Trace element partition coefficients (D's) for up to 13 REE, Nb, Ta, Zr, Hf, Sr and Y have been determined by SIMS analysis of seven garnets, four clinopyroxenes, one orthopyroxene and one phlogopite crystallized from an undoped basanite and a lightly doped (200 ppm Nb, Ta and Hf) quartz tholeiite. Experiments were conducted at 2–7.5 GPa, achieving near-liquidus crystallization at relatively low temperatures of 1080–1200°C under strongly hydrous conditions (5–27 wt.% added water). Garnet and pyroxene DREE show a parabolic pattern when plotted against ionic radius, and conform closely to the lattice strain model of Blundy and Wood (Blundy, J.D., Wood, B.J., 1994. Prediction of crystal–melt partition coefficients from elastic moduli. Nature 372, 452–454). Comparison, at constant pressure, between hydrous and anhydrous values of the strain-free partition coefficient (D0) for the large cation sites of garnet and clinopyroxene reveals the relative importance of temperature and melt water content on partitioning. In the case of garnet, the effect of lower temperature, which serves to increase D0, and higher water content, which serves to decrease D0, counteract each other to the extent that water has little effect on garnet–melt D0 values. In contrast, the effect of water on clinopyroxene–melt D0 overwhelms the effect of temperature, such that D0 is significantly lower under hydrous conditions. For both minerals, however, the lower temperature of the hydrous experiments tends to tighten the partitioning parabolas, increasing fractionation of light from heavy REE compared to anhydrous experiments.
Three sets of near-liquidus clinopyroxene–garnet two-mineral D values increase the range of published experimental determinations, but show significant differences from natural two-mineral D's determined for subsolidus mineral pairs. Similar behaviour is observed for the first experimental data for orthopyroxene–clinopyroxene two-mineral D's when compared with natural data. These differences are in large part of a consequence of the subsolidus equilibration temperatures and compositions of natural mineral pairs. Great care should therefore be taken when using natural mineral–mineral partition coefficients to interpret magmatic processes.
The new data for strongly hydrous compositions suggest that fractionation of Zr–Hf–Sm by garnet decreases with increasing depth. Thus, melts leaving a garnet-dominated residuum at depths of about 200 km or greater may preserve source Zr/Hf and Hf/Sm. This contrasts with melting at shallower depths where both garnet and clinopyroxene will cause Zr–Hf–Sm fractionation. Also, at shallower depths, clinopyroxene-dominated fractionation may produce a positive Sr spike in melts from spinel lherzolite, but for garnet lherzolite melting, no Sr spike will result. Conversely, clinopyroxene megacrysts with negative Sr spikes may crystallize from magmas without anomalous Sr contents when plotted on mantle compatibility diagrams. Because the characteristics of strongly hydrous silicate melt and solute-rich aqueous fluid converge at high pressure, the hydrous data presented here are particularly pertinent to modelling processes in subduction zones, where aqueous fluids may have an important metasomatic role. 相似文献
This paper presents a time integration scheme capable of simulating blast loading of relatively high frequency on porous media, using coarse meshes. The scheme is based on the partition of unity finite element method. The discontinuity is imposed on the velocity field, while the displacement field is kept continuous. The velocity discontinuity is postulated to occur in the time domain. The developed time integration scheme is unconditionally stable and has controllable numerical dissipation in the high frequency range. An important feature of the time scheme is that it allows for controlling the numerical damping in a consistent way. The time scheme has been implemented in combination with Biot’s theory of wave propagation in saturated porous media. Numerical examples have demonstrated that the proposed time scheme is, in addition to being accurate and stable, highly effective for coarse meshes. This makes the developed scheme suitable for large scale finite element analysis. 相似文献
Despite the growing interest for Li and B as geochemical tracers, especially for material transfer from subducting slabs to
overlying peridotites, little is known about the behaviour of these two elements during partial melting of mantle sources.
In particular, mineral/melt partition coefficients for B and to a lesser extent Li are still a matter of debate. In this work,
we re-equilibrated a synthetic basalt doped with ~10 ppm B and ~6 ppm Li with an olivine powder from a spinel lherzolite xenolith
at 1 GPa–1,330°C, and we analyzed Li and B in the run products by secondary ion mass spectrometry (SIMS). In our experiment,
B behaved as a highly incompatible element with mineral/melt partition coefficients of the order of 10−2 (Dol/melt = 0.008 (0.004–0.013); Dopx/melt = 0.024 (0.015–0.033); Dcpx/melt = 0.041 (0.021–0.061)), and Li as a moderately incompatible element (Dol/melt = 0.427 (0.418–0.436); Dopx/melt = 0.211 (0.167–0.256); Dcpx/melt = 0.246 (0.229–0.264)). Our partition coefficients for Li are in good agreement with previous determinations. In the case
of B, our partition coefficients are equal within error to those reported by Brenan et al. (1998) for all the mineral phases analyzed, but are lower than other coefficients from literature for some of the phases (up to
5 times for cpx). Our measurements complement the data set of Ds for modelling partial melting of the upper mantle and basalt generation, and confirm that, in this context, B is more incompatible
than previously anticipated. 相似文献
The speciation and amount of water dissolved in nominally anhydrous silicates comprising eight different mantle xenoliths
has been quantified using synchrotron micro-FTIR spectroscopy. Samples studied are from six geographic localities and represent
a cross-section of the major upper mantle lithologies from a variety of tectonic settings. Clinopyroxene contains between
342 and 413 ppm H2O. Orthopyroxene, olivine and garnet contain 169–201, 3–54 and 0 to <3 ppm H2O, respectively. Pyroxenes water contents and the distribution of water between ortho- and clinopyroxene is identical regardless
of sample mineralogy (Dwatercpx/opx = 2.1 ± 0.1). The total water contents of each xenolith are remarkably similar (113 ± 14 ppm H2O). High-resolution spectroscopic traverses show that the concentration and speciation of hydrous defects dissolved in each
phase are spatially homogeneous within individual crystals and identical in different crystals interspersed throughout the
xenolith. These results suggest that the amount of water dissolved in the silicate phases is in partial equilibrium with the
transporting melt. Other features indicate that xenoliths have also preserved OH signatures of equilibrium with the mantle
source region: Hydroxyl stretching modes in clinopyroxene show that garnet lherzolites re-equilibrated under more reducing
conditions than spinel lherzolites. The distribution of water between pyroxenes and olivine differs according to xenolith
mineralogy. The distribution of water between clinopyroxene and olivine from garnet peridotites (Dwatercpx/oliv(gnt) = 22.2 ± 24.1) is a factor of four greater than mineral pairs from spinel-bearing xenoliths (Dwatercpx/oliv(sp) = 88.1 ± 47.8). Such an increase in olivine water contents at the spinel to garnet transition is likely a global phenomenon
and this discontinuity could lead to a reduction of the upper mantle viscosity by 0.2–0.7 log units and a reduction of its
electrical resistivity by a factor of 0.5–0.8 log units. 相似文献
Noble gases were studied in six wells, located on a 4.5 km south to north section across the Larderello field. Depth of wells, flow and gas/steam ratios are known to increase from south to north. Exploitation progressed in the same direction. The following noble gas patterns are observable: (a) Atmospheric Ar, Kr and Xe reflect productions of gas-depleted water at Colombaia 2 and progressively more gas-enriched steam towards the Gabbro wells. (b) Radiogenic4He and40Ar are observed in increasing concentrations from south to north. (c) The radiogenic and atmospheric gases reveal a positive correlation, indicating that the recharging water enters deep into the system, and gets well mixed with the radiogenic gases prior to the steam separation. (d) Gas contents and relative abundances of radiogenic argon decrease with production, thus supplying markers for the degree of exploitation in a well and a guide for optimum well spacing. (e) Excess neon over argon is observed and discussed in terms of crustal origin versus possible fractionation of atmospheric noble gases due to pertial steam separation. 相似文献
Retardation parameters (Rf) for sulfolane and thioalne were estimated using reference values and experimentally as they were mainly observed at an aquifer
underneath a waste disposal site near Brisbane, Australia. Three soil aquifer materials e.g. clay, silty clay and sand were
used as sorbents. At first, Rf was obtained employing Koc–Kow and solubility parameter, respectively, while experimental coefficients were determined from both batch and flow-through
column tests. Additionally, Rf was observed at a single- and bi-solute system through the column test. There was not found any significant difference in
Rf between Koc–Kow and solubility parameters, but the retardation coefficient was significantly dependent on organic carbon content for solubility
parameter. In contrast, using Koc–Kow, the coefficient correspondingly varied with an amount of clay content contained in each soil. In the same manner, the batch-determined
parameters were more subject to clay content. On the other hand, the column-determined parameters can be comparable with the
desk-derived values. In a bi-solute system, they did not influence each other concerning retardation coefficients while they
flew though the column simultaneously. It was concluded that there was a large discrepancy in retardation coefficient of batch-
against both reference-oriented estimation and column-determined values.
