Perturbation methods in geophysics and oceanography

Creator:: Lu, Richard Shih-Ming
Abstract:: The perturbation method is applied to solve two numerical problems in the earth sciences, viz., (l)the computation of deep sea currents in the coastal region of the northeast Pacific and (2) the interpretation of D.C. conduction data in exploration geophysics. The perturbation method is largely equivalent to the method of...

An approach to thermal convection problems in geophysics with application to the earth's mantle and ground water systems

Creator:: Lowell, Robert P.
Abstract:: Two thermal convection problems of geophysical interest are examined, theoretically. First, convection in the earth's mantle is treated on the basis of a one-dimensional 'strip model'. This model results from further simplification of the well known 'Rayleigh model'. For homogeneous, Newtonian fluids, the strip model yields results similar to those...

Full Text:: (1968) reviews the state of the art concerning high pressure geophysics. There is also uncertainty

On the numerical interpretation of gravity and other potential field anomalies caused by layers of varying thickness

Creator:: Adotevi-Akue, George Modesto
Abstract:: This thesis involves the interpretation of gravity and other potential field anomalies caused by layers of varying thickness. The partial differential equations of potential field theory are reviewed for gravitational and magnetic force fields. A similar review is carried out for steady-state heat transport and diffusion processes. For the gravitational...

Crustal structure and thermal gradients of the northern Gulf of California determined using spectral analysis of magnetic anomalies

Creator:: Zamora, Osvaldo Sanchez
Abstract:: Geophysical surveys in the Gulf of California provided the data to construct contour maps of bathymetry, free-air anomalies and total field magnetic anomalies for the area north of 27° N. Major faults such as the Ballenas- Salsipuedes, Tiburón, Guaymas, and the South Cerro Prieto are clearly observable on these maps....

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...

Plate boundary deformation of the Pacific plate : two case studies

Creator:: Leitner, Beate
Abstract:: Two examples of Pacific rim plate boundary deformation are presented. In the first part of the thesis crustal models are derived for the northwestern part of the Vizcaino block in California using marine seismic and gravity data collected by the Mendocino Triple Junction Seismic Experiment. A northwest-southeast trending kink in...

Analytical and numerical continuation methods for conductive temperature fields

Creator:: Eggers, Dwight Edward
Abstract:: The continuation of conductive temperature fields is being considered. The continuation of a field involves the extrapolation of a field known over a limited domain to an adjacent domain in such a way that it satisfies the heat conduction differential equation and other imposed constraints. Continuations forward in time and...
