Wadsleyite II is a variably hydrous magnesium-iron silicate phase similar to spinelloid IV and a potential host for H in the Transition Zone of the Earths mantle. Two separate samples of wadsleyite II synthesized at 17.5 GPa and 1400°C and at 18 GPa and 1350°C have been characterized by electron microprobe, single-crystal X-ray diffraction, visible, IR, Raman, and Mössbauer spectroscopies, and transmission electron microscopy including electron energy-loss spectroscopy. The two samples have the following chemical formulae: Mg1.71Fe0.18Al0.01H0.33Si0.96O4 and Mg1.60Fe0.22Al0.01 H0.44Si0.97O4. Mössbauer spectroscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) indicate that about half of the iron present is ferric. Refinement of the structures shows them to be essentially the same as spinelloid IV. Calculated X-ray powder diffraction patterns show only subtle differences between wadsleyite and wadsleyite II. The hydration mechanism appears to be protonation of the non-silicate oxygen (O2) and possibly the oxygens surrounding the partially vacant tetrahedral site Si2, charge-balanced by cation vacancies in Si2, M5 and M6. The unit cell volume of this phase and its synthesis conditions indicate that it may be an intermediate phase occurring between the fields of wadsleyite and ringwoodite, if sufficient trivalent cations are available. The unit cell parameters have been refined at pressures up to 10.6 GPa by single-crystal X-ray diffraction in the diamond anvil cell. The refined bulk modulus for the sample containing 2.8 wt% H2O is 145.6 ± 2.8 GPa with a K of 6.1 ± 0.7. Similar to wadsleyite and ringwoodite, hydration has a large effect on the bulk modulus. The presence of this phase in the mantle could serve to obscure the seismic expression of the phase boundary between wadsleyite and ringwoodite near 525 km. The large apparent effect of hydration on bulk modulus is consistent with hydration having a larger effect on seismic velocities than temperature in the Transition Zone. 相似文献

The further development of Peyve’s concept of deep faults in the Earth’s crust and brittle part of the lithosphere is discussed. Three aspects are accentuated in this paper: (1) the modern definition of the term deep fault; (2) the parameters of deep faults as ruptures of the geological medium and three-dimensional, often boundary, geological bodies; and (3) reactivation of deep faults, including the development of this process in real time. Peyve’s idea of deep faults readily fitted into the concept of new global tectonics (plate tectonics). This was facilitated, first of all, by the extensive efforts made to elaborate Peyve’s ideas by a large group of researchers at the Geological Institute of the Russian Academy of Sciences (GIN RAS) and other scientists. At present, the term deep fault has been extended and transformed to cover three-dimensional geological bodies; the geological and geophysical properties and parameters of these bodies, as well as their reactivation (recurrent activation) in real time, have been studied. 相似文献

The compositions and phase conditions of water-hydrocarbon fluids in synthetic quartz inclusions were studied by the methods
of microthermometry, local IR spectroscopy, and gas-liquid chromatography. Synthetic quartz was grown in near-neutral fluoride,
low-alkali bicarbonate, and alkali carbonate solutions with crude oil and its major fractions. The crystals with fluid inclusions
were grown under thermal gradient conditions at relatively low temperatures (240–280°C) and pressures (6–45 MPa). After the
study, the inclusions of grown crystals were subject to thermal processing in autoclaves at 350–380°C and 80–125 MPa. As a
result, the initial water-hydrocarbon inclusions underwent significant changes. Hydrocarbon gases, largely methane and residual
solid bitumens, appeared in their composition; the gasoline-kerosene fraction content increased substantially in liquid hydrocarbons
(HCs). These changes are caused, first of all, by crude oil cracking, which is manifested already at 330°C and attains its
maximum activity at 350–500°C (pressure of saturated vapor and higher). In natural conditions with increase in depths and,
thus, the thermobaric parameters, this process is inevitable. According to the obtained experimental data, this very phenomenon
and the existence of real thermal and baric gradients in the Earth’s interior provide for the formation of vertical zoning
in the distribution of hydrocarbon deposits of different types. 相似文献

The knowledge from the compression behavior of densified SiO2 glass suggests that SiO2 melt may behave as a single phase having a densified network structure (intermediate-range order) at the pressure condition of the Earth’s deep upper mantle, including the transition zone. A simple and easy-to-use equation of state of silicate melts which is applicable to a wide range of chemical composition at the pressure condition of the deep upper mantle is proposed based on the assumption that SiO2 component is in its densified state (or phase). The equation of state proposed in this study is consistent with all the available density data of silicate melts with an SiO2 content of about 35–55 mol% measured with large-volume presses at pressures between 8 and 22 GPa. The equations of state in previous studies differ considerably from each other. The main reason for the discrepancies seems to be that the compression behavior of multiple states (or phases) of silicate melts has been described in most cases with a single equation of state. It is necessary to consider that silicate melts are in their densified states (or phases) in the deep upper mantle. 相似文献

The spatial relations between ore deposits in Sikhote-Alin and deep density inhomogeneities of the Earth??s crust down to a depth of 30 km have been examined. The ore areas and regions show a discrete correlation with the anomalies of the normalized density of the equivalent spherical sources of gravity anomalies at depths of 1 to 2, 4 to 5, 10?C12, and 24 km presumably provoked by magmatic bodies of different compositions. The depth of the magmatic bodies with the intermediate-to-basic composition of the initial magmas and the southeastward-decreasing vertical range of their correlation with the ore regions depend on their structural position. In the case of magmatic bodies of felsic and mixed compositions, the metallogenic specialization of the corresponding ore-magmatic systems is correlated with their inferred vertical range. Tin ore systems are characterized by a smaller vertical range (5?C10 km) of the correlation with density inhomogeneities, whereas tin-tungsten-gold ore systems are marked by a wider range (20?C25 km). Tin-lead-zinc systems occupy an intermediate position (12?C20 km). The ore-controlling role of the boundaries between the lithostructural complexes of the Earth??s crust and the central-type structures in the distribution of deep sources of ore mineralization is shown. 相似文献

The paper reports results of the analysis of the spatial distribution of modern (younger than 2 Ma) volcanism in the Earth’s
northern hemisphere and relations between this volcanism and the evolution of the North Pangaea modern supercontinent and
with the spatial distribution of hotspots of the Earth’s mantle. Products of modern volcanism occur in the Earth’s northern
hemisphere in Eurasia, North America, Greenland, in the Atlantic Ocean, Arctic, Africa, and the Pacific Ocean. As anywhere
worldwide, volcanism in the northern hemisphere of the Earth occurs as (a) volcanism of mid-oceanic ridges (MOR), (b) subduction-related
volcanism in island arcs and active continental margins (IA and ACM), (c) volcanism in continental collision (CC) zones, and
(d) within-plate (WP) volcanism, which is related to mantle hotspots, continental rifts, and intercontinental belts. These
types of volcanic areas are fairly often neighboring, and then mixed volcanic areas occur with the persistent participation
of WP volcanism. Correspondingly, modern volcanism in the Earth’s northern hemisphere is of both oceanic and continental nature.
The latter is obviously related to the evolution of the North Pangaea modern supercontinent, because it results from the Meso-Cenozoic
evolution of Wegener’s Late Paleozoic Pangaea. North Pangaea in the Cenozoic comprises Eurasia, North and South America, India,
and Africa and has, similar to other supercontinents, large sizes and a predominantly continental crust. The geodynamic setting
and modern volcanism of North Pangaea are controlled by two differently acting processes: the subduction of lithospheric slabs
from the Pacific Ocean, India, and the Arabia, a process leading to the consolidation of North Pangaea, and the spreading
of oceanic plates on the side of the Atlantic Ocean, a process that “wedges” the supercontinent, modifies its morphology (compared
to that of Wegener’s Pangaea), and results in the intervention of the Atlantic geodynamic regime into the Arctic. The long-lasting
(for >200 Ma) preservation of tectonic stability and the supercontinental status of North Pangaea are controlled by subduction
processes along its boundaries according to the predominant global compression environment. The long-lasting and stable subduction
of lithospheric slabs beneath Eurasia and North America not only facilitated active IA + ACM volcanism but also resulted in
the accumulation of cold lithospheric material in the deep mantle of the region. The latter replaced the hot mantle and forced
this material toward the margins of the supercontinent; this material then ascended in the form of mantle plumes (which served
as sources of WP basite magmas), which are diverging branches of global mantle convection, and ascending flows of subordinate
convective systems at the convergent boundaries of plates. Subduction processes (compressional environments) likely suppressed
the activity of mantle plumes, which acted in the northern polar region of the Earth (including the Siberian trap magmatism)
starting at the latest Triassic until nowadays and periodically ascended to the Earth’s surface and gave rise to WP volcanism.
Starting at the breakup time of Wegener’s Pangaea, which began with the opening of the central Atlantic and systematically
propagated toward the Arctic, marine basins were formed in the place of the Arctic Ocean. However, the development of the
oceanic crust (Eurasian basin) took place in the latter as late as the Cenozoic. Before the appearance of the Gakkel Ridge
and, perhaps, also the oceanic portion of the Amerasian basin, this young ocean is thought to have been a typical basin developing
in the central part of supercontinents. Wegener’s Pangaea broke up under the effect of mantle plumes that developed during
their systematic propagation to the north and south of the Central Atlantic toward the North Pole. These mantle plumes were
formed in relation with the development of global and local mantle convection systems, when hot deep mantle material was forced
upward by cold subducted slabs, which descended down to the core-mantle boundary. The plume (WP) magmatism of Eurasia and
North America was associated with surface collision- or subduction-related magmatism and, in the Atlantic and Arctic, also
with surface spreading-related magmatism (tholeiite basalts). 相似文献

Comparative planetology is an interdisciplinary science between Earth sciences and astronomy. It studies physical, chemical and dynamical properties of planets and satellites and their surface characteristics, interior structures and chemistry, magnetic field, climate and possible existence of life. Although the study of comparative planetary science is at its infancy stage in China, it is very encouraging to see that 25 papers were received by the session, which is much more than what we expected. It indicates that more and more scientists are interested in this research field. These papers can be classified into three categories: solar planets, extra-solar planets, and moon explorations. Scientists from both China and oversea reported their recent results. 相似文献

The methods of celestial mechanics can be used to construct a mathematical model for the perturbed rotational motions of the deformable Earth that can adequately describe the astrometric measurements of the International Earth Rotation Service (IERS). This model describes the gravitational and tidal influences of the Sun and Moon. Fine resonant interactions of long-period zonal tides (annual, semiannual, monthly, and biweekly) with the diurnal and semidiurnal tides are revealed. These interactions can be reliably confirmed via a spectral analysis of the IERS data. Numerical modeling of tidal irregularities of the Earth’s axial rotation was carried out, focusing on the analysis and forecasting of variations of the day length occurring within short time intervals of a year or shorter (intrayear variations). 相似文献

Based on synthetic fluid inclusions in quartz grown at 240–490°C and 7–150 MPa in aqueous–oil solutions, the behavior, composition, and phase states of liquid, gaseous, and solid hydrocarbons (HC) were studied. Investigations were performed using common and fluorescent microscopy, microthermometry, local common and high-temperature IR Fourier spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, chromatography, and X-ray and microprobe analysis. The data obtained allowed us to understand the influence of thermobaric conditions and volume proportions of the oil, aqueous, and gaseous phases on the composition, phase state, and behavior of hydrous–hydrocarbon fluids and estimate the forms and probable maximal depths of the origin of oil in the Earth’s interior. 相似文献

A semiempirical equation of state was derived for magnesite under the thermodynamic conditions of the Earth’s mantle. Within experimental uncertainties, it is consistent with thermochemical, ultrasonic, X-ray, and shock-wave data at temperatures from 15 K to the melting point and pressures of up to 100–130 GPa. The following values were recommended for the isothermal bulk modulus and its pressure derivative: K T = 111.71 GPa and K′ = 4.08. Thermodynamic analysis showed that magnesite does not decompose to periclase and CO2 under the thermodynamic conditions of the Earth’s lower mantle and outer core. 相似文献

The factual material and modeling results concerning the geology of specific structural elements defined as lateral protrusions, or flowing layers, are considered. The formation of such structural elements is a fundamental phenomenon that controls many features of the structural evolution and geodynamics of platform basement and foldbelts. A lateral protrusion, or flowing layer, is a spatially constrained, nearly horizontal geological body with attributes of 3D tectonic flow (rheid deformation) and lateral transport of rock masses. Flowing layers are large lateral protrusions that play important role in the structure of the continental and oceanic lithosphere. They embody the internal mobility of huge rock bodies and confirm the possibility of their lateral redistribution at different depths of the continental lithosphere. The lateral displacement of rocks within such assemblies may occur in the regime of cold deformation, heating, metamorphism, and ductile flow of rocks under subsolidus conditions or in the process of their partial melting. 相似文献
