Meta-igneous origin of Hercynian peraluminous granites in N.W. French Massif Central: implications for crustal history reconstructions     

Laurent Turpin  Michel Cuney  Marc Friedrich  Jean-Luc Bouchez  Monique Aubertin 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1990,104(2):163-172

Seventy samples of Hercynian peraluminous granites (Guéret, Millevaches and Saint Sylvestre massifs) and metamorphic units of the Limousin area were analysed for Rb–Sr and Sm–Nd. The source rocks of the peraluminous granites can be found in the metamorphic rocks of Limousin, among them meta-igneous rocks were largely predominent over meta-sedimentary rocks in the source of the three granites. Millevaches and Guéret granites were generated by the partial melting of rocks comprising meta-volcanics and meta-sediments, whereas the Saint Sylvestre granite was produced exclusively by the melting of late Precambrian granites. This leads to confusing T _DM ^Nd values, the confusion being amplified by the segregation of monazite during the petrogenetic evolution of the peraluminous granites, which leads to dramatic fractionation in Sm/Nd ratios. The data of the present study tend to demonstrate that peraluminous granites do not give a good representation of isotopic mean crustal estimates. Late Precambrian time seems, however, to have been a period of extensive crustal generation in Western Europe.  相似文献   

Radioisotopic evidence of perturbations of recent sedimentary record in lakes: a word of caution for climate studies     

Janusz Dominik  Jean-Luc Loizeau  Daniel Span 《Climate Dynamics》1992,6(3-4):145-152

The rate of climatic change estimated from the gradient of signals recorded in lake sediments may be erroneous if post-depositional perturbations are overlooked. A smear out of a pulse signal, over a variable thickness of core section, due to physical or biological mixing, is a well known phenomena. Much less attention is paid to a possible overestimation of the rate of change when a part of record is missing due to an erosion event. In this paper we show a few examples of recent lake sediment perturbations and the resulting distortions in the time scale, as documented by short-lived radionuclides.Contribution to Clima Locarno — Past and Present Climate Dynamics; Conference September 1990, Swiss Academy of Sciences — National Climate Program  相似文献   

L'événement intraviséen dans la zone moldanubienne de la chaîne varisque d'Europe: les données des formations volcano-sédimentaires dévono-dinantiennes du Massif Central Français,des Vosges du Sud (France) et de la Forêt Noire (R.F.A.)

Resumé L'existence d'une phase tectonique intraviséenne dans la chaîne varisque d'Europe a été admise par divers auteurs. Le présent travail apporte des précisions sur la nature de cet événement dans le Nord du Massif Central, les Vosges et la Forêt Noire, c'est à dire dans la zone interne varisque. Des données nouvelles concernent les Vosges et la Forêt Noire. Dans le domaine étudié, cet événement géodynamique n'est pas phcatif et se caractérise par une période d'instabilité au cours du Viséen supérieur qui conduit à d'importants phénomènes de resédimentation, résultats de l'érosion de paléoreliefs. Cette période d'instabilité se prolonge au cours du Viséen supérieur où une emersion généralisée se produit dans la zone moldanubienne. Dans les zones externes septentrionales, la déformation synmétamorphique qui se déplace vers l'extérieur de la chaîne est contemporaine de cet événement. Dans le massif armoricain (zone externe), il se traduit par des mouvements décrochants. Cet événement s'explique par un épaississement crustal, conséquence directe de la collision varisque et se traduit par un soulèvement qui précède la phase de déformation paroxysmale d'âge tardi-viséen et carbonifère supérieur.

The existence of an Intravisean tectonic phase in the variscan belt of Europe is admitted by some authors. The present work specifies the characteristics of such an event in the northern part of the French Massif Central, in the Vosges mountains and in the Black Forest, i.e. in the internal variscan zone. New data are given for the Vosges and the Black Forest. In the considered domain the geodynamic event does not have a folding effect. It leads to a period of instability during Late Visean, inducing important resedimentation processes as a result of erosion of the paleoreliefs. A generalized emersion of the Moldanubian Zone occurs at the same time. This event coincides with the migration toward the North of the syn-metamorphic deformation in the extern parts of the belt. In the Armorican Massif (external zone) strike slip faults are active during the same period. That event can be explained by the crustal thickening resulting from the variscan collision. The uplift preceds the paroxysmal Late Visean and Upper Carboniferous tectonic phase.

Zusammenfassung Verschiedene Autoren vertreten die Meinung, daß das mitteleuropäische Variszikum innerhalb des Visé von einer tektonischen Phase betroffen wurde. Die gegenwärtige Arbeit soll eine genauere Vorstellung von den Ereignissen geben, welche sich um diese Zeit im nördlichen Zentralmassiv, den Vogesen und dem Schwarzwald abspielten. Innerhalb des angeführten Bereiches läßt sich nirgends eine Faltung beobachten. Es handelt sich vielmehr um ein geodynarmsches Ereignis, welches sich im obereren Visé als eine Periode der Instabilität mit sehr beachtlichen Erosionen einerseits und ebenso bedeutenden Resedimentationen andererseits äußert. Diese Zeit der Instabilität mündet noch im Laufe des obersten Visé in einer allgemeinen Heraushebung des Moldanubikums. Das Intra-Visé Ereignis ist zeitgleich mit der nordwärtigen Wanderung der synmetamorphen Deformation in den externen Zonen. Im armorikanischen Massiv fällt es anscheinend mit bedeutenden Blattverschiebungen zusammen. Offensichtlich steht hinter den Vorgängen als Ursache eine relativ plötzliche Krustenverdickung im Zusammenhang mit der variszischen Kollision. Die Heraushebung geht der paroxysmalen Deformation im späten Visé bzw. frühen Oberkarbon voraus.

Two examples of subaqueously welded ash-flow tuffs: the Visean of southern Vosges (France) and the Upper Cretaceous of northern Anatolia (Turkey)     

Jean-Luc Schneider  Claude Fourquin  Jean-Claude Paicheler 《Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research》1992,49(3-4)

Pyroclastic deposits interpreted as subaqueous ash-flow tuff have been recognized within Archean to Recent marine and lacustrine sequences. Several authors proposed a high-temperature emplacement for some of these tuffs. However, the subaqueous welding of pyroclastic deposits remains controversial.The Visean marine volcaniclastic formations of southern Vosges (France) contain several layers of rhyolitic and rhyodacitic ash-flow tuff. These deposits include, from proximal to distal settings, breccia, lapilli and fine-ash tuff. The breccia and lapilli tuff are partly welded, as indicated by the presence of fiamme, fluidal and axiolitic structures. The lapilli tuff form idealized sections with a lower, coarse and welded unit and an upper, bedded and unwelded fine-ash tuff. Sedimentary structures suggest that the fine-ash tuff units were deposited by turbidity currents. Welded breccias, interbedded in a thick submarine volcanic complex, indicate the close proximity of the volcanic source. The lapilli and fine-ash tuff are interbedded in a thick marine sequence composed of alternating sandstones and shales. Presence of a marine stenohaline fauna and sedimentary structures attest to a marine depositional environment below storm-wave base.In northern Anatolia, thick massive sequences of rhyodacitic crystal tuff are interbedded with the Upper Cretaceous marine turbidites of the Mudurnu basin. Some of these tuffs are welded. As in southern Vosges, partial welding is attested by the presence of fiamme and fluidal structures. The latter are frequent in the fresh vitric matrix. These tuff units contain a high proportion of vitroclasis, and were emplaced by ash flows. Welded tuff units are associated with non-welded crystal tuff, and contain abundant bioclasts which indicate mixing with water during flowage. At the base, basaltic breccia beds are associated with micritic beds containing a marine fauna. The welded and non-welded tuff sequences are interbedded in an alternation of limestones and marls. These limestones are rich in pelagic microfossils.The evidence above strongly suggest that in both examples, tuff beds are partly welded and were emplaced at high temperature by subaqueous ash flows in a permanent marine environment. The sources of the pyroclastic material are unknown in both cases. We propose that the ash flows were produced during submarine fissure eruptions. Such eruptions could produce non-turbulent flows which were insulated by a steam carapace before deposition and welding. The welded ash-flow tuff deposits of southern Vosges and northern Anatolia give strong evidence for existence of subaqueous welding.  相似文献   

Contrasted modes of amphibole development in coronitic metagabbros: a TEM investigation     

G. Trolliard  M. Boudeulle  J. M. Lardeaux  J. L. Potdevin 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1988,16(2):130-139

A TEM investigation of amphibole development in granulitic metagabbros is presented. Three different sites of amphibole nucleation and growth are observed: (i) in the clinopyroxene-plagioclase interphase boundaries, corresponding to a reconstructive transformation involving intercrystalline diffusion; (ii) along pyroxene fractures, with competition between inter- and intracrystalline diffusion; (iii) within the pyroxene crystals, through a topotactic conversion, controlled by intracrystalline diffusion. These different reaction sites are studied in order to discuss some aspects of reaction mechanisms within undeformed metamorphic rocks, putting into balance intracrystalline versus intercrystalline processes. According to the possible paths (crystal lattice and its defects, fractures and mineral interfaces), contrasted amounts of reaction products, together with different amphibole compositions are evidenced. These results indicate that the diffusion rate of Al, Fe, Mg and OH is the rate controlling factor for amphibole-forming reaction.  相似文献   

The East Caledonian Current: A Case Example for the Intercomparison between AltiKa and In Situ Measurements in a Boundary Current     

Fabien Durand  Frédéric Marin  Jean-Luc Fuda  Thierry Terre 《Marine Geodesy》2017,40(1):1-22

This paper presents an assessment of SARAL/AltiKa satellite altimeter for the monitoring of a tropical western boundary current in the south-western Pacific Ocean: the East Caledonian Current. We compare surface geostrophic current estimates obtained from two versions of AltiKa along-track sea level height (AVISO 1 Hz and PEACHI 40 Hz) with two kinds of dedicated in situ datasets harvested along the satellite ground tracks: one deep-ocean current-meter mooring deployed in the core of the boundary current and five glider transects. It is concluded that the AltiKa-derived current successfully captures the velocity of the boundary current, with a standard error of 11 cm/s with respect to the in situ data. It also appears important to reference AltiKa sea level anomaly to the latest mean dynamic topography available in our area. Doing so, Ka-band altimetry provides a satisfactory representation of the western boundary current. Thereby, it usefully contributes to observing its variability in such a remote and under-observed ocean region. However, the rather long repeat period of SARAL (35 days) in comparison to the high frequency variability seen in the flow velocity of the boundary current calls for a combined use of SARAL with the other satellite altimetry missions.  相似文献   

Biogeochemistry and dynamics of settling particle fluxes at the Antikythira Strait (Eastern Mediterranean)     

Philippe Kerherv  Serge Heussner  Bruno Charrire  Spyros Stavrakakis  Jean-Luc Ferrand  Andr Monaco  Nicole Delsaut 《Progress in Oceanography》1999,44(4):295

For the first time, a 12-month trap experiment was conducted on both sides of the strait between Crete and Antikythira Island (Eastern Mediterranean Sea) from June 1994 to June 1995 as part of the PELAGOS experiment. Analyses of major chemical constituents, including carbohydrates and stable lead isotopes and Scanning Electron Microscope studies were performed on the trap samples. Total mass fluxes varied between 1 and 1273 mg m⁻² d⁻¹. The lowest fluxes observed were in summer and autumn 1994, when stratification of the water column was at its deepest. In general, mass fluxes exhibited very low values throughout this experiment confirming the strong oligotrophy of this area. The mean contents of the major constituents (carbonates, opal, lithogenic fraction) were quite similar during the survey and between traps, with the exception of organic carbon contents, which were highest (7–10%) in summer 1994, i.e. during the period of lowest mass fluxes. During the first 6-month deployment (summer–autumn 1994) there was an important mass flux peak, which was depleted in organic carbon, at the Ionian near-bottom trap. This event coincided with a violent wind episode, which may have caused the resuspension of particles, which were then transported down the steep continental slope on the Ionian side of the strait. A smaller peak in mass flux occurred at the Aegean near-bottom trap, coincident with rainfall. Both these events indicate that environmental factors can control flux variations in an oligotrophic environment. During the second 6-month deployment (winter–spring 1995) there was another important increase in mass fluxes, which occurred at all three traps, although in the Ionian traps mass flux peaks were delayed by one to two sampling intervals. The distance between the two mooring sites gives a rough estimate of a minimum horizontal advection speed of 2 cm s⁻¹ for this particulate transfer from the Aegean to the Ionian area. This estimate is in good agreement with the measured current velocities.  相似文献   

Pre-eruptive physical conditions of El Reventador volcano (Ecuador) inferred from the petrology of the 2002 and 2004–05 eruptions     

Pablo Samaniego  Jean-Philippe Eissen  Jean-Luc Le Pennec  Claude Robin  Minard L. Hall  Patricia Mothes  Deborah Chavrit  Joseph Cotten 《Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research》2008

A petrological study of the eruptive products of El Reventador allowed us to infer the magmatic processes related to the 2002 and 2004–05 eruptions of this andesitic stratovolcano. On November 3, 2002, El Reventador experienced a highly explosive event, which was followed by emplacement of two lava flows in November–December 2002. Silica contents range from 62 to 58 wt.% SiO₂ for the November 3 pyroclastic deposits to 58–56 and 54–53 wt.% SiO₂ for the successive lava flows. In November 2004 eruptive activity resumed supplying four new lava flows (56–54 wt.% SiO₂) between November 2004 and August 2005.  相似文献   

Late Holocene phases of dome growth and Plinian activity at Guagua Pichincha volcano (Ecuador)     

Claude Robin  Pablo Samaniego  Jean-Luc Le Pennec  Patricia Mothes  Johannes van der Plicht 《Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research》2008

Since the eruption which affected Quito in AD 1660, Guagua Pichincha has been considered a hazardous volcano. Based on field studies and twenty ¹⁴C dates, this paper discusses the eruptive activity of this volcano, especially that of the last 2000 years. Three major Plinian eruptions with substantial pumice discharge occurred in the 1st century, the 10th century, and in AD 1660. The ages of organic paleosols and charcoal from block-and-ash flow and fallout deposits indicate that these eruptions occurred near the end of 100 to 200 year-long cycles of discontinuous activity which was comprised of dome growth episodes and minor pumice fallouts. The first cycle took place from ~ AD 1 to 140. The second one developed during the 9th and 10th centuries, lasted 150–180 yr, and included the largest Plinian event, with a VEI of 5. The third, historic cycle, about 200 yr in duration, includes pyroclastic episodes around AD 1450 and AD 1500, explosive activity between AD 1566 and AD 1582, possible precursors of the 1660 eruption in the early decades of the 17th century, and finally the 1660 eruption (VEI 4). A fourth event probably occurred around AD 500, but its authenticity requires confirmation. The Plinian events occurred at the end of these cycles which were separated by repose periods of at least 300 yr. Older volcanic activity of similar type occurred between ~ 4000 and ~ 3000 yr BP.  相似文献   

Causes and consequences of bimodal grain-size distribution of tephra fall deposited during the August 2006 Tungurahua eruption (Ecuador)   总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0  

Julia Eychenne  Jean-Luc Le Pennec  Liliana Troncoso  Mathieu Gouhier  Jean-Marie Nedelec 《Bulletin of Volcanology》2012,74(1):187-205

The violent August 16–17, 2006 Tungurahua eruption in Ecuador witnessed the emplacement of numerous scoria flows and the deposition of a widespread tephra layer west of the volcano. We assess the size of the eruption by determining a bulk tephra volume in the range 42–57 × 10⁶ m³, which supports a Volcanic Explosivity Index 3 event, consistent with calculated column height of 16–18 km above the vent and making it the strongest eruptive phase since the volcano’s magmatic reactivation in 1999. Isopachs west of the volcano are sub-bilobate in shape, while sieve and laser diffraction grain-size analyses of tephra samples reveal strongly bimodal distributions. Based on a new grain-size deconvolution algorithm and extended sampling area, we propose here a mechanism to account for the bimodal grain-size distribution. The deconvolution procedure allows us to identify two particle subpopulations in the deposit with distinct characteristics that indicate dissimilar transport-depositional processes. The log-normal coarse-grained subpopulation is typical of particles transported downwind by the main volcanic plume. The positively skewed, fine-grained subpopulation in the tephra fall layer shares close similarities with the elutriated co-pyroclastic flow ash cloud layers preserved on top of the scoria flow deposits. The area with the higher fine particle content in the tephra layer coincides with the downwind prolongation of the pyroclastic flow deposits. These results indicate that the bimodal distribution of grain size in the Tungurahua fall deposit results from synchronous deposition of lapilli from the main plume and fine ash elutriated from scoria flows emplaced on the western flank of the volcano. Our study also reveals that inappropriate grain-size data processing may produce misleading determination of eruptive type.  相似文献
