Deformation microstructures in experimentally deformed Maryland diabase     

Andreas K Kronenberg  Glenmore L Shelton 《Journal of Structural Geology》1980,2(3):341-353

Experimentally deformed Maryland diabase has been examined using the transmission electron microscope in order to determine the mechanisms of deformation operative over a range of temperatures and pressures and thereby aid in the interpretation of polyphase flow data. Deformation mechanisms within the plagioclase and clinopyroxene of the diabase have been compared to those within monomineralic aggregates of these phases deformed at the same conditions. Both phases deform by microfracturing, mechanical twinning, and intracrystalline slip.Data for the monomineralic aggregates show that plagioclase is stronger than clinopyroxene at <800°C, but weaker at ≥ 800°C, for a pressure of 15 kbar and strain rate of 10^?6/sec. Observations of the diabase are consistent with this result: at < 800°C, the plagioclase and pyroxene grains are about equally strained, whereas at ≥ 800°C, almost all of the sample strain is accommodated by the plagioclase, the more continuous phase.  相似文献   

Altersbeziehungen zwischen Metamorphosen,mechanischen Deformationen und Intrusionen am Südrand des Rhodope-Massivs (Makedonien,Griechenland)     

Dr. Andreas Kokkinakis 《International Journal of Earth Sciences》1980,69(3):726-744

Zusammenfassung Ausgedehnte Granodiorit- und Granitmagmen intrudierten am Südrand des Rhodope-Massivs (Symvolongebirge und Kavala-Gebiet, Nordgriechenland) syntektonisch in bezug auf eine Formung, die durch überwiegend flach nach NE bis ENE tauchende Faltungs- und Scherungsachsen gekennzeichnet ist (B₂-Tektonik). Die metamorphen Hüllgesteine wurden von der B₂-Tektonik ebenfalls kräftig erfaßt. Ihr älteres Gefüge, das durch mittelsteil nach NNW tauchende B₁-Achsen bestimmt war, kommt daher nur noch reliktisch vor. Der Mineralbestand sowohl der Magmatite als auch ihres metamorphen Rahmens wurde im Zuge der B₂-Tektonik retrograd metamorph umgewandelt.Radiometrische Altersbestimmungen lassen erkennen, daß die magmatischen Gesteine spätestens im Oberkarbon kristallisierten, anschließend jedoch wiederholt aufgewärmt wurden. Das Alter der prämagmatischen Metamorphose der Hüllgesteine und der mit dieser in Zusammenhang stehenden B₁-Tektonik kann demnach nicht jünger als kaledonisch sein.

Extensive granodioritic and granitic magmas were intruded in the southern margin of the Rhodope-Massif (Symvolon mountains and Kavala region, northern Greece). The intrusions took place syntectonically to a deformation which is characterized by predominantly gently NE to ENE plunging fold- and shear-axes (B₂-folding). The mantling rocks, which have been metamorphosed long before this B₂-folding have an older structure which is characterized by mediumly NNW plunging B₁-axes, visible only in relicts. During the B₂-folding the mineral contents of the igneous rocks and their metamorphic mantling rocks have been metamorphosed retrogressively.Radiometric dating indicates that the crystallization of the magmatic rocks have a minimum age of Upper-Carboniferous, but subsequently these rocks were reheated repeatedly. The age of the premagmatic metamorphism of the mantling rocks and that of the related B₁-foldnig, therefore, cannot be younger than Caledonic.

Résumé Dans la partie sud du massif du Rhodope (montagnes du Symvolon et région de Kavala, Grèce du Nord) existent de grandes intrusions de magmas granodioritiques et granitiques. Les intrusions eurent lieu syntectoniquement au cours d'une phase de déformation caractérisée par des axes de plis et de cisaillement, généralement à plongement faible vers le NE à ENE (tectonique B₂). Les roches encaissantes, qui furent métamorphisées longtemps avant cette phase de tectonique B₂, ont une structure plus ancienne, caractérisée par des axes B₁ plongeant moyennement vers le NNW. Cette structure est reconnaissable seulement dans des parties réiduelles. Durant la tectonique B₂ les roches éruptives et les roches encaissantes métamorphisées subirent un métamorphisme rétrograde.Des datations radiométriques indiquent, pour la cristallisation des roches magmatiques, au minimum un âge Carbonifère supérieur. Dans la suite ces roches furent réchauffées â plusieures reprises. Le métamorphisme plus ancien des roches encaissantes et la tectonique B₁ associée à ce métamorphisme ne peuvent donc pas Être plus récents que l'époque calédonienne.

Snow accumulation distribution inferred from time‐lapse photography and simple modelling     

Daniel Farinotti  Jan Magnusson  Matthias Huss  Andreas Bauder 《水文研究》2010,24(15):2087-2097

The spatial and temporal distribution of snow accumulation is complex and significantly influences the hydrological characteristics of mountain catchments. Many snow redistribution processes, such as avalanching, slushflow or wind drift, are controlled by topography, but their modelling remains challenging. In situ measurements of snow accumulation are laborious and generally have a coarse spatial or temporal resolution. In this respect, time‐lapse photography shows itself as a powerful tool for collecting information at relatively low cost and without the need for direct field access. In this paper, the snow accumulation distribution of an Alpine catchment is inferred by adjusting a simple snow accumulation model combined with a temperature index melt model to match the modelled melt‐out pattern evolution to the pattern monitored during an ablation season through terrestrial oblique photography. The comparison of the resulting end‐of‐winter snow water equivalent distribution with direct measurements shows that the achieved accuracy is comparable with that obtained with an inverse distance interpolation of the point measurements. On average over the ablation season, the observed melt‐out pattern can be reproduced correctly in 93% of the area visible from the fixed camera. The relations between inferred snow accumulation distribution and topographic variables indicate large scatter. However, a significant correlation with local slope is found and terrain curvature is detected as a factor limiting the maximal snow accumulation. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.  相似文献   

Vegetation history and environmental development since ca 6000 cal yr BP in and around Ispani 2 (Kolkheti lowlands,Georgia)     

Pim de Klerk  Andreas Haberl  Andreas Kaffke  Matthias Krebs  Izolda Matchutadze  Merten Minke  Jenny Schulz  Hans Joosten 《Quaternary Science Reviews》2009,28(9-10):890-910

The Kolkheti lowlands of western Georgia have a unique vegetation and a rich cultural history. Palynological and macrofossil analysis accompanied by AMS ¹⁴C-dates of the deposits of the Ispani 2 mire near Kobuleti allow the reconstruction of regional vegetation, environmental history and local peatland development within the context of Black Sea level and cultural changes. Comparison of two adjacent peatland cores confirms spatial differences in wetland development. Prior to 5400 cal yr BP, the Ispani basin was a floodplain of an active river system where overbank deposits with fluvially transported Castanea pollen were deposited. Subsequently, a lake or lagoon developed in which reeds expanded. These were succeeded by herb-rich open alder carrs. After 1900 cal yr BP, Carpinus and Fagus expanded on the dry grounds, where formerly Quercus was more abundant. Also Castanea declined. Local reedbeds, that burned regularly, succeeded the alder carr. After 1000 cal yr BP, a percolation bog developed resulting in the formation of 4 m of loose, porous, and largely undecomposed Sphagnum austinii peat with Molinia roots. The upper 50 cm of the analysed section show extensive human impact on the landscape during the 20th century.  相似文献   

The concentration–velocity dispersion relation in galaxy groups     

Andreas Faltenbacher  William G. Mathews 《Monthly notices of the Royal Astronomical Society》2007,375(1):313-323

Based on results from cold dark matter N -body simulations, we develop a dynamical model for the evolution of subhaloes within group-sized host haloes. Only subhaloes more massive than 5 × 10⁸ M_⊙ are considered, because they are massive enough to possibly host luminous galaxies. On their orbits within a growing host potential the subhaloes are subject to tidal stripping and dynamical friction. At the present time  ( z = 0)  , all model hosts have equal mass  ( M _vir= 3.9 × 10¹³ M_⊙)  but different concentrations associated with different formation times. We investigate the variation of subhalo (or satellite galaxy) velocity dispersion with host concentration and/or formation time. In agreement with the Jeans equation, the velocity dispersion of subhaloes increases with the host concentration. Between concentrations of ∼5 and ∼20, the subhalo velocity dispersions increase by a factor of ∼1.25. By applying a simplified tidal disruption criterion, that is, rejection of all subhaloes with a tidal truncation radius below 3  kpc at   z = 0  , the central velocity dispersion of the 'surviving' subhalo sample increases substantially for all concentrations. The enhanced central velocity dispersions in the surviving subhalo samples are caused by a lack of slow tangential motions. Additionally, we present a fitting formula for the anisotropy parameter which does not depend on concentration if the group-centric distances are scaled by r _s, the characteristic radius of the Navarro, Frenk & White profile. Since the expected loss of subhaloes and galaxies due to tidal disruption increases the velocity dispersion of surviving galaxies, the observed galaxy velocity dispersion can substantially overestimate the virial mass.  相似文献

Trace-element mobilization during Ca-metasomatism along a major fluid conduit: Eclogitization of blueschist as a consequence of fluid-rock interaction   总被引：5，自引：0，他引：5  

Andreas Beinlich  Reiner Klemd  Jun Gao 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》2010,74(6):1892-298

In the subduction complex of the Tianshan mountains, western China, massive blueschist is cross-cut by an eclogite-facies major fluid conduit surrounded by a reaction zone which is mainly composed of omphacite and garnet. Petrological as well as geochemical evidence suggest that formation of the vein and the eclogitic selvage around the vein was caused by fluid infiltration under peak metamorphic conditions of 21 ± 1.5 kbar and 510 ± 30 °C. The combination of whole-rock with mineral trace-element data as well as mass-balance calculations indicate that substantial differences exist between the unaltered host rock and the part of the system which was altered by fluid-rock interaction. These differences include: (1) depletion of mainly large-ion lithophile elements (LILE) and Li of up to 60% relative to their concentrations in the unaltered host rock; (2) an extreme enrichment of CaO (∼115%), Sr and Pb (>300%) in the altered parts of the vein-wall-rock system; (3) redistribution of heavy rare earth elements (HREE) from partly replaced rutile and recrystallized titanite in the blueschist-eclogite transition zone into newly grown garnet rims in the eclogitic selvage around the vein; (4) transformation of high Nb/Ta rutile into low Nb/Ta titanite which is associated with preferred mobilization of Nb over Ta; and (5) decoupling of Zr and Hf from Nb and Ta; the latter are depleted by ∼30% relative to the unaltered blueschist host rock whereas the former are depleted by only ∼10%. The prerequisite for the transformation of Ca-poor blueschist (6-7 wt.% CaO) into Ca-rich eclogite (up to 13 wt.% CaO) was the infiltration of a Ca-rich fluid. The release of trace elements can be attributed to partitioning of these elements into the passing fluid phase during dissolution-reprecipitation processes in the course of eclogitization. The reactivity of the precursor mineral assemblage and the chemical gradients between the reacting and passing fluid of the conduit are mainly responsible for trace-element mobilization in the studied samples. The suite of trace elements released upon fluid-induced eclogitization of the reactive wall-rock resembles that in island arc magmas showing strong enrichment of LIL elements, strong depletions in HFS elements and intermediate concentrations of REE.  相似文献   

Mineral dissolution kinetics as a function of distance from equilibrium – New experimental results     

Rolf S. Arvidson  Andreas Luttge 《Chemical Geology》2010,269(1-2):79-88

We revisit a fundamental question in mineral dissolution kinetics, namely: is the function of dissolution rate versus the distance from equilibrium continuous, or does the “switch” between two different reaction mechanisms cause a discontinuity, i.e., a kinetic bifurcation? Based on new insight from experimental results, including direct observations of retreating crystal surfaces with vertical scanning interferometry (VSI), we present evidence that a discontinuity does indeed exist. Through a carefully designed near-equilibrium albite dissolution experiment, we show how a non-steady-state dissolution rate observed on a crystal surface reflects reactivity inherited from earlier episodes of undersaturation. This outcome forces us to re-think the common practice of extrapolating overall dissolution rates measured far-from-equilibrium to near-equilibrium conditions.  相似文献   

Chondritic Mg isotope composition of the Earth   总被引：2，自引：0，他引：2  

Bernard Bourdon  Andreas Stracke 《Geochimica et cosmochimica acta》2010,74(17):5069-2836

The processes of planetary accretion and differentiation have potentially been recorded as variations in the stable isotope ratios of the major elements between planetary objects. However, the magnitude of observed isotopic variations for several elements (Mg, Fe, Si) is at the limit of what current analytical precision and accuracy are able to resolve. Here, we present a comprehensive data set of Mg isotope ratios measured in ocean island and mid-ocean ridge basalts, peridotites and chondrites. The precision and accuracy were verified by isotopic standard addition for two samples, one carbonaceous chondrite (Murchison) and one continental flood basalt (BCR-1). In contrast with some previous studies, our data from terrestrial and chondritic materials have invariant Mg isotope ratios within the uncertainty of the method (0.1‰ for the ²⁶Mg/²⁴Mg ratio, 2SD). Although isotopic variations of less than about 0.1‰ could still be present, the data demonstrate that, at this level of uncertainty, the bulk silicate Earth and chondritic Mg reservoir have a homogeneous δ²⁶Mg = −0.23‰ (²⁶Mg/²⁴Mg ratio of the sample relative to the DSM3 standard set to zero by definition). This implies that neither planetary accretion processes nor partial mantle melting and subsequent shallow-level differentiation have fractionated Mg isotope ratios. These observations imply in particular that the formation of the Earth cannot stem from preferential sorting of chondrite constituents that would have been fractionated in their Mg isotope composition. It also implies that unlike oxygen isotopes, there was no zonation in Mg isotopes in the inner solar system.  相似文献
