Evidence for diffuse exension of the Pacific plate from Pukapuka ridges and cross-grain gravity lineations

Creator:

Sandwell, David T., Winterer, Edward L., Mammerickx, Jacqueline, Duncan, Robert A., Lynch, Mary Ann, Levitt, Daniel A., and Johnson, Catherine L.

Abstract:

Satellite altimeter measurements of marine gravity reveal 100 to 200-km wavelength lineations over a wide area of the Pacific plate oriented roughly in the direction of absolute plate motion. At least three mechanisms have been proposed for their origin: smallscale convective rolls aligned in the direction of absolute plate motion...

Abstract:

During the Ice in Clouds Experiment‐Layer Clouds (ICE‐L), dry lakebed, or playa, salts from the Great Basin region of the United States were observed as cloud nuclei in orographic wave clouds over Wyoming. Using a counterflow virtual impactor in series with a single‐particle mass spectrometer, sodium‐potassium‐magnesium‐calcium‐chloride salts were identified as...
