High-resolution crustal structure of the Yinchuan basin revealed by deep seismic reflection profiling:implications for deep processes of basin

The Yinchuan basin, located on the western margin of the Ordos block, has the characteristics of an active continental rift. A NW-striking deep seismic reflection profile across the center of Yinchuan basin precisely revealed the fine structure of the crust. The images showed that the crust in the Yinchuan basin was characterized by vertical stratifications along a detachment located at a two-way travel time（TWT） of 8.0 s.The most outstanding feature of this seismic profile was the almost flat Mohorovicˇic′ discontinuity（Moho） and a high-reflection zone in the lower crust. This sub-horizontal Moho conflicts with the general assumption of an uplifted Moho under sedimentary basins and continental rifts, and may indicate the action of different processes at depth during the evolution of sedimentary basins or rifts.We present a possible interpretation of these deep processes and the sub-horizontal Moho. The high-reflection zone, which consists of sheets of high-density, mantlederived materials, may have compensated for crustal thinning in the Yinchuan basin, leading to the formation of a sub-horizontal Moho. These high-density materials may have been emplaced by underplating with mantlesourced magma.

MESOZOIC-CENOZOIC VOLCANISM AND THE SIGNIFICANCE OF DEEP PROCESSES IN THE BOHAI REGION

Based on data from petrochemistry, trace element geochemistry and isotopic compositions of Mesozoic-Cenozoic volcanic rocks in three basins in the Bohai region, some conclusions can be drawn. In the region. there are three major voIcanic eruption stages with corresponding volcanic rocks in the Mesozoic-Cenozoic. i. e., early Mesozoic dacite (228. 8~ 226. 9 Ma). late Mesozoic basaltic-trachy-andesite, lamprophyre and rhyolite (136. 0~90. 9 Ma). and Cenozoic basa1t (61.0~29. 7 Ma). All the volcanics have undergone different fractional crystallization. Trace elements and isotopic compositions characteristics of the Cenozoic volcanics suggest that they are derived from the asthenosphere, and those of the Mesozoic volcanics show that they are derived from the enriched lithosphere. A model is proposed indicating that the lithosphere-asthenosphere boundary was uplifted, then fell back in the Mesozoic-Cenozoic with the thinning of lithosphere.

Magmatism, Deep Processes and Gold Deposits in Eastern Hebei, China

The eastern Hebei Province of China is one of the major concentrating areas of gold mineralization in eastern China, which is an important part of the circum Pacific magmatic tectonic metallogenic belt. There are three types of gold deposits in terms of the characteristics of host rocks. Jinchangyu type gold deposit is situated in the Archean metamorphic basement. Yuerya type gold deposit occurs within the Yanshanian granite. Lengkou (or Wanzhuang ) type gold deposit is located within the covering strata of the Mesoproterozoic dolomitite. These 3 types of gold deposits are very similar in many respects. These deposits formed at Mesozoic and their spatial distribution is closely related to Yanshanian granite. The mineralization characteristics of these gold deposits are very similar. The characteristics of sulfur isotopic and lead isotopic compositions show that the gold deposits in this area are derived from the mantle and deep crust, and are related to Mesozoic magmatism. The gold deposits in this area are believed to be the products of crust mantle exchange and resulted from multistage gold mineralization. Finally a mineralization model of gold deposit in eastern Hebei of China is proposed.

Deep Tectonic Processes and Superaccumulation of Metals Related to Granitoids in the Nanling MetaUogenic Province,China

The Nanling region is an important nonferrous and rare metal metallogenic province in South China, in which most of the deposits are related to granitoids in genesis. It covers southern Hunan, southern Jiangxi, Guangxi, Guangdong and Fujian provinces, with a total area of about 550,000 km2. This metallogenic province is well known in the world for its rich tungsten and tin resources. In the past 40-odd years, a vast amount of mineral exploration activities and studies of the geology of mineral deposits have been carried out and great achievements obtained in the province. This paper is focused on a discussion about the deep tectonic processes in the orogenic belt during the Mesozoic and their contribution to the superaccumulation of metals. Tectonically, this metallogenic province is composed of three units: (1) the marginal continental orogenic belt in the Southeastern Coast fold system in the Yanshanian; (2) the intercontinental orogenic belt in the collision suture belt between the Yangtze and Cathay-sian plates mainly in the Caledonian; and (3) the intracontinental orogenic belt induced by subduction of the ocean crust and delimination of the mantle lithosphere in the Yanshanian. It is suggested that superaccumulation of metals in this metallogenic province was caused by the existence of mantle rooted tectonics at the depth based on comprehensive studies of geophysical information of seismic, geothermal and magnetotelluric surveys in Nanling and its adjacent areas. The Xihuashan wolframite quartz vein deposit, the Shizhuyuan W, Sn, Mo, Bi greisen-skarn deposit and the Dachang tin-polymetallic deposit are three typical examples of the deep tectonic processes. However, this kind of deep tectonic processes only act as the 'engine' of the superaccumulation of metals, which means that they should have to correspond with the super-crust ore-controlling pattern of 'lines-rows-clusters' (L-R-C). This recog-nization is expected to play an important role in assessment of mineral resources in this province.

Geochemical Characteristics of Volcanic Rocks from ODP Site 794,Yamato Basin:Implications for Deep Mantle Processes of the Japan Sea

Deep mantle processes and the dynamic mechanism of magmatism in the Japan Sea Basin are important processes that have not been studied in detail. In this paper, systematic evaluation of basalt samples from the ocean drilling program Site 794 in the Japan Sea was performed, which included petrography, whole-rock major- and trace-element analysis, Sr-Nd-Pb isotopic composition, and electron microprobe analysis of plagioclase and clinopyroxene. These basalts belong to the tholeiitic series with porphyritic texture and massive Ca-rich plagioclase, clinopyroxene, and minor olivine phenocrysts. The basalts are characterized as flat rare earth elements and high-field-strength elements with remarkably low ratios of （La/Yb）N （0.75-2.51）, significant positive anomalies of Ba, Sr, and Rb and no Eu anomaly （dEn = 0.99-1.36）. The samples showed relatively high 87Sr/86Sr （0.70425- 0.70522）, 207pb/204pb （15.511-15.610）, and 208pb/204pb （38.064-38.557） values and a low 143Nd/144Nd ratio （0.51271-0.51295）. The basalts from Site 794 can be divided into upper, middle, and lower volcanic rocks （UVR, MVR, and LVR） on the basis of their stratigraphic level. The MVR was geochemically derived from the depleted mantle, whereas the UVR and LVR originated from a nondepleted and relatively enriched mantle source with contributions from subducted Pacific plate fluid and sediments. Use of geothermobarometers indicates that the crystallization pressure for the UVR and LVR （6.25-11.19 kbar） was significantly higher than that of the MVR （3.48-5.84 kbar）. The UVR and LVR may have been derived from the low-degree （5%-10%） partial melting of spinel lherzolite, while the MVR originated from a shallower mantle source with a high degree （10%-20%） of partial melting. In addition, the geochemical characteristics of the samples are consistent with a younger age （13-17 Ma） and the depleted composition of the MVR and an older age （17-23 Ma） and slightly enriched composition of the UVR and LVR. Therefore, temporal changes in the mantle source from old and enriched to young and depleted and subsequently to old and nondepleted may have been associated with progressive lithospheric extension and thinning, as well as at least two episodes of diverse asthenospheric upwelling and pull-apart tectonic motion in the Yamato Basin.

B^(2)C^(3)NetF^(2):Breast cancer classification using an end‐to‐end deep learning feature fusion and satin bowerbird optimization controlled Newton Raphson feature selection

Currently,the improvement in AI is mainly related to deep learning techniques that are employed for the classification,identification,and quantification of patterns in clinical images.The deep learning models show more remarkable performance than the traditional methods for medical image processing tasks,such as skin cancer,colorectal cancer,brain tumour,cardiac disease,Breast cancer(BrC),and a few more.The manual diagnosis of medical issues always requires an expert and is also expensive.Therefore,developing some computer diagnosis techniques based on deep learning is essential.Breast cancer is the most frequently diagnosed cancer in females with a rapidly growing percentage.It is estimated that patients with BrC will rise to 70%in the next 20 years.If diagnosed at a later stage,the survival rate of patients with BrC is shallow.Hence,early detection is essential,increasing the survival rate to 50%.A new framework for BrC classification is presented that utilises deep learning and feature optimization.The significant steps of the presented framework include(i)hybrid contrast enhancement of acquired images,(ii)data augmentation to facilitate better learning of the Convolutional Neural Network(CNN)model,(iii)a pre‐trained ResNet‐101 model is utilised and modified according to selected dataset classes,(iv)deep transfer learning based model training for feature extraction,(v)the fusion of features using the proposed highly corrected function‐controlled canonical correlation analysis approach,and(vi)optimal feature selection using the modified Satin Bowerbird Optimization controlled Newton Raphson algorithm that finally classified using 10 machine learning classifiers.The experiments of the proposed framework have been carried out using the most critical and publicly available dataset,such as CBISDDSM,and obtained the best accuracy of 94.5%along with improved computation time.The comparison depicts that the presented method surpasses the current state‐ofthe‐art approaches.

Study on Eogene Basalts: Implication of the Deep Process over the Bohaiwan Basin Evolution

The present paper describes the characteristics of Cenozoic basalt in the Bohaiwan basin and its implication of the control of deep process over the basin evolution. The large scale Eogene basalts lying on the basement of the Bohaiwan basin belong to alkaline series and subalkaline series. The basalt magma originates at a depth of 48-76 km and a temperature of 1 300-1 400 ℃ with the mantle partial melting degree of 8%-14%. In Eogene period, the rising of the top of asthenosphere from 100-140 km to 50-70 km led to the strong extension and thinning of the overlying lithosphere, which was stretched at an average rate of 0.41 cm/a and the β value from 1.9 to 2.3. At the same time, it triggered the great scale rifting in the earth crust, forming large rift basins.

Some important scientific problems in current lithospheric physics research in China

China has achieved much during recent years in the area of lithospheric physics research and promoted the development of the geosciences （Teng, 2004）. However, in the 21^st century, national needs and policy challenges the science of lithospheric physics. I suggest a general analysis, research, and development direction for lithospheric physics and point out clearly the content, core problems, and key scientific problems in this field. The realization of the earth and the discovery of the basic mechanisms of mountains, basins, minerals, and natural disasters depend basically on high-resolution observations of geophysics, the delineation of the fine structure of crust and mantle （2D and 3D） inside the lithosphere, substance and energy exchanges in the deep earth, the process of deep physical, mechanical, and chemical actions, and deep dynamical response. Therefore, geophysics should be the pioneer in the geosciences field in the first half of the 21^st century. I end with an analysis and discussion of some problems and difficulties in the research of lithospheric physics.

ABNORMAL GEOMAGNETIC FIELD RESPONSE AT INTRAPLATE TECTONIC BOUNDARY IN CONTINENT AND CONTINENTAL MARGIN IN SOUTHEASTERN CHINA

We used matched filter, spectrum analysis, and continuation methods of potential field for data processing and obtained the geomagnetic field distribution about the continent and continental margin in southeast China. On the basis of grid data, inversion was conducted and magnetic field distribution and magnetic structure on bedding of different depths were obtained. The new results show that: 1. The magnetic field characteristics are largely different in horizontal and vertical directions and they can be divided into zones according to the continental blocks of Yangtze, Cathaysia, Kangdian (Sichuan-Yunnan) and Qinling-Dabie. 2. The Tanlu fault extends southward along the Ganjiang fault and the Wuchuan-Sihui fault after it crossed over the Yangtze River and was offset locally in the east-west direction. The Tanlu fault finally slips into the South China Sea at Hainan Island. 3. The boundary between Yangtze and Cathaysia blocks starts from Hangzhou Bay in the east, extends along Jiangshao fault and passes through Nanchang, Changsha, and Guilin, and finally enters the sea at Qinzhou, Guangxi. 4. The distribution of buried structure zone is located at 24.5°-26° N.

DSC based Dual-Resunet for radio frequency interference identification

Radio frequency interference(RFI)will pollute the weak astronomical signals received by radio telescopes,which in return will seriously affect the time-domain astronomical observation and research.In this paper,we use a deep learning method to identify RFI in frequency spectrum data,and propose a neural network based on Unet that combines the principles of depthwise separable convolution and residual,named DSC Based Dual-Resunet.Compared with the existing Unet network,DSC Based Dual-Resunet performs better in terms of accuracy,F1 score,and MIoU,and is also better in terms of computation cost where the model size and parameter amount are 12.5%of Unet and the amount of computation is 38%of Unet.The experimental results show that the proposed network is a high-performance and lightweight network,and it is hopeful to be applied to RFI identification of radio telescopes on a large scale.
