This thesis treats the problem of enumerating equivalence
classes of Euler paths of full graphs. A full graph
is a complete, unordered, graph with no loops or repeated
edges. Two Euler paths are equivalent if and only if one
can be transformed into the other by a finite sequence of...
Three seismic refraction profiles obtained between 42°N and
43°N along the median valley of the Gorda Ridge, an active spreading
center, allow the computation of the velocity structure underlying the
valley. Wide angle reflections which appear on the seismic records
suggest the existence of a velocity inversion underlying layer 3...
University deployed two arrays of three sonobuoys over the Blanco
fracture zone and two arrays of four sonobuoys over the Gorda ridge
to detect and locate microearthquakes. Microearthquake activity predicted
by plate tectonic theory for the Blanco fracture zone and Gorda
ridge was observed by these arrays to originate from...
The seismicity at the northern section of the Gorda Ridge has been
studied with Ocean Bottom Seismographs. Nearly one hundred earthquakes
were located with RMS travel time residuals less than 0.5 seconds.
Most of these events lie within or near the array and they are probably
associated with the dynamics...
This thesis develops a manual for interpreters at six National Park Service areas established to preserve and interpret fossils of the Cenozoic Era: Fossil Butte National Monument (Wyoming), John Day Fossil Beds National Monument (Oregon), Badlands National Park (South Dakota), Florissant Fossil Beds National Monument (Colorado), Agate Fossil Beds National...
