Paleozoic dolomites, limestones, and detrital clastic rocks
were mapped in the Bellevue Peak 15 minute quadrangle in the
southern Mahogany Hills, Nevada. Sedimentary rock units in this
area represent shallow-shelf eastern assemblage deposits.
Shallow-shelf carbonates characterized deposition from at
least Ordovician through Late Devonian time, when clastics derived
from the...

This study examines the impact of the recently constructed
limited- access highway, Interstate 5, on agricultural land in Linn
County, Oregon. More specifically it scrutinizes the quality and
quantity of the land relinquished to the highway right -of -way; the
effects on field boundaries, connectivity, mobility, drainage, land
use, miscellaneous...

AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF

The use of zebrafish in behavioral neuroscience is rapidly growing. Zebrafish can be assessed for alterations in multiple behavioral endpoints, creating opportunities to use this powerful model to identify chemicals that alter behavioral phenotypes. To evaluate the utility of zebrafish for neurotoxicity research, we designed custom instrumentation to evaluate numerous...

The purpose of this study was to test two hypotheses. The first
hypothesis interprets allochthonous rocks in the Willow Creek area of the
Pinyon Range as lying on flat, superficial thrusts that truncate the
underlying folded Mississippian rocks of the Antler flysch sequence.
The second hypothesis interprets the allochthonous rocks...

Paleozoic limestones, dolomites, quartz arenites, and other
clastic rocks were mapped in the vicinity of Dobbin Summit and
Clear Creek in the central Monitor Range. Sedimentary rock units
present in this area represent the shallow-shelf eastern assemblage
and basin and also the basin-slope facies of the traditional limestoneclastic
assemblage.

Surface and subsurface data indicate that Cretaceous strata
in the southern Ventura basin are part of the northward prograding
Chatsworth submarine fan. The fan extends westward as far as
Trancas Beach in the Santa Monica Mountains and wells in the
Oxnard Plain and on Oak Ridge. The eastern edge of...

The Santa Barbara-Montecito and Goleta basins are structurally
continuous fault-controlled Pleistocene basins containing
up to 3000 feet (925 m) of marine Pleistocene Santa Barbara Formation
which were deposited on previously deformed Sisquoc and older
strata. Structures subcropping against the unconformity at the
base of the Santa Barbara Formation show that...
