Revisiting Lōʻihi: Geochemistry of Kamaʻehuakanaloa Lavas Reveals Complexities in the Pre-Shield to Shield Transition and Hawaiian Mantle Plume Source

Creator:: Truong, Thi B.
Abstract:: Studies of Hawaiian volcanoes contribute valuable insights about Earth processes and mantle evolution, and are fundamental for understanding the construction of the largest volcanoes on terrestrial planets. The pre-shield stage exists in every Hawaiian volcano, but is usually blanketed by high volume tholeiitic lava flows during the main shield stage....

Automated web-based analysis and visualization of spatiotemporal data

Creator:: Keon, Dylan B.
Abstract:: Most data are associated with a place, and many are also associated with a moment in time, a time interval, or another linked temporal component. Spatiotemporal data (i.e., data with elements of both space and time) can be used to assess movement or change over time in a particular location,...

Advancements in the Monitoring of Forests and Quantification of Live Aboveground Biomass Using Moderate Resolution Spaceborne Multispectral Imagery and Synthetic Aperture Radar Data

Creator:: Kilbride, John B.
Abstract:: The objective of this dissertation is to enhance the monitoring of forest ecosystems through the utilization of remotely sensed data to address the exigencies posed by the Anthropocene. On a global scale, rising temperatures and fluctuating precipitation patterns have strained forests and produced shifts in natural disturbance regimes. Additionally, the...

Petrogenesis of the Steens Basalt : Variation in Source Contributions and Effects of Crustal Passage During the Onset of Columbia River Flood Basalt Volcanism

Creator:: Moore, Nicole E.
Abstract:: Continental flood basalts represent short-lived but immense blasts of mafic magma to the continental crust. The youngest and smallest continental flood basalt worldwide, the Columbia River Basalt, initiated with the eruption of the most mafic member, the Steens Basalt (~16.9 Ma). The Steens Basalt is exposed in southeast Oregon, southwest...

New Insights into Mantle Dynamics from Helium Isotopes and Argon Geochronology

Creator:: Konrad, Kevin
Abstract:: Earth’s mantle extends to nearly 3000 km depth, comprises >80 % of Earth’s total volume, and has the largest influence on the primordial and radiogenic heat budget. Despite its importance, the structure and composition of the mantle is still debated. There are three primary models for Earth’s mantle structure that...

The Geology and Geochemistry of the Haquira East Porphyry Copper Deposit of Southern Peru : Insights on the Timing, Temperature and Lifespan of the Magmatic-hydrothermal Alteration and Mineralization

Creator:: Cernuschi Rodilosso, Federico
Abstract:: This dissertation is informally divided into three major sections. In the first section (Chapter 2) I use data from field mapping, isotopic geochronology, whole rock geochemistry and trace element concentrations in zircons to examine the petrology, geochemistry and ages of the Haquira East porphyry copper deposit of southern Peru. In...

Quantifying Sensitivity and Adaptive Capacity of Shellfish in the Northern California Current Ecosystem to Increasing Prevalence of Ocean Acidification and Hypoxia

Creator:: Gossner, Hannah M.
Abstract:: The severity of carbonate chemistry changes from ocean acidification is predicted to increase greatly in the coming decades, with serious consequences for marine species- especially those reliant on calcium carbonate for structure and function (Fabry et al. 2008). The Northern California Current Ecosystem off the coast of US West Coast...

An Evaluation of the Complex Age Progression along the Cook-Austral Islands Using High-resolution ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar Incremental Heating Ages

Creator:: Rose, Joanna
Abstract:: The Cook-Austral island chain has been the center of debate for many years. Contrary to the classical hotspot hypothesis, this volcanic island chain does not exhibit a linear age progression with a single node of active volcanism, but instead shows evidence of young volcanism at several points along the chain....

A petrogenetic model for the Caribbean large igneous province

Creator:: Krawl, Kyle A.
Abstract:: The Caribbean Plateau is an oceanic large igneous province (CLIP). A widely accepted model for LIP petrogenesis proposes that these large bodies of igneous rock are formed by decompression melting associated with upwelling mantle plume heads during the initiation of hotspot activity. According to this classical model, petrogenesis occurs over...

Kinematics of the Columbia Hills Anticline and the Warwick Strike-Slip Fault, Yakima Fold and Thrust Belt, Washington, USA

Creator:: Woodring, Danielle N.
Abstract:: Discrete fault systems accommodate both N-S contraction and dextral shear in concert with clockwise rotational deformation of the North American plate above the Cascadia Subduction Zone. In Washington, the Yakima Fold and Thrust Belt (YFTB) accommodates N-S contraction as a series of ENE-WSW trending thrust faults and folds. NW-striking, predominantly...
