A Case Study of Solar Warming and Subsequent Mixing in the Arctic Upper Ocean for the 2011 Spring-Summer Transition

Creator:: Lee, Ara
Abstract:: Autonomous buoys were deployed in 2011 in the central Arctic: An Ice-Tethered Profiler (ITP) and Ice Mass Balance (IMB) buoys were deployed in the Makarov basin; a Polar Ocean Profiling System (POPS) and Ice Thickness (Ice-T) buoy were deployed on the Eurasian Basin. The two different sites were approximately 70km...

The Heart Beat of the Megafloods

Creator:: Valdez Hernandez, Saray
Abstract:: Marine sediment core OC1706B-02J ( 46° 15.4178 N, 125° 42.4543 W, at water depth 2263m), was collected on the lower continental slope near the base of the Willapa Canyon. It is a rapidly accumulating site (~30cm/kyr) located near the thrust front of the Cascadia Subduction Zone. The site is also...

Interannual variability of oceanographic conditions on the continental shelf outside of Sermilik Fjord

Creator:: Glickman, Abbie A.
Abstract:: Freshwater flux from the Greenland Ice Sheet has the capacity to affect regional and global circulation as well as contribute to sea level rise. Outlet glaciers are an important part of this process. They provide pathways for inland glaciers and ice sheets to melt and drain into the surrounding oceans....

Constraining Upper Crustal Magmas in the North Chilean Andes

Creator:: Lewis, Charles T.
Abstract:: The 4.59-4.18 Ma Caspana ignimbrite, found within the Altiplano-Puna Volcanic Complex (APVC), is the result of an ~8km3 eruption that took place during the Neogene Ignimbrite Flare-up in the N. Chilean Andes. While most of the eruptions during this flare up are large, monogenetic eruptions, the Caspana that is characterized...

New Zealand’s Subtropical North Island Climate

Creator:: Cockrell, Taylor
Abstract:: Research paper for GEOG323 (Climatology) class describing the effects of physiographic setting, climate elements related to energy, moisture, and pressure and corresponding results on New Zealand's North Island Climate. The paper analyzes major circulation modes, weather patterns and extremes, climate change, and the overall climate type of the region.

Up-estuary extent and lithologic characteristics of tsunami deposits attributed to the 1700 Cascadia earthquake within Alsea Bay, OR

Creator:: Spruell, John T.
Abstract:: Cascadia’s 1700 earthquake generated a tsunami and widespread subsidence along Pacific Northwest coastline. The tsunami deposited sandy sediments in many Oregon coastal estuaries, such as Alsea Bay. Although the recurrence of subduction-generated megathrust earthquakes and tsunami events in this region are recorded in the stratigraphy, knowledge of the full inland...

Constraining the origin and influence of andesite in the Purico ignimbrite, N. Chile

Creator:: Lapinski, Sarah L.
Abstract:: A feature of large continental magmatic systems is voluminous dacite ignimbrites erupted from upper crustal magma reservoirs. In the Altiplano Puna Volcanic Complex (APVC) of the Central Andes, a major ignimbrite and caldera plateau, magma systems are found to be long-lived and remarkably homogeneous requiring that they be maintained by...

Carbon isotopes show snowpack acts as a valuable moisture subsidy to mountain forests in the Oregon Cascades

Creator:: Ratcliff, Christopher J.
Abstract:: This study examines climatological influences, particularly that of snowpack, on tree growth and stable carbon isotope discrimination (Δ¹³C) from ~1980 to 2013 at two sites located in the upper reaches of the McKenzie River watershed of the Oregon Cascade Mountains. We tested the use of Δ¹³C values from latewood, corroborated...
