rock expands soil surface Sierra Nevada
2019/10/18
A University of Wyoming researcher and his team have discovered that weathering of subsurface rock in the southern Sierra Nevada Mountains of California is due more to rocks expanding than to chemical...
Breccia of Frog Lakes:reconstructing Triassic volcanism and subduction initiation in the east-central Sierra Nevada, California
Subduction Initiation Sierran Magmatic Arc Saddlebag Lake Pendant,
2015/1/16
The Antler and Sonoma orogenies occurred along the southwest-trending passive Pacific margin of North America during the Paleozoic concluding with the accretion of the McCloud Arc. A southeast-trendin...
Influence of lithology on hillslope morphology and response to tectonic forcing in the northern Sierra Nevada of California
Influence of lithology hillslope morphology response to tectonic forcing the northern Sierra Nevada of California
2014/5/20
Many geomorphic studies assume that bedrock geology is not a first-order control on landscape form in order to isolate drivers of geomorphic change (e.g., climate or tectonics). Yet underlying geology...
Record of magma chamber processes preserved in accessory mineral assemblages, Aztec Wash pluton, Nevada
Record magma chamber processes preserved accessory mineral assemblages Aztec Wash pluton
2012/4/1
Field relations and geochemistry indicate that Aztec Wash pluton had a complex, open-system
history. The tilted pluton represents a 2.5 km thick chamber that was recharged with both felsic and
mafic...

2011/12/29
The clay mineralogy of tuffs from Yucca Mountain, Nevada, the potential site of the nation's first high-level radioactive waste repository, has been studied in order to understand the alteration histo...
Detection of Trace Amounts of Erionite Using X-ray Powder Diffraction: Erionite in Tuffs of Yucca Mountain, Nevada, and Central Turkey
Clinoptilolite Detection limits Erionite Profile refinement X-ray powder diffraction Zeolitic tuffs
2012/1/4
Recent data in the biological literature suggest that the natural zeolite erionite may be more tumorigenic than asbestos minerals. Because of its potential biological importance, a technique has been ...
