Features of fluid inclusions and sources of ore-forming fluid in the Maoping carbonate-hosted Zn-Pb-(Ag-Ge)deposit,Yunnan,China

The Maoping Zn-Pb-(Ag-Ge)deposit is an important representative of the medium-to large-sized carbonate-hosted Zn-Pb-(Ag)deposits in northeast Yunnan,occurring in the Sichuan-Yunnan-Guizhou Zn-Pb Ore-forming Zone.The spatial distribution of ore bodies were controlled by the NE-extending interstratified fault belts and inverted Maomaoshan fold.Generally,fluid inclusions within the major gangue minerals,as ferro-calcite,calcite and dolomite are dominated by two kinds of small inclusions (3～15μm)including pure-liquid and liquid.The inclusions exist in concentrated groups along the crystal planes of the gangue minerals.The ore-forming fluids belong to the Na~+-K~+-Ca~(2+)-Cl~--F~-type,are characterized by temperatures of 180～218℃,medium salinity in 4.1wt%～9.5wt% NaCl,and medium pressure at 406×10~5～570×10~5 Pa.The ratios of Na~+/K~+(1.54～4.53)and Cl~-/F~-(0.72～156.33)in the fluid inclusions of gangue minerals are relatively high,while those of Na~+/K~+(0.32～8.36)and Cl~-/F~-(1.06～16.77)in the inclusions of barite are relatively low.The waters of fluid inclusions have δD values from-23‰ to -64‰. The δ~(18)O_(V_SMOW)values of the ore-forming fluids range from 0.3‰ to 6.2‰ for galena,-9.0‰ to 3.4‰ for sphalerite,and -6.8‰ to-12.7‰ for pyrite. δ~(13)Cv_(V-PDB)values range from-1.1 to-3.7 for gangue minerals.These data better demonstrate that the ore-forming fluids were the compositing results of the magma water,metamorphic water and hosted water,and mainly derived from magmatic hot fluid and hosted formation water,in relation to the sedimentation,the metamorphism of the Kunyang Group in the basement and magmatic hydrothermalism.The deposit itself might have resulted from ascending cycles along metallogenic structures of ore-forming fluid,enriched in Pb,Zn and Ag.The deposit is related to carbonate-hosted Zn-Pb sulphides.
Synaccretionary sedimentary and volcanic rocks in the Ordovician Tetagouche backarc basin, New Brunswick, Canada: Evidence for a transition from foredeep to forearc basin sedimentation

Development of an Upper Ordovician to lower Silurian (Llandovery) accretionary wedge (Brunswick subduction complex) along the composite Laurentian margin accompanied subduction of the Tetagouche backarc basin and coincided with synaccretionary sedimentation in the Bathurst and Fournier supergroups in northern New Brunswick. These dominantly turbiditic synaccretionary units conformably to unconformably overlie Upper Ordovician pelagic shale and chert in the upper stratigraphic levels of several of the nappes that compose the imbricate thrust stack of the subduction complex. Local occurrences of tectonic mélange at the contacts between the turbidites and their pelagic substrate are consistent with deposition of at least some of the former during thrust-related deformation in the accretionary wedge. Detrital zircon data indicate maximum depositional ages ranging from 454 ± 3 to 459 ± 8 Ma, coeval with initiation of subduction of the Tetagouche backarc basin. In the Elmtree inlier, arc tholeiitic basalt disconformably or unconformably overlies Darriwilian MORB-type pillowed flows that constitute backarc oceanic crust of the Tetagouche basin. Sedimentary rocks immediately below and intercalated with the arc tholeiites contain detrital zircons ranging from 444 ± 6 Ma to 455 ± 10 Ma, suggesting that the tholeiites are related to backarc subduction. Detrital zircon age spectra from all sampled units exhibit a distinct Laurentian signature, indicating an abrupt change in provenance coeval with closure of the backarc basin and Ganderia – Laurentia collision. The lithology and implied ages of the Bathurst and Fournier synaccretionary sedimentary rocks support a correlation with siliciclastic and carbonate-rich turbidites of the Matapedia cover sequence, which were deposited farther west in a forearc setting (Matapedia forearc) with respect to subduction of Tetagouche backarc oceanic lithosphere. The implication of Late Ordovician influx onto the accretionary wedge and foredeep of sediments having a Laurentian affiliation (like those in the Matapedia forearc), demonstrates trenchward migration of forearc sedimentation between ca. 450 and 430 Ma. This southeastward (present coordinates) expansion occurred in concert with episodic accretion of buoyant crustal blocks that populated the Tetagouche – Exploits basin, and concomitant southeastward step-back of the subduction zone.

An Earthquake Early Warning System in Fujian, China

Abstract As one of the most economically developed and seismically active regions of China, Fujian faces a threat from severe earthquakes, particularly those that occur in Taiwan. Following the worldwide construction of an earthquake early warning (EEW) system, we developed an EEW system in Fujian in 2009 and began online testing in November 2012. During this testing, our EEW system successfully processed several earthquakes in both the Fujian region and Taiwan. The results showed that, for inland events (Fujian region), the first alarm was generated 6.4±0.97 s after the first station was triggered, with a location error of 4.6±4.0 km and magnitude estimation error of 0.6±0.5. For offshore events (Taiwan), the first alarm was generated 13.7±2.9 s after the first station was triggered, with a location error of 30.6±31.4 km and magnitude estimation error of −0.2±0.4. Online testing allows us to continuously improve and perfect our system. In 2017, our system will officially begin providing EEW information to the public in the Fujian region. In addition to the preceding, the architecture, key algorithms, software design, and online testing results are included in this article to provide readers with a comprehensive understanding of our EEW system.
The Meguma Zone of Nova Scotia — A Remnant of Western Europe, South America, or Africa?

Abstract The Meguma Zone is a very large block that is foreign to ancient North America. Paleoenvironments shoal upward from Cambro-Ordovician deep sea fans, through glaciomarine tillite to Silurian and Early Devonian paralic settings. The zone is a segment of an embankment of a continent that in the Early Mesozoic drifted to the southeast. Three candidates for this source-continent are discussed in this paper. The Avalon microcontinent is in fault-contact with the Meguma Zone, and extends to the southwest into the Southern Appalachians, and to the northeast into Western Europe (Southern Britain, France and Iberia). The Avalon and Meguma Zones evolved in different areas, as indicated by sediment compositions, dispersal, environment, paleontology, structural geology, pluton chemistry, and metallogenic evidence. Neither the Avalon nor its European extensions are probable source areas for the Meguma. Northwestern South America is a probable candidate as seen by paleomagnetic data, and general sedimentologic and tectonic patterns. Timing of both Early Paleozoic orogenic and glacial activity is difficult to determine with exactitude. Northwestern Africa is the third candidate. Early Paleozoic rocks of northwestern Morocco are very similar to those of the Meguma Zone. At present, both areas occur within a distinctive, narrow, fault-bounded crustal strip; during Early Paleozoic time, both areas were exotic to their respective continents. Their sedimentary rock was deposited simultaneously in an identical environment by similar agents of mass transport which moved in a similar direction from a similar source area. Later these strata were metamorphosed, deformed in a similar stress field, and intruded by granitic plutons. Difficulties arise with the ages of the latter. Two new hypotheses are postulated in order to resolve these geologic and paleomagnetic questions.
Leveling the Playing Field

Abstract Since 1998 there has been a 54% increase in the number of travelers using the Internet to obtain information on destination or make travel arrangements. Travel has become the Web's top e-tail segment with online hotel bookings hitting $164 million in revenues (AAHOA Hospitality, May, 2000). With Internet traffic doubling every 100 days a “flash point” in technology has been reached. When technology becomes commonplace and seen as an integral part of the marketplace a flash point occurs (Chandler, 2000). Electronic commerce has revolutionized the way services are delivered and changed the traditional relationship between consumers and service providers (Zeithaml & Bitner, 2000). The purpose of this research is to analyze and compare the impact marketing technology application has on lodging properties in the pursuit of individual travelers. This exploratory study identified issues that respondents felt were important and affected their marketing and management activities.
Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities Hospitalizations among Children and Youth with Autism in the United States: Frequency, Characteristics and Costs.

: National estimates of hospitalization diagnoses and costs were determined using the 2016 HCUP Kids’ Inpatient Database. Children and youth with autism were hospitalized over 45,000 times at over $560 million in costs and 260,000 inpatient days. The most frequent principal diagnoses for hospitalizations of children and youth with autism were epilepsy, mental health conditions, pneumonia, asthma, and gastrointestinal disorders, which resulted in almost $200 million in costs and 150,000 inpatient days. Mental health diagnoses accounted for 24.8% of hospitalizations, an estimated $82 million in costs, and approximately 94,000 inpatient days. Children and youth with autism were more likely hospitalized for epilepsy, mental health diagnoses, and gastrointestinal disorders, and less likely for pneumonia and asthma compared to other children and youth.

Use of Information and Communication Technology (ICT) Tools by Rural Farmers in Ratnagiri District of Maharastra, India

This paper discusses the impact of information and communication technology (ICT) on the access for rural farmers from the Ratnagiri district to agricultural information. A study was undertaken in which more than one hundred randomly selected farmers completed a structured questionnaire to gather information at household level of the use of ICT. Interviews were also conducted with key stakeholders, service providers and government officials. Findings from the study indicated that farmers were most interested in obtaining market price information. Examination of the relationship between use of ICT tools and co factors such as age, qualifications and income indicated that only income was a determining factor of using ICT tools.

WATER REQUIREMENTS AND CROP COEFFICIENT OF DATE PALM TREES "SUKARIAH CV."

Data of a field experiment carried out at the farm of date palm trees at an arid region of the middles Kingdom of Saudi Arabia were used to evaluate the evapotranspiration and the crop coefficient during the 2004 fruiting cycle of a date palm tree. The individual date palm tree evapotranspiration was obtained by two methods: Bowen ratio-energy balance (BREB) and soil water balance (SWB). Sensors for net radiation, two levels dry and wet bulbs air temperature and wind speed were installed above a date palm tree level in a micrometeorological tower. Soil heat flux sensors were installed at 2 cm below soil surface and soil moisture content was measured by sets of tensiometers installed each at 20 cm from the surface down to 220 cm soil depth. Daily date palm tree evapotranspiration increased slowly from 2.341mm per day in February month at pollination stage to 7.29 mm per day in July month at the kalal stage then it decreased to 5.345 mm/day in September month at the end of tamer stage. After the date palm tree harvest, the crop evapotranspiration of the date palm tree was declined to reach the minimum values of evapotranspiration 1.862 mm/day at the periods of December and January months. The accumulated date palm tree water consumption for the whole year was 1644 and 1775.7 mm by the soil water and Bowen ratio-energy balance methods, respectively. Also, in the study region, the date palm tree water requirements are not constant throughout the productive cycle. However, it can be estimated by the crop coefficient (Kc) obtained as a function of the days after pollination (DAP) with. R 2 = 0.9803 as: Kc =9E-11*(DAP) 4 -4E-08*(DAP) 3 -7E07*(DAP) 2 + 0.0013*(DAP) + 0.6042
Anatomical variability in the cortical representation of first and second language

FUNCTIONAL magnetic resonance imaging was used to assess inter-subject variability in the cortical representation of language comprehension processes. Moderately fluent French-English bilinguals were scanned while they listened to stories in their first language (L1 = French) or in a second language (L2 = English) acquired at school after the age of seven. In all subjects, listening to L1 always activated a similar set of areas in the left temporal lobe, clustered along the left superior temporal sulcus. Listening to L2, however, activated a highly variable network of left and right temporal and frontal areas, sometimes restricted only to right-hemispheric regions. These results support the hypothesis that first language acquisition relies on a dedicated left-hemispheric cerebral network, while late second language acquisition is not necessarily associated with a reproducible biological substrate. The postulated contribution of the right hemisphere to L2 comprehension1 is found to hold only on average, individual subjects varying from complete right lateralization to standard left lateralization for L2.
ROLE OF EPIDERMAL GROWTH FACTOR RECEPTOR TRANSACTIVATION IN THE ACTIVATION OF CYTOSOLIC PHOSPHOLIPASE A 2 IN LEPTIN PROTECTION OF SALIVARY GLAND ACINAR CELLS AGAINST ETHANOL CYTOTOXICITY

Leptin, a pleiotropic 16 kDa peptide hormone product of the ob gene, is secreted predominantly by adipose tissue and well recognized for its role in the maintenance of body mass and energy expenditure (1-3). Moreover, advances in understanding the functional role of leptin in the processes affecting various tissues throughout the body, have brought to the forefront the importance of the local release of this cytokine to the processes of mucosal defense and repair (4-7). Consistent with its pluripotent nature, leptin and leptin receptors have been identified in oral mucosa, saliva, and the acinar cells of salivary glands (8). Leptin released locally within the mucosal tissue has been implicated in the interaction with proinflammatory cytokines, regulation of NO production, and the modulation of arachidonic acid generation by impacting the events of cytosolic phospholipase A2 (cPLA2) activation (6, 7, 9-11). The increase in leptin level characterizes oral mucosal responses to injury, and the exogenous leptin is known to accelerate wound repair, and protects the acinar cells of salivary glands against cytotoxic effects of ethanol (7, 11, 12). The oral mucosal responses to ethanol cytotoxicity are manifested by the elevation in proinflammatory cytokine production, enhancement in epithelial cell apoptosis, disturbances in epidermal growth factor and nitric oxide signaling pathways, and the impairment in prostaglandin generation, (13-15). Moreover, salivary glands of alcoholics and animals exposed to ethanol display the evidence of fatty infiltration, acinar cell swelling, and change in cytoplasm vacuolation accompanied by cellular degeneration and even atrophy (16, 17). Interestingly, recent evidence indicates that the critical event responsible for rapid changes in prostaglandin production is the selective channeling of arachidonic acid substrate, released from membrane glycerophospholipids by the action of cPLA2 enzyme, to the site of cyclooxygenase-2 (COX2) action for prostaglandin synthesis (18, 19). The activity of cPLA2 is tightly regulated by post-translational mechanism involving MAPK/ERK-dependent enzyme protein phosphorylation and calcium influx that facilitate the enzyme translocation from cytosol to phospholipid-rich membrane (20, 21). There are also reports suggesting that cPLA2 is a downstream effector of ERK in leptin signaling through Src, and that leptininduced responses mediated by ERK involve epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) transactivation (22-24). Review of the pertinent literature indicates that the signaling cross-talk involving EGFR transactivation is implicated in the regulation of a wide variety of cell functions of significance to oral mucosal repair and integrity maintenance, including cellular proliferation, differentiation, survival, and migration to the site of injury (24, 25).

Deep seafloor magnetic observations under GEOSTAR project

The Earth’s magnetism has its origin mainly within the fluid outer core by a dynamo mechanism that produces an essentially dipolar geomagnetic field (95% of the total field), whose axis is slightly inclined with respect to the rotation axis by about 10°. In detail around 98% of the total field measured at the Earth’s surface is of internal origin and 1% of the total field is due to crustal magnetisation characterising the different tectonic plates. The measured geomagnetic field also includes external fields whose sources are in the ionosphere and magnetosphere that, together with their crustal induced counterparts, contribute about 1% of the total field. Finally, the oceans also make a small contribution through the motions of seawater in the geomagnetic field. The geomagnetic field changes with time. Among its variations we recall, listed from longer to shorter characteristic periods: a) the secular variation, which is the slow (annual, decadal, and secular) trend of the field; b) solar diurnal variation, which is the daily oscillation due to the solar ionisation of the high atmosphere; c) bays, substorms and storms (range: from a few minutes to 1-2 days), the latter representing the most rapid variations with significant amplitude recorded by geomagnetic observatories on the Earth’s surface. Since land covers only around 1/3 of the Earth’s surface, to better understand the morphology of the geomagnetic field it is necessary to extend magnetic observations to the seafloors. Measuring the geomagnetic field beneath the sea has the characteristic that the external rapidly varying fields are partially screened by seawater (average conductivity of 3-4 S/m depending on salinity), while slowly varying fields, which are of internal origin, are practically unperturbed. The simultaneous magnetic variations recorded on the seafloor and at different locations on land are also related to the presence of electrical conductive layers or
