Recent faulting and active shortening of the Middle Atlas Mountains, Morocco, within the diffuse African-Eurasian plate boundary
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The intracontinental Atlas Mountains of northwest Africa are prominent tectonic elements in the broader, diffuse plate boundary zone between the converging African and Eurasian plates. This study focuses on constraining ...
Dynamic links between short-term deformation and long-term tectonics: a finite element study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Geodetic and geological data for crustal deformation are significantly different in many places. This discrepancy may indicate different strain rates in the geological past...
Earthquake interaction along the Sultandagi-Aksehir fault based on InSar and coulomb stress modeling
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2008)
The evolution of geologic structures along active faults is influenced by crustal deformation associated with several repetitions of the earthquake cycle, in addition to surficial processes accompanying geologic time. This study focuses...
Surface and deep water circulation in late Cretaceous North Atlantic greenhouse ocean
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2009)
This research provides the first of its kind empirical data regarding the evolution of Maastrichtian surface to deep ocean circulation in the North Atlantic. Differences in foraminiferal abundances and oxygen and carbon ...
Don't throw rocks off the mountains
(University of Missouri. Alumni Association, 1973)
"MU's Wyoming 'campus' draws students from 18 other colleges and universities, giving testimony to the national reputation of the Mizzou geology program."--Table of contents for issue....
Investigation of an invasive crayfish and its relation to two imperiled native crayfishes; anthropogenic influences, multi-scale habitat associations, and conservation options
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
, suggesting that it is not taking advantage of stressed aquatic environments to establish and replace native crayfishes. The most highly associated natural factors for all three species related to either soils or geology. Fine-scale habitat use of O. hylas...
Evaluation of solitary waves as a mechanism for oil transport in elastic porous media : a case study of the south Eugene Island field, Gulf of Mexico basin
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2012)
Hydrocarbons in shallow (< 1 km depth) Pleistocene sand reservoirs of the Eugene Island 330 field in the northern Gulf of Mexico basin are thought to have originated from Early Tertiary source sediments at depths of about ...
Changes in stable carbon isotopes of methane along a salinity gradient in a hypersaline microbial mat system
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The purpose of this study was to examine how the stable carbon isotopes of methane and possible methanogenic substrates change in microbial mat communities as a function of salinity. Microbial mats were sampled from four ...
Fluid inclusion and oxygen isotope studies of high-grade quartz-scheelite veins at the Cantung Mine, Northwest Territories, Canada: products of a late-stage magmatic-hydrothermal event
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
High-grade quartz-scheelite veins in the Open Pit orebody, Cantung occur 300 m above a limestone-monzogranite contact where the E-Zone orebody, a world-class tungsten skarn, is developed. Adjacent to these veins, alteration ...

Characterizing the relative timing and conditions of gold and base-metal deposition in the northern part of the Yellowknife Greenstone Belt, Northwest Territories, Canada
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
A complexity of gold-mineralization styles is recognized in the north end of the Yellowknife Greenstone Belt (YGB), [about]30 km north of Yellowknife. These include volcanogenic massive sulfides, sulfide zones at intersections ...
Annual report of the librarian, 1907

Announcement of the College of Agriculture of the University of Missouri, 1949-50
(University of Missouri, College of Agriculture, 1949)
The University of Missouri College of Agriculture offers courses of study in all phases of agriculture, home economics, forestry, and veterinary science usually practiced in this area. The degrees Bachelor of Science in Agriculture, Bachelor...
Fault evolution and earthquakes : a finite element study
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
The New Madrid Seismic Zone (NMSZ) in central United States is a good example of intraplate seismicity, which cannot be readily explained by the plate tectonics theory and remains poorly understood. I have developed a 3D ...
Neodymium and oxygen isotopic constraints on upper Ordovician paleoceanographic evolution across the Dubuque/Maquoketa contact in NE Iowa and SE Minnesota
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
Measurements of conodonts, phosphatic brachiopods, and authigenic phosphate show no consistent trends in [superscript TM]18O[subscript phos] values but do show a gradual 2-3 unit [epsilon][subscript Nd] increase across the ...

Lithium and lithium isotopes in tourmaline as indicators of crystallization processes: a study of San Diego County pegmatites, California
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
The pegmatites of San Diego County, California, are part of the Mesozoic Peninsular Ranges Batholith of southwestern California and Baja California, Mexico. Three LCT- pegmatites were studied. The pegmatites have texturally, ...
Igneous intrusions and thermal evolution in the Raton Basin, CO-NM: contact metamorphism and coal-bed methane generation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Tertiary mafic dikes and sills intrude coal-bearing formations of the Raton Basin. This study investigates the role of intrusions in generating methane from coal. Coal samples at four different outcrops were analyzed by ...
