Abstract:

The United Verde orebody, a Proterozoic volcanogenic massive sulfide deposit, is hosted by the Cleopatra Formation. The Cleopatra Formation is subdivided into two distinct members, the Upper and Lower, on the basis of alteration facies, whole rock geochemistry and the chemistry of alteration minerals. The Lower member was deposited prior to ore deposition and consists of five major alteration facies. Facies Bl, the most distant from the orebody represents the recharge area for the ore-forming fluid. Facies B2 surrounds the major discharge area or the chlorite pipe. These three facies contain c

Abstract:

Stable isotope, stratigraphic and micropalaeontological studies provide an insight into the preservation of Tertiary global cooling episodes in shelf carbonate rocks from the Mandamus-Pahau District in North Canterbury. Local shelf carbonate isotope analysis (δ13C and δ18O) shows these shelf rocks have not retained the original sea-water isotopic signature but have been altered during burial diagenesis. The Palaeocene to Late Eocene Coal Creek Formation from this district is a glauconite-rich, inner shelf unit transitioning to a mid-outer shelf environment. Separation of this unit from the Mid

Abstract:

Laser Sintering is an Additive Manufacturing technology that uses digital files to construct 3-dimensional parts by depositing and consolidating layers of powdered material. Application of the technology for metal and ceramic powders is common but the focus of this work was on polymer laser sintering. A significant drawback for polymer laser sintering is the limited selection of materials currently available for use compared with more conventional processes such as injection moulding. This constrains the usefulness of the technology for designers and engineers. A primary reason for this is a l

Accelerated soil erosion is one of the major threats to agricultural production in Ethiopia and the Harerge region is not exceptional. It is estimated that about 1.5 billion tones of soil is being eroded every year in Ethiopia. In the extreme cases, especially for the highlands, the rate of soil loss is estimated to reach up to 300 t ha-1yr-1 with an average of about 70 t ha -1yr-1 which is beyond any tolerable level. The government have made different attempts to avert the situation since 1975 through initiation of a massive program of soil conservation and rehabilitation of severely degraded

Given its crucial role in atmospheric chemistry and its global warming potential, methane(CH4) deserves to be accurately budgeted. However, the recent renewed rise in atmosphericCH4 growth rates from 2007 on, after a few years of slow-down, attests that sources are notcompensated anymore by sinks, and calls for a better assessment of the processes contributingto the global CH4 budget. Among natural sources, oceanic emissions are still subject tomany uncertainties, due to the lack of sampling.

Abstract:

This thesis work deals with the volume changes during the solidification of cast irons and peritectic steels. The volume changes in casting metals are related to the expansion and/or contraction of the molten metal during solidification. Often, different types of shrinkage, namely macro- and micro-shrinkage, affect the casting quality. In addition to that, exposure of the metal casting to higher contraction or expansion during the solidification might also be related to internal strain development in samples, which eventually leads to surface crack propagation in some types of steel alloys dur

Abstract:

The stable isotopes 2H and 18O, combined with noble gases and radioisotopes (e.g., 3H, 14C, 36Cl), are used to infer groundwater age and climate during recharge. Flow regimes within low-velocity flowpaths and long residence times could allow an aquitard-aquifer diffusive flux to alter isotope abundance. Consequently, the diffusion of isotopes (e.g., 14C, 2H and 18O) between aquifers and confining layers needs to be considered in such conditions. In this study, COMSOL Multiphysics was used to determine if diffusion of 18O (and 2H by proxy) from a bounding aquitard could explain observed downgra

Nuclei at closed shells tend to be spherical and are well-described by the shell model, while those between closed shells are deformed and better described by collective models.

The principle of State sovereignty has served as a foundation of the international legal order for centuries because the State is traditionally considered to be the subject as well as the maker of international law. It is, however, a very contentious principle because many attempts have been made to give it a specific content, but this content has to be redefined in the light of modern trends and developments at the international level, which

Then we use two different descriptors to describe the region, such as ellipse expression and local affine frame construction. Ellipses for each region are computed from covariant matrix and can be normalized to a circle. Local affine frame (LAF) is another description to feature region. In this paper we use several distinguished points, such as geometric center of the region, bi-tangent points

Because of the distinctive performance, the index shift levels have been very popular. This thesis proposed a concept of "stable region" that is physically existence and can be used for determining the traveling distance of the shift level to guarantee a smooth up- and down-shifting characteristic.

Abstract:

Developing critical loads for nitrogen (N) in the Athabasca Oil Sands Region (AOSR) requires an understanding of the hydrological connectivity and potential for N transport among uplands, fens and bogs typical in the wetland-rich Boreal region of northern Alberta. The Cumulative Environmental Management Association’s (CEMA) overarching mandate is to determine a nitrogen critical load specific to the Boreal region of northern Alberta. To this end, nitrogen amendment experiments were initiated at two Boreal wetland sites: an upland – rich fen gradient at Jack Pine High (JPH) and an upland – fen

Abstract:

This study applies a life history approach to analyzing the identities of 52 Maya individuals who lived between 2000 BC and AD 900 in and around the city of Holmul, within the Petén region of Guatemala. Primary goals were to: (1) identify migrant and local individuals within the urban population; (2) determine 87Sr/86Sr isotope ratio signatures for the sites of Holmul, Cival, La Sufricaya, K’o, and Hamontun; (3) compile osteobiographies, personal life histories revealed through skeletal remains, of the individuals in the sample; and (4) evaluate evidence bearing on the identities of inhabitant

Abstract:

Trophic ecology is a key component in describing patterns of variation between and within populations, particularly in Arctic marine systems wherein climate change is impacting food webs. This thesis investigates the trophic ecology of Arctic char (Salvelinus alpinus) in the Cumberland Sound region using a multi-indicator approach. My data show trophic niche differences between resident and anadromous ecotypes and evidence for estuarine feeding by residents. I document a shift in the marine diet of Arctic char from zooplankton to capelin (Mallotus villosus) – a novel prey species in this regio

Abstract:

The hydrogeology, stable isotope distribution, and chemical distribution of Cl- and NO3--N within the Battersea Drainage Basin in southern Alberta were investigated. The Battersea Drainage Basin is characterized by widespread spreading of livestock manure on irrigated farmland and a high density of feedlots, creating concern about groundwater quality in the region. Past research has used conventional piezometers to study the source, distribution and fate of nitrate in the shallow groundwater. The key component of this research involved using the new technique of high-resolution profiling to de

Abstract:

This study utilizes stable isotope and dental microwear analyses to elucidate diet and subsistence practices of indigenous Muchik peoples interred at two sites in the Lambayeque region of northern Peru: La Capilla Santa María Magdalena De Eten (CSMME) (n=17) and La Capilla Del Niño Serranito (CNS) (n=18). Burials at CNS date to the Early Colonial Period (A.D. 1533-1620), while burials at CSMME date to the Mid- to Late-Colonial Period (A.D. 1625-1760). Dental microwear and stable isotope investigations reveal a highly correlated dietary profile across both sites, which suggests consistent subsi

abstract: The Middle Stone Age archaeological record from the south coast of South Africa contains significant evidence for early modern human behavior. The south coast is within the modern Greater Cape Floristic Region (GCFR), which in the present-day encompasses the entirety of South Africa’s Winter Rainfall Zone (WRZ) and contains unique vegetation elements that have been hypothesized to be of high utility to hunter-gatherer populations. Extant paleoenvironmental proxy records for the Pleistocene in the region often indicate evidence for more open environments during the past than occur in

碩士<br>國立中正大學<br>數學研究所<br>91<br>The multi-block predictor-corrector method(BPC) is one of the efficient and accurate method for solving the numerical solution of the ordinary differential equations. By choosing some suitable matrix coefficients in two schemes with repeated self-correcting processes, P(EC)^nE,n=1,2,...,we investigate and compare the corresponging changes of the stable regions. We also vary the coefficients matrix in the local truncation error to study the responses about the stable respectively.
