Conventional seismic data are band limited and therefore, provide limited geological information. Every method that can push the limits is desirable for seismic data analysis. Recently, time‐frequency decomposition methods are being used to quickly extract geological information from seismic data and, especially, for revealing frequency‐dependent amplitude anomalies. Higher frequency resolution at lower frequencies and higher temporal resolution at higher frequencies are the objectives for different time‐frequency decomposition methods. Continuous wavelet transform techniques, which are the same as narrow‐band spectral analysis methods, provide frequency spectra with high temporal resolution without the windowing process associated with other techniques. Therefore, this technique can be used for analysing geological information associated with low and high frequencies that normally cannot be observed in conventional seismic data. In particular, the continuous wavelet transform is being used to detect thin sand bodies and also as a direct hydrocarbon indicator. This paper presents an application of the continuous wavelet transform method for the mapping of potential channel deposits, as well as remnant natural gas detection by mapping low‐frequency anomalies associated with the gas. The study was carried out at the experimental CO₂ storage site at Ketzin, Germany (CO₂SINK). Given that reservoir heterogeneity and faulting will have significant impact on the movement and storage of the injected CO₂, our results are encouraging for monitoring the migration of CO₂ at the site. Our study confirms the efficiency of the continuous wavelet transform decomposition method for the detection of frequency‐dependent anomalies that may be due to gas migration during and after the injection phase and in this way, it can be used for real‐time monitoring of the injected CO₂ from both surface and borehole seismics.  相似文献   

Diffusive and total oxygen uptake of deep-sea sediments in the eastern South Atlantic Ocean:in situ and laboratory measurements     

Ronnie Nhr Glud  Jens K. Gundersen  Bo Barker Jrgensen  Niels Peter Revsbech  Horst D. Schulz 《Deep Sea Research Part I: Oceanographic Research Papers》1994,41(11-12)

Total O₂ uptake rates were measured by the benthic flux chamber lander ELINOR, and O₂ microprofiles were measured by the profiling lander PROFILUR in the eastern South Atlantic. Diffusive O₂ fluxes through the diffusive boundary layer and the depth distribution of O₂ consumption rates within the sediment were calculated from the obtained microprofiles. The depth integrated O₂ consumption rate agreed closely with the diffusive O₂ uptake at all stations. Total O₂ uptake was 1.2–4.2 times the diffusive O₂ uptake, and the difference correlated with the abundance of macrofauna in the sediment. Diffusive O₂ uptake and O₂-penetration depths correlated with the organic content of the sediments and exhibited an inverse correlation with water depth. Total and diffusive rates of in situ O₂ uptake were higher than previously published data for shelf and abyssal sediments in the Atlantic, but were comparable to rates from upwelling areas in the eastern Pacific. Laboratory measurements on recovered sediment cores showed lower O₂ penetration depths and higher diffusive uptake rates than in situ measurements. The differences increased with increasing water depth. We primarily ascribe this compression of O₂ profiles to a transiently increased temperature during recovery and enhanced microbial activity in decompressed sediment cores. Total O₂ uptake rates measured in the laboratory on macrofauna-rich stations were, in contrast, lower than those measured in situ because of underrepresentation and disturbance of the macrofauna.  相似文献

分析了冲绳海槽北部的CSH1岩芯沉积物中矿物组成、化学元素质量分数和粒度的变化规律,研究结果表明,在全新世期间,日本九州岛发生了2次大规模火山喷发活动,造成大量的火山物质沉积在冲绳海槽北部。从岩芯最上部的沉积物中可识别出2层火山碎屑沉积,它们都具有沉积物粒径突然变粗、SiO2和Na2O等化合物的质量分数突然增加以及粘土矿物、挥发份、Fe2O3、MgO、CaO和Sr的质量分数迅速下降等特征。沉积物粒度数据的端员分析结果表明,冲绳海槽北部全新世沉积物中的硅酸盐碎屑是由陆源碎屑物质和火山灰按不同的比例混合而成的。有火山物质混入的沉积物的粒度分布多呈现双峰模式,粒度众数值分别为74.3和7.81μm。浮游有孔虫壳体的AMS14C测年结果表明,2层火山碎屑所对应的火山喷发年代分别为7 210和10 870 cal.aBP。其中前者与K-Ah火山的喷发时间一致,后者可能与Kuju火山在12~10 cal.kaBP期间的喷发有关。  相似文献   

The Importance of Posidonia oceanica and Cymodocea nodosa as Contributors of Free Amino Acids in Water and Sediment of Seagrass Beds

Abstract. Dissolved free amino acids (DFAA) were measured in sediment porewater and overlying sea water in seagrass beds of Posidonia oceanica and Cymodocea nodosa at a water depth of 8–10 m in Corsica, France. In the sea water, DFAA concentrations from 0.5 to 1.9μM were found. Lowest concentrations occurred in the afternoon in surface water samples, while higher concentrations were measured in morning surface samples and in all bottom samples. The most abundant amino acids were serine, glycine, and alanine. In the sediment, the upper 4cm contained the highest concentrations of DFAA (177nmol cm^-3 or 367 μM), while lower concentrations (<50nmol cm^-3 or 104 μM) prevailed deeper in the sediment. Glycine, glutamic acid, alanine, and β-alanine were the major components of the DFAA. The photosynthetic activity of the seagrasses influenced sediment porewater pools of DFAA. When a Posidonia bed was covered with a black polyethylene shield, the interstitial amino acids were reduced at a rate of 16nmol cm^-2 h^-1 (0-10cm depth). Conversely, extended daylight (floodlight) increased the DFAA pool in sediment depths below 4 cm. Free amino acids were released to the overlying sea water from both seagrass sediment and individual shoots, the rates being highest in the dark. The present investigation indicates that a substantial portion of the N-cycling of the seagrass sediment includes free amino acids.  相似文献   

Unsuitability of TAC management within an ecosystem approach to fisheries: An ecological perspective     

Henning Reiss  Simon P.R. Greenstreet  Leonie Robinson  Siegfried Ehrich  Lis L. Jørgensen  Gerjan J. Piet  Wim J. Wolff 《Journal of Sea Research》2010,63(2):85-92

Fisheries management in European waters is gradually moving from a single-species perspective towards a more holistic ecosystem approach to management (EAM), acknowledging the need to take all ecosystem components into account. Prerequisite within an EAM is the need for management processes that directly influence the ecological effects of fishing, such as the mortality of target and non-target species. Up until recently, placing limits on the quantities of fish that can be landed, through the imposition of annual total allowable catches (TACs) for the target species, has been the principal management mechanism employed. However, pressure on non-target components of marine ecosystems is more closely linked to prevailing levels of fishing activity, so only if TACs are closely related to subsequent fishing effort will TAC management serve to control the broader ecosystem impacts of fishing. We show that in the mixed fisheries that characterise the North Sea, the linkage between variation in TAC and the resulting fishing effort is in fact generally weak. Reliance solely on TACs to regulate fishing activity is therefore unlikely to mitigate the impacts of fishing on non-target species. Consequently, we conclude that the relationship between TACs and effort is insufficient for TACs to be used as the principal management tool within an EAM. The implications, and some alternatives, for fisheries management are discussed.  相似文献   

IUE observations of star formation in a cooling flow     

L. Hansen  H.E. JØrgensen  H.U. NØrgaard-Nielsen 《Astrophysics and Space Science》1997,257(2):311-318

Star formation in cooling flows is usually found to have an initial mass function deficient in massive stars, but the center of the cooling flow in Hydra A has been shown to contain a significant number of early type stars. Here we use UV-spectra obtained with the IUE satellite together with ground based data to constrain the nature of this young population. The data is compatible with a burst of star formation with a Salpeter-like initial mass function, a burst age of about 4 107 yr, and a total mass ≈ 108 M⊙.

The evolution of disk galaxies in clusters     

Alfonso Aragón-Salamanca  Bo Milvang-Jensen  George Hau  Inger Jørgensen  Jens Hjorth 《Astrophysics and Space Science》2002,281(1-2):339-342

We are carrying out a programme to measure the evolution of the stellar and dynamical masses and M/L ratios for a sizeable sample of morphologically-classified disk galaxies in rich galaxy clusters at 0.2 < z < 0.9. Using FORS2 at the VLT we are obtaining rotation curves for the cluster spirals so that their Tully-Fisher relation can be studied as a function of redshift and compared with that of field spirals. We already have rotation curves for ∼ 10 cluster spirals at z = 0.83, and 25 field spirals at lower redshifts and we plan to increase this sample by one order of magnitude. We present here the first results of our study, and discuss the implications of our data in the context of current ideas and models of galaxy formation and evolution.
