Preservation of high‐P rocks coupled to rock composition and the absence of metamorphic fluids

Eclogites, blueschists and greenschists are found in close proximity to one another along a 1‐km coastal section where the Cyclades Blueschist Unit (CBU) is exposed on SE Syros, Greece. Here, we show that the eclogites and blueschists experienced the same metamorphic history: prograde lawsonite blueschist facies metamorphism at 1.2–1.9 GPa and 410–530°C followed, at 43–38 Ma, by peak blueschist/eclogite facies metamorphism at 1.5–2.1 GPa and 520–580°C. We explain co‐existence of eclogites and blueschists by compositional variation probably reflecting original compositional layering. It is also shown that the greenschists record retrogression at 0.34 ± 0.21 GPa and T = 456 ± 68°C. This was spatially associated with a shear zone on a scales of 10–100‐m and veins on a scale of 1–10‐cm. Greenschist facies metamorphism ended at (or shortly after) 27 Ma. We thus infer a period of metamorphic quiescence after eclogite/blueschist facies metamorphism and before greenschist facies retrogression which lasted up to 11–16 million years. We suggest that this reflects an absence of metamorphic fluid flow at that time and conclude that greenschist facies retrogression only occurred when and where metamorphic fluids were present. From a tectonic perspective, our findings are consistent with studies showing that the CBU is (a) a high‐P nappe stack consisting of belts in which high‐P metamorphism and exhumation occurred at different times and (b) affected by greenschist facies metamorphism during the Oligocene, prior to the onset of regional tectonic extension.

Metamorphism and tectonic evolution of the Shangdan fault zone, Shaanxi, China

Abstract The Shangdan fault in the Qinling Orogenic Belt of China is an important boundary between the Caledonian North Qinling Fold Belt and the Hercynian South Qinling Fold Belt. In the Danfeng area, the fault zone strikes WNW–ESE and comprises four strongly deformed zones and three weakly deformed domains parallel to each other. The fault zone has a complex history of multiple deformation and each domain has a different tectonic style that was formed at different stages of the deformation.
The rocks exposed in the weakly deformed domains belong to the Qinling, Danfeng and Liuling Groups. In this paper, the mineral chemistry and mineral assemblages are used to infer the metamorphic conditions and the P–T paths of these units. The metamorphic units in and near the fault zone have different metamorphic conditions and histories that are correlated with the tectonic evolution of the fault zone. Caledonian–Hercynian uplift and southward thrusting of the Proterozoic Qinling Group, over the Danfeng and the Liuling Groups, produced the main metamorphic and tectonic features of the fault zone. Folding of both the Liuling Group and the thrust faults during the Hercynian–Indosinian was accompanied by northward thrusting.

An investigation of the relationship between bulk composition, inferred reaction progress and fluid-flow parameters for layered micaceous carbonates from Maine, USA

Reaction progress exhibited by multivariant assemblages in micaceous limestones can provide an excellent record of metamorphic fluid flow. However, it is necessary to understand the sensitivity of these assemblages to bulk‐composition parameters. Here, analysis of bulk composition on different scales and pseudosection construction are used to draw conclusions on relationships between bulk composition, fluid flow and reaction progress. Issues addressed include the effects of bulk composition on the mineralogical evolution of micaceous carbonates, the sensitivity of bulk composition to bulk‐composition sampling methods, the magnitude of cross‐layer fluid‐composition gradients, the potential for metasomatism to drive reaction progress, and the relative timing of reaction in adjacent layers. Pseudosections successfully represent observed mineral assemblages, constrain the position of reactions in T–X(CO₂) space, and allow assessment of the sensitivity of reaction position, inferred reaction progress and calculated fluid fluxes to uncertainties in bulk composition. The scale of bulk‐composition sampling affects bulk compositions, calculated modes, predicted mineral assemblages and calculated fluid compositions. Larger samples record an average of different lithological subdomains, while point‐count‐derived bulk compositions are subject to uncertainties related to the small number of sample points. The optimum bulk composition for pseudosection purposes probably lies between measured bulk compositions. Results suggest that reaction progress in some extensively reacted layers was driven by infiltration of H₂O‐rich fluid which flowed or diffused parallel to layering, perpendicular to layering in response to fluid‐composition gradients, and out of veins. Small variations in fluid composition across layering (ΔX(CO₂) < 0.02) were maintained by internal buffering by the mineral assemblages. Internal buffering must also have driven samples up a sequence of narrow low‐variance fields in T–X(CO₂) space, and so reaction in adjacent layers must have close to simultaneous. Metasomatic effects on reaction progress are likely to have been small, so long as the porosity was low.

四川盆地一次极端大风天气过程成因及预报着眼点分析

利用常规观测资料、FY-2E卫星云图、多普勒雷达产品、闪电定位资料、自动气象站资料等,分析了2015年4月4日傍晚到夜间发生在四川盆地的极端大风天气过程。分析指出:本次雷暴大风过程是由冷锋对暖湿气团的强迫抬升及干冷空气进入暖湿区域触发形成.中空干层、大的温度直减率、高低空急流耦合区、低层温度脊附近是利于极端雷暴大风出现的潜势区域。该区域为雷暴形成提供了条件不稳定、水汽、动力抬升等有利环境条件。冷空气首先从盆地西北部中低层入侵,在低层切变线上触发生成了一系列雷暴单体,在最有利于对流发展的潜势区域迅速发展。潜势区域中线状回波北段的中尺度涡旋环流、前侧入流和后侧入流的相互作用形成单体弓形回波,该弓形回波具有比普通雷暴更高的反射率因子、垂直液态含水量.根据雷达回波演变特征推断,本次极端大风是由单体弓形回波带来的湿下击暴流所导致。弓形回波中高反射率因子的高度连续下降意味着下沉气流伴随降水粒子下降,干空气被夹卷进入下沉气流使得雨滴被迅速蒸发,大大加强了下沉气流强度,因而显著增加了大风强度。分析还指出:通过分析对流发展背景条件,确定最有利对流发展的潜势区域,关注该区域中回波的生成、形态特点、演变特征,可提前预警大风天气。     

罗马尼亚Mircea Voda剖面黄土粒度特征及其成因指示

Mircea Voda剖面是欧洲典型的黄土剖面之一,本文对Mircea Voda黄土剖面序列S0-S3进行了系统的粒度分析,并与中国黄土高原典型的黄土剖面洛川剖面、西峰剖面等进行了对比研究。结果显示,黄土粒度组成以粒径为4μm-63μm粉砂为主,其平均含量为78. 22%,呈现出风成成因的基本特征,且不同深度样品的粒度组成具有较高的均一性,显示该区黄土具有相同的物质来源。粒度频率曲线呈现为以突出的第一众数20μm～35μm,分选较好的单峰正偏态分布特征,说明粉尘在沉积之前经过了充分的混合。粒级主要组分集中在粗粒端,但在细粒端1μm附近存在第2个分量,这种特征与中国黄土高原黄土的粒度特征十分相似。计算得沉积物环境判别参数Y值均小于-2. 741 1,通过与水成沉积物判别值Y的比较,进一步证实了Mircea Voda剖面黄土为风成成因特征。
