Estimates of the relative motion between the Hawaiian and Louisville hot spots have consequences
for understanding the role and character of deep Pacific-mantle return flow. The relative motion between
these primary hot spots can be inferred by comparing the age records for their seamount trails. We report
⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages for...
Multibeam (1 m resolution) and side scan data collected from an autonomous underwater vehicle, and
lava samples, radiocarbon-dated sediment cores, and observations of flow contacts collected by remotely
operated vehicle were combined to reconstruct the geologic history and flow emplacement processes on
Axial Seamount’s summit and upper rift zones. The...
Radiation protection has historically been from a human protection approach, therefore many studies have neglected the potential dose contribution from the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) in animal studies. The International Commission on Radiological Protection (ICRP) utilized simplified geometric shapes with Dose Conversion Factors (DCF) based on homogenized models for the trout...
