Trabajos de Geología, Universidad de Oviedo, 29 : 278-283 (2010) From ductile to brittle deformation – the structural development and strain variations along a crustal-scale shear zone in SW Finland T. TORVELA1* AND C. EHLERS1 1Åbo Akademi University, Department of geology and mineralogy, Tuomiokirkontori 1, 20500 Turku, Finland. *e-mail: [email protected] Abstract: This study demonstrates the impact of variations in overall crustal rheology on crustal strength in relatively high P-T conditions at mid- to lower mid-crustal levels. In a crustal-scale shear zone, along-strike variations in the rheological competence result in large-scale deformation partition- ing and differences in the deformation style and strain distribution. Keywords: shear zone, deformation, strain partitioning, terrane boundary, Finland, Palaeoproterozoic. The structural behaviour of the crustal-scale Sottunga- several orogenic periods from the Archaean to the Jurmo shear zone (SJSZ) in SW Finland is described.

Bull. 413. 93-99. A revised terrane map is presented for the Scandinavian Caledcnldes. and an outline is given of the principal suspect and exot ic terranes and terrane-complexe s identified outboa rd from the Baltoscand ian miogeocline. The outermost part of the Baltoscandian continental margin is itself suspect , in the terrane sense. since the true palaeogeographical location s of rocks now represented in the Seve and serey-seuano Nappes, while inferred, are not known. The orogen -internal exotic terranes embrace the oceanic/eugeoclinal elements of the Caledonides, represented by the mag matosed imentary assemblages of the Koli Nappes, including ophiolite fragments and island arc products. Even more exot ic terranes occur in the highest parts of the tectonostratigraphy, inclu ding units which are thought possibly to derive from the Laurentian side of lapetus . D. Roberts.

In 1998 EEA published Guidelines for the implementation of the EUROWATERNET monitoring network for inland waters. In every Member Country a monitoring network should be designed according to these Guidelines and put into operation. Together these national networks will form the EUROWATERNET monitoring network that will provide information on the quantity and quality of European inland waters. In the future they will be developed to meet the requirements of the EU Water Framework Directive. This publication presents the Finnish EUROWATERNET monitoring network put into operation from the first of January, 2000. It includes a total of 195 river sites, 253 lake sites and 74 hydrological baseline sites. Groundwater monitoring network will be developed later. In addition, information about Finnish water resources and current monitoring strategies is given.

The Mora- vo–Moldanubian Phase involved the overthrusting of the Moldanubian over the Moravian Zone, a process which may have followed the subduction of an intervening oceanic domain (a part of the Rheiic Ocean) beneath a Moldanubian (Armorican) active continental margin. The Moravo–Moldanubian Phase also involved the exhumation of the HP–HT rocks of the Gföhl Unit into the Moldanubian middle crust, represented by the Monotonous and Variegated series. The tectonic emplacement of the HP–HT rocks was accompanied by intrusions of distinct magnesio-potassic granitoid melts (the 335–338 Ma old Durbachite plutons), which contain components from a strongly enriched lithospheric mantle source. Two parallel belts of HP–HT rocks associated with Durbachite intrusions can be distinguished, a western one at the Teplá–Barrandian and an eastern one close to the Moravian boundary. -

During the course of this study, I had the opportunity to witness the beautiful scenery and outstanding geology of Greenland firsthand during a one-month fieldtrip to the area around Tasiilaq in June and August of 2014, for which I greatly appreciate funding by the Geological Survey of Denmark and Greenland (GEUS) and the Ministry of Mineral Resources of Greenland (MMR). Regular funding was provided by the Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft from 2013 to 2016, with additional funding until late 2017 by employment at the Institute of Applied Mineralogy and Economic Geology at RWTH Aachen. At first, I want to thank my supervisor Annika Dziggel for her great support and guidance, but also for initiating this interesting project in the first place. Thank you for your support during fieldwork, for encouraging me to keep a sharp mind during analysis and interpretation and for teaching me how to properly present my data. Many thanks also go out to my Co-Supervisor Sven Sindern for his support during the countless hours I spent in the laboratory, as well as with the whole-rock data and isotopic dating. -
Association Between Environmental Stress and Epidermal Papillomatosis of Roach Rutilus Rutilus

Populations impacted by industrial and/or sewage effluents were compared to reference populations from pristine sites. We examined both the prevalence (proportion of diseased fish) and intensity (number of scales covered by tumors) of the disease. Results of Generalized Linear Mixed Models (GLMM) indicated that the risk of papillomatosis was 7.5 times higher in males than females, and increased 1.3 times for every 10 mm increment in fish length. We controlled for the possible effects of fish size, sex and temporal variation through sampling procedures and statistical analyses. Mean prevalence of epidermal papil- lomatosis was 16.6 and 5.8% in impact and reference populations, respectively (10 population pairs; nfish = 1714). Results of GLMM suggested that the risk of being diseased was 2.7 times higher in the impact than reference populations. Thus, the prevalence of epidermal papillomatosis in roach can be used as an indicator of environmental stress. -
The Geology of England – Critical Examples of Earth History – an Overview
The Geology of England – critical examples of Earth history – an overview Mark A. Woods*, Jonathan R. Lee British Geological Survey, Environmental Science Centre, Keyworth, Nottingham, NG12 5GG *Corresponding Author: Mark A. Woods, email: [email protected] Abstract Over the past one billion years, England has experienced a remarkable geological journey. At times it has formed part of ancient volcanic island arcs, mountain ranges and arid deserts; lain beneath deep oceans, shallow tropical seas, extensive coal swamps and vast ice sheets; been inhabited by the earliest complex life forms, dinosaurs, and finally, witnessed the evolution of humans to a level where they now utilise and change the natural environment to meet their societal and economic needs. Evidence of this journey is recorded in the landscape and the rocks and sediments beneath our feet, and this article provides an overview of these events and the themed contributions to this Special Issue of Proceedings of the Geologists’ Association, which focuses on ‘The Geology of England – critical examples of Earth History’. Rather than being a stratigraphic account of English geology, this paper and the Special Issue attempts to place the Geology of England within the broader context of key ‘shifts’ and ‘tipping points’ that have occurred during Earth History. 1. Introduction England, together with the wider British Isles, is blessed with huge diversity of geology, reflected by the variety of natural landscapes and abundant geological resources that have underpinned economic growth during and since the Industrial Revolution. Industrialisation provided a practical impetus for better understanding the nature and pattern of the geological record, reflected by the publication in 1815 of the first geological map of Britain by William Smith (Winchester, 2001), and in 1835 by the founding of a national geological survey. -
Tornado Climatology of Finland
1446 MONTHLY WEATHER REVIEW VOLUME 140 Tornado Climatology of Finland JENNI RAUHALA Finnish Meteorological Institute, Helsinki, Finland HAROLD E. BROOKS NOAA/National Severe Storms Laboratory, Norman, Oklahoma DAVID M. SCHULTZ Centre for Atmospheric Science, School for Earth, Atmospheric and Environmental Sciences, University of Manchester, Manchester, United Kingdom, and Division of Atmospheric Science, Department of Physics, University of Helsinki, and Finnish Meteorological Institute, Helsinki, Finland (Manuscript received 31 July 2011, in final form 8 November 2011) ABSTRACT A tornado climatology for Finland is constructed from 1796 to 2007. The climatology consists of two datasets. A historical dataset (1796–1996) is largely constructed from newspaper archives and other historical archives and datasets, and a recent dataset (1997–2007) is largely constructed from eyewitness accounts sent to the Finnish Meteorological Institute and news reports. This article describes the process of collecting and evaluating possible tornado reports. Altogether, 298 Finnish tornado cases compose the climatology: 129 from the historical dataset and 169 from the recent dataset. An annual average of 14 tornado cases occur in Finland (1997–2007). A case with a significant tornado (F2 or stronger) occurs in our database on average every other year, composing 14% of all tornado cases. All documented tornadoes in Finland have occurred between April and November. As in the neighboring countries in northern Europe, July and August are the months with the maximum frequency of tornado cases, coincident with the highest lightning occurrence both over land and sea. Waterspouts tend to be favored later in the summer, peaking in August. The peak month for significant tornadoes is August. -

Pre-Mesozoic Geology of Saxo-Thuringia from the Cadomian Active Margin to the Variscan Orogen
GEOLOGICA CARPATHICA, FEBRUARY 2011, 62, 1, 42 BOOK REVIEW Pre-Mesozoic Geology of Saxo-Thuringia From the Cadomian Active Margin to the Variscan Orogen Editors: ULF LINNEMANN & ROLF L. ROMER 26–28 April 2010 2010. Schweizerbart Science Publishers, Stuttgart. 488 pages, 190 figures, 6 tables, 1 Sheet Map, 1 DVD, 1 foldout, 25x 17 cm, 1400 g. Language: English ISBN 978-3-510-65259-4, bound, price: 84.90 EUR The monographic work is a summary of results of a wider team of authors, who have contributed to the five dominant Parts, each of which consists of several Chapters focused on individual problems of the Saxo-Thuringian Region, its geological structure and its development in time and space. It is a classical analysis of the development of the Pre-Mesozoic stage from the Cadomian Active Margin to the Variscan Orogene. Saxo-Thuringia represents a very important region displaying development of the Variscides in one part of the Pangea supercontinent. The first chapter of the first part (Introduction) of the book is absolutely devoted to the location of this region of Saxo-Thuringia in the context of the Pangea supercontinent, followed by detailed recapitulation of the geological maps and results from geological mapping in historical survey from oldest documents to almost present- day works, which are well preserved and represent for the reader the classical and modern shool of regional geology of this region. The third chapter of this part completely untraditionally, but in a very interesting way shows the region of Saxo- Thuringia from the point of view of geochemical potential. -
