The flow mechanics and resulting erosional and depositional features of explosive volcanic density currents on earth and Mars

Creator:: Reimers, Clare E.
Abstract:: Straight, radial, erosional channels and fan-like deposits of tephra develop around steep-sided cones and composite volcanoes, but are not characteristic features of shield volcanoes. The channels and deposits normally are formed by explosive volcanic density currents which originate as nuées adrentes or base surges. The physical processes of explosive volcanic...

Along-coast variations of Oregon beach-sand compositions produced by the mixing of sediments from multiple sources under a transgressing sea

Creator:: Clemens, Karen E.
Abstract:: Heavy mineral compositions of sands from Oregon beaches, rivers and sea cliffs have been determined in order to examine the causes of marked along-coast variations in the beach-sand mineralogy. The study area extends southward from the Columbia River to the Coquille River in southern Oregon. The heavy-mineral compositions were determined...

Tide-topography coupling on a continental slope

Creator:: Kelly, Samuel M.
Abstract:: Tide-topography coupling is important for understanding surface-tide energy loss, the intermittency of internal tides, and the cascade of internal-tide energy from large to small scales. Although tide-topography coupling has been observed and modeled for 50 years, the identification of surface and internal tides over arbitrary topography has not been standardized....

Horizontal and vertical distribution of juvenile pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) in the southeastern Bering Sea

Creator:: McIntosh, Neal E.
Abstract:: Juvenile walleye pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) are one of the primary prey items for bird and mammal predators in the Bering Sea and support a large commercial fishery. An understanding of the environmental factors that determine the horizontal and vertical distribution of juvenile pollock is needed to estimate the effects that...

Distribution of recent foraminifera in relation to estuarine hydrography, Yaquina Bay, Oregon

Creator:: Manske, Douglas Charles
Abstract:: The foraminiferal population of Yaquina Bay was investigated to attempt a correlation of seasonal changes in the hydrography with observed changes in the faunal distribution patterns. The results are based on data from two spatial surveys conducted in July 1966, and late February and March, 1967. The hydrography of Yaquina...
