In this paper, by means of X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), and Raman spectroscopy, graphite with different metamorphism degrees has been characterized to explore the evolution of macromolecular structure of organic matter during graphitization. The results show that with the increase of metamorphism degree, the 002-diffraction peak of the series of samples gradually shrinks and narrows, and the peak intensity becomes stronger, indicating that the microcrystalline structure gradually becomes regular and ordered. As the degree of graphitization increase, the uniformity of particle size in coal samples observed gradually increases, and the morphology becomes more regular, transitioning from disordered and irregular shapes to a structured large-scale flake pattern. The crystallinity improves, and the massive coal particles gradually coalesce into large plate crystals, with the inter-particle pores gradually closing. The graphite structure becomes increasingly evident. The FTIR spectra show that as the degree of graphitization increases, the peak at 1,581 cm<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup> corresponding to C=C vibrations gradually intensifies. Some inert functional groups are retained throughout the graphitization process. The pores between coal particles gradually close, and the morphology of graphite particles becomes more regular and ordered. Additionally, during the graphitization process, structures similar to carbon nanotubes may develop. Throughout the structural transformation from coal macromolecules to graphite crystals, the size of the <jats:italic>sp</jats:italic><jats:sup>2</jats:sup> planar domains in single-layer graphene increases, and the lattice structure of carbon atoms gradually enlarges. These findings contribute to a comprehensive understanding of the properties and characteristics of coal-derived graphite, and can provide theoretical reference and basis for the metallogenic mechanism of coal-derived graphite and the efficient utilization of coal.","PeriodicalId":12359,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Earth Science","volume":"208 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142269391","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

On 25 July 2020, one such landslide in Liujing Village, Wulong District, Chongqing, China, experienced reactivation. This event exhibited variable movement characteristics across different areas and times, ultimately manifesting as a chain-type failure. Combining field investigations and drilling works, this study describes the fundamental characteristics of the Zhongbao landslide and the variation rules of the seepage field and the stability by numerical simulations. The failure mechanism is preliminarily revealed, and the failure influencing factors are discussed. The results show that, the landslide’s progression was influenced by the stratigraphic lithology and the morphology of the sliding surface, resulting in two distinct turns during its movement. By analyzing the landslide’s spatial morphology, direction of sliding, material composition, extent of the accumulation area, and dynamic behavior, we have categorized the Zhongbao landslide into five principal zones. The failure process can be segmented into four stages: initiation, shear-out, acceleration, and accumulation blockage. Heavy rainfall served as the primary trigger for the landslide, while the microtopography of the sliding surface significantly influenced the failure dynamics. The insights gained from this study offer valuable guidance for understanding the reactivation mechanisms of similar chained ancient landslides in the geologically analogous regions of Southwest China.","PeriodicalId":12359,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Earth Science","volume":"34 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-19","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142269389","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The composition variation between the upper and lower crust causes remarkable changes of rheological properties and variation in stress distribution. Clarifying the detailed stress distribution in the upper and lower crust is crucial for understanding the brittle–ductile transition and the stress environment of the seismogenic zone. The Southeastern Tibetan Plateau (SETP), with wide spread of active strike−slip faults and clustered earthquakes, provides a natural field for investigating the relationships between crustal stresses, deformation behaviors, and earthquake mechanics. By considering the rheological properties of granite and anorthite, this paper established stress models with different boundary depths (15, 20 and 25 km) between the upper and lower crust along the Anninghe, Xianshuihe, and Longmenshan Faults in the SETP with a horizontal strain of 6 × 10<jats:sup>−4</jats:sup> extracted from <jats:italic>in situ</jats:italic> stress data. The stress model with different geothermal gradients and a boundary depth of 20 km between the upper and lower crust suggests two distinct types of the brittle–ductile transition below these three faults. Simultaneously, the stress model can account for the continuity of earthquake depth distribution below the Longmenshan Fault and the seismic gap below the Anninghe and Xianshuihe Faults. The continuity of earthquake depth distribution or seismic gap below these three faults can be explained by their different geothermal gradients. These findings provide new insights for understanding the stress environment of the seismogenic zone in the SETP. Our model reveals the relationships between differential stress, seismicity, brittle–ductile transition, and boundary depth of the upper and lower crust in the continental crust, and connects the multiple observations from geophysics and geology. Furthermore, our model provides insights for studying multiple processes in the continental crust, such as crustal deformation, fault slip, and earthquake occurring.","PeriodicalId":12359,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Earth Science","volume":"10 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258246","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It is thus extremely important to recognize how, when and where these structures form within a lava flow field for hazard assessment purposes, in order to plan possible interventions should a lava flow approach inhabited areas. Often being formed within thick and complex lava flow fields, lava tubes are difficult to detect, study and explore. In this study, we analyse the 1792–93 Etna lava flow field emplaced on a steep slope (&amp;gt;4°) which comprises several lava tubes located at different distances from the eruptive fissure, at different levels within the lava flow field, and showing various inner morphologies, with peculiar inner features related to their maturity and eruptive history. Our aim is to verify whether it is possible to connect the underground features with features observed on the lava flow surface in order to reconstruct the extension of the tube network and unravel the genetic processes. Our results show that, in the studied lava flow field, a clear correspondence is possible between shallow tubes emplaced late during the lava flow field growth and surface textures. In addition, vertical and horizontal tube capture is very widespread, and might be the primary process for lava tube persistence and long life. Our results might be applicable to other lava tubes on Earth and other rocky planets.","PeriodicalId":12359,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Earth Science","volume":"18 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142258247","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study aims to utilize remote sensing and aeromagnetic data, combined with the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) based GIS, to evaluate potential groundwater zones in the Sohag area, Egypt.MethodsNine thematic layers, including soil moisture, rainfall, lithology, normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), drainage density, lineament density, slope, and land use/land cover, were developed using various remote sensing datasets. Besides the remote sensing-derived thematic layers, a geophysics-derived thematic layer represented by the RTP aeromagnetic map was included. The aeromagnetic data were analyzed and interpreted to outline the subsurface structure affecting groundwater storage and flow. Also, the aeromagnetic data analysis helps estimate the basement depth that constitutes the Nubian Aquifer’s base and identifies regions with considerable thick sedimentary deposits and significant water reserves.Results and discussionThe groundwater potentiality map was consistent with production wells in the area, and sites for drilling new wells were predicted, especially in the Nile Valley around the Tahta, El-Hamimia, and west Sohag cities. The most promising sites are clustered along the Nile Valley, and the study area’s northwestern and northeastern parts. The results indicate that the predominant magnetic structural trends are NW-SE, NE-SW, N-S, and E-W, which contribute to the formation of a series of subsurface horsts (H) and grabens (G). Three main basins (A, B, and C) were identified as the most profound areas. These basins represent the most promising areas for groundwater accumulation, making them attractive for future hydrogeological exploration. This integrated approach strongly offers a powerful and effective tool to assist in developing an appropriate plan to manage groundwater in arid regions.","PeriodicalId":12359,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Earth Science","volume":"162 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142179461","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although the δ<jats:sup>138</jats:sup>Ba of water masses is primarily controlled by the balance between pelagic barite precipitation and Ba resupply from ocean circulation, questions remain regarding the isotopic offset associated with pelagic barite formation and how the resultant Ba isotope compositions are transmitted through the water column to marine sediments. To address these questions, we conducted a time series study of dissolved, particulate, and sedimentary Ba chemistry in the Gulf of Aqaba (GOA), in the northern Red Sea, from January 2015 to April 2016. These data span significant seasonal changes in hydrography, primary productivity, and aerosol deposition, revealing three principal findings. First, the dissolved Ba chemistry of the GOA is vertically uniform across the time series, largely reflecting water mass advection from the Red Sea, with mean dissolved Ba concentrations of 47.9 ± 4.7 nmol kg<jats:sup>−1</jats:sup> and mean δ<jats:sup>138</jats:sup>Ba = +0.55‰ ± 0.07‰ (±2 SD, <jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 18). Second, despite significant variations in particulate matter composition and flux, the δ<jats:sup>138</jats:sup>Ba of sinking particulate Ba maintained a consistent isotope composition across different depths and over time at +0.09‰ ± 0.06‰ (<jats:italic>n</jats:italic> = 26). Consequently, these data imply a consistent Ba isotope offset of −0.46‰ ± 0.10‰ (±2 SD) between sinking particulates and seawater. This offset is similar to those determined in previous studies and indicates that it applies to particulates formed across diverse environmental conditions. Third, barite-containing sediment samples deposited in the GOA exhibit δ<jats:sup>138</jats:sup>Ba = +0.34‰ ± 0.03‰, which is offset by approximately +0.2‰ relative to sinking particles. While the specific mechanism driving this offset remains unresolved, our results highlight the importance of performing site-specific proxy validations and exercising careful site selection when applying novel paleoceanographic proxies.","PeriodicalId":12359,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Earth Science","volume":"39 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-12","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142179460","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The analysis revealed that the LURR value peaked 1 month before the earthquake and then declined within half a month, indicating that the rock medium in the seismic gestation area was approaching the end of its yielding phase. Further investigation using the Outgoing Longwave Radiation (OLR) data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) satellite was conducted to study the short-term and imminent anomalous evolution of ground longwave radiation values after the high values declined (from May 14 to 25). The results showed that, spatially, significant and continuous OLR anomalies were observed only in the northern area of the epicenter before the earthquake, and these anomalies exhibited a trend of expanding towards the epicenter. Temporally, the entire anomalous evolution process can be divided into six phases: initial warming, anomaly expansion, peak intensity, anomaly weakening, earthquake occurrence, and anomaly disappearance. To validate this finding, the spatiotemporal evolution characteristics of LURR and OLR within 300 km of the epicenter and its surrounding areas before the <jats:italic>M</jats:italic>s6.4 earthquake in Yangbi, Yunnan Province, on 21 May 2021, were analyzed, and similar patterns were found. These results suggest that the high LURR value before its decline may mark the end of the rock medium’s yielding phase, and OLR data can reflect, to some extent, the state of tectonic stress accumulation along active faults in a critical condition. A comprehensive study of the anomalous evolution characteristics of these two physical parameters before the earthquake is not only conducive to the continuity from long-term to short-term forecasts but also of great significance for more accurately assessing the trend of seismic activity.","PeriodicalId":12359,"journal":{"name":"Frontiers in Earth Science","volume":"6 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.9,"publicationDate":"2024-09-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142179463","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A rockburst intensity tendency index, quantified through microseismic (MS) monitoring, is introduced and integrated into the RMR system, resulting in the development of an engineering rock mass quality classification system for deep-buried hard rock tunnels (DHRT-RMR). The development process involves: (i) selecting input parameters, including the rockburst intensity tendency index, and defining their weightings using the AHP; and (ii) establishing the DHRT-RMR system based on the principles of the RMR system. The rockburst intensity tendency index, DHRT-RMR system, and RMR system are then applied to two test sites selected from a tunnel in southwest China. Results indicate that the standalone use of RMR or the rockburst intensity tendency index is limited in engineering rock mass classification for deep-buried hard rock tunnels.
