Deciphering the Earliest Holocene
ISBN: 9783838319797 / Angielski / Miękka / 108 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Oneida Lake formed as a relict arm of glacial Lake Iroquois near the Pleistocene-Holocene transition (13-8 ka). As the southeastern portion of the Lake Ontario Basin settled into its Holocene drainage patterns during the Younger Dryas period (11-10 ka), Oneida Lake receded, leaving a series of exposed beach ridges on the southeastern lacustrine plain. The easternmost ridge of Oneida Lake, having been previously dated at 10.7 14C ka BP, marks the limit of the area under investigation; the western limit is the modern Oneida Lake shoreline - Verona Beach. This demarcates a study area of 2.25...

Magnetostratigraphy of the Upper Jurassic
ISBN: 9783838369709 / Angielski / Miękka / 216 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Over the last couple decades, extended research has been conducted to resolve questions about the Jurassic, a time when the Pangaea was split into new continents and the present Pacific plate was formed. However, the Pacific spreading recorded by the pre-M25 marine magnetic anomalies remained uncalibrated due to the incomplete magnetic polarity results from some Middle and Upper Jurassic outcrops. In addition, the paleolatitude and rotation of the European plate during this period remained uncertain due to sparse and insufficient paleomagnetic data. This book verifies the above...

Regional Climate and Anthropogenic Impacts on Coastal Sedimentation
ISBN: 9783838349138 / Angielski / Miękka / 76 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Eleven sediment cores collected in salt ponds surrounding St. John document the effect of regional climate on the recent increase of terrestrial sediment input attributed to anthropogenic activities. Increased terrestrial infilling rates in the last 100 years, determined by Lead-210 dating, are a result of increased human activity. Comparing the rate of terrestrial sediment introduced naturally to the current input rate demonstrates the drastic effect of human development on the islands natural evolution. This study explores regional climate as an additional control on the recent...

Temperature and Frequency Dependence of Viscoelasticity in Bitumen
ISBN: 9783838387604 / Angielski / Miękka / 180 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Bitumen is a viscoelastic material that has a nonzero shear modulus at low temperatures and/or high frequencies. This viscoelastic behavior results from its large, complex, molecular compounds that create dense, viscous hydrocarbons. Subsurface bitumen fields require secondary recovery processes to reduce viscosity and produce the hydrocarbons. Heat is one of the primary techniques. The change of velocity in the reservoir should be a function of the temperature and production of the bitumen. This thesis has two lines of investigation to aid in understanding the temperature and...

Seismic Methods in Uranium Exploration
ISBN: 9783843350150 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Mc. Arthur River ore body is the worlds richest high-grade uranium deposit, associated with an important unconformity separating Paleoproterozoic metamorphic- and Mesoproterozoic sedimentary rock sequences. Mineralization is controlled by pervasive brittle faulting and traditional geophysical methods deployed by the mining industry are unable to resolve the structural complexity at depths exceeding 500m. With increasing depths exploration activity requires images with higher structural definition in order to delineate further uranium deposits. High-resolution 2D and 3D seismic...

Western Himalayan Foreland Basin, India
ISBN: 9783838336558 / Angielski / Miękka / 228 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. At ~10ka, all the major rivers in the upper Gangetic plain were incised due to an increase in discharges because of warmer climate, giving rise to large uplands. Compression from SW almost at the same time caused development of curvilinear longitudinal Ganga and Yamuna faults with convexity to the SW, which bounds the study area. Newly developed techniques of remote sensing and GIS are used to identify terminal fans and normal faults in the present flat plains. Ten normal faults nearly normal to the longitudinal faults are identified, indicating their formation related to...
