At the Costa Rica margin along the Middle America Trench along‐strike variations in heat flow are well
mapped. These variations can be understood in terms of either ventilated fluid flow, where exposed basement
allows fluids to freely advect heat between the crustal aquifer and ocean, or insulated fluid flow where...
Siletzia is a basaltic Paleocene and Eocene
large igneous province in coastal Oregon,
Washington, and southern Vancouver Island
that was accreted to North America in the
early Eocene. New U-Pb magmatic, detrital
zircon, and ⁴⁰Ar/³⁹Ar ages constrained by
detailed field mapping, global nannoplankton
zones, and magnetic polarities allow correlation
of...

An integral component to understanding lithospheric rheology, fault mechanics, and geodynamic processes is knowledge of the subsurface thermal regime. This study presents thermal data from 26 new borehole sites drilled during the installation of borehole strain meters as part of the Plate Boundary Observatory (PBO). These data extends existing coverage...
The northwestern corner of the Basin and Range Province (NWBR) lies in southeast Oregon where extensive Late Miocene, mafic to bimodal basalt-rhyolite volcanism and extensional faults dominate a stark and arid landscape. Near Lake Abert, the Late Miocene volcanic section abuts Early Miocene, dominantly intermediate composition volcanoes at the Coleman...
Many approaches for achieving intelligent behavior of automated (computer) systems involve components that learn from past experience. This dissertation studies computational methods for learning from examples, for classification and for decision
making, when the decisions have different non-zero costs associated with them. Many practical applications of learning algorithms, including transaction...
Heat flow analysis of the Costa Rica convergent margin is carried out for seven core sites drilled during Integrated Ocean Drilling Program (IODP) Expeditions 334 and 344 as part of the Costa Rica Seismogenesis Project (CRISP). These expeditions were designed to develop a better understanding of erosional subduction zones. Heat...
