Six low abundance rock reference materials (basalt BIR-1, dunite DTS-1, dolerite DNC-1, peridotite PCC-1, serpentine UB-N and basalt TAFAHI) have been analysed for high field strength elements (Zr, Nb, Hf, Ta, Th and U), Rb, Sr, Mo, Sb, Cs, Tl and Bi at ng g⁻¹ levels (in rock) by magnetic sector inductively coupled plasma-mass spectrometry after HF/HClO₄ high pressure decomposition. The adopted method uses only indium as an internal standard. Detection limits were found to be in the range of 0.08 to 16.2 pg ml⁻¹ in solution (equivalent to 0.08 to 16.2 ng g⁻¹ in rock). Our data for high field strength elements, Rb, Sr, Mo, Sb, Cs, Tl and Bi for the six selected low abundance geological reference materials show general agreement with previously published data. Our Ta values in DTS-1 and PCC-1 (1.3 and 0.5 ng g⁻¹) are lower than in previously published studies, providing smooth primitive mantle distribution patterns. Lower values were also found for Tl in BIR-1, DTS-1 and PCC-1 (2, 0.4 and 0.8 ng g⁻¹). Compared with quadrupole ICP-MS studies, the proposed magnetic sector ICP-MS method can generally provide better detection limits, so that the measurement of high field strength elements, Rb, Sr, Mo, Sb, Cs, Tl and Bi at ng g⁻¹ levels can be achieved without pre-concentration, ion exchange separation or other specialised techniques.  相似文献

Filter-feeding ascidians (Ciona intestinalis) in a shallow cove: Implications of hydrodynamics for grazing impact     

Hans Ulrik Riisgård  Carsten Jürgensen  Torben Clausen 《Journal of Sea Research》1996,35(4):293-300

The grazing impact by a dense population of filter-feeding ascidians Ciona intestinalis on horizontally flowing water (driven by density circulation) in a shallow cove (Kertinge Nor, Denmark) has been described and quantified by means of a simple one-dimensional numerical model. The agreement between observations and modelled predictions was satisfactory. The applied numerical model has the following analytical solution in the idealized case: Cx = C₀e^−(fx/Y₂), where C_x = algal concentration at a downstream distance x, C₀ = initial concentration, f = F/v_c; F = area specific population filtration rate; v_c = current velocity; Y₂ = depth of mixed layer below halocline. The numerical model quantifies the actual grazing impact while the analytical model illustrates the governing physics in well-known terms. To describe situations with no current (i.e. stagnant water), we performed simulation studies in the laboratory and measured vertical profiles of algal cells over filter-feeding C. intestinalis. The results showed that phytoplankton became reduced in a near-bottom water layer of 20–30 cm thickness. Such water layers may develop in stagnant water (calm days and no advective currents), thus uncoupling the pelagic food and the filter feeders which within a short time will experience extremely meagre food conditions.  相似文献   

Seismic imaging and crustal architecture across the Lachlan Transverse Zone,a possible early cross‐cutting feature of eastern Australia     

D. M. Finlayson  R. J. Korsch  R. A. Glen  J. H. Leven  D. W. Johnstone 《Australian Journal of Earth Sciences》2013,60(2):311-321

A 2‐D crustal velocity model has been derived from a 1997 364 km north‐south wide‐angle seismic profile that passed from Ordovician volcanic and volcaniclastic rocks (Molong Volcanic Belt of the Macquarie Arc) in the north, across the Lachlan Transverse Zone into Ordovician turbidites and Early Devonian intrusive granitoids in the south. The Lachlan Transverse Zone is a proposed west‐northwest to east‐southeast structural feature in the Eastern Lachlan Orogen and is considered to be a possible early lithospheric feature controlling structural evolution in eastern Australia; its true nature, however, is still contentious. The velocity model highlights significant north to south lateral variations in subsurface crustal architecture in the upper and middle crust. In particular, a higher P‐wave velocity (6.24–6.32 km/s) layer identified as metamorphosed arc rocks (sensu lato) in the upper crust under the arc at 5–15 km depth is juxtaposed against Ordovician craton‐derived turbidites by an inferred south‐dipping fault that marks the southern boundary of the Lachlan Transverse Zone. Near‐surface P‐wave velocities in the Lachlan Transverse Zone are markedly less than those along other parts of the profile and some of these may be attributed to mid‐Miocene volcanic centres. In the middle and lower crust there are poorly defined velocity features that we infer to be related to the Lachlan Transverse Zone. The Moho depth increases from 37 km in the north to 47 km in the south, above an underlying upper mantle with a P‐wave velocity of 8.19 km/s. Comparison with velocity layers in the Proterozoic Broken Hill Block supports the inferred presence of Cambrian oceanic mafic volcanics (or an accreted mafic volcanic terrane) as substrate to this part of the Eastern Lachlan Orogen. Overall, the seismic data indicate significant differences in crustal architecture between the northern and southern parts of the profile. The crustal‐scale P‐wave velocity differences are attributed to the different early crustal evolution processes north and south of the Lachlan Transverse Zone.  相似文献   

Boninites as windows into trace element mobility in subduction zones   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

Stephan König  Carsten Münker  Stephan Schuth  Ambre Luguet  Jonathan Kuduon 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》2010,74(2):684-338

Boninites are subduction-related rocks originating from re-melting of highly depleted mantle sources left after extraction of tholeiitic melts. Due to their depleted nature, the incompatible trace element inventory of boninites is virtually entirely inherited from slab components without a significant contribution from the refractory mantle wedge. Thus, boninites constitute an excellent window into processes controlling trace element mobilization at the slab-mantle wedge interface. In order to constrain the behaviour of trace elements in subduction zones with a special emphasis on high field strength elements, we analyzed low-Ca boninites and associated tholeiitic basalts from Cape Vogel, Papua New Guinea (PNG) and compare them with compositions of high-Ca boninites and associated tholeiitic basalts from Cyprus. High-precision HFSE (Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf, W) concentration data of the boninites and associated tholeiitic basalts were obtained by isotope dilution. Major, trace element, and Sr-Nd-Hf-Pb isotope compositions clearly document a significant contribution of slab-derived melts involved in the petrogenesis of the PNG boninites, whereas only fluid-like subduction components were involved in the petrogenesis of the PNG basalts and the Cyprus suite. Low-Ca boninites from PNG are derived from a more refractory mantle source (∼21% depletion) than the high-Ca boninites from Cyprus (∼11% depletion) and their respective tholeiitic precursors (<10% depletion). In agreement with the more depleted nature of their mantle source, boninites exhibit a significantly stronger overprint by slab components. High-precision HFSE data indicate that, in comparison to LILE, a somewhat lower but measurable mobilization of all investigated HFSE in both slab-derived fluids and melts is evident. Modelling calculations demonstrate that the subduction components dominate the LILE budget and also largely control LREE and HFSE abundances in the boninite sources. Notably, the increasing influence of slab-derived fluids results in a decrease of the negative Nb-Ta anomaly, most likely reflecting a similar mobility of Nb-Ta and LREE at higher pressures near the critical point of fluid-melt miscibility. Ratios of Zr/Hf and Nb/Ta in the melt-like slab components dominating in the sources of the PNG boninites were probably fractionated in equilibrium with garnet-amphibolitic mafic oceanic crust. HFSE ratios in the Cyprus boninites are best explained by dehydration of subducted pelagic sediments in the absence of Ti-rich phases such as rutile. Our results also confirm previous assertions that the mobility of HFSE decreases in the order Sb > W-Mo > Nb-Ta > Zr-Hf. Furthermore, Mo-W systematics may provide a potential novel tracer for the amount, composition and redox state of subducted pelagic sediments that contribute to the geochemical budget of intra-oceanic arc systems.  相似文献

Tidal correction of hydrographic measurements     

Carsten W. Brockmann  Dr. Joachim W. Dippner 《Ocean Dynamics》1987,40(6):241-260

Summary A simple procedure is presented to eliminate the influence of tidal oscillation from hydrographic measurements. This is done with a transformation from a co-ordinate system fixed in space to a co-ordinate system fixed in time using results of a numerical tidal model. The procedure is applied to a hydrographic survey in the German Bight. The hydrographic structure transformed onto a co-ordinate system fixed in time is much more similar to the structure obtained by satellite pictures and shows dynamical processes much clearer than in a co-ordinate system fixed in space.

Gezeitenkorrektur von hydrographischen Messungen

Zusammenfassung In dieser Arbeit wird ein Verfahren vorgestellt, das hydrographische Messungen vom Einfluß periodischer Variationen durch die Gezeiten bereinigt. Dies geschieht unter Benutzung von Ergebnissen eines numerischen Modells durch eine Transformation einer gemessenen hydrographischen Struktur von einem ortsfesten in ein zeitfestes System. Dieses Verfahren wird auf eine hydrographische Aufnahme der Deutschen Bucht angewandt. Die auf ein zeitfestes Koordinatensystem transformierte hydrographische Messung zeigt sehr viel Ähnlichkeit mit einer synoptischen Messung, die bei einem Satellitenüberflug gewonnen wurde. Bestimmte dynamische Prozesse in der Deutschen Bucht lassen sich zudem im zeitfesten Koordinatensystem besser erkennen als im ortsfesten Koordinatensystem.

Correction de l'influence de la marée sur les mesures hydrologiques

Résumé L'article présente une méthode simple pour éliminer l'influence de la marée sur les mesures hydrologiques. Cela est obtenu par le passage d'un système de coordonnées fixe dans l'espace à un système de coordonnées fixe dans le temps utilisant les résultats d'un modèle numérique de marée. La méthode est appliquée à un levé hydrologique dans la Baie Allemande. La structure hydrologique obtenue dans un système de coordonnées fixe dans le temps est beaucoup plus proche de celle qui est obtenue par les images satellites et décrit le processus dynamique beaucoup plus clairement que dans un système de coordonnées fixe dans l'espace.

Identification of a collapsing protostar     

Neal J. Evans II  Shudong Zhou  Carsten Kömpe  C. M. Walmsley 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1994,212(1-2):139-145

The globular molecular cloud B335 contains a single, deeply embedded, far-infrared source. Our recent observations of H₂CO and CS lines toward this source provide direct kinematic evidence for collapse. Both the intensity and detailed shape of the line profiles match those expected from inside-out collapse inside a radius of 0.036 pc. The collapse began about 1.5 × 10⁵ years ago, similar to the onset of the outflow. The mass accretion rate is about 10 times the outflow rate, and about 0.4M should have now accumulated in the star and disk. Because B335 rotates only very slowly, any disk would still be very small (about 3 AU). The accretion luminosity should be adequate to power the observed luminosity. Consequently, we believe that B335 is indeed a collapsing protostar.Paper presented at the Conference onPlanetary Systems: Formation, Evolution, and Detection held 7–10 December, 1992 at CalTech, Pasadena, California, U.S.A.  相似文献   

A Global Dynamic Model for the Neolithic Transition     

Kai W. Wirtz  Carsten Lemmen 《Climatic change》2003,59(3):333-367

During the Holocene strong gradients in the distribution of technologyincluding subsistence ways emerged on a global scale.These patterns were further amplified in historic times and are stillvisible through worldwide differences in national wealth.In order to evaluate major factors responsible for the shift fromforaging to food production we here employ quantitative methods bydeveloping a deterministic but simple model. After compiling existing maps of potential vegetation at 5000 BP theinhabited world is split into 197 regions with homogeneous environmentalconditions. Suitable variables for the macro-economic and culturaldevelopment in the Neolithic period are found to be farming to hunting-gatheringratio, number of agricultural economies and a technological development index.The model explicitly describes economic adaptation, growth and migrationof human populations together with the spread of their cultural characteristics; it accounts for over-exploitation of natural resources, crowdingmortality and the climate variability on a millennium scale.In a thorough model validation region specific trajectories are compared toarchaeological evidence revealing a high correspondence. Major parts of the knownsequence of Neolithic centers including the timing differences are robustlyreproduced. A series of known problems in prehistory is discussedcomprising the lag between domestication and full scale farming, the off-levelingof the technological boost following the transition, the emergence ofdistinct migration waves and sensitivity to climate fluctuations.Not mere population pressure but continuous innovation and competition betweensubsistence strategies is identified as a prime mover of agricultural development.The results suggest that few aspects of biogeography may have determined theobserved continental gradients in the number of domesticable species ultimatelyleading to an increasing differentiation in technology and demography.  相似文献
