Sandbian

Sandbian

The productive layer of the Estonian oil shale deposit as seen in the Põhja-Kiviõli II opencast mine. The productive layer is made up of oil shale layers A through F1 together with the limestone layers in between. However, in some cases, layers F2, G and H (visible in the image, but not labeled) are also mined. The oil shale beds are marked on the image with capital letters, limestone layers are labeled with a combination of two capital letters, indicating at their location within the productive layer. Dashed lines indicate layer boundaries, which are harder to distinguish and are thus approximations. Stratigraphy: the productive layer of the Estonian oil shale deposit is part of the Kiviõli Member of the Viivikonna Formation. The formation belongs to Upper-Ordovician Kukruse Regional Stage (global Sandbian Stage). (Source reference: Heikki Bauert and Olle Hints "XI Baltic Stratigraphical Conference. Abstracts and Field Guide", Stop 4: Põhja-Kiviõli II open-pit mine, page 85, figure 4.4).

Dies ist die deutsche Übersetzung des Bildes und der Bildbeschreibung aus dem Englischen. Entwicklung der globalen Erwärmung Letzte 2000 Jahre Dieses Bild zeigt den Vergleich von 10 verschiedenen Rekonstruktionen des Temperaturmittelwerts während der letzten 1000 Jahre. Neuere Rekonstruktionen erscheinen im Vordergrund und in rötlicheren Farben, ältere im Hintergrund und in bläulicheren Farben. Außerdem ist eine Kurve historischer Temperaturmessungen in schwarz dargestellt. Die mittelalterliche Warmzeit und kleine Eiszeit sind markiert zu den Zeiten, bei denen angenommmen wird, daß sie dann stattgefunden haben, obwohl noch immer darüber gestritten wird, ob es wirklich globale oder nur lokale Ereignisse waren. Der ungeglättete Wert für das Jahr 2004 ist auch dargestellt zum Vergleich. (Image:Instrumental_Temperature_Record_de.png zeigt, wie 2004 sich zu anderen Jahren der nahen Vergangenheit verhält). Es ist nicht bekannt, welche dieser Rekonstruktionen eine genaue Repräsentation der Klimageschichte darstellt, falls das überhaupt für eine zutrifft. Diese Kurven stellen jedoch eine faire Repräsentation des Bereichs der Ergebnisse in der veröffentlichten wissenschaftlichen Literatur dar. Daher ist es wahrscheinlich, daß solche Rekonstruktionen - egal ob genau oder nicht - eine bedeutende Rolle spielen werden in den fortlaufenden Diskussionen über globale Klimaänderungen und globale Erwärmung. Die Rohdaten für jede Rekonstruktion wurden geglättet mit einem Gauß-Filter mit 5 Jahren Varianz und gleitendem Mittelwert. Außerdem wurde jede Rekonstruktion so angepaßt, daß ihr Mittelwert dem Mittelwert der instrumentell gemessenen Daten entspricht im Zeitraum der Überlappung. Die Varianz (d.h. die Skala der Schwankungen) wurde nicht angepaßt (mit einer unten angegebenen Ausnahme). Man beachte, daß viele Rekonstruktionen des früheren Klimas erhebliche Fehlerbalken zeigen, die in diesem Bild nicht dargestellt sind. Benutzte Rekonstruktionen in der Reihenfolge von ältester zu neuester Veröffentlichung: #(dunkelblau 1000-1991): #(blau 1000-1980): #(hellblau 1000-1965): #(sehr helles blau 1402-1960): #(hellgrün 831-1992): #(gelb 200-1980): #(orange 200-1995): #(rotorange 1500-1980): #(rot 1-1979): #(dunkelrot 1600-1990): (schwarz 1856-2004): Instrumentelle Daten wurden gemeinsam zusammengestellt vom Climatic Research Unit und dem UK Meteorological Office Hadley Centre. Benutzt wurde das Global Annual Average data set TaveGL2v [1]. Die Dokumentation für das neueste Update der instrumentellen Daten von CRU/Hadley erscheint in: #Die Daten von Moberg et al. wurden direkt aus der Begleitinformation zum Artikel in Nature entnommen. #Die Daten für Oerlemans wurden zur Verfügung gestellt von William M. Connolley. #Esper et al. berichteten nur von "willkürlichen" Einheiten, weshalb die Varianz dieser Daten so skaliert wurde, daß sie derjenigen der instrumentellen Daten während des Überlappungszeitraums entspricht. #Wenn ein Artikel mehrere Rekonstruktionen enthielt, wurden die globalen jährlichen mittleren Temperaturen verwendet. Falls diese fehlten, wurden die jährlichen Mittelwerte für die Nordhalbkugel verwendet. #Vier Datensätze, die be [2] erscheinen, wurden aus folgenden Gründen nicht zur Erzeugung dieses Diagramms benutzt: ##Mann et al. 98 wurde nicht aufgenommen, weil Mann et al. 99 diese Daten erweitert und neue Messungen enthält. ##Briffa et al. 98 wurde nicht aufgenommen, weil Briffa et al. 2001 diese Daten erweitert und neue Messungen enthält. ##Pollack et al. 98 wurde nicht aufgenommen, weil die berichteten Daten nicht in einer für ein Diagramm leicht zu verwendenden Form sind. ##Mann et al. 2000 wurde nicht aufgenommen, weil es keine Originalrekonstruktion enthielt, die mindestens die Nordhalbkugel überdeckt.

Chert & phosphorite in the Permian of Wyoming, USA. The Permian-aged Phosphoria Formation has a significant component of phosphorite, a scarce, phosphate-rich sedimentary rock. This material is mined in southern Idaho as a source of phosphorus for the fertilizer industry, the fireworks industry, and other uses. Phosphorites are generally considered to have >15-20% phosphate content. Texturally, phosphorites can be obviously granular, with fossil fragments or oolites or peloids or lithic fragments, or they can be composed of extremely fine-grained, phosphate-rich mud. Compositionally, the phosphate component in phosphorites is principally a mix of apatite minerals: chlorapatite (Ca5(PO4)3Cl), fluorapatite (Ca5(PO4)3F), hydroxyapatite (Ca5(PO4)3OH)), and carbonate fluorapatite (Ca10(PO4,CO3)6F2-3). Phosphorites are generally marine sedimentary rocks. They range in age from Precambrian to Holocene. In modern oceans, they tend to occur along the eastern margins of some ocean basins where deep-water upwelling occurs under areas of high biologic productivity. Stratigraphy: Rex Chert Member over Meade Peak Member, Phosphoria Formation, Roadian Stage to Wordian Stage, lower Guadalupian Series, mid-Permian Locality: roadcut on the northern side of Route 26/Route 89 at the town of Astoria Hot Springs, Snake River Canyon, southern Teton County, northwestern Wyoming, USA
