Structure and seismic hazards of the offshore Cascadia forearc and evolution of the Neogene forearc basin

Creator:: McNeill, Lisa C.
Abstract:: The Cascadia subduction zone has been characterized as a typical Chilean-type subduction zone based on qualitative comparisons of plate age and convergence rate, with simple forearc structure. However, the discovery of unusual structural styles of deformation, variations in the morphology of the forearc, and its absence of seismic activity suggest...

Changes in gravity anomalies during erosion and isostatic rebound of collisional mountain ranges

Creator:: Enos, Robert A.
Abstract:: At collisional mountain ranges the tectonic history of crustal shortening and subsequent post-collisional erosion is preserved in the form of the presently observed gravity anomalies. In this study, models of erosion and isostatic rebound at various stages of collision illustrate the evolution of crustal structure, topography, and resulting gravity anomalies....

Thin-skinned tectonics on continent/ocean transitional crust, Sulaiman Range, Pakistan

Creator:: Jadoon, Ishtiaq Ahmad Khan
Abstract:: Surface and subsurface data from the Sulaiman thrust belt show that nearly all the 10 km thick sequence of dominantly platform (>7 km) and molasse strata is detached at the deformation front. These strata thicken tectonically to a minimum of 20 km in the hinterland of the Sulaiman fold belt...

Ecosystem Processes and Human Influences Regulate Streamflow Response to Climate Change at Long-Term Ecological Research Sites

Creator:: Jones, Julia A., Creed, Irena F., Hatcher, Kendra L., Warren, Robert J., Adams, Mary Beth, Benson, Melinda H., Boose, Emery, Brown, Warren A., Campbell, John L., Covich, Alan, Clow, David W., Dahm, Clifford N., Elder, Kelly, Ford, Chelcy R., Grimm, Nancy B., Henshaw, Donald L., Larson, Kelli L., Miles, Evan S., Miles, Kathleen M., Sebestyen, Stephen D., Spargo, Adam T., Stone, Asa B., Vose, James M., and Williams, Mark W.
Abstract:: Analyses of long-term records at 35 headwater basins in the United States and Canada indicate that climate change effects on streamflow are not as clear as might be expected, perhaps because of ecosystem processes and human influences. Evapotranspiration was higher than was predicted by temperature in water-surplus ecosystems and lower...

Integrating GIS and community mapping into secondary science education:a web GIS approach

Creator:: O'Dea, Elizabeth K.
Abstract:: Geographic information systems (GISs) offer a useful tool for educators to teach students about local and global communities in various subjects. GISs are increasingly being used in K-12 education, but that growth is hindered due to many teachers’ limited access to time or resources necessary to adequately learn a GIS...

Using educational tools and integrative experiences via geovisualizations that incorporate spatial thinking, real world science and ocean literacy standards in the classroom : a case study examined

Creator:: Kinzel, Michelle Rene
Abstract:: The field of geography has been transformed in recent years through the use of spatial tools such as geographic information systems (GIS) satellite and acoustic remote sensing, the global positioning system (GPS), Internet mapping and more. Studying geography and earth science in the digital age now requires a sophisticated and...

Multiple mantle plume components involved in the petrogenesis of subduction-related lavas from the northern termination of the Tonga Arc and northern Lau Basin: Evidence from the geochemistry of arc and backarc submarine volcanics

Creator:: Falloon, Trevor J., Danyushevsky, Leonid V., Crawford, Tony J., Maas, Roland, Woodhead, Jon D., Eggins, Stephen M., Bloomer, Sherman H., Wright, Dawn J., Zlobin, Sergei K., and Stacey, Andrew R.
Abstract:: New seafloor mapping and sampling demonstrates that the eruption of the high-Ca boninites is clearly associated with rifting of the northern Tonga ridge and the northern Lau Basin at the northern termination of the Tonga Trench. There is very strong evidence for OIB plume related mantle sources involved in the...
