Raman spectra of MgSiO3·10% Al2O3-perovskite at various pressures and temperatures     

Lin-gun Liu  T. P. Mernagh  T. Irifune 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1995,22(8):511-516

Variations of Raman spectra of MgSiO₃·10% Al₂O₃-perovskite were investigated up to about 270 kbar at room temperature and in the range 108–425 °K at atmospheric pressure. Like MgSiO₃-perovskite, the Raman frequencies of MgSiO₃·10% Al₂O₃-perovskite increase nonlinearly with increasing pressure and decrease linearly with increasing temperature within the experimental uncertainties and the range investigated. A comparison of these data with those of MgSiO₃-perovskite suggests that MgSiO₃·10% Al₂O₃-perovskite is slightly more compressible than MgSiO₃-perovskite, and that the volume thermal expansion for MgSiO₃·10% Al₂O₃-perovskite is also slightly greater than that for MgSiO₃-perovskite.  相似文献

土壤含水量和可溶解的土壤盐分浓度的测定, 对了解土壤盐分的分布及移动具有重要的意义. 在内蒙古黄河流域灌溉玉米田的一个野外实验中, 利用TDR对土壤含水量及土壤溶液电导率进行了同时连续测量. 结果表明: 在降雨量较少的时期内, 当土壤水分从地下含水层向地表面移动的同时, 地下水中含有的盐分也通过作物根区层向地表移动;当灌溉或有强降雨存在时, 土壤表面蓄积的盐分在未能完全溶解于灌溉水及雨水之前, 大量的灌溉水及降雨通过土壤内的大空隙快速渗入土壤下层;余下的水分在完全溶解了土壤表面的盐分之后, 缓慢通过土壤小空隙下渗.  相似文献   

Relationships between variations of the land–ocean–atmosphere system of northeastern Asia and northwestern North America     

John E. Walsh  Hotaek Park  William L. Chapman  Tetsuo Ohata 《Polar Science》2013,7(2):188-203

This study is a broad-scale synthesis of information on climate changes in two Arctic terrestrial regions, eastern Siberia and the Alaska–Yukon area of North America. Over the past 60 years (1951–2010), the trends of temperature and precipitation in the two regions are broadly similar in their seasonality. However, atmospheric advection influences the two regions differently during winter. The differential advective effects are much weaker in the other seasons. The Pacific Decadal Oscillation is the strongest correlator with interannual variability in the two regions, followed by the Arctic Oscillation and the El Niño/Southern Oscillation.Projected changes by the late 21st Century are qualitatively similar to the changes that have been ongoing over the past 60 years, although the rate of change increases modestly under mid-range forcing scenarios (e.g., the A1B scenario). The greatest warming is projected to occur farther north over the Arctic Ocean in response to sea ice loss. Precipitation is projected to increase by all models, although increases in evapotranspiration preclude conclusions about trends toward wetter or drier land surface conditions. A notable feature of the future climate simulations is a strong maximum of pressure decreases in the Bering Sea region, implying further advective changes.  相似文献   

Dilatancy of granular materials in a strain space multiple mechanism model     

Susumu Iai  Tetsuo Tobita  Osamu Ozutsumi  Kyohei Ueda 《国际地质力学数值与分析法杂志》2011,35(3):360-392

A granular material consists of an assemblage of particles with contacts newly formed or disappeared, changing the micromechanical structures during macroscopic deformation. These structures are idealized through a strain space multiple mechanism model as a twofold structure consisting of a multitude of virtual two‐dimensional mechanisms, each of which consists of a multitude of virtual simple shear mechanisms of one‐dimensional nature. In particular, a second‐order fabric tensor describes direct macroscopic stress–strain relationship, and a fourth‐order fabric tensor describes incremental relationship. In this framework of modeling, the mechanism of interlocking defined as the energy less component of macroscopic strain provides an appropriate bridge between micromechanical and macroscopic dilative component of dilatancy. Another bridge for contractive component of dilatancy is provided through an obvious hypothesis on micromechanical counterparts being associated with virtual simple shear strain. It is also postulated that the dilatancy along the stress path beyond a line slightly above the phase transformation line is only due to the mechanism of interlocking and increment in dilatancy due to this interlocking eventually vanishing for a large shear strain. These classic postulates form the basis for formulating the dilatancy in the strain space multiple mechanism model. The performance of the proposed model is demonstrated through simulation of undrained behavior of sand under monotonic and cyclic loading. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

A diurnal resonance in the ocean tide and in the Earth's load response due to the resonant free 'core nutation'   总被引：3，自引：0，他引：3  

John M. Wahr  Tetsuo Sasao† 《Geophysical Journal International》1981,64(3):747-765

Summary. The luni-solar forced nutations and body tide are believed to be resonant at frequencies near (1 + 1/460) cycle sidereal day⁻¹ as seen from the rotating Earth. This resonance is due to the Earth's rotating, elliptical fluid core. We show here that tides in the open ocean and the Earth's response to those tides must also be resonant at (1 + 1/460) cycle day⁻¹. We examine these resonant oceanic effects on the Earth's nutational motion and on the body tide. Effects on the forced nutations might be as large as 0.002 arcsec at 18.6 yr. The effects on the observed resonance in the body tide are more important. For tidal gravity, for example, the difference between K ₁ and 0 ¹ which is usually used to determine the resonance, can be perturbed by 30 per cent or more due to the oceanic resonance effects.  相似文献   

Kurosegawa zone and its bearing on the development of the Japanese Islands     

Shigenori Maruyama  Shohei Banno  Tetsuo Matsuda  Takashi Nakajima 《Tectonophysics》1984,110(1-2)

The Kurosegawa zone in southwest Japan is a 600 km long serpentinite mélange in the Chichibu terrains. It runs generally E-W but is slightly oblique to the subparallel arrangement of the Ryoke, Sanbagawa and Chichibu belts of Southwest Japan. A variety of geological units occurs in the Kurosegawa zone:

1. (1) granodiorite, gneiss and amphibolite of ca. 400 Ma,

2. (2) Siluro-Devonian formations,

3. (3) Upper Carboniferous to Jurassic formations,

4. (4) Upper Jurassic to Lower Cretaceous formations,

5. (5) serpentinite and

6. (6) low- to medium-grade metamorphic rocks of various baric types (ages, 220, 320, 360 and 420 Ma by K-Ar).

The most widespread is a high-pressure intermediate group of metamorphic rocks. Serpentinite is emplaced along the faults between and within the constituent units.Rocks of the Kurosegawa zone represent a mature orogenic belt along a continental margin or an island arc. Its original site as constrained by paleomagnetism was near the equatorial area. Here, 400 Ma old paired metamorphism and related magmatism took place. The island arc or microcontinent migrated northward to collide with the Eurasia plate during Late Jurassic, thus consuming the intervening ocean.  相似文献   

Stability field of knorringite Mg₃Cr₂Si₃O₁₂ at high pressure and its implication to the occurrence of Cr-rich pyrope in the upper mantle     

Tetsuo Irifune  Eiji Ohtani  Mineo Kumazawa 《Physics of the Earth and Planetary Interiors》1982,27(4):263-272

The stability field of knorringite (Mg₃Cr₂Si₃O₁₂) is studied experimentally. Knorringite is stable at pressures above 10.5 GPa at 1200°C and 11.8 GPa at 1400°C. Below these pressures, knorringite decomposes to enstatite + eskolaite. A phase diagram of the pyrope-knorringite system is described based on the available experimental data. The solubility of the knorringite molecule in pyrope is essentially dependent only on pressure, and the Cr/Cr+Al value of garnet is considered to be an indicator of the minimum pressure of equilibration. Consideration of the genesis of Cr-rich pyrope and other peridotitic inclusions in diamonds indicates that the fractionation process should have taken place, at least at depths to ca. 240 km, to give rise to the Cr-rich complement of Cr-poor upper mantle materials such as undepleted lherzolite. The knorringite-rich peridotitic suite in diamond will be identified with this complement, which may be the material constituting the deep upper mantle.  相似文献   

A model tank test using artificial ground freezing — with an in-ground lng storage tank in view     

Tetsuo Akiyama  Mizuhito Iguro   《Engineering Geology》1981,18(1-4):395-408

As a clean form of energy able to replace oil, the demand for LNG (Liquefied Natural Gas) has been increasing. LNG must be stored in a cryogenic temperature of —162°C. The storage tanks now existing throughout the world can be divided into above-ground and inground types. In the Tokyo area, there are now 22 in-ground LNG storage tanks, either in operation or under construction, which are constructed with primary consideration given to safety and earthquake-proof design because of the circumstances around the LNG terminals.

In the feasibility study of a very large-scale, in-ground LNG storage tank, comparative preliminary studies were made of various construction methods. Among them, the method using artificial ground freezing was proposed, in which it was planned to utilize the frozen soil as the means of ground water control and the temporary retaining wall. To confirm the feasibility of the design, a model tank test was conducted by freezing the actual tank yard. The yard ground, composed of sand and silt layers, was artificially frozen 10 m in diameter and 50 m in depth; in the frozen soil a shaft of 4 m in diameter was sunk to a depth 26 m below the ground level for various tests and measurements. The purpose of the test was mainly to confirm the construction method and to examine the agreement between theory and practice.

Although this construction method has not been adopted in the actual tank work, the feasibility of the method itself has been confirmed as a result of the test. In this paper, the outline and major results of the test and analysis are described.  相似文献   

Compressibility of calcium ferrite-type MgAl2O4     

Mina Yutani  Takehiko Yagi  Hitoshi Yusa  Tetsuo Irifune 《Physics and Chemistry of Minerals》1997,24(5):340-344

 In situ X-ray diffraction experiments of calcium ferrite-type MgAl₂O₄ have been carried out using a diamond anvil cell combined with synchrotron radiation and an imaging plate X-ray detector under hydrostatic pressures up to 9 GPa. The observed unit-cell volumes at various pressures were fitted to the Birch-Murnaghan equation of state, yielding a bulk modulus of K _{T 0}= 241(3) GPa when K′ _{T 0}=4 is assumed. This relatively large bulk modulus of calcium ferrite-type MgAl₂O₄ is consistent with that expected from the systematic relation between bulk modulus and molar volume for the most compounds possessing fcc oxygen packing.

Influence of submarine fumaroles on the distribution of mercury in the sediment of Kagoshima Bay,Japan

To estimate the influence of mercury emitted from submarine fumaroles, the horizontal and vertical distribution of mercury in sediment of Kagoshima Bay was studied. The fumaroles are located in the northern bay head area, and the sediment samples had been taken from 52 points throughout the bay with a gravity core sampler. The core samples obtained were cut at a thickness of 1–2 cm and used for measurements. The total concentration of mercury in surface sediment in the northern and central areas of the bay was 51–679 μg kg^− 1 (average 199 μg kg^− 1, n = 22) and 23–100 μg kg^− 1 (average 55 μg kg^− 1, n = 30), respectively. The highest value was obtained in the vicinity of the fumaroles. The mercury concentration in sediment near the fumaroles varied with depth, which may reflect the variation in fumarolic activity. A successive extraction method was applied to the speciation of mercury in the sediment. The results showed that sediment taken in the vicinity of submarine fumaroles contained a higher percentage of mercury bound with organic matter.  相似文献
