Along-arc lateral variation of Rb−Sr and K−Ar ages of Cretaceous granitic rocks in Southwest Japan     

Takashi Nakajima  Teruo Shirahase  Ken Shibata 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1990,104(4):381-389

Cretaceous granitic rocks were emplaced over a distance of 700 km along arc in Southwest Japan. Rb–Sr and K–Ar ages of a major group of these granitic rocks, with ilmenite series ore mineralogy, were examined. Rb–Sr whole rock ages of 92.8±4.0 Ma and Rb–Sr and K–Ar biotite ages of 80–88 Ma were obtained on one group of these granitic rocks from Kamo-Sera area of central Hiroshima Prefecture. The K–Ar ages of various minerals, combined with the Rb–Sr whole-rock age, give a smooth cooling curve, which suggests a 5 to 10 Ma time-lag between intrusion and cooling at 300° C for the Cretaceous granitic rocks. The Rb–Sr whole-rock and Rb–Sr/K–Ar biotite ages of these granitic rocks become younger eastward along the Southwest Japan arc, and the time-lag between the two systems remains constant at 5 to 10 Ma over the entire area. The along-arc age variation does not support the genetical relationship of the Cretaceous granitoids with steady-state subduction. The Cretaceous granitic province at the eastern margin of Eurasian continent was, at least partly, formed by an episodic event such as ridge subduction.  相似文献

Analysis and evaluation of the global aerosol optical properties simulated by an online aerosol-coupled non-hydrostatic icosahedral atmospheric model     

DAI Tie  SHI Guangyu  Teruyuki NAKAJIMA 《大气科学进展》2015,32(6):743-758

Aerosol optical properties are simulated using the Spectral Radiation Transport Model for Aerosol Species(SPRINTARS)coupled with the Non-hydrostatic ICosahedral Atmospheric Model(NICAM). The 3-year global mean all-sky aerosol optical thickness(AOT) at 550 nm, the ngstr m Exponent(AE) based on AOTs at 440 and 870 nm, and the single scattering albedo(SSA) at 550 nm are estimated at 0.123, 0.657 and 0.944, respectively. For each aerosol species, the mean AOT is within the range of the Aero Com models. Both the modeled all-sky and clear-sky results are compared with observations from the Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer(MODIS) and the Aerosol Robotic Network(AERONET). The simulated spatiotemporal distributions of all-sky AOTs can generally reproduce the MODIS retrievals, and the correlation and model skill can be slightly improved using the clear-sky results over most land regions. The differences between clear-sky and all-sky AOTs are larger over polluted regions. Compared with observations from AERONET, the modeled and observed all-sky AOTs and AEs are generally in reasonable agreement, whereas the SSA variation is not well captured. Although the spatiotemporal distributions of all-sky and clear-sky results are similar, the clear-sky results are generally better correlated with the observations. The clear-sky AOT and SSA are generally lower than the all-sky results, especially in those regions where the aerosol chemical composition is contributed to mostly by sulfate aerosol. The modeled clear-sky AE is larger than the all-sky AE over those regions dominated by hydrophilic aerosol, while the opposite is found over regions dominated by hydrophobic aerosol.  相似文献

Kurosegawa zone and its bearing on the development of the Japanese Islands     

Shigenori Maruyama  Shohei Banno  Tetsuo Matsuda  Takashi Nakajima 《Tectonophysics》1984,110(1-2)

The Kurosegawa zone in southwest Japan is a 600 km long serpentinite mélange in the Chichibu terrains. It runs generally E-W but is slightly oblique to the subparallel arrangement of the Ryoke, Sanbagawa and Chichibu belts of Southwest Japan. A variety of geological units occurs in the Kurosegawa zone:

1. (1) granodiorite, gneiss and amphibolite of ca. 400 Ma,

2. (2) Siluro-Devonian formations,

3. (3) Upper Carboniferous to Jurassic formations,

4. (4) Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous formations,

5. (5) serpentinite and

6. (6) low- to medium-grade metamorphic rocks of various baric types (ages, 220, 320, 360 and 420 Ma by K-Ar).

The most widespread is a high-pressure intermediate group of metamorphic rocks. Serpentinite is emplaced along the faults between and within the constituent units.Rocks of the Kurosegawa zone represent a mature orogenic belt along a continental margin or an island arc. Its original site as constrained by paleomagnetism was near the equatorial area. Here, 400 Ma old paired metamorphism and related magmatism took place. The island arc or microcontinent migrated northward to collide with the Eurasia plate during Late Jurassic, thus consuming the intervening ocean.  相似文献   

Phase relations of pumpellyite-actinolite facies metabasites in the Sanbagawa metamorphic belt in central Shikoku, Japan     

Takashi Nakajima 《Lithos》1982,15(4):267-280

Sanbagawa metabasites metamorphosed at conditions near the upper limit of the pumpellytic-actinolite facies were examined in terms of phase equilibria in the five component system Al₂O₃---Fe₂O₃---CaO---MgO---FeO. The Fe³⁺ content of epidote measured as X^Ep_Fe (=Fe/(Fe + Al) of epidote) in the assemblage epidote-chlorite-actinolite-pumpellyite decreases gradually towards the higher-grade, pumpellyite-free areas. The progressive change in X_Fe^Ep can be detected within one metabasite bed 200 meters thick near the upper limit of the pumpellyite-actinolite facies. The Mg---Fe²⁺ substitution, as expressed by variation of Fe/(Fe + Mg) in chlorite (0.40–0.55) has little effect on the Fe³⁺ + Al) ratios of epidote and pumpellyite in the above-mentioned assemblage. The lowet X_Fe^Ep in the pumpellite-bearing assemblage is 0.15 and hence the upper limit of the pumpellyite-actinolite facies is defined by the appearance of an epidote-chlorite-actinolite assemblage with X^Ep_Fc = C.15  相似文献   

Radio evidence for a delayed acceleration process in solar flares     

K. Kai  H. Nakajima  T. Kosugi  R. T. Stewart  G. J. Nelson  S. R. Kane 《Solar physics》1986,105(2):383-398

Evidence for a delayed acceleration process in solar flares is presented in the form of an analysis of simultaneous observations in microwaves, decimetre and metrewaves, and hard X-rays of six delayed gradual bursts which appear 0.5–1 hr after the strong main bursts have faded. The observed characteristics of the delayed bursts are: (a) similarity of flux time profiles at all the wavelengths, (b) low turn-over frequency (4 GHz) of the microwave spectrum, (c) moderately strong circular polarization (30–40%) and low altitude of the microwave source (which is displaced toward the disk centre by a projected distance of 10–20 from that of the preceding main burst), and (d) low spectral index of the energy spectrum of hard X-rays.From these observations it is suggested that (i) electrons are accelerated up to MeV even some tens of minutes after the impulsive phase acceleration has almost ceased, (ii) the delayed acceleration occurs in a large magnetic structure extending to a height of at least 2 × 10⁵ km, and (iii) the radio source has columnar structure with the microwave source predominantly near a leg or legs and the metrewave source near the top of the magnetic structure. The present observations of the delayed bursts do not seem to be consistent with the classical second-phase acceleration mechanism proposed in the past for normal hard X-ray gradual (extended) bursts.Minamimaki-mura, Minamisaku-gun, Nagano-ken 384-13, Japan.Greenbelt, MD 20771, U.S.A., NASA/NRC Research Associate, on leave from Tokyo Astronomical Observatory.P.O.

Influence of crystal shapes on radiative fluxes in visible wavelength: ice crystals randomly oriented in space     

P. Chervet  H. Isaka  T. Nakajima 《Annales Geophysicae》1996,14(8):837-844

Radiative properties of cirrus clouds are one of the major unsolved problems in climate studies and global radiation budget. These clouds are generally composed of various ice-crystal shapes, so we tried to evaluate effects of the ice-crystal shape on radiative fluxes. We calculated radiative fluxes of cirrus clouds with a constant geometrical depth, composed of ice crystals with different shapes (hexagonal columns, bullets, bullet-rosettes), sizes and various concentrations. We considered ice particles randomly oriented in space (3D case) and their scattering phase functions were calculated by a ray-tracing method. We calculated radiative fluxes for cirrus layers for different microphysical characteristics by using a discrete-ordinate radiative code. Results showed that the foremost effect of the ice-crystal shape on radiative properties of cirrus clouds was that on the optical thickness, while the variation of the scattering phase function with the ice shape remained less than 3% for our computations. The ice-water content may be a better choice to parameterize the optical properties of cirrus, but the shape effect must be included.  相似文献
