    Notes: Abstract Mount Drum is one of the youngest volcanoes in the subduction-related Wrangell volcanic field (80x200 km) of southcentral Alaska. It lies at the northwest end of a series of large, andesite-dominated shield volcanoes that show a northwesterly progression of age from 26 Ma near the Alaska-Yukon border to about 0.2 Ma at Mount Drum. The volcano was constructed between 750 and 250 ka during at least two cycles of cone building and ring-dome emplacement and was partially destroyed by violent explosive activity probably after 250 ka. Cone lavas range from basaltic andesite to dacite in composition; ring-domes are dacite to rhyolite. The last constructional activity occured in the vicinity of Snider Peak, on the south flank of the volcano, where extensive dacite flows and a dacite dome erupted at about 250 ka. The climactic explosive eruption, that destroyed the top and a part of the south flank of the volcano, produced more than 7 km3 of proximal hot and cold avalanche deposits and distal mudflows. The Mount Drum rocks have medium-K, calc-alkaline affinities and are generally plagioclase phyric. Silica contents range from 55.8 to 74.0 wt%, with a compositional gap between 66.8 and 72.8 wt%. All the rocks are enriched in alkali elements and depleted in Ta relative to the LREE, typical of volcanic arc rocks, but have higher MgO contents at a given SiO2, than typical orogenic medium-K andesites. Strontium-isotope ratios vary from 0.70292 to 0.70353. The compositional range of Mount Drum lavas is best explained by a combination of diverse parental magmas, magma mixing, and fractionation. The small, but significant, range in 87Sr/86Sr ratios in the basaltic andesites and the wide range of incompatible-element ratios exhibited by the basaltic andesites and andesites suggests the presence of compositionally diverse parent magmas. The lavas show abundant petrographic evidence of magma mixing, such as bimodal phenocryst size, resorbed phenocrysts, reaction rims, and disequilibrium mineral assemblages. In addition, some dacites and andesites contain Mg and Ni-rich olivines and/or have high MgO, Cr, Ni, Co, and Sc contents that are not in equilibrium with the host rock and indicate mixing between basalt or cumulate material and more evolved magmas. Incompatible element variations suggest that fractionation is responsible for some of the compositional range between basaltic andesite and dacite, but the rhyolites have K, Ba, Th, and Rb contents that are too low for the magmas to be generated by fractionation of the intermediate rocks. Limited Sr-isotope data support the possibility that the rhyolites may be partial melts of underlying volcanic rocks.

    Notes: Summary A-B block copolymers in a selective solvent—good for the B-species and bad for the A-species—form micellar aggregates with a compact A-core with a corona (brush) of B «hairs» reaching into the solvent. Whereas polystyrene(PS)-polyisoprene(PI) in decane forms spherical micelles with a PS core of about 10 nm radius, polyethylene(PE)-polyethylenepropylene(PEP) forms micellar platelets, the shape of which is goverend by the habitus of PE crystallites forming the core. These planar aggregates have large (several hundred nanometers) lateral extension and a core thickness in the range of 10 nm. Both systems are model systems for polymer brushes, either on a spherical surface or planar. Neutron spin-echo experiments allow for the investigation of the dynamics of the brushes which reflects their viscoelastic properties. Results of neutron small-angle and spin-echo investigations are reported. The brush dynamics is explained using a model based on an idea of de Gennes describing the brush properties in terms of scaling relations for osmotic pressure and viscosity of a semi-dilute solution with inhomogeneous density.

    Description / Table of Contents: Abstract Based on many new fossil discoveries mainly conodonts and ostracodes an attempt has been made to determine the stratigraphic range of the high pressure/low temperature metamorphic Phyllite Group in West Crete (Greece). The numerous conodont findings indicate — in spite of strong supply of clastic material — a fully marine environment from the Upper Carboniferous up to the end of the Lower Triassic. The prevailing part of the Middle Triassic cannot yet covered by fossils. The upper Triassic shows in the lower (invers) part of the Phyllite Group a shallow water facies with ostracodes, bivalves and at the Triassic/Lias boundary a saliniferous facies, however in the upper (in original position lying) part a conodonts-foraminiferes bearing littoral facies. The present biostratigraphic data point out that the lower part of the Phyllite Group lies in inverted order and the upper part in original position. Thus the Phyllite Group on the whole seems (in West Crete) to form a huge recumbent isoclinal fold analogous to the isoclinal folding on a smaller scale as frequently exposed. The carbonate Trypali Group can be interpreted as either the recumbent limb of this fold structure or as part of the underlying Talea Ori Group. The Trypali Group seems not to be a particular unit. For the reconstruction of the paleogeographic and geodynamic evolution of the South Aegean region the following evidence may be important: 1. the marine sedimentation in the Upper Palaeozoic and the Lower Triassic, especially the marine Upper Permian (Dorashamian), an isolated occurrence 2000 km away from comparable sediments further east and 2. the obvious termination of deposition at the Triassic/Lias boundary. A future interpretation of these results may be the key to a better understanding of the geodynamic process which led to the high pressure/low temperature metamorphism of the Phyllite Group.
    Abstract: Résumé De nouvelles et nombreuses découvertes de fossiles — surtout de conodontes et ostracodes — dans le groupe des phyllades à métamorphisme HP/BT de la Crète occidentale permettend de définir l'ampleur stratigraphique de cette série sédimentaire et de donner des indications sur leur développement paléogéographique et tectonique. Pour la période s'étendant du Carbonifère supérieur à la fin du Trias inférieur, il faut admettre sur la base de nombreuses faunes de conodontes — mis à part quelques interruptions — des conditions pleinement marines. La majeure partie du Trias moyen n'a pu jusqu'à présent être certifié par des fossiles. Le Trias supérieur montre dans la partie inférieure de l'entité phyllitique un facies d'eau peu profonde riche en ostracodes et en bivalves, ainsi qu' un facies lagunaire à la limite Trias/Lias, et, dans le partie supérieure, un facies littoral à conodontes et foraminifères. Ces données biostratigraphiques montrent pour la partie inférieure de l'entité phyllitique une disposition renversée, et pour sa partie supérieure une disposition normale. Parl' analogie avec le plissement isoclinal du groupe des phyllades là où il affleure, on admet que l'entité phyllitique dans son ensemble constitue un grand pli couché isoclinal. Il en résulte que le groupe carbonaté de Trypali représente soit une fraction du flanc renversé de cette grande structure isoclinale, soit une fraction du groupe de Talea-Ori. Mais il ne représente certainement pas une entité proprement dite. Pour les reconstructions paléogéographiques et géodynamiques deux résultats avant tout sont intéressants: 1. la sédimentation marine du Paléozoïque supérieur et du Trias inférieur, en particulier le Permien supérieur marin (Dorashamien), une occurrence isolée, (les mêmes couches avec des faunes comparables ont d'abord été trouvées 2000 km. plus à l'Est près de Dzhulfa), et 2. - l'interruption de la sédimentation dans le groupe des phyllades à la fin du Trias supérieur. Ces nouveaux résultats sont également une contribution à la question du processus géodynamique qui a produit le métamorphisme HP/BT du groupe des phyllades.
    Notes: Zusammenfassung Eine große Zahl neuer Fossilfunde — vor allem Conodonten und Ostrakoden — in der Hochdruck/Tieftemperatur metamorphen Phyllit-Gruppe Westkretas geben Auskunft über den stratigraphischen Umfang dieser Schichtenfolge und Hinweise auf ihre paläogeographische und tektonische Entwicklung. Für den Zeitraum vom Oberkarbon bis zum Ende der Untertrias müssen — mit einigen Unterbrechungen — aufgrund der zahlreichen Conodontenfunde vollmarine Bedingungen in diesem Sedimentationsraum angenommen werden. Der überwiegende Teil der Mitteltrias konnte bisher nicht durch Fossilien nachgewiesen werden. Die höhere Trias zeigt im unteren Abschnitt der Phyllit-Einheit eine Ostrakoden- und Bivalven-reiche Flachwasserfazies sowie an der Grenze Trias/Lias eine Salinarfazies, im oberen Abschnitt eine Conodonten- und Foraminiferen-führende Litoralfazies. Für den unteren Teil der Phyllit-Einheit zeigen die vorliegenden biostratigraphischen Daten eine inverse, für den oberen Teil eine normale Lagerung an. In Analogie zur isoklinalen Verfaltung der Phyllit-Gruppe im Aufschlußbereich wird angenommen, daß die Phyllit-Einheit als Ganzes eine große liegende Isoklinalfalte ist. Dabei kann die karbonatische Trypali-Gruppe entweder als Teil des überkippten Schenkels dieser Großisoklinalstruktur oder als Teil der Talea Ori-Gruppe gedeutet werden. Eine eigenständige Einheit ist sie aber wohl nicht. Für paläogeographische und geodynamische Rekonstruktionen sind vor allem zwei Befunde wichtig: 1. die marine Sedimentation im Jungpaläozoikum und der Untertrias, insbesondere das marine Oberperm (Dorashamian), ein isoliertes Vorkommen (gleiche Schichten mit vergleichbaren Faunen sind erst 2000 km weiter östlich bei Dzhulfa gefunden worden) und 2. das Abbrechen der Sedimentation in der Phyllit-Gruppe am Ende der Obertrias. Die neuen Befunde sind auch ein Beitrag zur Beantwortung der Frage nach dem geodynamischen Prozeß, der zur Hochdruck/Tieftemperatur-Metamorphose der Phyllit-Gruppe geführt hat.

    Notes: Abstract The Wrangell volcanic field covers more than 10 000 km2 in southern Alaska and extends uninterrupted into northwest. Yukon Territory. Lavas in the field exhibit medium-K, calc-alkaline affinities, typical of continental volcanic arcs along convergent plate margins. Eleven major eruptive centers are recognized in the Alaskan part of the field. More than 90 K-Ar age determinations in the field show a northwesterly progression of eruptive activity from 26 Ma, near the Alaska-Yukon border, to about 0.2 Ma at the northwest end of the field. A few age determinations in the southeast extension of the field in Yukon Territory, Canada, range from 11 to 25 Ma. The ages indicate that the progression of volcanism in the Alaska part of the field increased from about 0.8 km/Ma, at 25 Ma, to more than 20 km/MA during the past 2 Ma. The progression of volcanic activity and its increased rate of migration with time is attributed to changes in the rate and angle of Pacific plate convergence and the progressive decoupling of the Yakutat terrane from North America. Subduction of Yakutat terrane-Pacific plate and Wrangell volcanic activity ceased about 200 000 years age when Pacific plate motion was taken up by strike-slip faulting and thrusting.

    Notes: Summary Sulfur (S) cycling in a chestnut oak forest on Walker Branch Watershed, Tennessee, was dominated by geochemical processes involving sulfate. Even though available SO 4 2- was present far in excess of forest nutritional requirements, the ecosystem as a whole accumulated ∼60% of incoming SO4−S. Most (90%) of this accumulation occurred by SO 4 2- adsorption in sesquioxide-rich subsurface soils, with a relatively minor amount accumulating and cycling as SO 4 2- within vegetative components. Organic sulfates are thought to constitute a large proportion of total S in surface soils, also, and to provide a pool of readily mineralized available S within the ecosystem.

    Notes: Abstract The total dissolved load of the Rhine river increases downstream due to the combined impact of natural and pollution loads. The natural background, controlled by geology, is soon swamped by pollution, particularly from salt and coal mining activities in Alsace and the Ruhr area. The Rhine is also a net source of CO2 from oxidation of excess organic productivity that is fuelled by nutrient pollution, a problem even more serious for some of its tributaries.
