A partitional clustering-based segmentation is used to carry out supervised classification for hyperspectral images. The main contribution of this study lies in the use of projected and correlation partitional clustering techniques to perform image segmentation. These types of clustering techniques have the capability to concurrently perform clustering and feature/band reduction, and are also able to identify different sets of relevant features for different clusters. Using these clustering techniques segmentation map is obtained, which is combined with the pixel-level support vector machines (SVM) classification result, using majority voting. Experiments are conducted over two hyperspectral images. Combination of pixel-level classification result with the segmentation maps leads to significant improvement of accuracies in both the images. Additionally, it is also observed that, classified maps obtained using SVM combined with projected and correlation clustering techniques results in higher accuracies as compared to classified maps obtained from SVM combined with other partitional clustering techniques.  相似文献

Activity-composition relation of jadeite in omphacite pyroxene: Theoretical deductions     

Jibamitra Ganguly 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1973,19(2):145-153

Theoretical considerations suggest that the activity coefficient of jadeite in natural multicomponent omphacite pyroxene can be approximated by an expression of the form RTlnγ_jd ? W₁₂ (X_Di + X_Hed) (I ? X_Jd), where W₁₂ is an adjustable interchange parameter in the jadeite-diopside join, and X stands for the mole fraction of the specified component in the pyroxene solid solution. Synthesis of the available experimental and observational data yields W₁₂ ? ? 1400 (± 1400) + 1.16 (± 1.16) cal/mole, suggesting a nearly ideal solution around 1100°C, and negative departure from ideality at low temperature of the jadeite-diopside solid solution.  相似文献

Incorporation of water into olivine during nebular condensation: Insights from density functional theory and thermodynamics,and implications for phyllosilicate formation and terrestrial water inventory          下载免费PDF全文

Using density functional theory, we have examined the hydration mechanism of olivine with the objective of understanding the reaction pathways toward the formation of crystalline serpentine and brucite. It is found that further supply of water beyond saturation of the adsorption sites on olivine surfaces leads to the formation of amorphous brucite and serpentine molecules, with the latter forming in the subsurface domain. The calculated activation energy for this process is ~25 kJ mol^?1, which permits formation of the amorphous materials well within the life span of the solar nebula. In addition, molecular dynamic simulations show that the adsorbed water in olivine is stable at least up to 900 K—a finding that is in accord with independent experimental studies. Thus, adsorption plus subsurface reaction of H₂O in olivine could have taken place at temperatures considerably higher than the stability limit of hydrous minerals in the nebular condition. Using the DFT derived enthalpy of adsorption data, and reasonable approximation for the entropy of adsorption, we have calculated the fractional coverage of the reactive surface sites of olivine grains of spherical geometry by adsorbed water, and the corresponding ocean equivalent water (OEW) that could have been accreted into the Earth. These results suggest that adsorption and the associated subsurface hydroxylation of olivine grains might have been responsible for a significant fraction of the Earth's water budget. The adsorption of water into olivine crystals in the solar nebula might also have led to the delivery of water to other planetary bodies.  相似文献   

Neodymium diffusion in orthopyroxene: Experimental studies and applications to geological and planetary problems

We have determined the Nd³⁺ diffusion kinetics in natural enstatite crystals as a function of temperature, f(O₂) and crystallographic direction at 1 bar pressure and applied these data to several terrestrial and planetary problems. The diffusion is found to be anisotropic with the diffusion parallel to the c-axial direction being significantly greater than that parallel to a- and b-axis. Also, D(//a) is likely to be somewhat greater than D(//b). Diffusion experiments parallel to the b-axial direction as a function of f(O₂) do not show a significant dependence of D(Nd³⁺) on f(O₂) within the range defined by the IW buffer and 1.5 log unit above the WM buffer. The observed diffusion anisotropy and weak f(O₂) effect on D(Nd³⁺) may be understood by considering the crystal structure of enstatite and the likely diffusion pathways. Using the experimental data for D(Nd³⁺), we calculated the closure temperature of the Sm-Nd geochronological system in enstatite during cooling as a function of cooling rate, grain size and geometry, initial (peak) temperature and diffusion direction. We have also evaluated the approximate domain of validity of closure temperatures calculated on the basis of an infinite plane sheet model for finite plane sheets showing anisotropic diffusion. These results provide a quantitative framework for the interpretation of Sm-Nd mineral ages of orthopyroxene in planetary samples. We discuss the implications of our experimental data to the problems of melting and subsolidus cooling of mantle rocks, and the resetting of Sm-Nd mineral ages in mesosiderites. It is found that a cooling model proposed earlier [Ganguly J., Yang H., Ghose S., 1994. Thermal history of mesosiderites: Quantitative constraints from compositional zoning and Fe-Mg ordering in orthopyroxene. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 58, 2711-2723] could lead to the observed ∼90 Ma difference between the U-Pb age and Sm-Nd mineral age for mesosiderites, thus obviating the need for a model of resetting of the Sm-Nd mineral age by an “impulsive disturbance” [Prinzhoffer A, Papanastassiou D.A, Wasserburg G.J., 1992. Samarium-neodymium evolution of meteorites. Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta 56, 797-815].  相似文献   

Deciphering the Seasonal Cycle of Copepod Trophic Dynamics in the Strait of Georgia,Canada, Using Stable Isotopes and Fatty Acids     

Rana W. El-Sabaawi  Akash R. Sastri  John F. Dower  Asit Mazumder 《Estuaries and Coasts》2010,33(3):738-752

Characterizing trophic flows is central to our understanding of energy transfer in marine ecosystems. The food webs of coastal systems are difficult to study because the proportion of autochthonous to allochthonous sources often varies seasonally and is often overlaid on a seasonal cycle of zooplankton composition. Here, we use a combination of fatty acids and stable isotopes to disentangle the trophic pathways in a productive coastal system (the Strait of Georgia (SoG), Canada). Over the span of a year, Metridia pacifica, a ubiquitous omnivorous copepod, can utilize a wide range of dietary items including diatoms, flagellates, bacteria, detritus, and microzooplankton. M. pacifica can switch from herbivory to carnivory in response to declining chlorophyll concentrations after the spring bloom and can occasionally utilize detrital sources. These findings are discussed in the context of previous knowledge of the SoG ecosystem, the current state of ecosystem modeling in the region, and the use of stable isotopes and fatty acids to assess trophic dynamics.  相似文献   

Multivariate and multiscale dependence in the global climate system revealed through complex networks     

Karsten Steinhaeuser  Auroop R. Ganguly  Nitesh V. Chawla 《Climate Dynamics》2012,39(3-4):889-895

A systematic characterization of multivariate dependence at multiple spatio-temporal scales is critical to understanding climate system dynamics and improving predictive ability from models and data. However, dependence structures in climate are complex due to nonlinear dynamical generating processes, long-range spatial and long-memory temporal relationships, as well as low-frequency variability. Here we utilize complex networks to explore dependence in climate data. Specifically, networks constructed from reanalysis-based atmospheric variables over oceans and partitioned with community detection methods demonstrate the potential to capture regional and global dependence structures within and among climate variables. Proximity-based dependence as well as long-range spatial relationships are examined along with their evolution over time, yielding new insights on ocean meteorology. The tools are implicitly validated by confirming conceptual understanding about aggregate correlations and teleconnections. Our results also suggest a close similarity of observed dependence patterns in relative humidity and horizontal wind speed over oceans. In addition, updraft velocity, which relates to convective activity over the oceans, exhibits short spatiotemporal decorrelation scales but long-range dependence over time. The multivariate and multi-scale dependence patterns broadly persist over multiple time windows. Our findings motivate further investigations of dependence structures among observations, reanalysis and model-simulated data to enhance process understanding, assess model reliability and improve regional climate predictions.  相似文献

Cation diffusion in aluminosilicate garnets: experimental determination in spessartine-almandine diffusion couples,evaluation of effective binary diffusion coefficients,and applications   总被引：9，自引：1，他引：8

We present new experimental data on diffusion of divalent cations in almandine-spessartine diffusion couples in graphite capsules in the P-T range of 14–35 kb, 1100–1200° C. The tracer diffusion coefficients of the major divalent cations, viz. Fe, Mg and Mn, retrieved from the multicomponent diffusion profiles, have been combined with earlier data from our laboratory at 29–43 kb, 1300–1480° C (Loomis et al. 1985) to derive expressions of the P-T dependence of the diffusion coefficients at fO₂ approximately corresponding to that defined by equilibrium in the system graphite-O₂. We review the conditions, discussed earlier by Cooper, under which the flux of a component in a multicomponent system becomes proportional to its concentration gradient (Fickian diffusion), as if the entire solvent matrix behaves as a single component, and also suggest a method of incorporating the thermodynamic effect on diffusion in the same spirit. Regardless of the magnitude or sign of the off-diagonal terms of the D matrix, it is always possible to define an effective binary diffusion coefficient (EBDC) of a component in a semi-infinite multicomponent diffusion-couple experiment such that it has the property of the Fickian diffusion coefficient, provided that there is no inflection on the diffusion profiles. It is shown that the success of Elphick et al. in fitting the experimental diffusion profiles of all components over a limited concentration range by a single diffusion coefficient is due to fortuitous similarity of the EBDCs of the components (Fe, Mg, Mn and Ca) in their diffusion couple experiments. In common metapelitic garnets showing compositional zoning, the EBDCs of the divalent cations do not differ from each other by more than a factor of 2.5. However, the EBDC of a component changes from core to rim by a factor of 3 to 12, depending on the composition. We suggest a method of volume averaging of the EBDC which should prove useful in approximate calculations of diffusion flux during relaxation of compositional zoning. The EBDC of Mn is found to reduce essentially to D _MnMn, the main diagonal term of the D matrix, and consequently can be calculated quite easily. Evaluation of EBDC of Fe, Mg and Mn in garnets from a prograde Barrovian sequence did not reveal any significant dependence on the extent of relaxation of garnet. The diffusion data have been applied to calculate the cooling rate of natural biotite-garnet diffusion couple from eastern Finland and diffusional modification of growth zoning in garnet in early Proterozoic Wopmay orogen, Canada. The results are in good agreement with geochronological and other independent constraints.Symbols and abbreviations a Radius of a spherical garnet crystal - BSE Back-scattered electron imaging - C Column vector of (n-1) independent components - D Diffusion coefficient matrix - D _ij An element of the diffusion matrix on the i th row and j th column - D _* ⁱ Tracer diffusion coefficient of component i - D(i) Effective interdiffusion coefficient (EIC) of various components in a multicomponent solution rich in the component i - D(i-j) Interdiffusion coefficient of components i and j in a binary solution - D _i (EB) Effective binary diffusion coefficient of component i in a multicomponent solution - D _i (EB:Ideal) D _i (EB) under condition of ideal thermodynamic mixing of the diffusing species - D _i (EB:thermo) Thermodynamic component of D _i(EB) - D _O ^A Interdiffusion coefficient at peak temperature T ₀ in the phase A - D ₀ Pre-exponential factor in an Arrhenius relation - EBDC Effective binary diffusion coefficient between a solute and a multicomponent solvent matrix - FEC Fixed edge composition model - EIC Effective interdiffusion coefficient - f _i Fugacity of component i - HM Hematite-magnetite oxygen fugacity buffer - kb Kilobars - P Pressure - Q Activation energy (enthalpy) of diffusion - Extent of relaxation defined as the difference between core and rim compositions normalized to the same difference in the initial zoning profile - R Gas constant - s Cooling rate - T ₀, T _Ch Peak temperature and characteristic temperature, respectively - t Time - VEC Variable edge composition model - V ⁺ Activation volume - W _ij Simple mixture interaction parameter between i and j - W _i(EB) Effective simple mixture interaction parameter of a component i in a multicomponent solution - _ij Margules interaction parameter between i and j - X _i Mole fraction of component i - _i Activity coefficient of component i - A dimensionless variable =D t/a ² - _ij Kronecker delta (i=j, _ij =1; ij, _ij =0) - Z_i Charge on the ion i  相似文献
