Flow processes and sedimentation in unidirectionally migrating deep‐water channels: From a three‐dimensional seismic perspective          下载免费PDF全文

Three‐dimensional seismic data were used to infer how bottom currents control unidirectional channel migration. Bottom currents flowing towards the steep bank would deflect the upper part of sediment gravity flows at an orientation of 1° to 11° to the steep bank, yielding a helical flow circulation consisting of a faster near‐surface flow towards the steep bank and a slower basal return flow towards the gentle bank. This helical flow model is evidenced by the occurrence of bigger, muddier (suggested by low‐amplitude seismic reflections) lateral accretion deposits and gentle channel wall with downlap terminations on the gentle bank and by smaller, sandier (indicated by high‐amplitude seismic reflectors) channel fills and steep channel walls with truncation terminations on the steep bank. This helical flow circulation promotes asymmetrical depositional patterns with dipping accretion sets restricted to the gentle bank, which restricts the development of sinuosity and yields unidirectional channel migration. These results aid in obtaining a complete picture of flow processes and sedimentation in submarine channels.  相似文献

胶北粉子山群石榴云母片岩的三叠纪独居石年龄及其地质意义   总被引：2，自引：2，他引：0

胶北地块粉子山群石榴云母片岩中石榴石变斑晶内包裹物迹线明显,保留了岩石形成过程中的多期变质变形信息。电子探针成分面扫描图显示石榴石成分环带明显,可分为核部、幔部和边部。石榴石中MgO、FeO、MnO和CaO含量变化特征表明其核部到边部温度先升高后降低,对应进变质及退变质过程。根据原位独居石Y元素成分面扫描图显示,部分独居石颗粒由核部到边部Y含量呈现逐渐降低趋势,说明测得的232.6±1.1Ma~229.5±3.7Ma的独居石U-Pb年龄,对应石榴石的进变质生长过程。结合1869±72Ma的锆石U-Pb年龄数据,可推断粉子山群石榴云母片岩至少经历了古元古代及三叠纪两期变质事件的改造。粉子山群石榴云母片岩卷入了苏鲁超高压变质带的俯冲碰撞造山事件。电子探针成分分析结果表明粉子山群石榴云母片岩中的石榴石属于铁铝榴石,反映出经受中级区域变质作用的特征。说明粉子山群石榴云母片岩虽然参与了三叠纪苏鲁超高压变质带的俯冲碰撞造山过程,但俯冲深度较浅。这可用大陆俯冲过程中上盘的俯冲剥蚀来解释,并可为陆-陆碰撞俯冲剥蚀模式提出的扬子板片在240~220Ma的深俯冲作用过程中拽动胶北地块向下俯冲又折返的运动过程提供佐证,但胶北地块是否经历了深俯冲超高压变质作用,还需要进一步验证。  相似文献   

Testing for Sediment Acidification Effects on Within-Season Variability in Juvenile Soft-Shell Clam (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Mya arenaria</Emphasis>) Abundance on the Northern Shore of the Bay of Fundy

Soft-shell clams (Mya arenaria) can serve important ecological roles in intertidal mudflats and are an important economic and recreational resource in the northwestern Atlantic. However, environmental factors affecting newly-settled and juvenile clam abundances within a given settlement season remain uncertain. We conducted a field study assessing relationships between juvenile soft-shell clam abundance and spatial, temporal, and environmental variables in coastal mudflats of the northern shore of the Bay of Fundy. Sediment pH and low-tide water temperature (tide pools) were monitored in situ on a biweekly–monthly basis over the course of the M. arenaria settlement season in 2012 at four study sites to quantify diel variation in sediment pH and temperature. Core samples were also collected to quantify M. arenaria (<6 mm) abundance. Sea-surface and air temperature, and in situ sediment pH and water temperature were then used to predict clam abundance. Sediment pH was spatially and temporally variable, while in situ temperature was stable and declined over the sampling season. Akaike’s information criterion model selection indicated that models incorporating site, date, and air temperature best predicted 2012 recruitment patterns in linear models when all variables were included. When only environmental variables were included, the best linear model included minimum air temperature and sediment pH. When data were averaged across dates for each site to remove potential temporal effects, mean clam abundance displayed a significant positive relationship with sediment pH and sediment grain size, but not minimum air temperature. The results of this study suggest that sediment pH and/or sediment grain size may influence within-season juvenile soft-shell clam abundances across mudflats in the Bay of Fundy. Field experiments at the same (or similar) sites are now needed to confirm the mechanism driving the observed relationships.  相似文献   

Sectoral Composition and Spatial Distribution of Department of Defense Services Procurement*     

Jeff R. Crump 《The Professional geographer》1993,45(3):286-296

The purpose of this research is to analyze the composition and distribution of Department of Defense (DOD) services procurement. The results indicate producer services comprise 53% of DOD services outlays. Defense expenditures for services are particularly important in the Washington, D.C., region and in states that either produce weapons or house defense-related R&D facilities. Defense expenditures are providing impetus to service sector growth in Virginia and, simultaneously, are providing the initial stimulus for development of producer services in states such as New Mexico.  相似文献   

Palaeoenvironmental interpretation of fluvial red beds by statistical analysis of palaeocurrent data: Examples from the buntsandstein (lower triassic) of the eifel and bavaria in the German basin (middle Europe)     

Detlef Mader  Thomas Teyssen 《Sedimentary Geology》1984,41(1):1-74

Palaeocurrent data from parts of the Upper Buntsandstein (Lower Triassic) of both the western (Eifel: Kyllburg-Schichten) and eastern (Bavaria: Plattensandstein) margin of the German Triassic Basin (Middle Europe) have been interpreted by circular directional statistics, eigenvalue and eigenvector analysis, autocorrelation analysis and vector trend analysis. Examination of current roses, histograms of normalized vector magnitudes and plots, of circular skewness of the distribution vs. circular kurtosis, together with the palaeocurrent plots indicate bimodal palaeocurrent distributions with bipolar orientations within long, short and very short sedimentary sequences. Subset I of the directional data is interpreted to represent larger, more continuous flows in a high-energy regime of probably perennial type, whereas subset II may represent smaller, partially episodic flows of probably ephemeral type with larger variability in direction and flow regime; transport and sedimentation rates being significantly smaller than during deposition of subset I. A part of the bimodal palaeocurrent distributions within short sedimentary sequences fits rather well into the general transport pattern. Other bipolarities are primarily interpreted as effects of superimposition of channels of different orientations as well as of main channels and crevasse-splay channels, and condensation of deposition from discontinuous or episodic flows. The main mechanism creating the vertical succession of various directions is stacking of different substratum members to multistorey complexes by primary-depositional restriction of formation and/or secondary-erosional removal of topstratum sediments. The occasional occurrence of herring-bone cross-stratification representing bipolarities within very short depositional sequences, testifies to probably episodic and random changes in water surface slopes allowing currents to reverse locally. Examination of long sedimentary sequences by autocorrelation analysis reveals changes of transport directions with time in a sinusoidal manner, indicating a conformable environmental development of the alluvial watercourses which reflects a time-cyclic trend of sedimentation by spatially continuous and time-concordant shifting of the channel system. The results of the statistical analysis enable an enhanced palaeoenvironmental reconstruction of the alluvial network which fits best to a transitional meandering-thalweg-braided channel pattern. Comparison of the statistical results, especially in the light of vector trend surface analysis, clearly reflects the different palaeogeographic positions of both investigated areas, but rules out only minor influences of regionally different palaeoslopes on the alluvial depositional environment, with the basic principles of fluvial style at the western margin (Eifel) generally matching those at the eastern margin (Bavaria) of the German Basin.  相似文献
