Spatial and Temporal Landscape Responses to Progressive Tectonic Forcing along California Fault Systems

Creator:: Manopkawee, Pichawut
Abstract:: Understanding the degree to which topography of erosional landscapes in active mountain belts encode the rates and patterns of active deformation in the upper crust is a primary goal in the field of tectonic geomorphology. In particular, the convolved influence of variations in rock mass quality and the erodibility of...

Heat Flow along the Southern Costa Rica Margin : Insights on the Updip Limit of Seismicity

Creator:: Hass, Bridget M.
Abstract:: Heat flow analysis of the Costa Rica convergent margin is carried out for seven core sites drilled during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expeditions 334 and 344 as part of the Costa Rica Seismogenesis Project (CRISP). These expeditions were designed to develop a better understanding of erosional subduction zones. Heat...

Heat flow results from plate boundary observatory boreholes in California

Creator:: McDonald, Kyle Joseph
Abstract:: An integral component to understanding lithospheric rheology, fault mechanics, and geodynamic processes is knowledge of the subsurface thermal regime. This study presents thermal data from 26 new borehole sites drilled during the installation of borehole strain meters as part of the Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO). These data extends existing coverage...

Late Cenozoic Climate, Ice-sheet and Earth-surface Evolution Derived from Terrestrial and Marine Sedimentary Archives

Creator:: Bill, Nicholas S.
Abstract:: The goals of this dissertation are centered on understanding changes in Earth surface and climate systems through the use of geologic proxies as records of past changes in these systems. Specifically, this dissertation (1) establishes a new chronology for retreat of the Ross Sea sector of the West Antarctic Ice...

Seismic wave attenuation of the crust and upper mantle in the Himalaya and South-Central Tibetan Plateau

Creator:: Monigle, Patrick W.
Abstract:: Recent geophysical and geological investigations of the Tibetan plateau have given rise to conflicting models of plateau growth and deformation, where the presence and extent of partial melt in the crust could be a determining factor. Here we investigate the attenuation structure of the crust and upper mantle, as attenuation...

Low-frequency Teleseismic and Infrasound Arrivals along the Dense Corvallis Nodal Array

Creator:: Way, Rachel
Abstract:: The dense Corvallis array deployed in January of 2022 aided in the high-resolution study of local geology. This array was made of 177 SmartSolo 3-component 5 Hz geophones around Corvallis, with a 93 geophone profile going west towards Bald Hill for approximately 5 km at an average of 64 m...

Observations and prediction of intermittent sediment suspension in the surf zone

Creator:: Yoon, Hyun Doug
Abstract:: In this dissertation the interactions between hydrodynamics, sediment suspension and transport, and morphological evolution in the surf zone was investigated with a large-scale laboratory experiment data, CROss-Shore Sediment Transport Experiment (CROSSTEX). The data set included comprehensive measurements of water surface elevation, fluid velocity, sediment concentration, and morphology for irregular waves...

The 3.1 Ma to 100 ka Goat Rocks Volcanic Complex: Persistence and Evolution of Magmatism at a Long-Lived Major Andesite Locus on the Cascade Arc

Creator:: Wall, Kellie T.
Abstract:: The imposing andesite stratovolcano is the characteristic expression of subduction zone magmatism, posing hazards to coastal populations and bearing insight into deep Earth processes. On a map of a typical volcanic arc, one can easily distinguish the approximately linear alignment and regular spacing of these major edifices that stand out...

Seismicity at the Cascadia plate boundary beneath the Oregon continental shelf

Creator:: Williams, Mark Charles
Abstract:: Since 2003, 39 small earthquakes have been detected offshore central Oregon in the nominally locked part of the Cascadia subduction zone, where very little seis- mic activity has been recorded in spite of a paleo-seismic record of great subduction events. Although the regional earthquake bulletin reports depths of 29 and...

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...
