The most conspicuous erosional features associated with constricted bedrock channel reaches and knickpoints are potholes.
The presence and morphology of potholes have been attributed to a number of factors by earlier researchers. Amongst these
factors, the role of substrate rock properties has received very little quantitative attention. The main objective of this
study is to quantitatively evaluate the physical properties of bedrock in order to test the possible influences of rock properties
on the occurrence and morphology of potholes. The area selected for this study is a large scabland area developed by the Indrayani
river at Shelarwadi near Pune. This site is ideally suited for the study since it is featured by wide straths, multiple inner
channels and several hundred potholes. A transect-based quadrat method was used in this study. Within each quadrat, the pothole
dimensions, the joint length, joint direction, the rock mass strength and the distance from active channel were measured.
The analysis reveals a weak correlation between pothole size and rock properties. The distance from the active channel emerges
as the most significant factor, suggesting that the hydraulics of flows is the key factor and substrate characteristics play
only a secondary role. 相似文献

Granulite-facies rocks occurring north-east of the Chilka Lake anothosite (Balugan Massif) show a complex metamorphic and
deformation history. The M1–D1 stage is identified only through microscopic study by the presence of S1 internal foliation shown by the M1 assemblage sillimanite–quartz–plagioclase–biotite within garnet porphyroblasts of the aluminous granulites and this fabric
is obliterated in outcrop to map-scale by subsequent deformations. S2 fabric was developed at peak metamorphic condition (M2–D2) and is shown by gneissic banding present in all lithological units. S3 fabric was developed due to D3 deformation and it is tectonically transposed parallel to S2 regionally except at the hinge zone of the F3 folds. The transposed S2/S3 fabric is the regional characteristic structure of the area. The D4 event produced open upright F4 folds, but was weak enough to develop any penetrative foliation in the rocks except few spaced cleavages that developed in
the quartzite/garnet–sillimanite gneiss. Petrological data suggest that the M4–D4 stage actually witnessed reactivation of the lower crust by late distinct tectonothermal event. Presence of transposed S2/S3 fabric within the anorthosite arguably suggests that the pluton was emplaced before or during the M3–D3 event. Field-based large-scale structural analyses and microfabric analyses of the granulites reveal that this terrain has
been evolved through superposed folding events with two broadly perpendicular compression directions without any conclusive
evidence for transpressional tectonics as argued by earlier workers. Tectonothermal history of these granulites spanning in
Neoproterozoic time period is dominated by compressional tectonics with associated metamorphism at deep crust. 相似文献

Using the experimental data on Fe–Mg exchange between orthopyroxene and biotite of Fonarev & Konilov (1986), an orthopyroxene–biotite geothermometer is developed. The thermometer is corrected for mixing of Ti and Al in octahedral sites in biotite and also for non-ideal mixing of Fe and Mg in orthopyroxene. The thermometer is applied to several amphibolite–granulite transition facies and granulite facies rocks and also to mantle xenoliths. It yields consistent results in rocks of widely varying bulk composition, and highly magnesian mantle xenoliths. This thermometer removes the difficulty of estimating temperature in garnet-free rocks in high-grade terrains and also provides independent estimates of temperature in garnet-bearing assemblages. 相似文献

Petrology of Granulites from Anakapalle--Evidence for Proterozoic Decompression in the Eastern Ghats, India 总被引：4，自引：0，他引：4

The granulite complex at Anakapalle, which was metamorphosedat 1000 Ma, comprises orthopyroxene granulites, leptynite, khondalite,mafic granulites, calc-silicate rock, spinel granulites, andtwo types of sapphirine granulites—one quartz-bearingand migmatitic and the other devoid of quartz and massive. Reactiontextures in conjunction with mineral-chemical data suggest severalcontinuous and discontinuous equilibria in these rocks. In orthopyroxenegranulites, dehydration-melting of biotite in the presence ofquartz occurred according to the reaction biotite+quartz= garnet (Py37)+K-feldspar+orthopyroxene + liquid. Later, this garnet broke down by the reaction garnet (Py37)+quartz= orthopyroxene + plagioclase. Subsequently, coronal garnet (Py30) and quartz were producedby the same reaction but proceeding in the opposite direction.In spinel granulites, garnet (Py42) and sillimanite were producedby the breakdown of spinel in the presence of quartz. In thetwo types of sapphirine granulites, garnet with variable pyropecontent broke down according to the reaction garnet = sapphirine + sillimanite + orthopyroxene. The highest pyrope content (59 mol %) was noted in garnets fromquartz-free sapphirine granulites compared with the quartz-bearingone (53 mol % pyrope). The calculated positions of the mineralreactions and diserete P-T points obtained by thermobarometrydefine a retrograde P-T trajectory during which a steep decompressionof 1.5 kbar from P-Tmax of 8 kbar and 900C was followed bynear-isobaric cooling of 300C. During this decompression, garnetwith variable pyrope contents in different rocks broke downon intersection with various divariant equilibria. Near-isobariccooling resulted in the formation of coronal garnet around second-generationorthopyroxene and plagioclase replacing earlier porphyroblasticgarnet in orthopyroxene granulites. It has been argued thatthe deduced P-T trajectory originated in an extensional regimeinvolving either a crust of near-normal thickness of a slightlyoverthickened crust owing to magmatic underaccretion. 相似文献

Global estimates of the elastic thickness (Te) of the structure of passive continental margins show wide and varying results
owing to the use of different methodologies. Earlier estimates of the elastic thickness of the North Atlantic passive continental
margins that used flexural modelling yielded a Te value of ~20–100 km. Here, we compare these estimates with the Te value
obtained using orthonormalized Hermite multitaper recovered isostatic coherence functions. We discuss how Te is correlated
with heat flow distribution and depth of necking. The E–W segment in the southern study region comprising Nova Scotia and
the Southern Grand Banks show low Te values, while the zones comprising the NE–SW zones, viz., Western Greenland, Labrador,
Orphan Basin and the Northern Grand Bank show comparatively high Te values. As expected, Te broadly reflects the depth of
the 200–400°C isotherm below the weak surface sediment layer at the time of loading, and at the margins most of the loading
occurred during rifting. We infer that these low Te measurements indicate Te frozen into the lithosphere. This could be due
to the passive nature of the margin when the loads were emplaced during the continental break-up process at high temperature
gradients. 相似文献

The area of investigation at and around Mashak Pahar, Bankura district, West Bengal, India comprises a number of rock types namely: granite gneiss, migmatized quartz tourmaline gneiss, quartz pebble conglomerate, ferruginous quartzite, quartz tourmaline veins (as veins) and graphite schists. Interestingly, the study area lies in the region extending South Purulia Shear Zone (～Tamar–Porapahar Shear Zone) which marks the boundary between two contrasting tectonic blocks of eastern India, namely, the Chhotanagpur Gneissic Terrane (CGC) to the north and Singhbhum Group of rocks to the south. The rocks of the study area are poly-phasedly deformed by three phases of folding, namely, F1, F2 and F3. All the tourmalines are classified to be of ‘Alkali Group’. Chemistry of tourmalines from migmatized quartz tourmaline gneiss and those from quartz tourmaline veins are in conformity with their relation to (earthquake induced) shear system evolution in this terrain. In general, the compositional evolution of tourmaline during prograde metamorphism (～400°–730°C) has been supported by both petrographic and chemical evidences. Assessment of mineral–chemical data of constituent tourmaline grains clearly suggests compositional variations across zonal boundaries within tourmaline that was controlled by changing metamorphic milieu in this terrane. Field and petrographic evidences clearly indicate activation of earlier and later shears in this region accompanied by infiltration of boron and formation of zoned tourmaline crystals. 相似文献

Abstract— The only well‐known terrestrial analogue of impact craters in basaltic crusts of the rocky planets is the Lonar crater, India. For the first time, evidence of the impactor that formed the crater has been identified within the impact spherules, which are ?0.3 to 1 mm in size and of different aerodynamic shapes including spheres, teardrops, cylinders, dumbbells and spindles. They were found in ejecta on the rim of the crater. The spherules have high magnetic susceptibility (from 0.31 to 0.02 SI‐mass) and natural remanent magnetization (NRM) intensity. Both NRM and saturation isothermal remanent magnetization (SIRM) intensity are ?2 Am2/Kg. Demagnetization response by the NRM suggests a complicated history of remanence acquisition. The spherules show schlieren structure described by chains of tiny dendritic and octahedral‐shaped magnetite crystals indicating their quenching from liquid droplets. Microprobe analyses show that, relative to the target basalt compositions, the spherules have relatively high average Fe2O3 (by ?1.5 wt%), MgO (?1 wt%), Mn (?200 ppm), Cr (?200 ppm), Co (?50 ppm), Ni (?1000 ppm) and Zn (?70 ppm), and low Na2O (?1 wt%) and P2O5 (?0.2 wt%). Very high Ni contents, up to 14 times the average content of Lonar basalt, require the presence of a meteoritic component in these spherules. We interpret the high Ni, Cr, and Co abundances in these spherules to indicate that the impactor of the Lonar crater was a chondrite, which is present in abundances of 12 to 20 percent by weight in these impact spherules. Relatively high Zn yet low Na2O and P2O5 contents of these spherules indicate exchange of volatiles between the quenching spherule droplets and the impact plume. 相似文献

Sapphirine granulite occurring as lenses in charnockite at Anantagiri,Eastern Ghat, India, displays an array of minerals which developedunder different P-T-X conditions. Reaction textures in conjunctionwith mineral chemical data attest to several Fe-Mg continuousreactions, such as
- spinel+rutile+quartz+MgFe–1=sapphirine+ilmenite
- cordierite=sapphirine+quartz+MgFe–1
- sapphirine+quartz=orthopyroxene+sillimanite+MgFe–1
- orthopyroxene+sapphirine+quartz=garnet+MgFe–1
- orthopyroxene+sillimanite=garnet+quartz+MgFe–1
- orthopyroxene+sillimanite+quartz+MgFe–1=cordierite.
