Structure,diversity and stability of two oligochaete communities according to sedimentary inputs in Lake Geneva (Switzerland)   总被引：3，自引：1，他引：3

Two oligochaete communities were sampled monthly during one year in two 35 m deep locations of Lake Geneva (Switzerland). Organic sedimentation was lower and less variable in station 1 than in station 2 (157 versus 214 g C m⁻²yr⁻¹). The oligochaete community in station 1 was more diverse and more stable (persistent over time) than in station 2, as long as the organic sedimentation was low. Diversity and stability decreased in station 1 when the organic sedimentation increased, and during anOscillatoria bloom. The less diverse community in station 2 was more resistent to these changes. Diversity was associated with environmental stability, but resistance to perturbation was greater in the simpler community which is adapted to changing environmental conditions. The value of oligochaete communities as an indicator of the level of eutrophication was reassessed according to our present data. Changes in the structure of oligochaete communities were related to changes in sedimentation processes.  相似文献   

Aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons in benthic invertebrates from two sites in Antarctica     

Andrew Clarke  Robin Law 《Marine pollution bulletin》1981,12(1):10-14

Samples of marine benthic invertebrates collected from two sites in the Antarctic have been analysed for both aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons in order to establish baseline concentrations for some classes of hydrocarbons.Samples from Signy Island, a pristine site, contained low concentrations of the hydrocarbons determined, whereas those from King Edward Cove, South Georgia, contained significantly higher concentrations. King Edward Cove has a known history of pollution from whaling operations.Platt & Mackie (1979) have suggested that the hydrocarbons in sediments from King Edward Cove are a result of the world-wide dissemination of the pyrolysis products of fossil fuels. Our work suggests, in contrast, that the hydrocarbons in the benthos are derived from local sources.  相似文献   

Pyroxene geothermometry and geobarometry: experimental and thermodynamic evaluation of some subsolidus phase relations involving pyroxenes in the system CaO-MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂     

Claude T. Herzberg 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1978,42(7):945-957

One petrogenetic grid for plagioclase-, spinel- and garnet-lherzolite analogues in the system CaO-MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ is presented from 1 bar to 30 kbar and 400 to 1500°C. Another grid for olivine-gabbro, spinel-gabbro and garnet-pyroxenite analogues in the same system is presented from 1 bar to 25 kbar and 500 to 1500°C. Both grids show the distribution of the mineral assemblages and the variations in the composition of clinopyroxene with temperature and pressure. They were developed by applying simple thermodynamic mixing models of clinopyroxene to experimentally determined clino-pyroxene compositions.Calcium tschermak's pyroxene (CaAl₂SiO₆) in complex CaMgSi₂O₆-CaAl₂SiO₆-Mg₂Si₂O₆ clinopyroxenes is best represented by a local charge balance mixing model where Enthalpy and entropy changes of subsolidus reactions involving variations in the CaAl₂SiO₆ and Mg₂Si₂O₆ content of clinopyroxene are interdependent due to nonideal mixing of these two end-members. CaAl₂SiO₆ can strongly reduce the mutual solubility of clinopyroxene and orthopyroxene at moderate pressures and high temperatures. Failure to take this into account can result in temperature underestimates (up to 150°C) of spinel-lherzolites, garnet-pyroxenites, low pressure garnet-lherzolites, spinel-gabbros, and high pressure plagioclase-lherzolites and olivine-gabbros. However, at temperatures and pressures where the Al₂O₃ content of clinopyroxene is low (e.g. garnet-lherzolite nodules in kimberlite), the mutual solubility is adequantely represented by experimental results in the system CaO-MgO-SiO₂.  相似文献   

⁸⁷Rb-⁸⁶Sr age of rocks from the Apollo 15 landing site and significance of internal isochrons     

Jean Louis Birck  Serge Fourcade  Claude J. Allegre 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1975,26(1):29-35

Internal isochrons for two Apollo 15 rocks give an age of(3.34 ± 0.09)and(3.46 ± 0.04) × 10⁹ years with an identical⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr initial ratio of 0.69928. Considering the possibility for the line obtained in a⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr,⁸⁷Rb/⁸⁶Sr diagram to be a mixing line, the significance of these results are discussed.  相似文献

The NdSr isotopic correlation in mantle materials and geodynamic consequences     

Claude J. Allegre  Dalila Ben Othman  Mireille Polve  Pierre Richard 《Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors》1979,19(4):293-306

The neodymium-strontium isotopic correlation observed in most of the Earth mantle materials is evaluated by means of direct modelling. Several geochemical models are quantitatively developed to explain the observations. The main results of this modelling are that such a correlation is not geochemically trivial and that it corresponds to specific conditions in chemical fractionation. These specific conditions seem to be satisfied by solid-liquid partitioning in magmatic conditions. The discussion of the experimental data supports a continuous convecting-magmatic fractionation model for a large proportion of the mantle.  相似文献   

Neodymium and strontium isotope study of ophiolite and orogenic lherzolite petrogenesis     

Pierre Richard  Claude J. Allegre 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1980,47(1):65-74

Neodymium isotopic analyses have been measured on nine ophiolites and four orogenic lherzolites. ε_Nd varies from +12 to +3 in the ophiolites and from +18 to +2 in the orogenic lherzolites. The majority of the analyses plot on a ε_Nd-ε_Sr correlation line as defined by Nd and Sr isotopic analyses of oceanic basalts. However, certain ophiolitic and lherzolitic samples exhibit high⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios and as such lie to the right of the correlation line towards seawater compositions.From these data one can postulate several origins for ophiolites including that of mid-ocean ridges and ocean islands. If the orogenic lherzolites are interpreted as representative of the mantle occurring below active ridges a more complex model is required involving mantle heterogeneity and multi-episodic chemical fractionation starting prior to 2 Ga ago.  相似文献

Aragonite dissolution on the Bermuda pedestal: Its depth and geochemical significance     

Robert A. Berner  Elizabeth K. Berner  Robin S. Keir 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1976,30(2):169-178

The depth distribution of pteropod and planktonic foram tests, and fine-grained (<62 μm) aragonite, high-Mg calcite (12 mode mol.% MgCO₃), and low-Mg calcite has been determined for surface sediments of an area of the eastern slope of the Bermuda pedestal. Over the range 1800–3000 m, fine-grained aragonite and fine-grained high-Mg calcite gradually disappear relative to fine-grained low-Mg calcite, and pteropods gradually disappear relative to planktonic forams. This is interpreted as preferential dissolution of aragonite (and high-Mg calcite) relative to low-Mg calcite over this depth range. Coarse aragonitic debris derived from shallow-water organisms living on the Bermuda platform does not show consistent disappearance over the same depth zone. Chemical analyses of bottom water samples taken at the same time as some of the sediment samples indicate that the degree of saturation with respect to aragonite Ω_A over the zone of aragonite disappearance ranges from 0.55 to 0.85; i.e. major dissolution occurs only at Ω_A values distinctly less than one. These results lend credence to the hypothesis that CaCO₃ dissolution in the oceans, both as aragonite and as calcite, takes place mainly as a response to complex chemical kinetic phenomena and not as a result of the simple attainment of undersaturation (thermodynamic hypothesis) or the resuspension of bottom sediment (hydrodynamic hypothesis).  相似文献
