Thermodynamic and kinetic constraints on reaction rates among minerals and aqueous solutions. II. Rate constants,effective surface area,and the hydrolysis of feldspar     

Harold C. Helgeson  William M. Murphy  Per Aagaard 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1984,48(12):2405-2432

Analysis of experimental data reported by Lagache (1965, 1976), Evans (1965), Busenberg (1975), Busenberg and Clemency (1976), Holdren and Berner (1979), Siegel and Pfannkuch (1984), and Chou and Wollast (1984) with the aid of irreversible thermodynamics and transition state theory (Aagaard and Helgeson, 1977, 1982) suggests that at temperatures at least up to 650°C, the rate of both congruent and incongruent feldspar hydrolysis in aqueous solutions far from equilibrium at pH ? 10.6 ? (2300/T), where T stands for temperature in kelvins, is a function solely of effective surface area and pH at constant pressure and temperature. At higher pH, the rate is apparently pH-independent up to ~pH 8 at 25°C, where it again becomes pH-dependent at higher pH. Observations of scanning electron micrographs indicate that the cross-sectional area of etch pits on hydrolyzed feldspar grains is of the order of 10^?9 to 10^?8 cm² and that the ratio of the effective to total surface area (which may or may not change with reaction progress) ranges from <0.01 to 1, depending on the grain size, dislocation density, and the extent of comminution damage on the surfaces of the grains. Apparent rate constants retrieved from experimental data reported in the literature for feldspar hydrolysis in the lower pH-dependent range extend from ~10^?13 to ~10^?7 moles cm^?2 sec^?1 at temperatures from 25° to 200°C, which is consistent with activation enthalpies for albite and adularia of the order of 20 kcal mole^?1. In contrast, the apparent rate constants for the pH-independent rate law range from ~10^?16 to ~10^?11 moles cm^?2 sec^?1 at temperatures from 25° to 650°C, which requires an activation enthalpy for adularia of ~ 9 kcal mole^?1. These observations are consistent with surface control of reaction rates among minerals and aqueous solutions. The rate-limiting step in the pH-dependent case apparently corresponds at the lower end of the pH scale to breakdown of a protonated configuration of atoms on the surface of the reactant feldspar, but at higher pH the rate is limited by decomposition of an activated surface complex corresponding in stoichiometry to hydrous feldspar. In highly alkaline solutions, an activated complex containing hydroxyl ions apparently controls the rate of feldspar hydrolysis. Nevertheless, near equilibrium, regardless of pH the rate is proportional to the chemical affinity of the overall hydrolysis reaction.  相似文献

Die nordschwedischen Eisenerze und verwandte Lagerstätten als Beispiele eruptiver Spaltungsprozesse     

Per Geijer 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1935,26(5):351-366

Zusammenfassung Seit einem früheren Stadium der geologischen Erforschung der nordschwedischen Eisenerzlagerstätten vom Typus Kiruna — meistens apatitreiche Magnetiterze — war es den damit beschäftigten Forschern klar, daß die Substanz der Erze im magmatischen Stadium von dem Magma der begleitenden Porphyrgesteine abgespaltet wurde. Die Natur und die Ursachen dieses Abspaltens müssen nach dem geologischen Befund beurteilt werden, denn es handelt sich um spätmagmatische Ereignisse in einem experimentell noch nicht erforschbaren Gebiet. Mineralparagenese, Struktur, Kontaktverhältnisse usw. deuten auf Kristallisation aus einem an leichtflüchtigen Gemengteilen reichen Magma (pneumotektische Gebilde). Der spätmagmatische oder restmagmatische Charakter der Erzbildung wird auch durch Übergänge nach Erztypen, die bei niedrigeren Temperaturen gebildet sind, klargelegt. Die Trennung zwischen Erz und Gestein erscheint ebenso scharf wie in den Fällen, in denen erzbildende Lösungen gasförmig abgeschieden worden sind. Die Abscheidung muß auch bei den hier behandelten spätmagmatischen Erzen auf die Wirkung der leichtflüchtigen Gemengteile (Magmagase) zurückgeführt werden. Genetisch verwandt sind sulfidische Erze, deren Anknüpfung an den Kirunatypus aus ihrem Apatit- und Magnetitgehalt hervorgeht, und die sich entweder aus pneumotektischen Magmen oder aus gasförmigen Lösungen kristallisierten. Mehr entfernt von der magmatischen Kristallisation folgen gewisse metasomatische Erze ähnlicher Zusammensetzung. Eigentümlicherweise zeigen aber die kontaktmetasomatischen Eisenerze in Kalkstein eine wesentlich andere Zusammensetzung der aus dem Magma stammenden Gemengteile, obgleich auch ihr Material aus dem Magma in Gasform entwich. Besonders auffallend ist der hohe Kieselsäuregehalt und die Seltenheit des Apatits. Diese Eigenschaften findet man auch in den Lagerstätten von diesem Typus, die in demselben Gebiet wie die Kiruna-Erze auftreten, und die mit den dortigen Tiefengesteinen verbunden sind.  相似文献

Probable causes for cyanobacterial expansion in the Baltic Sea: Role of anoxia and phosphorus retention     

Per?WestmanEmail author  Johanna?Borgendahl  Thomas?S.?Bianchi  Nianhong?Chen 《Estuaries and Coasts》2003,26(3):680-689

This study corroborates the hypothesis that nitrogen-fixing cyanobacteria have probably occurred as an important component of the phytoplankton community in the Baltic Sea at least since brackish water conditions were initiated 8,500¹⁴C yr BP. Pigment analyses indicate that extensive occurrences started prior to a sharp increase in nutrient levels dated to 7,100¹⁴C yr BP. The cyanobacteria could have functioned as a natural trigger for eutrophication in the Baltic Sea by importing nitrogen. This is also verified by a contemporaneous drop in the δ¹⁵N values from 4‰ to around 2‰. We further conclude that the spreading of cyanobacteria was probably caused by a decrease in nitrogen∶phosphorus (N∶P) in the water mass that resulted from the intrusion of oceanic water with high P levels. The fractionation of P in sediments indicated that iron-bound P was efficiently sequestered under anoxic conditions that occurred as a consequence of the establishment of a stable stratification caused by the marine intrusion. This pool only showed minor variations around 3 μmol g⁻¹ at the freshwater-brackish water transition. All P pools except the CaCO₃ fraction showed a distinct increase around 9,300¹⁴C yr BP prior to the transition. We interpreted this increase as a change in preservation of organic matter or in the source of the sediment. Slightly after 4,000¹⁴C yr BP there was a dramatic drop in all P pools without any corresponding decreases in total N and carbon. Total P decreased from around 75 to 25–30 μmol g⁻¹. The most dramatic drop occurred in the organic bound and the detrital apatite fractions, which decreased by a factor of 3–4. We explain this as a preferential regeneration of P, especially organic P, compared to other nutrients due to more prevalent anoxic conditions.  相似文献

Filamentary structures in planetary nebulae     

Hanna Dahlgren  Per Carlqvist  Gösta F. Gahm 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2007,310(1-2):65-72

We have studied small-scale, filamentary features in 14 planetary nebulae and found that some structures are recurrent and shaped like the letters V and Y, with the apex or stem pointing toward the central parts of the nebula. Two such filaments containing dust, one in NGC 3132 and one in NGC 7293, were investigated in more detail. The mass and density of the filaments were obtained from extinction measurements, and their physical properties were derived. We propose that the structures are confined by magnetic fields, and derive magnetic field strengths of about 10⁻⁸ T, in line with earlier estimates. We also estimate the magnitude of the electric currents that we expect are generated in these dynamic systems. We propose a theory where the magnetic fields control the sculpting and evolution of small-scale filaments. This theory demonstrates how the substructures may form magnetized flux ropes that are twisted around each other, in the shape of double helices. Similar structures, and with similar origin, are found in many other astrophysical environments.  相似文献   

A New Enantiornithes (Aves) from the Early Cretaceous of China     

Johan DALS?TT  Per G.P. ERICSON  Zhonge ZHOU 《《地质学报》英文版》2014,88(4):1034-1040

A new bird from the early Cretaceous Yixian Formation of Liaoning, China is described. This new species, Grabauornis lingyuanensis, shares several synapomorphies with the Enantiornithes. The specimen is relatively well preserved. The skeletal morphology of Grabauornis bears close resemblance to that of other Chinese members of this clade. The brachial index （the ratio between the lengths of humerus and ulna） is 0.95, which is close to the average for enantiornithine birds. It indicates that Grabauornis was a rather good flyer, and the presence of an alula in the wing further testifies to this.  相似文献   

Petroleum geoscience in Norden - exploration, production and organization

Offshore exploration in Norway and Denmark-in the North Sea, the Norwegian Sea and the Barents Sea-has involved drilling about 850 wildcat wells, resulting in about 300 oil and gas finds, of which 84 are fields with production. The recoverable resources of all these finds total about 65 billion barrels of oil equivalent. Almost all these hydrocarbons come from a Jurassic source and the main reservoirs and traps are Jurassic sandstones in fault blocks and Paleocene sandstones or Cretaceous chalks in gentle domes. The article describes four major fields-Ekofisk, Gullfaks, Ormen Lange and SnФhvitto illustrate some of the many challenges in developing and producing the hydrocarbons.
Elsewhere in Norden, there has been much less exploration. Drilling results have mostly been negative in mainland Sweden, onshore Denmark, onshore Svalbard and on- and offshore West Greenland. Minor oil finds have been made in Palaeozoic rocks in the Baltic Sea. The first wells have recently been drilled off the Faroe Islands, resulting in one discovery. No drilling has taken place on- or offshore East Greenland.
As a result of the hydrocarbon activities in Norway and Denmark, petroleum geoscience there has flourished, with 2000 geoscientists currently employed in the industry, many technical innovations made, a wealth of publically available information and a great increase in the understanding of the geology.  相似文献   

Putative Meteoritic Craters in Río Cuarto (Central Argentina) Interpreted as Eolian Structures     

Cione  Alberto L.  Tonni  Eduardo P.  San Cristóbal  Jorge  Hernández  Pedro J.  Benítez  Adrián  Bordignon  Fernando  Perí  Jorge A. 《Earth, Moon, and Planets》2002,91(1):9-24

Ten oblong aligned depressions in the Río Cuarto area (provincia de Córdoba, Argentina) were supposed to be the result of very-low-angle Holocene meteoroid impacts. However, we consider that authors that studied the structures did not demonstrated their extraterrestrial origin. We suggest that an eolian origin for the structures of Río Cuarto is more likely. Actually, these landforms integrate large systems of similar deflation/accumulation geoforms aligned according to predominant winds during different periods.  相似文献
