Analysis of the effects of carbonate mounds on associated stratal geometry and fracture development, Sacramento Mountains, New Mexico, USA
(2016-12)
The objective of this research is an integrated structural‐stratigraphic analysis of compaction‐related fracturing in carbonate mounds and associated cover strata. The influence of early-cemented carbonate mounds on ...
Foreland basin evolution and exhumation along the deformation front of the Eastern Cordillera, northern Andes, Colombia
(2010-08)
Tracking the phases of Cenozoic deformation in the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia has proven to be a challenging task. Clear disagreements remain in interpretations of the timing of uplift of the Eastern Cordillera, possibly ...
Kinematic analysis of outcrop-scale structures, southern Big Sur segment of Highway 1, Monterey and San Luis Obispo Counties, California
(2007)
The Nacimiento Block is located in the Southern Coast Ranges of California, and consists mainly of Franciscan Complex accretionary prism rocks. It is cross-cut by the San Gregorio-Hosgri Fault Zone, a major right-lateral ...
Pliocene-Quaternary deformation and magmatism at the southern margin of the Puna plateau, Argentine Andes
(2005)
New fault data and mapping of volcanic rocks from northwestern Argentina's Cordillera de San Buenaventura, a Pliocene-Quaternary, E-W trending volcanic range at the southern margin of the Puna plateau adjacent to the modern ...
Dune behavior in a multidirectional wind regime : White Sands Dune Field, New Mexico
(2014-08)
As with most dune fields, the White Sands Dune Field in New Mexico forms in a wind regime that is not unimodal. In this study, dune behavior at White Sands was documented from a time series of five lidar-derived digital ...
Interactions between turbidity currents, turbidites and topography generated by a mobile substrate
(2016-12)
Models for development and filling of submarine minibasins remain incomplete for the following reasons: (1) they seldom account for growth of seafloor topography via subsurface salt motion that coincides with turbidite ...
High-temperature carbonate replacement mineralization, metamorphism, deformation, and intrusion in the Bryant District, Beaverhead County, Montana
(2003)
The Bryant District, in the southwest Montana fold-and-thrust belt, contains many structurally and lithologically controlled high-temperature carbonate replacement Pb-Zn-Cu-Ag-Au deposits. Laramide crustal shortening ...
A generalized model to estimate the elastic stiffness tensor of mudrocks based on the full strain tensor
(2021-05-07)
I develop a three-step framework to model the anisotropic elastic properties of a mechanically compacted mudrock based on the full strain tensor. I model the microstructure as an effective medium representative of locally ...
Subsurface structure, stratigraphy, and regional tectonic controls of the Guajira margin of northern Colombia
(2008-05)
I combine previous data from Mesozoic outcrops in the Guajira Peninsula of northern Colombia with new regional gravity, bathymetric, and seismic interpretations to demonstrate the existence of a 280-km-long, western extension ...
