The effect of distribution of iron-oxyhydroxide grain coatings on the transport of bacterial cells in porous media 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3

Among the demonstrated processes influencing the transport of bacteria through aquifers, the deposition of cells on mineral
surfaces is one of the most important. For example, understanding the transport of introduced bacteria through aquifers is
essential to designing some in situ bioremediation schemes. The impact of the presence and distribution of Fe(III)-oxyhydroxide-coated
sand grains on bacterial transport through porous media was evaluated in column experiments in which bacteria (short rods;
1.2 μm length) were eluted through columns of quartz sand (0.5–0.6 mm in diameter) for several conditions of chemical heterogeneity
of mineral substrate. Fe(III)-oxyhydroxide-coated sand was present as 10% of the mass, and it was arranged in three treatments:
(1) homogeneously distributed, and present as a discrete layer (2) at the top and (3) at the bottom of 14-cm-long sand columns.
A pulse input of 108 cells ml–1 was introduced in an artificial groundwater solution flowing at 14 cm h–1 through the column, and eluted cells were counted. Peak breakthrough occurred at 1.0 pore volume. A large proportion of cells
were retained; 14.7–15.8% of the cells were recovered after three pore volumes of solution had eluted through clean quartz
sand, and only 2.1–4.0% were recovered from the Fe(III)-oxyhydroxide-coated sand mixtures. The three physical arrangements
of the chemical heterogeneity resulted in essentially the same breakthrough of cells, indicating that the spatial distribution
of iron coating does not affect the transport of bacteria. The results of the column transport experiments, which mimic hydrogeological
conditions encountered in field problems, are consistent with our mechanistic understanding of bacterial sorption.

An unusual phytoplankton bloom dominated by unidentified green coloured spherical algal cells (∼5μm diameter) and dinoflagellates
(Heterocapsa, Scripsiella and Gymnodinium) was encountered along the coast of Goa, India during 27 and 29 January, 2005. Pigment analysis was carried out using both
fluorometric and HPLC methods. Seawater samples collected from various depths within the intense bloom area showed high concentrations
of Chl a (up to 106 mg m − 3) associated with low bacterial production (0.31 to 0.52 mg C m − 3 h − 1) and mesozooplankton biomass (0.03 ml m − 3). Pigment analyses of the seawater samples were done using HPLC detected marker pigments corresponding to prasinophytes,
dinoflagellates and diatoms. Chlorophyll b (36–56%) followed by peridinin (15–30%), prasinoxanthin (11–17%) and fucoxanthin (7–15%) were the major diagnostic pigments
while pigments of cryptophytes and cyanobacteria including alloxanthin and zeaxanthin formed <10%. Although microscopic analysis
indicated a decline in the bloom, pheaophytin concentrations in the water column measured by both techniques were very low,
presumably due to fast recycling and/or settling rate. The unique composition of the bloom and its probable causes are discussed
in this paper. 相似文献

Nakka vagu, a tributary of the River Manjira in the Medak district of Andhra Pradesh, has a catchment area of ∼500 km2. Patancheru is an industrial development area (IDA) near the vagu. There are about 350 industries of varied nature (pulp,
plastic, bulk drugs, pharmaceuticals, paints and steel rolling mills) that are engaged in the manufacture/processing of their
respective products and that use water extensively. The hydrogeological setup has a bearing on the widespread contamination
in the area because of discharge of industrial effluents into open land and streams. Several dug wells and boreholes situated
in the study area have been monitored for water level fluctuations and quality variations. Pumping tests have been conducted
to evaluate aquifer parameters. The geology, drainage, chemistry and other related anthropogenic factors play a major role
in the spread of pollution in the area. Hence, it is very important to determine the degree of vulnerability to pollution
based on hydrogeological factors. Amidst the granite terrain, the Nakka vagu has been identified as a paleo-channel (composed
of clay–silt–sand facies); its presence in the area has immensely increased the spread of groundwater contamination. The transmissivity
of the alluvial aquifer varies from 750 to 1315 m2/day. The adjoining granite has a transmissivity that varies from 30–430 m2/day. The thickness of the valley fill in the discharge region is about 10–12 m, with a lateral spread of 500–700 m, east
of Nakka vagu.

Long Lake, located near Lake Michigan within the dune-complexes of Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore, USA, was formed some
time during the Pleistocene and Holocene epochs. A surficial aquifer underlies Long Lake, which is either a source or sink
for the later. The hydrologic processes in the lakeshore and surrounding environs have been significantly altered during the
agricultural, municipal, and industrial development of the region. Limited data suggest that the organisms of Long Lake have
elevated levels of several contaminants. This study attempts to quantify seepage within the lake to assess the potential threat
to groundwater quality. Seepage measurements and minipiezometric tests were used to determine seepage within the lake. Seepage
measurements and minipiezometric tests suggest that water seeps out of Long Lake, thus recharging the groundwater that flows
southwest away from the lake. There is a great deal of variability in the seepage rate, with a mean of 11.5×10–4±11.2×10–4 m d–1. The mean seepage rate of 0.3 m yr–1 for Long Lake is greater than the 0.2 m yr–1 recharge rate estimated for the drainage basin area. The Long Lake recharge volume of 2.5×105 m3 yr–1 is approximately 22% of the volume of the lake and is significant when compared to the total surface recharge volume of 4.8×105 m3 yr–1 to the upper aquifer of the drainage area. There is a potential for contamination of the groundwater system through seepage
from the lake from contaminants derived from aerial depositions.

Comparison of soil erosion and deposition rates using radiocesium, RUSLE, and buried soils in dolines in East Tennessee 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Three dolines (sinkholes), each representing different land uses (crop, grass, and forest) in a karst area in East Tennesse,
were selected to determine soil erosional and depositional rates. Three methods were used to estimate the rates: fallout radiocesium
(137Cs) redistribution, buried surface soil horizons (Ab horizon), and the revised universal soil loss equation (RUSLE). When
137Cs redistribution was examined, the average soil erosion rates were calculated to be 27 t ha–1 yr–1 at the cropland, 3 t ha–1 yr–1 at the grassland, and 2 t ha–1 yr–1 at the forest. By comparison, cropland erosion rate of 2.6 t ha–1 yr–1, a grassland rate of 0.6 t ha–1 yr–1, and a forest rate of 0.2 t ha–1 yr–1 were estimated by RUSLE. The 137Cs method expressed higher rates than RUSLE because RUSLE tends to overestimate low erosion rates and does not account for
deposition. The buried surface horizons method resulted in deposition rates that were 8 t ha–1 yr–1 (during 480 yr) at the cropland, 12 t ha–1 yr–1 (during 980 yr) at the grassland, and 4 t ha–1 yr–1 (during 101 yr) at the forest site. By examining 137Cs redistribution, soil deposition rates were found to be 23 t ha–1 yr–1 at the cropland, 20 t ha–1 yr–1 at the grassland, and 16 t ha–1 yr–1 at the forest site. The variability in deposition rates was accounted for by temporal differences;137Cs expressed deposition during the last 38 yr, whereas Ab horizons represented deposition during hundreds of years. In most
cases, land use affected both erosion and deposition rates – the highest rates of soil redistribution usually representing
the cropland and the lowest, the forest. When this was not true, differences in the rates were attributed to differences in
the size, shape, and closure of the dolines.

Marine contamination of groundwater may be caused by seawater intrusion and by salt spray. The role of both processes was
studied in the Cyclades archipelago on four small islands (45–195 km2) whose aquifers consist essentially of fractured, weathered metamorphic rocks. Annual rainfall ranges from 400 to 650 mm
and precipitation has high total dissolved solids contents of 45–223 mg l–1. The chemical characteristics of the groundwater, whose salinity is from 0.4 to 22 g l–1, are strongly influenced by seawater intrusion. However, the effect of atmospheric input is shown in certain water sampling
locations on high ground elevation where the dissolved chloride contents may attain 200 mg l–1.

The Mfolozi Estuary on the KwaZulu-Natal coast of South Africa is the most turbid estuary in Natal due to poor catchment
management, leading to large quantities of suspended particulate matter (SPM) entering the estuary from the Mfolozi River.
This paper quantities some of the solute and sediment dynamics in the Mfolozi Estuary where the main documented environmental
concern is the periodic input of SPM from the Mfolozi Estuary to the St. Lucia system, causing reduction of light penetration
and endangering biological productivity in this important nature reserve. Synoptic water level results have allowed reach
mean bed shear stresses and velocities to be calculated for an observed neap tidal cycle. Results indicate that ebb velocities
dominate the sediment transport processes in the estuary when fluvial input in the Mfolozi River is of the order of 15–20
m3 s–1. Observed and predicted flood tide velocities are too low (<0.35 m s–1) to suspend and transport significant amounts of SPM. Observed results indicate that although the SPM load entering the estuary
is dominantly from the Mfolozi River, the Msunduzi River flow plays a major role in the composition of the estuary's salinity
and velocity fields. It is calculated that the Mfolozi Estuary would fill with sediment in 1.3 years if it was cut off from
the sea. The major fluvial flood events help maintain the estuary by periodically pushing sediment seawards (spit progrades
seawards 5 m yr–1) and scouring and maintaining the main flow channel in the estuary. During low fluvial flow conditions, tidal flow velocities
will become the dominant control on sediment transport in the estuary. Interchange of SPM between the St. Lucia and Mfolozi
estuaries under present conditions is complicated by the strong transverse velocity shear between the two systems at their
combined mouth. This is creating a salinity-maintained axial convergence front that suppresses mixing of solutes and SPM between
the systems for up to 10 h of the tidal cycle during observed conditions.

The influence of sources of effluents on pollution of bottom sediments of the small Chechło River (23 km long, mean discharge
1.5 m3 s–1) in southern Poland was examined through analysis of heavy metals distribution in transverse and longitudinal cross sections.
Underground waters from a Pb–Zn mine cause very high concentrations of Zn, Cd, and Pb in both fractions investigated (<1 mm
and <0.063 mm) of sediments in the active channel zone, whereas sedimentation of huge amounts of suspended matter discharged
from oil refinery cause concentrations of heavy metals in fine fractions rather uniform in cross sections. In the lowest reach,
with relatively reduced contamination, the highest concentration both in fine and coarse fractions occurs close to the river
banks and in the deepest points of the channel. The lowest concentrations have been found at the points of strongest reworking
and accumulation of sandy material in the riverbed.

Time-of-flight laser-ionization mass spectrometry was applied to study the chemical composition of mineral particle surfaces
in a sulphide-rich mine-tailings impoundment. This surface-sensitive technique provides chemical information from surfaces
of irregularly shaped mineral particles (both conductive and insulators) less than 100 μm in diameter, which are considered
to be representative of particle surface coatings in the tailings pile (after drying). In addition, depth profiles in the
mineral particles were obtained. The combination of speed of analysis (1 min), small beam-diameter (2–4 μm), surface sensitivity
(2–10 nm), trace-element sensitivity, and capability to analyze rough surfaces makes this method useful as a complement to
studies of pore-water geochemistry and tailings mineralogy. As an example, the behavior of Pb and As in the Kidd Creek tailings
dam near Timmins, Ontario, Canada, was studied, using a combination of surface analyses, and pore-water geochemical data.

Hydrogeologic and hydrochemical framework of the shallow groundwater system in the southern Voltaian Sedimentary Basin, Ghana 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The southern Voltaian Sedimentary Basin underlies an area of about 5000 km2 in east-central Ghana. Groundwater in the basin occurs in fractures in highly consolidated siliciclastic aquifers overlain
by a thin unsaturated zone. Aquifer parameters were evaluated from available aquifer-test data on 28 shallow wells in the
basin. Hydraulic-conductivity values range from 0.04–3.6 m/d and are about two orders of magnitude greater than the hydraulic
conductivity calculated using Darcy's Law and the average groundwater velocity estimated from carbon-14 dating. Linear-regression
analysis of the transmissivity and specific-capacity data allowed the establishment of an empirical relationship between log
transmissivity and log specific capacity for the underlying aquifers.
Groundwater chemistry in the basin is controlled by the weathering of albitic plagioclase feldspar. The weathering rates of
various minerals were estimated using 14C-derived average velocity in the basin. The weathering rate of albite was calculated to be 2.16 μmol L–1 yr–1 with the resulting formation of 3.3 μmol L–1 yr–1 of kaolinite and 0.047 μmol L–1 yr–1 of calcite. The low porosity and permeability of the aquifers in the basin are attributed to the precipitation of secondary
minerals on fracture surfaces and interlayer pore spaces.

Spinel–peridotite facies mantle xenoliths in Cenozoic alkali basalts of the Pico Cabuji volcano (Rio Grande do Norte State,
Northeast Brazil) and the adjacent South Atlantic oceanic island of Fernando de Noronha are studied for: (1) the information
they provide on the composition of the lithospheric component in the erupted basalt geochemistry, and (2) to check the effects
of the Fernando de Noronha plume track on the mantle lithosphere. Xenoliths from Pico Cabuji are protogranular lherzolites
and porphyroclastic harzburgites recording average equilibrium temperatures of 825 ± 116 and 1248 ± 19 °C, respectively. Pressure
in the porphyroclastic xenoliths ranges from 1.9 to 2.7 GPa (Ca-in-olivine geobarometer). Both groups show major element chemical
variation trends in whole-rock and Ti and HREE (Er, Yb) variations in clinopyroxene consistent with fractional melting and
basalt extraction. REE (rare earth element) profiles of clinopyroxenes vary from LREE (La, Ce) enriched (spoon shaped) to
LREE depleted in the protogranular group, whereas they are slightly convex upward in most porphyroclastic clinopyroxenes.
HFSE (Ti and Zr) negative anomalies are in general modest in the clinopyroxenes of both groups. Xenoliths from Fernando de
Noronha have textural variations similar to those of Pico Cabuji. Protogranular and porphyroclastic samples have similar temperature
(1035 ± 80 °C) and the pressure is 1–1.9 and 2.3 GPa, respectively. Whole-rock chemical variation trends overlap and extend
further than those of Pico Cabuji. The trace element profiles of the clinopyroxenes of the porphyroclastic xenoliths are enriched
in La up to 30 × PM and are smoothly fractionated from LREE to HREE, with deep, negative, Zr and Ti anomalies. The geochemical
heterogeneities of the xenoliths from both localities are interpreted in terms of reactive porous percolation. The porphyroclastic
xenoliths from Pico Cabuji represent the lower part of a mantle column (the head of a mantle diapir, at the transition conductive–adiabatic
mantle), where OIB infiltration triggers melting, and the protogranular xenoliths the top of the mantle column, chromatographically
enriched by percolation at a low melt/rock ratio. This interpretation may also apply for Fernando de Noronha, but the different
geochemical signature recorded by the clinopyroxenes requires a different composition of the infiltrated melt. Nd and Sr isotopes
of the Pico Cabuji porphyroclastic clinopyroxenes (143Nd/144Nd= 0.51339–0.51255, 87Sr/86Sr=0.70275–0.70319) and of Fernando de Noronha (143Nd/144Nd=0.51323–0.51285, 87Sr/86Sr=0.70323–0.70465) plot on distinct arrays originating from a similar, isotopically depleted composition and trending to
low Nd–low Sr (EMI) and low Nd–high Sr (EMII), respectively. Correlation of the isotope variation with geochemical parameters
indicates that the isotopic variation was induced by the metasomatic component, of EMI type at Pico Cabuji and of EMII type
at Fernando de Noronha. These different components enriched a lithosphere isotopically similar to DMM (depleted MORB mantle)
at both localities. At Fernando de Noronha, the isotopic signature of the metasomatic component is similar to that of the
∼ 8 Ma old lavas of the Remedios Formation, suggesting that this is the age of metasomatism. At Pico Cabuji, the mantle xenoliths
do not record the high 87Sr/86Sr component present in the basalts. We speculate that the EMII component derives from a lithospheric reservoir, which was
not thermally affected during mantle metasomatism at Pico Cabuji, but was mobilized by the hotspot thermal influence at Fernando
de Noronha. This interpretation provides a plausible explanation for the presence of distinct metasomatic components at the
two localities, which would be difficult to reconcile with their genetic relationship with the same plume.

Contrasting P-T conditions recorded in ultramafic high-pressure rocks from the Variscan Schwarzwald (F.R.G.) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Angelika Kalt Rainer Altherr Michael Hanel 《Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology》1995,121(1):45-60
This paper presents mineralogical and textural data as well as thermobarometric calculations on ultramafic high-pressure
rocks from the Variscan basement of the Schwarzwald (F.R.G.). The rocks form small isolated bodies within low-pressure / high-temperature
gneisses and migmatites. The results of this study constrain contrasting P-T evolutions for four garnet-bearing ultramafic high-pressure rocks. Two magnesian garnet-spinal peridotites sampled near the
southern margin of the Central Schwarzwald Gneiss Complex (CSGC) were equilibrated at 670–740° C and 1.4–1.8 GPa. These P-T conditions are similar to those recorded by eclogites intercalated in the same basement unit. Two garnet websterites sampled
from the northern part of the CSGC have comparatively low Mg/(Mg+Fe) and low Cr and Ni abundances and are interpreted as former
cumulates. These rocks most probably experienced an initial high-temperature stage within the spinel peridotite stability
field, followed by re-equilibration at 740–850° C / 3.2–4.3 GPa and subsequent recrystallization at lower pressures. Further petrologic studies have to reveal whether ultramafic
high-pressure rocks of the Schwarzwald can generally be assigned to these two groups which are mainly defined by contrasting
peak pressures.

Diamonds and their syngenetic mineral inclusions from placer deposits (Akwatia mine) along the Birim River, Ghana were studied,
thus providing the first detailed data collection for the West African Craton. Inclusion contents indicate an almost exclusively
peridotitic diamond suite, with the vast majority being part of the harzburgitic paragenesis. Chemically the Akwatian diamond
inclusions differ from those in our 1100 sample world-wide data base mainly by shifts towards lower Mg/Fe ratios for harzburgitic
olivines and orthopyroxenes, extremely high Ni contents in both harzburgitic and lherzolitic olivines, and a higher mean Cr
content in chromites. The inconsistency between the low Mg/Fe ratios and the highly refractory compatible trace element signature
seems best to be explained by re-fertilisation of a previously depleted source, similar to the metasomatic re-enrichment of
deformed, Fe-Ti-rich and hot peridotites discussed by Harte (1983). Geothermometry shows Akwatian inclusions to be 140–190 °C
hotter than the peridotitic average (1050 °C) given by Harris (1992). Since garnet-opx equilibria (1100 °C/50 kbar to 1370 °C/67
kbar) indicate a typical shield geotherm (40–42 mW/m2), these elevated temperatures imply an origin of the Akwatian diamonds unusually deep for a peridotitic suite. This is consistent
with the presence of extraordinary amounts of silicate spinel component in chromite inclusions, indicative of crystallisation
under higher pressures than recorded for most peridotitic suites. In addition, one garnet showed the highest knorringite component
(66.4 mol%) so far observed in an inclusion in diamond. The same garnet also contained a minor enstatite solid-solution component,
which indicates crystallisation at pressures just below 80 kbar. Akwatian diamond inclusions, therefore, represent the most
complete cross-section through peridotitic subcontinental lithospheric upper mantle so far observed, down to a maximum depth
between 200–240 km.

We have determined the quenched cation ordering states of five orthopyroxene crystals collected from the marginal border
group and the lower zone a and b of the Skaergaard intrusion, and modeled these data to retrieve their closure temperatures
(T
c) of Fe–Mg ordering and cooling rates. According to existing thermal models for the Skaergaard pluton, conductive cooling
dominated the high and low temperature regimes, which were separated by an intermediate temperature regime in which the cooling
was controlled primarily by convective fluid circulation. The cooling rates retrieved from the quenched cation ordering states
of the orthopyroxene crystals strictly apply to temperatures around the closure temperatures of the ordering states, ∼340–400° C, which fall at the transition from convective to the lower temperature conductive cooling. The cooling rates obtained from
the cation ordering states of orthopyroxene vary from ∼1 to 270 K/ka. These results agree well with a thermal model calculated
using an assumed average permeability of 10-12 cm2 for the pluton, but not completely with a model calculated on the basis of an average permeability of 10-13 cm2, although both values produced shifts of δ18O that are comparable to those observed in the pluton.

Summary Major element, trace element, Sr- and Nd-isotopes and mineral chemical data are reported for alkaline rocks (lamprophyres,
tephrites, melanephelinites, nephelinites and nepheline syenites) cross-cutting the Deccan Trap lava flows south (Murud-Janjira
area) and north of Mumbai (Bassein). These rocks range from sodic to potassic and have a large span in MgO (12–2 wt%). The
lamprophyres have high content of incompatible elements (e.g., TiO2 > 3.8 wt%, Nb > 130 ppm, Zr > 380 ppm, Ba > 1200 ppm), and relatively high initial (at 65 Ma) 143Nd/144Nd (0.5128) and low 87Sr/86Sr (0.7038–0.7042). They are likely to be small-degree melts (2–3%) of volatile- and incompatible element-enriched mantle
sources, similar to other alkaline rocks in the northern Deccan, though slightly more potassium-rich. The nepheline-rich rocks
have highly porphyritic textures (up to 57% phenocrysts of diopside ± olivine), and anomalously low contents of incompatible
elements (e.g., TiO2 < 1.3 wt%, Nb < 24 ppm, Zr < 100 ppm) indicating that they could not represent liquid compositions. Moreover, their very
low initial 143Nd/144Nd ratios (0.5116–0.5120), at 87Sr/86Sr = 0.7045–0.7049, are unusual in the rocks related to the Deccan Traps and identify a new end-member in this province, that
could be identified as “Lewisian-type” lower crust and/or enriched mantle. The melting episode that generated these alkaline
rocks likely occurred close to the base of the ca. 100 km-thick Indian lithosphere, very shortly after the main eruption of
the Deccan tholeiites.

The expansivity of supercooled diopside liquid has been determined using techniques of container-based dilatometry. Two thermal
strategies have been employed, one in which the sample is brought to volumetric equilibrium by long-duration dwells at low
temperatures (817 °C) and one in which scanning dilatometry of the sample has been performed at somewhat higher temperatures
(890–913 °C). The results of both experiments yield a supercooled liquid expansivity for diopside liquid in the temperature
range of 817–913 °C of 84.4 ± 2.8 × 10−4 cm3/mol K. The expansivity is 65% higher than that obtained for diopside melt obtained at superliquidus temperatures using the
double bob Archimedean method. Combined fitting of the new low temperature, volume–temperature data from the present study
and the superliquidus data from the literature has been performed. The combined fit yields the following equations for the
volume–temperature relationship of diopside liquid (T=temperature in °C):
The standard error of the fit using both equations reproduces the volume–temperature data for diopside liquid within experimental
error. This result reconciles the disparate values of expansivity measured at low temperatures in the supercooled state and
at superliquidus temperatures and confirms the temperature-dependence of the expansivity of diopside liquid. Comparison with
previous low temperature estimates of melt volume and expansivity are discussed in light of these new results.

The Alto Guadalentín detrital aquifer is both overexploited and polluted. Water conductivity ranges between 1200 and 4900
μS cm–1, HCO3
– between 1000 and 1990 mg l–1, and PCO2 between 0.041 and 1.497 bars. The temperature and chemical composition of the water show a positive thermal anomaly directly
attributable to the neotectonic activity in the area. The high CO2 content has caused the abandonment of numerous wells due to water corrosiveness which attacks pumping equipment.

The environmental conditions prevailing in the Chicam-Toctina drainage system (approx. 138 km2 in Córdoba, Argentina) are considered representative of a number of catchments in Argentina's Sierras Pampeanas Range. Two
groups of ions reflect the sources of dissolved species in the catchment: a) a group (Cl–, SO2–
4, and Na+) which recognizes natural and anthropogenic sources, and which exhibits significant correlations with N–
3 and NO–
2, and b) another group of components (Ca2+, Mg2+, and HCO–
3) which is clearly controlled by carbonate rocks and their waste rock products. In the headwaters, stockpiled marble quarry
mining wastes provide a more open system to CO2 gaseous exchange than the outcropping rocks, thus promoting the increase of carbonate dissolution (up to 4.88 g km–2 s–1 during the rainy season). This specific yield was 20% higher than the amount estimated for an area with fewer extended mining
activities. The dissolved load delivered by the upper reaches is subjected in the lower drainage area to various processes,
mainly controlled by the presence of the city of Alta Gracia (approx. 40,000 inhabitants). In the dry season, due to nutrient
inputs supplied by the city, photosynthetic activity plays a major role controlling stream pH. Hence, the high values of calcite
saturation indexes and the increase of CaCO3 concentration in bed sediments can be explained by calcite precipitation. Such a process could be accompanied by the coprecipitation
on calcium carbonate of low solubility heavy metal carbonates.

Agronomic impact of tephra fallout from the 1995 and 1996 Ruapehu Volcano eruptions, New Zealand 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Eruptions from Ruapehu Volcano on 11 and 14 October 1995 and 17 June 1996 distributed at least 36×106 m3 of sulphur(S)-rich tephra over the central and eastern North Island of New Zealand. The tephras added between 30–1500 kg
ha–1 S to at least 25 000 km2 of land in primary production. Smaller but beneficial amounts of selenium (Se) and in some areas potassium and magnesium
were also supplied. Addition of S to the soils in the form of sulphate and elemental S resulted in a drop in soil pH and an
increase in pasture S contents within seven weeks of the eruptions. The soils affected by the tephra are naturally low in
S and Se, but following the eruptions S was not required in fertilizer applications in many areas. The strongest and longest
lasting effects of S and Se deposition were in high anion-retention soils particularly Hapludands (moist, moderately weathered
soils, derived from volcanic ash). Soluble fluorine concentrations within the tephras were low compared to historic Icelandic
and Chilean examples. However, pastoral livestock deaths were apparently caused by fluorosis in addition to starvation when
tephra covered feed. The Ruapehu tephra contained very low concentrations of other soluble toxic elements.

OH vibrational range in search of the occurrence, energy and intensity of the v
OH bands of hydroxyl defects in such garnets and its potential use in an elucidation of the nature of the fluid phase in the
mantle beneath the Siberian platform. The v
OH single-crystal spectra show either one or a combination of two or more of the following major v
OH bands, I 3645–3662 cm−1, II 3561–3583 cm−1, III 3515–3527 cm−1, and minor bands, Ia 3623–3631 cm−1, IIa 3593–3607 cm−1. The type of combination of such bands in the spectrum of a specific garnet depends on the type of the rock series of the
host xenolith, Mg, Mg-Ca, Ca, Mg-Fe, or alkremite, on the xenolith type as well as on the chemical composition of the respective
garnet. Nearly all garnets contain band systems I and II. Band system III occurs in Ti-rich garnets, with wt% TiO2 > ca. 0.4, from xenoliths of the Mg-Ca and Mg-Fe series, only. The v
OH spectra do not correspond to those of OH− defects in synthetic pyropes or natural ultra-high pressure garnets from diamondiferous metamorphics. There were no indications
of v
OH from inclusions of other minerals within the selected 60 × 60 μm measuring areas in the garnets. The v
OH spectra of pyrope-knorringite- and pyrope-knorringite-uvarovite-rich garnets included in diamonds do not show band systems
I to III. Instead, they exhibit one weak, broad band (Δv
OH 200–460 cm−1) near 3570 cm−1, a result that was also obtained on pyrope-knorringite-rich garnets extracted from two olivine megacrysts. The quantitative
evaluation, on the basis of relevant existing calibrational data (Bell et al. 1995), of the sum of integral intensities of
all v
OH bonds of the garnets studied yielded a wide range of “water” concentrations within the set of the different garnets, between
values below the detection limit of our single-crystal IR method, near 2 × 10−4 wt%, up to 163 × 10−4 wt%. The “water” contents vary in a complex manner in garnets from different xenolith types, obviously depending on a large
number of constraints, inherent in the crystal chemistry as well as the formation conditions of the garnets during the crystallization
of their mantle host rocks. Secondary alteration effects during uplift of the kimberlite, play, if any, only a minor role.
Despite the very complex pattern of the “water” contents of the garnets, preventing an evaluation of a straightforward correlation
between “water” contents of the garnets and the composition of the mantle's fluid phase during garnet formation, at least
two general conclusions could be drawn: (1) the wide variation of “water” contents in garnets is not indicative of regional
or local differences in the composition of the mantle's fluid phase; (2) garnets formed in the high-pressure/high-temperature
diamond-pyrope facies invariably contain significantly lower amounts of “water” than garnets formed under the conditions of
the graphite-pyrope facies. This latter result (2) may point to significantly lower f
H2O and f
O2 in the former as compared to the latter facies.
