Two-pyroxene thermobarometry with new experimental data in the system CaO-MgO-Al2O3-SiO2     

Tibor Gasparik 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1984,87(1):87-97

In the system CaO-MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ (CMAS), equilibrium alumina contents of orthopyroxene and clinopyroxene, both coexisting with spinel + forsterite or spinel + anorthite, have been reversed in 16 runs at 1,300–1,400°C and 10.2–20.8 kbar, using PbO flux. The present data and the data of Perkins and Newton (1980) have been modeled using the Redlich-Kister equation. The resulting model satisfies most of the reversed data in the CMAS system, agrees very well with thermochemical measurements, and is consistent with the model for the enstatite-diopside join of Lindsley et al. (1981) and with the system MgO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ of Gasparik and Newton (1984). The present data, however, do not confirm the negative slopes of Al-isopleths in the spinel lherzolite field suggested by Dixon and Presnall (1980). The new model has been used to calculate a graphical two-pyroxene thermobarometer applicable to natural two-pyroxene assemblages closely approaching in composition the CMAS system.  相似文献   

Experimental study of subsolidus phase relations and mixing properties of pyroxene in the system CaO-Al2O3-SiO2     

Tibor Gasparik 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》1984,48(12):2537-2545

Subsolidus phase relations in the system CaO-Al₂O₃-SiO₂ (CAS) were experimentally determined with tight reversals of several univariant curves and with 14 equilibration experiments containing the assemblage pyroxene + anorthite, where pyroxene is a binary solid solution of Ca-Tschermak (CaTs-CaAl₂SiO₆) and Ca-Eskola (CaEs-Ca_0.5AlSi₂O₆) endmembers.Reversals were obtained on the following reactions (bar, °C): 3An = Gr + 2Ky + Q (P = 22T ? 700), 3An + Cor = Gr + 3Ky (P = 21.8T ? 950), 3CaTs= Gr + 2Cor(P = 55T ? 53900), and 6CaTs_{(1 ? x)}CaEs_x = 2(1 ? 2x)Gr + 4(1 ? 2x)Cor + 9xAn. Observed slopes indicate 9.8 J/mol · K of Al-Si disorder in Ca-Tschermak pyroxene and 5.3 J/mol·K of Al-Si disorder in anorthite, at 1300°C. It is suggested that Al-Si disorder in anorthite increases by 1.9 J/mol · K from 700°C to 1300°C.Compositions of CaTs-CaEs pyroxene in equilibrium with anorthite and PbO-rich liquid were experimentally determined at 1400–1430°C and 22.7–30.8 kbar. Microprobe measurements gave compositions which are consistent with an ideal pyroxene solution and the following parameters for the reaction 3An = 2CaTs + 2CaEs (J, bar, K): 2RTln(X_CaTs · X_CaEs) + 60200 + 86.4T ? (5.06 + 13 × 10^?7P)P = 0, resulting in ΔH⁰_j = ?39.8 kJ/mol and S⁰ = 461.8 J/mol · K for the Ca-Eskola endmember at 1300°C. The obtained properties of the Ca-Eskola component are necessary for thermobarometry based on pyroxene bearing assemblages containing plagioclase, quartz, or kyanite.  相似文献   

Spatial organization of a shredder guild of caddisflies (Trichoptera) in a riffle - Searching for the effect of competition     

Dénes Schmera  Tibor Ero?s 《Limnologica》2007,37(2):129-136

The shredder guild plays an outstanding role in the functioning of headwater stream ecosystems by processing allochthonous leaf litter. Traditionally, the abiotic habitat template is regarded as the major determinant of its organization, and only a limited number of studies support the importance of biotic interactions. The aim of the present study was to examine whether competition plays a significant role in organizing the shredder guild of caddisflies in a riffle. Null-model based co-occurrence, co-existence and guild variation analyses were used in the study of guild organization. In addition, the traditional variance to mean ratio was applied for measuring the intraspecific aggregation of guild members. The non-significant metric values of co-occurrence and co-existence analyses predicted that competition was of limited importance in structuring the spatial organization of the shredder guild. The observed aggregated spatial distribution of species, suggests that besides stochastic events, deterministic forces should also contribute to the organization of the shredder guild of caddisflies.  相似文献

Reporting of cosmogenic nuclide data for exposure age and erosion rate determinations     

Tibor J. Dunai  Finlay M. Stuart 《Quaternary Geochronology》2009,4(6):437-440

We propose guidelines for the reporting of in situ cosmogenic nuclide data for exposure age and erosion rate determinations. This is motivated by the need to maintain the utility of such data in the future, and to delineate best scientific practice. These guidelines will allow published exposure ages and erosion rates to be recalculated with confidence by others in the future, if, as is likely, procedures to calculate cosmogenic nuclide production rates are modified in the meantime.  相似文献   

Enrichment processes at the base of the Archean lithospheric mantle: observations from trace element characteristics of pyropic garnet inclusions in diamonds   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

Trace element concentrations of peridotitic garnet inclusions in diamonds from two Chinese kimberlite pipes were determined using the ion microprobe. Garnet xenocrysts from the same two kimberlite pipes were also analyzed for comparison. In contrast to their extremely refractory major element compositions, all harzburgitic garnets showed enrichment in light rare earth elements (REE) relative to chondrite, resulting in sinuous REE patterns. Both normal and sinuous REE patterns were observed from the lherzolitic garnets. Concentrations of REE in garnets changed significantly from diamond to diamond and no specific correlations were observed with their major element compositions. Analyses of randomly selected two to three points within every grain of a large number of garnet inclusions by the ion microprobe demonstrated that there was no evident compositional heterogeneity, and multiple grains of one phase from a single diamond host also exhibit very similar compositions. This implies that the trace element heterogeneity within one grain or among multiple inclusions from the same diamond host, as reported from Siberian diamonds, is not a common feature for these Chinese diamonds. Concentrations of Na, Ti, and Zr tend to decrease when garnets become more refractory, but variations of Sr and Li are more complex. Compositions rich in light REE and relatively poor in high field strength elements (HFSE) of the harzburgitic garnet inclusions in diamonds are generally consistent with metasomatism by carbonatite melts. The trace element features observed from the garnet inclusions in Chinese diamonds may be caused by carbonatite melt infiltration and partial melt extraction. Spatial and temporal gradients in melt/rock ratio and temperature are the main reasons for the large variations of REE patterns and other trace element concentrations.

A complete and easily accessible means of calculating surface exposure ages or erosion rates from Be and Al measurements     

Greg Balco  John O. Stone  Nathaniel A. Lifton  Tibor J. Dunai 《Quaternary Geochronology》2008,3(3):174-195

We codify previously published means of calculating exposure ages and erosion rates from ¹⁰Be and ²⁶Al concentrations in rock surfaces, and present a single complete and straightforward method that reflects currently accepted practices and is consistent with existing production rate calibration measurements. It is intended to enable geoscientists, who wish to use cosmogenic-nuclide exposure age or erosion rate measurements in their work to: (a) calculate exposure ages and erosion rates; (b) compare previously published exposure ages or erosion rate measurements on a common basis; (c) evaluate the sensitivity of their results to differences between published production rate scaling schemes. The method is available online at http://hess.ess.washington.edu.  相似文献   

Retrograde alterations of phyllosilicates in low-grade metapelite: a case study from the Szendr? Paleozoic, NE-Hungary     

Péter árkai  Isabel Abad  Fernando Nieto  Tibor Németh  Péter Horváth  Viktória K. Kis  Katalin Judik  Juan Jiménez-Millán 《Swiss Journal of Geoscience》2012,105(2):263-282

Frequently, at temperatures lower than the metamorphic peak conditions, slates undergo mineral transformations, usually mediated by fluids. We have studied core material of an epizonal slate series (Szendr? Mountains, NE-Hungary) to reconstruct the post-metamorphic lower-T hydrothermal alterations using petrographic, X-ray diffraction, electron microprobe methods, and transmission electron microscopy. The borehole crosscuts an upper part of the ca. 600?C800?m Lower-Carboniferous flysch-like Szendr? Phyllite Formation. The samples were metamorphosed reaching epizonal conditions with a mineral assemblage characterized by quartz, muscovite, chlorite and albite. Even in the freshest samples, break-up and loosening of the regional metamorphic structure was observed, with cracks parallel to or crossing the cleavage. In the upper part, chlorite and albite are almost absent, while the presence of paragonite, mixed Na?CK mica, and mixed-layered minerals with smectitic component are characteristic. Goethite, halloysite, and subordinate kaolinite are present in the most altered sample (13.0?m in the profile) which may indicate the position of the fissures in which the circulation of the post-metamorphic fluids was the most intense. Muscovite is the only mica from the lower part of the profile and chlorite becomes a significant constituent, whereas paragonite, halloysite, and kaolinite are missing. Discrete smectite is present in all the samples in spite of being incompatible with the prograde evolution of the sequence. The interleaved smectite layers in chlorite and muscovite/chlorite mixed-layers show at the lattice level textural characteristics indicative of a later alteration process. After the metamorphic peak at epizonal conditions, the introduction of hot fluids through the fractures gave rise to the crystallization of Na?CK white micas and muscovite/chlorite under anchizonal conditions. In a final stage of the hydrothermal process, the cooling of the circulating fluids favored the formation of halloysite and kaolinite in the areas near to the fissures, smectites in the samples far away from the fractures, and locally, goethite. The Fe₂O₃ content increasing upwards indicates oxidizing conditions in the late stage of hydrothermal activity and/or eventually, an influence of a younger near-surface weathering.  相似文献

Advances in the chemical and isotopic characterisation of geological and environmental materials can often be ascribed to technological improvements in analytical hardware. Equally, the creation of novel methods of data acquisition and interpretation, including access to better reference materials, can also be crucial components enabling important breakthroughs. This biennial review highlights key advances in either instrumentation or data acquisition and treatment, which have appeared since January 2010. This review is based on the assessments by scientists prominent in each of the given analytical fields; it is not intended as an exhaustive summary, but rather provides insight from experts of the most significant advances and trends in their given field of expertise. In contrast to earlier reviews, this presentation has been formulated into a unified work, providing a single source covering a broad spectrum of geoanalytical techniques. Additionally, some themes that were not previously emphasised, in particular thermal ionisation mass spectrometry, accelerator‐based methods and vibrational spectroscopy, are also presented in detail.  相似文献
