On the significance of CO2 inclusions in plagioclase microphenocrysts in tholeiite from Moeraki,New Zealand

Liquid plus vapour inclusions of CO₂ are widespread in plagioclase microphenocrysts in small tholeiitic intrusions and tephra of the Moeraki and adjacent areas of northeast Otago, New Zealand. They imply the presence of immiscible CO₂ droplets in the magma at depths of about 7–14 km. Their presence within 5 μm of the edges of microphenocrysts as little as 35 μm thick and 118 μm long indicates minimal feldspar crystal growth during the final ascent and quenching of the magma. Delicate branching clusters of lath-like microphenocrysts escaped disruption during this ascent. Such CO₂ inclusions are a potential source of ‘excess argon’ perturbing K-Ar age determinations.

Frictional heat generation and seismic radiation in a foam rubber model of earthquakes

Results from a study of stick-slip particle motion at the interface between two stressed foam rubber blocks indicate that normal vibrations and interface separation are an important part of the stick-slip process in foam rubber. The dimension of the dynamic slip pulse is small compared to the dimension of the model (approximately 10 cm vs. 200 cm) consistent with the abrupt-locking slip pulse model ofBrune (1970, 1976), andHeaton (1990). A comparison of frictional heat generation between stable-sliding and stick-slip foam rubber models indicates a linear relation between the temperature increase on the fault surface (for a given distance of slip) and the driving shear force for the stable-sliding model, while for the stick-slip model there is essentially no variation in frictional heat generation with an increase in shear stress. We performed experiments to investigate the ratio of normal motion to shear motion at different levels of normal stress in the stick-slip foam rubber model. Preliminary result indicate that the normal component of the particle motion increases more rapidly with increasing normal stress than the shear component. The phenomenon of interface separation and normal vibrations may thus explain some of the most frustrating problems in earthquake mechanics, e.g., the heat flow paradox, the long-term weakness of major active faults, and anomalousP-wave radiation.     

冻土切削力学特性的试验和理论分析

利用笔者所研制的冻土切削试验台，在室内对不同冻土在不同温度、含水量、切削速度、切削深度和切刀前角下进行了一系列切削试验。结果表明，切削时，冻土主要呈脆性断裂破坏，其切削过程被认为是刀刃切入和撕裂冻土的结果，切削阻力随冻土温度降低而非线性增加，随切削速度提高而略有增加，随切削深度增加而近似线性增加，最佳切刀前角随切削深度增大有增大趋势。但平均切削阻力与最大切削阻力之比值对不同试验条件基本在０．４－０．６５间变化。同时，根据切削过程机理，从理论上建立了最大切削力模型，此模型考虑了切入和撕裂冻土阻力。     

冻土的蠕变及蠕变强度

基于试验，本本讨论分析了冻土三轴蠕变规律及温度和围压对冻土蠕变强度的影响，给出了土蠕变及蠕变强度随时间降低的方程式，进而提出了冻土蠕变强度的物型屈服准则。通过改变参数可将冻土的瞬时强度准则与冻土的瞬时强度准则与冻土的蠕变强度准则统一为同一个方程描述。     

四川省宁南县城后山泥石流激发雨强

根据宁南县城后山垂直剖面观测资料，对本区降雨的垂直变化及泥石流激发雨强作了探讨。当地暴雨泥石流发生所需的１０分钟雨强ｉ＿（１０ｍｉｎ）和前期降水量Ｐａ组合为：：ｉ＿（１０ｍｉｎ）≥１５ｍｍ∩Ｐａ≥５０ｍｍ，或ｉ＿（ｍｉｎ）≥１０ｍｍ∩Ｐａ≥６５ｍｍ，或ｉ＿（１０ｍｉｎ）≥５ｍｍ∩Ｐａ≥９０ｍｍ。超过上述各组合值就有可能暴发泥石流。     

贡嘎山区全新世冰川变化与泥石流发育的关系

贡嘎山区在全新世初期（１００００－７５００ａＢＰ），气候渐暖，冰川后退，泥石流发生频次剧增；中期（７５００－４０００ａＢＰ），出现高温气候，冰川强烈后退，沉积物则以冰水河流相为主；晚期（＜４０００ａＢＰ），气候转冷，出现新冰期。嗣后，气候转暖，但有三次明显的冰进过程；４００ａＢＰ前，气候再度转冷，出现小冰期。大量的泥石流点是出现在气候转暖、冰川退缩的初始阶段。
