Mormons and evolution : a history of B. H. Roberts and his attempt to reconcile science and religion

Creator:: Reid, Tim S.
Abstract:: Although much has been written describing the various reactions to the origin of Species in America, the Mormon reaction to Darwinism has been largely ignored. This dissertation will recount the history of this reaction as exemplified by the life and works of B. H. Roberts. Roberts's intellectual pursuits early in...

Structure and seismic hazards of the offshore Cascadia forearc and evolution of the Neogene forearc basin

Creator:: McNeill, Lisa C.
Abstract:: The Cascadia subduction zone has been characterized as a typical Chilean-type subduction zone based on qualitative comparisons of plate age and convergence rate, with simple forearc structure. However, the discovery of unusual structural styles of deformation, variations in the morphology of the forearc, and its absence of seismic activity suggest...

Evaluation of seismic hazards from the Median Tectonic Line, Japan and blind thrust faults in the Los Angeles metropolitan area, California

Creator:: Tsutsumi, Hiroyuki
Abstract:: This thesis analyzes active geologic structures in densely populated areas in Japan and southern California based on geological, geophysical, and paleoseismological observations. Chapter 2 discusses segmentation and paleoseismology of the Median Tectonic Line, Japan. We identified 12 geometric segments along the Median Tectonic Line separated by discontinuities such as en...

Acoustic monitoring of earthquakes along the Blanco Transform Fault Zone and Gorda plate and their tectonic implications

Creator:: Dziak, Robert P.
Abstract:: Hydroacoustic tertiary (T-) waves are seismically generated acoustic waves that propagate over great distances in the ocean sound channel with little loss in signal strength. Hydrophone recorded T-waves can provide a lower earthquake detection threshold and an improved epicenter location accuracy for oceanic earthquakes than land-based seismic networks. Thus detection...

Stratigraphic and structural framework of Himalayan foothills, northern Pakistan

Creator:: Pogue, Kevin R.
Abstract:: The oldest sedimentary and metasedimentary rocks exposed in the Himalayan foothills of Pakistan record a gradual transition seaward from the evaporites of the Salt Range Formation to pelitic sediments deposited in deeper water to the north. The Upper Proterozoic Tanawal Formation was derived from erosion of a northern highland produced...

Geology and geophysics of the foreland fold-thrust belt of northwestern Pakistan

Creator:: McDougall, James William
Abstract:: Himalayan collision produced frontal and lateral ramps and associated Pliocene to Quaternary tectonic geomorphic features in the foreland fold-thrust belt of northwestern Pakistan. The transpressional right-lateral Kalabagh tear fault zone displaced the emergent Surghar Range frontal thrust from the western Salt Range by 16-19 km since 1.9-2.1 Ma: the age...

Active deformation of the Cascadia forearc : implications for great earthquake potential in Oregon and Washington

Creator:: Goldfinger, Chris
Abstract:: Nine west-northwest-trending faults on the continental margin of Oregon and Washington, between 43° 05'N and 470 20'N latitude, have been mapped using seismic reflection, sidescan sonar, submersibles, and swath bathymetry. Five of these oblique faults are found on both the Juan de Fuca and North American plates, and offset abyssal...

Convergence rates across the Ventura Basin, California

Creator:: Huftile, Gary J.
Abstract:: Four cross sections are balanced and retrodeformed to 250±50 ka and 975±75 ka to yield crustal shortening amounts and rates for the western Transverse Ranges of California. The cross sections compare the shortening that occurs along a transfer zone in which displacement is transferred eastward from a surface reverse fault...
