  abstract  = {During the second phase of the Alpine Fault, Deep Fault Drilling Project (DFDP) in the Whataroa River, South Westland, New Zealand, bedrock was encountered in the DFDP-2B borehole from 238.5-893.2 m Measured Depth (MD). Continuous sampling and meso- to microscale characterisation of whole rock cuttings established that, in sequence, the borehole sampled amphibolite facies, Torlesse Composite Terrane-derived schists, protomylonites and mylonites, terminating 200-400 m above an Alpine Fault Principal Slip Zone (PSZ) with a maximum dip of 62°. The most diagnostic structural features of increasing PSZ proximity were the occurrence of shear bands and reduction in mean quartz grain sizes. A change in composition to greater mica:quartz + feldspar, most markedly below c. 700 m MD, is inferred to result from either heterogeneous sampling or a change in lithology related to alteration. Major oxide variations suggest the fault-proximal Alpine Fault alteration zone, as previously defined in DFDP-1 core, was not sampled.},

  abstract  = {The mechanical behavior of the sandy facies of Opalinus Clay (OPA) was investigated in 42 triaxial tests performed on dry samples at unconsolidated, undrained conditions at confining pressures (p(c)) of 50-100 MPa, temperatures (T) between 25 and 200 degrees C and strain rates (epsilon) (over dot ) of 1 x-10(-3)-5 x-10(-6) -s(-1). Using a Paterson-type deformation apparatus, samples oriented at 0 degrees, 45 degrees and 90 degrees to bedding were deformed up to about 15\% axial strain. Additionally, the influence of water content, drainage condition and pre-consolidation was investigated at fixed p(c)-T conditions, using dry and re-saturated samples. Deformed samples display brittle to semi-brittle deformation behavior, characterized by cataclastic flow in quartz-rich sandy layers and granular flow in phyllosilicate-rich layers. Samples loaded parallel to bedding are less compliant compared to the other loading directions. With the exception of samples deformed 45 degrees and 90 degrees to bedding at p(c) = 100 MPa, strain is localized in discrete shear zones. Compressive strength (sigma(max)) increases with increasing pc, resulting in an internal friction coefficient of approximate to 0.31 for samples deformed at 45 degrees and 90 degrees to bedding, and approximate to 0.44 for samples deformed parallel to bedding. In contrast, pre-consolidation, drainage condition, T and epsilon(over dot )do not significantly affect deformation behavior of dried samples. However, sigma(max) and Young's modulus (E) decrease substantially with increasing water saturation. Compared to the clay-rich shaly facies of OPA, sandy facies specimens display higher strength sigma(max) and Young's modulus E at similar deformation conditions. Strength and Young's modulus of samples deformed 90 degrees and 45 degrees to bedding are close to the iso-stress Reuss bound, suggesting a strong influence of weak clay-rich layers on the deformation behavior.},

  abstract  = {The Alpine Fault is capable of generating large (MW > 8) earthquakes and is the main geohazard on South Island, NZ, and late in its 250-291-year seismic cycle. To minimize its hazard potential, it is indispensable to identify and understand the processes influencing the geomechanical behavior and strength-evolution of the fault. High-resolution microstructural, mineralogical and geochemical analyses of the Alpine Fault's core demonstrate wall rock fragmentation, assisted by mineral dissolution, and cementation resulting in the formation of a fine-grained principal slip zone (PSZ). A complex network of anastomosing and mutually cross-cutting calcite veins implies that faulting occurred during episodes of dilation, slip and sealing. Fluid-assisted dilatancy leads to a significant volume increase accommodated by vein formation in the fault core. Undeformed euhedral chlorite crystals and calcite veins that have cut footwall gravels demonstrate that these processes occurred very close to the Earth's surface. Microstructural evidence indicates that cataclastic processes dominate the deformation and we suggest that powder lubrication and grain rolling, particularly influenced by abundant nanoparticles, play a key role in the fault core's velocity-weakening behavior rather than frictional sliding. This is further supported by the absence of smectite, which is reasonable given recently measured geothermal gradients of more than 120 °C km-1 and the impermeable nature of the PSZ, which both limit the growth of this phase and restrict its stability to shallow depths. Our observations demonstrate that high-temperature fluids can influence authigenic mineral formation and thus control the fault's geomechanical behavior and the cyclic evolution of its strength.},

Kernproben (core) und Bohrklein (cuttings) aus vier verschiedenen Bohrprojekten an der San Andreas St{\"o}rung (USA), der Nankai Trough Subduktionszone und der Japan Trench Subduktionszone (Japan), sowie der Alpine St{\"o}rung in Neuseeland wurden untersucht. Die von ICDP (International Continental Scientific Drilling Program) und IODP (International Ocean Discovery Program) unterst{\"u}tzten Projekte verfolgen alle das Ziel, das Verhalten von Erdbeben besser zu verstehen. In Kapitel 1 werden in einer kurzen Einleitung die allgemeinen thematischen Grundlagen und Ziele der Arbeit beschrieben. Kapitel 2 umfasst den Stand der Forschung, eine kurze Beschreibung der einzelnen Bohrprojekte und Standorte, sowie eine Zusammenfassung der wichtigsten Messmethoden. Kapitel 3 beinhaltet insgesamt zehn wissenschaftliche Arbeiten, die alle in einem methodisch-thematischen Zusammenhang stehen. Die Manuskripte wurden in den Jahren 2006-2015 ver{\"o}ffentlicht, wobei weitere Arbeiten aus diesem Themenbereich im Literaturverzeichnis vermerkt sind. Sie gehen auf unterschiedliche Fragestellungen um die Bildung und das Verhalten von Tonmineralen in aktiven St{\"o}rungszonen ein. Insgesamt sechs Publikationen beinhalten Daten und Forschungsergebnisse, die im Rahmen des SAFOD Projektes, USA (San Andreas Fault Observatory at Depth) erstellt wurden. Hier wurde vor allem auf die Fluid-Gesteins-Wechselwirkungsprozesse im St{\"o}rungsgestein und die daraus resultierende Bildung von Tonmineralen eingegangen. Drei weitere Arbeiten wurden im Rahmen des NanTroSEIZE Projektes, Japan (Nankai Trough Seismogenic Zone Experiment) und des JFAST Projektes, Japan (Japan Trench Fast Drilling Project) erstellt. Hier steht vor allem das Verhalten von quellf{\"a}higen Tonmineralen auf sich {\"a}ndernde Umgebungsbedingungen (z.B. Temperatur und Feuchtigkeit) im Mittelpunkt. Die zehnte hier vorgestellte Ver{\"o}ffentlichung betrifft Analysen rund um das DFDP Projekt (Deep Fault Drilling Project) in Neuseeland, wobei hier die Deformation von Tonmineralen und das hydro-mechanische Verhalten der St{\"o}rungszone im Vordergrund stehen.

This paper tests different parametrizations of the 1.75 μm gypsum feature for the determination of gypsum abundances, from the laboratory to remote sensing applications of recent as well as upcoming hyperspectral sensors. In particular, this study focuses on remote sensing imagery over the large body of the Omongwa pan located in the Namibian Kalahari. Four common absorption feature parameters are compared: band ratio through the introduction of the Normalized Differenced Gypsum Index (NDGI), the shape-based parameters Slope, and Half-Area, and the Continuum Removed Absorption Depth (CRAD). On laboratory soil samples from the pan, CRAD and NDGI approaches perform best to determine gypsum content tested in cross validated regression models with XRD mineralogical data (R² = 0.84 for NDGI and R² = 0.86 for CRAD). Subsequently the laboratory prediction functions are transferred to remote sensing imagery of spaceborne Hyperion, airborne HySpex and simulated spaceborne EnMAP sensor. Variable results were obtained depending on sensor characteristics, data quality, preprocessing and spectral parameters. Overall, the CRAD parameter in this wavelength region proved not to be robust for remote sensing applications, and the simple band ratio based parameter, the NDGI, proved robust and is recommended for future use for the determination of gypsum content in bare soils based on remote sensing hyperspectral imagery.},

  abstract  = {White mica and tourmaline are the dominant hydrothermal alteration minerals at the world-class Panasqueira W-Sn-Cu deposit in Portugal. Thus, understanding the controls on their chemical composition helps to constrain ore formation processes at this deposit and determine their usefulness as pathfinder minerals for mineralization in general. We combine whole-rock geochemistry of altered and unaltered metasedimentary host rocks with in situ LA-ICP-MS measurements of tourmaline and white mica from the alteration halo. Principal component analysis (PCA) is used to better identify geochemical patterns and trends of hydrothermal alteration in the datasets. The hydrothermally altered metasediments are enriched in As, Sn, Cs, Li, W, F, Cu, Rb, Zn, Tl, and Pb relative to unaltered samples. In situ mineral analyses show that most of these elements preferentially partition into white mica over tourmaline (Li, Rb, Cs, Tl, W, and Sn), whereas Zn is enriched in tourmaline. White mica has distinct compositions in different settings within the deposit (greisen, vein selvages, wall rock alteration zone, late fault zone), indicating a compositional evolution with time. In contrast, tourmaline from different settings overlaps in composition, which is ascribed to a stronger dependence on host rock composition and also to the effects of chemical zoning and microinclusions affecting the LA-ICP-MS analyses. Hence, in this deposit, white mica is the better recorder of the fluid composition. The calculated trace-element contents of the Panasqueira mineralizing fluid based on the mica data and estimates of mica-fluid partition coefficients are in good agreement with previous fluid-inclusion analyses. A compilation of mica and tourmaline trace-element compositions from Panasqueira and other W-Sn deposits shows that white mica has good potential as a pathfinder mineral, with characteristically high Li, Cs, Rb, Sn, and W contents. The trace-element contents of hydrothermal tourmaline are more variable. Nevertheless, the compiled data suggest that high Sn and Li contents are distinctive for tourmaline from W-Sn deposits.},
