This study examines the distribution of leachable particulate iron (Fe) in the Columbia River, estuary, and near-field plume. Surface samples were collected during late spring and summer of 2004–2006 as part of four River Influence on Shelf Ecosystems (RISE) cruises. Tidal amplitude and river flow are the primary factors influencing the estuary leachable particulate Fe concentrations, with greater values during high flow and/or spring tides. Near the mouth of the estuary, leachable particulate Fe [defined as the particulate Fe solubilized with a 25% acetic acid (pH 2) leach containing a weak reducing agent to reduce Fe oxyhydroxides and a short heating step to access intracellular Fe] averaged 770 nM during either spring tide or high flow, compared to 320 nM during neap tide, low flow conditions. In the near-field Columbia River plume, elevated leachable particulate Fe concentrations occur during spring tides and/or higher river flow, with resuspended shelf sediment as an additional source to the plume during periods of coastal upwelling and spring tides. Near-field plume concentrations of leachable particulate Fe (at a salinity of 20) averaged 660 nM during either spring tide or high flow, compared to 300 nM during neap tide, low flow conditions. Regardless of tidal amplitude and river flow, leachable particulate Fe concentrations in both the river/estuary and near-field plume are consistently one to two orders of magnitude greater than dissolved Fe concentrations. The Columbia River is an important source of reactive Fe to the productive coastal waters off Oregon and Washington, and leachable particulate Fe is available for solubilization following biological drawdown of the dissolved phase. Elevated leachable Fe concentrations allow coastal waters influenced by the Columbia River plume to remain Fe-replete and support phytoplankton production during the spring and summer seasons.  相似文献

蒙库铁矿床被认为是与海底喷流沉积作用有关的铁矿床,但存在很大的争议.文章将其与典型的喷流沉积型铁矿--镜铁山铁矿床对比,并结合野外的第一手资料,发现蒙库铁矿床的喷流沉积特征并不明显,而热液成矿作用比较明显,但是热液的性质和来源、成矿时间等尚不明了,蒙库铁矿的成因机理仍有待深入研究.  相似文献   

The importance of iron speciation (Fe+2/Fe+3) in determining mineral assemblages: an example from the high‐grade aluminous metapelites of southeastern Madagascar     

S. D. BOGER  R. W. WHITE  B. SCHULTE 《Journal of Metamorphic Geology》2012,30(9):997-1018

Metapelitic granulites from the Anosyen domain of southeastern Madagascar are exposed in three intercalated formations: the Amparihy, Bakika and Ihosy formations. Although mineralogically distinct from each other, the rocks from these formations show very similar bulk‐rock compositions when measured on a Fe_T basis. The preserved mineral assemblages thus do not reflect differences in the ratios of the main rock‐forming oxides (i.e. Al₂O₃:Fe_T:MgO), but instead reflect variations in the pre‐metamorphic oxidation state of the protolith rocks. These differences in oxidation state are manifested via differences in iron speciation – either Fe⁺² or Fe⁺³. The relatively reduced rocks of the Amparihy Formation preserve the assemblage bi–sp–sill–g–cd, which contrasts markedly with the mostly garnet and spinel‐absent bi–cd–sill–mt assemblages preserved in the strongly oxidized rocks of the Ihosy Formation. Compositionally intermediate rocks of the Bakika Formation are garnet bearing, but sillimanite‐absent, and contain the assemblage sp–g–cd–mag. Modelling of these rocks in the Na₂O–CaO–K₂O–FeO–MgO–Al₂O₃–SiO₂–H₂O–TiO₂–O system suggests that they evolved along a heating and cooling P–T path with only limited decompression accompanying cooling on the retrograde path. Peak temperatures and pressures of ～880–920 °C and 6–6.5 kbar are inferred for the majority of the Anosyen domain, with slightly lower peak temperatures (～840 °C) estimated in the extreme northwest of the area. The high‐temperature and relatively low‐pressure nature of metamorphism suggests high geothermal gradients existed during orogenesis, which in southern Madagascar is related to the amalgamation of Gondwana (580–520 Ma). Although metamorphic temperatures may have been augmented via thermal advection from the emplacement of the syn‐ to post‐tectonic Ambalavao suite, the high geothermal gradients nevertheless suggest thin and consequently hot lithosphere existed prior to orogenesis.  相似文献   

An analytical solution for describing the transient temperature distribution in an aquifer thermal energy storage system     

Kuang‐Yi Li  Shaw‐Yang Yang  Hund‐Der Yeh 《水文研究》2010,24(25):3676-3688

A mathematical model is developed for predicting the temperature distribution in an aquifer thermal energy storage (ATES) system, which consists of a confined aquifer bounded from above and below by the rocks of different geological properties. The main transfer processes of heat include the conduction and advection in the aquifer and the conduction in the rocks. The semi‐analytical solution in dimensionless form for the model is developed by Laplace transforms and its corresponding time‐domain solution is evaluated by the modified Crump method. Field geothermal property data are used to simulate the temperature distribution in an ATES system. The results show that the heat transfer in the aquifer is fast and has a vast effect on the vicinity of the wellbore. However, the aquifer temperature decreases with increasing radial and vertical distances. The temperature in the aquifer may be overestimated when ignoring the effect of thermal conductivity. The temperature distribution in an ATES system depends on the vertical thermal conduction in the rocks and the horizontal advection and thermal conduction in the aquifer. The present solution is useful in designing and simulating the heat injection facility in the ATES systems. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

Sunrise Hill unconformity: A newly discovered regional hiatus between Archaean granites and greenstones in the northeastern Pilbara Craton     

P. R. Dawes  R. H. Smithies  J. Centofanti  D. C. Podmore 《Australian Journal of Earth Sciences》2013,60(6):635-639

Contacts between Archaean granites and greenstones in the northeastern part of the Pilbara Craton have been described as intrusive and tectonic. New field observations in the Shay Gap region demonstrate that greenstones of the Gorge Creek Group unconformably overlie the Muccan and Warrawagine batholiths. Regionally, the unconformity is marked by a persistent but relatively thin basal clastic sequence, locally with a granite boulder conglomerate, overlain by ore‐bearing banded iron‐formation, fine‐grained clastic rocks and chert. The granite basement is dated at 3443 ± 6 Ma. The precise age of the hiatus is unknown but its maximum effect might have been the removal of a substantial thickness of Early to Middle Archaean strata.  相似文献   

Improving kriging of groundwater level data using nonlinear normalizing transformations—a field application     

E.A. Varouchakis  G.P. Karatzas 《水文科学杂志》2013,58(7):1404-1419

Abstract

The present research study investigates the application of nonlinear normalizing data transformations in conjunction with ordinary kriging (OK) for the accurate prediction of groundwater level spatial variability in a sparsely-gauged basin. We investigate three established normalizing methods, Gaussian anamorphosis, trans-Gaussian kriging and the Box-Cox method to improve the estimation accuracy. The first two are applied for the first time to groundwater level data. All three methods improve the mean absolute prediction error compared to the application of OK to the non-transformed data. In addition, a modified Box-Cox transformation is proposed and applied to normalize the hydraulic heads. The modified Box-Cox transformation in conjunction with OK is found to be the optimal spatial model based on leave-one-out cross-validation. The recently established Spartan semivariogram family provides the optimal model fit to the transformed data. Finally, we present maps of the groundwater level and the kriging variance based on the optimal spatial model.

Iron porphyrins in the Permian Kupferschiefer of the lower Rhine Basin, N.W. Germany     

C. B. Eckardt  M. Wolf  J. R. Maxwell 《Organic Geochemistry》1989,14(6)

Immature samples of the Permian Kupferschiefer from the Lower Rhine Basin in N.W. Germany were analysed for tetrapyrrole pigment type and abundance. The sediment, thought to have been deposited in a marine regime with enhanced salinity, was found to contain high concentrations of metalloporphyrins. The porphyrins are complexed to nickel (Ni) and oxovanadium (V=0), but high abundances of iron (Fe) porphyrins were also detected using UV/visible spectroscopy and mass spectrometry. The presence in the latter of series of aetioporphyrins, cycloalkanoporphyrins, di-cycloalkanoporphyrins and benz-cycloalkanoporphyrins was confirmed by accurate mass measurements; HPLC co-injection of deoxophylloerythroetioporphyrin (C₃₂ DPEP) with the demetallated iron porphyrins indicated its presence in the sediment as an iron complex. The study provides the first evidence for the occurrence of Fe porphyrins in geological samples other than coals and lignites, and reports the highest concentrations in sedimentary organic matter to date.  相似文献   

游离氧化铁形态转化对红粘土工程性质的影响   总被引：6，自引：5，他引：6

本文通过模拟环境中的有机质使游离氧化铁形态转化对典型红粘土工程性质的影响试验,系统地测试了游离氧化铁的形态分布与物性指标的关系。试验结果表明,在渍水条件下,游离氧化铁的形态转化对红粘土性质的影响不显著,但在渗水条件下,由于游离氧化铁的流失使得胶结作用减弱,它对红粘土工程性质的影响逐渐明显,其潜在的危害仍然是不容忽视的。  相似文献
