Testing the standardized growth curve (SGC) to OSL dating coastal sediments from the south Bohai Sea, China

It has been suggested that the standardized growth curve (SGC) method can be used to accurately determinate equivalent dose (D_e) and reduce measurement time. However, different opinions regarding the applicability of the SGC method exist. In this paper, we evaluated quartz OSL SGCs of marine and coastal sediments of different grain sizes and different cores in the south Bohai Sea in China, and tested their applicability to the determination of D_e values. Our results suggested as follows: (1) The SGC method is applicable to both multiple- and single-aliquot regenerative-dose (MAR and SAR) protocols of OSL dating and efficiently provides reliable estimates of D_e. (2) Finesand quartz of different palaeodoses showed highly similar dose-response curves and an SGC was developed, but old samples using the SGC method have large uncertainties. (3) For coarse-silt quartz, two different types of dose-response curves were recorded: low-dose (≤60Gy) and high-dose (≥100Gy). The growth curves of low-dose quartz were similar to each other, facilitating the use of SGC in D_e estimations, but errors tended to be larger than those obtained in the SAR method. For high-dose (100–300Gy) quartz, the SGC was also found to be reliable, but there was large uncertainty in D_e (>300Gy) estimation. We suggest that SGC could be employed for the dating of marine and coastal sediments dating using either MAR or SAR OSL protocol and either fine-silt, coarse-silt or fine-sand quartz.     

20世纪30年代全国制造工厂的区域布局——兼论后发大国工业化的空间及规模质量提升进程

1933年全国共有制造工厂4372家,分布在27个省区的391个县市,总体上呈现东部沿海制造工厂“连片发展”、中西部省区接受东部产业转移而形成的制造工厂“散点分布”的态势。这与东部和中西部的资源禀赋、交通条件、进入国际国内市场的深度和广度不同密切相关。与欧洲工业化先行国不同,20世纪前30年中国东部制造业的“连片发展”和中西部制造业的“散点分布”,不仅有赖于国际市场与国际贸易的引领和促进,更离不开国内超大市场的有力支撑,特别是后者,在一定程度上成为国内制造业应对20世纪30年代全球经济危机的“避风港”。不过,缺乏统一强大的国家政权推动的中国工业化进程,仍然面临国内超大市场启动乏力、东中西部空间隔阂、区域间的产业竞争激烈、农矿资源与资金人才市场配置不当等问题。     

浙江省博物馆藏遂安古文书

一.浙江民间文书的搜集与整理在历史研究中,民间文书作为个案资料的典型代表已经越来越受到学者重视。尤其是各地契约文书的大量发现,使契约学渐成显学。其中尤为引人注意的是徽州及闽台地区古文书研究,已形成完整体系。而近年来学者们也开始注意到浙江地区民间文书的搜集和整理研究。     

洗净铅华 青莹之韵——南京市博物馆藏六朝青瓷

六朝,这是中国历史上一个大动荡的时期,政权的交替分裂在南方愈演愈烈,但瓷器生产却在偏安江左的小国中渐渐发展起来,留下了著名的六朝青瓷。由南京市博物馆与杭州南宋官窑博物馆共同策划的“青莹之韵——南京地区出土六朝青瓷展”于2013年5月起在杭州南宋官窑博物馆开展。     

A new Late Silurian plant with complex branching from Xinjiang,China

Wang Yi, Fu Qiang, Xu Honghe, & Hao Shougang, June, 2007. A new Late Silurian plant with complex branching from Xinjiang, China. Alcheringa 31, 111-120. ISSN 0311-5518.

A new fossil plant is described from the middle part of the Wutubulake Formation (late Pridoli) of Xinjiang, China. This plant demonstrates at least two orders of branching. The first-order axis has pseudomonopodial branching with alternately attached second-order axes. Fertile units are alternately inserted along the second-order axis, and consist of a branching system and two sporangia at each tip. Sporangia are narrowly obovate with rounded apex and tapering base. This plant is characterized by more complex branching than other Silurian and Early Devonian plants, and is named Wutubulaka multidichotoma gen. et sp. nov., and placed under open higher-order nomenclature.     

Bioarchaeological Investigation of Possible Gunshot Wounds in 18th Century Human Skeletons from Korea

Notwithstanding the relative abundance of bioarchaeological evidence of pre‐20th century gunshot wounds discovered at European and American archaeological sites, similar findings in East Asian countries have been very rare. In this study, we report evidence of possible gunshot wounds sustained by two individuals buried in Joseon tombs of Korea. The shapes of the trauma seemed to indicate low‐velocity projectiles, most likely musket balls. To our knowledge, this is the first bioarchaeological report specifically concerning possible gunshot‐wound evidence in East Asian skeletons recovered from archaeological fields.

上林湖越窑秘色瓷工艺技术研究

浙江上林湖出土了一批秘色瓷,与法门寺地宫出土的秘色瓷在外观、造型、装烧方式上相似。通过对窑址的实地调查与样本的科技检测分析(包括热释光测年、化学成分检测、显微结构分析、吸水率测试)发现,这批秘色瓷与一般品质的越窑青瓷在胎釉化学成分与显微结构上具有较高的一致性,因此从化学成分和显微结构角度并不能将秘色瓷从越窑青瓷中区分开来。此外,在工艺技术上,秘色瓷的特点是坯泥处理细致,修坯严格,施釉均匀,并使用瓷质匣钵密封装烧。所以,秘色瓷是越窑青瓷中工艺技术较好的一部分精品瓷。     

多目的地ZTCM在旅游价值评估中的应用——以嘉峪关市为例

在旅行费用法(TCM)理论与应用的研究基础上,考虑游客出游时对于多个旅游目的地的选择以及旅行时间机会成本等问题,提出了多目的地ZTCM的基本思路与技术路线以及评估流程,并以嘉峪关市为例,对其国内旅游客源地划分为39个出游小区选定11个旅游目的地出游组合,利用门票价格及居民消费水平等指标计算各出游组合中嘉峪关市所占的旅游价值比例,对其进行合理的游憩价值评估。结果显示嘉峪关市2006年的旅游价值为7.384762亿元,其中国内旅游价值为6.227939亿元,海外旅游价值为1.156823亿元,与当年旅游收入4.62673亿元进行对比,可以发现嘉峪关市发展旅游的潜力比较大。此外,还对多目的地ZTCM的可行性以及评估结果进行了讨论分析。
