Superposed compressional and extensional strain in Lower Paleozic rocks of the northwestern Grant Range, Nevada

Creator:: Camilleri, Phyllis A.
Abstract:: The Grant Range, in east-central Nevada, is a north-east trending range bounded on the west by a west-dipping normal fault system. Rocks within the range record a complex polyphase Mesozoic ductile compressional and Cenozoic brittle extensional deformational history. The northwestern Grant Range exposes deformed, regionally metamorphosed and unmetamorphosed, Cambrian to...

Effect of environmental variables on the structure and function of hemocyanin from Callianassa californiensis (Decapoda: Thalassinidea)

Creator:: Miller, Karen Illman
Abstract:: Oxygen binding behavior and subunit association-dissociation of the hemocyanin from Callianassa are sensitive to several environmental variables. Callianassa californiensis is a burrowing estuarine which must survive changes in salinity, temperature and oxygen availability. Previous work on the structure and function of the hemocyanin was done under conditions which did not...

Transect across the Salmon River suture, South Fork of the Clearwater River, western Idaho : rare earth element geochemical, structural, and metamorphic study

Creator:: Hoover, Amy L.
Abstract:: In the South Fork of the Clearwater River area, the Salmon River suture (Lund and others, in prep.) is defined by an abrupt change in lithology, structure, initial strontium isotope ratios (Fleck and Criss, 1985), and rare earth element signatures. These changes occur across a narrow, structurally complex zone (less...
