An experimental study has been conducted to constrain how thermal history controls crystal size distribution (CSD) of plagioclase
in cooling basalts. Data from all experiments are dominated by a log-linear segment of decreasing number density with increasing
crystal size, consistent with observations in many natural rocks. The slope of the CSD is found to be a function of cooling
rate, faster cooling leading to greater slopes. At constant cooling rate the CSDs flatten as temperature decreases, and are
sometimes kinked, characteristics consistent with independent textural observations that crystal agglomeration contributes
significantly to crystal “growth”. A downturn is observed toward small size, which suggests Ostwald ripening. Furthermore,
we find that thermal history above the liquidus has a major influence on CSDs and on the temperatures of phase appearance.
We conclude that near the liquidus heterogeneous nucleation typically dominates.

In the present study, an ANOVA-like inference technique is used aiming at to assess if Alentejo, southern Portugal, could be considered a homogeneous region for drought management purposes. First, Alentejo was divided into four sub-regions according to latitude (north and south), and longitude (west and east). Inside each sub-region, 10 weather stations were considered. The time series of the Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI) were obtained for these stations using precipitation data for the period 1932–1999 (67 years). Contingency tables for the transitions between SPI drought classes were obtained for these time series. Loglinear models were fitted to these contingency tables to estimate the probabilities for drought class transitions. An ANOVA-like inference was applied considering the four sub-regions like treatments of a two way layout with two factors, latitude and longitude, each one with two levels, north and south, and west and east respectively. The weather stations of each sub-region were treated as replicates. Significant differences between west and east were found, that allowed to consider that Alentejo could be composed by two sub-regions. 相似文献

Two series of (Al,Mn)-substituted goethites were synthesized from ferrihydrite made in alkaline media, with different Al/Mn mole ratios ([Al + Mn]/Fe molar ratio up to 0.12). Powder X-ray diffraction and extended X-ray absorption fine structure (EXAFS) techniques were used to assess the structural characteristics of the simultaneous substitution in goethite. XRD patterns revealed that all the obtained solids remain in a goethite-like structure. Rietveld refinement of X-ray diffraction data indicates that the increasing Mn substitution and consequent decrease of Al substitution causes an increase in the unit cell volume. This change is accompanied by the increment of the various Me-Me distances. XANES spectra at the Al and Mn K-edge confirm the octahedral coordination of Al and the trivalent oxidation state of the Mn ion in all the synthesized samples. EXAFS spectra at the Fe K-edge indicate that the local order around the Fe atom remains practically constant upon (Mn,Al) substitution. Measurements in the Mn K-edge show that distances Mn-Me suffer different changes with the increase in Mn substitution: a marked decrease in E and a slight decrease in E′, while DC remains constant. E and E′ values correspond to the distance between one Mn and one neighboring Me (Fe, Mn, Al) atom, both situated in two polyhedra linked by an edge. These polyhedra belong to the same double row of the goethite structure. DC value corresponds to the distance between one Mn and one Me (Fe, Mn, Al) atom, situated in two octahedral linked by one corner and belonging to two adjacent double chains. All the intermetallic distances are minor than the corresponding singly substituted goethites, this fact is attributed to the structure contraction due to the presence of Al(III) which restrains the axial distortion of Mn. Dissolution-time curves, resulting from exposure to 6 M HCl at 318 K, show that the dissolution rate slows with increasing Al substitution and consequent decrease of Mn substitution, and the shape of the curve becomes increasingly sigmoidal for mixed goethite with large Al content and Al-goethite. Dissolution kinetics of most samples are well described by the Kabai equation. Al dissolves almost congruently with respect to Fe, implying that it is homogeneously distributed in the structure. However, the convex χMn:χFe curve indicates that Mn tends to be concentrated in the outer layers of the goethite particles. 相似文献

Ethnic groups’ response to the 26 December 2004 earthquake and tsunami in Aceh, Indonesia 总被引：4，自引：4，他引：0

The 26 December 2004 earthquake and tsunami unfairly hit the different ethnic groups of Aceh, Indonesia. About 170,000 Acehnese
and Minangkabau people died in the Northern tip of Sumatra while only 44 Simeulue people passed away in the neighbouring Simeulue
island located near the earthquake epicentre. Such a difference in the death toll does not lie in the nature of the hazard
but in different human behaviours and ethnic contexts. The present study draws on a contextual framework of analysis where
people’s behaviour in the face of natural hazards is deeply influenced by the cultural, social, economic and political context.
Questionnaire-based surveys among affected communities, key informant interviews and literature reviews show that the people
of Simeulue detected the tsunami very early and then escaped to the mountains. On the other hand, Acehnese and Minangkabau
people, respectively in the cities of Banda Aceh and Meulaboh, did not anticipate the phenomenon and were thus caught by the
waves. The different behaviours of the victims have been commanded by the existence or the absence of a disaster subculture
among affected communities as well as by their capacity to protect themselves in facing the tsunami. People’s behaviours and
the capacity to protect oneself can be further tracked down to a deep tangle of intricate factors which include the armed
conflict that has been affecting the province since the 1970s, the historical and cultural heritage and the national political
economy system. This paper finally argues that the uneven impact of the 26 December 2004 earthquake and tsunami in Aceh lies
in the different daily life conditions of the ethnic groups struck by the disaster. 相似文献

New data collected along the slopes of Little and Great Bahama Bank and the abyssal plain of the Bahama Escarpment provides new insights about contour current‐related erosive structures and associated deposits. The Bahamian slope shows abundant evidence of bottom current activity such as furrows, comet‐like structures, sediment waves and drifts. At a seismic scale, large erosion surfaces and main periods of drift growth resulted from current acceleration related to plate tectonic processes and progressive opening and closure of gateways and long‐term palaeoclimate evolution. At present‐day, erosion features and contourite drifts are either related to relatively shallow currents (<1000 m water depth) or to deep currents (>2500 m water depth). It appears that the carbonate nature of the drifts does not impact the drift morphology at the resolution addressed in the present study. Classical drift morphologies defined in siliciclastic environments are found, such as mounded, plastered and separated drifts. In core, contourite sequences show a bi‐gradational trend that resembles classical contourite sequences in siliciclastic deposits showing a direct relationship with a change in current velocity at the sea floor. However, in a carbonate system the peak in grain size is associated with increased winnowing rather than increased sediment supply as in siliciclastic environments. In addition, the carbonate contourite sequence is usually thinner than in siliciclastics because of lower sediment supply rates. Little Bahama Bank and Great Bahama Bank contourites contain open‐ocean input and slope‐derived debris from glacial episodes. Inner platform, platform edge and open ocean pelagic input characterize the classical periplatform ooze during interglacials. In all studied examples, the drift composition depends on the sea floor topography surrounding the drift location and the type of sediment supply. Carbonate particles are derived from either the slope or the platform in slope and toe of slope drifts, very deep contourites have distant siliciclastic sources of sediment supply. The recent discovery of the importance of a large downslope gravitary system along Bahamian slopes suggests frequent interactions between downslope and along‐slope (contour currents) processes. The interlayering of mass flow deposits and contourites at a seismic scale or the presence of surface structures associated with both contour currents and mass flow processes shows that both processes act at the same location. Finally, contour currents have an important impact on the repartition of deep‐water coral mounds. Currents can actively interact with mounds as a nutrient and oxygen supplier or have a passive interaction, with mounds solely being obstacles orienting erosion and deposition. 相似文献

This study presents the first multidecadal and coupled regional simulation of cyclonic activity in the South Pacific. The long-term integration of state-of the art models provides reliable statistics, missing in usual event studies, of air–sea coupling processes controlling tropical cyclone (TC) intensity. The coupling effect is analyzed through comparison of the coupled model with a companion forced experiment. Cyclogenesis patterns in the coupled model are closer to observations with reduced cyclogenesis in the Coral Sea. This provides novel evidence of air–sea coupling impacting not only intensity but also spatial cyclogenesis distribution. Storm-induced cooling and consequent negative feedback is stronger for regions of shallow mixed layers and thin or absent barrier layers as in the Coral Sea. The statistical effect of oceanic mesoscale eddies on TC intensity (crossing over them 20 % of the time) is also evidenced. Anticyclonic eddies provide an insulating effect against storm-induced upwelling and mixing and appear to reduce sea surface temperature (SST) cooling. Cyclonic eddies on the contrary tend to promote strong cooling, particularly through storm-induced upwelling. Air–sea coupling is shown to have a significant role on the intensification process but the sensitivity of TCs to SST cooling is nonlinear and generally lower than predicted by thermodynamic theories: about 15 rather than over 30 hPa °C?1 and only for strong cooling. The reason is that the cooling effect is not instantaneous but accumulated over time within the TC inner-core. These results thus contradict the classical evaporation-wind feedback process as being essential to intensification and rather emphasize the role of macro-scale dynamics. 相似文献
