Electron-probe check of fe-distribution in sphalerite grains of the Nagybörzsöny hydrothermal ore deposits,Hungary     

Gábor Pantó  György Pantó 《Mineralium Deposita》1972,7(2):126-140

Micron-scale iron-distribution patterns in sphalerite grains derived from two contrasting mineral assemblages of the Nagybörzsöny hydrothermal ore deposits (high temperature stockwork and low temperature veins), were determined with electron microprobe, pointcounter and continuous chart-recorder measurements along radial profiles. A significant oscillation of iron-content ranging from 8.1 to 18 per cent for stockwork and 4.3 to 15.8 per cent for veins took place during crystal growth. Homogeneous crystal cores are characteristic for vein-filling, while replacement occurring in deeper levels of the stockwork results in mosaic cores. Frequent oscillation of iron content is relevant to top-sections of the ore bodies, copious supply being recorded in recurring shells, whereas scanty, unilateral ones produce crescents arranged in onion-like structure.

Zusammenfassung Bestimmungen der Eisenverteilung wurden an Zinkblendekörnern aus zwei verschiedenen Mineralparagenesen (Hochtemperatur-Stockwerk und Gangfüllungen niederiger Bildungstemperatur) der hydrothermalen Erzlagerstätte Nagybörzsöny im Mikronbereich durch Elektronen-Mikrosonde-Messungen (Punktzählung und kontinuierliche Band-Registrierung) entlang radialer Profile vorgenommen. Bedeutende Schwankungen des Eisengehaltes (8,1–18% für das Stockwerk und 4,3–15,8% für die Gänge) wurden registriert. Homogene Kristallkerne kennzeichnen die Gangfüllungen, wogegen in tieferen Horizonten des Stockwerks Verdrängungen zur Bildung von Kristallen mit Mosaik-Kernen führen. Allgemein ist in den Gipfel-Partien der Erzkörper Fluktuation des Eisengehaltes häufig. Gleichmäßiger Nachschub während des Kristallwachstums führte zu ringförmigen Zonen gleicher Eisengehalte, spärlicher oder einseitiger dagegen zu halbmondförmigen Hüllen mit Zwiebelstruktur.

Scaling Law for the Heating of Solar Coronal Loops     

Dmitruk P  Gómez DO 《The Astrophysical journal》1999,527(1):L63-L66

We report preliminary results from a series of numerical simulations of the reduced magnetohydrodynamic equations used to describe the dynamics of magnetic loops in active regions of the solar corona. A stationary velocity field is applied at the photospheric boundaries to imitate the driving action of granule motions. A turbulent stationary regime is reached, characterized by a broadband power spectrum Ek approximately k-3&solm0;2 and heating rate levels compatible with the energy requirements of active region loops. A dimensional analysis of the equations indicates that their solutions are determined by two dimensionless parameters: the Reynolds number and the ratio between the Alfvén time and the photospheric turnover time. From a series of simulations for different values of this ratio, we determine how the heating rate scales with the physical parameters of the problem, which might be useful for an observational test of this model.  相似文献   

Analyzing ice dynamics using Sentinel-1 data at the Solheimajoküll Glacier,Iceland

ABSTRACT

The climate in southern Iceland has warmed over the last 70 years, resulting in accelerated glacier dynamics at the Solheimajoküll glacier. In this study, we compare glacier terminus locations from 1973 to 2018, to changes in climate across the study area, and we derive ice-surface velocities (2015–2018) from satellite remote-sensing imagery (Sentinel-1) using the offset-tracking method. There have been two regional temperature trends in the study period: cooling (1973–1979) and warming (1980–2018). Our results indicate a time lag of about 20 years between the onset of glacier retreat (?53 m/year since 2000) and the inception of the warming period. Seasonally, the velocity time series suggest acceleration during the summer melt season since 2016, whereas glacier velocities during accumulation months were constant. The highest velocities were observed at high elevations where the ice-surface slope is the steepest. We tested several scenarios to assess the hydrological time response to glacier accelerations, with the highest correlations being found between one and 30 days after the velocity estimates. Monthly correlation analyses indicated inter-annual and intra-annual variability in the glacier dynamics. Additionally, we investigate the linkage between glacier velocities and meltwater outflow parameters as they provide useful information about internal processes in the glacier. Velocity estimates positively correlate with water level and negatively correlate with water conductivity between April and August. There is also a disruption in the correlation trend between water conductivity and ice velocity in June, potentially due to a seasonal release of geothermal water.  相似文献   

Combining European Earth Observation products with Dynamic Global Vegetation Models for estimating Essential Biodiversity Variables     

Mateus Dantas de Paula  Marta Gómez Giménez  Aidin Niamir  Martin Thurner  Thomas Hickler 《International Journal of Digital Earth》2020,13(2):262-277

ABSTRACT

Global, fast and accessible monitoring of biodiversity is one of the main pillars of the efforts undertaken in order to revert it loss. The Group on Earth Observations Biodiversity Observation Network (GEO-BON) provided an expert-based definition of the biological properties that should be monitored, the Essential Biodiversity Variables (EBVs). Initiatives to provide indicators for EBVs rely on global, freely available remote sensing (RS) products in combination with empirical models and field data, and are invaluable for decision making. In this study, we provide alternatives for the expansion and improvement of the EBV indicators, by suggesting current and future data from the European Space Agencýs COPERNICUS and explore the potential of RS-integrated Dynamic Global Vegetation Models (DGVMs) for the estimation of EBVs. Our review found that mainly due to the inclusion of the Sentinel constellation, Copernicus products have similar or superior potential for EBV indicator estimation in relation to their NASA counterparts. DGVMs simulate the ecosystem level EBVs (ecosystem function and structure), and when integrated with remote sensing data have great potential to not only offer improved estimation of current states but to provide projection of ecosystem impacts. We suggest that focus on producing EBV relevant outputs should be a priority within the research community, to support biodiversity preservation efforts.  相似文献   

The integral equation approach to the study of interplanetary dust     

J. Buitrago  R. Gómez  F. Sánche 《Planetary and Space Science》1983,31(4):373-376

Some considerations about the zodiacal light brightness integral from the stand point of the theory of integral equations are made. It is shown that for observation directions confined to a plane perpendicular to the ecliptic and passing through the Sun, the Z.L. brightness integral can be formally considered as a first kind integral equation of Volterra type (V.I.E.). In a second step, this equation is transformed into a V.I.E. of the second kind, from which, and under certain assumptions, the spatial distribution of dust out of the ecliptic is obtained.  相似文献   

Circulation and fertility of waters in Concepcion Bay     

Ahumada B. Ramón  Rudolph G. Anny  Martinez M. Victorino 《Estuarine, Coastal and Shelf Science》1983,16(1):95-105

The spatial and temporal distributions of oxygen, nutrients and pigments in the waters of Concepcion Bay, Chile (36°40′S, 73°01′W) are described for 1978–1979. Analysis of the seasonal fluctuations shows the upwelling of water poor in oxygen and rich in nutrients inside the bay during summer. The upwelled water fertilizes the bay and produces progressive eutrophication, causing mass mortalities, discoloured water and mineralization of organic matter.  相似文献   

Efstadalsvatn – a multi-proxy study of a Holocene lacustrine sequence from NW Iceland     

Chris Caseldine  Áslaug Geirsdóttir  Peter Langdon 《Journal of Paleolimnology》2003,30(1):55-73

Multi-proxy data, both lithostratigraphic and biostratigraphic, are presented from Efstadalsvatn, a lake in NW Iceland. The sequence covers the period 10,000 to 3500 ¹⁴C yr B.P. The biostratgraphic data include the first Icelandic chironomid-based reconstruction of Holocene mean July air temperatures, using a Norwegian training set in the absence of modern Icelandic data. The results show that deglaciation and ecosystem development probably began before 10,000 ¹⁴C yr B.P. and that July temperatures were around 4°C at ca. 9500 ¹⁴C yr B.P. Temperatures then rose to ca. 8°C at the time of the deposition of the Saksunarvatn tephra (9100 ¹⁴C yr B.P.), reaching ca. 10°C by 8500 ¹⁴C yr B.P., high enough for the growth of tree birch, although successful birch colonisation did not take place until 6750 ¹⁴C yr B.P. There is some evidence for cooling immediately preceding 9100 ¹⁴C yr B.P. There is little firm biostratigraphic evidence for the 8200 cal. B.P. event, although this may be due to a relatively low resolution pollen sampling interval, but there are changes at this time in the total carbon (TC) and mass susceptibility (MS) data. Optimal temperatures and relative vegetation stability may have occurred between 8000–6100 ¹⁴C yr B.P. but the chironomid assemblages indicate higher temperatures after 5000 ¹⁴C yr B.P. This latter interpretation may, however, reflect delayed colonisation of thermophilous taxa and requires further investigation. There is evidence in the lithostratigraphy for greater local terrestrial instability after 6100 ¹⁴C yr B.P. but it seems unlikely that this led to the redevelopment of ice in the catchment. The biostratigraphic records appear to show a degree of resistence to climate forcing throughout the early and middle Holocene. The new chironomid-based temperature reconstruction needs to be refined by further studies in Iceland, particularly the development of an Icelandic training set, but has already demonstrated the problems of paleoclimatic interpretations based on pollen and/or macrofossil evidence alone.  相似文献   

Studies on Intercorrelation between Ions Co-Occurring in Precipitation in the Gdańsk-Sopot-Gdynia Tricity (Poland)     

Żaneta Polkowska  Aleksander Astel  Marzena Grynkiewicz  Tadeusz Górecki  Jacek Namieśnik 《Journal of Atmospheric Chemistry》2002,41(3):239-264

The paper presents monitoring results and environmental pollution assessment for the Gdask-Sopot-Gdynia Tricity (Poland), based onanalysis of precipitation. Precipitation samples were collected over a period of 12 months (January–December 1998) at ten locations in the Tricity. The following selected ions were determined in the samples:SO₄ ^2–, F^–, Cl^–, NO₃ ^–,PO₄ ^3–, NH₄ ⁺, Na⁺,Mg²⁺, Ca²⁺, K⁺. The results were subjected to full statistical evaluation. Values of the parameters determined were correlated with each other. An attempt was made to explain co-occurrences of certain ions and the significance of their mutual effects. Pollutant concentrations and loads in precipitation were also correlated with data on wind direction and temperature in the region.Deposition of pollutants was very high in spring due to the prevailing air circulation patterns and low temperatures. Analysis of the correlations between co-occurring ions confirmed the significant impact of the location (sea coast) on the composition of rain water. Ionic ratios in rainwater were similar to those observed for sea salt samples. In addition, heavy traffic was most probably responsible for high concentrations of various forms of nitrogen and sulphates in the vicinity of major highways.  相似文献   

The Magnetic Helicity Budget of a cme-Prolific Active Region     

Green  L.M.  López fuentes  M.C.  Mandrini  C.H.  Démoulin  P.  Van Driel-Gesztelyi  L.  Culhane  J.L. 《Solar physics》2002,208(1):43-68

Coronal mass ejections (CMEs) are thought to be the way by which the solar corona expels accumulated magnetic helicity which is injected into the corona via several methods. DeVore (2000) suggests that a significant quantity is injected by the action of differential rotation, however Démoulin et al. (2002b), based on the study of a simple bipolar active region, show that this may not be the case. This paper studies the magnetic helicity evolution in an active region (NOAA 8100) in which the main photospheric polarities rotate around each other during five Carrington rotations. As a result of this changing orientation of the bipole, the helicity injection by differential rotation is not a monotonic function of time. Instead, it experiences a maximum and even a change of sign. In this particular active region, both differential rotation and localized shearing motions are actually depleting the coronal helicity instead of building it. During this period of five solar rotations, a high number of CMEs (35 observed, 65 estimated) erupted from the active region and the helicity carried away has been calculated, assuming that each can be modeled by a twisted flux rope. It is found that the helicity injected by differential rotation (–7×10⁴² Mx²) into the active region cannot provide the amount of helicity ejected via CMEs, which is a factor 5 to 46 larger and of the opposite sign. Instead, it is proposed that the ejected helicity is provided by the twist in the sub-photospheric part of the magnetic flux tube forming the active region.  相似文献
