Spherical tensor approach to the solution of the mantle stress problem     

Ondřej Čadek  Reviewer M. Pick  Reviewer J. Šílený 《Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica》1989,33(2):177-197

Summary The technique of spherical tensors is applied to the problem of stress in the mantle. An efficient method for stress computation is developed for the Newtonian mantle with spherical boundaries assuming that the density and gravitational potential in the form of harmonic expansions are known. The ways of including more complicated rheological models as well as the non-spherical shape of boundaries are outlined.

Linear models in vertical ionosperic sounding     

Jaromír Bordovský  Jan Šomvarský 《Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica》1990,34(1):46-55

Summary The paper deals with selecting optimum models for computing the vertical distribution of the electron concentration of ionospheric plasma. It is demonstrated that, with a view to the proposed average criterion, a model can be found, which utilizes the information contained in observed values to a better advantage than previous models.  相似文献

Geochemical history of a Lower Miocene lake,the Cypris Formation,Sokolov Basin,Czech Republic     

Bohdan Kříbek  Ilja Knésl  Petr Rojík  Ivana Sýkorová  Karel Martínek 《Journal of Paleolimnology》2017,58(2):169-190

The intracontinental Lower Miocene Cypris paleo-lake originated during progressive subsidence in the Sokolov Basin, part of the Cenozoic Oh?e Rift, after the deposition of coal seams. The Cypris Fm. consists almost entirely of lacustrine clays with variable mineral composition and organic matter, where this succession is 70–120 m thick. The main objective of this study was to interpret the geochemical history of the Lower Miocene Cypris Fm. using high-resolution, down-core geochemical records and study of the organic matter. This work revealed that the lower part of the lacustrine sediment sequence was deposited in a freshwater lake, in an open hydrological system. An increase in the K/Zr and K/Ti ratios towards the upper part of the Cypris Fm. indicates a gradual increase in the pelitic fraction of the local sediments and/or a decline in input of volcanic material. Simultaneously, increasing Ca/K and Sr/K ratios indicate the precipitation of carbonates, predominantly dolomite and siderite. In the upper part of the Cypris Fm., there is a significant increase in Na/K, Na/Zr, and Na/Ti ratios, suggesting increasing salinity (alkalinity) of the paleoenvironment in a closed hydrological system. Reaction between the Na-rich water and clastic components of the sediment in an alkaline medium gave rise to the formation of zeolites, mixed-layer clay minerals and smectite. Abundant remains of aquatic organisms, especially algae, increased with greater salinity in the upper part of the Cypris Fm. This is reflected in the greater hydrogen index (HI_{Rock Eval}), and the growing proportion of liptinite group macerals of aquatic origin in the bulk organic matter. During the entire history of sedimentation in the Miocene lake, repetitive changes in the sediment geochemistry occurred at both micro- and macroscales, and fluctuations of K/Ti, K/Zr, and Sr/Ca ratios over meters to tens of meters are observed. These changes probably reflect either long-term climate fluctuations during the Lower Miocene or oscillations caused by changes in the rate of subsidence of the basin floor. Variations in the elemental composition of sediments can be used to correlate individual boreholes across the entire sedimentary basin.  相似文献

Hydrogeochemistry of a deep gas-storage cavern,Czech Republic     

Zdeněk Jezerský 《Hydrogeology Journal》2007,15(3):599-614

Groundwater was occasionally found during the construction of a deep gas-storage cavern at approximately 1 km below land surface near Pribram, Czech Republic. The individual groundwater seeps, with a discharge not exceeding 0.01 l/s and T?=?23°C, were usually a strongly alkali natural solution with maximum pH values of 9.9 and TDS concentrations from 0.2 to 0.86 g/l; Na⁺, \({\text{HCO}}^{ - }_{3}\), and Cl^? ions were the major dissolved chemical constituents. Two main groundwater quality groups were defined: Na–Cl and Na–HCO₃. Based on the stable isotope (¹⁸O/¹⁶O, D/H), tritium and radiocarbon analyses, some groundwater originated from rainwater infiltrating during the Upper Pleistocene Epoch. Strontium in the groundwater of the crystalline aquifer was isotopically homogenous and equilibrates with strontium in the granite and granodiorite of the gas-storage cavern. Based on the information, the deep groundwater seeps were associated with slow or ‘stagnant’ groundwater circulation, without direct relation to the recent groundwater of faster circulation near the surface, which is periodically recharged by precipitation. The results of the water-quality monitoring of the deep groundwater seeps have been used in estimating the insulating properties of the neighboring rocks near the gas-storage cavern. This information will be important in the safe operation of the gas-storage cavern.  相似文献   

Palaeo- and rock-magnetic investigations across Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary at St Bertrand’s Spring,Drôme,France: applications to magnetostratigraphy     

Tiiu Elbra  Petr Schnabl  Kristýna Čížková  Petr Pruner  Šimon Kdýr  Jacek Grabowski  Daniela Reháková  Andrea Svobodová  Camille Frau  William A.P. Wimbledon 《Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica》2018,62(2):323-338

Palaeo- and rock-magnetic investigations of the St Bertrand’s Spring (Le Ravin de Font de St Bertrand) locality in France were carried out in order to contribute to, and improve, the stratigraphy of the Jurassic-Cretaceous boundary interval. Magnetic susceptibility shows slightly diamagnetic behaviour in the lowermost part of the profile and an increase (paramagnetic) towards its middle and upper parts. Rock-magnetic measurements throughout the section show magnetite as the main magnetic fraction, together with traces of hematite. Additionally, thermal demagnetization indicates the presence of goethite. Our magnetostratigraphy indicates three normal/reversed polarity sequences; possibly encompassing the magnetozones M19r to the M17n. This suggests that the St Bertrand section straddles the Tithonian/Berriasian boundary and reaches the middle Berriasian sensu lato.  相似文献   

Detecting,sourcing, and age-dating dredged sediments on the open shelf,southern California,using dead mollusk shells     

Matthew T. Bizjack  Susan M. Kidwell  Ronald G. Velarde  Jill Leonard-Pingel  Adam Tomašových 《Marine pollution bulletin》2017,114(1):448-465

Molluscan shell debris is an under-exploited means of detecting, sourcing, and age-dating dredged sediments in open-shelf settings. Backscatter features on the Southern California shelf are suggestive of dredged sediment hauled from San Diego Bay but deposited significantly inshore of the EPA-designated ocean disposal site. We find that 36% of all identifiable bivalve shells > 2 mm (44% of shells > 4 mm) in sediment samples from this 'short dump' area are from species known to live exclusively in the Bay; such shells are absent at reference sites of comparable water depth, indicating that their presence in the short-dump area signals non-compliant disposal rather than natural offshore transport or sea level rise. These sediments lack the shells of species that invaded California bays in the 1970s, suggesting that disposal preceded federal regulations. This inexpensive, low-tech method, with its protocol for rejecting alternative hypotheses, will be easy to adapt in other settings.  相似文献   

Can suspended sediment concentrations be estimated from multispectral imagery using only image-derived information?     

M. Onderka  M. Rodný 《Journal of the Indian Society of Remote Sensing》2010,38(1):85-97

Sampling for suspended sediment concentrations (SSC) in inland waters is traditionally based on collecting samples at sparse locations and in limited intervals. A number of investigators explored the utility of earth-observing satellites and air-borne sensors for monitoring of SSC over vast areas. Two approaches are commonly deployed: (1) empirical relationships between a chosen remotely sensed quantity and the actual in-situ SSC; and (2) bio-optical models founded on radiative transfer modeling. Unfortunately, in-situ measurements are often unavailable for direct image calibration, and inherent optical properties of optically active constituents (specific scattering and absorption coefficients) are usually unknown. This paper examines the possibility to retrieve SSC from multispectral satellite imagery without any in-situ data, i.e. using only image-derived information. The fundamental principle of image selfcalibration relies on the fact that in the visual domain of wavelengths (∼400–700 nm) the at-sensor reflectance becomes “saturated“ at high SSC, whereas the near-infrared domain (∼700–900 nm) remains almost perfectly linearly related to sediment concentrations. The core idea of the self-calibrating procedure is rather simple and is based on fitting an exponential function between reflectance and SSC, with SSC replaced by a linear relationship between SSC and reflectance in the near-infrared domain. As a first approximation of the non-linearity between reflectance and SSC levels in the 400–700 nm range, we used the equation proposed by Schiebe et al. (1992), although other equations, especially those arising from optical theory could be used as well. The technique is illustrated on a moderately sediment-laden reservoir and two scenes acquired from Landsat ETM+. The standard error of the estimated SSC was below 15 mg/L (i.e. ∼25 % relative error for the observed range of SSC). Although the proposed algorithm does not yield better results than other models mentioned in the literature, the primary advantage of the outlined methodology is that no in-situ measurements (water sampling nor spectral profiling) are needed — i.e. only image-derived information is used.  相似文献   

Landslide-dammed lake sediment volume calculation using waterborne ERT and SONAR profiling     

Filip Hartvich  Petr Tábořík  Miroslav Šobr  Bohumír Janský  Zdeněk Kliment  Jakub Langhammer 《地球表面变化过程与地形》2020,45(14):3463-3474

Lake sediment volume calculation is a challenging task, namely in cases when detailed drilling is complicated, expensive, or impossible, information on the pre-sedimentation surface unavailable, and record of siltation rate non-existent or too short. This study shows how waterborne, non-invasive geophysical survey, such as electrical resistivity tomography (ERT) can be very effective in acquiring the missing data, namely when combined with sound navigation ranging (SONAR) water depth measurements and supported by information from auxiliary sources. However, ERT surveying in water environment requires specific approaches, as we illustrate on the case of the Mladotice lake study. The lake was created after a landslide in May 1872, and since its formation, the depth has gradually decreased due to sedimentation. We have reconstructed the original surface, calculated the sediment volume, and compiled information on sedimentation to estimate its remaining life span. To achieve this, we measured nine waterborne ERT profiles across the lake. To reach the necessary depth, all ERT profiles were extended on land and crossed the lake using custom-built flotation pads. ERT profiling was combined with SONAR depth measurements, historical bathymetric surveys, borehole core analysis, sediment flux measurements, volumetric calculations, and water conductivity probing. The study has achieved three main results. First, practical applicability and advantages of stationary waterborne ERT profiling in combination with bathymetric sounding were demonstrated. Second, the original lake volume and accumulated sediment was calculated. We estimate that the volume of lake sediment is 187 000 m³, two-thirds of the original lake volume (over 275 000 m³). Finally, based on three volumetric data sets from 1972, 2003, and 2017, and recent monitoring of the sediment inflow, we propose scenarios of lake filling and its future development. Most interestingly, the sedimentation rate has decreased significantly in the last 20 years, suggesting that the lake may survive much longer than hitherto expected. © 2020 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献
