Solubility behavior of alkali aluminosilicate components in aqueous fluids and silicate melts at high pressure and temperature     

Bjorn O. Mysen  Lora Armstrong 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》2002,66(12):2287-2297

The solubility behavior of K₂O, Na₂O, Al₂O₃, and SiO₂ in silicate-saturated aqueous fluid and coexisting H₂O-saturated silicate melts in the systems K₂O-Al₂O₃-SiO₂-H₂O and Na₂O-Al₂O₃-SiO₂-H₂O has been examined in the 1- to 2-GPa pressure range at 1100°C. Glasses of Na- and K-tetrasilicate compositions with 0, 3, and 6 mol% Al₂O₃ were used as starting materials. In both systems, the oxides dissolve incongruently in aqueous fluid and silicate melt. When recalculated to an anhydrous basis, the aqueous fluids are enriched in alkalis and depleted in silica and alumina relative to their proportions in the starting materials. The extent of incongruency is more pronounced in the Na₂O-Al₂O₃-SiO₂-H₂O system than in the K₂O-Al₂O₃-SiO₂-H₂O system.The partition coefficients of the oxides, D_oxide^fluid/melt, are linear and positive functions of the oxide concentration in the fluid for each composition. There is a slight dependence of the partition coefficients on bulk composition. No effect of pressure could be discerned. For alkali metals, the fluid/melt partition coefficients range from 0.06 to 0.8. For Al₂O₃ this range is 0.01 to 0.2, and for SiO₂, it is 0.01 to 0.32. For all compositions, D_K2O^fluid/melt∼D_Na2O^fluid/melt>D_SiO2^fluid/melt>D_Al2O3^fluid/melt for the same oxide concentration in the fluid. D_K2O^fluid/melt, D_Na2O^fluid/melt, and D_SiO2^fluid/melt correlate negatively with the Al₂O₃ content of the systems. This correlation is consistent with a solubility model of alkalis that involve associated KOH°, NaOH°, silicate, and aluminate complexes.  相似文献   

A possible effect of melt structure on the Mg-Fe partitioning between olivine and melt     

Ikuo Kushiro  Bjorn O Mysen 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》2002,66(12):2267-2272

Partitioning of Mg and Fe²⁺ between olivine and mafic melts has been determined experimentally for eight different synthetic compositions in the temperature range between 1335 and 1425°C at 0.1 MPa pressure and at fo₂ ∼1 log unit below the quartz-fayalite-magnetite buffer. The partition coefficient [K_D = (Fe²⁺/Mg)^ol/(Fe²⁺/Mg)^melt] increases from 0.25 to 0.34 with increasing depolymerization of melt (NBO/T of melt from 0.25-1.2), and then decreases with further depolymerization of melt (NBO/T from 1.2-2.8). These variations are similar to those observed in natural basalt-peridotite systems. In particular, the variation in NBO/T ranges for basaltic-picritic melts (0.4-1.5) is nearly identical to that obtained in the present experiments. Because the present experiments were carried out at constant pressure (0.1 MPa) and in a relatively small temperature range (90°C), the observed variations of Mg and Fe²⁺ partitioning between olivine and melt must depend primarily on the composition or structure of melt. Such variations of K_D may depend on the relative proportions of four-, five-, and six-coordinated Mg²⁺ and Fe²⁺ in melt as a function of degree of NBO/T.  相似文献   

A Numerical Study Of Nocturnal Wavelike Motion In Forests     

Xinzhang Hu  Xuhui Lee  David E. Stevens  Ronald B. Smith 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》2002,102(2):199-223

In this paper, we use a two-dimensional eddy-resolved model to investigate the instability of a parallel shear flow in a stably stratified boundary layer whose lower domain is occupied by a canopy. The results support our contention that wave motion in the canopy is initiated by shear in an air layer near the treetops. Significant modification by the wave motion of the mean velocity and temperature fields is found even before the wave reaches saturation. The wave fluxes of momentum and heat are not constant with height. Downwind tilting braids are found at the finite amplitude stage of the wave growth and could persist after wave breaking; these downwind tilting structures are believed to be the same as the temperature microfronts reported in the literature. We also present an analysis of the velocity and temperature fields of an observed wave event in the time-height domain and show that the simulation has captured the broad features of the observation.  相似文献   

Constraints on Infrasound Scaling and Attenuation Relations from Soviet Explosion Data     

J. L. Stevens  I. I. Divnov  D. A. Adams  J. R. Murphy  V. N. Bourchik 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》2002,159(5):1045-1062

—?The Institute for the Dynamics of the Geospheres (IDG) in Moscow, Russia, contains an archive of infrasound recordings from Soviet atmospheric nuclear tests that were conducted in 1957 and 1961, and has digitized the highest quality records from this data set. We have measured the infrasound signals from these records and compared them with previously developed scaling and attenuation relations. We find that the data are in best agreement with a scaling and attenuation relation developed by the Los Alamos National Laboratory (LANL) which can be written as logP = 3.37 + 0.68 logW? 1.36logR where P is zero to peak pressure amplitude in Pascals, W is the yield in kilotons, and R is the source to receiver distance in kilometers. We use the scaling relations to define an infrasound magnitude, and to estimate the detection capability of the International Monitoring System (IMS) being developed as part of the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty (CTBT). The detection threshold for the proposed 60-station IMS network is estimated to be slightly higher than the CTBT design goal of 1 kiloton in some locations.  相似文献   

Predicting seasonal ocean variability around New Zealand using a coupled ocean-atmosphere model     

Catherine O. de Burgh-Day  Claire M. Spillman  Craig Stevens  Oscar Alves  Graham Rickard 《新西兰海洋与淡水研究杂志》2019,53(2):201-221

We present a first assessment of the Sea Surface Temperature (SST) and 300m Heat Content (HC) ensemble mean skill of the Australian Community Climate and Earth-System Simulator-Seasonal v1.0 (ACCESS-S1) around New Zealand on seasonal timescales, using a set of retrospective ensemble forecasts for 1990-2012. This was verified against Reynolds AVHRR analysis and Bluelink ReANalysis 3.5 (BRAN3.5). For inshore areas with depth <300m, the model shows skill forecasting for summer at a lead time of 0 months, with 66% and 65% of model grid cells having correlation coefficients exceeding 0.6 for SST and 300m HC respectively. Regions of lower skill seem to be associated with the model representation of the complex and variable frontal systems around New Zealand, and an overly-strong response to the El Niño Southern-Oscillation (ENSO). Nevertheless, the skill of ACCESS-S1 around New Zealand suggests there is potential for the development of useful seasonal forecast products for the region.  相似文献

Some exciting developments have been made recently, in the field of digital image rectification, which are of interest to both the photogrammetric specialist and non-specialist. This paper outlines the technical processes involved in generating digitally rectified images, as well as raising some of the issues that are becoming apparent when applying this modern technology to archaeological and architectural presentation.  相似文献   

Structure and Dynamical Influence of Water Vapor in the Lower Tropical Troposphere     

Bjorn Stevens  Hélène Brogniez  Christoph Kiemle  Jean-Lionel Lacour  Cyril Crevoisier  Johannes Kiliani 《Surveys in Geophysics》2017,38(6):1371-1397

In situ, airborne and satellite measurements are used to characterize the structure of water vapor in the lower tropical troposphere—below the height, \(z_*,\) of the triple-point isotherm, \(T_*.\) The measurements are evaluated in light of understanding of how lower-tropospheric water vapor influences clouds, convection and circulation, through both radiative and thermodynamic effects. Lower-tropospheric water vapor, which concentrates in the first few kilometers above the boundary layer, controls the radiative cooling profile of the boundary layer and lower troposphere. Elevated moist layers originating from a preferred level of convective detrainment induce a profile of radiative cooling that drives circulations which reinforce such features. A theory for this preferred level of cumulus termination is advanced, whereby the difference between \(T_*\) and the temperature at which primary ice forms gives a ‘first-mover advantage’ to glaciating cumulus convection, thereby concentrating the regions of the deepest convection and leading to more clouds and moisture near the triple point. A preferred level of convective detrainment near \(T_*\) implies relative humidity reversals below \(z*\) which are difficult to identify using retrievals from satellite-borne microwave and infrared sounders. Isotopologues retrievals provide a hint of such features and their ability to constrain the structure of the vertical humidity profile merits further study. Nonetheless, it will likely remain challenging to resolve dynamically important aspects of the vertical structure of water vapor from space using only passive sensors.  相似文献   

Seasonal air temperature variations retrieved from a Geladaindong ice core, Tibetan Plateau     

ZHANG Yongjun  KANG Shichang  QIN Dahe  REN Jiawen  ZHANG Yulan  Bjorn GRIGHOLM  Paul MAYEWSKI 《地理学报》2007,17(4):431-441

A 70-year history of precipitation δ18O record has been retrieved using an ice core drilled from a plat portion of the firn area in the Guoqu Glacier (33o34′37.8″ N, 91o10′35.3″ E, 5720 m a.s.l.) on Mt. Geladaindong (the source region of Yangtze River) during October and November, 2005. Based on the seasonality of δ18O records and the significant positive rela-tionships between monsoon/non-monsoon δ18O values and summer/spring air temperature from the nearby meteorological stations, the history of summer and spring air temperature have been reconstructed for the last 70 years. The results show that both summer and spring air temperature variations present similar trends during the last 70 years. Regression analysis indicates that the slope of the temperature-δ18O relationship is 1.3℃/‰ for non-monsoon δ18O values and spring air temperature, and 0.4℃/‰ for monsoon δ18O values and summer air temperature. Variation of air temperature recorded in the ice core is consistent with that in the Northern Hemisphere (NH), however, the warming trend in the Geladaindong region is more intense than that in the NH, reflecting a higher sensitivity to global warming in the high elevation regions. In addition, warming trend is greater in spring than in summer.  相似文献
