地幔副矿物和硫化物的热（PVT）状态方程研究

矿物PVT状态方程是研究矿物在一定温压条件下的晶胞体积与温度、压力之间的关系，依据这个基本关系，可以了解矿物在高温高压下的密度、弹性、热膨胀等性质。矿物PVT状态方程的研究可以了解矿物在地球深部存在的结构状态，为进一步的理论计算提供基础的数据，其结果也可以与天然和人工地震的地震波反演的结果对比，对地球深部的地质作用过程、物质结构状态和组成进行限制。然而，目前矿物PVT状态方程的研究主要集中在氧化物矿物和上地幔主要矿物（橄榄石和辉石）及其高压相（瓦兹利石、林伍德石、方镁铁矿、Majorite、Mg-Perovskite、Ca-Perovskite）的研究上，对石榴石、尖晶石等地幔常见副矿物和硫化物矿物的PVT状态方程的研究很少。 作者在参与搭建并完善金刚石压腔外加温系统的基础上，利用北京同步辐射X射线衍射实验技术结合金刚石压腔外加温技术对天然铁铝榴石、锰铝榴石、铬尖晶石进行了PVT状态方程的研究，同时对闪锌矿、辰砂、方铅矿、辉钼矿、辉锑矿等硫化物矿物进行了相变及状态方程的研究。结合前人研究成果，讨论了类质同象置换对镁铝－铁铝系列石榴石、锰铝－铁铝系列石榴石、尖晶石和硫化物矿物相变及状态方程的影响。获得了以下研究结果： 1）镁铝－铁铝系列石榴石和锰铝－铁铝系列石榴石的体弹模量都随着铁铝榴石组分的增加而增大。其主要原因是在二价阳离子位置上Fe2+取代了Mg2+、Mn2+。在镁铝－铁铝榴石系列中Mg2+的共价键半径（1.36Å）要大于Fe2+的共价键半径（1.17Å），而Mg2+－O键长（2.270Å）与铁铝榴石中的Fe2+－O（2.299Å）键长基本相当。在锰铝－铁铝榴石系列中， 尽管Mn2+的共价键半径（1.17Å）与铁铝榴石中的Fe2+共价键半径（1.17Å）相等，但是Mn2+－O键长（2.326Å）大于Fe2+－O键长（2.299Å）。较小的键长和共价键半径将会增强离子间的结合力，从而具有较强的抗压缩能力，因此随铁铝榴石组分的增加，镁铝－铁铝榴石系列和锰铝－铁铝榴石系列具有较大的体弹模量。 2）首次获得了铬尖晶石（(Mg0.6766Fe0.2808Na0.0073Ti0.0014)0.9661(Cr1.4874Al0.5367)2.0241O4）的体弹模量的温度导数。结合前人关于其他组分尖晶石的实验结果发现，尖晶石中在四面体位置上发生Fe2+－Mg2+置换对体弹模量的影响要大于在八面体位置上发生Cr3+－Al3+置换对体弹模量的影响。而造成铬尖晶石的体弹模量值比其他组分尖晶石的体弹模量值大的主要原因也是四面体位置上的Fe2+－Mg2+的类质置换。 3）依据获得的尖晶石和石榴石的状态方程计算了不同地幔岩模型（橄榄岩和榴辉岩模型）的密度值在上地幔温压条件下的变化情况。结果表明，在尖晶石二辉橄榄岩模型中尖晶石含量的改变（2％－10％）会引起较大的密度变化（2.2％）；在石榴石二辉橄榄岩（石榴石含量14％－20％）和榴辉岩（石榴石含量37％－45％）模型中石榴石含量的变化几乎未引起其密度值的变化，但石榴石是这两种地幔岩模型中的重要组成矿物。 4）首次获得了辰砂的Cinnabar相、方铅矿的B33相、辉钼矿、辉锑矿体弹模量的温度导数和热膨胀系数。讨论了闪锌矿、辰砂、方铅矿的相变情况。 5）总结了锌的、汞的、铅的硫族化合物发生结构相变的规律。认为造成锌的、汞的、铅的硫族化合物的相变压力随阴离子原子序数的增加（S→Se→Te）而逐渐减小的原因是：元素周期表中相对较大原子序数的原子具有更多的核内电子，引起价电子及导带电子的有效位能相对变弱，引起电离能降低，因此在相对较低的压力下就容易发生结构相变。 6）分析了ZnS中Fe2+替代Zn2+、Sb2S3－Bi2S3、MoS2－WS2以及同族相同结构不同组分的简单硫化物矿物的阴、阳离子对体弹模量值的影响。认为简单硫化物矿物的体弹模量值取决于阴、阳离子的离子半径、电负性以及键长。

Physical properties and accumulation rates in Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica

The European Programme for Ice Coring in Antarctica includes a comprehensive pre-site survey on the inland ice plateau of Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica. The German glaciological programme during the 1997/98 field season was carried out along a 1200 km traverse on Amundsenisen and involved sampling the snow cover in pits and by shallow firn cores. This paper focuses on the accumulation studies. The cores were dated by dielectric-profiling and continuous-flow analysis. Distinct volcanogenic peaks and seasonal signals in the profiles served to establish a depth time-scale. The eruptions of Krakatoa, Tambora, an unknown volcano, Kuwae and El Chichon are well-documented in the ice. Variations of the accumulation rates over different times were inferred from the depth time-scales. A composite record of accumulation rates for the last 200 years was produced by stacking 12 annually resolved records. According to this, accumulation rates decreased in the 19th century and increased in the 20th century. The recent values are by no means extraordinary, as they do not exceed the values at the beginning of the 19th century. Variations in accumulation rates are most probably linked to temperature variations indicated in d18O records from Amundsenisen.

Seasonally resolved chemical records of six ice cores from the Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica

The ammonium, calcium, and sodium concentrations from three intermediate depth ice cores drilled in the area of Dronning Maud Land, East Antarctica, have been investigated. Since all measurements were performed by a high-resolution Continuous Flow Analysis system, for the first time seasonal signals of chemical trace species could be obtained from the interior of central Antarctica over a period of approximately 2 millennia. Although the elevation as well as the accumulation rate differ between the drilling sites, similar values were obtained by comparing mean concentrations spanning the last 900 years. However, a distinct lack of intersite correlation was found on decadal timescales. Despite a noticeable accumulation change, apparent in one core, no significant concentration change of all three species has occurred. All the measured ions show clear seasonal signals over the whole records. While the sea-salt-related component sodium peaks simultaneously with calcium, the maximum ammonium concentration occurs in the snow with a time lag of 2 months after the sea-salt peak. More than 60% of the calcium concentration can be attributed to an ocean source. Elevated sodium concentrations were found within this millennium compared to mean values of the whole records, but the spatially varying shape of the increase suggests that a possible climatic signal is biased by local deposition effects.

Stable-isotope records from Dronning Maud Land, Antarctica

The European Project for Ice Coring in Antarctica (EPICA) includes a comprehensive pre-site survey on the inland ice plateau of Dronning Maud Land. This paper focuses on the investigation of the 18O content of shallow firn and ice cores. These cores were dated by profiles derived from dielectric-profiling and continuous flow analysis measurements. The individual records were stacked in order to obtain composite chronologies of 18O contents and accumulation rates with enhanced signal-to-noise variance ratios.These chronologies document variations in the last 200 and 1000 years.The 18O contents and accumulation rates decreased in the 19th century and increased during the 20th century.Using the empirical relationships between stable isotopes, accumulation rates and the 10m firn temperature, the variation of both parameters can be explained by the same temperature history.But other causes for these variations, such as the build-up of the snow cover, cannot be excluded. A marked feature of the 1000 year chronology occurs during the period AD 1180-1530 when the 18O contents remains below the long-term mean. Cross-correlation analyses between five cores from the Weddell Sea region and Dronning Maud Land show that 18O records can in some periods be positively correlated and in others negatively correlated, indicating a complex climatic history in time and space.
