Silurian granites of northern Kazakhstan: U-Pb age and tectonic position

The isotopic-geochronological studies of zircons from granites of the Borovoe, Makinsk, and Zhukei massifs located in the eastern part of the Precambrian Kokchetav median massif revealed that they were formed during the relatively brief period from 431 to 423 Ma ago, which allowed them to be united into the Early Silurian Borovoe Complex.

The Influences of Thermodynamic Characteristics on Aerodynamic Roughness Length over Land Surface

It has previously been shown that aerodynamic roughness length changes significantly along with nearsurface atmospheric thermodynamic state; however, at present, this phenomenon remains poorly understood, and very little research concerning this topic has been conducted. In this paper, by using the data of different underlying surfaces provided by the Experimental Co-observation and Integral Research in Semi-arid and Arid Regions over North China, aerodynamic roughness length (z₀) values in stable, neutral, and unstable atmospheric stratifications are compared with one another, and the relationship between z₀ and atmospheric thermodynamic stability (ζ) is analyzed. It is found that z₀ shows great differences among the stable, neutral, and unstable atmospheric thermodynamic states, with the difference in z₀ values between the fully thermodynamic stable condition and the neutral condition reaching 60% of the mean z₀. Furthermore, for the wind speed range in which the wind data are less sensitive to z₀, the surface z₀ changes more significantly with ζ, and is highly correlated with both the Monin-Obukhov stability (ζ₀) and the overall Richardson number (R_ib), with both of their correlation coefficients greater than 0.71 and 0.47 in the stable and unstable atmospheric stratification, respectively. The empirical relation fitted with the experimental observations is quite consistent with the Zilitinkevich theoretical relation in the stable atmosphere, but the two are quite distinct and even show opposite variation tendencies in the unstable atmosphere. In application, however, verification of the empirical fitted relations by using the experimental data finds that the fitted relation is slightly more applicable than the Zilitinkevich theoretical relation in stable atmospheric stratification, but it is much more suitable than the Zilitinkevich relation in unstable atmospheric stratification.

Kinetics of the reactions of hydroxyl radicals with aliphatic ethers studied under simulated atmospheric conditions

Rate coefficients have been measured for the reactions of hydroxyl radicals with a range of aliphatic ethers by a competitive technique. Mixtures of synthetic air containing a few ppm of nitrous acid, isobutene and an ether were photolyzed in a Teflon-bag smog chamber. From the rates of depletion of the ether and of the isobutene, and based on the value of the rate coefficient k(OH+i-C₄H₈)=5.26×10^-11 cm³ molecule^-1 s^-1, the following rate coefficients were obtained for the hydroxyl radical reactions at 750 Torr and at 294±2K in units of 10^-12 cm³ molecule^-1 s^-1: diethylether = 12.0±1.1, di-n-propylether = 15.3±1.6, di-n-butylether=17.1±0.9, ethyl n-butylether = 13.5±0.4, ethyl t-butyl-ether = 5.6±0.5, and di-isobutylether = 26.1±1.6. The quoted error limits correspond to 2 standard deviations but do not include any contribution from k(OH+i-C₄H₈) for which the error limits are estimated to be about ±10%. The results are discussed in relation to the available literature data and considered in terms of the structure-activity relation for hydroxyl radical reactions with organic molecules.     

Further studies of the temperature dependence of the rate coefficients for the reactions of OH with a series of ethers under simulated atmospheric conditions

The following temperature-dependent rate coefficients (k/cm³ molecule^–1 s^–1) of the reactions of hydroxyl radicals with aliphatic ethers have been determined over the temperature range 247–373 K by a competitive flow technique: diethyl ether,k _OH=5.2×10^–12 exp[(262±150)/T]; methyln-butyl ether,k _OH=5.4×10^–12 exp[(309±150)/T]; ethyln-butyl ether,k _OH=7.3×10^–12 exp[(335±150)/T]; di-n-butyl ether,k _OH=5.5×10^–12 exp[(502±150)/T] and di-n-pentyl ether,k _OH=8.5×10^–12 exp[(417±150)/T]. The data have been measured relative to the rate coefficientk(OH + 2,3-dimethylbutane)=6.2×10^–12 cm³ molecule^–1 s^–1 independent of temperature.Previous discrepancies in the room-temperature rate coefficients for the OH reactions with ethyln-butyl ether and di-n-butyl ether, obtained in the flow and static experiments of Bennett and Kerr (J. Atmos. Chem. 8, 87–94, 1989;10, 29–38, 1990) compared with those of Wallingtonet al. (Int. J. Chem. Kinet. 20, 541–547, 1988;21, 993–1001, 1989) and of Nelsonet al. (Int. J. Chem. Kinet. 22, 1111–1126, 1990) have been resolved. The results are considered in relation to the available literature data and evaluated rate expressions are deduced where possible. The data are also discussed in terms of structure-activity relationships.     

Hydrogeological and geochemical study of the springs in San Severino Lucano territory (Southern Italy)

A hydrogeological and geochemical study is presented for the San Severino Lucano region of southern Italy. In this region, groundwater circulation occurs in rocks lithologically different from one another (metaophiolites, carbonate rocks, etc.). Many springs drain this region. The Frido springs are the most important both for their great volume of flow and for their water quality. A water balance estimated for the recharge area of the Frido springs suggests that during the period 1938–1958 the evapotranspiration represents 54.8 percent, runoff 21.2 percent, and infiltration to groundwater 34 percent of rainfall. The springs studied have a meteoric origin and their waters are mostly acid carbonate-alkaline earth type. The reservoir rocks appear to be the only discriminating factors for the chemical composition of the waters analysed.

The geothermal regime of the northern Yukon and Mackenzie delta regions of northwest Canada — studies of two regional profiles

Temperature data from deep petroleum exploration wells and thermal conductivity estimates based on net rock analysis data have been used to make terrestrial heat flow estimates along two profiles across the sedimentary strata of the Mackenzie Delta, northern Yukon, and offshore Beaufort Sea regions.Both profiles exhibit low heat flow values that range from 34 mWm^–2 to 58 mWm^–2, and little change occurs over large distances in the continental part of the area. Low heat flow values (<40 mWm^–2) occur in the Beaufort-Mackenzie Basin and Rapid Depression, both of which are areas of thick successions of Cretacecus and Tertiary clastic sedimentary strata. High heat flow values of almost 80 mWm^–2 occur to the south in the Taiga Nahoni Foldbelt and values as high as 60 mWm^–2 are indicated along the Aklavik Arch Complex, northeast of Aklavik.The regional variations of effective thermal conductivity are insufficient to account for the heat flow variations along the profiles, and so these may indicate deep radiogenic or other heat sources.
