This paper argues that the presence of external control of fluid composition during metamorphism of iron-formation should be indicated by the occurrence of high-grade rocks which either lack the bufering assemblages such as olivine-magnetite-quartz or by the presence of such assemblages in which the silicates show a very restricted range in composition. A review of high-grade iron-formations fr...

the study area is located at the sanandaj-sirjan zone in the west and north-west of azna and north-east of doroud, iran. the quartz-schists are divided into two main groups: amphibole-quartz schist and garnet-quartz schist. field and microstructural studies show several deformational phases. the d1 episode which is represented by s1, matches with m1 metamprphism and d2 deformation matches with ...

background: the presence of radionuclides in the soil, measures need to be taken to minimize the radiation dose to humans. it is mostly gamma-emitting radionuclides that contribute to the radiation dose in long term behavior of these radionuclides in soil may determine the extent to which such countermeasures need to be applied. materials and methods: the activity concentration of these radionu...

This paper presents a formalisation of the different existing code mutation techniques (polymorphism and metamorphism) by means of formal grammars. While very few theoretical results are known about the detection complexity of viral mutation techniques, we exhaustively address this critical issue by considering the Chomsky classification of formal grammars. This enables us to determine which fa...

Where plates converge, one-sided subduction generates two contrasting thermal environments in the subduction zone (low dT/dP) and in the arc and subduction zone backarc or orogenic hinterland (high dT/dP). This duality of thermal regimes is the hallmark of modern plate tectonics, which is imprinted in the ancient rock record as penecontemporaneous metamorphic belts of two contrasting types, one...

Abstract The continental margin of the northern South China Sea is considered to be a magma-poor rifted margin. This work uses new seismic, bathymetric, gravity, and magnetic data reveal how extensively magmatic processes have reshaped latter Widespread hydrothermal vent complexes edifices such as volcanoes, igneous sills, lava flows, associated domes are confirmed in broader area Sea. Newly id...
