Seafloor spreading, obduction and triple junction tectonics of the Mineoka Ophiolite, Central Japan     

Yujiro Ogawa  Akiko Takahashi 《Tectonophysics》2004,392(1-4):131

The Tertiary Mineoka ophiolite occurs in a fault zone at the intersection of the Honshu and Izu forearcs in central Japan and displays structural evidence for three major phases of deformation: normal and oblique-slip faults and hydrothermal veins formed during the seafloor spreading evolution of the ophiolite at a ridge-transform fault intersection. These structures may represent repeated changes in differential stress and pore-fluid pressures during their formation. The second series of deformation is characterized by oblique thrust faults with Riedel shears and no significant mineral veining, and is interpreted to have resulted from transpressional dextral faulting during the obduction of the ophiolite through oblique convergence and tectonic accretion. This deformation occurred at the NW corner of a TTT-type (trench–trench–trench) triple junction in the NW Pacific rim before the middle Miocene. The third series of deformation of the ophiolite is marked by contractional and oblique shear zones, Riedel shears, and thrust faults that crosscut and offset earlier structures, and that give the Mineoka fault zone its lenticular (phacoidal) fabric at all scales. This deformation phase was associated with the establishment and the southward migration of the TTT Boso triple junction and with the kinematics of oblique subduction and forearc sliver fault development. The composite Mineoka ophiolite hence displays rocks and structures that evolved during its complex geodynamic history involving seafloor spreading, tectonic accretion, and triple junction evolution in the NW Pacific Rim.  相似文献   

Partitioning of Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Fe²⁺, Mn²⁺ and Mg²⁺ between olivine and silicate melts: compositional dependence of partition coefficient   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Eiichi Takahashi 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1978,42(12):1829-1844

Partitioning of Ni²⁺, Co²⁺, Fe²⁺, Mn²⁺ and Mg²⁺ between olivine and silicate melts has been determined near the join (Mg_0.5·-Fe_0.5)₂SiO₄-K₂O 4SiO₂ and for seven different basaltic compositions. The experiments were made at 1 atm total pressure, 1500-1100°C, and under moderate to reducing oxygen fugacities. The concentration factor, defined as K^MO = (MO)^ol/(MO)^liq (molar ratio), increases markedly for all the cations studied as the olivine component of the liquid decreases. Much of the increase in K^MO is considered as due to the compositional effect of the coexisting liquid: the temperature effect on K^MO is probably opposite to the compositional effect (K^MO decreases as temperature decreases).The partition coefficient K^MO-MgO = (MO/MgO)^ol/(MO/MgO)^liq for the reaction, M_ol²⁺ + Mg_liq²⁺ = M_liq²⁺ + Mg_ol²⁺. is relatively constant over a wide range of SiO₂ content of the liquid, except in the case of Ni²⁺. The partition coefficients have similar ranges both in synthetic and natural rock systems: K^NiO-MgO = 1.8–3.0, K^CoO-MgO = 0.6–0.8, K^FeO-MgO = 0.27–0.38, and K^MnO-MgO = 0.23–0.32. There is a systematic variation in the partition coefficient K^MO-MgO with the composition of liquid; K^MO-MgO increases with increasing SiO₂ content of melt. The partition coefficients for Co²⁺, Fe²⁺ and Mn²⁺ are useful to test the equilibration of olivine with magma of a wide compositional range.  相似文献   

A Tsunami Generated by a Possible Submarine Slide: Evidence for Slope Failure Triggered by the North Anatolian Fault Movement     

K.?MinouraEmail author  F.?Imamura  U.?Kuran  T.?Nakamura  G. A.?Papadopoulos  D.?Sugawara  T.?Takahashi  A. C.?Yalciner 《Natural Hazards》2005,36(3):297-306

A tsunamigenic sediment layer has been discovered in fluvio-alluvial sequences on the northern coast of the Marmara Sea, northwestern Turkey. The layer consists of unsorted silty coarse sand including terrestrial molluscs and charcoal fragments. The AMS radiometric ages of the shells have been estimated at around BC 400, AD 300, AD 400, and AD 1000. We propose that a tsunami occurred in the Marmara Sea in the middle of 11th century and invaded the fluvial plains. The older fossils were derived from the underlying horizons, and it is probable that buoyant materials such as terrestrial molluscs and charcoals were isolated from liquefied sediments during submarine sliding. Slope failure of coastal blocks triggered by fault movement generated tsunamis, which might have transported floating materials to the backshore.  相似文献   

Tectono–Magmatic Evolution and Metallogenesis along the Northeast Jiangxi Deep Fault, China     

Ying Ye  Hidehiko Shimazaki  Masaaki Shimizu  Shouxi Hu 《Resource Geology》1998,48(1):43-50

Abstract: From the southernmost part of Jiangsu province to the northeastern part of Jiangxi province, China, the Northeast Jiangxi Deep Fault runs for about 400 km length with a width of 30 to 40 km. This fault marks the suture zone of two ter-ranes of Proterozoic age. At the both sides of the fault, Yanshanian granitic activity is recognized. That is, the Dexing-Wuyuan porphyry belt on the NW side of the fault, and the Damaoshan-Lingshan granite belt on the SE side. The former activity is characterized by the occurrence of small stocks of granodioritic composition, rich in siderophile elements but poor in LIL elements. No distinct Eu anomaly is recognized in the REE pattern, and a low initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratio is reported. Magnetite, sphene and apatite are observed as accessory minerals. On the contrary, granitic activity on the SE side of the fault is characterized by the occurrence of composite batholiths, in general of granitic to monzogranitic composition, rich in LIL and alkali elements but poor in siderophile and alkali earth elements. A strong Eu anamaly is recognized in the REE pattern, and initial ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr ratios are as high as 0. 716. Fluorite, zircon and REE minerals are observed as accessory minerals. These two contrasting granitic activities are refered to as syntexis– and transformation–types, respectively, following the classification commonly used in China, and have similar petrochemical characteristics to those defined for the magnetite– and ilmenite–series, and I– and S-type granitoids. Considering that the above igneous activity occurred far from the supposed subduction zone along the East Coast of China, intracontinental A-type (continent to continent) subduction is proposed to have occurred northwestwards along the NE Jiangxi Deep Fault during Yanshanian time due to a strong compressional stress from SE to NW. A-type subduction introduced the continental slab to some depth, and resulted in the production of the paired granitic activity observed on both sides of the fault. Many mineral deposits are associated with both granitic belts. In the Dexing-Wuyuan porphyry belt, the Dexing porphyry Cu and Yinshan polymetallic deposits are representative, whereas in the Damaoshan-Lingshan granite belt, several tens of rare metal deposits are known such as the Geyuan Nb–Ta–W–Sn deposits. Metal assemblages of those deposits reflect the source materials of magmas in both granitic belts.  相似文献   

NATURE OF PRECIPITATION AND ACTIVITY OF CUMULUS CONVECTION DURING THE 1991 MEIYU SEASON OF CHANGJIANG-HUAIHE RIVER BASIN^*     

Lu Er  Ding Yihui  Masato Murakami  Kiyotoshi Takahashi 《Acta Meteorologica Sinica》1998,12(1):75-91

Seasonal variability regarding the nature of precipitation and the activity of cumulus convection during the 1991 Meiyu season of Changjiang-Huaihe River Basin(Jianghuai)has been investigated by calculating apparent heat source/apparent moisture sink and analyzing TBB(cloud-top blackody radiation temperature)data.It is found that three periods of strong ascending motion during the Meiyu season lead to three episodes of heavy rain,and the latent heat due to the precipitation is of the sole heat source of the atmosphere.The nature of precipitation shows distinct seasonal variability,from frontal precipitation of the first episode to the extremely strong convective precipitation of the third episode.TBB field of East Asia may well reflect not only the intensity of convection and rainfall,but also the movement of rain belt and convection belt.In the whole Meiyu season.convection belt mainly stays in Jianghuai.but may shift within the domain of East Asia.Its locating in Jianghuai or not determines the maintenance or break of Meiyu.In the third episode,the narrow convection belt over Jianghuai is mainly caused by southwest monsoon which takes moist and convective atmosphere from tropical ocean.  相似文献   

Attenuation behaviour of tuffaceous sandstone and granite during microfracturing   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1  

Angelika-M. Wulff  Toshiyuki Hashida  Kimio Watanabe  & Hideaki Takahashi 《Geophysical Journal International》1999,139(2):395-409

Laboratory measurements of ultrasonic wave propagation in tuffaceous sandstone (Kimachi, Japan) and granite (Iidate, Japan) were performed during increasing fracturing of the samples. The fracturing was achieved by unconfined uniaxial compression up to and beyond the point of macrofracture of the specimen using a constant low strain rate. The observed variation of wave velocity (up to 40 per cent) due to the development of micro- and macrofractures in the rock is interpreted by rock models relating velocity changes to damage and crack density. The calculated density of the newly formed cracks reaches higher values for the sandstone than for the granite. Using the estimated crack densities, the attenuation behaviour is interpreted in terms of different attenuation mechanisms; that is, friction and scattering. Rayleigh scattering as described by the model of Hudson (1981 ) may explain the attenuation qualitatively if the largest plausible crack dimensions are assumed in modelling.  相似文献

Source models for the 1993 Hokkaido Nansei-Oki earthquake tsunami   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

A source model for the 1993 Hokkaido Nansei-Oki tsunami must satisfy certain conditions. Such conditions are presented in this paper, and two methods are used to determine the best source model for this event. A trial-and-error method selects DCRC-17a as the best among 24 different models. This model has three fault planes dipping westward. To reproduce well the tide gauge records at two locations, an inversion analysis is used to modify the dislocation of DCRC-17a.  相似文献   

Passive seismic response controlled high-rise building with high damping device     

Naoki Niwa  Takuji Kobori  Motoichi Takahashi  Tomohiko Hatada  Haruhiko Kurino  Jun Tagami 《地震工程与结构动力学》1995,24(5):655-671

This paper describes a feasibility study on a high-damping device (HiDAM) installed in a building structure by way of a bracing mechanism. A seismic response analysis with respect to a high-rise building approximately 100 m high is reported. Proper adjustment of the damping coefficient of the HiDAM (oil damper) provided an over all damping factor of about 10–20 per cent to the building structure, and reductions in the response, deformation and shear forces were verified analytically. This paper reports also the performance confirmation tests conducted on a model device of the HiDAM which satisfied the specifications determined from the analytical results. The test results demonstrate the feasibility of the HiDAM and the possibility of utilizing it in high-rise buildings.  相似文献   

Water status in winter wheat grown under salt stress

1 IntroductionSalinization is one of the major problems in arid and semi-arid regions in relation to land use and in particular to agricultural production[1]. Excessive salinity leads to toxicity in crops and reduction of the availability of water to crops, by reducing the osmotic potential of the soil solution[2]. Movement of soil water induces solute transport, and solutes are transferred towards the ground surface by the upward soil-water movement caused by evaporation, resulting in an accu…  相似文献
