    Notes: In order to identify the dominant non-Newtonian effects which occur during the injection of a new Newtonian magma through a partially crystallized magma chamber, we have performed some preliminary analogue experiments which enable us to point out several features induced by the non-Newtonian properties of the host fluid during injection processes. These experiments were performed in a three-dimensional device and involve complex non-Newtonian fluids—clay suspensions in which rheological properties such as bulk strength, yield strength and rheofluidification exponent may vary. Forced injection takes place through a slot which in the case of a Newtonian host fluid is the geometry that provides planar structures. Depending both on the density contrast and on the rheological contrast between the injected dyed water and the host fluid three kind of structures were observed: (1) permanent plumes when the injected water is lighter than the suspension exhibiting rheological properties close to Newtonian fluids; (2) pseudo-fountains and spreading at the bottom of the tank with a destabilizing density contrast and in high yield strength/more viscous suspensions; (3) fountains with a slightly stablizing density contrast. The implications for magma chamber evolution are briefly discussed. In particular it seems that homogeneous non-Newtonian media inhibit the formation of planar structures and partially crystallized magma may induce the spreading of the new magma at the bottom or at the top of the chamber regardless of the density contrast between the magmas.

    Notes: [Auszug] The seismicity recorded locally since 1972 in the Republic of Djibuti shows a marked contrast between a concentrated zone of earthquakes in the Gulf of Tadjoura and Ghoubbet al Kharab and a diffuse zone of seismicity west of the Ardoukoba Rift6'11 (Fig. la). In November and December 1978, a seismic ...

    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract The volcanics from Krivoklat-Rokycany complex (Barrandian synclinal of Bohemia) are investigated by the Rb-Sr whole-rock isochron method (λ 87Rb=1,47 10−11y−1). The age of 474±5 m. y. of these volcanics, stratigraphically overlain by the Tremadoc, implies that the Cambrian-Ordovician boundary, up to now estimated at 500 m. y. might be reset at about 470 m. y. The good quality of the isochron stresses the consanguinity of the different pétrographic terms of the Krivoklat-Rokycany volcanic series and the initial isotopic ratio87Sr/86Sr at 0,7041±0,0003 points out its infracrustal or mantle origin.
    Abstract: Résumé Nous présentons les résultats obtenus par la méthode rubidium-strontium (λ 87Rb=1,47 10−11 an−1) en isochrone de roches totales sur les volcanites de KrivoklatRokycany, dans le synclinal barrandien de BohÊme. L'âge à 474±5m. a., de ces volcanites, situées stratigraphiquement sous le Trémadoc, implique que la limite Cambrien-Ordovicien, estimée jusqu'ici à 500 m. a., doit plutÔt Être amenée aux environs de 470 m. a. La bonne qualité de l'isochrone souligne la consanguinité des différents termes pétrographiques de la suite volcanique de Krivoklat-Rokycany. Enfin, le rapport isotopique87Sr/86Sr initial, de 0,7041±0,0003, indique une origine infracrustale ou mantelique.

J. dieser Vulkanite, die vom Tremadoc bedeckt sind, impliziert, da\ die Kambrium/Ordovizium-Grenze, die bis jetzt auf 500 Mill. J. geschätzt wurde, bei ungefähr 470 Mill. J. gezogen werden mu\. Die gute Qualität der Isochrone zeigt die Verwandtschaft der verschiedenen petrographischen Fazies der Vulkanite.87Sr/86Sr-Werte von 0,7041±0,0003 ergeben eine Herkunft aus der unteren Kruste oder aus dem Mantel.

    Notes: [Auszug] Although the base of the Phanerozoic is an important date in the history of life and of the Earth's crust, few conclusive data have been available to estimate the numerical age of this boundary. Accurate and reliable modern data now exist, however, and those relevant modern radiometric dates ...

    Notes: Abstract The results of 26 dives with the diving saucer Cyana in the Gulf of Tadjoura and Ghoubbet al Kharab (Republic of Djibouti) are presented. One can demonstrate that the sites of recent volcanism, tectonics and hydrothermal activity within the axial part of the Gulf of Tadjoura coincide with topographic highs trending at a high angle (azimuth 135°) with respect to the average trend of the axial trough of the Gulf (azimuth 080°). The highs owe their relief to both volcanism and normal faulting along a trend of 130–140°. Recent faulting on the bounding walls of the axial trough is also found along a trend of 130–140° where the faults interfere with another set of apparently older faults trending 070° parallel to the axial trough. Spacing between the active zones of the Gulf is regular and about 30 km. No evidence for transform faulting has been found, in contradiction to all previous kinematic models of the Gulf of Tadjoura. There is evidence that the presently active phase of opening associated with 130–140° faults is less than 0.7 my old and that there was an older phase associated with 070°–080° faults creating the main trough of the Gulf. The basaltic lavas created during the two phases have evolved from transitional to tholeiitic.
