The core shadow zone boundary and lateral variations of the P velocity structure of the lowermost mantle
(Elsevier, 1989-04-01)
The recent determination of high-quality, short-period P-wave amplitude profiles near the core shadow zone for three source-receiver combinations allows an exploration of lateral variations in P velocity structure at the ...
Source process of the great 1971 Solomon Islands doublet
(Elsevier, 1989-09)
Large underthrusting earthquakes in the Solomon Islands tend to occur as multiplets, separated by a few hours to several days in time and 30-100 km in space. The largest sequence, a doublet on July 14, 1971 (Mw = 8.0) and ...
Inference of ground surface temperature history from subsurface temperature data: Interpreting ensembles of borehole logs
(Birkhäuser-Verlag; Birkhäuser Verlag ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1996-08)
Ground surface temperature histories (GSTHs) inferred from borehole temperaturedepth ( T-z ) data are often degraded, to a various extent, by random or systematic noise in the T-z data and in the measurements of thermophysical ...
Ultra-Low Frequency Standing Alfven Waves: Global Magnetospheric Modeling of Resonant Wave-Wave Interactions.
(2016)
Alfven waves are an important energy transport modality in the collisionless plasmas that dominate Earth's magnetosphere. While wave-particle interactions are well understood, the mechanisms that govern wave-wave interactions ...
Introduction to “tsunamis: 1992–94”
(Birkhäuser-Verlag; Birkhäuser Verlag ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-09)
Introduction to subduction zones
(Birkhäuser-Verlag; Birkhäuser Verlag ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1988-09)
Stable Eocene Magnetization Carried by Magnetite and Iron Sulphides in Marine Marls (Pamplona-Arguis Formation, Southern Pyrenees, Northern Spain)
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; StudiaGeo s.r.o. ; Springer Science+Business Media, 2003-04)
In order to establish the magnetic carriers and assess the reliability of previous paleomagnetic results obtained for Eocene marine marls from the south Pyrenean basin, we carried out a combined paleo- and rock-magnetic ...
Analysis of seismological and tsunami data from the 1993 Guam earthquake
(Birkhäuser-Verlag; Birkhäuser Verlag ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-09)
The fault parameters of the Guam earthquake of August 8, 1993 are estimated from seismological analyses, and the possibility of identifying the actual fault plane from tsunami waveforms is tested. The Centroid Moment Tensor ...
The electron heating rate and ion chemistry in the thermosphere above Wallops Island during the solar eclipse of 7 March 1970
(Elsevier, 1972-04)
An identical pair of thermosphere probes measured the N2 concentration and temperature, the ion composition and concentrations and the electron temperature up to 290 km about 30 min and 5 min before totality during the 7 ...
On the development of baroclinic waves influenced by friction and heating
(Birkhäuser-Verlag; Birkhäuser Verlag ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1967-12)
The influence of surface skin friction and a specific type of heating on the stability of baroclinic waves in a two-level, quasi-geostrophic model is investigated. It is found that the effect of friction alone changes the ...
