The comment by Day et al. (Contrib Mineral Petrol, 2012) (1) discusses the validity of the previously obtained oxygen isotope data for El Hierro and La Palma (Canary Island) olivines,
(2) questions the approach by Gurenko et al. (Contrib Mineral Petrol 162:349–363, 2011) of using weakly correlated variations of δ18Oolivine values with X
px
(proportion of pyroxenite-derived melt in the parental magma), and (3) provides reasons why oxygen isotope data by secondary
ion mass spectrometry (SIMS) “offer sensitive means for detecting melt-crust interactions.” We respond these comments and
report a new set of oxygen isotope measurements performed by SIMS and single-grain laser fluorination methods. These measurements
confirm our previous data and conclusions and demonstrate the ability of the SIMS technique to analyze O isotopes in terrestrial
samples with 2-sigma uncertainty better than ±0.25 ‰. 相似文献

Gurenko et al. (Contrib Mineral Petrol 162:349–363, 2011) report laser-assisted fluorination (LF) and secondary ionization mass spectrometry (SIMS) 18O/16O datasets for olivine grains from the Canary Islands of Gran Canaria, Tenerife, La Gomera, La Palma and El Hierro. As with prior studies of oxygen isotopes in Canary Island lavas (e.g. Thirlwall et al. Chem Geol 135:233–262, 1997; Day et al. Geology 37:555–558, 2009, Geochim Cosmochim Acta 74:6565–6589, 2010), these authors find variations in δ18Ool (~4.6–6.0 ‰) beyond that measured for mantle peridotite olivine (Mattey et al. Earth Planet Sci Lett 128:231–241, 1994) and interpret this variation to reflect contributions from pyroxenite-peridotite mantle sources. Furthermore, Gurenko et al. (Contrib Mineral Petrol 162:349–363, 2011) speculate that δ18Ool values for La Palma olivine grains measured by LF (Day et al. Geology 37:555–558, 2009, Geochim Cosmochim Acta 74:6565–6589, 2010) may be biased to low values due to the presence of altered silicate, possibly serpentine. The range in δ18Ool values for Canary Island lavas are of importance for constraining their origin. Gurenko et al. (Contrib Mineral Petrol 162:349–363, 2011) took a subset (39 SIMS analyses from 13 grains from a single El Hierro lava; EH4) of a more extensive dataset (321 SIMS analyses from 110 grains from 16 Canary Island lavas) to suggest that δ18Ool is weakly correlated (R 2 = 0.291) with the parameter used by Gurenko et al. (Earth Planet Sci Lett 277:514–524, 2009) to describe the estimated weight fraction of pyroxenite-derived melt (Xpx). With this relationship, end-member δ18O values for HIMU-peridotite (δ18O = 5.3 ± 0.3 ‰) and depleted pyroxenite (δ18O = 5.9 ± 0.3 ‰) were defined. Although the model proposed by Gurenko et al. (Contrib Mineral Petrol 162:349–363, 2011) implicates similar pyroxenite-peridotite mantle sources to those proposed by Day et al. (Geology 37:555–558, 2009, Geochim Cosmochim Acta 74:6565–6589, 2010) and Day and Hilton (Earth Planet Sci Lett 305:226–234, 2011), there are significant differences in the predicted δ18O values of end member components in the two models. In particular, Day et al. (Geochim Cosmochim Acta 74:6565–6589, 2010) proposed a mantle source for La Palma lavas with low-δ18O (<5 ‰), rather than higher-δ18O (c.f. the HIMU-peridotite composition of Gurenko et al. in Contrib Mineral Petrol 162:349–363, 2011). Here we question the approach of using weakly correlated variations in δ18Ool and the Xpx parameter to define mantle source oxygen isotope compositions, and provide examples of why this approach appears flawed. We also provide reasons why the LF datasets previously published for Canary Island lavas remain robust and discuss why LF and SIMS data may provide complementary information on oxygen isotope variations in ocean island basalts (OIB), despite unresolved small-scale uncertainties associated with both techniques. 相似文献

The low-temperature heat capacity (C
P) of stishovite (SiO2) synthesized with a multi-anvil device was measured over the range of 5–303 K using the heat capacity option of a physical
properties measurement system (PPMS) and around ambient temperature using a differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The entropy
of stishovite at standard temperature and pressure calculated from DSC-corrected PPMS data is 24.94 J mol−1 K−1, which is considerably smaller (by 2.86 J mol−1 K−1) than that determined from adiabatic calorimetry (Holm et al. in Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta 31:2289–2307, 1967) and about 4% larger than the recently reported value (Akaogi et al. in Am Mineral 96:1325–1330, 2011). The coesite–stishovite phase transition boundary calculated using the newly determined entropy value of stishovite agrees
reasonably well with the previous experimental results by Zhang et al. (Phys Chem Miner 23:1–10, 1996). The calculated phase boundary of kyanite decomposition reaction is most comparable with the experimental study by Irifune
et al. (Earth Planet Sci Lett 77:245–256, 1995) at low temperatures around 1,400 K, and the calculated slope in this temperature range is mostly consistent with that determined
by in situ X-ray diffraction experiments (Ono et al. in Am Mineral 92:1624–1629, 2007). 相似文献

A backpropagation artificial neural network (ANN) model is developed to predict the secant friction angle of residual and
fully softened soils, using data reported by Stark et al. (J Geotech Geoenviron Eng ASCE 131:575–588, 2005). In the ANN model, index properties such as liquid limit, plastic limit, activity, clay fraction and effective normal stress
are used as input variables while secant residual friction angle is used as output variable. The model is verified using data
that were not used for model training and testing. The results also indicate that the secant residual friction angle of cohesive
soils can be predicted quite accurately using liquid limit, clay fraction and effective normal stress as input variables with
R
2 = 0.93. The sensitivity analysis results indicate that plastic limit and activity have no appreciable effect on ANN predicted
secant friction angles. The secant friction angle predictions of the ANN model were also compared with those of Stark’s et
al. (2005) curves and the empirical formulas suggested for the same data sets by Wright (Evaluation of soil shear strengths for slope
and retaining wall stability with emphasis on high plasticity clays, 2005). The comparison shows that the ANN model predictions are very close to those suggested by the Stark et al. (2005) curves but much better than the prediction of Wright’s (2005) empirical equations. The results also show that ANN is an alternative powerful tool to predict the secant friction angle
of soils. 相似文献

The standard thermodynamic properties at 25°C, 1 bar (ΔG
fo, ΔH
fo, S
o, C
Po, V
o, ω) and the coefficients of the revised Helgeson–Kirkham–Flowers equations of state were evaluated for several aqueous complexes
formed by dissolved metals and either arsenate or arsenite ions. The guidelines of Shock and Helgeson (Geochim Cosmochim Acta
52:2009–2036, 1988) and Sverjensky et al. (Geochim Cosmochim Acta 61:1359–1412, 1997) were followed and corroborated with alternative approaches, whenever possible. The SUPCRT92 computer code was used to generate
the log K of the destruction reactions of these metal–arsenate and metal–arsenite aqueous complexes at pressures and temperatures required
by the EQ3/6 software package, version 7.2b. Apart from the AlAsO4o and FeAsO4o complexes, our log K at 25°C, 1 bar are in fair agreement with those of Whiting (MS Thesis, Colorado School of Mines, Golden, CO, 1992). Moreover, the equilibrium constants evaluated in this study are in good to fair agreement with those determined experimentally
for the Ca–dihydroarsenate and Ca–hydroarsenate complexes at 40°C (Mironov et al., Russ J Inorg Chem 40:1690, 1995) and for Fe(III)–hydroarsenate complex at 25°C (Raposo et al., J Sol Chem 35:79–94, 2006), whereas the disagreement with the log K measured for the Ca–arsenate complex at 40°C (Mironov et al., Russ J Inorg Chem 40:1690, 1995) might be due to uncertainties in this measured value. The implications of aqueous complexing between dissolved metals and
arsenate/arsenite ions were investigated for seawater, high-temperature geothermal liquids and acid mine drainage and aqueous
solutions deriving from mixing of acid mine waters and surface waters.

Chapman and Pollack (C and P)[2007, Int J Earth Sci] criticize Hamza et al. [2007, Int J Earth Sci] for using actual heat flux measurements in young oceanic crust instead of values from 1-D cooling models.
The rationalization of C and P and previous authors is that hydrothermal circulation causes the discrepancy between model
and measurement. However, the discrepancy between model values and measured heat flux exists over the entire ocean floor and
is opposite to the perturbations that hydrothermal circulation would superimpose on a conductive system [Hofmeister and Criss
(2005) Tectonophysics 409:199–203]. The error lies in force-fitting a 1-D cooling model to the 3-D oceanic crust [Hofmeister and
Criss (2005) Tectonophysics 395:159–177]. Shortcomings of the 1-D model include mathematical errors, such as use of volumetric rather
than linear thermal expansivity to describe contraction which, by assumption, is limited only to the Z
-direction [Hofmeister and Criss (2006) Tectonophysics]. This 3× error, traceable to McKenzie and Sclater [1969, Bull Vocanol 33–1:101–118], accidentally provides good agreement of model values with globally averaged seafloor depths
for young, but not old ages, and is the sole rationale for using the simplistic cooling model. There is no justification for
selective substitution of erroneous 1-D model values for measurements only for the younger half of the 3-D oceanic crust,
as stridently and arbitrarily promoted by C and P. Hamza et al. [2007, Int J Earth Sci], in contrast, use the scientific method, which calls for discarding models that do not well describe physical
phenomena.
The remainder of this report summarizes the shortcomings of cooling models, particularly the half-space cooling (HSC) model
touted by C and P, and explains how hydrothermal circulation affects heat flux. We focus on the basics, as these have been
misunderstood. With the key issues of C and P being erroneous, it is not necessary to address their remaining comments, many
of which enumerate the vote for an imagined, gargantuan circulation of hot fluid through oceanic basins that is somehow warmed
without removing heat from the rocks. The use of “consensus” to belittle valid challenge is the enemy of the scientific method. 相似文献

Elastic wave velocities for dense (99.8% of theoretical density) isotropic polycrystalline specimens of synthetic pyrope (Mg3Al2Si3O12) were measured to 1,000 K at 300 MPa by the phase comparison method of ultrasonic interferometry in an internally heated
gas-medium apparatus. The temperature derivatives of the elastic moduli [(∂Ks/∂T)

P

DIA-type cubic anvil apparatus (Gwanmesia et al. in Phys Earth Planet Inter 155:179–190, 2006) and on a natural single crystal by the rectangular parallelepiped resonance (RPR; Suzuki and Anderson in J Phys Earth 31:125–138,

P
| is significantly larger than from a Brillouin spectroscopy study of single-crystal pyrope (Sinogeikin and Bass in Phys Earth
Planet Inter 203:549–555, 2002). Alternative approaches to the retrieval of mixed derivatives of the elastic moduli from joint analysis of data from this
study and from the solid-medium data of Gwanmesia et al. in Phys Earth Planet Inter 155:179–190 (2006) yield ∂2

K
S
/∂P∂T = [−0.20(24), 0.22(26)] × 10−3 K−1, both of order 10−4 K−1 and not significantly different from zero. More robust inference of the mixed derivatives will require solid-medium acoustic
measurements of precision significantly better than 1%. 相似文献

We report studies based on a combination of ab initio electronic structure and Monte Carlo (MC) technique on the problem of
cation partitioning among inequivalent octahedral sites, M1 and M2 in mixed olivines containing Mg2+ and Fe2+ ions. Our MC scheme uses interactions derived out of ab initio, density functional calculations carried out on measured crystal
structure data. Our results show that there is no reversal of the preference of Fe for M1 over M2 as a function of temperature.
Our findings do not agree with the experimental findings of Redfern et al. (Phys Chem Miner 27:630–637, 2000), but are in agreement with those of Heinemann et al. (Eur J Mineral 18:673–689, 2006) and Morozov et al. (Eur J Mineral 17:495–500, 2005). 相似文献

Coupling of oceanic and continental crust during Eocene eclogite-facies metamorphism: evidence from the Monte Rosa nappe,western Alps 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

High precision U–Pb geochronology of rutile from quartz–carbonate–white mica–rutile veins that are hosted within eclogite
and schist of the Monte Rosa nappe, western Alps, Italy, indicate that the Monte Rosa nappe was at eclogite-facies metamorphic
conditions at 42.6 ± 0.6 Ma. The sample area [Indren glacier, Furgg zone; Dal Piaz (2001) Geology of the Monte Rosa massif: historical review and personal comments. SMPM] consists of eclogite boudins that are exposed
inside a south-plunging overturned synform within micaceous schist. Associated with the eclogite and schist are quartz–carbonate–white
mica–rutile veins that formed in tension cracks in the eclogite and along the contact between eclogite and surrounding schist.
Intrusion of the veins at about 42.6 Ma occurred at eclogite-facies metamorphic conditions (480–570°C, >1.3–1.4 GPa) based
on textural relations, oxygen isotope thermometry, and geothermobarometry. The timing of eclogite-facies metamorphism in the
Monte Rosa nappe determined in this study is identical to that of the Gran Paradiso nappe [Meffan-Main et al. (2004) J Metamorphic Geol 22:261–281], confirming that these two units have shared the same Alpine metamorphic history. Furthermore,
the Gran Paradiso and Monte Rosa nappes underwent eclogite-facies metamorphism within the same time interval as the structurally
overlying Zermatt-Saas ophiolite [∼50–40 Ma; e.g., Amato et al. (1999) Earth Planet Sci Lett 171:425–438; Mayer et al. (1999) Eur Union Geosci 10:809 (abstract); Lapen et al. (2003) Earth Planet Sci Lett 215:57–72]. The nearly identical P–T–t histories of the Gran Paradiso, Monte Rosa, and Zermatt-Saas units suggest that these units shared a common Alpine tectonic
and metamorphic history. The close spatial and temporal associations between high pressure (HP) ophiolite and continental
crust during Alpine orogeny indicates that the HP internal basement nappes in the western Alps may have played a key role
in exhumation and preservation of the ophiolitic rocks through buoyancy-driven uplift. Coupling of oceanic and continental
crust may therefore be critical in preventing permanent loss of oceanic crust to the mantle. 相似文献

Arching is a well known phenomenon, which effects stress developments which were investigated and compared using analytical
and numerical solutions. Marston’s (1930) solution was extended to a generalised 3-dimensional rectangular stope and later modified for square and circular stopes
for comparison with FLAC results. Aubertin et al. (2003) & Li et al. (2003) models were improved significantly by placing the backfill within narrow stopes as lifts or layers in numerical modelling
where the normal stress variation with depth were found to be more realistic. The FLAC results were compared with analytical
solutions which were developed by previous researchers and modified by the authors to evaluate the arching effects in backfilled
placed in narrow and circular stopes. It appeared from the investigation herein that δ = 0.67 ϕ and K = K
o condition gives a very close match with the numerical model solutions obtained from FLAC. Many laboratory tests were conducted
to find out friction angles for four Australian mines, which were between 30 and 49 degrees. 相似文献

There are significant advantages in using indirect pedo-transfer functions, (PTFs) for the estimation of unsaturated soil
properties. The pedo-transfer functions can be used for the estimation of the soil–water characteristic curve (SWCC) which
in turn is used for the estimation of other unsaturated soil properties. The accuracy of the indirect pedo-transfer function
method for the estimation of the SWCC depends on the PTF and the equation used to best-fit the particle-size distribution
(PSD) data. The objectives of this study are to: (1) evaluate the performance of the Fredlund et al. (Can Geotech J 37:817–827,
2000) equation for best-fitting the particle-size distribution, (PSD) data, and, (2) compare the predictions made by two of the
commonly used PTFs; namely, Arya and Paris (Soil Sci Soc Am J 45:1023–1030, 1981) and Fredlund et al. (Can Geotech J 39:1103–1117, 2002), for estimating the SWCC from the PSD. The authors used 258 measured PSDs and SWCC datasets from the Loess Plateau, China,
for this study. The dataset consisted of 187 silt–loam soils, 41 loam soils, 11 silt–clay–loam soils, 10 sand–loam soils,
6 silt–clay soils, and 3 loam–sand soils. The SWCC and PSD datasets were measured using a Pressure Plate apparatus and the
pipette method, respectively. The comparison between the estimated and measured particle-size distribution curves showed that
the Fredlund et al. (Can Geotech J 37:817–827, 2000) equation closely prepresented the PSD for all soils in the Loess Plateau, with a lower root mean square error (RMSE) of
0.869%. The comparison between the estimated and measured water contents at the same suction showed that the Fredlund et al.
(Can Geotech J 39:1103–1117, 2002) PTF performed somewhat better than the Arya and Paris (Soil Sci Soc Am J 45:1023–1030, 1981) function. The Fredlund et al. method had RMSE value of 0.039 cm3 cm−3 as opposed to 0.046 cm3 cm−3 for the Arya and Paris (Soil Sci Soc Am J 45:1023–1030, 1981) method. The Fredlund et al. (Can Geotech J 39:1103–1117, 2002) PTF produced the closest predictions for sand–loam, loam–sand, and loam soils, with a lower RMSE for gravimetric water content
ranging from 0.006 to 0.036 cm3 cm−3. There were consistent over-estimations observed for silt–loam, silt–clay–loam, and slit–clay soils with RMSE values for
gravimetric water content ranging from 0.037 to 0.043 cm3 cm−3. The measured and estimated air-entry values were closest when using the Fredlund et al. (Can Geotech J 39:1103–1117, 2002) PTF. The measured and estimated maximum slopes on the SWCC were closest when using the Arya and Paris (Soil Sci Soc Am J
45:1023–1030, 1981) PTF. 相似文献

Zr-in-rutile thermometry in HP/UHP eclogites from Western China 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Four Zr-in-rutile thermometry calibrations are applied to eclogites from Western China. Here, we show that if rutile grows
in equilibrium with Qtz and Zrn, and is isolated inside garnet, it preserves its Zr composition and does not undergo compositional
change due to cation exchange with the host garnet. It thus preserves the composition for the P–T conditions of its formation and the growth zoning of the host garnet. For the HP/UHP metamorphic temperature, the Tomkins
et al. (J Metamorph Geol 25:703–713, 2007) calibration yields temperatures that agree well with previous studies, whereas the other three calibrations (Zack et al.
in Contrib Mineral Petrol 148:471–488, 2004; Watson et al. in Contrib Mineral Petrol 151:413–433, 2006; Ferry and Watson in Contrib Mineral Petrol in 154:429–437, 2007), which do not include a pressure correction, give systematically lower temperatures. Zr contents of rutile inclusions within
garnet show systematic decrease from garnet core to rim. The rutile inclusions in garnet rims contain the lowest Zr content,
similar to that in the matrix. Analyses confirm that the pressure plays a significant role in modifying the primary temperature
dependence of the Zr content of rutile. Rutiles trapped in garnets are unable to re-equilibrate easily during retrogression,
but those in the matrix can do so, providing retrograde P–T path information. 相似文献

The comment of Martin Oczlon contains some significant contributions to the topics discussed in the article of Huckriede et
al. (Int J Earth Sci 93:414–431, 2004). Contrary to Oczlon’s comment, the central results of Huckriede et al. (Int J Earth Sci 93:414–431, 2004) are clearly different from the tectonic model of Oczlon (Geol Rundsch 83:20–31, 1994). Additionally, there is no reason for a new interpretation of the 40K/40Ar muscovite cooling-ages from allochthonous units. 相似文献

A basanite–nephelinite glass suite from early submarine Kilauea defines a continuous compositional array marked by increasing
concentrations of incompatible components with decreasing SiO2, MgO, and Al2O3. Like peripheral and post-shield strongly alkalic Hawaiian localities (Clague et al. in J Volcanol Geotherm Res 151:279–307,
2006; Dixon et al. in J Pet 38:911–939, 1997), the early Kilauea basanite–nephelinite glasses are interpreted as olivine fractionation products from primary magnesian
alkalic liquids. For early Kilauea, these were saturated with a garnet–phlogopite–sulfide peridotite assemblage, with elevated
dissolved CO2 contents responsible for the liquids’ distinctly low-SiO2 concentrations. Reconstructed primitive liquids for early Kilauea and other Hawaiian strongly alkalic localities are similar
to experimental 3 GPa low-degree melts of moderately carbonated garnet lherzolite, and estimated parent magma temperatures
of 1,350–1,400°C (olivine–liquid geothermometry) match the ambient upper mantle geotherm shortly beneath the base of the lithosphere.
The ~3 GPa source regions were too hot for stable crystalline carbonate and may have consisted of ambient upper mantle peridotite
containing interstitial carbonate–silicate or carbonatitic liquid, possibly (Dixon et al. in Geochem Geophys Geosyst 9(9):Q09005,
2008), although not necessarily, from the Hawaiian mantle plume. Carbonate-enriched domains were particularly susceptible to further
melting upon modest decompression during upward lithospheric flexure beneath the advancing Hawaiian Arch, or by conductive
heating or upward drag by the Hawaiian mantle plume. The early Kilauea basanite–nephelinite suite has a HIMU-influenced isotopic
character unlike other Hawaiian magmas (Shimizu et al. in EOS Tran Amer Geophys Union 82(47): abstr V12B-0962, 2001; Shimizu et al. in Geochim Cosmochim Acta 66(15A):710, 2002) but consistent with oceanic carbonatite involvement (Hoernle et al. in Contrib Mineral Petrol 142:520–542, 2002). It may represent the melting products of a fertile domain in the ambient upper mantle impinged upon and perturbed by the
sustained plume source that feeds later shield-stage magmatism. 相似文献

The premise of the Wilson et al. comment is that the Ti-in-quartz solubility calibration (Thomas et al. in Contrib Mineral
Petrol 160:743–759, 2010) is fundamentally flawed. They reach this conclusion because P–T estimates using the Ti-in-quartz calibration differ from their previous interpretations for crystallization conditions of
the Bishop and Oruanui rhyolites. If correct, this assertion has far-reaching implications, so a careful assessment of the
Wilson et al. reasoning is warranted. Application of the Ti-in-quartz calibration as a thermobarometer in rutile-free rocks
requires an estimation of TiO2 activity in the liquid ( (liquid–rutile); referenced to rutile saturation) and an independent constraint on either P or T to obtain the crystallization temperature or pressure, respectively. The foundation of Wilson et al.’s argument is that temperature
estimates obtained from Fe–Ti oxide thermometry accurately reflect crystallization conditions of quartz in the two rhyolites
discussed. We maintain that our experimental approach is sound, the thermodynamic basis of the Ti-in-quartz calibration is
fundamentally correct, and our experimental results are robust and reproducible. We suggest that the reason Wilson et al.
obtain implausible pressure estimates is because estimates for T and they used as input values for the Ti-in-quartz calibration are demonstrably too high. Numerous studies show that Fe–Ti oxide
temperature estimates of some rhyolites are substantially higher than those predicted by well-constrained phase equilibria.
In this reply, we show that when reasonable input values for T and (liquid–rutile) are used, pressure estimates obtained from the Ti-in-quartz calibration are well aligned with phase equilibria
and essentially identical to melt inclusion volatile saturation pressures. 相似文献

A simplest equation within the framework of the Mie-Grüneisen–Einstein approach is considered. Pressure estimation values
are presented that are derived by conventional arithmetic and algebraic calculations as a function of temperature and volume.
The equation under consideration complies with the Mie-Grüneisen–Debye model at high temperature. Different versions of an
equation of state (EoS) of MgO proposed by Speziale et al. (J Geophys Res 106B:515–528, 2001) as a pressure standard at high temperatures are subject to analyses. In the literature, at least four versions of Speziale
et al. EoS of MgO are discussed; the discrepancy between them reaching a few GPa at T > 2,000 K and P > 100 GPa. Our analyses of these equations suggest that the volume dependence of the Debye temperature is accepted arbitrarily
and does not agree with the definition of the Grüneisen parameter, γ = −(∂lnΘ/∂lnV)
T
. Pressure as a function of temperature and volume in the Mie-Grüneisen–Einstein approach or the Gao pressure calculator can
be used to estimate true pressure at compression x = V/V

Sedimentary records of Lake Edward in Central Africa from the late Holocene era exhibit submillennial-scale periodicities
in magnesium (Mg) and stable isotope compositions of endogenic calcite. Using multitaper spectral analysis, Russell et al. (Geology
31(8):677–680, 2003) detected a 725-yr cycle in the Mg data. We have analyzed the Mg data using a continuous wavelet transform and observed temporal
variations in the submillennial periodicities. These temporal variations can be discerned from a time-period representation
of the wavelet power spectrum by visual inspection. The multi-taper spectral analysis is based on the traditional Fourier
transform, which is a purely frequency domain technique, and therefore cannot detect temporal variability of the spectrum,
if any. In contrast, wavelet analysis offers a spectral-temporal approach by which both the dominant periodicities and their
time variations can be identified. In this regard, the results of our wavelet analysis extend those of Russell et al. (Geology
31(8):677–680, 2003). Our analysis reveals dominant periodicities around the 785-yr and 660-yr cycles, but these cycles persist over different
time spans within the late Holocene era. The 725-yr period identified by Russell et al. (Geology 31(8):677–680, 2003) with multitaper spectral analysis is very close to the average of the periods of these two cycles. For the purpose of accurately
reconstructing the climate history in Central Africa using Mg as a proxy, it would be important to take into consideration
the temporal variations of the submillennial periodicities. 相似文献

Thermodynamic and chemographic modelling of complex reaction textures observed in Mg-Al-rich pelitic granulites is an important tool to unravel the P–T evolutionary history of high-grade rocks. In the Eastern Ghats Belt, India, several studies have been carried out on these fascinating aluminous granulites, and the results of these studies have revealed complex P–T–t histories (Dasgupta and Sengupta 1995; Sengupta et al. 1999; Rickers et al. 2001a, 2001b; Gupta et al. 1999; Dobmeier and Simmat 2002; Dobmeier and Raith 2003). In recent communication, Bhattacharya and Kar (2002) reported reaction textures from a suite of Mg-Al granulites from the Paderu area of the Eastern Ghats Belt. Combining the textural relations and thermodynamic calibration of some construed reactions, the authors have put forward a single phase metamorphic evolution of the area along a clockwise pressure–temperature trajectory. Combining the petrological features from the Paderu area with those reported from the Chilka Lake complex, the authors proposed a general tectonic model for the entire Eastern Ghats Belt. Incidentally, the rocks in and around Paderu have been studied in some detail by several other workers (Lal et al. 1987; Mohan et al. 1997; Sengupta et al. 1997). The purpose of this comment is to demonstrate that the conclusions made in the paper are inconsistent with the petrological features described in the text. Further, the thermodynamic treatment used in the paper has serious errors in many places, and hence, is often in complete disagreement with the existing experimental data and theoretical analyses on the Mg-Al-rich assemblages. There are also significant problems arising from the poor quality of the analytical database. Unfortunately, the authors cite only a few published works (mostly their own) ignoring many other relevant studies from this belt (cited above). Our observations are organised according to the sections of the paper.Editorial responsibility: T.L. Grove 相似文献

Zr diffusion in titanite 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Chemical diffusion of Zr under anhydrous, pO2-buffered conditions has been measured in natural titanite. The source of diffusant was either zircon powder or a ZrO2–Al2O3–titanite mixture. Experiments were run in sealed silica glass capsules with solid buffers (to buffer at NNO or QFM). Rutherford Backscattering Spectrometry (RBS) was used to measure diffusion profiles. The following Arrhenius parameters were obtained for Zr diffusion parallel to c over the temperature range 753–1,100°C under NNO-buffered conditions: D
Zr = 5.33 × 10−7 exp(−325 ± 30 kJ mol−1/RT) m2 s−1 Diffusivities are similar for experiments buffered at QFM. These data suggest that titanite should be moderately retentive of Zr chemical signatures, with diffusivities slower than those for O and Pb in titanite, but faster than those for Sr and the REE. When applied in evaluation of the relative robustness of the recently developed Zr-in-titanite geothermometer (Hayden and Watson, Abstract, 16th V.M. Goldschmidt Conference 2006), these findings suggest that Zr concentrations in titanite will be less likely to be affected by later thermal disturbance than the geothermometer based on Zr concentrations in rutile (Zack et al. in Contrib Mineral Petrol 148:471–488, 2004; Watson et al. in Contrib Mineral. Petrol, 2006), but much less resistant to diffusional alteration subsequent to crystallization than the Ti-in-Zircon geothermometer (Watson and Harrison in Science 308:841–844, 2005). 相似文献
