The morphology of glacial valley can be described in terms of power law or quadratic equations fitted to valley cross-profiles. These two models are used to study the cross-profiles of 86 valley cross-profiles in the Zardkuh Mountain in order to understand the evolutional patterns of valleys. Assessment of using the power law function indicates that b values for both valley sides range from 1.0...

New high-resolution bathymetric data from Atlantis Massif and surrounding seafloor (30°N, Mid-Atlantic Ridge) records avolcanic extension associated with the formation of axial rift valley floor, following tectonic truncation an active corrugated oceanic detachment fault system. The truncated is tectonically uplifted by a high-angle valley-bounding normal fault, formed after westward migration ...

Stress accumulation rates along the primary segments of the San Andreas Fault system are computed using a three-dimensional (3-D) elastic half-space model with realistic fault geometry. The model is developed in the Fourier domain by solving for the response of an elastic halfspace due to a point vector body force and analytically integrating the force from a locking depth to infinite depth. Th...

The NNW-trending Dena Fault, with 140 km length, cuts the major structures of Zagros Fold-Thrust Belt in Borujen region. The fault has divided the region in two zones, in which different structural, andmorphological features as well assedimentation and seismtectonic characteristics have developed. This study presents a new interpretation for the kinematics of Dena Fault based on field evidence....

a field study was conducted in nine villages, three each from kupwara, handwara and karnah tehsils of kupwara district, to find out the nutritional value of feeds and fodders, existing feeding practices and nutritional status of dairy cattle. data was collected from the fifteen farm families from each of the nine were randomly selected through a common questionnaire. all the farmers were found ...

Stress inversion of seismological datasets became an essential tool to retrieve the stress field of active tectonics and volcanic areas. In particular, in volcanic areas, it is able to put constrains on volcano-tectonics and in general in a better understanding of the volcano dynamics. During the last decades, a wide range of stress inversion techniques has been proposed, some of them specifica...

The past four years, geophysics students and faculty from Colorado School of Mines and Boise State University have studied the subsurface in the Upper Arkansas Valley, Colorado, using a combination of geological and geophysical methods. Here, we present and integrate their results from seismic, self-potential and gravity data, as well as water temperature measurements in local wells to ascertai...
