The first trans-Saharan epicontinental transgression began in the Late Cenomanian and peaked in the Early Turonian. The sea entered through rifts (Nigeria) and subsiding areas (north Africa) and, at maximum extent, spilled out onto stable craton. The central Sahara was land in late Early Turonian time; the sea seems to have remained in the central part of the Benue rift, to sally forth again during the minor Coniacian transgressive pulse. The Coniacian transgression went no further than eastern and central Niger Republic. For a short time during the Cenomanian-Turonian link-up between the Tethys and the South Atlantic, some organisms (mainly ammonites and pelecypods) passed across the Sahara. The Coniacian marine deposits of eastern Niger contain several elements typical of the Mungo River Formation of Cameroun, and coastal Nigeria. These faunistic indications imply that the topographical obstacle formed by the Zambuk ridge of northeastern Nigeria was swamped at maximum transgression. A third, very extensive epicontinental transgression began in latest Campanian time and reached its acme in the Early Maastrichtian. In the central Sahara, at least, there was a retreat of the sea in later Maastrichtian times. A final transgression peaked during the Paleocene, after which the sea withdrew permanently from the northwest African hinterland. The same marine ostracod associations occur in the Paleocene of coastal Nigeria, the Sokoto embayment, Mali and Libya, thus providing strong evidence of a marine connexion, albeit brief, between the South Atlantic and the Tethys, despite the lack of outcrop evidence in the crucial Niger valley region.  相似文献

Planning versus youth: Stamping out spatial unruliness in Harare   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Amin Y. Kamete   《Geoforum》2008,39(5):1721-1733
The paper examines the illegal occupation and use of urban spaces by Harare’s youth and the ensuing tussles with the repressive machinery of the local authority and the nation-state. It analyses efforts by planning to contain rampant spatial unruliness. The paper maps the patterns of official hostile responses to the illegal activities of the youth whose daily routines inevitably entail the disregard of the spatial planning framework as reflected in existing legal and regulatory controls. The analysis reveals the reliance by the urban planning and management system on the use of force and violence, a feat made possible by the mobilisation of the repressive state apparatus. The discussion argues that what comes out in the relationship between the order-imposing planning system and the regulation-flouting youth is a situation that can largely be comprehended by turning to the non-progressive side of planning.  相似文献

This paper explores the inherent contradiction and conceptual conflict that arises when sacred sites are marketed as secular for the purpose of promoting tourism. The question of conflict is further frustrated within the context of Israel’s contested religious landscape and Israeli policy. Using a Lefebvrian framework, the historical development of the Bahai Gardens in Haifa, Israel, the tourism board’s promotion of the site as Haifa’s primary tourist designation, and the distinct spatial practices that have been used by both constituencies are investigated. Further, the authors posit that the Bahai Gardens are multi-dimensional spaces characterized by two different socio-spatial processes and practices that co-exist—the tourist’s and the pilgrim’s. These practices transform the holy site into a secular shared community asset. The paper concludes with a discussion of the socio-spatial implications of the case and its broader implications concerning the globalization of tourism and the efficacy of developing “layered” Lefebvrian triad to try and avoid conflict.  相似文献

The post-glacial environmental history of Voua de la Motte, a small pond, was studied by the lipid geochemistry of a 6 m long core. Palynological studies show that the deepest part of the core goes back to 10,000 yr BP corresponding to the time of formation of the lake following the retreat of the Rhodanian glacier. Hydrocarbons, aldehydes, linear alcohols, sterols, monocarboxylic and monohydroxy fatty acids, were determined throughout the core both in the free and bound lipid fractions, as well as in the tightly bound fraction for the carboxylic acids. There is no clear evidence of a transformation from the unbound to the bound form, except perhaps for the α-hydroxy acids.Qualitative as well as quantitative fluctuations in the distributions of these lipid classes were observed upward in the core. An attempt is made to correlate these fluctuations with the bioenvironmental and climatological evolution of the Basin on the basis of information obtained from palynology.  相似文献

A Barremian microflora is recorded in the terrigenous facies (Weald) of the Lower Cretaceous in the northern region of the Province of Valencia (Spain), these beds have been poorly dated up to now due to the absence of fossils. The Villar del Arzobispo microflora correspond unquestionably to the Barremian-Aptien period, but the numerical importance of derived forms from the Jurassic, the remarkable variety of forms of Cicatricosisporites, and the rareness of pollen of Angiosperms, indicate a Barremian age to be more likely.This discovery permits us to establish the stratigraphical relationship of this terrigenousfacies of Villar del Arzobispo with the dated “Weald” of other areas of the Iberian Chain and to give a complete chrono-stratigraphical interpretation to the different litho-stratigraphical units that constitute the Lower Cretaceous of this region.  相似文献

The explanation normally given for the tectonics of Sainte-Victoire Mountain, a dozen kilometres east of Aix-en-Provence, to the north of the limestone Provence, is incorrect. To the east, the morphology of the Sainte-Victoire is subdued, whereas to the west, before the mountain breaks savagely, the morphology is that of a young mountain as appears in Alpine landscapes. This unusual aspect in the region and the large subvertical faults with vertically striated surfaces that mark the massif to the south and to the west, induce the idea of strong vertical uplifts and caste doubt on the tectonic interpretation given in 1962 by Corroy et al. According to those authors, the Sainte-Victoire is a unit of Jurassic and Cretaceous formations overthrusting 1800 m to the south conglomerates of the Late Cretaceous or Palaeocene. New observations about the conglomerate transgression over the Jurassic and Cretaceous beds, and about the faults around and on the massif do not give evidence of an overthrusting but, on the contrary, induce the idea of a uplift, perhaps still active, in the form of a ‘piano key’ inclined to the northeast.

This study of the Pontet mine aimed at updating the understanding of ore-structural geology setting and, in terms of archaeology, at pointing out how the geometry of structures influenced the medieval workings and the shape of the galleries. The mineralisation and the WNW–ESE dextral normal faults controlling its emplacement are assigned to the Eocene by analogy with the neighbouring La Gardette structure. This confirms the Late Eocene to Oligocene age classically proposed for Phase 1 and places it in the Eocene. The Prégentil-type P1 folds described by Lameyre (1958) are here attributed to Phase 1, which raises the question as to whether the contemporaneous tectonic uplift of the crystalline basement should also be assigned to Phase 1 rather than to Phase 2.

二叠纪末期发生的显生宙以来最大的生物绝灭事件,使海洋生态系统和陆地生态系统均受到重创之后,微生物岩广泛分布于全球正常浅海地区。研究认为,扬子地台在二叠纪末期存在一次海平面降低的事件,造成研究区二叠纪地层与早三叠世微生物岩之间存在沉积间断或剥蚀,并使三叠纪牙形石混入二叠纪末期的沉积物中。二叠-三叠系界线位于微生物岩层的底界;微生物岩形成于早三叠世最早期,相当于Hindeodus parvus带,是早三叠世最早期开始的海侵事件为其提供生长所需的可容纳空间。在Isarcicella staeschei带-I. isarcica带早期再次发生相对海平面降低事件,之后海平面开始快速上升。研究区早三叠世早期的微生物岩以凝块构造发育为特征,具有斑状、层状、枝状和网状凝块构造4种典型中型构造。结合前人的工作,认为微生物群落通过生物沉积和物理沉积作用形成球状体,球状体汇聚形成不同的中型凝块构造。研究扬子地台早三叠世凝块石的确切时代和结构、构造类型特征,为准确恢复生物大灭绝事件前后的环境变迁以及生物演化事件与环境变化的相互作用关系提供重要的证据。  相似文献

The positioning of the Turonian/Senonian boundary has been highly discussed since the introduction of the Senonian stage by d'Orbigny. In England the Early Senonian is conventionally represented by white chalks at the base of the Micraster cortestudinarium zone which to some has meant the top surface on the Top Rock or Navigation Hardgrounds. New macro- and microfaunal data on the Sussex White Chalk of Southern England, while providing a suitable framework for the comparison between the microfaunal zonation of the Paris basin chalks and macro- and microfaunal zonations commonly used in England, emphasize the positioning of the Turonian/Senonian boundary in the Anglo-Paris basin. This boundary falls within the interval Chalk Rock/Top Rock and is outlined by distinct changes in Micraster lineage (appearance of M. normanniae) and in benthic foraminiferal associations.  相似文献

提出了一种针对自流型渠道输水的最优化控制的两步法。第一步是控制各闸站流量使渠段水位(或蓄水量)达到目标水位(或蓄水量),第二步是调整流量使渠段水位稳定。建立了使渠道内水流在最短时间内恢复到正常运行水位的最优渠道输水控制模型。构建了长距离渠道输水控制的一系列约束条件,包括渠道下游需水量约束、最高控制水位、水位最大容许下降速度、渠道容许过流能力、最少的开机次数等。提出了利用线性规划或将大系统分解为若干子系统求解的方法。算例结果表明,用传统的渠道控制方法需要几天才能使水位恢复到目标水位的渠道,用本优化方法控制,可以在几小时内使渠道水位达到目标水位并达到稳定。  相似文献

This paper summarizes the results of long-term geological, petrological, and geochemical investigations of the Mesozoic-Cenozoic complexes of the Stanovoy Range in order to determine the main reasons for their generation and evolution. The analysis of this material showed that the compositionally variable Late Mesozoic igneous complexes of the Stanovoy Range were formed in various depth facies, from abyssal to surficial. The majority of their salic complexes show minor compositional variations, whereas the mafic complexes are more variable, especially in the southeast of the region. The southeastern Stanovoy Range comprises comparable amounts of both subalkaline and low-alkali igneous rocks, whereas the central part is dominated by subalkaline rocks, and the northwestern part contains rocks only of the shoshonite-latite series. This zoning is fundamentally different from that of typical island arcs, which are characterized by the occurrence of volcanic rocks of similar alkalinity in each zone. Extrusive and intrusive rocks with similar alkali and silica contents (and schlieren-like inclusions in the granitoids of the region) were formed from common magmas of corresponding chemical compositions. In addition, the mafic and most of the salic magmas were formed as independent melting products, whereas the magmas of intermediate composition were formed mainly by mixing of chemically contrasting liquids (i.e., salic and basic). It was shown that the available information on the magmatism of the region is best interpreted in terms of the model of mantle diapirism. In particular, mantle diapirs ascended rather slowly during the Mesozoic and occurred over the whole territory of the Stanovoy Range during the Jurassic-Cretaceous stage (J3-K1), when alkaline and subalkaline basalts were formed. During the Early-Late Cretaceous stage, mantle diapirs produced alkali-poor basalts in the central and eastern parts. During the Cenozoic, the diapir ascended rather rapidly but only in a small area in the eastern part of the region forming alkali basalts. In contrast to the Cenozoic, the Earth’s crust was strongly affected by mantle diapirs and related mafic magmas in the Mesozoic. As a result, crustal sequences were reworked by fluids and subsequently yielded tremendous volumes of compositionally corresponding salic magmas, which interacted and mixed with mafic magmas producing the corresponding chemical zoning. The maximum generation of crustal magmas was confined to the axial zones of ascending diapirs, where the highest energy effects took place, whereas the role of autochthonous gneissic granites increased away from the axis at the expense of typical intrusive complexes.  相似文献

This paper presents a review of recent results concerning the structure and the rotation of the inner core, as inferred from seismological observations. We first focus on the apparent hemispherical pattern of the inner core structure, observed in both the anisotropy and the heterogeneity of the uppermost layers, whereas isotropic velocities seem to be homogeneous in a broad wavelength domain. Then we present results on the radial variations of the attenuation and its possible anisotropy, for which viscoelasticity and wave scattering provide complementary explanations. Linked to these results is a discussion about the detection of the PKJKP phase, which propagates as S-wave inside the inner core. Finally, the seismological observations of a possible inner core rotation are discussed; recent results seem to favour rotation rates below 0.2° yr?1.  相似文献

The penetration of rigid objects such as piles and penetrometers into soils creates a zone of soil disturbance around them. The extent of this disturbed zone influences the resistance of the moving rigid body. This paper presents a theoretical framework to analyze the resistance in the disturbed zone created by a shaft penetrating a clay soil. The soil is modeled as a viscous material after it reaches failure [critical state (CS)]. The results of this analysis show that the viscous drag stress component on the shaft surface is influenced by the size of disturbed zone that has reached CS around the shaft, the shear viscosity of the soil and the velocity profile (or strain rate) in the CS zone around the shaft. The size of CS zone, the velocity profile and the viscosity of soil are interdependent. Large variation in viscous drag occurs when the size of the CS soil zone is less than four times the shaft’s radius. Limiting drag occurs when the size of the CS soil zone exceeds six times the shaft’s radius. The theoretical velocity distribution of the movement of soil in the CS zone shows that the soil is dragged along with shaft in the near field (close to the shaft surface) and moves upwards in the far field.  相似文献

The microbiota of the upper Viséan (Asbian–Brigantian) rocks in the Lough Allen Basin in northwest Ireland is analysed. The Middle Mississippian sequence studied extends from the upper part of the Dartry Limestone/Bricklieve Limestone formations of the Tyrone Group to the Carraun Shale Formation of the Leitrim Group. The rocks have been traditionally dated by ammonoid faunas representing the B2a to P2c subzones. The Meenymore Formation (base of the Leitrim Group) also contains conodont faunas of the informal partial‐range Mestognathus bipluti zone. The upper Brigantian Lochriea nodosa Conodont Zone was recognized by previous authors in the middle of the Carraun Shale Formation (Ardvarney Limestone Member), where it coincides with upper Brigantian ammonoids of the Lusitanoceras granosus Subzone (P2a). Foraminifera and algae in the top of the Dartry Limestone Formation are assigned to the upper Cf6γ Foraminifera Subzone (highest Asbian), whereas those in the Meenymore Formation belong to the lower Cf6δ Foraminifera Subzone (lower Brigantian). The Dartry Limestone Formation–Meenymore Formation boundary is thus correlated with the Asbian–Brigantian boundary in northwest Ireland. For the first time, based on new data, a correlation between the ammonoid, miospore, foraminiferan and conodont zonal schemes is demonstrated. The foraminiferans and algae, conodonts and ammonoids are compared with those from other basins in Ireland, northern England, and the German Rhenish Massif. Historically, the Asbian–Brigantian boundary has been correlated with several levels within the P1a Ammonoid Subzone. However, the new integrated biostratigraphical data indicate that the Asbian–Brigantian boundary in northwest Ireland is probably located within the B2a Ammonoid Subzone and the NM Miospore Zone, but the scarcity of ammonoids in the Tyrone Group precludes an accurate placement of that boundary within this subzone.
