Dynamics of the North American continent
S U M M A R Y The forces that cause deformation of western North America have been debated for decades. Recent studies, primarily based on analysis of crustal stresses in the western United States, have suggested that the deformation of the region ismainly controlled by gravitational potential energy (GPE) variations and boundary loads, with basal tractions due to mantle flow playing a relative...
متن کاملjohn steinbeck: friend of the american common man
in his last years of life americans had almost forgotton steinbeck, and those who had not, occasionally criticized him for supporting and praising the u. s. military intervention in the vietnam war. althought ateinbeck incorporates different themes into his works, each one bears many signs of his concern and sympathy for america and the american common people in particular. steinbecks to a god ...
15 صفحه اولNorth American Dynamics Andwestern U.s. Tectonics
[1] Interest and controversy exist on the origin of forces that move and tectonically deform plates, especially regarding the relative importance of loads applied to the plate margins and base and those created internally (e.g., by elevated potential energy in uplifted regions). To quantify these loads, we evaluate predicted interplate stress through two-dimensional finite element analysis of t...
متن کاملThe dynamics of landscape change and snow geese in mid-continent North America
The Mid-Continent Population of the lesser snow goose, which breeds in the eastern and central Canadian Arctic and sub-Arctic, and winters in the southern United States and northern Mexico has increased 5–7% annually from the late 1960s to the mid-1990s, largely because of increased survival in response to an agricultural food subsidy. The rise in numbers complements the increased use of nitrog...
