Meyer's Canyon, a tributary of Bridge Creek in the John Day
Basin, is a deeply incised valley fill in northcentral Oregon. The
current channel is incised to the Cretaceous and Tertiary bedrock.
To determine the precedence of the current incision and the variation
and timing of depositional sequences, the sediments...
An increased frequency of eating meals away from home, increasing portion sizes in foods and a lack of information about the nutrient content of restaurant foods may be important factors related to increases in obesity. Methods to improve the healthfulness of meals eaten away from home have been highly debated....
In a subduction zone, the volcanic arc marks the location where magma, generated via flux melting in the mantle wedge, migrates through the crust and erupts. While the location of deep magma broadly defines the arc position, here we argue that crustal structures, identified in geophysical data from the Washington...
Internal gravity waves, the subsurface analogue of the familiar
surface gravity waves that break on beaches, are ubiquitous in
the ocean. Because of their strong vertical and horizontal currents,
and the turbulent mixing caused by their breaking, they affect a
panoply of ocean processes, such as the supply of nutrients...
