The paper presents data on lechatelierite form suevites of the Daldyn Formation in the Popigai astrobleme. Some of the lechatelierite samples show a complicated structure and contain block of diaplectic quartz glass and dynamic “intrusions” of glasses of types I, II, and III. The glasses of types I and II abound in fluid inclusions and display evidence of partial homogenization with lechatelierite. The glasses of type III are clearly separated from all other glasses but show evidence of dynamic interaction with them in the molten state. Fluid inclusions in the glasses of types I and II are syngenetic but have notably different densities from those of completely liquid or gaseous inclusions at 20°C. As is indicated by cryometric data, the liquid phase of the inclusions is aqueous solution of low salinity (5–8 wt % NaCl_equiv). The bulk petrochemistry of the glasses of type I characterizes them as highly silicic (96.04 wt % SiO₂ on average), with elevated K and Na concentrations (Na₂O + K₂O = 0.72 wt % on average), with 0.73 wt % Al₂O₃ (on average) and analytical totals 1.97 wt % less than 100%. The glasses of type II are also rich in SiO₂ (91.51 wt % SiO₂ on average) but contain a broader spectrum of concentrations of major oxides (totaling 5.53 wt % on average) and deficient analytical totals (by 2.96 wt % on average). The glasses of type III are completely equal to impactites produced by melting gneisses of the Popigai astrobleme. The glasses of type I are interpreted to be the intrusion products of the “early” highly mobile and H₂O-rich fluid+melt mixtures, whose protolithic material was K-Na feldspars of the target rocks. The derivation of these melts was associated with the capturing of much silica and water at a highly mobile behavior of K and Na and an inert behavior of Al. The glasses of type II were produced by the extensive mixing of silica and water at the limited involvement of apogneiss melts, and these glasses are sometimes deficient in Al. The glasses of type III are usual mixed apogneiss melts. Excess silica in the glasses of types I and II and their richness in water and deficiency in Al suggest impact anatexis and the selective separation of components during their derivation; the parental fluid-melt mixtures of these glasses were derived from such “hydrous” varieties of the target gneisses as diaphthorized and fractured rocks. The evolution and partial vitrification of lechatelierite and the glasses of types I and II proceeded under residual shock pressures, as follows from data on the dense (from ∼0.5 to 1 g/cm³) aqueous inclusions in these glasses, which suggest that the inclusions were captured in the glasses under pressures from ∼0.8 to 3.3 GPa. It follows that our lechatelierite samples have a complex multistage genesis, and their quenching facilitated the preservation of “intrusions” of various stages of shock melting, including the products of the “early” impact anatexis of the gneisses with the selective separation of components at the active participation of water.  相似文献   

Verification of cloud cover forecast with INSAT observation over western India     

Shivani Shah  B. M. Rao  Prashant Kumar  P. K. Pal 《Journal of Earth System Science》2010,119(6):775-781

Since the beginning of the summer monsoon 2009, experimental mesoscale weather forecasts in real time are being generated using WRF model by the Meteorology and Oceanography Group at the Space Applications Centre (ISRO) and are disseminated through MOSDAC () to various users. To begin with, the 12 h, 24 h and 48 h forecasts for the western India region are made available. A study is undertaken to comprehensively assess the cloudiness prediction performance of WRF model. The evaluations have been made over the three months period during monsoon 2009. INSAT cloud imagery data has been used as a reference for these evaluations. The verification strategy includes computation of various skill scores. It is seen that probability of detection (POD) of cloud is 84% and the false alarm rate (FAR) is around 18%. It is hoped that this assessment will provide information on the use of these forecasts in various applications.  相似文献

Dissolved Boron in the Tapi,Narmada and the Mandovi Estuaries,the Western Coast of India: Evidence for Conservative Behavior      Satinder Pal Singh  Sunil Kumar Singh  Ravi Bhushan 《Estuaries and Coasts》2014,37(4):1017-1027 The concentrations of dissolved boron have been measured during different seasons in three estuaries, the Tapi, Narmada and the Mandovi situated on the western coast of India, to investigate its geochemical behavior and inputs from the localized anthropogenic pressures of industrial effluents and sewage discharge. The measured boron concentrations in these estuaries (except the Tapi during non-monsoon) at salinity ≤0.1 fall in a narrow range?～?2–4 μmol/kg (average B?～?2.4?±?0.8 μmol/kg) within the reported wide range?～?0.1–18.6 μmol/kg for global rivers. The much higher estimate of boron concentration in the Tapi River during non-monsoon is attributed to its possible additional supply from the sewage and/or industrial effluents discharged along the river course. During monsoon, the rains seem to be a significant source of dissolved boron to all the three rivers. The distribution of dissolved boron in each estuary exhibits a conservative behavior during the seasons sampled suggestive of no measurable addition or removal of boron in the estuarine region. The orders of magnitude differences in boron concentration between the river waters and seawater, and the conservative behavior of dissolved boron indicate that its major contributor to the estuaries sampled is seawater.  相似文献    35. Nonlinear kinetic analysis of phenol adsorption onto peat soil   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1   Supriya Pal  Somnath Mukherjee  Sudipta Ghosh 《Environmental Earth Sciences》2014,71(4):1593-1603 Phenolic compounds are considered as a serious organic pollutant containing in many industrial effluents particularly vulnerable when the plant discharge is disposed on land. In the present study, the phenol removal potential of peat soil as adsorption media was investigated as the adsorption process are gaining popular for polishing treatment of toxic materials in industrial wastewater. Batch experiments were performed in the laboratory to determine the adsorption isotherms of initial concentrations for 5, 8, 10, 15, and 20 mg/L and predetermined quantity of peat soil with size ranges between 425 and 200 μm poured into different containers. The effects of various parameters like initial phenol concentration, adsorbent quantity, pH, and contact time were also investigated. From experimental results, it was found that 42 % of phenol removal took place with optimized initial phenol concentration of 10 mg/L, adsorbent dose of 200 g/L, solution pH 6.0 for the equilibrium contact time of 6 h. The result exhibits that pseudo-first-order (R 2 = 0.99) and Langmuir isotherm models are fitted reasonably (R 2 = 0.91). Adams–Bohart, Thomas, Yoon–Nelson, and Wolborska models were also investigated to the column experimental data of different bed heights to predict the breakthrough curves and to determine the kinetic coefficient of the models using nonlinear regression analysis. It was found that the Thomas model is the best fitted model to predict the experimental breakthrough curves with the highest coefficient of determination, R 2 = 0.99 and lowest root mean square error and mean absolute performance error values.  相似文献    36. Petrogenesis of chromites from the Manipur ophiolite belt,NE India: evidence for a supra-subduction zone setting prior to Indo-Myanmar collision      Tapan Pal  Anindya Bhattacharya  G. Nagendran  N. M. Yanthan  R. Singh  N. Raghumani 《Mineralogy and Petrology》2014,108(5):713-726 The Manipur ophiolite belt within the Western Ophiolite Belt of the Indo-Myanmar Ranges (IMR), consists of tectonised to massive serpentinised peridotite, dunite pods, chromitite pods/lenses, cumulates, dykes, volcanic rocks and pelagic sediments. Chromitite pods and lenses hosted in peridotitic mantle rocks show magmatic textures, post magmatic brecciation and ferritchromitisation. Electron microprobe analyses show two types of massive chromitite, with one group having high-Cr (Cr# 75–76), medium-Al (Al2O3 12.2–12.4 wt%) chromites (Sirohi-type) and the other group (Gamnom-type) having a wide range of compositions with generally lower Cr and higher Al (Cr# 65–71, Al2O3 15.7–19 wt%). Accessory chromites in peridotitic mantle rocks have consistently low Cr (Cr# 38–39) and high Al (Al2O3 34–35 wt%), whereas chromites in dunite pods have intermediate compositions (Cr# ~60; Al2O3 20.7–21.2 wt%). The chromite chemistry suggests moderate (20 %) partial melting of the tectonised mantle harzburgite. The estimated Al2O3melt, (FeO/MgO)melt and TiO2melt for the Sirohi-type chromites indicate boninitic parentage, whereas chromite compositions from the Gamnom area suggest mixed boninitic—island arc tholeiitic magmas. The compositions of magmatic chromites suggest that the Manipur ophiolite was formed in a supra-subduction zone (SSZ) setting.  相似文献    37. Analysis of plasma and field conditions during some intensely geo-effective transient solar/interplanetary disturbances of solar cycle 23      Yatendra Pal Singh  Munendra Singh  Badruddin 《Journal of Astrophysics and Astronomy》2006,27(2-3):361-366 The problem of solar wind-magnetosphere coupling is investigated for intense geomagnetic storms (Dst < -100nT) that occurred during solar cycle 23. For this purpose interplanetary plasma and field data during some intensely geo-effective transient solar/interplanetary disturbances have been analysed. A geomagnetic index that represents the intensity of planetary magnetic activity at subauroral latitude and the other that measures the ring current magnetic field, together with solar plasma and field parameters (V, B, Bz, σB, N, and T) and their various derivatives (BV,-BVz, BV2, -BzV2, B2V, Bz2V, NV2) have been analysed in an attempt to study mechanism and the cause of geo-effectiveness of interplanetary manifestations of transient solar events. Several functions of solar wind plasma and field parameters are tested for their ability to predict the magnitude of geomagnetic storm.  相似文献    38.

N. Tandon 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1987,132(1):85-104 The equilibrium structure and oscillations of a partially degenerate standard model in the presence of a poloidal magnetic field have been studied. The magnetic field in the interior has been matched with an outside dipole field. The effect of magnetic field on the various structural parameters, e.g., mass, central condensation, moment of inertia, and oblateness has been computed for different values of the central degeneracy of the model. We have also studied the effect of magnetic field on radial oscillations of the configuration. A variational formulation is used to compute the changes in the frequency of radial mode of oscillation. It has been shown that the changes in frequency computed for various models using a two-parameter eigenfunction are in fair agreement with the values obtained by using the exact eigenfunction.  相似文献    [首页] « 上一页 [1] [2] [3] 4 [5] [6] [7] [8] [9] [10] [11] 下一页 » 末  页»
