Geochronology and Nd-Sr systematics of Lusatian granitoids: significance for the evolution of the Variscan orogen in east-central Europe

A variety of pre-Variscan granitoids and two Variscan monzogranites occurring in the central and western parts of the Lusatian Granodiorite Complex (LGC), Saxonia were dated by the single zircon evaporation method, complemented by whole rock Nd isotopic data and Rb-Sr whole rock and mineral ages. The virtually undeformed pre-Variscan granitoids constitute a genetically related, mostly peraluminous magmatic suite, ranging in composition from two-mica granodiorite, muscovitebearing biotite quartz diorite (tonalite) and granodiorite to biotite granodiorite and monozogranite. ²⁰⁷Pb/²⁰⁶Pb isotopic ratios derived from the evaporation of single zircons separated from 13 samples representing the above rock types display complex spectra which document significant involvement of late Archaean to late Proterozoic continental crust in the generation of the granitoid melts. Mean ²⁰⁷/Pb/²⁰⁶Pb ages for zircons considered to reflect the time of igneous emplacement range between 542 ± 9 and 587 ± 17 Ma, typical of the Cadomian event elsewhere in Europe, whereas zircon xenocrysts yielded ages between 706 ± 13 and 2932 ± Ma. Detrital zircons from greywackes intruded by the granitoids and found as xenoliths in them provided ages between 1136 ± 22 and 2 574 ± Ma. Rb-Sr whole rock data display good to reasonable linear arrays that, with one exception, correspond to the emplacement ages established for the zircons. Two post-tectonic Variscan monzogranites yielded identical ²⁰⁷/Pb/²⁰⁶Pb single zircon ages of 304 ± 14 Ma and record the end of Variscan granitoid activity in the LGC.The variations in Nd and Sr isotopic data of the Cadomian granitoids are consistent with an origin through the melting and mixing of Archean to early Proterozoic crust with variable proportions of mantle-derived, juvenile magmas. Such mixing may have occurred at the base of an active continental margin or in an intraplate setting through plume-related magmatic underplating. The LGC is interpreted here as a Cadomian (Pan-African) terrane distinct from adjacent Variscan and pre-Variscan domains, the origin of which remains obscure and which probably became involved in Palaeozoic terrane accretion late in the Variscan event.  相似文献

Wind-generated internal waves and intertial-period motions     

Prof. Dr. Wolfgang Krauss 《Ocean Dynamics》1972,25(6):241-250

Summary The ocean is subdivided into a homogeneous upper layer (Ekman layer) and a continuously stratified lower layer. Horizontal velocities which in analogy to Fredholm's solution contain inertial oscillations, are generated in the upper layer by the tangential stress of the wind field varying both in space and time. The spatial structure of the wave field corresponds to that o the stress field. If the surface remains at rest (=0), vertical motions result from the horizontal oscillations. At the bottom of the Ekman layer the spatial structure of these vertical motions is proportional to divergence and rotation of the wind stress. Internal waves of the lower layer which primarily have periods approaching the inertial-period are generated by the vertical velocity field at the bottom of the Ekman layer (Ekman suction). Their structure is essentially more complicated than near the surface. Beats are a common phenomenon due to the superposition of internal modes.

Windbedingte interne Wellen und Trägheitswellen

Zusammenfassung Das Meer wird in eine homogene Deckschicht (Ekmansche Reibungsschicht) und eine kontinuierlich geschichtete innere Region unterteilt. Die raum-zeitlich variable tangentiale Schubspannung erzeugt in der Deckschicht Horizontalgeschwindigkeiten, denen analog der Fredholmschen Lösung Trägheitswellen aufgeprägt sind. Ihre räumliche Struktur ist mit der des Schubspannungsfeldes identisch. Wenn keine Stauerscheinungen auftreten (=0), werden durch diese Horizontalbewegungen Vertikalbewegungen bedingt. An der Untergrenze der Ekman-Schicht ist deren räumliche Struktur der Divergenz und Rotation des Schubspannungsfeldes proportional. Das Vertikalgeschwindigkeitsfeld an der Untergrenze der Deckschicht erregt interne Wellen in der unteren Region, die vorwiegend Perioden in der Nähe der Trägheitsperiode aufweisen. Ihre Struktur ist wesentlich komplizierter als in der Deckschicht. Insbesondere zeigen sich Schwebungen.

Ondulations internes dues au vent et mouvements dont la période dépend de l'inertie

Résumé L'Océan se divise en une couche supérieure homogène (couche d'Ekman) et une couche inférieure stratifiée d'une façon continue. Les vélocités horizontales, affectées, par analogie avec la solution de Fredholm, d'oscillations dues à l'inertie, prennent naissance dans la couche supérieure par suite de l'effort tangentiel du champ du vent, variable à la fois dans l'espace et dans le temps. La structure du champ du vent, dans l'espace, correspond à celle du champ de l'effort. Si la surface reste calme (-0) les mouvements verticaux sont dus aux oscillations horizontales. Au fond de la couche d'Ekman, la structure dans l'espace de ces mouvements verticaux est en rapport avec la divergence et la rotation de l'effort du vent. Les ondulations internes de la couche inférieure qui ont, à l'origine, des périodes proches de celle due à l'inertie, sont engendrées par le champ de la vitesse verticale au fond de la couche d'Ekman (succion d'Ekman). Leur structure est beaucoup plus compliquée que près de la surface. Les battements sont un phénomène commun du à la superposition de modes internes.

Coarse-Scale Horizontal Distribution of Phytoplankton in a Semi-Enclosed Coastal Area     

Lydia  Ignatiades 《Marine Ecology》1984,5(3):217-227

Abstract. The horizontal distribution of phytoplankton in relation to changes in the physico-chemical conditions of a eutrophic semi-enclosed embayment is described. Phytoplanktonic populations derived from a station interval of 6 miles (coarse scale variations) were compared by quantitative (standing stock) and qualitative (species composition, diversity, Diatom/Flagellate ratio) criteria. The results showed that quantitative and qualitative parameters differed in their sensitivity and were affected differently by environmental perturbations. Along a horizontal transect with defined variations in nutrient concentrations, changes in standing stock levels were not significant, but differences in species composition existed and caused coefficients of variation between stations for species diversity up to 50% and of the Diatom/Flagellate ratio up to 120%. Furthermore, distributional differences among certain flagellate species (Prorocentrum micans, Prorocentrum balticum) and diatom species (Nitzschia closterium, Chaetoceros curvisetus) were recorded which showed that the flagellate species were distributed more uniformly than the diatoms along a transect with progressive decrease in nutrient concentrations.  相似文献   

Coupling near-surface geomorphology with mangrove community diversity at the estuarine scale: A case study at Dongzhaigang Bay,China

Coastal wetlands are key features of the Earth's surface and are characterized by a diverse array of coupled geomorphological and biological processes. However, the links between the distribution of biodiversity (for example, species and structural diversity) and the formation of coastal geomorphology are not well-understood on a landscape scale most useful to coastal zone managers. This study describes the relationship between select geomorphological and biological mangrove community features (i.e. species composition and functional root type) in a landscape-distributed coastal zone of Dongzhaigang Bay, north-eastern Hainan Island, China. A total of 11 mangrove species and five functional aerial root types were encountered, with the location of species by root types being controlled by the elevation of the soil surface. Plank roots, prop roots and pneumatophores occupied the lowest intertidal elevations, while knee roots and fibrous roots of the mangrove fern, Acrostichum aureum, preferred the highest intertidal elevations. Surface sediment deposition in areas with mangroves was greater than deposition in non-mangrove forest zones, establishing an important biological mechanism for this large-area response because surface erosion/compaction was also more prominent within mangrove roots. Indeed, functional root type influenced the magnitude of deposition, erosion and compaction, with knee roots and pneumatophores being more effective in promoting deposition and preventing surface erosion/compaction than prop roots. These results indicate a potential role for vegetation type (especially functional root type) to influence coastal geomorphological processes at large landscape scales. While soil surface elevation is correlated to the distribution of mangrove species and functional root types, a significant feedback exists between elevation change and the capacity of those root types to influence coastal geomorphological differentiation within sustainable intertidal elevations. An enhanced understanding of geomorphological development, mangrove species distribution and functional root type may improve management to support nature-based solutions that adjust more effectively to sea-level rise through feedbacks.  相似文献   

A chronological and palaeoenvironmental re-evaluation of two loess-palaeosol records in the northern Harz foreland,Germany, based on innovative modelling tools     

Christoph Schmidt  Christian Zeeden  Lydia Krauß  Frank Lehmkuhl  Ludwig Zöller 《Boreas: An International Journal of Quaternary Research》2021,50(3):746-763

The continuing development of analytical methods for investigating sedimentary records calls for iterative re-examination of existing data sets obtained on loess-palaeosol sequences (LPS) as archives of palaeoenvironmental change. Here, we re-investigate two LPS (Hecklingen, Zilly) in the northern Harz foreland, Germany, being of interest due to their proximity to the Scandinavian Ice Sheet (SIS) and the position between oceanic climatic influence further west and continental influence towards the east. First, we established new quartz OSL and polymineral IRSL chronologies. Both methods show concordant ages in the upper part of the Hecklingen profile (~20–40 ka), but in the lower part IRSL underestimates OSL ages by up to ~15 ka for the period 40–60 ka. Interpretations hence refer to the OSL data set. Second, we applied Bayesian age-depth modelling to data sets from Hecklingen to resolve inversions in the original ages, also reducing averaged 1σ uncertainty by ~19% (OSL) and ~12% (IRSL). Modelled chronologies point out phases of increased (MIS 2, early MIS 3) and reduced (middle and late MIS 3) sedimentation, but interpretation of numerical rates is problematic because of intense erosion and slope wash particularly during MIS 3. Finally, previously obtained grain-size data were re-investigated by end member modelling analyses. Three fundamental grain-size distributions (loadings) explain the measured data sets and offer information on intensity and – combined with modelled OSL ages – timing of geomorphic processes. We interpret the loadings to represent (i) primary loess accumulation, (ii) postdepositional pedogenesis and/or input of aeolian fine fractions, and (iii) input of coarse aeolian material and/or slope wash. The applied modelling tools facilitate detailed understanding of site-formation through time, allowing us to correlate a strong peak in mean grain size at ~26–24 ka to the maximum extent of the SIS and increased influence of easterly winds.  相似文献   

Fission‐track dating of a tephra layer related to Poti‐Malal and Seguro drifts in the Río Grande basin,Mendoza, Argentina     

Lydia E. Espizua  Giulio Bigazzi  Pedro J. Iunes  Julio C. Hadler  Ana Maria Osorio 《第四纪科学杂志》2002,17(8):781-788

Two old drift units called Poti‐Malal and Seguro have been differentiated in the Río Grande basin based on relative‐age criteria, stratigraphical relationships, morphology and fission‐track dating. A tephra dated at 0.226 ± 0.025 Ma was deposited on the Poti‐Malal drift and underlies the Seguro outwash, which is inferred to equate with marine oxygen isotope stage 6. The stratigraphical position and age suggest that the tephra post‐dates the Poti‐Malal glaciation and that it is older than the Seguro drift. The Poti‐Malal glaciation must be at least as old as Early–Middle Pleistocene, and the Seguro glaciation is assigned to the penultimate glaciation. The tephra unit may have been deposited during marine oxygen isotope stage 7. Copyright © 2002 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献
