I. Direction of maximum horizontal compression in western Oregon determined by borehole breakouts. II. Structure and tectonics of the northern Willamette Valley, Oregon

Creator:: Werner, Kenneth Stefan
Abstract:: Elliptical borehole enlargements or "breakouts" caused by systematic spalling of a borehole wall due to regional maximum horizontal stresses were identified in 18 wells drilled in the Coast Range and Willamette Valley of western Oregon. The breakouts generally indicate a NNW to NNE orientation of maximum horizontal compression (oH[subscript max])...

Stratigraphic and structural framework of Himalayan foothills, northern Pakistan

Creator:: Pogue, Kevin R.
Abstract:: The oldest sedimentary and metasedimentary rocks exposed in the Himalayan foothills of Pakistan record a gradual transition seaward from the evaporites of the Salt Range Formation to pelitic sediments deposited in deeper water to the north. The Upper Proterozoic Tanawal Formation was derived from erosion of a northern highland produced...

Lower and Middle Devonian carbonate-platform and outer-shelf-basin deposits flanking Railroad Valley, Nevada

Creator:: Nelson, Storr L.
Abstract:: Lower and Middle Devonian strata crop out on the former stable carbonate platform that existed in the Quinn Canyon Range, through the carbonate shelf edge in the Pancake Range, to the carbonate slope and outer-shelf basin in the Reveille Range. The strata of the Reveille Range record a transition from...

P and S velocity structure beneath the Gulf of Maine

Creator:: Sattel, Daniel
Abstract:: Seismic refraction data collected in 1985 by the USGS were used in this study to derive the P and S velocity structure of the crust beneath the Gulf of Maine. The data quality differs among instruments and is affected by surficial lateral heterogeneities, a ringy source signature and reverberations. Velocity...

The oligocene and miocene geology of the Tillamook embayment Tillamook County, northwest Oregon

Creator:: Parker, Michael J. (Michael John), 1958-
Abstract:: Eleven sedimentary and volcanic rock units are mapped and described in the thesis area, and chronicle the dynamic geologic history of the Tillamook embayment from the Oligocene through the middle Mlocene. The oldest unit is the Zemorrian to early Saucesian Smuggler Cove formation, a bathyal tuffaceous mudstone with some thin-...

Subsurface Quaternary and Pliocene structures of the northern Los Angeles Basin, California

Creator:: Hummon, Cheryl
Abstract:: The northern Los Angeles basin is influenced by two structural styles: the west-trending compressional Transverse Ranges to the north, and the strike-slip Peninsular Ranges to the south. The interaction of these two structural styles has resulted in a complex fold fault belt at the northern margin of the Los Angeles...
Resource Type:: Masters Thesis

Pre-pliocene structural geology and structural evolution of the northern Los Angeles Basin, southern California

Creator:: Schneider, Craig L.
Abstract:: Detailed subsurface structure contour maps and cross sections have shown the northern Los Angeles basin to be underlain by a south facing monocline that is complicated by secondary faults and folds. The monocline forms a structural shelf that marks the northern boundary of the Los Angeles central trough. The monocline...

Sequence stratigraphy and lithofacies of the middle Eocene upper McIntosh and Cowlitz Formations, geology of the Grays River Volcanics, Castle Rock - Germany Creek area, southwest Washington

Creator:: Kleibacker, Derik W.
Abstract:: A composite 732-rn thick section in Germany Creek of middle Eocene upper McIntosh and lower Cowlitz Formations, as well as the lower Grays River Volcanics, was studied using bio-, magneto- and lithostratigraphy to construct a sequence stratigraphic framework and assess hydrocarbon exploration potential. The upper McIntosh Formation forms a complete...
