Terremoti dell'Appennino Vogherese-Tortonese e la geologia della regione     

Prof. Dott. Alfredo Boni 《Pure and Applied Geophysics》1947,10(1-2):114-143

Riassunto L'A. studia macro- e microsismicamente i terremoti del 14 giugno, 29 giugno e 15 dicembre 1945, determinandone la posizione delf'epicentio, che pei i primi due viene a cadere nell'Appennino Vogherese fra la Val Staffora e la Val di Nizza, per il terzo invece a N della congiungente Tortona-Alessandria. La profondita ipocentrale del terremoto del 29 giugno 1945 oscilla fra un valore minimo di 9 Km ottenuto macrosismicamente ed un valore massimo, ricavato per via microsismica, di 25 km; quello del 15 dicembre 1945 ha una profondità, microsismicamente calcolata sui 25 km; per quello del 14 giugno 1945 i risultati sono molto incerti. La scossa all'epicentro ha sempre nei tre sismi il carattere di sprofondamento.Posta a confronto colla struttura geologica della regione tale attività sismica non sembra derivare da un determinato elemento strutturale rilevabile; essa è probabilmente dovuta a sprofondamenti avvenuti a media profondità e presenta un'intensificazione in corrispondenza a direttrici tettoniche trasversali al locale andamento del corrugamento. I danni maggiori poi si possono mettere in stretto rapporto colla presenza di esigue formazioni alluvionali sciolte su roccia in posto.

Summary The author studies macro-microseismically the earthquakes which we have ascertained on the 14^th of June, the 29^th of June and the 15^th of December in the year 1945, giving us the position of the epicentrum, which in the first two falls in Vogherese Appennino between Staffora and Nizza valleys, for the third instead north of Tortona-Alessandria connecting. The ipocentrum depth of the earthquake on the 29^th of June goes from a lowest value of 9 km had macro-seismically to a maximum value had micro-seismically of about 25 km. The 15^th of December one has a depth microseismically computed about 25 km, for the other on the 14^th of June the outcomes are very dubious.The skate at the ipocentrum has in all these three seisms the sinking type.Having made a comparison with the geological structure of the country such a seismical activity does not seem to come from a determinate structural relieving element; it is of course owed sinkings that we had in a middle depth and has an intensity which are in conformity with transversal tectonical directresses. The biggest damages can be put in strait relation with the presence of very little alluvial formations.

The optical warp of NGC 5907     

E. Florido  E. Battaner  A. Gros  M. Prieto  E. Mediavilla 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1992,190(2):293-301

A study was made of the optical warps of NGC 5907, by means of CCD photometry, for theU andI filters, as well as for a narrow band filter centred at H. Our observations were extended out to about 380 arc sec in the NW side and out to about 348 arc sec in the SE side. The Hi warps begin at these galactocentric radii, so that the optical ones are not clearly distinguished. TheU warp is larger than theI one in the NW, but this difference is not appreciated in the SE. The disk shows slight corrugations.  相似文献   

Detection of Miocene saucer‐shaped sills (offshore Senegal) via integrated interpretation of seismic,magnetic and gravity data     

Sergio Rocchi  Alfredo Mazzotti  Michele Marroni  Luca Pandolfi  Paolo Costantini  Bertozzi Giuseppe  Davide di Biase  Francesco Federici  Papa Goumbo L 《地学学报》2007,19(4):232-239

The Atlantic margin offshore Senegal has been explored by seismic reflection and GRAV‐MAG surveys. High‐amplitude, laterally transgressive seismic reflectors are found to coincide with gravimetric and magnetic highs. Once seismic data are integrated with potential fields modelling, these reflectors can be safely interpreted as saucer‐shaped igneous sills, up to some hundreds of metres thick, some km wide. The occurrence of hydrothermal vent complexes and forced folds in the stratigraphic sequence above the sills constrain the intrusion age to the Miocene. Field observations and in‐situ magnetic susceptibility measurements of Oligocene–Miocene and Quaternary igneous rocks emplaced in coastal Senegal support this interpretation.  相似文献   

Orbital parameters of the microquasar LS I +61 303     

J. Casares  I. Ribas  J. M. Paredes  J. Martí  C. Allende Prieto 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2005,360(3):1105-1109

New optical spectroscopy of the high-mass X-ray binary microquasar LS I +61 303 is presented. Eccentric orbital fits to our radial velocity measurements yield updated orbital parameters in good agreement with previous work. Our orbital solution indicates that the periastron passage occurs at radio phase 0.23 and the X-ray/radio outbursts are triggered 2.5–4 d after the compact star passage. The spectrum of the optical star is consistent with a B0 V spectral type and contributes ∼65 per cent of the total light, the remainder being the result of emission by a circumstellar disc. We also measure the projected rotational velocity to be   v sin  i ≃ 113 km s⁻¹  .  相似文献   

New faint optical spectrophotometric standards: hot white dwarfs from the Sloan Digital Sky Survey     

Carlos Allende Prieto  Ivan Hubeny  J. Allyn Smith 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2009,396(2):759-771

The spectral energy distributions for pure-hydrogen (DA) hot white dwarfs can be accurately predicted by model atmospheres. This makes it possible to define spectrophotometric calibrators by scaling the theoretical spectral shapes with broad-band photometric observations – a strategy successfully exploited for the spectrographs onboard the Hubble Space Telescope ( HST ) using three primary DA standards. Absolute fluxes for non-DA secondary standards, introduced to increase the density of calibrators in the sky, need to be referred to the primary standards, but a far better solution would be to employ a network of DA stars scattered throughout the sky. We search for blue objects in the sixth data release of the Sloan Digital Sky Survey (SDSS) and fit DA model fluxes to identify suitable candidates. Reddening needs to be considered in the analysis of many of these stars. We propose a list of nine pure-hydrogen white dwarfs with absolute fluxes with estimated uncertainties below 3 per cent, including four objects with estimated errors <2 per cent, as candidates for spectrophotometric standards in the range  14 < g < 18  , and provide model-based fluxes scaled to match the SDSS broad-band fluxes for each. We apply the same method to the three HST DA standards, linking the zero point of their absolute fluxes to ugr magnitudes transformed from photometry obtained with the US Naval Observatory 1-m telescope. For these stars, we estimate uncertainties of <1 per cent in the optical, finding good consistency with the fluxes adopted for HST calibration.  相似文献   

Comparing mixing-length models of the diabatic wind profile over homogeneous terrain   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Alfredo Peña  Sven-Erik Gryning  Charlotte Bay Hasager 《Theoretical and Applied Climatology》2010,100(3-4):325-335

Models of the diabatic wind profile over homogeneous terrain for the entire atmospheric boundary layer are developed using mixing-length theory and are compared to wind speed observations up to 300 m at the National Test Station for Wind Turbines at Høvsøre, Denmark. The measurements are performed within a wide range of atmospheric stability conditions, which allows a comparison of the models with the average wind profile computed in seven stability classes, showing a better agreement than compared to the traditional surface-layer wind profile. The wind profile is measured by combining cup anemometer and lidar observations, showing good agreement at the overlapping heights. The height of the boundary layer, a parameter required for the wind profile models, is estimated under neutral and stable conditions using surface-layer turbulence measurements, and under unstable conditions based on the aerosol backscatter profile from ceilometer observations.  相似文献   

Zur Stratigraphie des Altpaläozoikums in Argentinien     

Prof. Dr. Alfredo J. Cuerda 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1974,63(3):1261-1277

At the beginning of the Paleozoic era three geotectonic units were already constitued in the argentine territory: 1. central cratonic region; 2. ortogeosynclinal belt in the West, and 3. intracratonic region in the East. On the basis of the morphostructural units that emerge out of the development of the geotectonic pattern, the regional distribution and stratigraphy of the Lower Paleozoic rocks are described (Cambrian to Silurian). In the Northern Argentina (Subandine ranges, Eastern Cordillera and Puna) the stratigraphical sequence is complete with a thickness of 9.100 meters. In the Transpampean Ranges only the Ordovician (Tremadoc-Llanvirn) is represented with a minimum thickness of 3.850 meters. In the Precordillera of Western Argentina the sequence is complete with a minimum thickness of 6.000 meters, the Ordovician being the most developed. In the San Rafael ranges (Mendoza), the Northern and Southern ranges of the Buenos Aires province, the Northpatagonian nesocraton and the Chaco-Parana basin, the succession is incomplete or little known. In each case the recognized lithological units are described and their respective stratigraphical relations are indicated.  相似文献   

Geological and morphological study of the Jiufengershan landslide triggered by the Chi-Chi Taiwan earthquake   总被引：2，自引：4，他引：2

The Jiufengershan rock and soil avalanche is one of the largest landslides triggered by the Chi-Chi earthquake Taiwan 1999. The landslide destabilized the western limb of the Taanshan syncline along a weak stratigraphic layer. It involved a flatiron remnant, which was almost entirely mobilized during the earthquake. The avalanche was slowed down by NS trending ridges located downstream along the Jiutsaihu creek. The landslide affected a 60 m thick and 1.5 km long sedimentary pile composed of shales and sandstones, which dip 22°SE toward a transverse valley. The triggering mechanism and the sliding process were analyzed by means of geological and morphological data from aerial photographs and observed in the field. A high-resolution airborne Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) image taken 2.5 years after the landslide allows the identification of morphological structures along the sliding surface and the landslide accumulation. The sliding surface shows several deformation structures such as fault scarps and folds. These structures are interpreted in terms of basal shear stresses created during the avalanche. Three major joint sets were identified at the sliding surface. The isopach map of the landslide was calculated from the comparison between elevation models before and after the earthquake. The coseismic volume of mobilized material and landslide deposit data are 42 × 10⁶ m³ and 50 × 10⁶ m³, respectively. The geometry of the landslide accumulation in the field has an irregular star shape. The morphology of the deposit area shows a sequence of smooth reliefs and depressions that contrast with the neighboring ridges.  相似文献   

Characterisation of dispersed organic matter from lower Palaeozoic metasedimentary rocks by organic petrography, X-ray diffraction and micro-Raman spectroscopy analyses     

Alexandra Guedes  Fernando Noronha  A. Carmelo Prieto 《International Journal of Coal Geology》2005,62(4):291

Dispersed organic matter (DOM) concentrates of C-rich rocks from areas with different metamorphic characteristics were studied by organic petrography, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and micro-Raman spectroscopy analysis. The concentrates contain several types of DOM with different morphologies, reflectance, X-ray diffraction and micro-Raman characteristics.Four different morphological types were identified in the two studied areas. The different types have different distributions and their reflectance is quite variable in the four types, with a dominance of the highest reflectance values in the DOM from the area with the highest metamorphic grade.XRD analyses of samples from the areas reveal the presence of fine graphite together with non-graphitised carbons.The Raman spectral profiles show the usual bands G (1582 cm⁻¹) and D1 (1350 cm⁻¹), on the first-order Raman spectrum, and S1 (2700 cm⁻¹) on the second-order spectrum. Additional weaker bands, D2 (1620 cm⁻¹), and more rarely D3 (1500 cm⁻¹) and S2 (2900 cm⁻¹), are present. These are characteristic for disordered carbons in the different types of DOM and in both studied areas. However, the Raman parameters (D1/G intensity area ratio and the frequency and width of G band) indicate variable degrees of organisation in all DOM types.The existence of different types of DOM with different degrees of ordering in the same lithologies and metamorphic grade seems to be related to different organic precursors, as they are graphitised to different extents under the same metamorphic conditions. However, in the same lithologies and metamorphic grade, the existence of various stages of graphitisation within the same type of DOM can only be explained though the interaction of DOM with the metamorphic fluids present in the rocks. The ordering graphitisation process may be due to the existence of metamorphic fluid circulation events with a variety of compositions.  相似文献
