^(-2).

文摘The design of cost-effective and efficient metal-free carbon-based catalysts for the hydrogen evolution reaction(HER)is of great significance for increasing the production of clean hydrogen by the electrolysis of alkaline water.Precise control of the electronic structure by heteroatom doping has proven to be efficient for increasing catalytic activity.Nevertheless,both the structural characteristics and the underlying mechanism are not well understood,especially for doping with two different atoms,thus limiting the use of these catalysts.We report the production of phosphorus and nitrogen co-doped hollow carbon nanospheres(HCNs)by the copolymerization of pyrrole and aniline at a Triton X-100 micelle-interface,followed by doping with phytic acid and carbonization.The unique pore structure and defect-rich framework of the HCNs expose numerous active sites.Crucially,the combined effect of graphitic nitrogen and phosphorus-carbon bonds modulate the local electronic structure of adjacent C atoms and facilitates electron transfer.As a res-ult,the HCN carbonized at 1100°C exhibited superior HER activity and an outstanding stability(70 h at a current density of 10 mA cm^(−2))in alkaline water,because of the large number of graphitic nitrogen and phosphorus-carbon bonds.
文摘Sulfur-doped iron-cobalt tannate nanorods(S-FeCoTA)derived from metal-organic frameworks(MOFs)as electrocatalysts were synthesized via a one-step hydrothermal method.The optimized S-FeCoTA was interlaced by loose nanorods,which had many voids.The S-FeCoTA catalysts exhibited excellent electrochemical oxygen evolution reaction(OER)performance with a low overpotential of 273 mV at 10 mA·cm^(-2)and a small Tafel slope of 36 mV·dec^(-1)in 1 mol·L^(-1)KOH.The potential remained at 1.48 V(vs RHE)at 10 mA·cm^(-2)under continuous testing for 15 h,implying that S-FeCoTA had good stability.The Faraday efficiency of S-FeCoTA was 94%.The outstanding OER activity of S-FeCoTA is attributed to the synergistic effects among S,Fe,and Co,thus promoting electron transfer,reducing the reaction kinetic barrier,and enhancing the OER performance.
文摘Several tritylodontid taxa have been reported from the Upper Jurassic of the Wucaiwan area in the Junggar Basin of Xinjiang,northwestern China,including Yuanotherium minor.The original study described the partially preserved postcanine teeth in the middle of the left upper maxilla.After detailed re-examination of the specimen and by CT scanning,3D reconstruction,and scanning electron microscopy observations,we provided a more detailed description of the osteology,neurosensory,and tooth wear pattern for all the bones preserved in this specimen and clarified some characters.Based on new information about the cusp wear pattern,the chewing movement pattern of the dentition and detailed cusp morphology,we discussed the cuspal homology of upper cheek teeth of tritylodontids and postulate a standardized method for cusp identification.We hypothesize that the unique maxilla characteristics furnish the evidence for transitional stages about the evolution of the upper jaw-palate structure in tritylodontids.
