Spectral-compositional variations in the constituent minerals of mafic and ultramafic assemblages and remote sensing implications     

Edward A. Cloutis  Michael J. Gaffey 《Earth, Moon, and Planets》1991,53(1):11-53

The 0.3–2.6 m reflectance spectra of most mafic and ultramafic assemblages can best be interpreted by considering the spectra as being composed of mafic silicate spectra modified by the presence of opaques, such as ilmenite or magnetite, and plagioclase feldspar. The systematic spectral-compositional relationships for olivine, orthopyroxene, and clinopyroxene have been examined and it has been determined that absorption band wavelength positions are correlated with ferrous iron content. Binary mafic silicate mixtures are generally less well understood, but certain spectral features such as reflectance maxima and minima wavelength positions and absorption band areas can be used to quantify or at least constrain end member abundances and compositions. The addition of opaques to a mafic silicate assemblage lowers overall reflectance and band depths. This differs from the effects of increasing grain size which are to lower overall reflectance but increase band depths. Plagioclase is relatively transparent compared to mafic silicates and must be present in appreciable amounts (tens of percent) to be spectrally detectable. The reflectance spectra of most mafic and ultramafic assemblages are dominated by mafic silicate absorption features and analysis of their spectra on this basis allows constraints to be placed on properties such as end member abundances and compositions.  相似文献

Structure of the marine boundary layer over north western Indian Ocean during 1983 summer monsoon     

M. R. Ramesh Kumar  Y. Sadhuram  G. S. Michael  L. V. Gangadhara Rao 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》1990,52(1-2):177-191

The spatial variability of the structure of the lower troposphere over the northwestern Indian Ocean for the period 12th July to 2nd September, 1983 has been studied using upper air data collected during the first scientific cruise of ORV Sagar Kanya.An analysis of thermodynamic structure and kinematics of the marine boundary layer for different zonal and meridional sections revealed the following features: (a) Temperature and humidity inversions were generally absent over the study area except over a few locations in the western region; (b) Large-scale subsidence was found over the central equatorial Indian Ocean; (c) The convective activity over the western Indian Ocean was found to be moderately suppressed as compared to the eastern region; (d) The zonal and meridional components of winds along the equator and 10° N zonal section exhibited a mirror-image-like distribution.  相似文献   

Magmatism in the eastern Aleutian Arc: temporal characteristic of igneous activity on Akutan Island   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Jay D. Romick  Michael R. Perfit  Samuel E. Swanson  Robert D. Shuster 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1990,104(6):700-721

Lavas from Akutan Island, located in the eastern Aleutian arc at the transition between continental and oceanic crust, show a gradual change in their petrologic and chemical characteristics over the last 4 million years. The oldest lavas exposed on the island, the Hot Springs Bay Volcanics (HSBV), range from magnesian basalt to dacite (45%–62% SiO₂). The most mafic basalts contain salitic clinopyroxene, Cr- and Al-rich spinel, and pargasitic amphibole suggesting that they were derived from relatively hydrous magmas at greater pressures than lavas from the younger Akutan Volcanics (AKV) and the modern volcano (MOD). AKV lavas also range between basalt and dacite (46%–63% SiO₂), but contain no hydrous phenocrysts and seem to have fractionated within a shallow level magma chamber. Lavas from the modern volcano are andesitic (52%–57% SiO₂) and have a mineral assemblage similar to that of AKV lavas of similar composition. With the exception of clinopyroxene and spinel in the most mafic lavas, the compositions of plagioclase (An_92?45), olivine (Fo_88?51), orthopyroxene (En_69?56), and titanomagnetite (15%–21% TiO₂) phenocrysts found in these lavas are within the range observed in lavas from other Aleutian volcanoes. Variations in the major element chemistry of the older lavas can be reproduced by fractional crystallization of the observed mineral assemblages, however closed system crystal fractionation models are inadequate to explain the trace element variations. During the last 4 million years, La/Yb ratios have decreased (6.5–3.3 for HSBV lavas and 2.9–1.9 for MOD lavas) whereas Ba/La ratios appear to have increased slightly (37–43 for HSBV and AKV, and 41–45 of MOD). The lower La/Yb ratios of MOD lavas correspond with lower total abundances of the REE and slightly higher Sr and Pb isotopic ratios. The increased⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios and Pb isotopic ratios in the MOD lavas, the less enriched LREE, and the higher Ba/La ratios may result from partial melting of an arc source which has experienced previous melting events but has continued to be contaminated by a component from the subducting slab. It may also indicate a change in the degree of partial melting of the underlying mantle, which corresponds to a different percentage of a slab derived component being incorporated into the overlying mantle.  相似文献   

Chemical exchange during hydrothermal alteration of basalt by seawater—I. Experimental results for major and minor components of seawater     

Michael J. Mottl  Heinrich D. Holland 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1978,42(8):1103-1115

Fresh mid-ocean ridge basalt of varying crystallinity has been powdered and reacted with seawater and an artificial Na-K-Ca-Cl solution at 200–500°C and 500–1000 bar in sealed gold capsules. Water/rock mass ratios of 1–3 were used and durations ranged from 2 to 20 months.These time periods were sufficient for most elements to approach a steady-state concentration in solution which was determined by equilibrium with alteration minerals (Mg, SiO₂, SO₄), by rate of formation of these minerals (Na, Ca), or by depletion from the rock (K, B, Ba). The resulting solutions closely resemble the brines from the basalt-seawater geothermal system at Reykjanes, Iceland. Mg was almost completely removed from seawater into the alteration products smectite, tremolite-actinolite, or talc. Sulfate also was removed to low concentrations, both by precipitation of anyhydrite and by reduction to sulfide. Net transfer of Na from seawater into solids occurred in most experiments by formation of sodic feldspar and possibly analcime. Sr was removed from seawater in some experiments but showed no change or a small gain in others. SiO₂, Ca, K, Ba, B and CO₂ were leached from basalt and enriched in solution. SiO₂ concentrations were controlled by saturation with quartz at 300°C and above. The principal Ca-bearing phases which formed were anhydrite, the hydrated Ca-silicate truscottite, tremolite-actinolite, and possibly wairakite. No K-rich phases formed. For some minerals the crystallinity of the starting basalt affected the amount which formed.Removal of Mg from seawater into solid alteration products occurred rapidly and was balanced largely by leaching of Ca from basalt. Net transfer of Na from seawater into solids occurred more slowly and was balanced mainly by leaching of additional Ca from basalt. Thus, reaction between seawater and basalt at low water/rock ratios can be considered to consist of two exchanges: Mg for Ca, and Na for Ca.  相似文献   

Evidence for the depletion of ammonia in the Uranus atmosphere     

Samuel Gulkis  Michael A. Janssen  Edward T. Olsen 《Icarus》1978,34(1):10-19

The theoretical disk brightness temperature spectra for Uranus are computed and compared with the observed microwave spectrum. It is shown that the emission observed at short centimeter wavelengths originates deep below the region where ammonia would ordinarily begin to condense. We demonstrate that this result is inconsistent with a wide range of atmospheric models in which the partial pressure of NH₃ is given by the vapor-pressure equation in the upper atmosphere. It is estimated that the ammonia mixing ratio must be less than 10^?6 in the 150 to 200°K temperature range. This is two orders of magnitude less than the expected mixing ratio based on solar abundances. The evidence for this depletion and a possible explanation are discussed.  相似文献   

An estimate of the temperature and abundance of CH₄ and other molecules in the atmosphere of Uranus     

Michael J.S. Belton  S.H. Hayes 《Icarus》1975,24(3):348-357

We present a preliminary analysis of CH₄ absorptions near 6800 Å in new high resolution spectra of Uranus. A curve of growth analysis of the data yields a rotational temperature near 100 K and a CH₄/H₂ ratio that is 1 to 3 times that expected for a solar type composition. The long pathlengths of CH₄, apparently demanded by absorptions near 4700 Å, are qualitatively shown to be the result of line formation in a deep, predominantly Rayleigh scattering atmosphere in which continuum absorption is a strong function of wavelength. The analysis of the CH₄ also yields a minimum value for the effective pressure of line formation (～ 2 atm). This value is shown to be twice that expected on Uranus if the atmosphere were predominantly H₂. It is speculated that large amounts of some otherwise optically inert gas is present in the Uranus atmosphere. N₂ is suggested as a possible candidate since there are cosmogonic reasons why Uranus should contain large amounts of N relative to C, He, and H, and also because the pressure-induced pure rotation spectrum of N₂ could possibly account for the low brightness temperatures that have recently been observed at 33 and 350 μm. If N₂ is present the planet probably possesses a surface at the 10–100 atmosphere level.  相似文献   

Large-scale ionization fronts and the nature and distribution of light scattering particles in the orion nebula     

Michael A. Dopita  Syuzo Isobe  John Meaburn 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1975,34(1):91-121

Image-tube filter photographs calibrated against photoelectric filter photometry have been used to give maps of M42 in absolute flux units over the central 15 arc min of the nebula in Hα, [Nii] (λ 6584 Å), Hβ and continuum at λ 4700 Å. Maps of the ratios Hα/[Nii] and (for the first time) of continuum/Hβ have been produced with unprecedented spatial resolution. These show that the gas to dust ratio is high near the exciting stars and falls strongly in the vicinity of large scale ionization fronts marked by minima in the Hα/[Nii] ratio. These results are interpreted in terms of detailed shell models containing either ice or graphite or silicate scattering particles. In all models there must be a central hole in the distribution of scattering particles. The effect of neutral globules and intrusions is investigated. It is found that all types of grain are trapped inside neutral intrusions near the centre of the nebula by the pressure of the Lα light surrounding the globule, but in the early evolution of the nebula particles can escape into the ionized medium when fronts are R-type. Ice grains escaping at this time will be destroyed for distances to the exciting stars less than 1 pc. These results can explain both the central hole in dust and the underabundance of oxygen in the ionized gas observed earlier. Arguments depending on colour index of the scattered light indicate that mixtures of scattered light from ice in the globules and from ice in the ionized medium can explain the observations, but that the graphite and silicate particles fail. A schematic model of the Orion Nebula is presented to attempt to explain the large scale phenomena observed here. It demonstrates that simple shell models for this nebula are dubious.  相似文献
