Paleo-lakes in the western United States provide geomorphic and hydrologic records of
climate and drainage-basin change at multiple time scales extending back to the Miocene …

A new model for the earliest stages in the evolution of subduction zones is developed from
recent geologic studies of the Izu-Bonin-Mariana (IBM) arc system and then applied to Late …

All normal-fault systems must terminate both along and orthogonal to strike. As many as four
terminations may be associated with a single culmination. Most normalfault systems …

The crust of the Great Basin has occupied a range of tectonic settings through geologic time.
Archean and Paleoproterozoic crustal genesis preceded residence of Laurentia within the …

The US Cordillera is typical of orogenic belts in its preservation of multiple episodes of
extensional, strike-slip, and compressional deformation. Widespread, latest Proterozoic …

Northwestern Nevada and southeastern Oregon have the largest uranium (U) deposits in
Tertiary volcanic rocks in the US. Most deposits are in or adjacent to calderas or rhyolite lava …

We investigate the distribution of active deformation in the northern Basin and Range
province using data from continuous GPS (CGPS) networks, supplemented by additional …

Mineral maps based on Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) data were
used to study late Miocene advanced argillic alteration at Cuprite, Nevada. Distributions of …

Estimates of the depth to the Curie temperature isotherm in Nevada are in accordance with
other regional geologic and geophysical information and together can be explained in the …

Surface rupture in the 2019 Ridgecrest, California, earthquake sequence occurred along
two orthogonal cross faults and includes dominantly left‐lateral and northeast‐striking …
