Coupling an ocean wave model to an atmospheric general circulation model     

Susanne L Weber  Hans von Storch  Pedro Viterbo  Liana Zambresky 《Climate Dynamics》1993,9(2):63-69

A coupled model, consisting of an ocean wave model and an atmospheric general circulation model (AGCM), is integrated under permanent July conditions. The wave model is forced by the AGCM wind stress, whereas the wind waves modify the AGCM surface fluxes of momentum, sensible and latent heat. We investigate the following aspects of the coupled model: how realistic are the wave fields, how strong is the coupling, and how sensitive is the atmospheric circulation to the spatially and temporally varying wave field. The wave climatology of the coupled model compares favorably with observational data. The interaction between the two models is largest (although weak) in the storm track in the Southern Hemisphere. Young windsea, which is associated with enhanced surface fluxes is generated mostly in the equatorward frontal area of an individual cyclone. However, the enhancement of the surface fluxes is too small to significantly modify the climatological mean atmospheric circulation.This paper was presented at the Second International Conference on Modelling of Global Climate Variability, held in Hamburg 7–11 September 1992 under the auspices of the Max Planck Institute for Meteorology.

Nd-, Sr-, O-isotopic and chemical evidence for a two-stage contamination history of mantle magma in the Central-Alpine Bergell intrusion     

Friedhelm von Blanckenburg  Gretchen Früh-Green  Karlheinz Diethelm  Peter Stille 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1992,110(1):33-45

Two different contamination processes have been identified as having been operative in the genesis of a plutonic suite: initial contamination of a mantle source, and subsequent crustal contamination of uprising partial melts from the mantle. These processes are indicated by a detailed analyses of Nd, Sr, and oxygen isotopes together with major-and trace-elements of the 32–30 Ma calc-alkaline Bergell intrusion. This intrusion is located at the suture of the Alpine continental collision zone and contains rock types capable of discriminating between mantle and intracrustal processes. A range from basaltic-andesitic dykes in the surrounding country rocks, cumulitic hornblendites, gabbros, tonalite, granodiorite and lamprophyres, to pegmatites and aplites, is exposed in this single intrusion. The results of REE modelling and isotopic compositions of the basic members suggest that the cumulates were fractionated from a picrobasaltic liquid originating by partial melting of enriched subcontinental mantle (_Nd=+4). Increases in ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr (0.7055) and ¹⁸O(+6.7) in these samples relative to the mantle array and compositions of other Periadriatic intrusions are most likely the result of an initial contamination of the mantle source by dehydration or partial melting of altered subducted oceanic crust. Slight differentiation of such a picrobasaltic liquid produced the basaltic-andesitic dykes. Simultaneous fractional crystallization and contamination of the uprising magma by continental crust produced crustal isotopic signatures which increase with acidity to values of (_Nd=-7.6), ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr=0.716 and ¹⁸O=+10. The crustal imprint and LREE enrichment in the dominating tonalite increase with decreasing crystallization depth which indicates that the tonalites were emplaced in several distinct batches with different degrees of contamination. Shoshonitic lamprophyres, which intruded into the partly solidified granodiorite, were generated in a deep, strongly contaminated mantle source. The posttectonic 26 Ma Novate leucogranite is not cogenetic with the main Bergell body, but rather formed from a predominantly crustal source. If the described features are indeed due to mantle source contamination processes, which are well known for volcanic arcs, it must be concluded that these may also play a significant role in the genesis of calcalkaline plutonic suites.  相似文献   

Structural and metamorphic evolution of the Sierras Australes (Buenos Aires Province/Argentina)     

W. von Gosen  W. Buggisch  L. V. Dimieri 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1990,79(3):797-821

The Precambrian Basement Complex rocks as well as the Early to Late Palaeozoic cover sediments of the Sierras Australes were affected by one dominant folding and shearing event verging northeastward during Middle to Late Permian times. Strain estimates point to a minimal flattening and lateral shortening of the sedimentary cover sequence of c.20% and c.24% respectively. Continuing rotational deformation within first and second shear and thrust zones is documented by second and third folding and shearing. To the SW the fold belt changes into a fold and thrust belt where imbrication involves the basement. The deformational events were accompanied and outlasted by anchizonal to greenschist facies metamorphism proven by illite crystallinity and quartz deformation and recrystallization data. A temperature increase from ENE to WSW and also from N to S allowed a more ductile deformation of the rock sequence due to different deformation mechanisms operating. The folding and thrusting events were followed by strike-slip shearing on subvertical shear planes and shear zones under an overall sinistral transpressive regime. A model for the tectonic evolution of the Sierras Australes is proposed and some implications for its setting in the Gondwana reconstruction are given.

Zusammenfassung Das präkambrische Basement sowie die alt- und jungpaläozoischen Deckschichten der Sierras Australes wurden während des Mittl. bis Ob. Perm von einer NE vergenten Faltung und Scherung erfaßt. Strain-Abschätzungen deuten auf eine minimale Plättung und laterale Verkürzung der Sedimentfolge von ca. 20% bzw. 24%. Die fortlaufende relationale Deformation in den ersten und zweiten Scher- und Überschiebungszonen ist durch zweite und dritte Faltung mit Scherung dokumentiert. Der Sierras Australes-Faltengürtel geht nach SW in einen Falten-Überschiebungsgürtel über, dessen nach NE gerichtete Imbrikationen das Basement einbeziehen. Daten der Illit-Kristallinität und Quarz-Deformation/-Rekristallisation zeigen, daß die Deformationen von anchizonaler bis seicht-grünschieferfazieller Metamorphose begleitet und überdauert wurden. Mit der von ENE nach WSW bzw. N nach S zunehmenden Temperierung setzten verschiedene Deformationsmechanismen ein. Sie ermöglichten eine zunehmend duktile Verformung der Gesteinsfolgen. Auf die Faltungen und Auf-/Überschiebungen folgten Lateralverschiebungen an subvertikalen Scherflächen und -zonen unter einem sinistralen transpressiven Regime. Für die tektonische Entwicklung der Sierras Australes wird ein Modell vorgeschlagen, und die Folgerungen für die Stellung in der Gondwana-Rekonstruktion werden angeführt.

Résumé Les roches du socle précambrien ainsi que la couverture sédimentaire éo- à tardi-paléozoïque des Sierras Australes ont été affectées, au cours du Permien moyen à supérieur, d'un plissement et d'un cisaillement à vergence nord-est. Les déformations sont estimées à au moins 20% d'aplatissement et 24% de raccourcissement latéral. Dans la première et la deuxième zone de cisaillement et de charriage, la déformation rotationnelle continue s'exprime par les deuxième et troisième plissements. Vers le SW la ceinture plissée passe à une ceinture plissée et charriée qui comporte des imbrications du socle. Les déformations ont été accompagnées et suivies d'un métamorphisme de faciès d'anchizone à «schistes verts», ainsi qu'en attestent la cristallinité de l'illite et la déformation et recristallisation du quartz. L'accroissement de la température de l'ENE vers l'WSW ainsi que du N vers le S a donné lieu à des mécanismes de déformation de caractère de plus en plus ductile. La phase de plissement et de charriage a été suivie par un régime de cisaillements décrochants sénestres le long de plans et de shear-zones subverticaux. Les auteurs proposent un modèle de l'évolution tectonique des Sierras Australes et discutent de son insertion dans la reconstruction du Gondwana.

Oil-generation kinetics for organic facies with Type-II and -IIS kerogen in the Menilite Shales of the Polish Carpathians     

M.D. Lewan  M.J. Kotarba  D. Wi?c?aw 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》2006,70(13):3351-3368

The Menilite Shales (Oligocene) of the Polish Carpathians are the source of low-sulfur oils in the thrust belt and some high-sulfur oils in the Carpathian Foredeep. These oil occurrences indicate that the high-sulfur oils in the Foredeep were generated and expelled before major thrusting and the low-sulfur oils in the thrust belt were generated and expelled during or after major thrusting. Two distinct organic facies have been observed in the Menilite Shales. One organic facies has a high clastic sediment input and contains Type-II kerogen. The other organic facies has a lower clastic sediment input and contains Type-IIS kerogen. Representative samples of both organic facies were used to determine kinetic parameters for immiscible oil generation by isothermal hydrous pyrolysis and S₂ generation by non-isothermal open-system pyrolysis. The derived kinetic parameters showed that timing of S₂ generation was not as different between the Type-IIS and -II kerogen based on open-system pyrolysis as compared with immiscible oil generation based on hydrous pyrolysis. Applying these kinetic parameters to a burial history in the Skole unit showed that some expelled oil would have been generated from the organic facies with Type-IIS kerogen before major thrusting with the hydrous-pyrolysis kinetic parameters but not with the open-system pyrolysis kinetic parameters. The inability of open-system pyrolysis to determine earlier petroleum generation from Type-IIS kerogen is attributed to the large polar-rich bitumen component in S₂ generation, rapid loss of sulfur free-radical initiators in the open system, and diminished radical selectivity and rate constant differences at higher temperatures. Hydrous-pyrolysis kinetic parameters are determined in the presence of water at lower temperatures in a closed system, which allows differentiation of bitumen and oil generation, interaction of free-radical initiators, greater radical selectivity, and more distinguishable rate constants as would occur during natural maturation. Kinetic parameters derived from hydrous pyrolysis show good correlations with one another (compensation effect) and kerogen organic-sulfur contents. These correlations allow for indirect determination of hydrous-pyrolysis kinetic parameters on the basis of the organic-sulfur mole fraction of an immature Type-II or -IIS kerogen.  相似文献   

Phosphorus retention in calcareous soils and the effect of organic matter on its mobility   总被引：7，自引：0，他引：7  

Ray von Wandruszka 《Geochemical transactions》2006,7(1):6-8

A survey of the interactions between phosphorus (P) species and the components of calcareous soils shows that both surface reactions and precipitation take place, especially in the presence of calcite and limestone. The principal products of these reactions are dicalcium phosphate and octacalcium phosphate, which may interconvert after formation. The role of calcium carbonate in P retention by calcareous soils is, however, significant only at relatively high P concentrations – non-carbonate clays play a more important part at lower concentrations. In the presence of iron oxide particles, occlusion of P frequently occurs in these bodies, especially with forms of the element that are pedogenic in origin. Progressive mineralization and immobilization, often biological in nature, are generally observed when P is added as a fertilizer.  相似文献   

T -distributed Random Fields: A Parametric Model for Heavy-tailedWell-log Data1     

Jo R?islien  Henning Omre 《Mathematical Geology》2006,38(7):821-849

Histograms of observations from spatial phenomena are often found to be more heavy-tailed than Gaussian distributions, which makes the Gaussian random field model unsuited. A T-distributed random field model with heavy-tailed marginal probability density functions is defined. The model is a generalization of the familiar Student-T distribution, and it may be given a Bayesian interpretation. The increased variability appears cross-realizations, contrary to in-realizations, since all realizations are Gaussian-like with varying variance between realizations. The T-distributed random field model is analytically tractable and the conditional model is developed, which provides algorithms for conditional simulation and prediction, so-called T-kriging. The model compares favourably with most previously defined random field models. The Gaussian random field model appears as a special, limiting case of the T-distributed random field model. The model is particularly useful whenever multiple, sparsely sampled realizations of the random field are available, and is clearly favourable to the Gaussian model in this case. The properties of the T-distributed random field model is demonstrated on well log observations from the Gullfaks field in the North Sea. The predictions correspond to traditional kriging predictions, while the associated prediction variances are more representative, as they are layer specific and include uncertainty caused by using variance estimates.  相似文献   

Results from a Multi-disciplinary Sedimentary Pilot Study of Tectonic Lake Iznik (NW Turkey) – Geochemistry and Paleolimnology of the Recent Past     

Sven O. Franz  Lorenz Schwark  Cathrin Brüchmann  Burkhard Scharf  Ralf Klingel  Jon D. Van Alstine  Namık Çagatay  Umut B. Ülgen 《Journal of Paleolimnology》2006,35(4):715-736

A limnogeological reconnaissance study was carried out on Lake Iznik, located in the southeast of the Marmara region of Turkey, involving a seismic survey and collection of short sediment cores. This lake is located on the middle branch of the North Anatolian Fault Zone (NAFZ), a transform plate boundary between the Eurasian and Anatolian Plates. It is, therefore, tectonically active and offers an opportunity to investigate the interplay of sedimentary and seismo-tectonic processes, as well as climate change and human impact in the region. Short cores of the three sub-basins, maximum length of 35.5 cm, recovered non-laminated, blackish clays and silts with varying amounts of biogenic and minerogenic (allochthonous, autochthonous) material, which documented almost the last 80 years of deposition and environmental history. High sedimentation rates in the deeper core sections are accompanied by changes in land use (conversion of woodland to farmland) in the northern areas of Lake Iznik, which caused the deposition of more weathered material (high K/Na ratios) and higher contents of Mn in the lake. A tendency towards eutrophic conditions within the last 20 years is indicated by high nutrient content (N, TOC, P), decreasing C/N-ratios, and characteristic diatom and cladoceran associations. Also increased pollution is revealed by higher Pb, Cu, and Zn contents and increased supply of human and animal faeces (high coprostanol content) during the last two decades. But simultaneous lower sedimentation rates towards the core tops complicate the reconstruction of recent and past eutrophication and pollution states of Lake Iznik. This requires an extension of the pilot study and deeper sediment cores, to recover non-anthropogenic influenced sediment levels.  相似文献

Observations And Modelling Of The On-Ice And Off-Ice Air Flow Over The Northern Baltic Sea     

Timo Vihma  Burghard Brümmer 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》2002,103(1):1-27

Two cases of on-ice and off-ice air flow characterizing the opposite weather situations over the ice-edge zone in the northern Baltic Sea are analysed on the basis of aircraft observations, and modelled using atwo-dimensional mesoscale model. The stable boundary layer (SBL) during theon-ice flow exhibited little thermal modification, but a low-level jet (LLJ) was generated at the 250-m high top of the SBL. In the model, the LLJ was associated with inertial oscillations in space, while the baroclinicity explained the shape of the wind profile well above the SBL. Although the observed LLJ was most pronounced over the ice, the modelling suggests that it was not generated by the ice edge but by the coastline some 400 km upwind of the ice edge, where a much more drastic change in the thermal stratification and surface roughness took place. The generation, maintenance, and strength of the LLJ were very sensitive to the parameterization of turbulent mixing in the SBL. In the case of the off-ice flow, the modification of the air mass and the development of a convective boundary layer (CBL) both over the ice and open sea were reasonably well modelled. Sensitivity runs suggested that it was essential to take into account the effects of subgrid-scale leads, a forest in the archipelago (which was crossed by the air flow), and water vapour condensationinto ice crystals. The heat flux from leads was particularly important for the heatbudget of the CBL, and the observed growth of the CBL was partly due to theeffective mixing over the rough and relatively warm forest.  相似文献
