The soil's resistance to concentrated flow erosion is an important factor for predicting rill and (ephemeral) gully erosion rates. While it is often treated as a calibration parameter in process-based soil erosion models, global change studies require the estimation of erosion resistance from measurable soil properties. Several laboratory and field experiments have been conducted to determine the erosion resistance of various types of soils, but no attempts have been made hitherto to summarize all these data and to explore them for general trends. In this study, all available data on the resistance of topsoils to concentrated flow erosion in terms of channel erodibility (Kc) and critical shear stress (τcr) has been collected together with all soil and environmental properties reported in literature to affect the soil erosion resistance. Reported Kc values for cropland topsoils range between 0.002 10− 3 s m− 1 and 250 10− 3 s m− 1 (n = 470), whereas τcr values range between 0 and 15 Pa (n = 522). It is demonstrated that so far, the heterogeneity of measurement methods, the lack of standardized definitions and the shortcomings of the flow shear stress model hamper the comparability of soil erosion resistance values from different datasets. Nevertheless, combining Kc and τcr data from different datasets, a general soil erosion resistance ranking for different soil textures can be proposed. The compiled dataset also reveals that tillage practices clearly affect Kc (Kc for conventional tillage > Kc for reduced tillage > Kc for no tillage) but not τcr.It was concluded that Kc and τcr are not related to each other and that soil and macro-environmental properties affecting the foremost do not necessarily affect the latter as well and vise versa. Often Kc seems to be a more appropriate parameter than τcr to represent the differences in soil erosion resistance under various soil and environmental conditions (e.g. bulk density, moisture content, consolidation, tillage). The two parameters represent different quantities and are therefore both needed to characterize the soil's resistance to concentrated flow erosion. 相似文献

The aim of this study was to investigate the accumulation of arsenic (As) in and on roots of Zea mays (maize) and Helianthus annuus (sunflower) by means of synchrotron-based micro-focused X-ray fluorescence imaging (μ-XRF). Plant and soil samples were collected from two field sites in the Hetao Plain (Inner Mongolia, China) which have been regularly irrigated with As-rich groundwater. Detailed μ-XRF element distribution maps were generated at the Fluo-beamline of the Anka synchrotron facility (Karlsruhe Institute of Technology) to assess the spatial distribution of As in thin sections of plant roots and soil particles. The results showed that average As concentrations in the roots (14.5–27.4 mg kg−1) covered a similar range as in the surrounding soil, but local maximum root As concentrations reached up to 424 mg kg−1 (H. annuus) and 1280 mg kg−1 (Z. mays), respectively. Importantly, the results revealed that As had mainly accumulated at the outer rhizodermis along with iron (Fe). We therefore conclude that thin crusts of Fe-(hydr)oxides cover the roots and act as an effective barrier to As, similar to the formation of Fe plaque in rice roots. In contrast to permanently flooded rice paddy fields, regular flood irrigation results in variable redox conditions within the silty and loamy soils at our study site and fosters the formation of Fe-(hydr)oxide plaque on the root surfaces. 相似文献

Three models were examined to predict C aromaticity (fa) of biochars based on either their elemental composition (C, H, N and O) or fixed C (FC) content. Values of fa from solid state 13C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) analysis with Bloch-decay (BD) or direct polarisation (DP) techniques, concentrations of total C, H, N, and organic O, and contents of FC of 60 biochars were either compiled from the literature (dataset 1, n = 52) or generated in this study (dataset 2, n = 8). Models were first calibrated with dataset 1 and then validated with dataset 2. All models were able to fit dataset 1 when atomic H to C ratio (H/C) < 1 (except two ash rich biochars) and to estimate fa of HF treated biochars (H/C < 1). Model 1, which was based on values of H/C only and calibrated with a root mean square of error (RMSE) of 0.04 fa-unit (n = 41), could predict the experimental data with a RMSE = 0.02 fa-unit (n = 6). Model 2, which was based on biochar elemental composition data, showed the most accurate prediction, with a RMSE of 0.03 fa-unit (n = 41) for the calibration data, and of 0.02 fa-unit (n = 6, H/C < 1) for the validation data. Model 3, which was based on contents of FC and C, and modified with a correction factor of 0.96, displayed the highest RMSE (0.06 fa-unit, n = 19) among the three models. Models 1 and 2 did not work properly for samples having either an H/C ratio > 1, high concentrations of carbonate or high inorganic H. These models need to be further tested with a wider range of biochars before they can be recommended for classification of biochar stability. 相似文献

CO2, CH4, and N2 adsorption and gas-induced swelling were quantified for block Blind Canyon, Pittsburgh #8 and Pocahontas Argonne Premium coals that were dried and structurally relaxed at 75 °C in vacuum. Strain measurements were made perpendicular and parallel to the bedding plane on ~ 7 × 7 × 7 mm3 coal blocks and gravimetric sorption measurements were obtained simultaneously on companion coal blocks exposed to the same gaseous environment. The adsorption amount and strain were determined after equilibration at P ≤ 1.8 MPa. There is a strong non-linear correlation between strain and the quantity of gas adsorbed and the results for all gases and coals studied follow a common pattern. The dependence of the coal matrix shrinkage/swelling coefficient (Cgc) on the type and quantity of gas adsorbed is seen by plotting the ratio between the strain and the adsorbate concentration against the adsorbate concentration. In general, Cgc increases with increasing adsorbate concentration over the range of ~ 0.1 to 1.4 mmol/g. Results from the dried block coals are compared to CO2 experiments using native coals with an inherent level of moisture as received. The amount of CO2 adsorbed using native coals (assuming no displacement of H2O by CO2) is significantly less than the dried coals. The gas-induced strain (S) and adsorption amount (M) were measured as a function of time following step changes in CO2, CH4, and N2 pressure from vacuum to 1.8 MPa. An empirical diffusion equation was applied to the kinetic data to obtain the exponent (n) for time dependence for each experiment. The data for all coals were pooled and the exponent (n) evaluated using an ANOVA statistical analysis method. Values for (n) near 0.5 were found to be independent on the coal, the gas or type of measurement (e.g., parallel strain, perpendicular strain, and gas uptake). These data support the use of a Fickian diffusion model framework for kinetic analysis. The kinetic constant k was determined using a unipore diffusion model for each experiment and the data were pooled for ANOVA analysis. For dry coal, statistically significant differences for k were found for the gases (CO2 > N2 > CH4) and coals (Pocahontas >Blind Canyon > Pittsburgh #8) but not for the method of the kinetic measurement (e.g., strain or gas uptake). For Blind Canyon and Pittsburgh #8 coal, the rate of CO2 adsorption and gas-induced strain for dry coal was significantly greater than that of the corresponding native coal. For Pocahontas coal the rates of CO2 adsorption and gas-induced strain for dry and native coal were indistinguishable and may be related to its low native moisture and minimal amount of created porosity upon drying. 相似文献

Previously studied thermosequences of wood (chestnut) and grass (rice straw) biochar were subjected to hydrogen pyrolysis (hypy) to evaluate the efficacy of the technique for determining pyrogenic carbon (CP) abundance. As expected, biochar from both wood and grass produced at higher temperature had higher CP amount. However, the trend was not linear, but more sigmoidal. CP/CT ratio values (CT = total organic carbon) for the wood thermosequence were ⩽0.03 at biochar production temperature (TCHAR) ⩽ 300 °C. They increased dramatically until 600 °C and remained relatively constant and near unity at higher biochar production temperature. Grass biochar was similar in profile, but CP/CT values rose dramatically after 400 °C. The findings are consistent with the hypothesis that hypy residues contain polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) with a degree of condensation above at least 7–14 fused rings, with labile organic matter and pyrogenic PAHs below this degree of condensation removed by hypy.Both wood and grass thermosequences displayed δ13CP values that decreased with increased TCHAR, indicating that recalcitrant carbon compounds (pyrogenic aromatic PAHs with a relatively high degree of condensation) were first formed from structural components with relatively high δ13C values (e.g. cellulose). Relatively constant δ13C values at TCHAR ⩾ 500 °C suggested the dominant pyrolysis reaction was condensation of PAHs with no additional fractionation. Comparison of hypy with benzene polycarboxylic acid (BPCA), ‘ring current’ NMR and pyrolysis gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS) results from the same suite of samples indicated a consistent overview of the structure of CP, but provided unique and complimentary information. 相似文献

A polycrystalline specimen of liebermannite [KAlSi3O8 hollandite] was synthesized at 14.5 GPa and 1473 K using glass starting material in a uniaxial split-sphere apparatus. The recovered specimen is pure tetragonal hollandite [SG: I4/m] with bulk density of within 98% of the measured X-ray value. The specimen was also characterized by Raman spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Sound velocities in this specimen were measured by ultrasonic interferometry to 13 GPa at room T in a uniaxial split-cylinder apparatus using Al2O3 as a pressure marker. Finite strain analysis of the ultrasonic data yielded KS0 = 145(1) GPa, K0′ = 4.9(2), G0 = 92.3(3) GPa, G0′ = 1.6(1) for the bulk and shear moduli and their pressure derivatives, corresponding to VP0 = 8.4(1) km/s, VS0 = 4.9(1) km/s for the sound wave velocities at room temperature. These elasticity data are compared to literature values obtained from static compression experiments and theoretical density functional calculations. 相似文献

Now extinct, short-lived radioactive nuclides, such as 7Be (T1/2 = 53 days), 10Be (T1/2 = 1.5 Ma), 26Al (T1/2 = 0.74 Ma), 36Cl (T1/2 = 0.3 Ma), 41Ca (T1/2 = 0.1 Ma), 53Mn (T1/2 = 3.7 Ma) and 60Fe (T1/2 = 1.5 Ma), were present in the protosolar nebula when the various components of meteorites formed. The presence of these radioactive isotopes requires a ‘last-minute’ origin, either nucleosynthesis in a massive star dying close in space and time to the nascent solar system or production by local irradiation of part of the protosolar disk by high-energy solar cosmic rays. In this review, we list: (i) the different observations indicating the existence of multiple origins for short-lived radioactive nuclides, namely 7Be, 10Be and 36Cl for irradiation scenario and 60Fe for injection scenario; (ii) the constraints that exist on their distribution (homogeneous or heterogeneous) in the accretion disk; (iii) the constraints they brought on the timescales of nebular processes (from Ca–Al-rich inclusions to chondrules) and of the accretion and differentiation of planetesimals. 相似文献

Pure-iron end-member hibbingite, Fe2(OH)3Cl(s), may be important to geological repositories in salt formations, as it may be a dominant corrosion product of steel waste canisters in an anoxic environment in Na–Cl- and Na–Mg–Cl-dominated brines. In this study, the solubility of Fe2(OH)3Cl(s), the pure-iron end-member of hibbingite (FeII, Mg)2(OH)3Cl(s), and Fe(OH)2(s) in 0.04 m to 6 m NaCl brines has been determined. For the reactionFe2(OH)3Cl(s) + 3H+ ? 3 H2O + 2 Fe2+ + Cl?,the solubility constant of Fe2(OH)3Cl(s) at infinite dilution and 25 °C has been found to be log10 K = 17.12 ± 0.15 (95% confidence interval using F statistics for 36 data points and 3 parameters). For the reactionFe(OH)2(s) + 2H+ ? 2 H2O + Fe2+,the solubility constant of Fe(OH)2 at infinite dilution and 25 °C has been found to be log10 K = 12.95 ± 0.13 (95 % confidence interval using F statistics for 36 data points and 3 parameters). For the combined set of solubility data for Fe2(OH)3Cl(s) and Fe(OH)2(s), the Na+–Fe2+ pair Pitzer interaction parameter θNa+/Fe2+ has been found to be 0.08 ± 0.03 (95% confidence interval using F statistics for 36 data points and 3 parameters). In nearly saturated NaCl brine we observed evidence for the conversion of Fe(OH)2(s) to Fe2(OH)3Cl(s). Additionally, when Fe2(OH)3Cl(s) was added to sodium sulfate brines, the formation of green rust(II) sulfate was observed, along with the generation of hydrogen gas. The results presented here provide insight into understanding and modeling the geochemistry and performance assessment of nuclear waste repositories in salt formations. 相似文献

The linkage between the iron and the carbon cycles is of paramount importance to understand and quantify the effect of increased CO2 concentrations in natural waters on the mobility of iron and associated trace elements. In this context, we have quantified the thermodynamic stability of mixed Fe(III) hydroxo-carbonate complexes and their effect on the solubility of Fe(III) oxihydroxides. We present the results of carefully performed solubility measurements of 2-line ferrihydrite in the slightly acidic to neutral–alkaline pH ranges (3.8–8.7) under constant pCO2 varying between (0.982–98.154 kPa) at 25 °C.The outcome of the work indicates the predominance of two Fe(III) hydroxo carbonate complexes FeOHCO3 and Fe(CO3)33−, with formation constants log*β°1,1,1 = 10.76 ± 0.38 and log β°1,0,3 = 24.24 ± 0.42, respectively.The solubility constant for the ferrihydrite used in this study was determined in acid conditions (pH: 1.8–3.2) in the absence of CO2 and at T = (25 ± 1) °C, as log*Ks,0 = 1.19 ± 0.41.The relative stability of the Fe(III)-carbonate complexes in alkaline pH conditions has implications for the solubility of Fe(III) in CO2-rich environments and the subsequent mobilisation of associated trace metals that will be explored in subsequent papers. 相似文献

Small angle neutron scattering techniques have been applied to investigate the phase behavior of CO2 injected into coal and possible changes in the coal pore structure that may result from this injection. Three coals were selected for this study: the Seelyville coal from the Illinois Basin (Ro = 0.53%), Baralaba coal from the Bowen Basin (Ro = 0.67%), and Bulli 4 coal from the Sydney Basin (Ro = 1.42%). The coals were selected from different depths to represent the range of the underground CO2 conditions (from subcritical to supercritical) which may be realized in the deep subsurface environment. The experiments were conducted in a high pressure cell and CO2 was injected under a range of pressure conditions, including those corresponding to in-situ hydrostatic subsurface conditions for each coal. Our experiments indicate that the porous matrix of all coals remains essentially unchanged after exposure to CO2 at pressures up to 200 bar (1 bar = 105 Pa). Each coal responds differently to the CO2 exposure and this response appears to be different in pores of various sizes within the same coal. For the Seelyville coal at reservoir conditions (16 °C, 50 bar), CO2 condenses from a gas into liquid, which leads to increased average fluid density in the pores (ρpore) with sizes (r) 1 × 105 ≥ r ≥ 1 × 104 Å (ρpore ≈ 0.489 g/cm3) as well as in small pores with size between 30 and 300 Å (ρpore ≈ 0.671 g/cm3). These values are by a factor of three to four higher than the density of bulk CO2 (ρCO2) under similar thermodynamic conditions (ρCO2 ≈ 0.15 g/cm3). At the same time, in the intermediate size pores with r ≈ 1000 Å the average fluid density is similar to the density of bulk fluid, which indicates that adsorption does not occur in these pores. At in situ conditions for the Baralaba coal (35 OC, 100 bar), the average fluid density of CO2 in all pores is lower than that of the bulk fluid (ρpore / ρCO2 ≈ 0.6). Neutron scattering from the Bulli 4 coal did not show any significant variation with pressure, a phenomenon which we assign to the extremely small amount of porosity of this coal in the pore size range between 35 and 100,000 Å. 相似文献

The latest hydraulic fracturing and stress relief measurement data in the Chinese mainland were collected. The total of 3856 data entries are measured at 1474 locations. The measured area covers 75–130°E and 18–47°N, and the depth range varies from surface to 4000 meters depth, which generally includes each active tectonic block of China and each segment of North–South seismic belt. We investigated the tectonic stress field by removing the effect of gravity. For this, we assume lateral constraints and Heim’s rule. The gravity contribution is removed by using the assumption of lateral constraint and Heim’s rule. Our results show: (1) the maximum and the minimum horizontal principal stress σH, σh and the vertical stress σV in the shallow crust of China all increase linearly with depth: σH = 0.0229D + 4.738, σh = 0.0171D + 1.829, σV = 0.0272D. Maximum and minimum horizontal tectonic stress varies as a function of depth D linearly 4.738 < σT < 0.0139D + 4.738 and 1.829 < σt < 0.0162D + 1.829. The horizontal tectonic differential stress is σT − σt = 0.0058D + 2.912. (2) The intermediate value of σT1 (regression value of tectonic stress inferred from the assumption of lateral constraint at 2000 m depth) changes in different areas, the maximum value of which is 45.6 MPa, while the minimum value of which is 26.8 MPa. Horizontal tectonic differential stress σT − σt increases linearly with depth and the maximum and minimum of σT − σt is 25.3 MPa and 13.0 MPa, respectively. In general, the stress magnitude is much higher in western than in eastern China. This indicates that the strong Indo-Eurasian collision dominates the present tectonic stress field in Chinese mainland. (3) Compared with other study regions, the northward crustal compression to the Qinghai-Tibet block is relatively lower in magnitude in the shallow subsurface and higher at deeper depth. (4) The orientations of σT in China mainland generally form a radial scattering pattern centered in Tibetan Plateau. From western to eastern China, they rotate gradually clockwise from NS to NNE, NE, NEE, and SE, which is consistent with the result of focal mechanism solutions. 相似文献

Paleoproterozoic mafic dyke swarms (2.5–2.0 Ga) of the Ungava Peninsula can be divided in three chemical groups. The main group has a wide range of Fe (10–18 wt.% Fe2O3) and Ti (0.8–2.0 wt.% TiO2) contents, and the most magnesian samples have compositions consistent with melting of a fertile lherzolitic mantle at ~ 1.5 GPa. Dykes of a low-LREE (light rare earth element) subgroup (La/Yb ≤ 4) display decreasing Zr/Nb with increasing La/Yb ratios and positive εNd2.0 Ga values (+ 3.9 to + 0.2) that trend from primitive mantle towards the composition of Paleoproterozoic alkaline rocks. In contrast, dykes of a high-LREE subgroup (La/Yb ≥4) display increasing Zr/Nb ratios and negative εNd2.0 Ga values (? 2.3 to ? 6.4) that trend towards the composition of Archean crust. A low Fe–Ti group has low Fe (< 11 wt.% Fe2O3), Ti (< 0.8 wt.% TiO2), high field strength elements (HFSE; < 6 ppm Nb) and heavy rare earth elements (HREE; < 2 ppm Yb) contents, but are enriched in large ion lithophile elements (LILE; K/Ti = 0.7–3) and LREE (La/Yb > 4). These dykes are interpreted as melts of a depleted harzburgitic mantle that has experienced metasomatic enrichment. A positive correlation of Zr/Nb ratio and La/Yb ratio, negative εNd2.0 Ga values (? 14 to ? 6), and the presence of inherited Archean zircons further suggest the incorporation of a crustal component. A high Fe–Ti group has high Fe (> 14 wt.% Fe2O3) and Ti (> 1.4 wt.% TiO2) contents, along with higher Na contents relative to the main group dykes. Dykes of a high-Al subgroup (> 12 wt.% Al2O3) share Fe contents, εNd2.0 Ga values (? 2.3 to ? 3.4), La/Yb and Th/Nb ratios with Archean ferropicrites, and may represent evolved ferropicrite melts. A low-Al subgroup (< 12 wt.% Al2O3) has relatively lower Yb contents (< 2 ppm) and fractionated HREE patterns that indicate the presence of garnet in their melting residue. A comparison with ~ 5 GPa experimentally-derived melts suggests that these dykes may be derived from garnet-bearing pyroxenite or peridotite. The εNd2.0 Ga values (? 0.3 to ? 2.0) of these dykes lie between the compositions of Archean granitoids and Paleoproterozoic alkaline rocks, signifying their petrogenesis involved both crustal and mantle components.Paleoproterozoic dykes containing a crustal component occur within, or close to, an isotopically enriched Archean terrane (TDM 4.3–3.1 Ga), whereas dykes without this component occur in an isotopically juvenile terrane (TDM < 3.1 Ga). The lack of a crustal component and the positive εNd2.0 Ga values of dykes intruding the latter suggest that the crust they intruded was either too cold to be assimilated, or that its lower crust and/or lithosphere were Paleoproterozoic in age. In contrast, the ubiquitous presence of a crustal component and the diversity of mantle sources for dykes intruding the enriched terrane (lherzolite, harzburgite, pyroxenite) suggest a warmer crust with underlying heterogeneous lithospheric mantle. 相似文献

Significant amounts of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) rich saline water can be produced by the oxidation of sulfide minerals contained in inland acid sulfate soils (IASS). In the absence of carbonate minerals, the dissolution of phyllosilicate minerals is one of very few processes that can provide long-term acid neutralisation. It is therefore important to understand the acid dissolution behavior of naturally occurring clay minerals from IASS under saline–acidic solutions. The objective of this study was to investigate the dissolution of a natural clay-rich sample under saline–acidic conditions (pH 1–4; ionic strengths = 0.01 and 0.25 M; 25 °C) and over a range of temperatures (25–45 °C; pH 1 and pH 4). The clay-rich sample referred to as Bottle Bend clay (BB clay) used was from an IASS (Bottle Bend lagoon) in south-western New South Wales (Australia) and contained smectite (40%), illite (27%), kaolinite (26%) and quartz (6%). Acid dissolution of the BB clay was initially rapid, as indicated by the fast release of cations (Si, Al, K, Fe, Mg). Relatively higher Al (pH 4) and K (pH 2–4) release was obtained from BB clay dissolution in higher ionic strength solutions compared to the lower ionic strength solutions. The steady state dissolution rate (as determined from Si, Al and Fe release rates; RSi, RAl, RFe) increased with decreasing solution pH and increasing temperature. For example, the highest log RSi value was obtained at pH 1 and 45 °C (−9.07 mol g−1 s−1), while the lowest log RSi value was obtained at pH 4 and 25 °C (−11.20 mol g−1 s−1). A comparison of these results with pure mineral dissolution rates from the literature suggests that the BB clay dissolved at a much faster rate compared to the pure mineral samples. Apparent activation energies calculated for the clay sample varied over the range 76.6 kJ mol−1 (pH 1) to 37.7 kJ mol−1 (pH 4) which compare very well with the activation energy values for acidic dissolution of monomineralic samples e.g. montmorillonite from previous studies. The acid neutralisation capacity (ANC) of the clay sample was calculated from the release of all structural cations except Si (i.e. Al, Fe, K, Mg). According to these calculations an ANC of 1.11 kg H2SO4/tonne clay/day was provided by clay dissolution at pH 1 (I = 0.25 M, 25 °C) compared to an ANC of 0.21 kg H2SO4/tonne clay/day at pH 4 (I = 0.25 M, 25 °C). The highest ANC of 6.91 kg H2SO4/tonne clay/day was provided by clay dissolution at pH 1 and at 45 °C (I = 0.25 M), which is more than three times higher than the ANC provided under the similar solution conditions at 25 °C. In wetlands with little solid phase buffering available apart from clay minerals, it is imperative to consider the potential ANC provided by the dissolution of abundantly occurring phyllosilicate minerals in devising rehabilitation schemes. 相似文献

The study area lies between latitude 18–26°N and longitude 73–83°E, and mainly covers the Central India Tectonic Zone (CITZ). The frequency-dependent shear wave quality factor (Qs) has been estimated over the CITZ and its surroundings using Double Spectral Ratio (DSR) method. We have considered 25 local earthquakes with magnitude (ML) varies from 3.0 to 4.7 recorded at 11 stations running under national seismic network. The Fast Fourier Transformed (FFT) spectra were computed from the recorded waveform having time-window from onset of S-phase to 1.0 s and for a frequency-band of 0.1–10 Hz. Three different shear wave velocities (i.e., 3.87, 3.39 and 3.96 km/s) were obtained over the study area based on a pair of earthquakes recorded at a pair of stations. The low Qs values of 51–96 at 1 Hz (i.e., Qs = 51f0.49; Qs = 90f0.488 and Qs = 96f0.53) were found in the area covering the Son–Narmada–Tapti (SONATA) lineament, CITZ, eastern part of the Satpura fold belt, Vindhyan and Gondwana basins, Godavari and Mahanadi grabens, and southern part of Gangetic plain. Intermediate Qs values of the order of 204–277 (i.e., Qs = 204f0.56 and Qs = 277f0.55) were noted in the cartonic areas, namely, Bundelkhand, Dharwar-Bhandara and Bastar. While the higher Qs values of 391–628 at 1 Hz (i.e., Qs = 391f0.49, Qs = 409f0.48, Qs = 417f0.48, Qs = 500f0.66, Qs = 585f0.65 and Qs = 628f0.69) were found in the eastern part of the SONATA, CITZ, and the northeastern part of the Satpura fold belt. The low Qs values might be attributing to the more heterogeneous SONATA rift system. Low Qs values further may presumably be associated with lower-level of seismicity and apparently account for higher tectonic stress accumulation over long duration. The long-term accumulated stress is generally released through occasional triggering of moderate magnitude earthquakes in the SONATA zone. Surrounding the SONATA region, the higher Qs values possibly accounts for a more homogeneous subsurface structure along the SONATA zone. 相似文献

Precise indices based on n-alkane signatures were developed in order to determine the sources and composition of sedimentary organic matter (SOM) in coastal systems. The Arcachon Bay (France), a well-studied temperate lagoon, was used as an example of a complex coastal system sheltering a wide diversity of OM sources. Three main groups of sources were well discriminated from their n-alkane signatures: seagrass (Zostera sp.) produced mainly n-C17, n-C19, n-C21, n-C23 and n-C25 alkanes, algae (Rhodophyta, Chlorophyta) produced n-C15 and n-C17 and the terrigenous input [Quercus sp., Spartina sp. and river suspended particulate OM (SPOM)] was characterized by n-C25, n-C27, n-C29, n-C31 and n-C33. From the above and literature n-alkane fingerprints, we developed a set of indices (n-alkane ratios) to quantify the contribution of these three major sources of the SOM. At the Arcachon Bay scale, they indicated that SOM was composed mainly of seagrass (ca. 53 ± 19%) and terrestrial (ca. 41 ± 17%) material, followed by algae (ca. 6 ± 9%). Moreover, the new n-alkane indices exhibited more relevant spatial patterns than classical ones – the TAR (C27 + C29 + C31/C15 + C17 + C19; terrestrial to aquatic ratio) and the Paq (C23 + C25/C23 + C25 + C29 + C31; aquatic plant %) – with a greater contribution from marine sources in the central part of the lagoon where a high density of Zostera seagrass was observed. Therefore, the development of precise indices adapted to the local diversity of OM sources is needed when using n-alkanes for quantifying the source composition of SOM in complex coastal systems. 相似文献

A series of methane (CH4) adsorption experiments on bulk organic rich shales and their isolated kerogens were conducted at 35 °C, 50 °C and 65 °C and CH4 pressure of up to 15 MPa under dry conditions. Samples from the Eocene Green River Formation, Devonian–Mississippian Woodford Shale and Upper Cretaceous Cameo coal were studied to examine how differences in organic matter type affect natural gas adsorption. Vitrinite reflectance values of these samples ranged from 0.56–0.58 %Ro. In addition, thermal maturity effects were determined on three Mississippian Barnett Shale samples with measured vitrinite reflectance values of 0.58, 0.81 and 2.01 %Ro.For all bulk and isolated kerogen samples, the total amount of methane adsorbed was directly proportional to the total organic carbon (TOC) content of the sample and the average maximum amount of gas sorption was 1.36 mmol of methane per gram of TOC. These results indicate that sorption on organic matter plays a critical role in shale-gas storage. Under the experimental conditions, differences in thermal maturity showed no significant effect on the total amount of gas sorbed. Experimental sorption isotherms could be fitted with good accuracy by the Langmuir function by adjusting the Langmuir pressure (PL) and maximum sorption capacity (Γmax). The lowest maturity sample (%Ro = 0.56) displayed a Langmuir pressure (PL) of 5.15 MPa, significantly larger than the 2.33 MPa observed for the highest maturity (%Ro > 2.01) sample at 50 °C.The value of the Langmuir pressure (PL) changes with kerogen type in the following sequence: type I > type II > type III. The thermodynamic parameters of CH4 adsorption on organic rich shales were determined based on the experimental CH4 isotherms. For the adsorption of CH4 on organic rich shales and their isolated kerogen, the heat of adsorption (q) and the standard entropy (Δs0) range from 7.3–28.0 kJ/mol and from −36.2 to −92.2 J/mol/K, respectively. 相似文献

Experiments on the origin of the Udachnaya-East kimberlite (UEK) have been performed using a Kawai-type multianvil apparatus at 3–6.5 GPa and 900–1500 °C. The studied composition represents exceptionally fresh Group-I kimberlite containing (wt.%): SiO2 = 25.9, TiO2 = 1.8, Al2O3 = 2.8, FeO = 9.0, MgO = 30.1, CaO = 12.7, Na2O = 3.4, K2O = 1.3, P2O5 = 1.0, Cl = 0.9, CO2 = 9.9, and H2O = 0.5. The super-solidus assemblage consists of melt, olivine (Ol), Ca-rich (26.0–30.2 wt.% CaO) garnet (Gt), Al-spinel (Sp), perovskite (Pv), a CaCO3 phase (calcite or aragonite), and apatite. The low pressure assemblage (3–4 GPa) also includes clinopyroxene. The apparent solidus was established between 900 and 1000 °C at 6.5 GPa. At 6.5 GPa and 900 °C Na–Ca carbonate with molar ratio of (Na + K)/Ca ≈ 0.44 was observed. The UEK did not achieve complete melting even at 1500 °C and 6.5 GPa, due to excess xenogenic Ol in the starting material. In the studied P–T range, the melt has a Ca-carbonatite composition (Ca# = molar Ca/(Ca + Mg) ratio = 0.62–0.84) with high alkali and Cl contents (7.3–11.4 wt.% Na2O, 2.8–6.7 wt.% K2O, 1.6–3.4 wt.% Cl). The K, Na and Cl contents and Ca# decrease with temperature. It is argued that the primary kimberlite melt at depths > 200 km was an essentially carbonatitic (< 5 wt.% SiO2), but evolved toward a carbonate–silicate composition (up to 15–20 wt.% SiO2) during ascent. The absence of orthopyroxene among the run products indicates that xenogenic orthopyroxene was preferentially dissolved into the kimberlite melt. The obtained subliquidus phase assemblage (Ol + Sp + Pv + Ca-rich Gt) at P–T conditions of the UEK source region, i.e. where melt was in the last equilibrium with source rock before magma ascent, differs from the Opx-bearing peridotitic mineral assemblage of the UEK source region. This difference can be ascribed to the loss of substantial amounts of CO2 from the kimberlite magma at shallow depths, as indicated by both petrological and experimental data. Our study implies that alkali-carbonatite melt would be a liquid phase within mantle plumes generated at the core–mantle boundary or shallower levels of the mantle, enhancing the ascent velocity of the plumes. We conclude that the long-term activity of a rising hot mantle plume and associated carbonatite melt (i.e. kimberlite melt) causes thermo-mechanical erosion of the subcontinental lithosphere mantle (SCLM) roots and creates hot and deformed metasomatic regions in the lower parts of the SCLM, which corresponds to depths constrained by P–T estimates of sheared Gt-peridotite xenoliths. The sheared Gt-peridotites undoubtedly represent samples of these regions. 相似文献

The solubility of synthetic ZnS(cr) was measured at 25–250 °C and P = 150 bars as a function of pH in aqueous sulfide solutions (~ 0.015–0.15 m of total reduced sulfur). The solubility determinations were performed using a Ti flow-through hydrothermal reactor. The solubility of ZnS(cr) was found to increase slowly with temperature over the whole pH range from 2 to ~ 10. The values of the Zn–S–HS complex stability constant, β, were determined for Zn(HS)20(aq), Zn(HS)3?, Zn(HS)42?, and ZnS(HS)?. Based on the experimental values the Ryzhenko–Bryzgalin electrostatic model parameters for these stability constants were calculated, and the ZnS(cr) solubility and the speciation of Zn in sulfide-containing hydrothermal solutions were evaluated. The most pronounced solubility increase, about 3 log units at m(Stotal) = 0.1 for the temperatures from 25 to 250 °C, was found in acidic solutions (pH ~ 3 to 4) in the Zn(HS)20(aq) predominance field. In weakly alkaline solutions, where Zn(HS)3? and Zn(HS)42? are the dominant Zn–S–HS complexes, the ZnS(cr) solubility increases by 1 log unit at the same conditions. It was found that ZnS(HS)? and especially Zn(HS)42? become less important in high temperature solutions. At 25 °C and m(Stotal) = 0.1, these species dominate Zn speciation at pH > 7. At 100 °C and m(Stotal) = 0.1, the maximum fraction of Zn(HS)42? is only 20% of the total Zn concentration (i.e. at pHt ~ 7.5), whereas at 350 °C and 3 <pHt <10, the fraction of Zn(HS)42? and ZnS(HS)? is less than 0.05% and 2.5% respectively, of the total Zn concentration and Zn(HS)20 and Zn(HS)3? predominate. The measured equilibrium formation constants were combined with the literature data on the stability of Zn–Cl complexes in order to evaluate the concentration and speciation of Zn in chloride solutions. It was found that at acidic pH, and in more saline fluids having total chloride > 0.05 m, Zn–Cl complexes are responsible for hydrothermal Zn transport with no significant contribution of Zn–S–HS complexes. The hydrosulfide/sulfide complexes will play a more important role in lower salinity (< 0.05 m chloride) hydrothermal solutions which are characteristic of many epithermal ore depositing environments. The value of ΔfG° (β-ZnS(cr)) = ? 198.6 ± 0.2 kJ/mol at 25 °C was determined via solubility measurements of natural low-iron Santander (Spain) sphalerite. 相似文献

We report for the first time the evidence for prograde high-pressure (HP) metamorphism preceding a peak ultrahigh-temperature (UHT) event in the northernmost part of the Madurai Block in southern India. Mg–Al-rich Grt–Ged rocks from Komateri in Karur district contain poikiloblastic garnet with numerous multi-phase inclusions. Although most of the inclusion assemblages are composed of gedrite, quartz, and secondary biotite, rare staurolite + sapphirine and spinel + quartz are also present. The XMg (=Mg/[Fe+Mg]) of staurolite (0.45–0.49) is almost consistent with that reported previously from Namakkal district in the Palghat–Cauvery Shear Zone system (XMg = 0.51–0.52), north of the Madurai Block. The HP event was followed by peak UHT metamorphism at T = 880–1040 °C and P = 9.8–12.5 kbar as indicated by thermobarometric computations in the Grt–Ged rock and associated mafic granulite. Symplectic intergrowth of spinel (XMg = 0.50–0.59, ZnO < 1.7 wt.%) and quartz, a diagnostic indicator of UHT metamorphism, probably formed by decompression at UHT conditions. The rocks subsequently underwent retrograde metamorphism at T = 720–760 °C and P = 4.2–5.1 kbar. The P–T conditions and clockwise exhumation trajectory of the Komateri rocks, comparable to similar features recorded from the Palghat–Cauvery Shear Zone system, suggest that the Madurai Block and the Palghat–Cauvery Shear Zone system underwent similar HP and UHT metamorphic history probably related to the continent–continent collision during the final stage of amalgamation of Gondwana supercontinent. 相似文献

(Ni-Sb)-bearing Cu-arsenides are rare minerals within the Mlakva and Kram mining sectors (Boranja ore field) one of the less-known Serbian Cu deposits. (Ni-Sb)-bearing Cu-arsenides were collected from the Mlakva skarn-replacement Cu(Ag,Bi)-FeS polymetallic deposit. The identified phases include β-domeykite, Ni-bearing koutekite and (Ni-Sb)-bearing α-domeykite. (Ni-Sb)-bearing Cu-arsenides are associated with nickeline, arsenical breithauptite, chalcocite, native Ag, native Pb and litharge. Pyrrhotite, pyrite, chalcopyrite, cubanite, bismuthinite, molybdenite, sphalerite, galena, Pb(Cu)-Bi sulfosalts and native Bi, as well as minor magnetite, scheelite and powellite are associated with the sulfide paragenesis. The electron microprobe analyses of the (Ni-Sb)-bearing Cu-arsenides yielded the following average formulae: (Cu2.73,Ni0.17,Fe0.03,Ag0.01)∑ 2.94(As0.98,Sb0.05,S0.02)∑ 1.06–β-domeykite (simplified formula (Cu2.7,Ni0.2)∑ 2.9As1.1); (Cu3.40,Ni1.40,Fe0.11)∑ 4.91(As1.94,Sb0.13,S0.02)∑ 2.08–Ni-bearing koutekite (simplified formula (Cu3.4Ni1.5)∑ 4.9As2.1); and Cu1.97(Ni0.98,Fe0.03)∑ 1.01(As0.81,Sb0.22)∑ 1.03–(Ni–Sb)-bearing α-domeykite (simplified formula Cu2NiAs). The Rietveld refinement yielded the following unit-cell parameters for β-domeykite and Ni–bearing koutekite: a = 7.1331(4); c = 7.3042(5) Å; V = 321.86(2) Å3, and a = 5.922(4); b = 11.447(9); c = 5.480(4) Å; V = 371.48(5) Å3, respectively. Ore geology, paragenetic assemblages and genesis of the Mlakva deposit are discussed in detail and the Cu-As-Ni-Sb-Pb mineralization has been compared with similar well-known global deposits. 相似文献
