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...

Segmentation of the Blanco Transform Fault Zone from earthquake analysis: Complex tectonics of an oceanic transform fault

Creator:: Braunmiller, Jochen and Nábělek, John
Abstract:: The Blanco Transform Fault Zone (BTFZ) forms the ~350 km long Pacific–Juan de Fuca plate boundary between the Gorda and Juan de Fuca ridges. Nearby broadband seismic networks provide a unique framework for a detailed, long-term seismotectonic study of an entire oceanic transform fault (OTF) system. We use regional waveforms...

Seismotectonics of the Explorer region

Creator:: Braunmiller, Jochen and Nábělek, John
Abstract:: The Explorer region offshore western Canada is a tectonically complex area surrounded by the Pacific, North America, and Juan de Fuca plates. Existing tectonic models for the region differ fundamentally. Proposed plate configurations range from multiple independent plate fragments to an Explorer plate now fused to North America along the...

Structural geology and dislocation modeling of the East Coyote anticline, eastern Los Angles basin

Creator:: Myers, Daniel J.
Abstract:: The 1994 Northridge and 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquakes warned Los Angeles residents of the threat of earthquakes due to unmapped, blind reverse faults and emphasized the importance of identifying and characterizing blind reverse faults in assessing the seismic hazard to the region. The East and West Coyote Hills in the...

Seismotectonics in the eastern Precordillera, San Juan, Argentina : reconciling earthquakes and structural geology in the vicinity of the 1944 earthquake for a new model of crustal-scale deformation

Creator:: Schiffman, Celia Rose
Abstract:: This thesis synthesizes surficial structural data, a detailed analysis of an earthquake in 1944, and historical seismicity into a new model of crustal scale deformation in the eastern Precordillera in northwestern Argentina in the vicinity of San Juan. The eastern Precordillera was uplifted during previous thin-skinned deformation episodes, and is...

Spectral analysis of seismic noise induced by rivers: a new tool to monitor spatiotemporal changes in stream hydrodynamics

Creator:: Burtin, A., Bollinger, L., Vergne, J., Cattin, R., and Nabelek, John L.
Abstract:: Analysis of continuous seismic data recorded by a dense passive seismological network (Hi‐CLIMB) installed across the Himalayas reveals strong spatial and temporal variations in the ambient seismic energy produced at high frequencies (>1 Hz). From June to September 2003, the high‐frequency seismic noise is observed to increase up to 20...

Spatiotemporal sequence of Himalayan debris flow from analysis of high-frequence seismic noise

Creator:: Burtin, A., Bollinger, L., Cattin, R., Vergne, J., and Nabelek, John L.
Abstract:: During the 2003 summer monsoon, the Hi‐CLIMB seismological stations deployed across the Himalayan Range detected bursts of high‐frequency seismic noise that lasted several hours to days. On the basis of the cross correlation of seismic envelopes recorded at 11 stations, we show that the largest transient event on 15 August...

Dislocation modeling of blind thrusts in the eastern Los Angeles basin, California

Creator:: Myers, Daniel J., Nabelek, John L., and Yeats, Robert S.
Abstract:: The East and West Coyote Hills in the eastern Los Angeles Basin are the surface expression of uplift accompanying blind reverse faulting. Folded Quaternary strata indicate that the hills are growing and that the faults underlying them are active. Detailed subsurface mapping in the East Coyote Oil Field shows that...

A focused look at the Alpine fault, New Zealand: seismicity, focal mechanisms, and stress observations

Creator:: Leitner, Beate, Eberhart-Phillips, Donna, Anderson, Helen, and Nabelek, John L.
Abstract:: The Alpine fault is the Pacific-Australian plate boundary in the South Island of New Zealand. This study analyzes 195 earthquakes recorded during the 6 month duration of the Southern Alps Passive Seismic Experiment (SAPSE) in 1995/1996 and two M₁. 5.0 earthquakes and aftershocks in 1997, which occurred close to the...

Transparent electronics : thin-film transistors and integrated circuits

Creator:: Presley, Rick E.
Abstract:: This thesis focuses on two aspects of transparent electronics, SnO₂ transparent thin-film transistors (TTFTs) and transparent circuits. Both depletion- and enhancement-mode SnO₂ TTFTs are realized. The maximum effective mobility for the depletion- and enhancement-mode devices are 2 cm²V⁻¹s⁻¹ and 0.8 cm²V⁻¹s⁻¹, respectively. A variety of techniques to decrease the carrier...
