Code of Practice For Ocean Mining: An International Effort to Develop a Code For Environmental Management of Marine Mining     

Anthony T. Jones  Charles L. Morgan 《Marine Georesources & Geotechnology》2003,21(2):105-114

A code of practice for ocean mining has been developed by the International Marine Minerals Society. The code provides general guiding Principles for development of marine mineral resources and delineates Operating Guidelines for application, as appropriate, at specific mining sites. In total 11 operating guidelines are provided to serve as benchmarks for industry and targets for regulatory agencies and other stakeholders. They include the following commitments: •To sustainable development, •To environmentally responsible corporate ethics, •To the development of effective community partnership, •To implementation of environmental risk management, •To the integration of environmental management into all phases of development, •To the establishment of corporate environmental performance targets, •To timely environmental improvements and upgrading, •To responsible rehabilitation of operations sites and decommissioning of facilities, and •To accurate and timely, reporting and documentation, archiving, and performance review.  相似文献

Influence of relative sea level changes on the construction of the Mississippi Fan     

Arnold H. Bouma  James M. Coleman  Charles E. Stelting  Barry Kohl 《Geo-Marine Letters》1989,9(3):161-170

A conceptual sea-level-driven depositional model for individual fanlobes (channel-overbank systems) of the Mississippi Fan does not permit direct application of the sequence stratigraphic principles of Vail and colleagues. Deep Sea Drilling Project Leg 96 results suggest that, during initial relative lowering of sea level, the canyon and upper fan channel were formed; excavated fine-grained slope sediments may have formed a debris flow deposit base for the fanlobe. Continued lowering produced constructional channel-levee-overbank deposits. Rising relative sea level inhibited input of coarse clastics, and channel depressions filled with muds. A blanket of (hemi)pelagics represents relative high sea level stand.  相似文献   

Simplified limit solutions for the capacity of suction anchors under undrained conditions   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Charles Aubeny  J. Donald Murff   《Ocean Engineering》2005,32(7):864-877

Upper bound plastic limit analyses (PLA) can provide a useful framework for estimating the load capacity of suction caisson anchors in purely cohesive soils. Since arbitrary assumptions regarding the soil stress state are not required in the PLA formulation, it may be used with greater consistency compared to other simplified approaches such as limit equilibrium methods. While PLA methods do not attempt to include all of the complexities of anchor behavior, they can provide a relatively simple framework for visualizing anchor kinematics leading to an understanding of the relative importance of various parameters on suction anchor load capacity. The most rigorous PLA formulations involve postulating a three-dimensional anchor-soil failure mechanism and deriving expressions for internal energy dissipation throughout the mechanism. This approach can involve extensive numerical integrations and a relatively complex scheme for optimizing the failure mechanism to obtain a least upper bound collapse load. Considerable simplification is possible if the problem is formulated in terms of ultimate unit resistances (lateral, axial, and their interaction) that can be exerted by the soil on the caisson. In this case, the caisson failure mechanism can be characterized in terms of one or two optimization variables. Simple expressions for the ultimate unit resistances acting on the caisson can be obtained from several sources including rigorous PLA solutions, finite element techniques, or experimental measurements. General expressions are possible by limiting consideration to common, idealized strength profiles such as uniform or constant gradient. Such simplified formulations are particularly valuable for providing an analysis tool accessible to practicing engineers. Suction caisson anchors can be subjected to a variety of load orientations including nearly vertical uplift forces imposed by the vertical tendons of tension leg platforms, horizontal loads imposed by catenary mooring systems, and inclined loads imposed by taut moorings. Recently, PLA methods have been applied to the analysis of suction caissons subjected to this range of loading conditions. This paper reviews the formulation of these analyses and summarizes the most significant findings.  相似文献   

Automated Kerogen Classification in Microscope Images of Dispersed Kerogen Preparation     

L. I. Kuncheva  J. J. Charles  N. Miles  A. Collins  B. Wells  I. S. Lim 《Mathematical Geosciences》2008,40(6):639-652

We develop the classification part of a system that analyses transmitted light microscope images of dispersed kerogen preparation. The system automatically extracts kerogen pieces from the image and labels each piece as either inertinite or vitrinite. The image pre-processing analysis consists of background removal, identification of kerogen material, object segmentation, object extraction (individual images of pieces of kerogen) and feature calculation for each object. An expert palynologist was asked to label the objects into categories inertinite and vitrinite, which provided the ground truth for the classification experiment. Ten state-of-the-art classifiers and classifier ensembles were compared: Naïve Bayes, decision tree, nearest neighbour, the logistic classifier, multilayered perceptron (MLP), support vector machines (SVM), AdaBoost, Bagging, LogitBoost and Random Forest. The logistic classifier was singled out as the most accurate classifier, with an accuracy greater than 90. Using a 10 times 10-fold cross-validation provided within the Weka software, we found that the logistic classifier was significantly better than five classifiers (p<0.05) and indistinguishable from the other four classifiers. The initial set of 32 features was subsequently reduced to 6 features without compromising the classification accuracy. A further evaluation of the system alerted us to the possible sensitivity of the classification to the ground truth that might vary from one human expert to another. The analysis also revealed that the logistic classifier made most of the correct classifications with a high certainty.  相似文献   

Hostrocks to the stratabound iron-formation-hosted Starra gold-copper deposit,Australia     

G. J. Davidson 《Mineralium Deposita》1994,29(3):237-249

This paper documents the timing, geochemistry and possible origin of sodium enrichment associated with Proterozoic iron formation-hosted copper-gold ore lenses at the Starra deposit, Australia. The ore lenses are immediately underlain by variably sheared albitemagnetite-hematite-pyrite-bearing rocks, and overlain by mainly unaltered, less-sheared, meta-sediments. Evidence indicating that albite was abundant prior to deformation, and also prior to the main hydrothermal addition of Fe, S, Cu and Au, includes (1) regional albite development at this stratigraphic level; (2) alteration of albite by ore-related sericite; and (3) inclusion of unfoliated inclusions of albite and hematite in ore-related pyrite. Nevertheless, albite also developed around dolerites and within hangingwall shears during metamorphism and deformation. Least altered albite footwall rocks have SiO₂ (67.31–73.13 wt.%), Al₂O₃(9.89–12.51 wt.%), total alkali elements (6.40–9.43 wt.%) and HFS elements (e.g., Zr = 179–275 ppm; Ti/Zr = 7.6–14.1) comparable with felsic volcanics, but have high relative Na₂O contents (5.08–5.81 wt. %), and variable to high Na₂O/K₂O ratios (0.05–68.37). An episode of alkali alteration by high-Na fluids prior to the ore-related alteration is postulated to account for sodic compositions, after chemical consideration of the alternatives (1) arkosic sediments; (2) trondhjemitic volcaniclastics; and (3) Na-metasomatism of Staveley Formation sediments. During the most intense ore-alteration, isocon analysis indicates a density increase of 23% compared to the least altered albitised hostrocks. Cu, Fe, Au, Sn, W, Zn, K, Ba and Rb were enriched during the mineralising process, whereas Mn, Ca, Si, Nb and Zr were lost, and Al, Ti and Y were not changed (and were used to define the isocon). The loss of some high field strength elements during this alteration indicates that igneous rock classification diagrams based on immobile element ratios should be used with caution for albitemuscovite magnetite-pyrite assemblages associated with iron formation-hosted copper-gold deposits. Zircon was partially soluble, whereas titanium oxides were probably stable in the saline, high temperature (260°–380 °C), acid (pH = 3.9–6.0) fluids envisaged for ore-related alteration.  相似文献   

Variation in the composition of Lake Bonneville marl: a potential key to lake-level fluctuations and paleoclimate     

Charles G. Oviatt  Geoff D. Habiger  James E. Hay 《Journal of Paleolimnology》1994,11(1):19-30

Lake Bonneville marl provides a stratigraphic record of lake history preserved in its carbonate minerals and stable isotopes. We have analyzed the marl in shallow cores taken at three localities in the Bonneville basin. Chronology for the cores is provided by dated volcanic ashes, ostracode biostratigraphy, and a distinctive lithologic unit believed to have been deposited during and immediately after the Bonneville Flood.A core taken at Monument Point at the north shore of Great Salt Lake encompasses virtually the entire Bonneville lake cycle, including the 26.5 ka Thiokol basaltic ash at the base and deposits representing the overflowing stage at the Provo shoreline at the top of the core. Two cores from the Old River Bed area near the threshold between the Sevier basin and the Great Salt Lake basin (the main body of Lake Bonneville) represent deposition from the end of the Stansbury oscillation ( 20 ka) to post-Provo time ( 13 ka), and one core from near Sunstone Knoll in the Sevier basin provides a nearly complete record of the period when Lake Bonneville flooded the Sevier basin (20–13 ka).In all cores, percent calcium carbonate, the aragonite to calcite ratio, and percent sand were measured at approximately 2-cm intervals, and ¹⁸O and ¹³C were determined in one core from the Old River Bed area. The transgressive period from about 20 ka to 15 ka is represented in all cores, but the general trends and the details of the records are different, probably as a result of water chemistry and water balance differences between the main body and the Sevier basin because they were fed by different rivers and had different hypsometries. The Old River Bed marl sections are intermediate in position and composition between the Monument Point and Sunstone Knoll sections. Variations in marl composition at the Old River Bed, which are correlated with lake-level changes, were probably caused by changes in the relative proportions of water from the two basins, which were caused by shifts in water balance in the lake.This is the second paper in a series of papers published in this issue on Climatic and Tectonic Rhythms in Lake Deposits.  相似文献   

Large,solid particles in the clouds of Venus: Do they exist?     

Owen B. Toon  Boris Ragent  David Colburn  Jacques Blamont  Charles Cot 《Icarus》1984,57(2):143-160

The discovery of large, solid particles in the clouds of Venus is one of the most significant findings of Pioneer Venus because it means that a substantial mass of the clouds is composed of a material other than sulfuric acid. The evidence which suggests that solid particles form a distinctive size mode is reexamined. The mode is defined by a discontinuity between two size ranges of the Pioneer Venus particle size spectrometer. This discontinuity could represent a real size mode. However, it could also be an artifact of the measurement technique. R. G. Knollenberg (1984) discusses several possible instrumental effects which might have caused this discontinuity. It is hypothesized herein that such effects did occur and that the large particles are really the tail of the mode 2 sulfuric acid particle size distribution and are not a separate mode of solid particles. Using such a revised size distribution, it is shown that all of the Pioneer Venus and Venera optical data from the lower clouds can be explained with sulfuric acid droplets without introducing any solid particles. As a by-product of this analysis, it is also found that the upper clouds of Venus must contain a material with a higher refractive index than sulfuric acid. A small quantity of sulfur could account for this observation.  相似文献   

Solar irradiance changes caused by g-modes and large scale convection     

Charles L. Wolff 《Solar physics》1984,93(1):1-13

Solar irradiance measurements from the ACRIM experiment show a clear response to the rotation periods of g-mode oscillations (l = 1, 2, and 3) and their first harmonics. Peaks in the ACRIM spectrum at 16.6, 18.3, 20.7, 36.5, and - 71 days all lie within about 1% of periods arising from g-mode rotation. This means that the g-modes are a fundamental cause of irradiance fluctuations. On time scales of months and less they modulate the irradiance by means of transient flows of global scale which they stimulate in the Sun's convective envelope. Dimensional arguments indicate that the flows carry up heat at an average rate 10^-3 L which is not in conflict with observed changes in the irradiance. Five additional tests for g-modes and large-scale convection are given. An instability is described which undermines diffusion models of sunspot energy storage.  相似文献
