Detailed geologic mapping, structural analysis, field cross-sections, new dating based on planktonic foraminifera, in addition to gravity signature of Lorbeus diapir, are used to characterize polyphase salt diapirism. This study highlights the role of inherited faulting, which controls and influences the piercement efficiency and the style and geometry of the diapir; and also the localization of evaporite early ascent displaying diapiric growth during extension. Salt was extruded along the graben axis developed within extensional regional early Cretaceous tectonic associated with the North African passive margin evolution. Geologic data highlight reactive diapirism during Albian time (most extreme extension period) and passive diapirism during the late Cretaceous post-rift stage. Northeastern Maghreb salt province gives evidences that contractional deformations are not associated with significant diapirism. During shortening, the initial major graben deforms as complex anticlines where diapirs are squeezed and pinched from their feeding. 相似文献

Understanding and predicting surface movement is important both technically and for social reasons. The shallow processes
contributing to subsidence include construction works, peat oxidation, clay compaction, and groundwater withdrawal; deep causes
are hydrocarbon and salt production. We describe an inversion procedure we have devised to disentangle the deep and shallow
causes of surface movement. It employs a Bayesian inversion scheme, using forward models and other ‘a priori’ information
about shallow and deep compaction. Parameter estimation thus takes place at two different depths, thereby disentangling the
deep and shallow compaction processes responsible for surface movement. The uncertainty in the surface measurements and ‘a
priori’ estimates is naturally incorporated. Furthermore, spatial and temporal correlations can be taken into account through
inclusion of the covariance matrix. The inversion scheme is demonstrated for two synthetic cases. The first combines a compacting
gas field and a compacting shallow peat layer. We demonstrate that assumptions on the shape of the subsidence bowl are not
necessary. We also show how neglecting either deep or shallow causes of subsidence can produce spurious results. The advantage
of using the ‘a priori’ estimates of the compaction and the covariance matrix obtained by Monte Carlo simulations is demonstrated
with a second synthetic example involving two polders and different depths of their water table. A robust solution is obtained
for each polder unit, while a simpler (and faster) ‘a priori’ estimate based on the expected average clay thickness fails
to reproduce the actual compaction. Monte Carlo simulations can also be applied to compaction in depleting gas reservoirs.
Information on spatial correlations is often available, even when the absolute values of the ‘a priori’ compaction data are
quite uncertain. Explicitly incorporating such ‘a priori’ known spatial correlations improves the result significantly. 相似文献

The subsurface Nagaur Basin in northwest Haryana and southwest Punjab hosts evaporite sequence, conformably overlain by Nagaur
red beds and grey beds. A polymictic conglomerate intervenes the Nagaur sequence and the overlying Tertiary sequence. The
focus is on the new finds of (i) distinctive ‘grey beds’ overlying ubiquitous red beds, (ii) ‘Malout conglomerate and grit’
horizon (Palaeocene-Miocene) marking an unconformity over the Nagaur Group (early Cambrian) and (iii) ‘entrapped gas and dried-up
leaves/carbonaceous flakes’ in the conglomerate unit and succeeding Tertiary rocks. Palaeoenvironmental significance has been
discussed. The Nagaur ‘red beds’ has been likened to ‘continental red beds’ of Schreiber (1978) and ‘reworked red beds’ of
Krynine (1949). The ‘grey beds’ are channel fillings, fresh material having been derived from fresh cuttings by streams/rivers
following structural grains in the Aravalli landscape where the interfluves provided weathered (oxidised) materials for the
red beds. Association of continental red beds and grey beds is known in the Newark Series (Triassic) of the Eastern United
States and the Keweenawan ‘late Precambrian’ of the Lake Superior region. 相似文献

Salt exposures and weathering residuum on several salt diapirs in different geographic/climatic settings were studied. Anhydrite,
gypsum, hematite, calcite, dolomite, quartz, and clay minerals are the main constituents of the weathering residuum covering
the salt diapirs in various thicknesses. Erosion rates of residuum as well as of rock salt exposures were measured at selected
sites for a period of 5 years by plastic pegs as benchmarks. Recorded data were standardized to a horizontal surface and to
long-term mean precipitation. For the rock salt exposures the following long-term denudation rates were determined of 30–40 mm a−1 for coastal diapirs and up to 120 mm a−1 for mountain salt diapirs. Long-term mean superficial denudation rate measured on weathering residuum of low thickness reached
3.5 mm a−1 on coastal diapirs. The total denudation rate estimated for the thin residuum is close to 4–7 mm a−1 based on apparent correlation with the uplift rate on Hormoz and Namakdan diapirs. Denudation of rock salt exposures is much
faster compared to parts of diapirs covered by weathering residuum. The extent of salt exposures is an important factor in
the morphological evolution of salt diapirs as it can inhibit further expansion of the diapir. Salt exposures produce huge
amounts of dissolved and clastic load, thus affecting the surrounding of the diapir. 相似文献

Sensitivity experiments are conducted for three cases of cyclones for investigating the impact of different vortex initialization
schemes on the structure and track prediction of the cyclone using India Meteorological Department’s Limited Area Model. The
surface wind and pressure profiles generated using Holland and Rankine initialization schemes differ from each other. These
different generated profiles are compared with the actual data and the root mean square error (RMSE) was calculated between
them. In case of the Holland vortex, ‘b’ is found to be equal to 1.5 and 2.0 respectively for two cases of very severe cyclonic storms in the Arabian Sea, namely
6–10 June 1998 and 16–20 May 1999 and 2.25 for the severe cyclonic storm in the Bay of Bengal. The ‘α’ parameter in Rankine’s
scheme was found to be 0.5 for two cases and 0.4 for the third system. This shows that cyclones differ even if they attain
the same intensity. The values of these parameters i.e. ‘b’ and ‘α’ are used for generating the synthetic wind data for individual cyclones and the same is used in the data assimilation
system. The analysis and forecast generated for the above cases using the Holland scheme show that the simulated structure
has characteristics closer to the actual storm; however, the Rankine scheme shows a weaker circulation. The mean track error
for three cases in the Holland scheme is 93, 149, 257 and 307 km in 12-, 24-, 36- and 48-h forecast. The mean track errors
for the Rankine scheme are 152, 274, 345 and 327 km, respectively, for the same period. 相似文献

Track prediction of very severe cyclone ‘Nargis’ using high resolution weather research forecasting (WRF) model 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The recent very severe cyclonic storm (VSCS) ‘Nargis’ over the Bay of Bengal caused widespread destruction over Myanmar after
hitting the coast on 2 May 2008. The real time forecasting of the VSCS ‘Nargis’ was a very difficult task as it did not follow
the normal westerly/northwesterly track. In the present study, a detailed diagnostic analysis of the system ‘Nargis’ is carried
out initially to investigate the features associated with this unusual movement and subsequently the real time forecast of
VSCS ‘Nargis’ using high resolution advanced version weather research forecasting (WRF) model is presented. The advanced research
WRF model was run for 72 h at 27 km and 20 km resolutions with 28, 29, 30 April and 1 May as the initial conditions. The diagnostic
study indicates that the recurvature of the system ‘Nargis’ was mainly associated with:
The real time track forecast using the WRF model run at 27 km and 20 km resolution based on the initial conditions of 28 April
(when the system was only 550 km away from the Indian coast) indicated that the system had a northeasterly forecast track
and was not expected to cross the Indian coast. Similarly, based on 29 April initial condition the system showed east/east-northeasterly
movement towards the Myanmar coast. The east/east-northeasterly movement of the ‘Nargis’ was persisting in the forecast based
on 30 April and 1 May initial conditions with respective landfall errors of 85 km and 50 km with 27 km resolution, which reduces
to 30 km and 40 km respectively with 20 km resolution, however, with a landfall time delay of about 10 h. Improvement of mean
forecast errors at different forecast hours is noticed in WRF model run at higher resolution compared to that run at lower
resolution. Thus, it is very clear that the advanced version WRF model had captured movement of the system reasonably well
almost 3 days in advance. Consistence with the diagnostic analysis the WRF model forecast also indicates southerly/southwesterly
strong steering wind at 200 hPa level and maximum pressure fall to the east of the system. 相似文献

A new point of view describing processes of partial melting and development of gravitational instability in a thickening crust
with increased thickness of the granite layer is suggested. Numeral experiments support the following main conclusions. The
critical volume of partially melted material should be formed for the beginning of flotation in a gravitational field. Due
to model estimations, the height of the melting area in the granite crust should be not less than 6–7 km. A mushroom-shaped
form of the floating body was observed in all models regardless of the thermal source size (fixed or variable width): the
high temperature channel (magma leader) and head body of the diapir are formed. The height of diapir floating depends on rheological
features of the surrounding crust: 10 times increase in the yield strength (from 1 to 10 MPa) while temperature decrease confines
the possible level of rising to a depth of 15–16 km. An elevation of about 750 m is formed in the day surface relief above
the axis part of the diapir. 相似文献

Deep-rooted enigmatic piercement structures in sedimentary basins, including ‘mud volcanoes’, ‘shale diapirs’, ‘salt diapirs’, and ‘asphalt volcanoes’, range in size from less than 1 km2, surface area, up to 64 km2, and have often an unknown depth of penetration due to incomplete imaging. We propose that they form a family associated with fluid flow. Our argument is based partly on their inferred location (above deep faults) and on the chemical analysis of emitted products, which includes liquid clays, brines and other substances from salt diapirs, and asphalt and light oils from the asphalt volcanoes. We explain these compositions by chemical alteration caused partly by supercritical water, a phase of water existent at high pressure and temperature, locally and temporarily achieved at depths generally beyond 10 km below surface, i.e., at the sediment–crust boundary. Our hypothesis overcomes some of the problems with interpreting fluid flow products, which are otherwise very difficult to explain. In case this hypothesis can be further verified, the family could perhaps be called ‘hydrothermally associated piercement structures’. 相似文献

This study demonstrates that a hydrous, halide bearing silicate melt is a viable medium for diamond growth. Experiments were
conducted in the MgO–SiO2–H2O–C ± KCl ± NaCl system, which was used as a model for harzburgitic mantle. In no case did we observe crystals that could
be interpreted as spontaneously nucleated, but growth of diamond on seed crystals at 1,400–1,600°C and 7 GPa in experiments
of 4 h duration was observed. The addition of KCl to the system produced crystallization of diamond at temperatures as low
as 1,400°C. At higher temperatures, larger growth features were produced than those that seen in the KCl-free system at the
same conditions. The NaCl-bearing system is different; in these experiments, the diamond seed crystals show evidence of possible
dissolution and layer growth, albeit more subdued growth than in the KCl system. Therefore, NaCl may be an inhibitor of diamond
growth in a hydrous silicate melt. Based on these results, hydrous silicate melts could play a role in formation of diamond
in either deep subduction zones, or above slabs imbricated against a lithospheric ‘root’ in the sub-continental lithospheric
mantle. The water and halide necessary for their formation could be transported into the mantle in hydrous phases such as
serpentine in subducting lithospheric slabs. Dehydration of serpentine at >200 km depth would release hydrous, halide-bearing
fluids into the overlying mantle wedge or lithospheric root, triggering melting at conditions similar to those of the formation
of natural diamond. 相似文献

金坛盐矿老腔储气库长期稳定性分析数值模拟 总被引:10,自引:3,他引:7
盐穴储气库作为油气储气库的主要类型之一,已经在发达国家普遍采用。随着“西气东输”工程的进行以及天然气工业的不断发展,我国将会有更多的盐穴地下储气库建成并投入运行,因此怎样科学合理地分析盐穴储气库的稳定性已显得越来越重要。利用国际上著名的有限差分软件FLAC3D,对金坛盐矿某区老腔1号井、2号井建库完成后的腔体稳定性以及腔体蠕变规律进行了数值模拟,模拟结果表明,储气库在运行期间,流变会引起溶腔体积的减少,溶腔内压对储库的体积减少有直接的作用。并且利用该软件确定了储气库的运行压力在6 MPa~14.5 MPa之间,溶腔的体积缩小率在22 %以内,为储气库的修建及管理提供了指导依据。 相似文献

Probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for Bangalore 总被引:5,自引:3,他引:2
This article presents the results of probabilistic seismic hazard analysis (PSHA) for Bangalore, South India. Analyses have
been carried out considering the seismotectonic parameters of the region covering a radius of 350 km keeping Bangalore as
the center. Seismic hazard parameter ‘b’ has been evaluated considering the available earthquake data using (1) Gutenberg–Richter (G–R) relationship and (2) Kijko
and Sellevoll (1989, 1992) method utilizing extreme and complete catalogs. The ‘b’ parameter was estimated to be 0.62 to 0.98 from G–R relation and 0.87 ± 0.03 from Kijko and Sellevoll method. The results
obtained are a little higher than the ‘b’ values published earlier for southern India. Further, probabilistic seismic hazard analysis for Bangalore region has been
carried out considering six seismogenic sources. From the analysis, mean annual rate of exceedance and cumulative probability
hazard curve for peak ground acceleration (PGA) and spectral acceleration (Sa) have been generated. The quantified hazard
values in terms of the rock level peak ground acceleration (PGA) are mapped for 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years
on a grid size of 0.5 km × 0.5 km. In addition, Uniform Hazard Response Spectrum (UHRS) at rock level is also developed for
the 5% damping corresponding to 10% probability of exceedance in 50 years. The peak ground acceleration (PGA) value of 0.121 g
obtained from the present investigation is slightly lower (but comparable) than the PGA values obtained from the deterministic
seismic hazard analysis (DSHA) for the same area. However, the PGA value obtained in the current investigation is higher than
PGA values reported in the global seismic hazard assessment program (GSHAP) maps of Bhatia et al. (1999) for the shield area. 相似文献

The Kristallbrocken are a characteristic centimetre- to decimetre-sized, laminated halite fabric type occurring in the Stassfurt Formation in
the Zechstein Basin. Up to now, the nature of the Kristallbrocken, i.e. if they are relics of fine-grained, polycrystalline halite beds or clasts of ‘single crystal-layers’, as well as the
deformation mechanisms of this halite type, were not clear from the literature. Drill core material from the salt deposit
Teutschenthal at the southern rim of the Zechstein Basin now allowed investigating less intensely deformed samples for the
first time. The deformational behaviour of these Kristallbrocken ranges from brittle to ductile, which is evidenced by fractured Kristallbrocken on the one hand and weakly bent or even folded Kristallbrocken on the other hand. Local X-ray texture measurements demonstrated that the Kristallbrocken are definitely single crystals and that they can be regarded as relics of formerly larger ‘single crystal-layers’ of up to
several dm2 in size. The folded Kristallbrocken clearly display by their single grain texture characteristics that their crystal lattice is bent, which was most likely enabled
by a kind of flexural-shear folding, and did not develop after deformation from a fine-grained aggregate by recrystallisation.
Due to their monocrystallinity, their originally large size, and the solid inclusions forming the internal lamination, the
Kristallbrocken have clearly stronger rheological properties than the surrounding fine- to coarse-grained polycrystalline rock salt, and
thus also deform by fracturing. 相似文献

Geophysical investigation for shallow subsurface geotechnical problems of Mokattam area,Cairo, Egypt
Sultan Awad Sultan Araffa 《Environmental Earth Sciences》2010,59(6):1195-1207
Nine vertical electrical soundings of Schlumberger configuration were measured with AB/2 = 1–500 m. Manual and computerized interpretation were done to detect the subsurface stratigraphy of the study area. The
results show that the subsurface section consists of alternated units of limestone, clay, marly limestone and dolomitic limestone
and the thickness of clay unit ranged from 10 to 40 m. Nine dipole–dipole sections have also been constructed to give a clearer
picture of the subsurface at the study area. The length of each dipole–dipole section is 235 m, with a electrode spacing ranging
between 5 and 25 m. The Res2Dinv software was used for processing and interpretation of field data. The dipole–dipole sections
at the upper plateau display high resistivity values at most parts of the plateau. Twelve shallow seismic refraction profiles
are measured at selected locations for the dipole sections to define the interface between the fractured limestone and the
upper surface of the clay layer. Each profile consists of 24 geophones with a geophone spacing of 2–3 m. Interpretation of
seismic data indicates that the surface layer of the upper plateau consists of fractured limestone with a velocity range of
1.16–1.56 km/s and another layer of compacted clay with a velocity range of 1.38–1.88 km/s. Furthermore, the surface layer
of the middle plateau consists of marl and marly limestone with a velocity about 2.1 km/s and its underlying layer consists
of massive limestone with a velocity of 4.94 km/s. 相似文献

Environmental isotopic and hydrochemical study of groundwater in the Ejina Basin,northwest China 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The study investigates the groundwater evolution and its residence time in the Ejina Basin, northwest China according to isotope
and hydrochemical analyses results. The groundwater chemistry is mainly controlled by the dissolution of halite, Glauber’s
salt, gypsum, dolomite and calcite, also influenced by other processes such as evaporation, ion exchange, and deposition.
Based on tritium content in atmospheric precipitation and by adopting a model with exponential time distribution function,
the mean residence time of the unconfined aquifer groundwater with fairly high tritium activities (21–49 TU) is evaluated.
The results show that these groundwaters have low residence time (5–120 years) and are renewable. In contrast, the deep confined
groundwaters are tritium-free and radiocarbon values range from 18.3 to 26.7 pmc. According to the most commonly used 14C correction models, the radiocarbon groundwater ages were calculated which yield ages of approximately 4,087–9,364 years
BP. Isotopic signatures indicate formation of deep confined groundwaters in a colder and wetter climate during the late Pleistocene
and Holocene. It is suggested that long-term, rational water usage guide should be set up for the Heihe River Basin as a whole
to permit a considerable discharge to the Ejina Basin. 相似文献

In a former industrial part of Barcelona, as in the de-industrialising neighbourhoods of many big cities, the ‘new’ economy
and the ‘cultural’ economy have started to replace the ‘old’ economy, bringing new life into a declining district but also
causing conflicts of land use, housing or the preservation of architectural heritage. The latter is an important part of regeneration
and marketing policies of city governments, whereby the ‘new’ economy not only emerges from the old but the physical space
of the old industrial quarter becomes the tool and setting in which the city can re-present itself and its success story of
transformation and regeneration. Through the increasing use of information and communication technologies, which are at the
same time driving this transformation - an industry as such as well as business-aid in various sectors, cultural industries
in particular - the city has acquired a second, virtual presence. The city exists and ‘lives’ on numerous websites. Those
by city government and city organisations often have the express purpose of marketing and presenting the city, while those
by (cultural) businesses and other organisations in the district add to the mosaic of the virtual city. As a result, the old
industrial space continues to live and be productive, its economic value having changed largely into a cultural value. This
coexistence of the real and the virtual, old and new, also meets with a conflict at certain junctures. There is the positive
representation of plans and events on the city's websites on the one hand, and the undercurrent of protest and disenchantment
among the local population who find themselves marginalised from the profits and success of development, on the other.

The Anita Peridotite, in southwestern New Zealand, is a ∼1 × 20 km ultramafic massif that was rapidly extruded from beneath a Cretaceous arc within the 4 km wide mylonitic Anita Shear Zone. The peridotitic body contains a spectacular array of textures that preserve evidence for changing temperature, stress, and deformation mechanisms during the exhumation process. Olivine and orthopyroxene microstructures and lattice-preferred orientations (LPO) record a three-phase deformation history. Dislocation glide on the C- and E-type slip systems is recorded by coarse pre-mylonitised olivine grains, and occurred under hydrous conditions at T ∼650 °C, stress ∼200–700 MPa and strain rate ∼10−15 s−1, probably within hydrated sub-arc mantle lithosphere. Rare protomylonite pods record deformation by dislocation creep in porphyroclasts and dislocation-accommodated grain boundary sliding in the matrix on {0kl}[100] in olivine and (100)[001] in orthopyroxene, under conditions of T ∼730–770 °C, stress ∼52–700 MPa and strain rate ∼10−15 s−1. The massif, however, is dominated by mylonite and ultramylonite that wrap the protomylonite pods, comprising mostly fine-grained olivine neoblasts that lack internal distortions and have uniform LPOs. These textures indicate deformation occurred by grain-size sensitive (GSS) creep at T ∼650 °C, stress ∼69–137 MPa and strain rate ∼10−15 s−1, and thus during conditions of cooling and decreasing stress. GSS creep became more dominant with time, as the proportion of randomly-oriented neoblasts increased and formed interlinked networks that accommodated much of the strain. Grain boundary pinning allowed GSS creep to be maintained in polyphase regions, following mixing of olivine and orthopyroxene, which may have occurred by grain boundary transport in a fluid phase during a “creep cavitation” process. The results indicate that the Anita Peridotite recrystallised and underwent rheological weakening at a constant strain rate, with strain distributed across the entire section. This widespread deformation caused rapid exhumation of the peridotite from the lithospheric mantle into the overlying arc crust. The massif therefore records multiple overprinting phases of deformation under mantle and crustal conditions associated with the rapid exhumation of a large orogenic peridotite. 相似文献

The 1995 eruption of Fogo (Cape Verde Islands) differed from previous eruptions by the occurrence of evolved lavas, the SW-orientation
of vents, and pre-eruptive seismicity between Fogo and the adjacent (~20 km) island of Brava. We have conducted a thermobarometric
and chemical study of this eruption in order to reconstruct its magma plumbing system and to test for possible connections
to Brava. The bimodal eruption produced basanites (5.2–6.7 wt% MgO) and phonotephrites (2.4–2.8 wt% MgO) that are related
by fractional crystallization. Clinopyroxene-melt-barometry of phenocrysts yields pressure ranges of 460–680 MPa for the basanites
and 460–520 MPa for the phonotephrites. Microthermometry of CO2-dominated fluid inclusions in olivine and clinopyroxene phenocrysts yields systematically lower pressure ranges of 200–310 MPa
for basanites and 270–470 MPa for phonotephrites. The combined data indicate pre-eruptive storage of the 1995 magmas within
the lithospheric mantle between 16 and 24 km depth. During eruption, the ascending magmas stalled temporarily at 8–11 km depth,
within the lower crust, before they ascended to the surface in a few hours as indicated by zonations of olivine phenocrysts.
Our data provide no evidence for magma storage at shallow levels (<200 MPa) or lateral magma movements beneath the Fogo-Brava
platform. Sr–Nd–Pb isotope ratios of samples from Brava differ significantly from those of the 1995 and older Fogo lavas,
which rules out contamination of the 1995 magmas by Brava material and indicates different mantle sources and magma plumbing
systems for both islands. 相似文献
