Well over one hundred separate graben formed in association with ocean opening can be recognized around the shores of the Atlantic Ocean. The graben are linked forming an elaborate network of triple-rift systems. Some rifts developed to form ocean but many failed. The stratigraphie and structural history of these rift structures is varied and helps to illuminate the processes that operate at continental rupture. Rifting has been commonly accompanied by basaltic vulcanism and rapid accumulation of several kilometers of sediment. Horsts within the graben strongly influence early sediment distribution. Generally, rift faulting ceases about the time of onset of normal marine sedimentation but there are a few exceptions and some graben formed at ocean opening have influenced sediment distribution more than 100 m.y. later. Although tensional structures predominate strike-slip and compressional structures have developed locally in the graben. The rivers bringing the largest amounts of sediment into the Atlantic during the last 150 m.y. have prograded along failed rift arms formed at continental rupture. In some cases their deltas have come to lie on oceanic crust. 相似文献

The Great Basin in the western United States consists of almost level desert basins and alternating parallel mountain ranges. It has sparse, mostly interior, drainage and a few permanent lakes. The climate is arid and semiarid. Fairly large areas are true deserts. The main Cenozoic climatic changes have been: 1. a general cooling during the Tertiary and the early Pleistocene, 2. a progressive drying from the early Miocene into the Pleistocene as a consequence of rise of the Sierra Nevada and the Cascades, and 3. Pleistocene fluctuations between cold-moist and warm-dry ages.The Ice Age left known records of three or four major glaciations, the last of which had two maxima. The glaciations were relatively extensive on the eastern flank of the Sierra Nevada and just east of the Great Basin, and glaciers existed on several ranges in northeastern Nevada. Each glacial was accompanied by a pluvial, which culminated just after the glacial maximum. The pluvial lakes were largest on Lat. 40°. The histories of the huge lakes Bonneville and Lahontan are incompletely known. During the Mankato-Tioga-Provo'glacio-pluvial maximum the temperature in the Great Basin seems to have been only 2.5–3 C° lower, and the precipitation on the surface of Lake Lahontan (Dendritic Lake) twice as large as now.The Neothermal (Postglacial, Postpluvial), the equivalent of the interglacials, is with long-distance correlation in view subdivided on the basis of the major temperature changes into the Ana-,.Alti-, and Medithermal ages. However, in the dry country of the Great Basin the changes in moisture are more apparent and important. The Altithermal was distinctly drier than the present, and nearly all the basins went dry. About 2000 B.C. several basins began again to contain lakes which remained permanent through some acute brief droughts. These recentmodern lakes attained very moderate maxima some time before Christ, while the glaciers in the adjacent mountains probably reached their greatest extent since the Anathermal during the last centuries. 相似文献

Depositional evolution of the Bowen basin 总被引：1，自引：1，他引：0

The Bowen Basin is a structurally complex area occupied by a thick sequence of Permian‐Triassic volcanics and sediments whose depositional history is also complex and in many places has controlled the subsequent structural development. The depositional evolution is portrayed by isopach maps of eight regional rock units recognised in the Bowen Basin sequence. This sequence was deposited in a series of downwarps and on adjacent, less rapidly subsiding shelf areas. This paper discusses the shape, distribution, and persistence in time of the downwarps and shelf areas and indicates the relationship between them and the present structural elements of the Bowen Basin. The relationship of the depositional history of the Bowen Basin to the problems of exploration for oil and gas in the Basin is also discussed. 相似文献

A biogeochemical characterization of the Madeira river basin has been made to evaluate the local and global effects of possible alterations in the ecosystem caused by recent intensive occupation in Rondonia state. During the period April 1983—January 1986, sampling was made both by land and river along the tributaries and main channel of the Madeira river. The parameters analysed lead to a detailed study of the physicochemical quality of the waters of the basin and their relationship with the local geology, associated with the transport of solid material and the hydrological behavior of the ecosystem.Penman's method adapted to tropical rainforest conditions was used to evaluate the potential evapotranspiration for the basin. Estimated potential evapotranspiration was 1420 mm/y, 77% due to the energy balance. Real evapotranspiration was 94% of the estimated potential and the main residence time of the rain water in the basin was 2 months. The isotopic behavior of Hydrogen and Oxygen in the river waters of the region was typical of great rivers, the values being more positive during the dry season and more negative during the rainy season. An isotopic gradient of 18O 0.038 ()/100 km, was established from Porto Velho station to the estuary, which was considered low when compared with the value of 0.063 ()/100 km, obtained for the Amazon river.In general, the waters of the tributaries were poor in dissolved ion species when compared with the main channel of the Madeira river. Seasonal variation in the transport of suspended sediment kept the same pattern, greater transport being observed on rising water than during high water. A transport of 2.85 million tons per day was observed in the Madeira river near the mouth. 相似文献

We present the results of a thrust fault reactivation study that has been carried out using analogue (sandbox) and numerical modelling techniques. The basement of the Pannonian basin is built up of Cretaceous nappe piles. Reactivation of these compressional structures and connected weakness zones is one of the prime agents governing Miocene formation and Quaternary deformation of the basin system. However, reactivation on thrust fault planes (average dip of ca. 30°) in normal or transtensional stress regimes is a problematic process in terms of rock mechanics. The aim of the investigation was to analyse how the different stress regimes (extension or strike-slip), and the geometrical as well as the mechanical parameters (dip and strike of the faults, frictional coefficients) effect the reactivation potential of pre-existing faults.
Results of analogue modelling predict that thrust fault reactivation under pure extension is possible for fault dip angle larger than 45° with normal friction value (sand on sand) of the fault plane. By making the fault plane weaker, reactivation is possible down to 35° dip angle. These values are confirmed by the results of numerical modelling. Reactivation in transtensional manner can occur in a broad range of fault dip angle (from 35° to 20°) and strike angle (from 30° to 5° with respect to the direction of compression) when keeping the maximum horizontal stress magnitude approximately three times bigger than the vertical or the minimum horizontal stress values.
Our research focussed on two selected study areas in the Pannonian basin system: the Danube basin and the Derecske trough in its western and eastern part, respectively. Their Miocene tectonic evolution and their fault reactivation pattern show considerable differences. The dominance of pure extension in the Danube basin vs. strike-slip faulting (transtension) in the Derecske trough is interpreted as a consequence of their different geodynamic position in the evolving Pannonian basin system. In addition, orientation of the pre-existing thrust fault systems with respect to the Early to Middle Miocene paleostress fields had a major influence on reactivation kinematics.
As part of the collapsing east Alpine orogen, the area of the Danube basin was characterised by elevated topography and increased crustal thickness during the onset of rifting in the Pannonian basin. Consequently, an excess of gravitational potential energy resulted in extension (σv > σH) during Early Miocene basin formation. By the time topography and related crustal thickness variation relaxed (Middle Miocene), the stress field had rotated and the minimum horizontal stress axes (σh) became perpendicular to the main strike of the thrusts. The high topography and the rotation of σh could induce nearly pure extension (dip-slip faulting) along the pre-existing low-angle thrusts. On the contrary, the Derecske trough was situated near the Carpathian subduction belt, with lower crustal thickness and no pronounced topography. This resulted in much lower σv value than in the Danube basin. Moreover, the proximity of the retreating subduction slab provided low values of σh and the oblique orientation of the paleostress fields with respect to the master faults of the trough. This led to the dominance of strike-slip faulting in combination with extension and basin subsidence (transtension). 相似文献

Many continental basins were formed when the most of the South Mongolian territoty is modulated to continents from Late Carboniferous (Tectonic map of Mongolia, 1978). One of these basins is Noyon-Gurvantes continental sedimentary basin (NGCB). (Fig. 1)
NGCB comprises on the territory Gurvantes and Noyon sums of Umnugovi aimag (province), which are Noyon mountain range, its mountain side, foot of the mountain, Nariinsukhait and Argun hills geographically. The purpose of our study was to determine the geological age of coal bearing sediments of the coal mines near or at Nariin Sukhait, and to study their structure and moreover enhance the chance to discover new deposits. 相似文献

Holocene fires in the northern Amazon basin 总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3
The ubiquitous occurrence of charcoal in the forest soils of the Upper Rio Negro region of Colombia and Venezuela indicates the presence of frequent and widespread fires in the Amazon Basin, possibly associated with extremely dry periods or human disturbances. Charcoal ranged from 3.12 to 24.76 mg/cm3 in the upper 50 cm of soil and was more abundant in Oxisols and Ultisols than in other soil types. Charcoal dates range from 6260 yr B.P. to the present. Several dates coincide with dry phases recorded during the Holocene. Ceramic shards were found at several sites, and thermoluminescence analysis indicates that their ages range from 3750 to 460 yr B.P. The age of charcoal and shards confirms that this region has been subjected to fire and human disturbances during the past 6000 yr. 相似文献

New magnetic, seismic and bathymetric data show that the South Fiji basin is a structurally complex marginal basin. A gap in the identifiable magnetic anomaly lineations exist over the central part of the basin and prevents the unequivocal linking of the anomaly lineations (anomalies 7A to 12) associated with the ridgc-ridge-ridge triple junction in the north with an apparent single spreading centre of the same age in the south. This gap, which makes a detailed synthesis of the historical development of the basin difficult, may arise from post-spreading intraplate tectonics. If symmetric spreading is assumed, part of the oceanic lithosphere formed during the Oligocene episode of seafloor spreading has subsequently been consumed, presumably by subduction westward under Three Kings rise. 相似文献

The Cenozoic record of the north-western domain of the Duero basin is articulated at the surface through a set of continental depositional sequences called, from base to top, the Vegaquemada sequence, the Candanedo sequence, and the Barrillos sequence. These depositional sequences were deposited in continental sedimentary environments. The deposition of the first sequence occurred through a fluvial system with floodplains cut by low-sinuosity channels. The Vegaquemada sequence was developed between the Middle Eocene and the Early Agenian. The second sequence was formed by a set of highly efficient transport alluvial fans that evolved laterally towards fluvial systems with low-sinuosity fluvial channels and an extensive floodplain, where several types of palaeosols were formed. This sequence developed between the Early Agenian and the Late Vallesian. The third unit–the Barrillos sequence (between the Late Vallesian and the Turolian/Ruscinian transition), was generated by a set of highly efficient transport alluvial fans dominated by low-sinuosity fluvial channels.In subsurface geology, seismic and well data are used to rebuild the stratigraphic architecture. The two basal depositional sequences can be identified with two seismic units: the Palaeogene Seismic Unit (PgSU) and the Neogene Seismic Unit (NgSU), respectively. In the present work, we obtained the isovelocity, isochron, and isobath maps for the top and base of the two Cenozoic units. The Palaeozoic (PzSU) and Mesozoic (MzSU) seismic units are found under these two units. Through study of the logs of the various boreholes, it was only possible to analyse the upper 700 m of the Candanedo Sequence (NgSU), without encompassing the total thickness of the unit. Several middle-order sequences were differentiated, in general showing a sequential fining-upwards evolutionary character. Additionally, for the boreholes analysed two main types of electrofacies were identified, both representing fluvial channels and floodplain deposits.The north-western domain of the Duero basin is interpreted to have been formed in response to the tectonic uplifting of the Cantabrian Mountains since Middle-Eocene times. Integration of the data concerning the surface and subsurface geology in this domain reveals that this basin edge behaved as a foreland basin during Cenozoic stages. The foredeep, with a depth of 2800 m, is oriented east–west and has a sediment thickness of up to 3500 m. The forebulge is located in the southwestern zone and represents an area of basement uplifting in which a minimum thickness of materials from the Cenozoic depositional sequences has accumulated. 相似文献
