Heimefrontfjella and Mannefallknausane, in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica, comprise an amphibolite-facies terrain and a granulite terrain, separated by a major mylonite zone. The amphibolite terrain is made up of mafic to felsic metavolcanics and metasediments, intruded by granitoid plutons: the granulite terrain has supracrustal rocks with similar lithologies, intruded by felsic plutonic rocks that crystallized as charnockites.U-Pb zircon ages (conventional and ion microprobe) demonstrate that magmatic activity was confined to a relatively short interval between 1130 and 1045 Ma and was followed in the amphibolite terrain by metamorphism around 1060 Ma. Specific ages are as follows: metarhyolite in the amphibolite terrain, 1093 ± 38 Ma; granitoids in the amphibolite terrain, 1045 ± 9 Ma to 1107 ± 16 Ma, charnockites in the granulite terrain, 1073 ± 8 Ma to 1135 ± 8 Ma, metamorphic zircons in garnet amphibolite and a post-metamorphic pegmatite, both 1060 ± 8 Ma. Older zircons were found only in a metasediment which yielded discordant zircon fractions with²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁶Pb ages between 1250 and 1450 Ma, and in a granulite facies metaquartzite, which contained concordant zircons with the following ages: 1104 ± 5 Ma, 1215 ± 15 Ma, 1400 Ma, 1700 Ma, 2000 Ma. The youngest age is interpreted as the age of granulite metamorphism, the older ages as those of detrital zircons.A Sm-Nd mineral isochron age of the garnet amphibolite (960 ± 120 Ma) agrees within error with the U-Pb age of metamorphic zircons (1060 ± 8 Ma). Initial _Nd values (T = 1.1 Ga) for 15 samples range from +4 to–4. The highest came from a metabasalt and two granitoids from Milorgfjella, the northern area; the lowest from the granulite-facies metasediment and from a charnockite, both from Vardeklettane, a nunatak in the south. The positive but subdued values preclude generation directly from depleted MORB-type mantle _Nd + 6 to + 7 at 1.1 Ga) and indicate generation from a source containing older crustal material.

Zusammenfassung Die Gebiete um Heimefrontfjella und Mannefallknausane in Dronning Maud Land, Antarktis, bestehen aus amphibolith- und granulitfaziellen Grundgebirgskomplexen, die durch eine große Mylonitzone voneinander getrennt sind. Der amphibolithfazielle Komplex besteht aus mafisch bis felsischen Metavulkaniten und Metasedimenten, die von Granitplutonen intrudiert werden. Der Granulitkomplex enthält Suprakrustalgesteine ähnlicher Art, die von Charnockiten intrudiert werden.U-Pb-Alter, die mit der konventionellen Multikorn-Methode und an der Ionen-Mikrosonde an Einzelkörner bestimmt wurden, engen die magmatische Aktivität zwischen 1130 und 1045 Ma ein. Auf diese Periode folgte in dem amphibolithfaziellen Gebiet eine Regionalmetamorphose um 1060 Ma. Die Einzelalter sind wie folgt: in dem amphibolithfaziellen Komplex ergab ein Metarhyolith 1039 ± 38 Ma, während die Granitoide zwischen 1045 ± 9 Ma und 1107 ± 16 Ma variieren. In dem Granulitkomplex wurden die Charnockite auf 1073 ± 8 Ma bis 1135 ± 8 Ma datiert, während metamorphe Zirkone aus einem Granatamphibolith sowie aus einem posttektonischen Pegmatit identische Alter von 1060 ± 8 Ma ergaben. Ältere Komponenten wurden lediglich in einer Metasediment-Probe gefunden, die diskordante Zirkone mit²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁶Pb Altern zwischen ca. 1250 und 1450 Ma enthielt, sowie in einem granulitfaziellen Metaquarzit, in dem konkordante Zirkone die folgenden Alter ergaben: 1104 ± 5 Ma, 1215 ± 15 Ma, 1400 Ma, 1700 Ma, 2000 Ma. Das jüngste Zirkonalter aus dem Metaquarzit interpretieren wir als Zeitpunkt der Granulitmetamorphose, während die höheren Alter detritische Komponenten repräsentieren.Eine Sm-Nd Mineralisochrone für einen Granatamphibolith hat ein Alter von 960 ± 120 Ma, das innerhalb der experimentellen Fehler mit einem U-Pb-Alter von 1060 ± 8 Ma für metamorphe Zirkone übereinstimmt. Initiale _Nd-Werte (T = l.1 Ga) für 15 Proben variieren zwischen +4 und -4. Die höchsten Werte wurden für einen Metabasalt und zwei Granitoide von Milorgfjella im nördlichen Arbeitsgebiet bestimmt. Die niedrigsten Werte stammen aus dem granulitfaziellen Metaquarzit und von einem Charnockit, beide aus Vardeklettane, einem Nunatak im Süden. Die leicht positiven Werte lassen eine juvenile Bildung der Wirtsgesteine aus einem MORB-ähnlichen Mantel (_Nd + 6 bis + 7 um 1.1 Ga) nicht zu und deuten ein Ausgangsmaterial mit Komponenten älterer kontinentaler Kruste an.

Résumé Les régions de Heimefrontfjella et Mannefallknausane situées dans le Dronning Maud Land en Antartique sont formées par deux zones principales à degrés métamorphiques différents: une à faciès amphibolitique et une autre à faciès granulitiques, séparées par une zone mylonitique. Des roches métavolcaniques à composition variant de basique à felsique ainsi que des roches d'origine sédimentaire composent la zone amphibolitique. Elles sont recoupées par des plutons granitiques. La zone granulitique est formée également par des roches d'origine volcanique et sedimentaire qui sont, elles, recoupées par des charnockites.Les mesures d'U-Pb sur zircons (utilisant la méthode conventionnelle et la microsonde ionique) montrent que l'activité magmatique s'est confinée à une période relativement courte entre 1130 Ma et 1045 Ma. Elle a été suivie par un métamorphisme, il y a 1060 Ma, dans la zone amphibolitique. De façon plus détaillée, les âges sont les suivants: dans la zone amphibolitique, rhyolite datée à 1093 ± 38 Ma, granitoïdes datés à 1045 ± 9 Ma et 1107 ± 16 Ma; dans la zone granulitique, charnockites datées entre 1073 ± 8 Ma et 1135 ± 8 Ma, zircons métamorphiques provenant d'une amphibolite à grenat datés à 1060 ± 8 Ma et pegmatite postmétamorphique datée à 1060 ± 8 Ma. Deux roches ont fourni des zircons donnant des âges plus anciens: un sédiment métamorphisé et un metaquartzite. Les âges²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁶Pb obtenus pour les fractions discordantes des zircons du metasediment varient entre 1250 et 1450 Ma alors que le metaquartzite contient des zircons concordants avec les âges suivants: 1104±5 Ma, 1215±15Ma, 1400 Ma, 1700 Ma et 2000 Ma. L'âge le plus jeune obtenu pour le métaquartzite est interprété comme représentant l'âge du métamorphisme granulitique alors que les âges plus anciens représentent les âges de zircons détritiques.Une isochrone Sm-Nd sur minéraux a été obtenue sur une amphibolite à grenat. Elle définit un âge de 960 ± 120 Ma qui correspond, aux erreurs près, à l'âge U-Pb des zircons métamorphiques (1060 ± 8 Ma). Les _Ndinitiaux (T = 1,l Ga) obtenus pour 15 échantillons varient entre +4 et –4. Les valeurs les plus élevées ont été obtenues pour un basalte et deux granitoïdes de Milorgfjella situés dans la partie nord; les valeur _Nd les plus faibles proviennent du métasédiment dans la zone granulitique et d'une charnockite. Ces deux échantillons se situent dans le nunatak Vardeklettane dans le Sud. Les _Nd étant positifs mais toutefois plus faibles que la valeur du manteau appauvri à cette période (entre +6 et +7 à 1,1 Ma), une extraction directe du manteau ne peut être retenue et nous suggérons que la région source contenait du matériau crustal plus ancien.

Evolution of a Holsteinian (MIS 11c) palaeolake based on a 12‐ka‐long diatom record from Dethlingen (northern Germany)     

Andreas Koutsodendris  André F. Lotter  Emiliya Kirilova  Florence T. M. Verhagen  Achim Brauer  Jörg Pross 《Boreas: An International Journal of Quaternary Research》2013,42(3):714-728

To provide insights into the long‐term evolution of aquatic ecosystems without human interference, we here evaluate a decadal‐ to centennial‐scale‐resolution diatom record spanning about 12 ka of the Holsteinian interglacial (Marine Isotope Stage 11c). Using a partially varved sediment core from the Dethlingen palaeolake (northern Germany), which has previously been studied for palynological and microfacies signals, we document the co‐evolution of the aquatic and surrounding terrestrial environment. The diatom record is dominated by the genera Stephanodiscus, Aulacoseira, Ulnaria and Fragilaria. Based on the diatom assemblages and physical sediment properties, the evolution of the Dethlingen palaeolake can be subdivided into three major phases. During the oldest phase (lasting ～1900 varve years), the lake was ～10–15 m deep and characterized by anoxic bottom‐water conditions and a high nutrient content. The following ～5600 years exhibited water depths >20 m, maximum diatom and Pediastrum productivity, and a peak in allochtonous nutrient input. During this phase, water‐column mixing became more vigorous, resulting in a breakdown of anoxia. The youngest lake phase (～4000–5000 years) was characterized by decreasing water depth, turbulent water conditions and decreased nutrient loading. Based on our palaeolimnological data, we conclude that the evolution of the Dethlingen palaeolake during the Holsteinian interglacial responded closely to (i) changes within the catchment area (as documented by vegetation and sedimentation) related to the transition from closed forests growing on nutrient‐rich soils (mesocratic forest phase) to open forests developing on poor soils (oligocratic forest phase), and (ii) short‐term climate variability as reflected in centennial‐scale climate perturbations.  相似文献   

River flux uncertainties predicted by hydrological variability and riverine material behaviour     

Florentina Moatar  Michel Meybeck  Sébastien Raymond  François Birgand  Florence Curie 《水文研究》2013,27(25):3535-3546

Data on riverine fluxes are essential for calculating element cycles (carbon, nutrients, pollutants) and erosion rates from regional to global scales. At most water‐quality stations throughout the world, riverine fluxes are calculated from continuous flow data (q) and discrete concentration data (C), the latter being the main cause of sometimes large uncertainties. This article offers a comprehensive approach for predicting the magnitude of these uncertainties for water‐quality stations in medium to large basins (drainage basin area > 1000 km²) based on the commonly used discharge‐weighted method. Uncertainty levels – biases and imprecisions – for sampling intervals of 3 to 60 days are correlated first through a nomograph with a flux variability indicator, the quantity of riverine material discharged in 2% of time (M_2%). In turn, M_2% is estimated from the combination of a hydrological reactivity index, W_2% (the cumulative flow volume discharged during the upper 2% of highest daily flow) and the truncated b_50sup exponent, quantifying the concentration versus discharge relationship for the upper half of flow values (C = a q ^b50sup, for q > q₅₀, where q₅₀ is the median flow): M_2% = W_2% + 27.6b_50sup. W_2% can be calculated from continuous flow measurements, and the b_50sup indicator can be calculated from infrequent sampling, which makes it possible to predict a priori the level of uncertainty at any station, for any type of riverine material either concentrated (b_50sup > 0) or diluted (b_50sup > 0) with flow. A large data base of daily surveys, 125 station variables of suspended particulate matter (SPM), total dissolved solids (TDS) and dissolved and particulate nutrients, was used to determine uncertainties from simulated discrete surveys and to establish relationships between indicators. Results show, for example, that for the same relatively reactive basin (W_2% > 25%), calculated fluxes from monthly sampling would yield uncertainties approaching ±100% for SPM (b_50sup > 1.4) fluxes and ±10% for TDS (b_50sup = ?0.2). The application to the nitrate survey of the river Seine shows significant trends for the 1972–2009 records. Copyright © 2012 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

Wave-induced setup of the mean surface over a sloping beach     

Jan Erik H. Weber  Kai H. Christensen  Cléa Denamiel 《Continental Shelf Research》2009,29(11-12):1448-1453

A new theoretical approach for the wave-induced setup over a sloping beach is presented that takes into consideration the explicit variations of the surface waves due to bottom slope and viscosity. In this way, the wave forcing of the mean Lagrangian volume fluxes is calculated without assuming that the local depth is constant. The analysis is valid in the region outside the surf zone and is based on the shallow-water assumption. A novel approach for separating the viscous damping of the waves from the frictional damping of the mean flow is introduced, where the mean Eulerian velocity is applied in the bottom stress for the mean fluxes. In the case where the onshore Lagrangian mean transport is zero, a new formula is derived for the Eulerian mean free surface slope, in which the effects of bottom slope, viscous wave damping and frictional bottom drag on the mean flow are clearly identified. The analysis suggests that viscous damping of the waves and frictional dissipation of the Eulerian near-bed return flow could lead to setup outside the surf zone.  相似文献

PEPSI is the bench‐mounted, two‐arm, fibre‐fed and stabilized Potsdam Echelle Polarimetric and Spectroscopic Instrument for the 2×8.4 m Large Binocular Telescope (LBT). Three spectral resolutions of either 43 000, 120 000 or 270 000 can cover the entire optical/red wavelength range from 383 to 907 nm in three exposures. Two 10.3k×10.3k CCDs with 9‐µm pixels and peak quantum efficiencies of 94–96 % record a total of 92 échelle orders. We introduce a new variant of a wave‐guide image slicer with 3, 5, and 7 slices and peak efficiencies between 92–96 %. A total of six cross dispersers cover the six wavelength settings of the spectrograph, two of them always simultaneously. These are made of a VPH‐grating sandwiched by two prisms. The peak efficiency of the system, including the telescope, is 15 % at 650 nm, and still 11 % and 10 % at 390 nm and 900 nm, respectively. In combination with the 110 m² light‐collecting capability of the LBT, we expect a limiting magnitude of ≈20th mag in V in the low‐resolution mode. The R = 120 000 mode can also be used with two, dual‐beam Stokes IQUV polarimeters. The 270 000‐mode is made possible with the 7‐slice image slicer and a 100‐µm fibre through a projected sky aperture of 0.74″, comparable to the median seeing of the LBT site. The 43 000‐mode with 12‐pixel sampling per resolution element is our bad seeing or faint‐object mode. Any of the three resolution modes can either be used with sky fibers for simultaneous sky exposures or with light from a stabilized Fabry‐Pérot étalon for ultra‐precise radial velocities. CCD‐image processing is performed with the dedicated data‐reduction and analysis package PEPSI‐S4S. Its full error propagation through all image‐processing steps allows an adaptive selection of parameters by using statistical inferences and robust estimators. A solar feed makes use of PEPSI during day time and a 500‐m feed from the 1.8 m VATT can be used when the LBT is busy otherwise. In this paper, we present the basic instrument design, its realization, and its characteristics. Some pre‐commissioning first‐light spectra shall demonstrate the basic functionality.

Characterization of Asian Dust during ACE-Asia   总被引：4，自引：1，他引：3

ACE-Asia was a multi-national collaboration organized to investigate and understand the chemistry, radiative properties, and climatic effects of mineral dust and other aerosol particles in the East Asia/Northwest Pacific region. Studies conducted at the Gosan and Zhenbeitai surface supersites show striking variations in aerosol concentrations and properties that were affected by the occurrence and origins of the Asian dust storms, air mass pathways, and mixing during the transport. Investigations conducted on the R/V Ronald H. Brown (RHB) showed that dust had a pervasive influence on the chemical composition, size distribution, and optical properties of the aerosol. Analyses using an aerosol time-of-flight mass spectrometer on the RHB showed that most of the coarse-particle nitrate and sulfate in post-frontal air was associated with dust, and more remarkably, that competitive or exclusionary processes evidently are involved in the uptake or production of these substances. Studies conducted onboard the NCAR C-130 aircraft showed that coarse-mode dust was less absorbing and less hygroscopic than pollution aerosol and that there was little correlation in light scattering and absorption by the sub- vs. super-micrometer aerosol. Below 2 km, dust was commonly mixed with pollutants, and this had a stronger influence on the optical properties of the submicrometer particles than the coarse-mode dust; at higher altitudes, the dust was less affected by pollution. Single particle analyses of C-130 samples showed that the mixing of black carbon (BC) with dust was common, but only certain types of BC particles were aggregated. Models were used in the planning, execution and interpretative phases of ACE-Asia; and summaries of modeling results are presented to illustrate the progress being made in identifying new dust sources; in depicting the time-varying, three-dimensional structure of dust plumes; and in quantifying the production, transport, and deposition of Asian dust.  相似文献
