Creator:: Guerrero, Eduardo Francisco
Abstract:: Numerous investigations demonstrate that mantle convective processes such as upwelling affect the surface topography of the overriding plate. The surface expression of mantle flow has been coined ‘transient topography’. Transient topography in the North American plate is thought to result from a mantle thermal anomaly beneath the Yellowstone volcanic center,...

Creator:: Lamont, Ellen A.
Abstract:: The word orogenesis is derived from the Greek words oros meaning mountains and genesis meaning creation and refers to the study of the complex processes involved in the growth and evolution of mountain ranges (orogens). Orogens develop where crustal deformation builds topography and forms landscapes. This dissertation explores the role...
