Santa Ana volcano in western El Salvador, Central America, had a phreatic eruption at 8:05 am (local time) on October 1, 2005, 101 years after its last eruption. However, during the last one hundred years this volcano has presented periods of quiet degassing with fumarolic activity and an acidic lake within its crater. This paper presents results of frequent measurements of SO₂ degassing using the MiniDOAS (Differential Optical Absorption Spectroscopy) system and a comparison with the volcanic seismicity prior to the eruption, during, and after the eruption. Vehicle measurements of SO₂ flux were taken every hour during the first nine days of the eruption and daily after that. The period of time reported here is from August to December, 2005. Three periods of degassing are distinguished: pre-eruptive, eruptive, and post-eruptive periods. The intense activity at Santa Ana volcano started in July 2005. During the pre-eruptive period up to 4306 and 5154 ton/day of SO₂ flux were recorded on October 24 and September 9, 2005, respectively. These values were of the same order of magnitude as the recorded values just after the October 1^st eruption (2925 ton/day at 10:01 am). Hourly measurements of SO₂ flux taken during the first nine days after the main eruptive event indicate that explosions are preceded by an increase in SO₂ flux and that this parameter reaches a peak after the explosion took place. This behavior suggests that increasing accumulation of exsolved magmatic gases occurs within the magmatic chamber before the explosions, increasing the pressure until the point of explosion. A correlation between SO₂ fluxes and RSAM (Real Time Seismic Amplitude Measurements) is observed during the complete sampling period. Periodic fluctuations in the SO₂ and RSAM values during the entire study period are observed. One possible mechanism explaining these fluctuations it that convective circulation within the magmatic chamber can bring fresh magma periodically to shallow levels, allowing increasing degasification and then decreasing degasification as the batch of magma lowers its gas content, becomes denser, and sinks to give space to a new magma pulse. These results illustrate that the measurements of SO₂ flux can provide important warning signals for incoming explosive activity in active volcanoes.  相似文献   

Shallow structure of the Somma–Vesuvius volcano from 3D inversion of gravity data     

Federico Cella  Maurizio Fedi  Giovanni Florio  Marino Grimaldi  Antonio Rapolla 《Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research》2007

A gravity investigation was carried out in the Somma–Vesuvius complex area (Campania, Italy) based on a dataset recently enlarged with new measurements. These cover the volcanic top and fill some other important spatial gaps in previous surveys. Besides the new gravity map of the Vesuvius, we also present the results of a 3D inverse modelling, carried out by using constraints from deep well exploration and seismic reflection surveys. The resulting density model provides a complete reconstruction of the top of the carbonate basement. This is relevant mostly on the western side of the survey area, where no significant information was previously available. Other new information regards the Somma–Vesuvius structure. It consists of an annular volume of rocks around the volcanic vent and that extends down to the carbonate basement. It results to be denser with respect to the surrounding sedimentary cover of the Campanian Plain and to the material located just along the central axis of the volcanic structure. The coherence between these features and other geophysical evidences from previous studies, will be discussed together with the other results of this research.  相似文献   

Remote and in situ plume measurements of acid gas release from La Soufrière volcano, Guadeloupe

This paper presents the first remote measurements of La Soufrière gas emissions since the fumarolic and seismic reactivation in 1992. The chemical composition of the plumes has been measured from May 2003 to September 2004 using an Open Path Fourier Transform InfraRed (OP-FTIR) spectrometer, up to 15 m downwind the South Crater. HCl is clearly detected (concentration between 2.4 and 12 ppmv) whereas SO₂ and H₂S generally remain below the detection limit of the OP-FTIR. Direct measurements of SO₂ and H₂S near the South Crater with a Lancom III analyzer show a fast decrease of their concentrations with the distance. Calculated Cl / S mass ratios are high: from 9.4 ± 1.7 at 15 m from the vent to 2.8 ± 0.6 at 140 m. The enrichment in HCl of the gas emitted at La Soufrière, observed since 1998, corresponds to the degassing of a magma enriched in Cl and depleted in S. This result agrees with isotopic measurements which suggest a magmatic origin of the gases. Readjustments inside the volcanic system may have taken place during the seismic activity beginning in 1992 and enhance the transfer of magmatic gases to the summit.  相似文献

新疆北部哈巴河一带出露的一套晚古生代早期长英质火山岩主要由英安质—流纹质火山岩组成。其Rb-Sr等时线年龄为405±57Ma,为早泥盆世。地球化学特征显示它们具有Ti含量低,Mg#含量中等—富集(42.2~88.7),Th/Ta为8.6~16.4,低—中等Ti/Zr值(介于4.9~53.46);稀土配分型式为LREE富集,无Eu或中等的负Eu异常;且在蜘蛛网图上显示LILE富集,Nb和Ta亏损的特征。Y-Nb和Rb-(Y+Nb)构造判别图解显示这些长英质火山岩形成于岛弧环境。结合前人的研究成果,认为新疆北部哈巴河晚古生代早期长英质火山岩是在古亚洲洋北侧岛弧构造环境下形成的,是作为古亚洲洋从SW至NE方向朝西伯利亚古板块俯冲的产物。  相似文献

为了定量评价火山岩脱CO2气量的潜力，选择松辽盆地北部火山岩进行了低温脱气实验。将火山岩加热到250℃时，脱出挥发份总量为0.0299～0.0790ml/g；其中CO2脱出量为0.0218～0.0706 ml/g（0.429～1.387wt％）。脱挥发份总量与其中CO2量具有良好的正线性相关；挥发份以CO2气为主，其次是Ｎ2气，还伴有H2、CO、CH4等还原性气体，以及更少量的低碳烷烃；基性火山岩比中、酸性火山岩脱出CO2数量较多。火山岩吸附大量CO2气，成为充足气源，火山岩脱出的吸附气主要是辗转而来的深源气，火山岩成为探索幔源气成藏的主要源岩，尤其是基性火山岩。估算CO2资源量，可将250℃时火山岩挥发份含量作为岩石挥发份及残余CO2量的下限值，而全岩分析的总碳含量可作为CO2脱出量的上限值。  相似文献

新疆新源县南部那拉提山北坡出露的石炭纪火山岩主要由玄武岩、玄武质粗面安山岩、粗面安山岩、安山岩、流纹岩和火山碎屑岩组成。该火山岩中玄武岩属于钙碱性系列，安山质岩石和流纹岩属于高钾钙碱性系列，其中轻稀土轻微富集而重稀土相对亏损，玄武岩富集大离子亲石元素、U、Th和Pb，亏损高场强元素。研究表明，该火山岩岩浆可能是由俯冲板片脱水产生的流体交代地幔楔后，地幔楔发生部分熔融的结果。微量元素模拟计算表明，该玄武岩岩浆可以由石榴石二辉橄榄岩经3％～6％的部分熔融得到；安山质岩浆可由玄武岩岩浆经15％-28％的分离结晶形成。  相似文献   

Visualization of Volcanic Rock Geochemical Data and Classification with Artificial Neural Networks   总被引：1，自引：0，他引：1

An unsupervised neural network technique, Growing Cell Structures (GCS) was used to visualize geochemical differences between four different island arc volcanic rock types: basalts, andesites, dacites and rhyolites. The output of the method shows the cluster structure of the dataset clearly, and the relevant geochemical patterns and relationships between its variables. The data can be separated into four clusters, each associated with a specific volcanic rock type (basalt, andesite, dacite and rhyolite), according to a unique combination of major element concentrations. Following clustering, performance of the trained GCS network as a classifier of volcanic rock type was tested using two test datasets with major element concentration data for 312 and 496 island arc volcanic rock samples of known volcanic type. Preliminary classification results are promising. In the first test dataset 94% of basalts, 76% of andesites, 83% of dacites and 100% of the rhyolites were classified correctly. Successful classification rates in the second dataset were 100%, 80%, 77%, and 98% respectively. The success of the analysis suggests that neural networks analysis constitutes a useful analytical tool for identification of natural clusters and examination of the relationships between numeric variables in large datasets, and that can be used for automatic classification of new data.  相似文献

分析了赣南三百山盆地地层层序和岩石地层划分的研究现状及存在分歧的原因,提出前人建立的地层层序与野外新发现的地质事实不相吻合,三百山盆地不存在所谓的双峰式火山岩组合和推覆构造。依据地层层序律,将三百山盆地自下而上可划分为砂岩层、长英质火山岩层、镁铁质火山岩层和砂砾岩层四套;通过地层对比,将第一套砂岩层划归上侏罗统武夷群双峰岭组、第二套长英质火山岩层划归上侏罗统武夷群鹅湖岭组、第三套铁镁质火山岩层和第四套砂砾岩层划归下白垩统罗塘群白埠组。  相似文献
