Organic‐rich deposits, uncovered during overburden removal from mantled gypsum karst at Knocknacran opencast gypsum mine, Co. Monaghan, are the best candidate to date for a last interglacial record in Ireland. The two till and organic‐rich deposits (preserved at different quarry elevations) were emplaced on to a Tertiary dolerite surface during high‐energy flood events and subsequently folded and faulted by movement towards sinkholes in underlying gypsum. Uranium–thorium disequilibrium dating suggests that the organic‐rich deposits in the upper section were hydrologically isolated at ca. 41 ka and those in the lower section at ca. 86 ka. Interpretation of the pollen content, although tentative because of the depositional and post‐depositional history of the material, suggests that the organic material originated in a warm stage possibly warmer than the post‐Eemian interstadials. The unusual setting of preservation may indicate that in situ, last interglacial deposits have generally been removed by erosion in Ireland. Copyright © 2004 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

Protostellar angular momentum transport by spiral density waves     

Chi Yuan  Patrick Cassen 《Icarus》1985,64(3):435-447

The gravitational collapse of molecular clouds or cloud cores is expected to lead to the formation of stars that begin their lives in a state of rapid rotation. It is known that, in at least some specific cases, rapidly rotating, slf-gravitating bodies are subject to instabilities that cause them to assume ellipsoidal shapes. In this paper we investigate the consequences of such instabilities on the angular momentum evolution of a star in the process of formation from a collapsing cloud, and surrounded by a protostellar disk, with a view toward applications to the formation of the Solar System. We use a specific model of star formation to demonstrate the possibility that such a star would become unstable, that the resulting distortion of the star would generate spiral density waves in the circumstellar disk, and that the torque associated with these waves would regulate the angular momentum of the star as it feeds angular momentum to the disk. We conclude that the angular momentum so transported to the disk would not spread the disk to, say, Solar System dimensions, by the action of the spiral density waves alone. However, a viscous disk could effectively extract stellar angular momentum and attain Solar System size. Our results also indicate that viscous disks could feed mass and angular momentum to a growing protostar in such a manner that distortions of the star would occur before gravitational torques could balance the influx of angular momentum. In other situations (in which the viscosity was small), a gap could be cleared between the disk and star.  相似文献   

右江复合盆地的沉积特征及其构造演化     

曾允孚  刘文均  陈洪德  郑荣才  张锦泉  李孝全  蒋廷操 《南方国土资源》1992,(4)

位于华南褶皱带南缘的右江盆地,其发展可分为两个不同的阶段。它的轮廓和结构,与NW向及NE向同沉积断裂关系密切。盆地内的沉积物,分别由特征不同的非补偿性和补偿性沉积相组成两个双层结构。盆地内火山活动发育,也明显的分为两个阶段。海西期,古特提斯洋的发展使哀牢山洋盆开裂,导致了右江地区在拉张应力条件下出现若干NW向裂陷带,这时的盆地具有大陆边缘裂谷特点。东吴运动后开始的印支期,区域应力条件发生变化。滨大平洋构造的发生,使盆地轮廓和结构发生明显变化,与此同时开始的哀牢山洋盆向NE方向的俯冲消减作用,使盆地在新的挤压条件下再次发生张裂和拗陷。进入了弧后盆地发展阶段。印支期末,盆地封闭。  相似文献

Carbon isotope fractionation between graphite and diamond during shock experiments     

Teruyuki Maruoka  Christian Koeberl  Jun‐ichi Matsuda  Yasuhiko Syono 《Meteoritics & planetary science》2003,38(8):1255-1262

Abstract— Carbon isotopic compositions were measured for shock‐produced diamond and shocked graphite formed at peak pressures ranging from 37 to 52 GPa. The δ¹³C values of diamonds produced in a sealed container were generally lower than that of the initial graphite. The differences in the carbon isotopic composition between initial graphite and shocked graphite/diamond may reflect kinetic isotopic fractionation during the oxidation of the graphite/diamond and/or analytical artifacts possibly induced by impurities in the samples. The pressure effect on the isotopic fractionations between graphite and diamond can be estimated from the δ¹³C values of impurity‐free diamonds produced using a vented container from which gases, including oxygen, in pore spaces escaped during or after the diamond formation (e.g., 0.039 ± 0.085‰ at a peak pressure of 52 GPa). Any isotopic fractionation induced by shock conversion of graphite to diamond is too small to be detected in natural shock‐induced diamond‐graphite systems related to terrestrial impact cratering processes.  相似文献
