  • The marine geomorphology of American Samoa : shapes and distributions of deep sea volcanics

    Creator:
    Roberts, Jed T.
    Abstract:
    The geologic processes at work in American Samoa have long been a point of scientific debate. Of its numerous volcanic formations, few breach sea level, leaving an enormous proportion of their mass unavailable to traditional observation. This study aims to describe the deep sea geomorphology of American Samoa through compilation,...

  • Dynamics of the Laurentide Ice Sheet

    Creator:
    Carlson, Anders Eskil
    Abstract:
    This dissertation concentrates on the controlling factors on the instability of the Laurentide Ice Sheet (LIS) and their effects on abrupt climate change. Northern Hemisphere climate fluctuated abruptly during the last deglaciation possibly related to variability in Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) and reduced aerial extent of the LIS. Reductions...

  • Seismotectonics of the Himalayas and the Tibetan Plateau : moment tensoranalysis of regional seismograms

    Creator:
    Baur, Jan R.
    Abstract:
    This thesis presents a detailed seismotectonic investigation of the Himalayan region and the Tibetan plateau as part of project HiCLIMB to explore the state of stress and the kinematics of the world’s largest continental collision zone. Using full regional waveforms for moment tensor inversion, source parameters for 107 earthquakes were...

  • If you build it, will they come? Evolution towards the application of multi-dimensional GIS to fisheries-oceanography

    Creator:
    Vance, Tiffany C.
    Abstract:
    The development of new technologies in science is a balance between existence and use. There are three versions of this duality – something is built and users come, something is built and users don’t come, and, finally, potential users show up but the ballpark has not yet been built. In...

  • Patterns and processes of sediment transport following sediment-filled dam removal in gravel bed rivers

    Creator:
    Stewart, Gregory B.
    Abstract:
    Dam removal is increasingly viewed as a river restoration tool because dams affect so many aspects of river hydrology, geomorphology, and ecology; but removal also has impacts. When a dam is removed, sediment accumulated over a dam’s lifetime may be transported downstream; and the timing, fate and consequences of this...
