Carbon and oxygen isotope ratios of 59 samples of Mesozoic ophicalcites from the north-central Apennines were measured. Strontium content and isotope ratios were only determined for selected samples.

The data obtained (−4.1 ≤ δ ¹³C ≤ + 3.0; 16.5 ≤ δ ¹⁸O ≤ 30.1; 0.7076 ≤ ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ≤ 0.7086; 60 ≤ Sr ppm ≤ 1140) suggest that the carbonate cement of the Apennines ophicalcites had a marine origin.

The ¹⁸O/¹⁶O values of most of the carbonates studied, however, indicate that the rocks have interacted with hydrothermal fluids, dominantly represented by sea water. In particular, the rocks from the northern section of the Apennines apparently reequilibrated their δ ¹⁸O content at higher temperature than those from the central zone.

Strontium isotope ratios, close to the Cretaceous—Cenozoic ocean water values, are well in agreement with such a kind of sea water/ophicalcites interaction, even if the carbonate cement formed earlier during the Jurassic period.  相似文献   

Oxygen and strontium isotope ratios in some ejecta from the Alban Hills volcanic area,Roman comagmatic region

CaSO₄ has been investigated at room temperature over the pressure range of 0 to 160 kbar. A reversible, sluggish transition that occurs at about 20 kbar with a volume change of about 4% has been confirmed. The x-ray powder data collected at pressure can be indexed on the monoclinic monazite structure cell (P2₁/n) which is considered to be the most likely model structure for the new HP CaSO₄ phase. The transition is largely distortional and involves rotation and displacement, but essentially preserves the chains of edge shared CaO₈₍₉₎ and SO₄ polyhedra found in the orthorhombic anhydrite (Bbmm) structure.  相似文献   

Geochemical evidence on the origin of the epithermal fluorite deposit at Monte Delle Fate near Cerveteri (Latium,Central Italy)     

M. Barbieri  U. Masi  L. Tolomeo 《Mineralium Deposita》1977,12(3):393-398

Sr content was measured in 6 fluorite and 7 calcite samples from an epithermal deposit of fluorite at Monte delle Fate near Cerveteri (Latium, Italy). Sr isotope ratios were obtained from two selected samples. Sr contents of calcite range from 1,200 to 2,620 ppm and of fluorite from 10 to 360 ppm. ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr values of calcite and fluorite are 0.7087 and 0.7091, respectively. Such isotope ratios clearly indicate that the bulk of strontium present in both minerals was provided by marine sedimentary reservoirs. According to the Sr distribution coefficient, the low contents measured in fluorite, which formed after calcite, clearly prove that the mineral was not deposited by the same kind of waters from which calcite originated. The high Sr contents of calcite suggest that the bicarbonate-bearing waters have largely interacted with Ca-sulphate evaporites of Upper Triassic age. On the contrary, the waters from which fluorite precipitated were apparently involved in a more superficial circulation through post-Triassic sedimentary formations.

Résumé On a determiné la teneur de strontium dans 6 échantillons de fluorite et 7 échantillons de calcite d'un gisement à fluorite près de Monte delle Fate, Cerveteri (Latium; Italie centrale). De plus les rapports isotopiques du même élément ont été mésurés pour deux échantillons choisis. Les teneurs du strontium dans la calcite et la fluorite varient de 1 200 à 2 620 ppm et de 10 à 360 ppm, respectivement. La valeur du rapport ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr est pour la calcite 0,7087 et pour la fluorite 0,7091. Ces rapports indiquent que les sédiments marins ont été la source de la plupart du strontium dans les deux minéraux. Selon le coefficient de distribution du strontium, la fluorite, de déposition postérieure à la calcite, n'a pas pu précipiter de la même eau de la calcite. Les teneurs élevées de l'élément dans la calcite sont la conséquence de l'interaction des eaux bicarbonatées avec les sédiments sulfate-évaporitiques du Triassique supérieur. Au contraire les eaux primaires de la fluorite ont circulé dans les sédiments post-Triassiques.

The dynamic model Seemod applied to the Southern Basin of Lake Lugano   总被引：1，自引：1，他引：1

The dynamic model Seemod developed at the EAWAG (Imboden and Gächter, 1978) and modified by Bührer (Ambühl and Bührer, 1984), was adapted to the South Basin of the Lake of Lugano (Lago di Lugano). The model can predict the evolution of the state of the lake, described by the concentrations of dissolved phosphorus, dissolved oxygen particulate phosphorus and organic particulate carbon, in function of phosphorus load and taking into account physical and biochemical initial- and boundary conditions. The model parameters were chosen through measurements and calibrations by short runs. A 10-year-long simulation was done, starting from the data of 1980, and its results agree quite well with the measurements. Then some 15-year-long simulations were done, which corresponded to different scenarios related to a progressive linking up of sewage systems to water treatment plants. The model predicts that a satisfactory water quality level can only be reached by reducing the total phosphorus input to less than 25 t/a.  相似文献   

Geomorphological, paleontological and Sr/Sr isotope analyses of early Pleistocene paleoshorelines to define the uplift of Central Apennines (Italy)     

Marco Mancini  Elisabetta D'Anastasio  Mario Barbieri  Paolo Marco De Martini   《Quaternary Research》2007,67(3):487-501

The eastern border of the Middle Valley of the Tiber River is characterized by several Plio-Pleistocene paleoshorelines, which extend for about 100 km along the western margin of the Central Apennines (Italy). We studied these paleoshorelines by the means of geological and paleontological analyses and new ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr isotope analyses. The youngest and uppermost paleoshorelines have been detected and mapped through detailed geologic and stratigraphic surveys, which led to the recognition of nearshore deposits, cliff breccias, alignments of Lithophaga borings, fossil abrasion notches and wave-cut platforms. The altitude of these paleoshorelines decreases almost regularly in the NNW–SSE direction from 480 to 220 m a.s.l. Measurements of the ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr isotope ratio have been conducted on corals and mollusks collected from sediments outcropping close to the paleoshorelines. The isotopic dating results indicate numerical values that range between 0.70907 and 0.70910 all over the 100-km outcrop. These results, together with biostratigraphic data, constrain the age of the youngest paleoshorelines to 1.65–1.50 Ma. These paleoshorelines are thus considered almost isochronous, giving an estimated uplift rate of 0.34–0.17 ± 0.03 mm/a moving from NNW to SSE. Shape, length and continuity of the 100-km-long observed movements indicate that the studied paleoshorelines are an important marker of the Quaternary uplift of the Central Apennines.  相似文献   

Three‐fold nature of coastal progradation during the Holocene eustatic highstand,Po Plain,Italy – close correspondence of stratal character with distribution patterns     

Alessandro Amorosi  Giulia Barbieri  Luigi Bruno  Bruno Campo  Tina M. Drexler  Wan Hong  Veronica Rossi  Irene Sammartino  Daniele Scarponi  Stefano Claudio Vaiani  Kevin M. Bohacs 《Sedimentology》2019,66(7):3029-3052

Although general trends in transgressive to highstand sedimentary evolution of river‐mouth coastlines are well‐known, the details of the turnaround from retrogradational (typically estuarine) to aggradational–progradational (typically coastal/deltaic) stacking patterns are not fully resolved. This paper examines the middle to late Holocene eustatic highstand succession of the Po Delta: its stratigraphic architecture records a complex pattern of delta outbuilding and coastal progradation that followed eustatic stabilization, since around 7·7 cal kyr bp . Sedimentological, palaeoecological (benthic foraminifera, ostracods and molluscs) and compositional criteria were used to characterize depositional conditions and sediment‐dispersal pathways within a radiocarbon‐dated chronological framework. A three‐stage progradation history was reconstructed. First, as soon as eustasy stabilized (7·7 to 7·0 cal kyr bp ), rapid bay‐head delta progradation (ca 5 m year^?1), fed mostly by the Po River, took place in a mixed, freshwater and brackish estuarine environment. Second, a dominantly aggradational parasequence set of beach‐barrier deposits in the lower highstand systems tract (7·0 to 2·0 cal kyr bp ) records the development of a shallow, wave‐dominated coastal system fed alongshore, with elongated, modestly crescent beaches (ca 2·5 m year^?1). Third, in the last 2000 years, the development of faster accreting and more rapidly prograding (up to ca 15 m year^?1) Po delta lobes occurred into 30 m deep waters (upper highstand systems tract). This study documents the close correspondence of sediment character with stratal distribution patterns within the highstand systems tract. Remarkable changes in sediment characteristics, palaeoenvironments and direction of sediment transport occur across a surface named the ‘A–P surface’. This surface demarcates a major shift from dominantly aggradational (lower highstand systems tract) to fully progradational (upper highstand systems tract) parasequence stacking. In the Po system, this surface also reflects evolution from a wave‐dominated to river‐dominated deltaic system. Identifying the A–P surface through detailed palaeoecological and compositional data can help guide interpretation of highstand systems tracts in the rock record, especially where facies assemblages and their characteristic geometries are difficult to discern from physical sedimentary structures alone.  相似文献

Astronomical tuning of the Tortonian ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr curve in the Mediterranean basin     

Mario Sprovieri  Mario Barbieri  Adriana Bellanca  Rodolfo Neri 《地学学报》2003,15(1):29-35

ABSTRACT This work presents a detailed ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr isotope curve for the interval 7.5–9.7 Ma obtained by a high-resolution analysis (sampling spacing of about 40 kyr) of an astronomically calibrated land-based sedimentary sequence exposed in the central Mediterranean area (Gibliscemi section, southern Sicily). The main aim is to verify a synchronous response of the Mediterranean seawater Sr isotope record to the oceanic forcing on the basis of multiple comparisons of the Gibliscemi record with published coeval ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr curves. A good correlation with the ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr data from the ODP site 926 (equatorial Atlantic ocean), considered to be the Sr chemostratigraphic reference section for the Late Miocene, and from the Pacific DSDP site 590B was registered. Conversely, the comparison of the Gibliscemi Sr isotope data with ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios from the coeval segment of the land-based Sardella section (eastern Mediterranean) shows important differences highlighting a local control on the seawater Sr isotope changes in semi-isolated subbasins within the Late Miocene Mediterranean.  相似文献   

Millennial-scale shifts in microtidal ecosystems during the Holocene: dynamics and drivers of change from the Po Plain coastal record (NE Italy)     

Veronica Rossi  Giulia Barbieri  Stefano Claudio Vaiani  Marco Cacciari  Luigi Bruno  Bruno Campo  Marco Marchesini  Silvia Marvelli  Alessandro Amorosi 《第四纪科学杂志》2021,36(6):961-979

Framed into a robust stratigraphic context, multivariate analyses on the Holocene palaeobiological record (pollen, benthic foraminifers, ostracods) of the Po coastal plain (NE Italy) allowed the investigation of microtidal ecosystems variability and driving parameters along a 35-km-long land–sea transect. Millennial-scale ecosystem shifts are documented by coeval changes in the meiofauna, reflecting variations in organic matter–water depth (shallow-marine environments) and degree of confinement-salinity (back-barrier settings). In-phase shifts of vegetation communities track unsteady water-table levels and river dynamics in freshwater palustrine areas. Five environmental–ecological stages followed one another crossing four tipping points that mark changes in relative sea level (RSL), climate and/or fluvial regime. At the culmination of Mediterranean RSL rise, after the 8200 event, remarkable growth of peatlands took place in the Po estuary, while low accumulation rates typified the shelf. At the transgressive–regressive turnaround (~7000 cal a bp ), the estuary turned into a delta plain with tidally influenced interdistributary embayments. River flow regime oscillations after the Climate Optimum (post-5000 cal a bp ) favoured isolation of the bays and the development of brackish wetlands surrounded by wooded peatlands. The youngest threshold (~800 cal a bp ), which led to the establishment of the modern delta, reflects a major avulsion of the Po River.  相似文献   

Fault zone structure and fluid–rock interaction of a high angle normal fault in Carrara marble (NW Tuscany,Italy)     

G. Molli  G. Cortecci  L. Vaselli  G. Ottria  A. Cortopassi  E. Dinelli  M. Mussi  M. Barbieri 《Journal of Structural Geology》2010,32(9):1334-1348

We studied the geometry, intensity of deformation and fluid–rock interaction of a high angle normal fault within Carrara marble in the Alpi Apuane NW Tuscany, Italy. The fault is comprised of a core bounded by two major, non-parallel slip surfaces. The fault core, marked by crush breccia and cataclasites, asymmetrically grades to the host protolith through a damage zone, which is well developed only in the footwall block. On the contrary, the transition from the fault core to the hangingwall protolith is sharply defined by the upper main slip surface. Faulting was associated with fluid–rock interaction, as evidenced by kinematically related veins observable in the damage zone and fluid channelling within the fault core, where an orange–brownish cataclasite matrix can be observed. A chemical and isotopic study of veins and different structural elements of the fault zone (protolith, damage zone and fault core), including a mathematical model, was performed to document type, role, and activity of fluid–rock interactions during deformation. The results of our studies suggested that deformation pattern was mainly controlled by processes associated with a linking-damage zone at a fault tip, development of a fault core, localization and channelling of fluids within the fault zone. Syn-kinematic microstructural modification of calcite microfabric possibly played a role in confining fluid percolation.  相似文献
