黄龙嗜冷细菌两种胞外单糖对碳酸钙矿化影响

为了探究黄龙水体中嗜冷细菌的胞外代谢产物对钙华沉积速率及沉积产物的影响,本文从黄龙钙华水体中分离到优势土著嗜冷细菌,并以其标志性胞外代谢产物D-葡萄糖和D-核糖作为研究对象,研究了两种单糖组分在低温环境下对钙华沉积的影响,并通过X射线衍射(XRD)、扫描电子显微镜(SEM)、红外吸收光谱(FT-IR)等分析手段对碳酸钙晶型、形貌以及结构组成进行了表征。实验表明:D-葡萄糖在低温条件下能促进方解石型碳酸钙的沉积,并加快沉积速率。低浓度下(20 mg/L和40 mg/L)的沉积产物均为方解石型碳酸钙并对其形貌有一定的影响;高浓度下(80 mg/L和160 mg/L)能诱导少量的文石型碳酸钙的合成。D-核糖在低温条件下能促进碳酸钙的沉积,加快沉积速率。与D-葡萄糖不同,D-核糖仅能合成方解石型碳酸钙,但对方解石晶面的生长表现为抑制作用,且随浓度增大抑制作用益明显。此结果可为黄龙钙华生物成因的探究提供一定的理论研究基础。     

The use of neutrons and monochromatic X-rays for non-destructive testing in geological materials

In the paper we present our results for element sensitive high-energy X-ray tomography and high-speed thermal neutron tomography applied to geological samples. The tuneable monochromatic X-ray beam was used for element sensitive tomography of geological samples containing heavy elements using the K-edge dichromatic scanning technique. This type of NDT (non-destructive testing) allowed us to reveal the quantity and location of uranium, lead and mercury in Oklo samples (natural nuclear reactor) and Cinnabar stones. Fast 3-D thermal neutron imaging of dynamical processes was successfully tested at the high flux neutron tomography station of the ILL. The qualitative investigation of water repellents and consolidants applied on sandstones of Bray and limestones of Maastricht were the first samples to be studied with the new imaging technique.     

Monitoring of weathering and conservation of building materials through non-destructive X-ray computed microtomography

X-ray computed microtomography (µCT) is a promising non-destructive imaging technique based on measurements of the attenuation of X-rays. It provides information on the internal structure of small samples with a maximum resolution of 10 µm. For this study, two porous local natural building stones, the sandstone of Bray and the limestone of Maastricht, were selected. Possible applications of the µCT-technique for qualitative monitoring of changes comprise (1) to non-destructively determine porosity based on 3-D images, (2) to visualise weathering phenomena at the micron-scale, (3) to understand the rationale of weathering processes, (4) to visualise the presence of water repellents and consolidation products, (5) to monitor their protective effects during decay in order to understand the operating mechanisms and (6) to provide advise on the suitability of products for the treatment of a particular rock type. The µCT-technique proves to be a powerful monitoring tool for the future as the combination of 3-D visualisation and 3-D data provide new insights that could optimise conservation and restoration techniques of building materials.

Thermal decay of carbonate dimension stones: fabric,physical and mechanical changes

This paper deals with the effects of thermal stresses on selected carbonate rocks used as dimension stones. They are Mesozoic calcareous and dolomitic rocks cropping out in Apulia (southern Italy) that, for their physico-mechanical and aesthetic properties, have always been finding a large application both as ornamental stones and as simple construction materials; their use is attested not only in Italy, in works of archaeological, historical and artistic interest too. The cause–effect relationships of thermal degradation were studied by means of an artificial accelerated ageing test, in order to provide a perspective about the decay of carbonate stones due to diurnal and seasonal temperature fluctuations, as well as thermal shocks during events of fire development. The stone samples were subjected to thermal cycles in a muffle furnace, ranging from 100 to 700 °C; after each cycle, several non-destructive and semi-destructive tests were carried out: mass and volume measurements, mercury intrusion porosimetry, sclerometer tests, ultrasonic tests, thin-section observations and determination of chromatic alterations through image analysis and Munsell charts method. In this way, the qualitative and quantitative modifications induced in fabric, physical and mechanical properties were discussed. The results highlight the fundamental role of depositional and diagenetic fabric that, together with mineralogical composition, represents the most significant discriminating factor in the response of the stone to thermal stresses.

钙华物理力学性质试验研究

钙华是一种大孔隙次生碳酸钙,是岩溶水在适宜的环境下碳酸钙过饱和沉积而形成,不同成因的钙华形成了绚丽多彩的自然景观。钙华沉积速率快,对气候和环境极具敏感性,近年来被广泛用于短时间尺度的古气候环境重建研究。由于钙华主要分布于水流活动频繁的偏远地区,较少用于工程建设,故国内外对其工程性质少有研究。本文以南美洲玻利维亚东南地区某冶金项目为依托,实地研究了湖沼相钙华的工程性质,通过渗水试验测试了钙华层的渗透系数,通过浸水载荷试验,研究了钙华的承载力特性和溶陷性。结果表明:钙华的渗透系数为1.7×10-3cm·s-1;变形模量为45.39 MPa,在浸水之后变形模量有所降低,但仍然可达到36.85 MPa;浸水状态下地基承载力特征值高于280 kPa,浸水3 h后的浸润深度为0.65 m;钙华的平均溶陷系数为0.001 75,为非溶陷性岩石。通过试验可以得出如下结论:(1)钙华遇水后的稳定性较差,基坑和基础施工宜安排在旱季。(2)钙华在天然状态下的承载力较高,遇水后承载力会有所降低,应尽可能保持基底干燥。③钙华的渗透系数较小,短时间的水流对钙华层的浸润深度较小,雨季来临时,只要做好地基的覆盖,就可以使地基保持较高的承载力。     

Impact of salt and frost weathering on the physical and durability properties of travertines and carbonate tufas used as building material

This study aims to understand the effect of salt and frost crystallisation on the petrophysical and durability properties of representative types of travertine and carbonate tufas. Results demonstrate that the studied travertines and tufas exhibit a very high durability against salt and ice crystallisation cycles, compared to carbonates rocks with similar porosity values. The variation of the loss of mass, effective porosity, capillary absorption coefficient, ultrasonic wave velocity and attenuation, and compressive strength was scarce during weathering tests. The evolution of petrophysical properties was slightly more intense after 30 cycles of salt crystallisation than 100 cycles of freeze–thaw. Petrophysical and durability properties of the travertines and carbonate tufas depend on porosity fraction and on the manner in which the vuggy porosity is connected. In the travertine facies, vuggy macropores show little connection and can be considered as separate-vug porosity. Their addition to interparticle porosity increases effective porosity and reduces their mechanical strength but does not significantly increase capillary transport and the effectiveness of salt and ice action over the stone. On the contrary, in the carbonate tufas, vugs act as touching-vug pores, as capillary imbibition coefficients reveal. However, scanning electron microscopy displays that they underwent microcracking processes related mainly to both thermal stresses and/or ice and salt pressures. These microcracks present little connection, and they do not enhance noticeably the water flow or decrease the mechanical properties. These results are finally discussed in terms of a nonlinear decay pattern, which with long periods of apparent stability might be followed by rapid and catastrophic decay.     

Fossil findings from the Sıcak Çermik fissure ridge-type travertines and possible hominid tracks,Sivas, Central Turkey

S?cak Çermik (Sivas) is an important geothermal and recent travertine formation area in Central Anatolia. The majority of travertines found in the region comprise fissure-ridge type travertines according to morphological classification. At the location called Tepe Çermik within the travertine area, fill containing fossil bone fragments of Equus sp., Bovidae and other abundant animals formed within the fracture axis of a N–S striking fissure-ridge travertine developed under control of tectonic forces. The finds of these fossils in fissure-ridge travertines linked to tectonic forces indicates formation of a unique fossil environment created under the control of these forces. The Accelerator Mass Spectrometry Radiocarbon Dating analyses of fossils from the study area determined the fills were older than 43,000 years. The U/Th age of a sample from the most recently-formed banded travertine in the axis of the fracture was identified as 278,540 ± 18,436 years. As a result, the ages of fossils found within this fill are thought to be between 43,000 and 278,540 ± 18,436 years old. The high amount of perissodactyla and artiodactyla fossils found within fill in the axis of the fissure-ridge travertine probably indicates the presence of hominids who chose the region for hunting or settlement. The Equus sp. and Bovidae fossil samples found in the axis of the fracture indicate that in the dry and cold glacial period the paleogeography in a large portion of Anatolia comprised desert-like steppe.     

X-ray tomography in petrophysical studies of core samples from oil and gas fields

The porosity and permeability of core rocks were studied by X-ray tomography. This method has a high potential for studying petrophysical properties of rocks, because it permits not only a general quantitative estimation of the void volume but also visualization of the rock texture, including pores, cavities, cracks, and zones of different densities in the matrix. X-ray tomography permits detailed studies of rock inhomogeneity, which are necessary for the elaboration of reliable porosity-permeability models for hydrocarbon pools. The investigations at Perm State National Research Polytechnic University have shown that X-ray tomography of core samples has a wide spectrum of applications in petroleum geology. Nikon Metrology XT H 225 X-ray computed tomography makes it possible to examine samples with a standard diameter (30 mm) and whole core samples (100 mm). The structure of voids in carbonate and terrigenous rocks was studied on samples with standard and full diameters; the results of hydrochloric acid treatment of carbonate reservoir rocks were visualized; and the mechanical properties of rock salts were studied. Three-dimensional models for the structure of voids and mineral matrix of the core samples have been constructed with the use of the Avizo Fire software.

Assessment of the seasonal variation of simulated Wyrtki jet over the tropical Indian Ocean in CMIP5 models

Performances of the 24 Coupled Model Intercomparison Project Phase 5 (CMIP5) models in simulating the Wyrtki Jet over the tropical Indian Ocean are evaluated, and the results show large diversity in the simulated current intensity at seasonal timescale. These coupled models are able to capture the dominant spatial distribution of observed Wyrtki Jet, the central equatorial region. The simulated seasonal variations of Wyrtki Jet are also reproduced quantitatively, though the simulated amplitudes from CMIP5 models are quite spread among the CMIP5 models. Compared with the observation, some coupled models are not able to present the evolution of Wyrtki Jet in fall season and the decay phase has been postponed 1 month later. Further diagnostic illustrates that the simulated surface zonal wind has remarkable impact on the evolution of Wyrtki Jet in fall season over the tropical Indian Ocean. This study also points out that there is a common problem in these models that most of them present 1-month delayed Wyrtki Jets peak time than the normal climatological condition along the center equatorial Indian Ocean.

Traces of ancient geysers preserved in the travertine of Siwaqa,Jordan: conditions of their formation

A Pleistocene travertine quarrying on a hill in Siwaqa area, central Jordan, excavated solid, well-stratified travertine beds of about 12 m in thickness. The fabric and composition of the travertine indicate original deposition from hot spring water. At present, the area and its surrounding are devoid of any perennial water, except for periodic flood flows that collect at Siwaqa dam 4–5 km to the west of the quarry area, joining the catchment of the River Mujib. The travertine overlies combusted oil shale. The exposed hot spring travertine consists predominantly of well-bedded limestone, interrupted by horizons of chaotic angular debris, indicating ejection from below such as those produced by geysers. The article discusses the origins of the mottled and angular rock fragments, their transportation due to explosive geyser, the conditions and possible causes that produced the pressures leading to steam outbreaks and are responsible for the observed redistribution of travertine layers.

U/Th dating of fissure ridge travertines from the Kirsehir region (Central Anatolia Turkey): structural relations and implications for the Neotectonic development of the Anatolian block

Travertines exposed in several locations in Central Anatolia are the important lithological product for the interpretation of local neotectonics. The fissure-type travertines provide significant information about stress orientation during deposition. Two travertine masses cropping out in the Kirsehir region have been studied and dated by the U-series method to obtain new chronological constraints, determine dilation rates and contribute to studies on the recent tectonic evolution of the area. The Kusdili and Kayabasi travertine masses are located on the hanging wall of the Kirsehir Fault, similar to numerous fissure ridge banded travertine deposits which are inactive today in the region. While individual fissures of the Kusdili travertine mass (Late Pleistocene-Holocene) have been dilated at rates of between 0.303 and 0.386 mm yr–1 during deposition, the Kayabasi travertine mass (Late Pleistocene) produced measured dilation rates of between 0.136 and 0.187 mm yr–1. The central fissures, filled by banded travertine, roughly follow the ridge crests. While the ridge crest has a NNE-SSW trend in the Kayabasi travertine mass, the ridge crest of the Kusdili travertine mass shows a NE-SW trend. This difference may be related to the clockwise rotation of the stress tensors from Late Pleistocene to Late Pleistocene-Holocene in the region.
