Sedimentary iron monosulfides: Kinetics and mechanism of formation     

Albert J Pyzik  Sheldon E Sommer 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1981,45(5):687-698

The reaction between hydrous iron oxides and aqueous sulfide species was studied at estuarine conditions of pH, total sulfide, and ionic strength to determine the kinetics and formation mechanism of the initial iron sulfide. Total, dissolved and acid extractable sulfide, thiosulfate, sulfate, and elemental sulfur were determined by spectrophotometric methods. Polysulfides, S₄^2? and S₅^2?, were determined from ultraviolet absorbance measurements and equilibrium calculations, while product hydroxyl ion was determined from pH measurements and solution buffer capacity.Elemental sulfur, as free and polysulfide sulfur, was 86% of the sulfide oxidation products; the remainder was thiosulfate. Rate expressions for the reduction and precipitation reactions were determined from analysis of electron balance and acid extractable iron monosulfide vs time, respectively, by the initial rate method. The rate of iron reduction in moles/liter/minute was given by $\text{d(}\text{reduction}\text{Fe)}\text{dt}\text{= kS}{}_{\mathrm{t}}{}^{0.5}\text{(J}{}^{\mathrm{+}}\text{)}{}^{0.5}\text{A}{}_{\mathrm{FeOOH}}{}^1$ where S_t was the total dissolved sulfide concentration, (H⁺) the hydrogen ion activity, both in moles/ liter; and A_FeOOH the goethite specific surface area in square meters/liter. The rate constant, k, was 0.017 ± 0.002m^?2 min^?1. The rate of reduction was apparently determined by the rate of dissolution of the surface layer of ferrous hydroxide. The rate expression for the precipitation reaction was $\text{d(FeS)}\text{dt}\text{= kS}{}_{\mathrm{t}}{}^1\text{(H}{}^{\mathrm{+}}\text{)}{}^1\text{A}{}_{\mathrm{FeOOH}}{}^1$ where $\text{d(FeS)}\text{dt}$ was the rate of precipitation of acid extractable iron monosulfide in moles/liter/minute, and k = 82 ± 18 mol^?1l²m^?2 min^?1.A model is proposed with the following steps: protonation of goethite surface layer; exchange of bisulfide for hydroxide in the mobile layer; reduction of surface ferric ions of goethite by dissolved bisulfide species which produces ferrous hydroxide surface layer elemental sulfur and thiosulfate; dissolution of surface layer of ferrous hydroxide; and precipitation of dissolved ferrous specie and aqueous bisulfide ion.  相似文献   

Riffentwicklung im oberostalpinen Malm     

Alois Fenninger 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1967,56(1):171-185

Zusammenfassung Die Plassenkalke s. 1. des oberostalpinen Malm stellen von echten Riffen weitgehend unabhängige Flachwasserbänke entsprechend der Bahama-Bank dar. Ihr mikrofazieller Charakter wird vor allem an der Ausbildung der Plassen- und Tressensteinkalke der Typuslokalitäten erläutert.

The Plassen limestones s. 1. of the upper-eastalpine Malm represent banks deposited in shallow water, independent of genuine reefs, and are similar to the Bahama Bank. Their microfacial character will be explained by examining the structure of the Plassen and Tressenstein limestones of the type localities.

Résumé Les calcaires du Plassen s. 1. du Malm du « Oberostalpin» représentent des bancs d'eau peu profonde pareils à la « Bahama Bank». Ils sont largement indépendants de vrais récifs. Leur aspect microfaciel s'explique surtout à l'exemple des calcaires du Plassen et du Tressenstein des localités de type.

Seismic behavior of asymmetric RC wall buildings: principles and new deformation‐based design method     

Alois Sommer  Hugo Bachmann 《地震工程与结构动力学》2005,34(2):101-124

The seismic design of multi‐story buildings asymmetric in plan yet regular in elevation and stiffened with ductile RC structural walls is addressed. A realistic modeling of the non‐linear ductile behavior of the RC walls is considered in combination with the characteristics of the dynamic torsional response of asymmetric buildings. Design criteria such as the determination of the system ductility, taking into account the location and ductility demand of the RC walls, the story‐drift demand at the softer (most displaced) edge of the building under the design earthquake, the allowable ductility (ultimate limit state) and the allowable story‐drift (performance goals) are discussed. The definition of an eccentricity of the earthquake‐equivalent lateral force is proposed and used to determine the effective displacement profile of the building yet not the strength distribution under the design earthquake. Furthermore, an appropriate procedure is proposed to calculate the fundamental frequency and the earthquake‐equivalent lateral force. A new deformation‐based seismic design method taking into account the characteristics of the dynamic torsional response, the ductility of the RC walls, the system ductility and the story‐drift at the softer (most displaced) edge of the building is presented and illustrated with an example of seismic design of a multi‐story asymmetric RC wall building.

Variations of the geomagnetic field at the time of reversals     

Alois Kočí  Reviewer A. Janáčková 《Studia Geophysica et Geodaetica》1985,29(3):280-289

Summary Paleomagnetic investigations of sediments from the Early Quaternary enabled the variations of the geomagnetic field during reversals to be studied. Regularities in the motion of the virtual geomagnetic N paleopole and the related changes in the intensity of the geomagnetic field were determined. The initial phase of the reversal, which took place in the Eastern Hemisphere, is accompanied by an increase in the intensity of the geomagnetic field. A strong decrease occurred at the time the N paleopole was moving around30°N geographic latitude. After the irreversible reversal had been concluded, the intensity of the geomagnetic field stabilized at values corresponding to the field intensity prior to the reversal. The reversible reversal is accompanied by an repeated increase in the itensity of the geomagnetic field.

Eddy covariance measurements of carbon dioxide,latent and sensible energy fluxes above a meadow on a mountain slope     

Albin Hammerle  Alois Haslwanter  Michael Schmitt  Michael Bahn  Ulrike Tappeiner  Alexander Cernusca  Georg Wohlfahrt 《Boundary-Layer Meteorology》2007,122(2):397-416

Carbon dioxide, latent and sensible heat fluxes were measured by means of the eddy covariance method above a mountain meadow situated on a steep slope in the Stubai Valley in Austria, based on the hypothesis that, due to the low canopy height, measurements can be made in the shallow equilibrium layer where the wind field exhibits characteristics akin to level terrain. In order to test the validity of this hypothesis and to identify effects of complex terrain in the turbulence measurements, data were subjected to a rigorous testing procedure using a series of quality control measures established for surface-layer flows. The resulting high quality dataset comprised 36% of the original observations, the substantial reduction being mainly due to a change in surface roughness and associated fetch limitations in the wind sector dominating during nighttime and transition periods. The validity of the high quality dataset was further assessed by two independent tests: (i) a comparison with the net ecosystem carbon dioxide exchange measured by means of ecosystem chambers, and (ii) the ability of the eddy covariance measurements to close the energy balance. The net ecosystem CO₂ exchange measured by the eddy covariance method agreed reasonably well with ecosystem chamber measurements. The assessment of the energy balance closure showed that there was no significant difference in the correspondence between the meadow on the slope and another one situated on flat ground at the bottom of the Stubai Valley, available energy being underestimated by 28% and 29%, respectively. We thus conclude that, appropriate quality control provided, the eddy covariance measurements made above a mountain meadow on a steep slope are of similar quality as compared to flat terrain.  相似文献

Water Quality Co-Effects of Greenhouse Gas Mitigation in U.S. Agriculture     

Subhrendu?K.?PattanayakEmail author  Bruce?A.?McCarl  Allan?J.?Sommer  Brian?C.?Murray  Timothy?Bondelid  Dhazn?Gillig  Benjamin?DeAngelo 《Climatic change》2005,71(3):341-372

This study develops first-order estimates of water quality co-effects of terrestrial greenhouse gas (GHG) emission offset strategies in U.S. agriculture by linking a national level agricultural sector model (ASMGHG) to a national level water quality model (NWPCAM). The simulated policy scenario considers GHG mitigation incentive payments of $25 and $50 per tonne, carbon equivalent to landowners for reducing emissions or enhancing the sequestration of GHG through agricultural and land-use practices. ASMGHG projects that these GHG price incentives could induce widespread conversion of agricultural to forested lands, along with alteration of tillage practices, crop mix on land remaining in agriculture, and livestock management. This study focuses on changes in cropland use and management. The results indicate that through agricultural cropland about 60 to 70 million tonnes of carbon equivalent (MMTCE) emissions can be mitigated annually in the U.S. These responses also lead to a 2% increase in aggregate national water quality, with substantial variation across regions. Such GHG mitigation activities are found to reduce annual nitrogen loadings into the Gulf of Mexico by up to one half of the reduction goals established by the national Watershed Nutrient Task Force for addressing the hypoxia problem.  相似文献   

Organochlorine and mecury concetrations in eggs of grey plovers (Pluvialis squatarola) breeding in the Lena Dlta, north-east Sibveria, 1997     

Klaus-Michael Exo  Pete H. Becker  Ute Sommer 《Polar research》2000,19(2):261-265

Seven eggs from four clutches of grey plovers ( Pluvialis squatarola ) breeding in the Lena Delta, Sakha Republic, Yakutia, in 1997 were analysed for persistent organochlorines and mercury. Contamination levels were low and within the same range as found in eggs from waders (Charadriiformes) breeding in north-west Europe. One exception was ∑HCH, averaging 99.2 ng g⁻¹ fresh egg mass, a level about ten times higher than in wader eggs from north-west Europe. β-HCH accounted for 98% of the total HCH concentration. There are indications that the pesticide levels may reflect former local use. ∑PCB level (57.0 ng g⁻¹, 62 congeners) and mercury concentration (68.7 ng g⁻¹) can be considered low.  相似文献   

Ammonium,nitrate and phytoplankton interactions in a freshwater tidal estuarine zone: potential effects of cultural eutrophication   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2

Nitrate and ammonium are the most important nitrogen sources for phytoplankton growth. Differential utilization of inorganic nitrogenous compounds by phytoplankton has been observed and may have significant impacts on primary productivity at local scales. We used enrichment experiments with natural phytoplankton populations from the freshwater tidal zone of the Guadiana estuary, a coastal ecosystem increasingly subjected to anthropogenic influences, to study the effects of nitrate and ammonium on N-consumption and phytoplankton growth. In addition, we used combined additions of nitrate and ammonium to understand the inhibitory effect of ammonium over nitrate uptake. Ammonium concentrations in the freshwater tidal reaches of the Guadiana estuary throughout the sampling period were too low to exert an inhibitory effect on nitrate uptake or a toxic effect on phytoplankton growth. Nitrate was clearly the main nitrogen source for phytoplankton at the study site. Overall, nitrate seemed to become limiting at concentrations lower than 20 μM and N-limitation was particularly significant during summer. A trend of decreasing nitrate uptake with increasing ammonium concentrations and uptake suggested an overall preference for ammonium. However, preference for ammonium was group-specific, and it was observed mainly in green algae and cyanobacteria. In fact, cyanobacteria relied only on ammonium as their N-source. On the contrary, diatoms preferred nitrate, and did not respond to ammonium additions. The increasing eutrophication in the Guadiana estuary and particularly increased inputs of nitrogen as ammonium due to urban waste effluents may result in a shift in phytoplankton community composition, towards a dominance of cyanobacteria and green algae.  相似文献
