The osmotic pressure and chemical composition of human body fluids.
The total osmotic pressure (osmolarity) of each of a series of true body fluids has been measured and compared with that of the corresponding serum. Included were ascitic, cerebrospinal, hydrocele, edema, pericardial, pleural, spermatocele, and synovial fluids. In each case, the fluid was found to have the same osmolarity as that of the corresponding serum within the limits of experimental erro...
متن کاملZinc isotope evidence for sulfate-rich fluid transfer across subduction zones
Subduction zones modulate the chemical evolution of the Earth's mantle. Water and volatile elements in the slab are released as fluids into the mantle wedge and this process is widely considered to result in the oxidation of the sub-arc mantle. However, the chemical composition and speciation of these fluids, which is critical for the mobility of economically important elements, remain poorly c...
متن کاملThe structure and dynamics of the mantle wedge
A large amount of water is brought into the Earth’s mantle at subduction zones. Upon subduction, water is released from the subducting slab in a series of metamorphic reactions. The resulting flux into the mantle wedge modifies its chemical and physical properties by mineral hydration with associated weakening, flux melting and changes in the dynamics and thermal structure of subduction zones. ...
متن کاملMobilizing aluminum in crustal and mantle fluids
Aluminum is a major rock-forming element, but its low solubility in H2O at upper crustal conditions has led to the assumption that it is effectively immobile during fluid–rock interaction in the deep crust and upper mantle. However, new experimental results on Al solubility in H2O–SiO2–NaCl fluids at high pressure and temperature challenge this view. The combined effects of temperature, pressur...
