Granites and migmatites of the Damara belt,South West Africa. Petrography and melting experiments     

Dr. Christoph Hoffmann 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1976,65(1):939-966

In the central area of the early paleozoic Damara belt migmatites and some types of granites (sensu lato) crop out. Conventional petrographic data were collected and melting experiments were carried out with 63 samples of such rocks. Based on these data, migmatite genesis can be classified as follows:

1. Formation by partial melting and separation of more liquid and more crystalline fractions, the melting behaviour of these fractions has to be principally similar then.
2. Formation by injection of “geologically liquid” crystal-melt mixes into rocks of (incidentally) similar or (more frequently) dissimilar melting behaviour.
3. Formation by partial melting of metasediments of originally different composition. The method is applied and demonstrated for outcrops with complicated interrelations and it is shown that temperature estimates are possible thereby (670° to 710° at 4–5 kb H₂O pressure in the central Damara belt).

Tektonik und Magmatismus im NW-Karakorum     

Hans -Jochen Schneider 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1959,46(2):426-476

Zusammenfassung Im NW-Karakorum, einem Innensegment der großen zentralasiatischen Faltengebirgsscharung, überschneiden sich die Einflüsse der variskisch schon weitgehend konsolidierten Pamirischen Scharung und der jungalpidisch noch hochaktiven Himalaya-Syntaxis, wobei die zone axiale des NW-Karakorum die paläogeographische und tektogenetische Schnittlinie darstellt.Die in den einzelnen Baueinheiten (Zonen I bis V) spezifischen Formungspläne, deren relative Altersfolge (b₁-b₂-B₃-B₄) durch eine tektonische Gefügeanalyse ermittelt ist, werden von einem jüngsten B₅-Plan (dem heute vorherrschenden WNW-ESE-Generalstreichen des Gebirges) überprägt. Im Verlaufe dieser letzten radialen Einengung fanden steile, nord- und südvergente Auschiebungen statt. Weiträumige Deckenüberschiebungen sind diesem Baustil fremd!

Summary The geological exploration of the NW-Karakoram, carried out by the author during the German-Austrian Himalaya-Karakoram Expedition in 1954, allows an insight into the complicated development of the Alpine type mountain building within the syntaxial bend of Central Asia.The zone axiale of the NW-Karakoram (Batura Muztagh), with its synorogenetic young cretaceous evolution of different granodioritic rocks, seems to mark a boundary-line of influences between the mainly Variscan consolidated Pamir Culmination, and the Alpine activated Himalaya Syntaxis. Contrasting to the northern part of the NW-Karakoram (the Tethys-Karakoram, see Abb. 2 and 4 / Zones V-Va), which in all its paleogeography and tectonic features belongs to the southern extremity of the Pamirs, the southern part (Zones I–III) on the other hand shows clear relations to the record of the Himalaya System. Especially the Tertiary (about Oligocene) synorogenetic regeneration (granitization) of the Nanga Parbat Dome at the end of the Jhelum-Wedge, has extended its influences, mainly as dynamometamorphism, up to the zone axiale and its crystalline schistose mantle-rocks (Zones III–IV).The results of a tectonic analysis of the different zones of the actual NW-Karakoram (II–V) show that each zone has its special B-tectonic structure of older deformation (see Abb. 3 and Taf. 15: b₁-b₂, B₃, B₄). Later the entire region was exposed to an unique pressure of a younger act of deformation (B₅), which caused the present actual general striking (WNW-ESE) of the zones. This B-tectonics are succeeded by huge elevations, mainly as different bloc-movement, of the mountain arcs. Contrasting to the synkinematic evolution of the granodioritic axis, distinct dykes of different igneous rocks of acid as well as basic composition, appearing in the zones III-IV-V, are younger than the B-tectonics.Sections across the NW-Karakoram (Abb. 4) show the change in vergency within the zone axiale, without a remarkable nappe structure in the whole area.

Exploring socio-hydrological determinants of crop yield in under-performing irrigation schemes: pathways for sustainable intensification     

Muhammad Khalifa  Nadir Ahmed Elagib  Bashir Mohammed Ahmed  Lars Ribbe  Karl Schneider 《水文科学杂志》2020,65(Z3):153-168

ABSTRACT

Understanding the human–water–food–climate nexus is central to achieving sustainable intensification (SI) in agriculture. This research uses a socio-hydrological approach to understand the underpinning for implementing SI in the Gezira Irrigation Scheme, Sudan, by integrating vegetation indices derived from remote sensing, ancillary, gridded soil and precipitation data, supplemented by interviews with 393 farmers. The productivity gap was estimated as the difference between the potential and actual productivities. Based upon data on farmers’ socio-economic status and field practices, a regression tree model was built to determine the factors that control the sorghum yield. The model revealed that the financial status of farmers and access to water are the most influential factors on sorghum yield. A conceptual framework that elucidates SI and its bi-directional feedback to the environment, society and the economy is proposed. Implementing SI in the scheme has implications on water and food security in Sudan and beyond its borders.  相似文献   

Origin and Petrogenetic Implications of Spessartine Garnet in Highly-Fractionated Granite from the Central Eastern Desert of Egypt     

Mabrouk SAMI  Theodoros NTAFLOS  Haroun A. MOHAMED  Esam S. FARAHAT  Christoph HAUZENBERGER  Nasser M. MAHDY  Khaled M. ABDELFADIL  Douaa FATHY 《《地质学报》英文版》2020,94(3):763-776

A highly-fractionated garnet-bearing muscovite granite represents the marginal granitic facies of the Abu-Diab multiphase pluton in the Central Eastern Desert of Egypt. New electron microprobe analyses(EMPA) and laser ablation inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry(LA-ICP-MS) data from garnets are reported, in order to constrain their origin and genesis. Garnet in the Abu-Diab host granite is euhedral to subhedral, generally homogeneous and, in rare cases, it shows weak zonation. The garnet contains appreciable amounts of MnO and FeO, with lesser amounts of MgO and CaO, yielding an end-member formula of Sps_(61–72)Alm_(25–35)Prp_(1–4)Adr_(0–1). Moreover, it is depleted in large ion lithophile elements(LILE) with lower values of Ba, Nb and Sr relative to the primitive mantle. Additionally, it contains high concentrations of HREE and Y and their REE pattern shows strong negative Eu anomalies. The garnet was crystallized under relatively low temperature(646°C–591°C) and pressure( 3 kbar) conditions. The textural and chemical features indicate that the garnet is magmatic in origin and is chemically similar to that from highly-fractionated A-type granite. It was probably formed at the expense of biotite in a highly-evolved MnO-rich magma and/or by hydroxyl complexing of Mn during the ascending fluid phases.  相似文献   

Oscillatory zoning in eclogitic garnet and amphibole,Northern Serpentinite Melange,Cuba: a record of tectonic instability during subduction?   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

A. García-Casco  R. L. Torres-Roldán  G. Millán  P. Monié  J. Schneider 《Journal of Metamorphic Geology》2002,20(6):581-598

Exotic blocks of eclogite from distant localities along the Northern Serpentinite Melange of Cuba have comparable P–T histories that include high‐pressure prograde sections (450–600 °C, >15 kbar) associated with subduction of oceanic lithosphere, and retrograde sections within the albite–epidote amphibolite facies (<500 °C, <10 kbar) related to melange uplift. ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar and Rb/Sr cooling ages (118–103 Ma) of one of the blocks indicate pre‐Aptian subduction and Aptian–Albian uplift. Detailed X‐ray imaging and profiling further reveals that minerals in these eclogite blocks (notably garnet and amphibole) display subtle but well defined oscillatory zoning that developed along the prograde trajectory of the rocks, previous to attainment of peak eclogitic conditions. The chemistry (e.g. coupled changes of Mg# and Mn in garnet, and of Si, Ti, Al and Na in amphibole) and geometry (euhedral to anhedral shapes) of the oscillations can be interpreted in terms of subtle fluctuations in P–T during the general prograde subduction‐related metamorphic path. A (near‐) equilibrium model is presented for the formation of oscillations at near peak conditions by means of recurrent dissolution‐growth reaction processes. This model for near‐peak conditions, and the chemical signatures of earlier oscillations (notably in amphibole), suggest that episodes of retrogression (upward movement?) affected parts of the subducting slab. It is proposed that these retrograde episodes record the tectonic rupture of the subducting slab and, probably, of the upper plate mantle, either due to the intrinsic dynamic behaviour of subduction systems or to the effects of the plate‐tectonic rearrangement of the Caribbean region during the Early Cretaceous.  相似文献   

Carbonates in Upper Permian evaporites of the Northern Calcareous Alps,Austria     

Christoph Spötl 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1992,81(2):309-321

Thin black dolomites occur within the evaporitic Alpine Haselgebirge Formation (Late Permian) of the central and eastern Northern Calcareous Alps, Austria. They have been compared with the southalpine Bellerophon Formation byTollmann (1964). Samples obtained from the gypsum-anhydrite deposit of Wienern am Grundlsee, Styria, are mostly unfossiliferous mudstones (dolomicrite and dolomicrospar) devoid of sedimentary structures. Only few samples contain a low-diversity ostracode fauna. Electron microprobe and X-ray diffraction analysis indicate well-ordered and near-stoichiometric dolomite (49.9±0.2 mol% CaCO₃). The oxygen isotopic composition varies between –3.0 and –5.7 PDB. The ¹³C ratios fall into two distinct groups: –0.9 to +1.9, and –3.5 to –6.8 PDB. The carbon isotope data of the first group indicate a predominantly marine origin of the carbonates. The significantly depleted ¹³C ratios of the second group are probably due to freshwater influx into the basin and/or sulfate reduction. Sulfur and strontium isotope data from intercalated anhydrite and gypsum preclude an entirely non-marine origin of the brines. The light ¹⁸O ratios are probably due to early diagenetic sulfate reduction and/or dolomite recrystallization during moderate burial. A detailed interpretation of the depositional environment is rendered impossible because of the pervasive alpine tectonics. However, northalpine Bellerophon carbonates appear to be restricted to areas of major anhydrite deposition, and are absent in the halitedominated facies.

Zusammenfassung Im zentralen und östlichen Abschnitt der Nördlichen Kalkalpen Österreichs treten geringmächtige, bituminöse Dolomite im Verband der salinaren Alpinen Haselgebirge Formation (Oberperm) auf. Sie wurden vonTollmann (1964) mit der südalpinen Bellerophon Formation verglichen. Bei den untersuchten Proben von der Gips- und Anhydritlagerstätte Wienern am Grundlsee (Steiermark) handelt es sich fast durchwegs um fossilleere Mikrite und Mikrosparite, die keinerlei Sedimentstrukturen aufweisen. Nur sehr wenige Proben führen Ostrakoden. Nach Mikrosonden-Analysen und röntgendiffraktometrischen Untersuchungen bestehen diese mikrokristallinen Dolomite aus fast stöchiometrischen, gut geordneten Dolomit (49.9±0.2 Mol% CaCO₃). Die Sauerstoffisotopenwerte schwanken von –3.0 bis –5.7 PDB und die ¹³C Verhältnisse fallen in zwei Gruppen: –0.9 bis +1.9, und –3.5 bis –6.8 PDB. Die Werte der ersten Gruppe indizieren eine im wesentlichen marine Bildung der Karbonate. Die deutlich leichteren ¹³C-Werte der zweiten Gruppe können durch Süßwassereinfluß während der Sedimentation und/oder durch Sulfatreduktion erklärt werden. Schwefel- und Strontium-Isotopenwerte, gemessen an Anhydriten und Gipsen im Verband mit den Dolomiten, schließen eine rein nicht-marine Herkunft der Salzlösungen aus. Die negativen ¹⁸O-Verhältnisse der Dolomite sind wahrscheinlich auf diagenetische Prozesse (Sulfatreduktion und/oder Umkristallisation) zurückzuführen. Die enorme alpidische Deformation dieser Evaporitserien gestattet es nicht, das ursprüngliche Ablagerungsmilieu der Karbonate zu rekonstruieren. Die nordalpinen Bellerophon Karbonate scheinen jedoch an Ablagerungsbereiche mit mächtiger Anhydritbildung gebunden zu sein, und fehlen primär in der Halit-dominierten Fazies.

Résumé En Autriche, dans les secteurs central et oriental des Alpes calcaires du nord, existent des dolomies bitumineuses de faible puissance en relation avec la formation évaporitique alpine de l'Haselgebirge (Permien supérieur).Tollmann (1964) les a comparées à la formation sud-alpine de Bellérophon. Des échantillons provenant des gisements de gypse et d'anhydrite de Wienern sur le Grundlsee (Styrie) montrent des mudstones (dolomicrites à dolomicrosparites) dépourvus de fossiles et de structures sédimentaires. Seuls quelques échantillons contiennent une faune à ostracodes peu diversifiée. Les examens à la microsonde et aux rayons X montrent une dolomite bien ordonnée et quasi-stoechiométrique (49,9±0,2% moléculaire de CaCo₃). La composition isotopique de l'oxygène varie entre –3,0 et –5,7 PDB. Les rapports ¹³C se répartissent en deux groupes: –0,9 à +1,9 et –3,5 à –6,8 PDB. Ces données indiquent pour le premier groupe une origine surtout marine des carbonates. Les valeurs moins élevées des rapports du second groupe sont dues probablement à l'arrivée d'eau douce dans le bassin et/ou à une réduction des sulfates. Les valeurs isotopiques du soufre et du strontium, mesurées sur les gypses et anhydrites associés aux dolomies, excluent une origine entièrement continentale pour les saumures. Les faibles rapports ¹⁸O sont dûs probablement à une réduction diagénétique précoce des sulfates et/ou à la recristallisation de la dolomite pendant l'enfouissement. Une interprétation détaillée des conditions de dépôt est rendue impossible par l'ampleur de la déformation tectonique alpine. Il semble toutefois que des carbonates nord-alpins de type «Bellérophon» soient liés aux aires de forte sédimentation d'anhydrite et soient absents dans les faciès à halite dominante.

Validation of vulnerability mapping methods by field investigations and numerical modelling   总被引：4，自引：1，他引：3  

Christoph Neukum  Heinz Hötzl  Thomas Himmelsbach 《Hydrogeology Journal》2008,16(4):641-658

Vulnerability maps illustrate the potential threat of contaminants to groundwater and can be considered as important tools for land-use planning and related legislation. For karst areas with characteristic preferential infiltration conditions, vulnerability maps are also excellent tools for source and resource protection. However, the resulting qualitative maps are often inconsistent and even contradictive and thus might lead to inconclusive vulnerability assessments. The results of a validation of vulnerability maps produced using four different methods, DRASTIC, GLA, PI and EPIK, are reported for a karst area in southwest Germany. By means of measured hydraulic and transport parameters of the geological sequence, numerical simulations were used based on a conceptual model for the area under study. The mean transit time through the unsaturated zone (resource protection) was used as the validation parameter. The study demonstrates that the highest level of accuracy is achieved with the GLA- and PI methods. Both DRASTIC and EPIK are not able to incorporate highly variable distributions and thickness of cover sediments and their protective properties in the respective mapping procedure. Thus, vulnerability maps produced with DRASTIC, EPIK, and related methods should be used with care when employed in vulnerability assessments for land use planning and related decision-making.

Résumé  Les cartes de vulnérabilité illustrent la menace potentielle des contaminants envers les eaux souterraines, et peuvent être considérées comme des outils importants en matière d'aménagement foncier et de réglementation associée. Sur les domaines karstiques, caractérisés par des conditions d'infiltration préférentielle, ces cartes sont également d'excellents outils de protection des sources et des ressources. Cependant, les cartes qualitatives résultantes sont généralement incohérentes voire contradictoires, et peuvent par là-même mener à des évaluations de vulnérabilité peu concluantes. La présente étude expose les résultats de validation de cartes de vulnérabilité produites selon quatre méthodes différentes (DRASTIC, GLA, PI et EPIK), dans le cas d'un domaine karstique du sud-est de l'Allemagne. Par le biais des paramètres de transport et hydrauliques mesurés sur la séquence géologique, des simulations numériques basées sur un modèle conceptuel du secteur d'étude ont été utilisées. Les temps de transit moyens à travers la zone non saturée (protection de la ressource) ont été utilisés comme paramètres de validation. L'étude démontre que le niveau maximum de précision est obtenu par les méthodes GLA et PI. Dans la phase de cartographie, les méthodes EPIK et DRASTIC sont incapables d'intégrer une forte variabilité dans les distributions et les épaisseurs de sédiments de couverture, ainsi que dans leurs potentiels de protection. Aussi, les cartes de vulnérabilité produites par les méthodes DRASTIC et EPIK doivent être utilisées avec précaution dans le cadre des évaluations de vulnérabilité à but décisionnaire pour les aménagements fonciers.

Resumen  Los mapas de vulnerabilidad ilustran la amenaza potencial de contaminantes para el agua subterránea y pueden ser considerados herramientas importantes para planeamiento del uso de la tierra y legislación relacionada. Para áreas cársticas con sus características condiciones de infiltración preferencial, los mapas de vulnerabilidad son también excelentes herramientas para protección de fuentes y recursos. Sin embargo, los mapas cualitativos resultantes son frecuentemente inconsistentes y hasta contradictorios y por lo tanto podrían conducir a evaluaciones de vulnerabilidad no concluyentes. Los resultados de una validación de mapas de vulnerabilidad producidos usando cuatro métodos diferentes, DRASTIC, GLA, PI y EPIK, son presentados aquí para un área cárstica en Alemania suroccidental. Se usaron simulaciones numéricas usando parámetros hidráulicos y de transporte medidos de la secuencia geológica y basándose en un modelo conceptual del área en estudio. El tiempo promedio de tránsito a través de la zona no saturada (protección del recurso) fue utilizado como el parámetro de validación. El estudio demuestra que el máximo nivel de precisión es alcanzado con los métodos GLA y PI. DRASTIC y EPIK no fueron capaces de incorporar distribuciones altamente variables ni espesor de sedimentos de cubierta y sus propiedades protectivas en el respectivo procedimiento de elaboración de mapas. Por lo tanto los mapas de vulnerabilidad producidos con DRASTIC, EPIK y métodos relacionados deberían ser usados con cuidado cuando se usen en evaluaciones de vulnerabilidad para planeamiento del uso de tierra y toma de decisiones relacionadas.

Solution-precipitation creep and fluid flow in halite: a case study of Zechstein (Z1) rocksalt from Neuhof salt mine (Germany)     

Zsolt Schléder  János L. Urai  Sofie Nollet  Christoph Hilgers 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》2008,97(5):1045-1056

Zechstein (Z1) rocksalt from the Fulda basin, from the immediate vicinity of the Hessen potash bed is folded into tight to isoclinal folds which are cut by an undeformed, 1 cm thick, coarse-grained halite vein. Microstructures were investigated in etched, gamma-irradiated thin sections from both the wall rock and the vein. The lack of synsedimentary dissolution structures and the widespread occurrence of plate-shaped and hopper grains in the wall-rock suggests that the sedimentary environment was perennial lake. Deformation microstructures are in good agreement with solution-precipitation creep process, and salt flow under very low differential stress. Strength contrast between anhydrite-rich and anhydrite-poor layers caused the small scale folding in the halite beds. The vein is completely sealed and composed mainly of euhedral to subhedral halite grains, which often overgrow the wall-rock grains. Those microstructures, together with the presence of occasional fluid inclusion bands, suggest that the crystals grew into a solution-filled open space. Based on considerations on the maximum value of in-situ differential stress, the dilatancy criteria, the amount of released fluids from the potash bed during metamorphism and the volume change, it is proposed that the crack was generated by hydrofracturing of the rocksalt due to the presence of the salt-metamorphic fluid at near-lithostatic pressure.  相似文献   

Holocene flooding history of the Lower Tagus Valley (Portugal)     

Geert‐Jan Vis  Sjoerd J. P. Bohncke  Heike Schneider  Cornelis Kasse  Sander Coenraads‐Nederveen  Koen Zuurbier  Jouke Rozema 《第四纪科学杂志》2010,25(8):1222-1238

The present paper aims to reconstruct the Lower Tagus Valley flooding history for the last ca. 6500 a, to explore the suitability of pollen‐based local vegetation development in supporting the reconstruction of flooding history, and to explain fluvial activity changes in terms of allogenic (climate, human impact) and autogenic (system intrinsic) processes. The flooding history has been determined by cored sedimentary records located ～18 km apart in distal, low‐energy backswamps on both sides of the Tagus channel. In these low‐energy backswamps, fine‐grained sediment layers deposited from suspended load of overbank flood water reflect periods with multiple overbank floods. By means of a multi‐proxy approach (sedimentology, magnetic susceptibility, grain size, loss‐on‐ignition, carbonate content and pollen), sedimentary and environmental changes were identified. At both sites, synchronous lithological intervals accumulated, suggesting a common origin for the changes in fluvial activity since ca. 6500 cal. a BP. Based on lithological changes, three phases of high fluvial activity (6500–5500, 4900–3500 and 1000–0 cal. a BP) and two phases of low fluvial activity (5500–4900 and 3500–1000 cal. a BP) were identified. Two periods with dominant allogenic controls on fluvial activity in the Lower Tagus Valley were identified: relative sea level (6500–5500 cal. a BP) and human impact (1000–0 cal. a BP). During the intermediate period, changes in fluvial activity may have been caused by climate (5500–1000 cal. BP), but unambiguous correlations are difficult to make. This is due to the way allogenic controls are translated through the fluvial system, the geomorphological differences between upstream and downstream studies and autogenic processes. The comparison of local vegetation development and flooding phases as reconstructed using sedimentology shows a limited added value of using local palynology as a proxy for fluvial activity.
