The isotopic compositions of Pb and Sr in Pleistocene basalt, high-silica rhyolite, and andesitic inclusions in rhyolite of the Coso volcanic field indicate that these rocks were derived from different levels of compositionally zoned magmatic systems. The 2 earliest rhyolites probably were tapped from short-lived silicic reservoirs, in contrast to the other 36 rhyolite domes and lava flows which the isotopic data suggest may have been leaked from the top of a single, long-lived magmatic system. Most Coso basalts show isotopic, geochemical, and mineralogic evidence of interaction with crustal rocks, but one analyzed flow has isotopic ratios that may represent mantle values (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr=0.7036,²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb=19.05,²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb=15.62,²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁴Pb= 38.63). The (initial) isotopic composition of typical rhyolite (⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr=0.7053,²⁰⁶Pb/²⁰⁴Pb=19.29,²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁴Pb= 15.68,²⁰⁸Pb/²⁰⁴Pb=39.00) is representative of the middle or upper crust. Andesitic inclusions in the rhyolites are evidently samples of hybrid magmas from the silicic/mafic interface in vertically zoned magma reservoirs. Silicic end-member compositions inferred for these mixed magmas, however, are not those of erupted rhyolite but reflect the zonation within the silicic part of the magma reservoir. The compositional contrast at the interface between mafic and silicic parts of these systems apparently was greater for the earlier, smaller reservoirs.  相似文献   

Effect of occurrence rate of acoustic emissions on their statistical behavior     

Hitoshi Oda  Haruo Koami  Kiyoshi Seya 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1989,130(1):5-29

The parameterm in Ishimoto-Iida's relation was investigated for acoustic emissions (AEs) occurring in rock samples under uniaxial compression. In the experiment, we found: 1) The large AEs are counted without serious error but the number of small AEs is systematically underestimated at high AE rates, 2) the frequency distribution of maximum AE amplitudes becomes nonlinear in logarithmic scale with increasing AE rate, and 3) there exists a strong negative correlation betweenm-value and AE rate. The miscount of small AEs was interpreted as due to overlap of the large and small AEs. We call the miscount masking effect. A statistical analysis based on the masking effect showed that them-value decreases more effectively as the AE rate increases, and thus the masking effect is a possible origin both for the nonlinear frequency distribution of maximum AE amplitudes and for the negative correlation ofm-value with AE rate. We emphasize that one should be careful of the masking effect to examine correctly the change, ofm-value. In order to eliminate the masking effect, AEs should be measured by a measurement system with low sensitivity. Even if the masking effect is eliminated, them-value decreases before the main fracture of a rock sample. Them-value is a key parameter to predict the main fracture.  相似文献

Collapse of low-mass clouds in the presence of a UV radiation field     

Hajime Susa  Tetsu Kitayama 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2000,317(1):175-178

The collapse of marginally Jeans-unstable primordial gas clouds in the presence of a UV radiation field is discussed. Assuming that the dynamical collapse proceeds approximately in an isothermal self-similar fashion, we investigate the thermal evolution of the collapsing central core until H₂ cooling dominates photoheating and the temperature drops to below 10⁴ K. Consequently, the mass of the cooled core is evaluated as M _cool=3.6×10⁶ M_⊙ ( I ₂₁/1)^−0.32. This scale depends only on the incident UV intensity, and provides a lower limit to the mass of collapsed objects in the UV radiation field.  相似文献   

Further characterization of carbonaceous materials in Hayabusa‐returned samples to understand their origin

Carbonaceous materials in the sample catcher of the Hayabusa spacecraft were assigned as category 3 particles. We investigated the category 3 particles with a suite of in situ microanalytical methods. Possible contaminants collected from the cleanrooms of the spacecraft assembly and extraterrestrial sample curation center (ESCuC) were also analyzed in the same manner as category 3 particles for comparison. Our data were integrated with those of the preliminary examination team for category 3 particles. Possible origins for the category 3 particles include contamination before and after the operation of the Hayabusa spacecraft.  相似文献   

The Role of Suspended Oyster Culture on Nitrogen Cycle in Hiroshima Bay   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Putth Songsangjinda  Osamu Matsuda  Tamiji Yamamoto  Narasimmalu Rajendran  Hajime Maeda 《Journal of Oceanography》2000,56(2):223-231

The predominance of bivalves affects the cycle of materials in the coastal ecosystem. In the present study, the role of suspended oyster culture on the nitrogen cycle was demonstrated for the northern Hiroshima Bay. The nitrogen cycle was considered as two systems, (1) the primary production (PP) system and (2) the oyster culture (OC) system. The results show that about 26% of N productivity was supplied to process by cultured oysters in the OC system. This process varies seasonally due to the seasonal variations of PON, physiological activities and biomass of oysters. The N processing rates were found to be high in summer and low in winter. The biodeposition and excretion of N in the OC system are 3.0 and 2.1 ton N d^–1, while the natural sedimentation rate and N regeneration in the PP system are 8.3 and 18.0 ton N d^–1, which indicates that the PP system is a major system regenerating N in the water column. The release of total dissolved N from the bottom to the water column is about 8.3 ton N d^–1. The amount of N harvested as oyster product was about 1.3 ton N d^–1, which is about 10% of daily N loading in north Hiroshima Bay. According to the N cycle developed in the present study, the results suggest the significant role of suspended oyster culture on the nitrogen cycle in Hiroshima Bay. In addition, our results indicate that oyster production was efficiently harvested, suggesting that oyster culture could probably be used as a tool to remove N from Hiroshima Bay.  相似文献   

Numerical analysis of effects of tidal variations on storm surges and waves   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

Soo Youl Kim  Tomohiro Yasuda  Hajime Mase 《Applied Ocean Research》2008,30(4):311-322

This study examines the effects of tides on surges, wave setups and waves, in terms of tidal amplitudes and phases, by using a coupled numerical model of Surge, WAve and Tide (called as SuWAT). The SuWAT model, composed of depth integrated nonlinear shallow water equations and Simulating WAves Nearshore (SWAN) model, is able to simultaneously run with an arbitrary number of nested domains by using the Message Passing Interface. The results for an idealized case indicate that surge and wave setup are increased in the phase of low water and decreased in the high water phase; on the other hand, waves change in a reverse manner. Such changes are enhanced by large tidal variations. The conventional method (e.g., surge plus tide independently) has the possibility of overestimation for the total water level. The hindcast results for Typhoon Ewiniar in 2006 show that the run with tides is more accurate 10% than that without tides in coastal areas of Korea. The nested scheme improves the accuracy up to 40% for the prediction of water levels in the simulations. It is shown that the present coupled model, SuWAT, is capable of predicting both water levels and waves under storm events with reasonable accuracy against the observations.  相似文献

Evaluation of various satellite sensors for waterline extraction in a coral reef environment: Majuro Atoll, Marshall Islands   总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4

The ability of five satellite sensor bands (IKONOS band 4, Terra ASTER bands 3 and 4, and Landsat ETM+ bands 4 and 5) was examined to extract the waterline at coral reef coasts (Majuro Atoll, Marshall Islands) using different wavelength regions (near infrared [NIR] and shortwave infrared [SWIR]) and different spatial resolutions (4, 15, and 30 m). After performing georeferencing and normalization of the images, density slicing was used to extract the waterline. Comparisons of extracted waterline positions with ground-level data for eight transects and global positioning system (GPS) tracks of the island shorelines showed that NIR bands were superior to SWIR bands because of the characteristics of the coral reef coasts, including a lack of foam and suspended sediments (which can affect the NIR wavelength region, if present) and the presence of remnant water on reef flats during low tide (which can affect the SWIR wavelength region). A linear relationship was found between the estimation errors of waterline positions and the spatial resolutions of the NIR sensors. Analysis on estimation errors and image costs showed that Terra ASTER band 3 was the most cost-effective sensor for extracting waterlines with reasonable accuracy. The results serve as general guidelines for using satellite-derived data to estimate intertidal topography and detect and monitor shorelines in coral reef environments.  相似文献   

A Three-Dimensional Simulation of HO x Concentrations Over East Asia During TRACE-P     

Meigen Zhang  Hajime Akimoto  Itsushi Uno 《Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry》2006,54(3):233-254

The Models-3 Community Multi-scale Air Quality modeling system (CMAQ) coupled with the Regional Atmospheric Modeling System (RAMS) is used to simulate three-dimensional concentration distributions of hydroxyl (OH) and hydroperoxyl (HO₂) radicals over the western Pacific Ocean during the NASA Transport and Chemical Evolution over the Pacific (TRACE-P) field campaign. Modeled values of OH and HO₂ and their closely related chemical species and photolysis rates are compared with observational data collected onboard the DC-8 aircraft. Comparison shows that the model reasonably reproduced these observed values over a broad range of conditions with an overall tendency to overestimate the measured OH and HO₂ by a factor of 1.56 and 1.24, respectively. A case study of OH, HO₂ and their closely related chemical species and photolysis rates along the DC-8 flights 11 and 12 conducted on 17–18 March 2001 shows that the model reproduces the temporal and spatial variations reasonable well, and produces more reliable OH and HO₂ concentrations in the polluted environment than in the clean marine boundary layer.  相似文献
