New geochemical, isotopic, and geochronological data and interpretations are presented for late Neoproterozoic intrusive carbonates and related rocks of southern Sinai, Egypt (northernmost Arabian–Nubian Shield). The Tarr carbonates are coarsely crystalline and related to explosive emplacement of hypabyssal and volcanic albitite at 605 ± 13 Ma. The carbonates associated with the albitites are divisible into two types: primary dolomitite and secondary breunneritite (Fe-rich magnesite). The dolomitite was clearly intrusive but differs from classic igneous carbonatites, containing much lower abundances of incompatible elements, such as REE, U, Th, Rb, Nb, Y, P, Sr, Zr, Ba, and total alkalies. The breunneritite is a secondary replacement of dolomitite, probably marking the roots of a vigorous hydrothermal system. Albitites show pristine abundances of major and trace elements and were not subjected to a major metamorphic overprint. They are relatively more fractionated, alkaline and related to within-plate A-type magmas, were emplaced in an extensional or non-compressive tectonic regime in the cupola of high-level A-type granite. Tarr albitites may represent residual magma remaining after near-total crystallization of an A-type granite pluton at depth, forcibly emplaced into the roof above the cooling pluton. The intrusive dolomitite exsolved from highly differentiated albitite melt, in the apical regions of a still-buried alkaline “A-type” granite pluton that was rich in CO2; these volatiles migrated upwards and towards the cooler margins of the magma body. Late NNE-SSW extension allowed a shallow-level cupola to form, into which albitite melts and carbonate fluids migrated, culminating in explosive emplacement of albitite breccia and intrusive carbonate. Isotopic compositions of Tarr dolomitite and albitite indicate these are consanguineous and ultimately of mantle origin. Magmatic volatiles fenitized the wall rock, while submarine hydrothermal activity transformed some of the dolomitite into breunneritite. Recognition of Tarr-type should encourage similar hypabyssal complex intrusions to be sought for in association with A-type granitic plutons elsewhere.  相似文献

This paper proposes an interpolation method based on a modified Kohonen artificial neural network, and is used to interpolate marine gravity data on a regular grid. This method combines accuracy comparable to that of kriging with a much shorter computing time than kriging. It is particularly efficient when both the size of the grid and the quantity of available data are large. Under some hypotheses similar to those of kriging with a trend, the unbiasedness and optimality of the method can be demonstrated. Comparison with kriging with a trend using marine gravity data shows similar results. Although neural interpolation is slightly less efficient, it is more robust outside of the marine data area.  相似文献

A 30 m-deep drill core from a glacially overdeepened trough in Northern Switzerland recovered a ~180 ka old sedimentary succession that provides new insights into the timing and nature of erosion–sedimentation processes in the Swiss lowlands. The luminescence-dated stratigraphic succession starts at the bottom of the core with laminated carbonate-rich lake sediments reflecting deposition in a proglacial lake between ~180 and 130 ka ago (Marine Isotope Stage MIS 6). Anomalies in geotechnical properties and the occurrence of deformation structures suggest temporary ice contact around 140 ka. Up-core, organic content increases in the lake deposits indicating a warming of climate. These sediments are overlain by a peat deposit characterised by pollen assemblages typical of the late Eemian (MIS 5e). An abrupt transition following this interglacial encompasses a likely hiatus and probably marks a sudden lowering of the water level. The peat unit is overlain by deposits of a cold unproductive lake dated to late MIS 5 and MIS 4, which do not show any direct influence from glaciers. An upper peat unit, the so-called «Mammoth peat», previously encountered in construction pits, interrupts this cold lacustrine phase and marks more temperate climatic conditions between 60 and 45 ka (MIS 3). In the upper part of the core, a succession of fluvial and alluvial deposits documents the Late Glacial and Holocene sedimentation in the basin. The sedimentary succession at Wehntal confirms that the glaciation during MIS 6 did not apparently cause the overdeepening of the valley, as the lacustrine basin fill covering most of MIS 6 is still preserved. Consequently, erosion of the basin is most likely linked to an older glaciation. This study shows that new dating techniques combined with palaeoenvironmental interpretations of sediments from such overdeepened troughs provide valuable insights into the past glacial history.  相似文献

This paper presents a new numerical program able to model syntectonic sedimentation. The new model combines a discrete element model of the tectonic deformation of a sedimentary cover and a process-based model of sedimentation in a single framework. The integration of these two methods allows us to include the simulation of both sedimentation and deformation processes in a single and more effective model. The paper describes briefly the antecedents of the program, Simsafadim-Clastic and a discrete element model, in order to introduce the methodology used to merge both programs to create the new code. To illustrate the operation and application of the program, analysis of the evolution of syntectonic geometries in an extensional environment and also associated with thrust fault propagation is undertaken. Using the new code, much more complex and realistic depositional structures can be simulated together with a more complex analysis of the evolution of the deformation within the sedimentary cover, which is seen to be affected by the presence of the new syntectonic sediments.  相似文献

The recent morphological evolution of Macquarie Rivulet delta, Lake Illawarra, New South Wales, has been assessed from historical parish maps from 1834, 1892, 1916 and 1927 along with aerial photographs from 1938 to 2002. These images were digitised, georeferenced and analysed in a GIS framework. The 1834 sketch map could not be georeferenced and it was excluded from the calculation of delta progradation areas. Between 1892 and 1927 morphological changes were minimal, probably because the areas were not resurveyed between these map editions. A significant change in morphology between 1927 and 1938 reflects a change in source material from maps to aerial photographs. The research highlights that great care must be taken when utilising historical data. Major morphological changes observed between 1938 and 2002 included the development of a large crevasse splay in the 1960s to 1970s and the abandonment and infilling of the delta's previously active distributary channels. The research shows that the morphological changes observed on the delta can be related to both natural processes and anthropogenic modifications to the catchment and thus could be used in the development of catchment management plans.  相似文献

Considering that urban areas may suffer more substantial losses than riparian farmlands during floods, diverting floodwater into riparian areas for temporal detention is expected to mitigate flood damage in downstream urban areas. In this study, an assessment has been conducted to evaluate the effect of flood mitigation through riparian detention in response to a changing climate in the Tou-Chien River basin of Taiwan. An integrated 1D–2D flow model was used to simulate the movement of flood wave in the main stream and the overbank flow inundating into the nearby lowlands. Based on the numerical simulation results, the flooding extents in the basin corresponding to different return periods of flood using existing flood prevention infrastructures were investigated. A detention strategy by lowering the levee along the riparian farmlands was proposed to avoid severe flooding in the densely populated urban areas of the basin. Research findings showed that the proposed detention measure can completely protect the downstream areas from overbank flooding when a flood having 20-yr period occurs, and can effectively alleviate the downstream flooding area from 27.4 to \(7.6\,\hbox {km}^{2}\) for a flood possessing 200-yr period.  相似文献

The compression behavior of a synthetic Ca4La6(SiO4)6(OH)2 has been investigated to about 9.33 GPa at 300 K using in situ angle-dispersive X-ray diffraction and a diamond anvil cell. No phase transition has been observed within the pressure range investigated. The values of zero-pressure volume V 0, K 0, and $K_{0}^{'}$ refined with a third-order Birch–Murnaghan equation of state are V 0 = 579.2 ± 0.1 Å3, K 0 = 89 ± 2 GPa, and $K_{0}^{'} = 10.9 \pm 0.8$ . If $K_{0}^{'}$ is fixed at 4, K 0 is obtained as 110 ± 2 GPa. Analysis of axial compressible modulus shows that the a-axis (K a0 = 79 ± 2 GPa) is more compressible than the c-axis (K c0 = 121 ± 7 GPa). A comparison between the high-pressure elastic response of Ca4La6(SiO4)6(OH)2 and the iso-structural calcium apatites is made. The possible reasons of the different elastic behavior between Ca4La6(SiO4)6(OH)2 and calcium apatites are discussed.  相似文献

Recently, new theories on underground geophysical and geochemical interactions which had been reported to occur during the preparation stages of earthquakes and the remotely measurable variations have been put to test and some warning factors were suggested as earthquake precursors. Data vendors are providing daily basis information from the earth's surface by combining remote sensing data and in situ observations. In this paper, we analyze atmospheric, oceanic, and surface changes in the ocean, coast, and land lying near the epicenters of two recent major earthquakes. The changes are studied in terms of the regional fault locations which have been reported by the U.S. Geological Survey as the shake triggering geological structures. Our detailed analyses showed anomalous increases of surface latent heat flux (SLHF) for both the earthquakes. Meaningfully limited to the geographical extents of the regional active faults, the SLHF variation patterns suggest pre-seismic activity 2–3 weeks before the main events. The agreement of these variations with abnormalities in other climatic and surface factors like relative humidity and temperature represents an unusual situation during the same period as well. Spatiotemporal variations of chlorophyll-a was also studied as another earthquake indicator. Abnormal rises in these factors are possibly caused by the formation of micro-cracks, heat production, evaporation, ionization, and upwelling of nutrient-rich water produced by pre-seismic activity prior to the main events.  相似文献

In this project, the oxidation of SO2 pollutant by Mn/Iranian hematite (Mn/IH) as a novel nanocatalyst in aqueous solution was investigated and followed by conductometry in a semi-batch reactor. The removal of SO2 gas is very important for decreasing the environmental pollution. The Mn/IH was prepared by coprecipitation method, and a novel way was used for converting SO2 to sulfuric acid as an energy source. The characterization of catalyst was determined by X-ray diffraction, energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy and X-ray fluorescence techniques. A Box–Behnken design was used to reduce the number of test runs and optimize the influencing factors such as the amount of nanocatalyst, temperature and the reaction time in oxidation of SO2. The graphical counter plots and response surface were used to determine the optimum conditions. Analysis of variance showed a high determination coefficient value (\(R^{2} = 0.9999\), \(R_{\text{adj}}^{2} = 0.9996\) and \(R_{\text{pred}}^{2} = 0.9980\) for oxidation of SO2) and satisfactory prediction second-order regression model. Based on the optimum results, the maximum efficiency for oxidation of SO2 was 90.67%, and it was achieved at initial temperature of 286.03 K, concentration of Mn/IH at 951.11 mg/l and 35.75 min of reaction. The results showed that the temperature had the most significant effect on SO2 oxidation compared with the other two variables.  相似文献

The occurrence of wet-snow avalanches is, in general, poorly understood. For 20 years (winters of 1975–1976 to 1994–1995), the avalanche activity has been observed in the Dischma valley near Davos (Eastern Swiss Alps). The study area comprises a large starting zone of north-easterly aspect (2,300 m a.s.l.) with several avalanche paths. We have analyzed the occurrence data in combination with meteorological and snowpack data collected at an elevation of 2,090 m a.s.l. During the 20-year observation period, almost 800 wet-snow avalanches were observed, about 4.5 times more loose snow avalanches than slab avalanches. Considering both types of avalanches jointly, snow depth, precipitation and air temperature showed the highest correlation with avalanche activity. Most loose snow avalanches occurred when air temperature was high and/or after a precipitation period. Slab avalanches occurrence was primarily related to warm air temperatures and snowpack properties such as the isothermal state and the existence of capillary barriers. Radiation did not show up as a significant variable. The results suggest that in a transitional snow climate wet-snow avalanches are, as dry snow avalanches, often related to precipitation events, and that wet slab instability strongly depends on snowpack properties in relation to warming of the snowpack and melt water production.  相似文献

The Salt Water Intrusion Meetings, or SWIMs, are a series of meetings that focus on seawater intrusion in coastal aquifers and other salinisation processes. 2018 marks the 50th year of the SWIM and the 25th biennial meeting. The SWIM proceedings record half a century of research progress on site characterisation, geophysical and geochemical techniques, variable-density flow, modelling, and water management. The SWIM is positioning itself to remain a viable platform for discussing the coastal aquifer management challenges of the next 50 years.  相似文献

A great deal of early-to-mid Early Cretaceous magmatic activities have been recorded in the Zhalantun area of Inner Mongolia,while the late Early to Late Cretaceous magmatic rocks have been barely reported(Guo et al.,2018;Zhang Xiangxin et al.,2017).At present,only a few Late Cretaceous magmatic activities were reported in the Arongqi area,such as volcanic rocks of the Gushanzhen Formation.However,the Gushanzhen Formation lacks accurate isotopic age,and contemporaneous intrusive rocks has not been reported yet.In this work,we collected the volcanic rocks from the Gushanzhen Formation and contemporaneous intrusive rocks in the Zhanlantun and nearby,and aim to figure out the formation ages of volcanic rocks of the Gushanzhen Formation and accompanied intrusive rocks by analyzing zircon U-Pb isotopes(Fig.1).  相似文献

Mg-rich and Fe-rich metatholeiites intruded the Willyama Supergroup of the southern Australian Curnamona Province in the Late Palaeoproterozoic at ca 1700 Ma and 1685 Ma, respectively. Intrusion of the Fe-rich metatholeiites occurred during a period of punctuated extension in the Willyama basin. Major-element concentrations are variable (SiO2 45.4 – 56.5 wt%; Fe2O3? 8.5 – 20.7; TiO2 0.46 – 2.52 wt%; Mg# 70.5 – 29.1) and, in conjunction with trace-element data, support near-closed-system fractionation of a mantle-derived melt with little or no replenishment. Fractionation produced progressively Fe-rich derivative melts. Crystallising phases were dominated by clinopyroxene and olivine, whereas Fe – (Ti) oxide crystallisation was hindered. Primitive mantle-normalised immobile trace elements are characterised by variable Th, Nb, Sr, P and Ti anomalies. Chondrite-normalised rare-earth element patterns for the most primitive, Mg-rich samples from the western Broken Hill Domain have LaN/SmN < 1, whereas the most evolved Fe-rich samples from the Olary Domain have ratios of LaN/SmN > 1. Initial εNd values range between – 2.2 and + 2.7 for the majority of the samples, with the isotopic compositions showing no correlation with differentiation or assimilation. The combined geochemical and isotopic data suggest that the southern Curnamona Province metatholeiites were extracted from a depleted mantle in the western Broken Hill Domain, and a variably enriched, heterogeneous subcontinental lithospheric mantle in the Olary Domain. Magmatism most likely occurred in a backarc basin or intracontinental setting. It is speculated that the geochemically enriched mantle component was derived from subduction-related processes, probably related to pre-Willyama basin accretionary processes along the southern and eastern margins of the North Australian Craton.  相似文献

The thermo-elastic behaviour of Be2BO3(OH)0.96F0.04 (i.e. natural hambergite, Z = 8, a = 9.7564(1), b = 12.1980(2), c = 4.4300(1) Å, V = 527.21(1) Å3, space group Pbca) has been investigated up to 7 GPa (at 298 K) and up to 1,100 K (at 0.0001 GPa) by means of in situ single-crystal X-ray diffraction and synchrotron powder diffraction, respectively. No phase transition or anomalous elastic behaviour has been observed within the pressure range investigated. P?V data fitted to a third-order Birch–Murnaghan equation of state give: V 0 = 528.89(4) Å3, K T0 = 67.0(4) GPa and K′ = 5.4(1). The evolution of the lattice parameters with pressure is significantly anisotropic, being: K T0(a):K T0(b):K T0(c) = 1:1.13:3.67. The high-temperature experiment shows evidence of structure breakdown at T > 973 K, with a significant increase in the full-width-at-half-maximum of all the Bragg peaks and an anomalous increase in the background of the diffraction pattern. The diffraction pattern was indexable up to 1,098 K. No new crystalline phase was observed up to 1,270 K. The diffraction data collected at room-T after the high-temperature experiment showed that the crystallinity was irreversibly compromised. The evolution of axial and volume thermal expansion coefficient, α, with T was described by the polynomial function: α(T) = α 0 + α 1 T ?1/2. The refined parameters for Be2BO3(OH)0.96F0.04 are: α 0 = 7.1(1) × 10?5 K?1 and α 1 = ?8.9(2) × 10?4 K ?1/2 for the unit-cell volume, α 0(a) = 1.52(9) × 10?5 K?1 and α 1(a) = ?1.4(2) × 10?4 K ?1/2 for the a-axis, α 0(b) = 4.4(1) × 10?5 K?1 and α 1(b) = ?5.9(3) × 10?4 K ?1/2 for the b-axis, α 0(c) = 1.07(8) × 10?5 K?1 and α 1(c) = ?1.5(2) × 10?4 K ?1/2 for the c-axis. The thermo-elastic anisotropy can be described, at a first approximation, by α 0(a):α 0(b):α 0(c) = 1.42:4.11:1. The main deformation mechanisms in response to the applied temperature, based on Rietveld structure refinement, are discussed.  相似文献

This paper describes two new approaches that can be used to compute the two-dimensional experimental wavelet variogram. They are based on an extension from earlier work in one dimension. The methods are powerful 2D generalizations of the 1D variogram that use one- and two-dimensional filters to remove different types of trend present in the data and to provide information on the underlying variation simultaneously. In particular, the two-dimensional filtering method is effective in removing polynomial trend with filters having a simple structure. These methods are tested with simulated fields and microrelief data, and generate results similar to those of the ordinary method of moments variogram. Furthermore, from a filtering point of view, the variogram can be viewed in terms of a convolution of the data with a filter, which is computed fast in O(NLogN) number of operations in the frequency domain. We can also generate images of the filtered data corresponding to the nugget effect, sill and range of the variogram. This in turn provides additional tools to analyze the data further.  相似文献

It is common practice in compositional data analysis to perform the log-ratio transformation in order to preserve sub-compositional coherence in the analysis. Correspondence analysis is an alternative approach to analyzing ratio-scale data and is often contrasted with log-ratio analysis. It turns out that if one introduces a power transformation into the correspondence analysis algorithm, then the limit of the power-transformed correspondence analysis, as the power parameter tends to zero, is exactly the log-ratio analysis. Depending on how the power transformation is applied, we can obtain as limiting cases either Aitchison’s unweighted log-ratio analysis or the weighted form called “spectral mapping”. The upshot of this is that one can come as close as one likes to the log-ratio analysis, weighted or unweighted, using correspondence analysis.  相似文献

Three dimensional (3D) photorealistic models of geological outcrops have the potential to enhance the teaching of earth sciences by providing scale models in a virtual reality environment. These models can be run on low-cost desktop computers. Photorealistic models for geological outcrops are a digital illustration of outcrop photographs with either a point cloud representation or Triangular Irregular Network (TIN) mesh of the outcrop surface. The level of detail for these models is dependent on the target resolutions (physical and optical) that were used during data acquisition. In addition, the technique in which the data is rendered as a digital model affects the level of detail that can be observed by the geologists. A colored point cloud representation is suitable for large-scale features, but fine details are lost when the geologist zooms in to view the model close up. In contrast, a photorealistic model that is constructed from photographs draped onto a triangle mesh surface derived from Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) point clouds provides a level of detail that is restricted only by the resolution of the photographs.  相似文献
