Basalt magmatism along the passive continental margin of SE Brazil (Campos basin)

The SE-Brazil passive continental margin is characterized by tholeiitic magmatism that is particularly widespread in the marginal Campos basin, facing the inland flood basalts of the adjacent Paranà basin. Campos magmatism is represented by Early Cretaceous (EC; 134–122 Ma) flood basalts and minor Upper Cretaceous-Early Tertiary basalt flows and intrusives, which were emplaced in a basin with attenuated crustal thickness (20 km). Petrography, mineral chemistry, wholerock geochemistry and Sr–Nd isotope composition emphasize that the EC-Campos basalts have suffered extensive seawater interaction which caused enrichment in MgO, FeO total, K₂O, Rb and Ba, and depletion in SiO₂ and CaO, while Zr, Nb, Y and REE remained virtually constant in samples with loss-on-ignition values less than 4 wt%. In general, Campos basalts have bulkrock chemistry similar to those of the inland Parana tholeiites (140–130 Ma) with relatively low concentrations of incompatible elements and TiO₂ (<2 wt%). Batch-melting calculations suggest that Campos basalt genesis requires a garnet-peridotite source and variable degree of melting (9–25%) in order to explain the rare-earth-element (REE) patterns with chondrite normalised La/Yb_(N) ratio ranging from 0.9–1.0 to 4.4–7.1. The Sr–Nd isotopic data for the slightly altered Campos basalts, of both Early Cretaceous and Upper Cretaceous-Early Tertiary age, plot close to bulk earth, or in the enriched quadrant of the mantle array. Inter-element (La, Zr, Nb, Ba) ratios preclude for the Campos (and Paranà) basalt genesis any significant participation of N-type (Zr/Nb>16) MORB (mid-ocean-ridge basalt) mantle in simple binary mixing models. On the whole, the Early Cretaceous Campos basalts appear as an easterly, younger extension of the northern Paranà volcanism and probably erupted during early stages of the major riftingprocesses which caused continental thinning. It is notable that in the Campos marginal basin both the basalt magmatism contemporaneous with the continental break-up, as well as that which occurred after the S. America-Africa separation, appears substantially related to subcontinental lithosphere and a Dupal-like OIB (ocean-island basalt) (e.g. Tristan da Cunha) source components.     

重庆市沥鼻峡背斜地热地质特征

采用经验总结法和文献研究法，通过对沥鼻峡热储构造上的温泉和地热井勘查资料进行系统研究，发现沥鼻峡背斜具有典型的层状热储结构特征，是目前华蓥山复式背斜钻获地热水水温最低的热储构造，地热水以硫酸钙型水质为主，目前已知地热井和温泉具有水温普遍低于37℃和水量衰减较明显的特征.初步认为钻获地热水温低可能与构造有一定的关系.

基于北斗星间链路闭环残差检测的星间钟差平差改正

利用“闭环检测”思想检测和修正系统测量累积误差,是工程科学中的常用和有效手段。本文指出了北斗三号系统全球星间链路中所存在的有利闭环条件,并提出一种利用其进行闭合残差检测与分析的方法。在此基础上,构建了闭合残差整网平差模型,实现了对北斗三号卫星星间相对钟差的误差修正。基于在轨实测数据的计算表明,北斗三号系统全球星间链路中确实存在着明显的常数性或周期性非零闭合残差。通过对星间链路闭环残差的平差修正,基本消除了卫星星间钟差不闭合的现象,减少星间钟差随机噪声30%~50%,有效提高了星间相对钟差测定的精度,有利于提升北斗系统服务能力。     

On the propagation of Love waves in a non-homogeneous isotropic layer of finite depth lying on an infinite non-isotropic layer

Wave propagation through ionospheric plasma in presence of time-varying random irregularities

Summary The dielectric tensor of a time-varying anisotropic electron-plasma has been studied with the consideration of the effect of collision. The tripple splitting of the electromagnetic waves is obtained from the dispersion relation which gives the two usual magnetoionic modes in the limiting case. The randomness of electron number density has been evaluated by the help of field variables and also by the nature of fluctuation of dielectric tensor.     

Finite strain theory of love waves

Summary The propagation of Love waves is discussed on the basis of finite strain theory. The primary Love wave is found to be associated with a secondary Rayleigh wave and a tertiary Love wave. Numerical calculations are presented for two values of the wave-velocity; the results show that the theory of Love waves based on infinitesimal strain, is not applicable to short period waves.
