ThesisGebauer, SamanthaThe exhumed root of the Triassic to Early Cretaceous continental arc in Fiordland, New Zealand preserves a record of deep crustal arc processes during and following high‐flux magmatism from c. 124‐115 Ma. We present new LASS-ICP-MS and SHRIMP‐RG 206Pb . . .

ThesisDirgo, DannonDrainage basins and their network of streams affected by past and ongoing tectonic activity may be characterized by high gradients, re-directed (offset) channels and sediment loads that reflect hydrologically discontinuous transport and deposition pro . . .

ThesisVilkas, MariusThe western Tarim Basin contains the sedimentary record of the adjacent Tian Shan and Pamir orogens. Diverse basement lithologies and mixing of sources here complicates the sedimentary signature of orogenic growth. To understand the southern Tian Shan . . .

ArticleFarley, Kathleen A.Thermomechanical models of mantle lithosphere removal from beneath the southern Sierra Nevada region, California (USA), predict a complex spatiotemporal pattern of vertical surface displacements. We evaluate these models by using (U-Th)/He thermochron . . .

ArticleKylander-Clark, AndrewThe exhumed Fiordland sector of Zealandia offers a deep-crustal view into the life cycle of a Cordilleran-type orogen from final magmatic construction to extensional orogenic collapse. We integrate U-Pb thermochronologic data from metamorphic zircon a . . .

ArticleGehrels, George E.During the Late Cretaceous to early Cenozoic, southern California was impacted by two anomalous tectonic events: (1) underplating of the oceanic Pelona-Orocopia-Rand schists beneath North American arc crust and craton; and (2) removal of the western m . . . -
Graduate projectMacy, KyleThe Yorba Linda Trend is a proposed NE-SW alignment of earthquakes near the western edge of the Los Angeles Basin in southern California first described by Egill Hauksson in the early 1990s (Hauksson, 1990). Most earthquakes in this area exhibit a str . . .

ThesisThe Stanislaus Group in a Beheaded Drainage: Tectonics at the Margin of the Sierra Nevada MicroplateSchubert, Rosalie, PowerWest of Bridgeport Valley near the Sierra Nevada crest, the Little Walker Caldera erupted Late Miocene Stanislaus Group lavas (Table Mountain Formation) and ignimbrites (Eureka Valley Tuff). Remnants of these rocks are now distributed from the western . . .
