A second occurrence of non-metamict davidite     

L. Van Wambeke 《Mineralium Deposita》1968,3(2):178-181

A second occurrence of non-metamict davidite has been found in the Kirumba syenitic massif, Kivu, Rep. of Congo (Kinshasa). Its properties are described. Its geochemical data support the hypothesis of a genetic relationship between the Kirumba massif and the alkaline complex with carbonatites of Lueshe.

A numerical diffusion model for continuous releases     

C. J. P. Van Buijtenen  J. Holland  D. Van Leeuwen 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》1973,5(3):275-283

The purpose of this study was to develop a diffusion model for a continuous point source which takes into account the increase of wind speed with height, and to compare this model with short-range diffusion experiments. The main problem was to find a good expression for the vertical diffusion coefficient. It turned out that good agreement between theory and experiment could only be obtained by introducing a settling speed W for the tracer combined with a conventional expression for the vertical diffusion (K(Z) = K ₀Z^1−p). An empirical relation was found between K ₀ and τ _vU and between W and bar σ _vU².  相似文献   

Geodynamic models for the Alpine type of orogeny (Test-case II: the Alps in central Europe)     

R.W. Van Bemmelen 《Tectonophysics》1973,18(1-2)

Two modern geodynamic models on the Alps are tested: plate tectonics (mechanical effects of colliding lithospheric mega-units), and mantle diapirism (mechanical and geochemical effects of ultra-lowvelocity bodies, rising from the low-velocity layer or asthenosphere). Verification occurs by means of comparing the expectations of these models (their ‘prognoses’) with the great wealth of available ‘diagnostic’ facts on the geology and geophysics of the Alps. It appears that the picture of the Alpine structural evolution, drafted by plate tectonics, is inadequate to describe the observed reality, whereas the idea of mantle diapirism, combined with crustal corrosion (geochemical oceanization) and gravity tectonics, provides a functionally correct model, that logically and coherently explains the entire Alpine cycle of orogeny.In the concluding remarks comparisons are made with the formation of island arcs in the western Pacific, the origin of the basin-and-range topography and volcanicity along the eastern margin of the Pacific, as well as the Sunda arc of Indonesia.  相似文献   

Results of deep seismic soundings along international profile VII in Czechoslovakia and poland     

Břetislav Beránek  Milica Mayerová  Milada Zounková  Alexander Guterch  Rufin Materzok  Jan Pajchel  Reviewer J. Vaněk 《Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica》1973,17(3):205-217

Summary The paper deals with the results of DSS measurements along international profile VII, carried out by Czechoslovak and Polish geophysicists in 1970 – 71. The profile situation is shown in Fig. 1. By 1971 part of the profile in the region of the Bohemian Massif between points 1 and 3 and in Poland between points 5 and 7 had been surveyed (Fig. 2). The seismograms were used to construct the travel-time curves of the fundamental types of waves P^K, P^M, P_n (Fig. 4). The mean velocities were computed from the travel-time curves of the reflected waves (P^M and P^K) and the refracted waves (P_g). Isolines of the mean velocities could be constructed for the region of the Bohemian Massif (Fig. 6). The velocity data found were used for the depth interpretation of the travel-time curves of the principal types of waves and to construct a seismic section (Fig. 8). In the region of the Pre-Sudeten block the thickness of the crust was found to be 34–37 km, and in the Sudeten it increased to 40 km. Towards the south the thickness of the crust gradually reduces to 30 km in the system of the Luice faults. In the Bohemian Cretaceous the thickness of the crust is about 30 km. Further to the south, in the region of the Moldanubicum, the thickness of the Earth's crust increases rapidly, and at the southern border of the Central Bohemian pluton it reaches values of about 42 km.  相似文献   

Carbon monoxide on the primitive earth     

James E. Van Trump  Stanley L. Miller 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1973,20(1):145-150

The reaction of CO + OH^? in aqueous solution to give formate was studied as a carbon monoxide sink on the primitive earth and in the present ocean. The reaction is first order in OH^? and first order in the molar CO concentration. The second order rate constant is given by log k(M^?1hr^?1) = 15.83?4886/T between 25°C and 60°C. Using the solubility of CO in sea water, and assuming a pH of 8 for a primitive ocean of the present size, the halflife of CO in the atmosphere is calculated to be 12 × 10⁶ yr at 0°C and 5.5 × 10⁴ yr at 25°C.Three other CO sinks would have been important in the primitive atmosphere: CO + H₂ → H₂CO driven by various energy sources, CO + OH → CO₂ + H, and the Fischer-Tropsch reaction of CO + H₂ → hydrocarbons, etc. It is concluded that the lifetime of a CO atmosphere would have been very short on the geological time scale although the relative importance of these four CO sinks is difficult to estimate.The CO + OH^? reaction to give formate is a very minor CO sink on the earth at the present time.  相似文献

La forme rotationnelle des équations de la dynamique atmosphérique et les invariants du mouvement de l'air     

J. Van Mieghem 《Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics》1954,7(1):16-28

Résumé Après avoir rappelé quelques notions de calcul tensoriel et les équations de la dynamique atmosphérique en coordonnées généralisées, l'auteur établit l'équation fondamentale de la rotationnelle absolue de l'air. Diverses formes de cette équation sont mentionnées. La première de ces formes est celle d'un bilan qui permet de définir le transport et le taux de production de la rotationnelle absolue de l'air. De la forme particulière de ce transport, il résulte que ce bilan se réduit à un bilan dans un espace à deux dimensions. Deux exemples illustrent les formules générales, le premier, en coordonnées sphériques (, ,r), le second, en coordonnées (, , ) où est un scalaire quelconque (pression atmosphérique, température potentielle, ...). Une autre forme de l'équation fondamentale est celle qui donne le taux d'accroissement individuel d'une composante de la rotationnelle absolue. Cette forme conduit à l'équation d'Ertel. En terminant, l'auteur généralise l'invariant d'Ertel-Rossby.

Summary Having recalled some results of the tensor analysis and the equations of atmospheric motion in general coordinates, the writer establishes the fundamental equation of the absolute vorticity. Different forms of this equation are mentioned. One of these is the equation of balance from which it is possible to deduce the definition of transport and production of vorticity. It is shown that the equation of balance of the absolute vorticity may be reduced to an equation of balance in two-dimensional space. Two examples illustrate the general equations and formulas: the first example, in spherical coordinates (, ,r), the second one in the coordinates (, , ) where is an arbitrary single-valued scalar quantity (pressure, potentiel temperature, ...). Another form of the absolute vorticity equation expresses the individual change of an arbitrary component of the absolute vorticity. This form leads toErtel's equation. Finally, the writer generalizes theErtel-Rossby invariant.

Zusammenfassung Nach einer Rekapitulation einiger Resultate der Tensorrechnung und der atmosphärischen Bewegungsgleichungen in generalisierten Koordinaten wird die absolute Wirbelgleichung aufgestellt und es werden verschiedene Formen dieser Gleichung erwähnt. Eine derselben ist die Bilanzformel, aus der die Definition des Wirbeltransports und der Anteil der Wirbelbildung abgeleitet werden können. Es wird gezeigt, daß die Bilanzgleichung des absoluten Wirbels auf eine Bilanzgleichung im zweidimensionalen Raum reduziert werden kann. Die allgemeinen Formeln werden durch zwei Beispiele erläutert: das erste in Kugelkoordinaten (, ,r), das zweite in den Koordinaten (, , ), wo eine beliebige skalare Größe (luftdruck, potentielle Temperatur usw.) darstellt. Eine andere Form der absoluten Wirbelgleichung gibt die individuelle Zunahme einer beliebigen Komponente der absoluten Wirbelstärke wieder; diese Form führt zurErtelschen Gleichung. Zum Schlusse wird dieErtel-Rossbysche Invariante verallgemeinert.

Approaches to analyse and model changes in impacts: reply to discussions of “How to improve attribution of changes in drought and flood impacts”*     

Heidi Kreibich  Veit Blauhut  Jeroen C. J. H. Aerts  Laurens M. Bouwer  Henny A. J. Van Lanen  Alfonso Mejia 《水文科学杂志》2020,65(3):491-494

ABSTRACT

We thank the authors, Brunella Bonaccorso and Karsten Arnbjerg-Nielsen for their constructive contributions to the discussion about the attribution of changes in drought and flood impacts. We appreciate that they support our opinion, but in particular their additional new ideas on how to better understand changes in impacts. It is great that they challenge us to think a step further on how to foster the collection of long time series of data and how to use these to model and project changes. Here, we elaborate on the possibility to collect time series of data on hazard, exposure, vulnerability and impacts and how these could be used to improve e.g. socio-hydrological models for the development of future risk scenarios.  相似文献   

Palaeomagnetism of the Ordovician dolerites of the Crozon Peninsula (France)     

H. Perroud  N. Bonhommet  R. Van der  Voo 《Geophysical Journal International》1983,72(2):307-319

Summary. In order to obtain a Lower Palaeozoic pole for the Armorican Massif and to test the origin of the Ibero-Armorican arc, the Ordovician dolerites of the Crozon peninsula have been palaeomagnetically studied. The samples show a multicomponent magnetization which has been revealed by AF and thermal demagnetization and thoroughly investigated with rock magnetic experiments, polished section examinations and K/Ar dating. Four groups of directions have been recognized, often superimposed on each other in an individual sample. One component (D) has always the lowest blocking temperatures and coercivities and is considered to be of viscous origin, acquired recently in situ or in the laboratory during storage. Two components (A and B) are interpreted to be of secondary origin and to correspond to the observed K/Ar age distribution between 300 and 190 Myr. These ages represent the time interval between two regional thermo-tectonic events, associated with the Hercynian orogeny and the intrusion of dykes related to the early opening of the Central Atlantic Ocean and the Bay of Biscay. A fourth component (C) could be of Ordovician or younger Palaeozoic age; it is not clear whether the age of the magnetization is pre- or post-folding, but a pre-folding age would yield a direction of magnetization similar to Ordovician results from the Iberian peninsula. The latter interpretation suggests a fairly high palaeolatitude, which is in agreement with a glacio-marine postulated for sediments overlying the dolerite sills.  相似文献
