Airborne particulate samples (including dust storm period samples) were collected from the Putuo, Qingpu and Minhang districts of Shanghai city from October, 2009 to October, 2010, and also tracked the dust transporting pathways from NW (Northwest) to SE (Southeast) including the cities of Xi’an, Beijing, Zhengzhou and Nantong, as a means of sampling the dust storm particulate matter in the spring of 2010. After measuring the magnetic parameters and the concentrations of particles and heavy metals, their magnetic properties were analyzed to track the source locations of heavy metal pollution during dust storm events, and then combined for backward trajectory analysis. It was found that the slightly polluted dust particles carried many contaminants during dust storm periods when the dust palls were transported by winter monsoon winds from the NW desert region towards the SE. The contaminants were further increased by contributions of fine SP&SD grains derived from local automobile exhausts in Shanghai as well as being enriched also in Northern cities during non-dust storm periods. A significantly positive linear relation was found between the χlf and SIRM of loess and the storm dust, indicating a similar material source for these two kinds of samples. A higher χlf and SIRM in storm dust content compared to loess suggests that storm dust contains not only materials from natural sources, but also those from partly anthropogenic sources. Backward trajectory analysis indicates intuitively the source region of the Shanghai storm dust. These conclusions have important scientific significance for research on long-distance transportation of contaminants (such as heavy metals) adsorbed onto airborne particulate matter during dust storm events. 相似文献

The cation distribution in the synthetic samples of olivine-type structure with composition (Fe x Mn1?x )2SiO4 was determined at room temperature and confirms previous Mössbauer results. At low temperature an antiferromagnetic ordering is observed. The magnetic structures can be described in the crystallographic cell (i.e. k=0). They are interpreted on the basis of the irreducible representations (modes) of the symmetry groups which are compatible with Pnma. The dominant modes observed for all compounds, including Fe2SiO4 and Mn2SiO4, only differ in their direction. The main direction of magnetization is dominated by the Fe2+ single-ion anisotropy. At 4.2K, for x=0.29, it is parallel to the c-axis, whereas for x=0.76 the direction is parallel to the b-axis. The anisotropy of the M1-sites dominates in the first case, whereas M2-anisotropy dominates in the second case. The influence of temperature is demonstrated for x=0.50 where c is the main direction at 4.2K, when it is b at 38K. 相似文献

High pressure Ca2SiO4, the silicate K2NiF4-isotype with crystalchemical and geophysical implications
Lin-gun Liu 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1978,3(3):291-299
The first silicate possessing a K2NiF4-type structure (Ca2SiO4) has been synthesized at loading pressures between 220 and 260 kbar and a temperature of about 1000° C in a diamond-anvil press coupled with a YAG laser heater. The lattice parameters for Ca2SiO4 (K2NiF4-type) area=3.564±0.002 andc=11.66±0.01 Å at room temperature and 1 bar pressure, and the molar volume is 44.57±0.05 cm3. The lattice parameter for the non-quenchable high-pressure perovskite modification of CaSiO3 is estimated to be 3.56±0.03 Å at STP conditions. To date, A2BX4 compounds possessing the K2NiF4-type structure arein all cases less dense than their corresponding mixtures of ABX3 and AX compounds possessing, respectively, the perovskite (or related structures) and rocksalt structures. Hence the K2NiF4 structure is unstable relative to the mixture perovskite plus rocksalt at high pressures. For example, in a preliminary experimental study Ca2GeO4 in the K2NiF4-type structure has been found to transform to an as-yet-undetermined phase or assemblage at pressures between 200 and 250 kbar and at about 1000° C. It is concluded that a similar phase transformation might also occur in Ca2SiO4 (K2NiF4 type) but that the K2NiF4-type structure would not be adopted by Mg2SiO4 in the earth's mantle. 相似文献

Single crystals of ferromagnesian orthosilicates with modified spinel (β) and spinel (γ) structure as large as 500 μm have been grown by solid state crystallization at high temperature and high pressure using an MA8-type apparatus driven in a 2,000-ton uniaxial press. This system is capable of generating pressures of 24.0 (±0.3) GPa at 2,400 (±50)°C for one hour in a sample assembly volume of 0.14 cm3. Crystals larger than 100 μm were observed to grow only at pressures within 5 percent of the phase boundary between the stability fields of the β and γ phases. Experimental determination of the phase boundaries between β or β+γ and γ phases for (Mg,Fe)2SiO4 has been extended to 22 GPa and 2,400°C. The effect of configurational entropy due to disordering is evaluated to be minimal on the basis of the cationic distribution in the synthesized samples; thus, we conclude that the phase boundary between β or β+γ and γ phases remains essentially linear to 2,400°C. In (Mg,Fe)2SiO4 solid solutions, the stability field of the γ phase shifts towards the lower pressures with increasing iron content at a rate of a 1 GPa for each 10 mole percent Fe. Assignment of the β→β+γ→γ transition to the seismic 550 km discontinuity is rejected by the present phase diagram results for (Mg0.9Fe0.1)2SiO4 and measurement of acoustic velocities for β and γ Mg2SiO4, but the discontinuity may be caused by a phase transition of pyroxene to a garnet-like structure. 相似文献

The first results of study of stability of diverse polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons at around 7 GPa and 773–1073 K are reported. Experiments were carried out in hydraulic multi-anvil presses. The run products after quenching were analyzed using a method of matrix-assisted laser desorption-ionization (MALDI). The formation of polymers of starting matters was determined at 7 GPa and 773–883 K. The polymers are characterized by atomic masses up to 5000 Da, that are multiple by masses of starting matters. At higher temperatures (873–1073 K), the selected PAHs and their polymers become unstable. The decomposition temperature of PAHs and their polymers exclude their stability under Earth’s mantle conditions. The studies could be of great significance for the low-temperature near-surface geodynamics of small and large planetary bodies, which supposedly contain hydrocarbon compounds. 相似文献

The geomagnetic storm of November 1998 is a unique event where IMF-Bz remained southward with values exceeding –15 nT for more than a day. The SYM/H index decreased from about 07 hr on 13 November 1998 reaching a minimum of about –120 nT around midnight of 13–14 November 1998. Features of the equatorial electrojet in the Indian region are studied during the geomagnetic storm event of 13–14 November 1998, based on the geomagnetic data from the chain of observatories in India. Sudden northward turning of IMF-Bz for a very short duration around 08 hr on 13 November 1998 resulted in a small and very short duration counter electrojet. A strong (–50 nT) and a long duration counter electrojet, right from 08 to 13 hr on 14 November 1998 was observed resulting in the absence of equatorial Es at Thumba. Absence of the equatorial ionization anomaly was also observed as seen from the ionograms over Thumba and ionspheric data from Ahmedabad. The delayed effect on 14 November 1998 is due to the disturbance dynamo effect. 相似文献

In the present study, the enrichment, availability, speciation of heavy metals including Pb, Zn, Cu, Cd, Ni and Sb and magnetic properties of urban soils of Xuzhou (China) were investigated. All analyzed metals showed elevated concentrations compared to local background concentrations. Cadmium and Sb are the metals most enriched in the analyzed area, presenting enrichment factor, on average, of 16.5 and 8.3, respectively. By self-organizing map in combination with diagnostic ratios, the source of Sb, Cd, Cu and Pb in soils might be mainly from traffic emissions. Sequential extractions indicate that metals were primarily associated with the reducible fraction with the exception of Ni. The order of extraction efficiency of various metals was SBET (simplified physiologically based extraction test) > DTPA (diethylenetriaminepentaacetic acid) > CaCl2. The magnetic results show that soil samples were dominated by a strong ferrimagnetic mineral component with multi- and single-domain magnetic grains. Only CaCl2 extractable Sb was found to show significant correlations with χlf and SIRM. For both DTPA and SBET extractions, all metals investigated showed significant associations with both χlf and SIRM (saturation isothermal remanent magnetization). 相似文献

Specimens of a free-living copepod, Cyclops bicuspidatus thomasi, were found attached to striped bass and white perch larvae collected in the Chesapeake and Delaware Canal and adjacent waters. Damage to most of the larvae was constriction of tissue around the point of attachment, but some exhibited more severe damage such as missing parts of the finfold or a ruptured yolk sac. Most of the larvae had damage which was extensive enough to have caused death. 相似文献

Polarized single-crystal absorption and reflection spectra of fundamental modes in both the mid- and far-infrared are presented for microscopic crystals of forsterite and fayalite. All modes predicted by symmetry were observed for forsterite, but two B3u modes were not observed for fayalite. Consideration of previously determined frequency shifts for isotopically and chemically substituted olivines, along with symmetry analysis, produced a complete set of band assignments satisfying all constraints for forsterite. A plausible assingment was derived for fayalite by analogy. The frequency shifts from forsterite to fayalite are consistently small for bands assigned to SiO4 stretching and bending, moderate for rotations, and large for translations of M-site ions, suggesting that in olivine, SiO4 groups vibrate separately from the lattice. Allocating the bending and external modes among multiple continua in Kieffer's (1979c) model considerably improves prediction of quasiharmonic heat capacityC v and entropy for forsterite (～1% discrepancy from 200–1000 K). The experimental entropy of fayalite is closely accounted for (1.8 to 0.1%) by summing lattice, electronic (from Burns' (1985) optical band assignment), and constant magnetic contributions above 200 K.S magnetic determined from the difference of the experimental and model lattice entropies shows inflection points at the two magnetic transition temperatures (23 and 66 K) and indicates that complete spin disorder is not achieved below 680 K. 相似文献

This research provides an overview and discussion of language used in tornado safety recommendations along with development of a rubric for scaled tornado safety recommendations. Residents living in affected areas and those temporarily housed at relief stations were surveyed to collect information on their experiences during a 2-week period following the April 27, 2011 Tuscaloosa, Alabama EF4 tornado. Respondents were asked about their refuge plans during the storm and about any future changes to those plans. A specific focus of this research evaluated the adequacy of each respondent’s plan. Each refuge plan was compared using a tornado refuge rubric developed through the use of enhanced Fujita (EF) scale degree of damage ratings for available damage indicators. There was a significant difference in the counts of refuge adequacy for Tuscaloosa residents when holding the locations during the April 27 tornado constant and comparing adequacy ratings for weak (EF0–EF1), strong (EF2–EF3), and violent (EF4–EF5) tornadoes. There was also a significant difference when comparing the future tornado refuge plans of those same participants to the adequacy ratings for weak, strong, and violent tornadoes. This research introduces renewed discussion on proper refuge and shelter alternatives for days when violent tornadoes are forecasted. 相似文献

Cyclostratigraphy of Pontian deposits of the Eastern Paratethys (Zheleznyi Rog section,Taman Region)
The first data on the cyclostratigraphy of Pontian deposits of the Eastern Paratethys were obtained by studying the magnetic susceptibility of Upper Miocene rocks of the Zheleznyi Rog section in the Taman Region. Based on statistical methods, using the Lomb-Scargle and REDFIT periodograms, cycles related to long-period insolation oscillations (precession of the Earth’s orbit and variations in Earth’s axial tilt) were revealed. It is proposed that a hiatus occurred (about 150000–200000 years) at the Novorossian/Portaferian boundary (Lower Pontian/Upper Pontian) due to the onset of the maximum Messinian Salinity Crisis. 相似文献

Subsidence has been affecting many cities around the world, such as Nagoya (Japan), Venice (Italy), San Joaquin Valley and Long Beach (California), and Houston (Texas). This phenomenon can be caused by natural processes and/or human activities, including but not limited to carbonate dissolution, extraction of material from mines, soil compaction, and fluid withdrawal. Surface deformation has been an ongoing problem in the Houston Metropolitan area because of the city’s location in a passive margin where faulting and subsidence are common. Most of the previous studies attributed the causes of the surface deformation to four major mechanisms: faulting, soil compaction, salt tectonics, and fluid withdrawal (groundwater withdrawal and hydrocarbon extraction). This work assessed the surface deformation in the greater Houston area and their possible relationship with fluid withdrawal. To achieve this goal, data from three complimentary remote sensing techniques Global Positioning System (GPS), Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR), and Interferometric Synthetic Aperture Radar were used. GPS rates for the last 17 years show a change in surface deformation patterns. High rates of subsidence in the northwestern areas (up to ~4 cm/year) and signs of uplift in the southeast are observed (up to 2 mm\year). High rates of subsidence appear to be decreasing. Contrary to previous studies in which the location of subsidence appeared to be expanding toward the northwest, current results show that the area of subsidence is shrinking and migrating toward the northeast. Digital elevation model generated from airborne LiDAR, revealed changes between salt domes and their surrounding areas. The persistent scatterer interferometry was performed using twenty-five (25) European remote sensing-1/2 scenes. Rates of change in groundwater level and hydrocarbon production were calculated using data from 261 observation wells and 658 hydrocarbon wells. A water level decline of 4 m/year was found in area of highest subsidence, this area also show ~70 million m3/year of hydrocarbon extraction. This study found strong correlation between fluid withdrawals and subsidence. Therefore, both groundwater and hydrocarbon withdrawal in northwest Harris County are considered to be the major drivers of the surface deformation. 相似文献

The present work reports on the isotopic characterization of rainfall and groundwater at Mt. Vesuvius. Values of δ 18O, monthly measured on rain samples collected during the period 2002–2004 in a rain-gauge network composed of 10 stations, were compared with meteorological and DEM data. Air temperature, controlled by the local orographic structure, was identified as the main factor influencing rain isotopic composition. Another important role is played by orographic clouds, whose condensation over the top of Mt. Vesuvius is responsible for anomalously high δ 18O values recorded in rain samples from the summit area of the volcanic edifice. A spatial model of rain isotopic composition, based on a 3D distribution of temperature derived by a 1 × 1 km DEM, was implemented and used for calculating the theoretical isotopic signature of seepage, further compared with data measured in the groundwater monitoring network. The analysis evidenced the role of local meteoric recharge as the main source feeding Mt. Vesuvius aquifers. The unique exception is the Olivella drainage gallery, located on the north-eastern flank of the volcanic edifice, whose isotopic composition is slightly more positive than the one expected for its altitude, likely caused by both evaporation processes and mixing with condensed hydrothermal vapor. 相似文献

The history of climate change and related driving mechanisms of the Gonghe Basin, northeastern Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau, China, was reconstructed in the Holocene epoch, based on the comprehensive analysis of multi-proxies consisting of magnetic susceptibility, grain size, and geochemical elements from eolian and peat deposits at different altitudes. The results indicate that Holocene climate change at different altitudes is both consistent and different: a synchronous record of an increased warm–humid phase (10.0–8.5 ka) and a cold phase around 8.2 ka in the Early Holocene; an optimal warm–humid condition in marginal mountains of the Gonghe Basin in the Mid-Holocene; and a gradual decline in temperature and humidity in the Late Holocene. The Gonghe Basin interior in the Mid-Holocene was relatively arid, with increased moisture in the Late Holocene. On this basis, we compared our results to the paleoclimatic record in the low-latitude Asian monsoonal region, which indicates that, in addition to the Asian summer monsoonal strength having influenced regional climate change, the upward and subsidence motion of airflow over the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau induced by topographic conditions, evaporation, and the feedback effect by the substrate was also influential. The latter was especially important for spatial–temporal differences in Middle and Late Holocene climatic changes at different altitudes. 相似文献

The decomposition of fayalite (Fe2SiO4) in oxygen potential gradients is studied at T=1,418 K. The compound will be decomposed into its component oxides wüstite, Fe1?δO, and silica, SiO2, by the simultaneous action of two different oxygen partial pressures, exceeding a critical ratio, despite the fact that fayalite is stable at both the lower and the higher oxygen potential. A quantitative analysis of the decomposition process caused by defect fluxes within the bulk Fe2SiO4 is given. 相似文献

Molar elastic strain energy arising from dislocations in andalusite and sillimanite were calculated using equations derived from a non-core, linear elasticity model. For perfect (unit) c screw dislocations in these polymorphs, minimum dislocation densities of about 1010/cm2 are necessary to significantly perturb the andalusite=sillimanite equilibrium boundary in P-T space. Compared to unit c dislocations, smaller energy perturbations arise from dissociated c screw dislocations, which are commonly observed in kyanite and sillimanite. A low computed value of stacking fault energy (～30 ergs/cm2) in these polymorphs is compatible with the large separations of dissociated dislocations in these phases. Dislocation densities in naturally occurring Al2SiO5 polymorphs are typically <108/cm2. Assuming that these densities are representative of those existing during metamorphism, as is supported by the lack of microtextures indicative of strong recovery, it is concluded that molar strain energies corresponding to observed dislocation densities (<108/cm2) result in insignificant perturbation of P-T phase equilibrium boundaries of the Al2SiO5 polymorphs. 相似文献

The temperature tolerance and resistance times of postlarval (<25 mm SL) and small juvenile spot,Leiostomus xanthurus, from the Cape Fear Estuary, North Carolina were tested in the laboratory. Critical thermal maximum techniques were used to determine first equilibrium loss (FEL) and critical thermal maximum (CTM) end points and thermal shock methods were used to determine 96-h upper incipient lethal temperatures (LT50). Acclimation temperatures ranged from 10 to 35°C and acclimation salinities were 10, 20 and 30‰. A quadratics model was fit to the CTM and FEL data; r2 values were 0.924 and 0.928 respectively. Acclimation salinity, estimated weight, acclimation salinity by acclimation temperature interaction and acclimation temperature by estimated weight interaction were the significant components of the CTM model. Predicted CTM values ranged from 30°C at 10 °C and 30‰ acclimation to just over 40°C at 30 °C and 30‰ acclimation. Acclimation temperature, acclimation temperature squared, estimated weight and acclimation temperatures by estimated weight interaction were the significant components of the FEL model. Predicted FEL values ranged from around 28°C at 10°C and 10‰ acclimation to about 39°C at 30°C and 30‰ acclimation. The 96-h LT50 values of spot acclimated to 20‰ increased linearly with acclimation temperature to 25°C. From about 25 to 35°C, LT50 values increased very little with acclimation temperature. The ultimate upper incipient lethal temperature of postlarval and small juvenile spot was estimated at 35.2°C. Increased salinity increased resistance time but decreased LT50 estimates. Thermal shock tests were better for predicting the effects of thermal addition than were CTM tests. 相似文献

The far infrared powder absorption spectra (10–200 cm?1) for a maximum microcline sample (obtained by ion-exchange from Amelia albite) and for a natural maximum microcline were measured at steps of 10 K on lowering and raising the temperature between 300 and 110 K. Of the absorption bands at 97.5, 113.5, 137.5, 148, and 157 cm?1 occurring at room temperature, those at 157 and eventually 148 cm?1 showed evidence of a phase transition and only that at 157 cm?1 showed hysteresis. The transition occurs at 245±5 K on lowering the temperature and the low-temperature form can be superheated to 300 K in the case of the ion-exchange sample. Oriented thin sections parallel to (001) and (010) were also measured to 110 K as a function of the direction of the electric vector E, but could not be unambiguously interpreted. Though the effect is very slight it is tentatively proposed that the phase transition (already characterized by calorimetry and lattice parameters) involves changes in K-O and T-O-T bonds. 相似文献

Detectable ionization effects in the ionosphericD-region from individual, strong and steady x-ray sources such as Sco X-1 and transient x-ray sources such as Cet X-2 have been reported by us and many others previously based on the field strength and phase variations of the VLF data. As a follow up to these investigations, we have examined the integrated effects of many of the known x-ray sources discovered by UHURU, ANS, Ariel V and SAS-3 satellites, in order to understand the totality of their effects. These effects are examined in the present paper for 0° and +38° geographic latitudes corresponding to midnight conditions and for different times of the year. Such effects are compared, in turn, with those of the known steady sources responsible forD-region ionization such as Lyman-alpha and galactic cosmic radiations. The results are presented as profiles of electron production rates as a function of height. Our study leads to the conclusion that there should be detectable annual variations of the electron density which are pronounced around May-August. Further, the results of the computations on electron production rates corresponding to the spectacular x-ray nova A0620-00 are also included in the present paper. 相似文献

The Earth's stress field is composed of 4 sub-fields that are induced by
- the gravitational force (impacts, etc; geodynamic theories on the expansion or contraction of the globe);
- the centrifugal force of the spinning Earth (models on continental drift explaining the equatorial Alpine-Himalayan collisional mountain belt and longitudinally orientated rifts or oceans);
- thermal convection (plate tectonic model);
- tidal forces (extended plate tectonic model).
