Book excerpt: With the growing recognition during the last two centuries that the Earth has an immense age and processes over long periods of time have changed the morphology and composition of the Earth's crust, geologists have become increasingly interested in determination of absolute ages. A rela tive geochronology was established on the basis of the lithostratigraphic and biostratigraphic principles developed during the last century. With the discovery of radioactivity, the basis for a new geoscientific discipline - geochronology - was established (Rutherford 1906). It is the study of geological time, based mainly on the time signatures provided by the isotopic composition in geologic materials. The isotopic signature in a rock yields more information than that provided by the geochemical signature alone because it reflects the origin and history of the element in the rock. The aim of geochronology is to calibrate and standardize chronostrati graphic scales, to develop geological time scales that have a sensitive or at least useful resolution in order to place the geological events in the correct chronological order, and to assign their proper time spans. In practice, the application of geochronology is much wider because the data in the "natural archives" often provide information on the origin, genesis, and history of the materials. This, of course, requires an understanding of the geochemical behavior of the substances involved.

Book Synopsis Statistical Considerations in High Precision U-Pb Geochronology, with an Application to the Tectonic Evolution of the North Cascades, Washington by : Noah Morgan McLean
Download or read book Statistical Considerations in High Precision U-Pb Geochronology, with an Application to the Tectonic Evolution of the North Cascades, Washington written by Noah Morgan McLean and published by . This book was released on 2012 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The range of geologic problems that may be addressed by U-Pb geochronology is governed by the precision to which U-Pb dates can be measured, expressed as their estimated uncertainties. Accurate and precise knowledge of both the value and uncertainty of an isotopic date are imperative to its correct interpretation. This thesis focuses on quantitatively addressing the large volume of information that contributes to the calculation of published high-precision U-Pb dates. A new algorithm (Chapter 2) outlines the equations that transform measured isotope ratios, along with a host of laboratory and instrumental parameters, into a U-Pb date. The algorithm propagates all known random and systematic uncertainties, resulting in an adaptable framework will remain usable as analytical and computational advances change the main uncertainty contributions. The data reduction and uncertainty propagation algorithm, as well as a new method for calculating weighted means that correctly treats systematic uncertainties, have been incorporated into the open-source software program U-PbRedux. Chapter 3 explores the mechanisms of isotopic fractionation, the largest instrumental correction to measured U-Pb data, using a new linear regression algorithm. The algorithm rapidly regresses a straight line through large datasets in multiple dimensions using a novel simplification to the maximum likelihood objective equation, and is used to demonstrate that Pb undergoes mass-independent fractionation in the source of a thermal ionization mass spectrometer. Chapter 4 addresses the largest source of systematic uncertainty considered when confederating datasets from different labs, the calibration of the tracer used for isotope dilution. The calibration assumes only first-principles mass and purity measurements traceable to SI units, then defines a measurement model that utilizes>105 measurements in a series of overdetermined inverse problems to estimate the tracer isotopic composition. The result is a reduction by a factor of almost four in the tracer uncertainty contribution to a U-Pb date. In Chapter 5, I use the new algorithms to explore regional geology. High-precision U-Pb dates from the metamorphic core of the North Cascades and from ash beds in three fluvial basins that flank it show that Eocene magmatism, solid-state deformation, and exhumation of the metamorphic core are coincident with rapid basin subsidence.

This book was released on 2004-12-03 with total page 653 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book focuses on two complementary time-scales, the Holocene (approximately the last 11,500 years) and the last glacial-interglacial cycle (approximately the last 130,000 years) to synthesize evidence of climate variability at the regional and continental scale across Europe and Africa. This is the first examination of historical climate variations at such a scale, and thus sets a benchmark for future research.
Book Synopsis Tectonic Geomorphology by : Douglas W. Burbank
Download or read book Tectonic Geomorphology written by Douglas W. Burbank and published by John Wiley & Sons. This book was released on 2011-11-02 with total page 494 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Tectonic geomorphology is the study of the interplay between tectonic and surface processes that shape the landscape in regions of active deformation and at time scales ranging from days to millions of years. Over the past decade, recent advances in the quantification of both rates and the physical basis of tectonic and surface processes have underpinned an explosion of new research in the field of tectonic geomorphology. Modern tectonic geomorphology is an exceptionally integrative field that utilizes techniques and data derived from studies of geomorphology, seismology, geochronology, structure, geodesy, stratigraphy, meteorology and Quaternary science. While integrating new insights and highlighting controversies from the ten years of research since the 1st edition, this 2nd edition of Tectonic Geomorphology reviews the fundamentals of the subject, including the nature of faulting and folding, the creation and use of geomorphic markers for tracing deformation, chronological techniques that are used to date events and quantify rates, geodetic techniques for defining recent deformation, and paleoseismologic approaches to calibrate past deformation. Overall, this book focuses on the current understanding of the dynamic interplay between surface processes and active tectonics. As it ranges from the timescales of individual earthquakes to the growth and decay of mountain belts, this book provides a timely synthesis of modern research for upper-level undergraduate and graduate earth science students and for practicing geologists.
