DasT-P-Feld der Diagenese und niedrigtemperierten Metamorphose aufgrund von Mineralreaktionen     

Prof. Dr. Helmut G. F. Winkler 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1964,10(1):70-93

It is attempted to determineT, P values for the lowgrade metamorphic facies. From geologic-petrographic observations and from experiments mineralreactions are outlined which characterize the zeolitic-, the glaucophane- and the greenschistfacies, respectively. Only such reactions are considered which are univariant if P_f=P_s; thus aP-T grid can be arrived at. Experimental data on the equilibria of the relevant reactions is taken from the literature and from own experiments. Experimental results are always checked against known field-observations. Contrary to current opinium, we arrive at rather higher temperatures for the beginning of the lowgrade metamorphic facies: Diagenesis. From sedimentation up to slightly below 300° C. Zeolitic facies. From slightly below 300° C up to about 400° C. Greenschistfacies. From about 400° C up to about 550° C. Glaucophaneschistfacies. Under pressures of at least 6–7 kb this facies begins somewhat above 300° C, probably at about 330° C, grading into high-pressure greenschistfacies.  相似文献   

Simulated Climate Change Effects on Year-Round Water Temperatures in Temperate Zone Lakes     

H. G. Stefan  X. Fang  M. Hondzo 《Climatic change》1998,40(3-4):547-576

A deterministic, one-dimensional model is presented to simulate daily water temperature profiles and associated ice and snow covers for dimictic and polymictic lakes of the temperate zone. The lake parameters required as model input are surface area (A_s), maximum depth (H_MAX), and Secchi depth (z_s), the latter, used as a measure of light attenuation and trophic state. The model is driven by daily weather data and operates year-round over multiple years. The model has been tested with extensive data (over 5,000 temperature points). Standard error between simulated and measured water temperatures is 1.4°C in the open water season and 0.5°C in the ice cover season. The model is applied to simulate the sensitivity of Minnesota lake water temperature characteristics to climate change. The projected climate changes due to a doubling of atmospheric CO₂ are obtained from the output of the Canadian Climate Center General Circulation Model (CCC GCM) and the Goddard Institute of Space Studies General Circulation Model (GISS GCM). Simulated lake temperature characteristics have been plotted in a coordinate system with a lake geometry ratio (A _s ^0.25 /H_MAX) on one axis and Secchi depth on the other. The lake geometry ratio expresses a lake's susceptibility to stratification. By interpolation, the sensitivity of lake temperature characteristics to changes of water depth and Secchi depth under the projected climate scenarios can therefore be obtained. Selected lake temperature characteristics simulated with past climate conditions (1961–1979) and with a projected 2 × CO₂ climate scenario as input are presented herein in graphical form. The simulation results show that under the 2 × CO₂ climate scenario ice formation is delayed and ice cover period is shortened. These changes cause water temperature modifications throughout the year.  相似文献   

Post-breakup basaltic magmatism along the East Greenland Tertiary rifted margin     

Stefan Bernstein  Peter B Kelemen  Christian Tegner  Mark D Kurz  Jurek Blusztajn  C.Kent Brooks 《Earth and Planetary Science Letters》1998,160(3-4):845-862

Mafic and ultramafic intrusions in East Greenland adjacent to the offshore Greenland–Iceland ridge were emplaced 5–9 My after continental breakup at 55 Ma [1]. Rare earth element (REE) concentrations determined by secondary ion mass spectrometry are reported for cumulus clinopyroxene from these intrusions, and the data are used to estimate REE abundance in equilibrium melts using available partitioning data. Estimated equilibrium melts from intrusions have strongly fractionated REE patterns with Nd/Dy(N) in the range 2 to 5.6 and Yb/Dy(N) 0.55 to 0.92, similar to values for coeval basalts. These melts have markedly higher Nd/Dy(N) than earlier breakup related flood basalts. The moderately low Yb/Dy(N) for the post-breakup volcanism is indicative of residual garnet in the source, while their high Nd/Dy(N) ratios can best be explained by aggregating low degree melts from a light-REE-enriched garnet- and spinel-bearing mantle source. We also report He, Sr, and Nd isotopic data for the intrusions. The highest ³He/⁴He ratios (>10 R/R_a) are found in the samples whose REE data reflect the largest proportion of melts from a garnet-bearing source, and having Sr and Nd isotopic compositions identical with the radiogenic Sr and unradiogenic Nd isotope end of the Iceland compositional field. There is no indication of a MORB-type mantle in the source of the intrusions. We postulate that post-breakup volcanism along the East Greenland coastline reflects the increasing proximity of the mantle plume to the East Greenland continental margin. The low degree of melting at high mean pressure inferred for the parental melts for the intrusions may reflect re-thickening of the lithosphere, which in turn was caused by the vigorous volcanism during breakup, with accompanying depletion of upper mantle and underplating of the crust at the continental margin.  相似文献   

Ramifications of high in-situ temperatures for laboratory testing and inferred stress states of unlithified sediments – A case study from the Nankai margin     

Andre Hüpers  Stefan KreiterAchim J. Kopf 《Marine and Petroleum Geology》2010

The recovery of drill cores involves changes in pressure and temperature conditions, which inevitably alter the mechanical properties of unlithified sediments. While expansion from unloading after core recovery is well studied, the effects from cooling on standard geotechnical tests are commonly neglected. Along the central portion of the Nankai margin sediments were recovered from high in-situ temperatures of up to 110 °C during IODP Leg 190. So far, the interpretation of the consolidation state of the Lower Shikoku Basin facies (LSB) entering the accretionary Nankai margin is ambiguous. Results from laboratory consolidation tests at room temperature show high pre-consolidation stresses. These were interpreted as hardening caused by cementation, while the field-based porosity vs. depth trend points towards normal consolidation. As an explanation for this discrepancy, the change of the mechanical properties by cooling from in-situ to laboratory conditions is proposed. In this paper, the results of a thermo-mechanical model are compared to published field data. This comparison suggests that the observed hardening is at least partially an artefact from cooling during core recovery, and that the strata may be considered normally consolidated to slightly overconsolidated. The latter can be explained by minor cementation or the influence of secondary consolidation. The results suggest that cooling from high in-situ temperatures may be important for the interpretation of the consolidation state of other sedimentary successions elsewhere.  相似文献
