The composition and distribution of macrobenthic communities was investigated in three areas in the KwaZulu- Natal Bight, a section of shelf off the east coast of South Africa. Areas were pre-selected on the basis of three known oceanographic features, posited to deliver land- or Agulhas Current-derived nutrients onto the shelf and to drive ecosystem functioning in this region. Replicate sediment samples were collected with a 0.2 m2 van Veen grab, during two surveys (A, B) corresponding with normal periods of high and low rainfall, respectively. A subset of the full station array was selected across the shelf in an arrangement of increasing depths (inner-, mid- and outer shelf) through each feature area to investigate the spatial distribution and feeding modes of macrobenthic taxa. The two periods showed some differences in abundance and numbers of macrobenthic taxa, but were not statistically different. Total macrobenthic abundance from Survey A was 20 215 individuals from 642 taxa, decreasing to 18 000 individuals from 503 taxa during Survey B. Polychaeta and Crustacea were the dominant taxa sampled; abundance of the latter was attributed largely to a proliferation of Paguristes sp.1 at inner-shelf samples in the midbight (Thukela) region during Survey B. Similarity classification distinguished seven sample groups reflecting differences in feature areas and shelf positions under investigation. The Thukela River midshelf community supported the highest macrobenthic abundance, while the midshelf off the southern bight (Durban region) was most species rich. Findings were attributed to the habitat complexity of the midshelf which includes a palaeo-dune cordon at the 60 m isobath. Functionally, the community was dominated by interface- and deposit-feeding fauna, emphasising the importance of trophic plasticity in an environmentally variable and heterogeneous shelf environment. 相似文献

In 1986/1987, 53 magnetotelluric soundings were carried out along the deep seismic reflection line DEKORP 2-N crossing the Münsterland basin and the Rhenish Massif. Examination of the data suggests one-dimensional interpretation to be appropriate for the Münsterland sites and still reasonable as an approximation for the major part of the Rhenish Massif sites. In some cases, the data are disturbed by man-made noise, in particular at the northern border of the Rhenish Massif, or affected by static shift distortion effects evidencing small scale, near surface electrical conductivity inhomogeneities. One-dimensional modeling for undistorted stations reveals a good conductor at a depth of 6–8 km in the Münsterland basin and at a depth of 14–16 km in the Rhenish Massif, shallowing to the north. Thus far, earlier MT results for these regions are largely corroborated. Comparison with reflection seismic results shows the conductor of the Rhenish Massif to coincide fairly well with a poorly reflective zone in the middle crust associated with strong reflectors at its upper and lower boundaries.The discussion of possibly responsible electrical conduction mechanisms considers electronic conduction to be most favorable for explanation of the Münsterland good conductor. Black shales with high organic content are regarded as being primarily capable of producing the observed high conductance because of adequate pre-graphitization of organic matter which may form a conducting network at conditions of very low grade metamorphism. In accordance with the crustal structure discernible from seismic reflections, an extension of this black shale horizon to the south into the Rhenish Massif is discussed. At the base of overthrusted rock masses it could have served as a gliding horizon during the Variscan folding era. Mobilization of its organic content and redeposition in shear zones would explain the good conductor of the Rhenish Massif by means of electronic conduction. Therefore, concurrence between the good conductor and strong seismic reflecting elements appears conceivable provided the latter represent shear zones as well. Electrolytic conduction, often supposed to be causative to high conductivity layers at midcrustal depths, would require considerable connected pore space. If the latter interpretation is correct the good conductor observed will indicate a recent thermal or extensional process.
Zusammenfassung In den Jahren 1986 und 1987 wurden 53 magnetotellurische Sondierungen entlang des tiefenreflexionsseismischen Profils DEKORP 2-N in der Münsterländer Bucht und im Rheinischen Schiefergebirge durchgeführt. Die Auswertung der Daten läßt erkennen, daß eine eindimensionale Interpretation für die Meßpunkte in der Münsterländer Bucht angemessen ist und eine zulässige Näherung für den größten Teil der Meßpunkte im Rheinischen Schiefergebirge darstellt. In einigen Fällen sind die Daten durch künstliche elektromagnetische Signale gestört, besonders am nördlichen Rand des Rheinischen Schiefergebirges, oder durch »Static Shift«-Effekte verzerrt. Letztere weisen auf kleinräumige, oberflächennahe Leitfähigkeitsinhomogenitäten hin. Eindimensionale Modellrechnungen an ungestörten Stationen zeigen einen guten Leiter in 6 bis 8 km Tiefe in der Münsterländer Bucht und einen weiteren in 14 bis 16 km Tiefe im Rheinischen Schiefergebirge, der nach Norden hin ansteigt. Frühere MT-Ergebnisse für diese Gebiete werden damit weitgehend bestätigt. Ein Vergleich mit den reflexionsseismischen Ergebnissen macht deutlich, daß die Tiefenlage des guten Leiters im Rheinischen Schiefergebirge sehr gut mit einer reflexionsarmen Zone in der mittleren Kruste zusammentrifft, die an ihrer oberen und unteren Grenze von kräftigen Reflektorenbündeln eingeschlossen ist.Eine genaue Betrachtung der in Frage kommenden elektrischen Leitungsmechanismen ergibt, daß Elektronenleitung als wahrscheinlichste Erklärung für den guten Leiter in der Münsterländer Bucht anzusehen ist. Schwarzschiefer mit einem hohen Gehalt an organischem Material können die beobachteten großen Leitfähigkeiten erzeugen, wenn das organische Material durch eine niedriggradige Metamorphose prägraphitisiert ist und ein Netzwerk elektrischer Leiterbahnen ausbildet. In Anlehnung an die aus den seismischen Reflexionen ableitbare Krustenstruktur wird eine Ausdehnung dieses Schwarzschiefer-Horizontes nach Süden in das Rheinische Schiefergebirge diskutiert. An der Basis der überschobenen Gesteinspakete könnte er als Gleithorizont während der variszischen Faltung gedient haben. Eine mögliche Mobilisation seines organischen Gehaltes und Wiederablagerung in Scherzonen könnte den guten Leiter des Rheinischen Schiefergebirges somit ebenfalls durch Elektronenleitung erklären. Es liegt deshalb nahe anzunehmen, daß der gute Leiter unmittelbar identisch ist mit den Bündeln von Reflektoren, sofern diese ebenfalls als Überschiebungsbahnen anzusprechen sind. Elektrolytische Leitung, die oft als Ursache für Schichten mit hoher Leitfähigkeit in der mittleren und unteren Kruste vermutet wird, erfordert einen beträchtlichen konnektierten Porenraum. In diesem Fall wäre der gute Leiter als Hinweis auf rezente Wärmezufuhr oder Dehnungsprozesse zu deuten.
Résumé En 1986 et 1987, 53 sondages magnéto-telluriques ont été effectués le long du profil de sismique-reflexion DEKORP 2-N mené à travers le bassin du Münsterland et le massif schisteux rhénan. L'examen des résultats montre qu'une interprétation uni-dimensionnelle convient à la région du Münsterland et est acceptable en première approximation pour la majeure partie du massif rhénan. Dans quelques cas, les mesures sont perturbées par des signaux électro-magnétiques d'origine artificielle, particulièrement au bord nord du massif rhénan, ou encore sont affectées par des effets de «static shift» traduisant des hétérogénéités de la conductivité électrique près de la surface. La modélisation uni-dimensionnelle, établie pour les stations non perturbées, met en évidence un bon conducteur situé à une profondeur de 6 à 8 km dans le Münsterland et un autre à 14 à 16 km dans le massif rhénan, ce dernier s'élevant vers le nord. Les résultats de mesures magnéto-telluriques antérieures sont ainsi confirmés. Par comparaison avec le profil de sismique-reflexion, le conducteur du massif rhénan correspond à une zône peu reflective de la croûte moyenne limitée à son toit et à son mur par des réflecteurs marqués.La discussion des mécanismes susceptibles d'être responsables de la conduction électrique fait apparaître la conduction électronique comme la plus probable dans le cas du conducteur du Münsterland. Des schistes noirs riches en matière organique peuvent justifier la haute conductivité en raison de la pré-graphitisation qui, dans des conditions de métamorphisme de très faible degré, peut engendrer un réseau conducteur. En liaison avec les structures crustales déduites de la sismique-réflexion, l'extension latérale éventuelle de cet horizon pourrait avoir joué le rôle de lubrifiant à la base de masses charriées au cours du plissement varisque. La mobilisation de son contenu organique reprécipité dans des shear-zones expliquerait la présence du bon conducteur sur le massif rhénan, par un processus de conduction électronique. Ainsi pourrait s'expliquer la coïncidence du bon conducteur et des bons réflecteurs sismiques, puisque ces derniers s'interprètent comme des surfaces de charriage. Un processus de conduction électronique, souvent considéré comme responsable de couches à haute conductivité dans la croûte moyenne, exige la présence d'un volume important de pores interconnectés. Si une telle interprétation est correcte, le bon conducteur observé serait l'indice d'un échauffement ou d'un processus extensif récent.

The relatively wide KwaZulu-Natal Bight between St Lucia and Durban on the north-east shelf of South Africa is characterised by several circulation features driven by the Agulhas Current, wind and coastal inputs. A large multidisciplinary programme investigated the sources and relative influences of nutrients on the shelf. Within this, and to address a critical knowledge gap, this study describes macrobenthic (<1 mm) composition and frequency from 16 stations, assigned amongst four oceanographic focus areas. The areas were predetermined across the disciplines to represent upwelling, outwelling and a semi-persistent eddy, with nutrients and primary productivity being measured at each. Environmental variables such as sediment distribution, sediment TOC and bottom water physico-chemistry were determined at a significantly larger spatial scale. Our study postulated that oceanographic focus areas support significantly different macrobenthic assemblages, and that composition and relative distribution is due to measurable habitat attributes at each. Macrofauna were relatively abundant and particularly rich at >1 000 taxa. Annelida, Arthropoda, Mollusca, Echinodermata, Sipuncula and Cnidaria (>50 taxa each) were the dominant macrobenthic groups in the bight. Annelida were dominated by the polychaete families Spionidae, Terrebelidae and Cirratullidae, which were generally associated with outwelling and a mud depocentre off the Thukela River. Two unique and distinctive assemblages were found, one in the Thukela Mouth focus area and another on the midshelf between Thukela and Durban. The latter is influenced by poorly sorted, coarse sand and with probable influences from the Durban Eddy. There assemblages were abundant, rich and specific to this habitat. Correlation, PERMANOVA and CAP analyses showed assemblage fidelity to the focus areas. Medium sand, fine sand, mud and the variance of overall sediment type were the habitat drivers underlying macrofaunal abundance distributions. 相似文献

Based on previous works of OPAL, we construct a series of opacity tables for various metallicities Z=0, 0.000 01, 0.000 03, 0.000 1, 0.000 3, 0.001, 0.004, 0.01, 0.02, 0.03, 0.04, 0.05, 0.06, 0.08 and 0.1. These tables can be easily used in Eggleton's stellar evolution code in place of the old tables without changing the code. The OPAL tables are used for log10(T/K) > 3.95 and Alexander's for log10(T/K) < 3.95. At log10(T/K) = 3.95, the two groups' data fit well for all hydrogen mass fractions. Conductive opacities are included by reciprocal addition according to the formulae of Yakovlev and Urpin. A comparison of 1 and 5 M models constructed with the older OPAL tables of Iglesias and Rogers shows that the new opacities have most effect in the late stages of evolution, the extension of the blue loop during helium burning for intermediate-mass and massive stars. 相似文献

In order to better understand the nature of deep crustal high electrical conductivity, we studied the electrical properties of a tilted section of a former lower continental crust exposed in the Calabrian arc of the Alpine-Apennine mountain system. Geoelectric field measurements and impedance measurements on rock samples showed that these high-grade metamorphic rocks are generally highly resistive as expected for crystalline, electrolytically conducting rocks of low porosity. This holds for graphite-free metabasites as well as for metapelites which generally contain accessory, up to 3% biogenic graphite in the form of isolated grains. Clearly as an exception, a group of thin stratiform black horizons with thicknesses of 1-15 cm within the metapelitic series was detected by means of self-potential (SP) measurements. Rock samples from these horizons exhibit high, quasi-metallic bulk conductivities of up to 50 S/m (0.02 Ωm) in agreeement with up to 20% syngenetic graphite, forming a network of interconnected streaks or crack fillings. The high amount of carbon most probably originates from organic matter of Corg-rich black shales. Relative enrichment of the low mobility graphitic matter compared to the carbon content of the assumed protoliths may have been due to pressure solution and partial melting during prograde metamorphism, without major contribution of a fluid phase, resulting in isolated graphite flakes. Although enriched, graphite in this form has little effect on electrical conductivity. For the Calabrian black horizons, microscopic analyses make conceivable that, in a further decisive step, isolated graphite grains were mechanically smeared to continuous pathways during uplift by shearing, producing hereby the observed graphitic network which is needed to generate high conductivity. As Corg-rich black shales are common members of sedimentary sequences throughout the earth’s history, good conductors of this type may be expected in the continental crust at any depth depending on tectonic and metamorphic history, with the exception of magmatic protoliths. Regarding the extremely high conductivity of the meta-black shale samples containing syngenetic sheared graphite, a total thickness of a few meters of such rocks is sufficient to explain magnetotelluric high conductivity anomalies in the deep crust. 相似文献
