Formation And Zonation Of Ferruginous Bauxite Deposits Of The Chapman Quadrangle, Oregon, Richard Charles Marty Jan 1983

Formation And Zonation Of Ferruginous Bauxite Deposits Of The Chapman Quadrangle, Oregon, Richard Charles Marty

Dissertations and Theses

Two major theories have been advanced to account for the scattered distribution of ferruginous bauxite deposits. Original workers proposed that ferruginous bauxite originally developed over all exposed Columbia River Basalt in western Oregon and was subsequently removed by erosion. Studies which followed have suggested that it may be locally favorable conditions, especially of drainage, which are responsible for deposit distribution. Field mapping in the Chapman Quadrangle shows a possible correlation between a series of sheared zones, which may have improved drainage, and the distribution of ferruginous bauxite deposits. Examination of the pisolitic zone ferruginous bauxite of the Chapman Quadrangle failed …

Contribution Of The Metal To The Differential Capacity Of An Ideally Polarisable Electrode, Jerry Goodisman, Jean Paul Badiali, Martin Luc Rosinberg Jan 1983

Contribution Of The Metal To The Differential Capacity Of An Ideally Polarisable Electrode, Jerry Goodisman, Jean Paul Badiali, Martin Luc Rosinberg

Chemistry - All Scholarship

We consider the response of the metal in the ideally polarisable electrode to charging of the electrode, using a model for the metal surface in contact with the solvent of the electrolyte phase previously presented by us in this journal. We show that the effect of the solvent on the electrons of the metal cannot be considered to be simply that of a repulsive barrier. When the electrode charge varies, qM(dip), the metal contribution to the double layer, is modified, implying a contribution which varies along the electrocapillary curve. By considering an electrostatic interaction between metal and solvent, we find …

Miocene Burrows Of Extinct Bear Dogs: Indication Of Early Denning Behavior Of Large Mammalian Carnivores, Robert M. Hunt Jr., Xue Xiang-Xu, Joshua Kaufman Jan 1983

Miocene Burrows Of Extinct Bear Dogs: Indication Of Early Denning Behavior Of Large Mammalian Carnivores, Robert M. Hunt Jr., Xue Xiang-Xu, Joshua Kaufman

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

Partial skeletons off our species of extinct carnivores have been found in their dens excavated in the floodplain of an early Miocene ephemeral braided stream at Agate Fossil Beds National Monument, Nebraska. Bear dogs (Carnivora: Amphicyonidae) were the principal occupants; their den dimensions and body size are similar to those of living wolves and hyenas. Discovery of this predator community extends the record of denning behavior of large mammalian carnivores to the early Miocene, 20 million years ago.


1/Z Expansion Calculation Of The Bethe Logarithm For The Ground State Lamb Shift Of Two-Electron Ions, S. P. Goldman, Gordon W. F. Drake Jan 1983

1/Z Expansion Calculation Of The Bethe Logarithm For The Ground State Lamb Shift Of Two-Electron Ions, S. P. Goldman, Gordon W. F. Drake

Physics Publications

The leading two terms in the 1/Z expansion of the two-electron Bethe logarithm are calculated by the application of a new finite basis set method. The results can be expressed in the form ln epsilon (1s 2 1S)=ln(19.77(Z-0.0063) 2). The high-Z behaviour appears to differ from that of a previous variational calculation by Aashamar and Austvik (1976).


Lifetime Of The 2p State In He Ii, Gordon W. F. Drake, J. Patel, A. Van Wijngaarden Jan 1983

Lifetime Of The 2p State In He Ii, Gordon W. F. Drake, J. Patel, A. Van Wijngaarden

Physics Publications

When a beam of spin-polarized metastable He+(2s12) ions is quenched by an electric field E', the emitted radiation intensity contains an asymmetry term proportional to (kE)(P'k×E), where P' is the spin-polarization vector and k is the direction of observation. The resulting asymmetry is nearly proportional to the level width of the 2p12 state in He+. The measured asymmetry 0.007 602 70.000 020 3 corresponds to a lifetime 2p=(0.99920.0026)×10-10 sec, in fair agreement with the theoretical value 2p=0.9972×10-10 sec. © 1983 The American Physical Society.

On The Theory Of Homogeneous Lipschitz Spaces And Campanato Spaces, Harvey Greenwald Jan 1983

On The Theory Of Homogeneous Lipschitz Spaces And Campanato Spaces, Harvey Greenwald

Mathematics

In this paper the equivalence between the Campanato spaces and homogeneous Lipschitz spaces is shown through the use of elementary and constructive means. These Lipschitz spaces can be defined in terms of derivatives as well as differences.


On The Disintegration Of Ice Shelves: The Role Of Fracture, Terence J. Hughes Jan 1983

On The Disintegration Of Ice Shelves: The Role Of Fracture, Terence J. Hughes

Earth Science Faculty Scholarship

Crevasses can be ignored in studying the dynamics of most glaciers because they are only about 20 m deep, a small fraction of ice thickness. In ice shelves, however, s urface crevasses 20 m deep often reach sealevel and bottom crevasses can move upward to sea-level (Clough, 1974; Weertman, 1980). The ice shelf is fractured completely through if surface and basal crevasses meet (Barrett, 1975; Hughes, 1979). This is especially likely if surface melt water fills surface crevasses (Weertman, 1973; Pfeffer, 1982; Fastook and Schmidt, 1982). Fracture may therefore play an important role i n the disintegration of ice shelves. …


Morphology And Dynamics Of The Rock Glaciers In Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica, Jon M. Hassinger, Paul Andrew Mayewski Jan 1983

Morphology And Dynamics Of The Rock Glaciers In Southern Victoria Land, Antarctica, Jon M. Hassinger, Paul Andrew Mayewski

Earth Science Faculty Scholarship

A baseline study of rock glaciers located in the ice-free valleys of southern Victoria Land, Antarctica, was performed in order to determine their usefulness as proxy tools in studies of climatic change. The distribution of the 32 rock glaciers identified in this analysis is principally attributed to site-specific controls including proximity to localized moisture sources and low ambient site temperature controlled by elevation, orientation, and topographic shading. The relative activity of rock glaciers and their vertical velocity profiles are inferred from termini morphology. Thirty-eight percent of the rock glaciers are stagnant, 41% show velocity decreasing rapidly with depth, and velocity …


Chemical Composition Of A High Altitude Fresh Snowfall In The Ladakh Himalayas, Paul Andrew Mayewski, William Berry Lyons, N Ahmad Jan 1983

Chemical Composition Of A High Altitude Fresh Snowfall In The Ladakh Himalayas, Paul Andrew Mayewski, William Berry Lyons, N Ahmad

Earth Science Faculty Scholarship

Studies of the chemical constituents in Antarctic and Greenland snow and ice cores have proven to be extremely useful for determining the composition of the atmosphere during past climatic events (Boutron and Delmas, 1980; Herron, 1982) and hence provide data concerning climatic change. Despite the potential for the collection of similar types of information from high altitude temperate glacier snow and ice cores, their study has been limited. In addition, unlike polar ice sheets, high altitude temperate glaciers are not only close to populated area but have higher accumulation rates. Owing to the latter, preservation of detailed records on sub-annual …


Ice Mass Fluctuations In Northernvictoria Land, Paul Andrew Mayewski Jan 1983

Ice Mass Fluctuations In Northernvictoria Land, Paul Andrew Mayewski

Earth Science Faculty Scholarship

[From the introduction] Rennick Glacier is one of the major ice drainages for the northern Victoria Land sector of East Antarctica. Unlike glaciers farther south along the Transantarctic Mountains, Rennick Glacier does not drain into the Ross Ice Shelf but flows directly into a seasonally ice-covered ocean. Therefore, current fluctuations of this glacier are unhampered by the dampening effects of the Ross Ice Shelf. The primary controls on the activity of this glacier and others in this region are mass balance and sea level.


Paleotemperature Oscillations In The Middle And Late Miocene Of The Northeastern Pacific, John A. Barron, Gerta Keller Jan 1983

Paleotemperature Oscillations In The Middle And Late Miocene Of The Northeastern Pacific, John A. Barron, Gerta Keller

United States Geological Survey: Staff Publications

The paleoclimatic and paleoceanographic history of the Middle and Late Miocene marginal eastern North Pacific as been studied in a north-to-south transect encompassing DSDP Site 173, the Newport Beach surface section, and DSDP Site 470, based on quantitative diatom and planktic foraminiferal analyses. Fourteen cold and 12 warm events that show close agreement with other microfossil studies as well as oxygen isotope records from low-latitude Pacific sites have been identified. Hiatuses are recognized at 7 to 6.5 Ma. 9.8 to 8.5 Ma, and 12 to 11 Ma at the three reference localities, and they correspond to widely recognized deep-sea hiatuses …

Theory Of Josephson-Type Oscillations In A Moving Charge-Density Wave, S. E. Barnes, A. Zawadowski

Physics Articles and Papers

A theory of Josephson-type phenomena is presented, in which the two macroscopic quantum states are the two components of an incommensurate charge-density wave with opposite wave vectors. The Fermi levels of these two states are split for a moving charge-density wave and impurity scattering induces quantum oscillations. Such oscillations may be responsible for the observed narrow-band noise in materials such as NbSe3 and TaS3.


Non-Mean-Field Interpretation Of The Irreversibility Line In Spin-Glasses, A. P. Malozemoff, S. E. Barnes, B. Barbara Jan 1983

Non-Mean-Field Interpretation Of The Irreversibility Line In Spin-Glasses, A. P. Malozemoff, S. E. Barnes, B. Barbara

Physics Articles and Papers

Susceptibility data on an amorphous GdAl spin-glass show an irreversibility onset line t=-A-H2/φ- and a susceptibility crossover line t=+A+H2/φ+ (t is reduced temperature; H is field). The exponents φ are both close to 3, and the amplitudes A differ only by a factor of 2. In contrast to earlier explanations of the irreversibility in terms of a de Almeida-Thouless mean-field instability, here both crossovers are explained in terms of a non-mean-field scaling theory.


Magnetic Resonance In The Spin-Glass (Lagd)Al2, M. Zomack, K. Baberschke, S. E. Barnes Jan 1983

Magnetic Resonance In The Spin-Glass (Lagd)Al2, M. Zomack, K. Baberschke, S. E. Barnes

Physics Articles and Papers

ESR has been measured in the spin-glass (La1-xGdx)Al2, 1≤x≤15 at.% for 1, 3, 9, and 35 GHz, corresponding to different applied magnetic fields and in the temperature range of 100 mK to 30 K. The comparison of data for different frequencies shows that the linewidth depends very much on the frequency and/or field and therefore the temperature Tmin of the linewidth minimum is not an intrinsic parameter and the shift of the resonance position is almost independent of frequency. The former effect is analyzed and theoretically explained in terms of the temperature dependence …


Γ8(3) Resonance In Esr Of (Ery)Al2 Single Crystals, U. Döbler, K. Baberschke, S. E. Barnes Jan 1983

Γ8(3) Resonance In Esr Of (Ery)Al2 Single Crystals, U. Döbler, K. Baberschke, S. E. Barnes

Physics Articles and Papers

Angle-dependent ESR results are given for 500-, 2500-, and 5000-ppm Er-doped YAl2 single crystals. An almost perfect analysis of the X- and Q-band data is achieved if the admixture of the first excited state Γ8(2) into the ground state Γ8(3) via the Zeeman interaction is taken into consideration. This enables us to determine the crystal electric field (CEF) parameter x=-0.322(20) and W=-0.29(2) K. The g-value shift yields N(EF)JΔg=+0.09(5) and the thermal broadening of the linewidth |N(EF)JΔH|=0.059(5). The precision of the experimental data allows, in principle, the determination …


Seedbed Preparation For Pasture Renovation, Harold B. Rice Jan 1983

Seedbed Preparation For Pasture Renovation, Harold B. Rice

Soil Science News and Views

In Kentucky renovation has come to mean the re-establishment of legumes in grass pastures and meadows. Many acres of grassland do not contain enough legumes to fill the amount of nitrogen needed and to improve the nutritional value of the forage. A good stand of white clover, for example, has the capacity to fix about 100 pounds of nitrogen per acre. Because of this, pastures containing around 40 percent clover can produce about as much meat or milk as grass pastures fertilized with 150 pounds of nitrogen per acre. For best results in seeding clovers into grass sods, fields should …

Geologic Descriptions And Coal Analyses For 1982 Coal Drilling In The Daniel Boone National Forest, Eastern Kentucky, Raymond R. Bergeron, James C. Cobb, Ernie R. Slucher, Richard A. Smath

Information Circular--KGS

This report contains core descriptions, lithologic logs, and analyses of coal from 21 stratigraphic test holes drilled in 1982 in the Daniel Boone National Forest, including the Redbird Purchase Unit, in eastern Kentucky.

The test holes ranged in depth from 85 to 1,988 feet and averaged about 700 feet. A total of 89 coal samples were analyzed. Results of analyses (on the as-received basis) showed the following ranges: ash, 2.37 to 28.8 percent; sulfur, 0.3 to 8.4 percent; and Btu, 9,017 to 14,550 per pound.


Limiting Swine Stress With Evaporative Cooling In The Southeast, Robert L. Fehr, K. T. Priddy, Samuel G. Mcneill, Douglas G. Overhults Jan 1983

Limiting Swine Stress With Evaporative Cooling In The Southeast, Robert L. Fehr, K. T. Priddy, Samuel G. Mcneill, Douglas G. Overhults

Biosystems and Agricultural Engineering Faculty Publications

Three-hourly weather data for 7 locations in the Southeast and Central United States were used to evaluate the feasibility of evaporative cooling for reducing swine stress. Stress was defined as a relationship between dry and wet bulb temperatures which exceeded a stress index of 85. This analysis indicates that properly installed evaporative coolers could reduce the number of hours that stress would occur in swine facilities from 89.6 to 96.4% depending on location.

Geological And Thermal Aspects Of The Southern San Joaquin Basin, California: Application Of The 40ar/39ar Stepwise Heating Technique To Detrital Microclines, Kenneth Bé

Geology Theses and Dissertations

The depositional history of the southernmost region of the trough-shaped San Joaquin Basin spans from Upper Eocene to Recent time. The stratigraphy reveals both a predominantly marine environment which persisted until the Upper Pliocene, as well as nonmarine environments along the basin's margins. Folds and faults within the basin have resulted directly from movements along the San Andreas fault. Although the exact time of origin of the Big Bend is unclear, this major feature in the San Andreas fault's geometry has played an important role in recent crustal tectonics of southern California. Significantly, the southern San Joaquin's depocenter has undergone …
