Early Neoarchaean A-type granitic magmatism by crustal reworking in Singhbhum craton: Evidence from Pala Lahara area,Orissa

Several volumetrically minor \(\sim \)2.8 Ga anorogenic granites and rhyolites occur along the marginal part of the Singhbhum craton whose origin and role in crustal evolution are poorly constrained. This contribution presents petrographic, geochemical, zircon U–Pb and trace element, and mineral chemical data on such granites exposed in the Pala Lahara area to understand their petrogenesis and tectonic setting. The Pala Lahara granites are calc-alkaline, high-silica rocks and define a zircon U–Pb age of 2.79 Ga. These granites are ferroan, weakly metaluminous, depleted in Al, Ca and Mg and rich in LILE and HFSE. They are classified as A2-type granites with high Y/Nb ratios. Geochemical characteristics (high \(\hbox {SiO}_{2}\) and \(\hbox {K}_{2}\hbox {O}\), very low MgO, Mg#, Cr, Ni and V, negative Eu anomaly, flat HREE and low Sr/Y) and comparison with melts reported by published experimental studies suggest an origin through high-temperature, shallow crustal melting of tonalitic/granodioritic source similar to the \(\sim \)3.3 Ga Singhbhum Granite. Intrusion of the Pala Lahara granites was coeval with prominent mafic magmatism in the Singhbhum craton (e.g., the Dhanjori mafic volcanic rocks and NNE–SSW trending mafic dyke swarm). It is suggested that the \(\sim \)2.8 Ga A-type granites in the Singhbhum craton mark a significant crustal reworking event attendant to mantle-derived mafic magmatism in an extensional tectonic setting.     

Experimental study on mechanical characteristics of sandstone containing arc fissures

Arc fissure is one of the basic forms of defective rock, where the expansion and evolution mechanism plays an important role in the stability of engineering rock mass under the external load action. Uniaxial compression experiments of sandstone samples that contained various angles of arc fissures (sandstone sample was 80 mm?×?160 mm?×?30 mm) were performed in order to investigate the effect that arc angle α had on the mechanical properties, the failure mode, and the fracture evolution process of sandstone. The results showed that when arc angle α was increased, the peak strength and the strain of the sandstone samples initially decreased before increasing and the minimum peak strength and strain were reached when α?=?15°. The deterioration of the bearing capacity and the number of cracks that appeared during the sandstone loading process decreased as the arc angle of the fissure increased. The arc fissure destruction was primarily initiated from the fragile area of the arch tip. The tensile cracks appeared on the fissure tip and non-tip as the axial force increased. The various arc angle α played an important role in the initiation stress and the rupture evolution of the specimen.

通过对111篇国际SCI和SSCI期刊内陆港（Inland Port）文献的分析,结果发现：1）从20世纪90年代以来,国际上对内陆港的相关研究逐渐增多,尤其是自2016年以来,文献数量增长迅速。研究者的地区分布以亚洲、欧洲和北美洲最多,研究主题多与交通运输、物流等领域结合,表明内陆港已经成为交通运输体系和供应链运输网络的重要组成部分,但其概念至今尚未统一。其概念探讨主要集中在不同地理背景下对内陆港功能和作用、与海港的便捷交通链接,以及随经济发展延伸出来的附加功能方面。2）内陆港的空间布局体系大致可以分为供应链导向型布局和产业集群型布局,腹地经济基础、交通基础设施与地方政策因素等都影响内陆港的选址和布局。3）内陆港对区域的影响广泛而深远,在城市空间规划和土地利用、区域经济发展和就业以及降低能耗和减排、实现区域可持续发展等方面产生持续的空间效应、经济效应和环境效应。4）内陆港的运营和管制需要特别关注港口规划与各管理主体之间及其与管理制度的关系,以实现内陆港高效、持续、健康的发展。文章最后着眼于全球内陆港研究新趋势和新发展格局背景下中国对内陆港发展实践需求,指出未来内陆港研究需要重点关注概念再界定与评价实证、空间布局与规划、区域影响与港城关系研究、开发投资与潜在效益之间的风险关系研究等方面。     

Coevolution of brachiopod paleobiogeography and tectonopaleogeography during the late Paleozoic in Central Asia

Patterns of brachiopod paleobiogeographic regionalization in Central Asia reveal a coevolution between brachiopod paleobiogeography and tectonopaleogeography during the Early Devonian,Early Carboniferous,Late Carboniferous,Early Permian,and Middle Permian.The coevolutionary relationship reasonably accounts for the formation mechanisms of brachiopod paleobiogeography in this region,and also provides a basis for studies on the location and configuration of oceans and plates(blocks)during the late Paleozoic in Central Asia.

Joint AVO inversion in the time and frequency domain with Bayesian interference

Amplitude variations with offset or incident angle (AVO/AVA) inversion are typically combined with statistical methods, such as Bayesian inference or deterministic inversion. We propose a joint elastic inversion method in the time and frequency domain based on Bayesian inversion theory to improve the resolution of the estimated P- and S-wave velocities and density. We initially construct the objective function using Bayesian inference by combining seismic data in the time and frequency domain. We use Cauchy and Gaussian probability distribution density functions to obtain the prior information for the model parameters and the likelihood function, respectively. We estimate the elastic parameters by solving the initial objective function with added model constraints to improve the inversion robustness. The results of the synthetic data suggest that the frequency spectra of the estimated parameters are wider than those obtained with conventional elastic inversion in the time domain. In addition, the proposed inversion approach offers stronger antinoising compared to the inversion approach in the frequency domain. Furthermore, results from synthetic examples with added Gaussian noise demonstrate the robustness of the proposed approach. From the real data, we infer that more model parameter details can be reproduced with the proposed joint elastic inversion.     

Shape and position of Earth’s bow shock near-lunar orbit based on ARTEMIS data

Earth’s bow shock is the result of interaction between the supersonic solar wind and Earth’s magnetopause. However, data limitations mean the model of the shape and position of the bow shock are based largely on near-Earth satellite data. The model of the bow shock in the distant magnetotail and other factors that affect the bow shock, such as the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) B_y, remain unclear. Here, based on the bow shock crossings of ARTEMIS from January 2011 to January 2015, new coefficients of the tail-flaring angle α of the Chao model (one of the most accurate models currently available) were obtained by fitting data from the middle-distance magnetotail (near-lunar orbit, geocentric distance -20R_E>X>-50R_E). In addition, the effects of the IMF B_y on the flaring angle α were analyzed. Our results showed that: (1) the new fitting coefficients of the Chao model in the middle-distance magnetotail are more consistent with the observed results; (2) the tail-flaring angle α of the bow shock increases as the absolute value of the IMF B_y increases. Moreover, positive IMF B_y has a greater effect than negative IMF B_y on flaring angle. These results provide a reference for bow shock modeling that includes the IMF B_y.     

Altitude of the upper boundary of AAR based on observations of ion beams in inverted-V structures: A case study

Outflowing ion beams forming four successive inverted-V structures in the energy-time spectrograms of H+, He+, and O+ were observed at an altitude of 3.4 RE by Cluster satellites travelling above the auroral acceleration region (AAR) in the southern hemisphere on February 14, 2001. Energization by negative U-shaped potential structures in the AAR is believed to be responsible for the formation of these outflowing ion inverted-V structures. Thus, utilizing the different motion properties of the three ion species, the altitude of the upper boundary of the AAR is estimated to be ~11100 km. Moreover, based on multi-satellite observations, each of these U-shaped potential structures involved in this event crosses the latitudinal direction at ~0.4°–1° invariantlatitude (ILAT), moving poleward at an average speed of ~0.2° ILAT per minute, before disappearing at ~71.5° ILAT.
