Hydrochemistry,origin and evolution of sedimentary subsurface fluids: II. Early diagenetic pore-water evolution in high sedimentation-rate offshore basins     

Reinhard Hesse 《中国地球化学学报》1987,6(1):1-18

High sedimentation-rate basins are characteristic of the continental margins, where sedimentation rates up to 500m/Ma and more are no exception. The sediments are rich in organic matter and undergo a well-established sequence of bacterial oxidation reactions, starting at the sediment/water interface with: (1) the oxidation zone (absent in euxinic basins), which is followed downwards by (2) the nitrate reduction zone, (3) the sulfate reduction zone, (4) the carbonate reduction zone, (5) the fermentation zone and (6) the decarboxylation zone, which marks the onset of thermocatalytic reactions characteristic of the intermediate stage (and deeper stages) of diagenesis. This sequence of bacterially mediated organic-matter decomposition reactions in rapidly deposited sediments on the continental margins is well reflected in the vertical trends of pore-water chemistry. Carbon isotopic fractionation permits to distinguish between zones (1) to (3) with negative δ¹³C values for the CO₂ generated, and between zones (4) and (5) with increasingly heavier carbon-isotopes in CO₂ (up to + 15 to + 25‰ δ¹³C). The formation of gas-hydrates causes characteristic chemical and isotopic signatures in pore waters retrieved from hydrate-bearing sediments. After hydrate decomposition (in the sampling process or at the base of hydrate zones) marked chlorimity decreases accompanied by increases in heavy oxygen isotopes are observed. These are distinctly different from the effects of meteoric water influx, which are not accompanied by positive δ¹⁸O values. The opposite trend of increasing salinity at shallow burial depths, rather than pore-waters freshening, is observed in the vicinity of evaporites.  相似文献   

The influence of numerical advection schemes on the results of ocean general circulation models     

Rüdiger Gerdes  Cornelia Köberle  Jürgen Willebrand 《Climate Dynamics》1991,5(4):211-226

The dependence of results from coarse-resolution models of the North Atlantic circulation on the numerical advection algorithm is studied. In particular, the sensitivity of parameters relevant for climate simulations as e.g., meridional transport of mass and heat and main thermocline thickness is investigated. Three algorithms were considered: (a) a central difference scheme with constant values for horizontal and vertical diffusion, (b) an upstream scheme with no explicit diffusion, and (c) a flux-corrected transport (FCT) scheme with constant and strictly isopycnal diffusion. The temporal evolution of the three models on time scales of centuries is markedly different, the upstream scheme resulting in much shorter adjustment time whereas the central difference scheme is slower and controlled by vertical diffusion rather than advection. In the steady state, the main thermocline structure is much less diffusive in the FCT calculation which also has much lower heat transport. Both horizontal circulation and overturning in the meridional-vertical plane are strongest in the upstream-model. The results are discussed in terms of the effective vertical (diapycnal) mixing in the different models. A significant increase in vertical resolution would be required to eliminate the high sensitivity due to the numerical algorithms, and allow physically motivated mixing formulations to become effective.This paper was presented at the International Conference on Modelling of Global Climate Change and Variability, held in Hamburg 11–15 September 1989 under the auspices of the Meteorological Institute of the University of Hamburg and the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology.

Präorogene Versenkungstiefe und Orogenese als Diagenesefaktoren für altpaläozoische Kontinentalrandbildungen der Nördlichen Appalachen in Quebec,Kanada     

Reinhard Hesse  Olugbenga Ogunyomi 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1980,69(2):546-566

This paper presents data and preliminary interpretations on the diagenesis of Early Paleozoic continental margin deposits along a traverse of the Quebec Appalachians near Quebec City, Canada. Regional variations in diagenesis were studied using the thermal maturation of organic matter in shales (reflectance measured on asphaltic bitumen, 105 samples) and illite crystallinity (330 samples). These revealed a regional southeastward increase in grade from the late middle and late stage of diagenesis to epimetamorphism, which is reflected in the distinction of four zones: Zone I representing the late middle diagenetic stage has a mean reflectance in oil (R₀) between 1.0 and 1.5% and illite crystallinity between 5.5 and 8.0 mm. Zone II (late diagenetic stage) is characterized by R₀=1.5–2.6% and illite crystallinity between 3.5 and 5.5 mm. Anomalously poor illite crystallinities in Zone II (i. e. 5.5 to 8.0 mm) were obtained for black shales, in which improvement of crystallinity lags behind red and green shales. Zone II is subdivided into subzones IIA and IIB. In the former, reflectance and illite crystallinity increase, within individual nappes, as a function of age or depth of burial. In the latter no such dependence is observed, instead diagenetic grade increases regionally in a southeastward direction as it does in zones III and IV. Zone III represents the anchizone in which observed reflectance values R₀ range from 2.6 to 4.0% and illite crystallinities from 2.0 to 3.1 mm. In Zone IV (epizone) illite crystallinity is less than 2.0 mm (In terms of reflectance the anchi-zone/epizone boundary was not defined). Zones I and IIA are anomalous in that lower tectonic units are diagenetically less altered than higher tectonic units: R₀ varies from 1.71 to 2.30% for the highest tectonic unit (Cambrian Chaudière Nappe), 1.53 to 1.90% (Cambro-Ordovician Bacchus Nappe) and 1.08 to 1.46% (Lower Ordovician Pointe-de-Lévy Nappe) for the middle tectonic units, and 1.01 to 1.15% for the lowest tectonic unit (Middle Ordovician Quebec Promotory Nappe). Thermal maturation and mineral diagenesis in zone IIA are probably due solely to sedimentary burial at the original site of deposition (by an estimated 6 to 7 km of younger sediments) because in this zone the highest diagenetic grade occurs in the highest tectonic unit. Diagenesis in the nappes of zone I probably required additional tectonic burial by the higher nappes because original sedimentary thicknesses that once overlay these Lower and Middle Ordovician rocks appear insufficient to have caused the observed degree of diagenesis. Diagenesis in zone IIA, therefore, was most likely formed entirely before orogenesis; in zone I it is probably partly pre-orogenic in origin and has been transported during nappe-movement. In contrast, diagenesis and metamorphism in zones IIB to IV are interpreted as related to regional synorogenic heating in conjunction with the Taconic orogeny. Thermal maturation levels in zone I indicate that the rocks have not yet passed the “oil window” which is of interest for petroleum exploration in Quebec. An extended English version of this paper is in preparation for the Bulletin of Canadian Petroleum Geology (Ogunyomi et al., ms.).  相似文献

Tracing sediment pathways by zircon fission track analysis: Oligocene marine connections in Central Europe     

Cornelia Spiegel  Joachim Kuhlemann  Wolfgang Frisch 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》2007,96(2):363-374

In this study, we use contrasting zircon fission track age signatures of Alpine detritus and detritus derived from the Variscan realm to trace sediment pathways in Central Europe. Our data show that the Molasse Basin was connected with the Rhine Graben Sea during the Mid-Oligocene, thus joining the North Sea to the Paratethys. Within the Rhine Graben Sea, fairly strong south–north directed currents existed, transporting sand-sized Alpine detritus nearly 300 km towards the north. A connection between the Rhône-Bresse Graben and the Rhine Graben and/or the French Molasse Basin and the Swiss Molasse Basin, by contrast, is not supported by the fission track data. This may be explained by the existence of submarine rises that hampered the transport of sand-sized sediment towards the north/northeast.  相似文献   

Nebel- und Sichtverhältnisse in Ober- und Mittelitalien     

Prof. Dr. habil. W. Hesse 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1954,27(1):179-189

Zusammenfassung Dertägliche Gang der Nebel- und Sichtverhältnisse zwischen Mailand und Rom wurde verglichen. Es ergaben sich sehr ausgeprägte Merkmale. Gute Sichten traten viel häufiger an der küstennahen Station Rom und viel seltener an der oberitalienischen Binnenstation Mailand auf, während bei schlechten Sichten und Nebel zu allen Tageszeiten die Verhältnisse umgekehrt liegen. Dermonatliche Verlauf der Nebelhäufigkeit wurde für Ober- und Mittelitalien kartiert. Im Winter ergaben sich Nebelzentren, deren auffallendstes mit 15 Nebeltagen im Dezember bei Bologna zu finden ist. Der Sommer weist einzelne, sehr schwache Nebelzentren bis nur 2 Nebeltage im Juni auf. Im monatlichen Verlauf werden dann weiterhin Nebelhäufigkeit und Feuchteverlauf in Venedig, Tage mit anhaltendem Nebel im Dezember in Pavia und Häufigkeitsverteilung auf einem Meridionalschnitt untersucht.Die Nebelverhältnisseim Jahr zeigt eine Karte dermittleren Jahressumme der Nebeltage. Die Poebene weist eine mittlere Jahressumme von 30–40 Tagen auf. Das absolute Maximum mit 86 Tagen liegt bei Bologna, es ist zu einem Teil durch Stau bedingt. Diemittlere Anzahl der Nebeltage beträgtim Jahr in Venedig 57 und in Rom nur 19.Abschließend wird noch die Nebelhäufigkeit mit der vorherrschenden Wetterlage in Zusammenhang gebracht. Es ergibt sich, daß unbedingt die Windverhältnisse bei der Erklärung von Nebelhäufigkeiten herangezogen werden müssen. In Venedig geben die fast das ganze Jahr wehenden feuchten Seewinde Anlaß zu Mischungsnebel. Im Winter befinden sich die Apenninen oft im Wolkenstau, daher tritt dort eine relativ hohe Zahl von Nebeltagen auf. Genua und der Raum an der Riviera haben öfters im Winter und Frühjahr schlechte Sichten, die durch dieV _b-Tätigkeit bedingt sind. In Rom und Ancona tritt die Nebelhäufigkeit wegen oft ablandiger Winde stark zurück.

Summary A comparison of the diurnal range of fog and visibility conditions at Milano and Roma, the station near the coast, showed that at Roma good seeing occurs much more often than at Milano, the inland station, whilst conditions are vice versa in case of low visual range and fog at every daytime. The monthly variation of fog frequency was mapped out for the northern and central part of Italy. Centres of fog frequency are prevalent in winter, the most outstandig of which is to be found near Bologna with 15 days with fog in December. Summer shows some very unimportant and single centres with up to 2 days with fog only. Further tests were made on the frequency and variation of humidity at Venezia in their monthly course as well as on days with continuous fog in December at Pavia and on the distribution of frequency along one meridional section.The annual conditions of fog are pointed out in a map of the annual average sum of days with fog. The plain of the Po shows an average sum of 30–40 days p.a. The absolute maximum of 86 days, caused partly by cloud barrage, is situated near Bologna. The average number of days with fog per year amounts to 57 at Venezia and 19 at Roma.Finally the frequency of fog was studied in connection with the prevailing weather conditions. It has been found, that at any rate wind distribution has to be considered for the explanation of fog frequencies. At Venezia moist seawinds, blowing nearly throughout the year, account for the occurence of mixing fog. In winter the Apennins often are causing cloud barrage which explains the relatively high number of days with fog in that region. In winter or spring Genova and the area of the Riviera often have low visual range which is bound up withV _b-activity. At Roma and Ancona the frequency of fog is low because the local winds often blow from land to sea.

Riassunto Si esamina dapprima l'andamento giornaliero della nebbia e della visibilità in alcune località dell'Italia settentrionale e centrale. Risulta fra l'altro che le condizioni migliori della visibilità presentano la massima frequenza lungo le coste del Lazio, mentre esse si verificano con frequenza minima nella pianura padana, attorno a Milano. Circa la distribuzione mensile, rappresentata graficamente, risalta il numero di 15 giorni di nebbia che si ha in media a Bologna nel mese di Dicembre. Vengono anche indagati i rapporti fra la frequenza mensile della nebbia e l'umidità dell'aria a Venezia ed a Pavia.Le condizioni annuali sono quindi esaminate con una cartina delle medie del totale annuo dei giorni di nebbia. La pianura padana accusa un totale medio di 30–40 giorni. Il massimo assoluto si ha a Bologna con 86 giorni, da ascriversi all'azione di sbarramento degli Appennini. Il numero medio annuo dei giorni di nebbia a Venezia è di 57, si riduce per Roma a soli 19.Infine, vengono discussi i rapporti esistenti fra la frequenza della nebbia e le situazioni meteorologiche dominanti, dal che risulta la notevole importanza che rivestono i venti. Così a Venezia i venti umidi che soffiano in gran parte dell'anno dal mare verso terra dànno origine a nebbia di mescolamento. La nebbia sugli Appennini o presso questi è determinata dal loro effetto di sbarramento. Nella Riviera Ligure le condizioni di scarsa visibilità sono spesso legate a situazioni baricheV _b. A Roma e sulle coste dell'Adriatico (Ancona) la nebbia è assai scarsa perchè i venti soffiano prevalentemente da terra verso il mare.

Compositional gradients surrounding spherulites in obsidian and their relationship to spherulite growth and lava cooling     

James E. Gardner  Kenneth S. Befus  James Watkins  Marc Hesse  Nathan Miller 《Bulletin of Volcanology》2012,74(8):1865-1879

Spherical masses of crystal fibers (spherulites) crystalize from rhyolitic melt/glass mainly in response to significant undercooling while lava cools. Spherulite growth should induce compositional gradients in the surrounding glass from expulsion of incompatible constituents and diffusion of those constituents away from the spherulite. Finite-difference numerical modeling of one-dimensional diffusion, in which diffusivities are allowed to vary with temperature, is used to investigate how compositional gradients reflect spherulite growth and lava cooling. Overall, three forms of gradients are identified. Elements that diffuse quickly are expelled from the spherulite but then migrate away too quickly to become enriched at the boundary of the spherulite. Elements that diffuse slowly are trapped within the growing spherulite. Between those endmembers are elements that are not trapped, yet diffuse slow enough that they become enriched at the contact. Their slow diffusion away then elevates their concentrations in the surrounding glass. How enriched those elements are at the spherulite-matrix interface and how far their enrichments extend outwards into the glass reflect how spherulites grow and thermal conditions during growth. Concentrations of H₂O, Rb, F, Li, Cl, Na, K, Sr, Cs, Ba, and Be were measured in and around spherulites in obsidian from a 4.7?±?1?km³ rhyolite lava dome erupted from Tequila volcano, Mexico. Measurable concentration gradients are found for H₂O, Rb, and F. Attributes of those gradients and the behaviors of the other elements are in accord with their experimentally constrained diffusivities. Spherulites appear to have grown following radial, rather than volumetric, growth. The observed gradients (and lack of others) are more consistent with growth mainly below the glass transition, which would necessitate the dome cooling at ca. 10^?5 to 10^?7?°C?s^?1. Such slow cooling is consistent with the relatively large volume of the dome.  相似文献

Sphalerite oxidation pathways detected by oxygen and sulfur isotope studies     

Claudia Heidel  Marion Tichomirowa  Cornelia Breitkopf 《Applied Geochemistry》2011,26(12):2247-2259

Sphalerite oxidation is a common process under acid-mine drainage (AMD) conditions and results in the release of , Zn and potentially toxic trace metals, which can pollute rivers and oceans. However, there are only a few studies on the mechanisms of aerobic sphalerite oxidation. Oxygen and S isotope investigations of the produced may contribute to the understanding of sphalerite oxidation mechanisms so helping to interpret field data from AMD sites. Therefore, batch oxidation experiments with an Fe-rich sphalerite were performed under aerobic abiotic conditions at different initial pH values (2 and 6) for different lengths of time (2–100 days). The O and S isotope composition of the produced indicated changing oxidation pathways during the experiments. During the first 20 days of the experiments at both initial pH values, molecular O₂ was the exclusive O source of . Furthermore, the lack of S isotope enrichment processes between and sphalerite indicated that O₂ was the electron acceptor from sphalerite S. As the oxidation proceeded, a sufficient amount of released Fe(II) was oxidized to Fe(III) by O₂. Therefore, electrons could be transferred from sphalerite S sites to adsorbed hydrous Fe(III) and O from the hydration sphere of Fe was incorporated into the produced as indicated by decreasing δ¹⁸O_SO4 values which became more similar to the δ¹⁸O_H2O values. The enrichment of ³²S in relative to the sphalerite may also result from sphalerite oxidation by Fe(III).The incorporation of O₂ into during the oxidation of sphalerite was associated with an O isotope enrichment factor ε_SO4–O2 of ca. −22‰. The O isotope enrichment factor ε_SO4–H2O was determined to be ?4.1‰. A comparison with O and S studies of other sulfides suggests that there is no general oxidation mechanism for acid-soluble sulfides.  相似文献
