Abstract:: The Juan de Fuca plate system is what remains of Farallon plate subducting under the continental North American plate. Blanco Transform Fault Zone (BTFZ) consists of a network of strike-slip faults discontinued by pull apart depressions which o↵sets the Juan de Fuca Ridge and the Gorda Ridge. Detailed analysis of...

Creator:: Kuna, Václav M.
Abstract:: The dissertation concentrates on seismicity of the Blanco Transform Fault (BTF), a 350-km-long oceanic transform fault (OTF) in the northeast Pacific Ocean. I analyze data collected during the Blanco Transform Fault OBS experiment, which comprised of a 1-year deployment of 55 three-component seismometers co-located with differential pressure gauges on and...

Abstract:: Measuring surface heat flow at the Hikurangi Trough is key toward characterizing the local thermal regime and the influence of thermally sensitive processes such as fluid flow and slow slip. Marine heat flow data were collected during May– June 2015 in the northern Hikurangi Trough at sites seaward and landward...

Abstract:: Signals from the R/V Langseth’s tuned airgun array were recorded on an array of 33 EarthScope FlexArray seismometers deployed in the Oregon Coast Range from 43.5° to 45°N as part of the 2012 Ridge2Trench experiment to image the structure of the Juan de Fuca plate. This segment of the Juan...

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...
