Pluton source varition over two magmatic pulses in the white-inyo range, central-eastern California : implications for paleozoic and mesozoic tectonic reconstructions
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] This dissertation uses compositions of plutons in the White-Inyo Range (WIR) of central-eastern California, which is an important tectonic boundary as it is the easternmost...
Structural geology and tectonics of the paleoproterozoic rocks of the Mount Rushmore Quadangle, Black Hills, Souh Dakota
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The Paleoproterozoic assembly of Laurentia occurred between ̃1.96 to 1.70 Ga, and continued with the accretion of island arc terranes until about 1.63 Ga. The Black Hills, South Dakota lie along the eastern margin of the ...
Taxonomy, taphonomy, and ecology of Silurian (late Telychian) conulariids from the Waukesha Lagerstatte, Wisconsin
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
the Waukesha Lagerstatte. Secondly, we assess the general taphonomy and preservational pathways of the conulariids. Thirdly, we investigate the identity of, and paleoecological relationship between the conulariids and their epibionts. Specimens (n = 40...
Anisotropy and mantle flow of the Indo-Burma subduction zone from shear wave splitting and shear wave splitting tomography
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2020)
The Indo-Burma subduction zone lies on the eastern boundary of the 1500 km long Alpine-Himalayan orogenic belt. Despite highly oblique plate motion with limited arc development, convergence is still ongoing with the potential ...
