Download or read book The Ross Orogen of the Transantarctic Mountains written by Edmund Stump and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 1995-03-31 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Ross Orogen of the Transantarctic Mountains is the part of the orogenic system that formed at the Pacific continental margin of present-day Antarctica. According to a recent hypothesis, this continental margin was created by the rifting and subsequent drift of Laurentia from Gondwana. With an unparalleled breadth and depth of information, this book provides a detailed synthesis of the history of the Ross orogen. In doing so, it incorporates classical studies with discussions of the most recent and controversial research from the international community. The book also includes a comprehensive bibliography and a historical chronology of all expeditions that have worked on the Ross orogen in the Transantarctic Mountains, from the first sightings by Ross in 1840 right up to the present day. This review of the Ross orogen of the Transantarctic Mountains will be valuable to all geologists interested in these episodes in the Earth's history, and to researchers of the geology of Antarctica.

Download or read book Geology and Geophysics of Marie Byrd Land, Northern Victoria Land, and Oates Coast written by Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe and published by Hannover : Bundesanstalt für Geowissenschaften und Rohstoffe. This book was released on 2003 with total page 244 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The seventh German Antarctic North Victoria Land Expedition (GANOVEX VII) took place in the austral summer of 1992/93. Geological and geophysical investigations were carried out on both sides of the Ross Sea: on King Edward VII Peninsula, northwestern Marie Byrd Land, in the east, and in northern Victoria Land and the adjacent Oates Coast in the west. Apatite fission-track data from the Alexandra and Rockefeller Mountains on Edward VII Peninsula indicate that the thermal history of the eastern rift flank of northern Victoria Land was different from that of the western rift shoulder. Tectonic and isostatic control factors on the landscape evolution of the coastal mountains of northern Victoria Land and their relationship to the Ross Sea rift are discussed in one paper of this volume. Regional metamorphic rocks appear on both sides of the Ross Sea. They were affected by the Ross orogeny and are related to the formation of the Gondwana supercontinent. The type and degree of metamorphism of the Early Palaeozoic regional metamorphic rocks of the Swanson Formation in westernmost Marie Byrd Land were studied and compared with metamorphic rocks in northern Victoria Land and on South Island, New Zealand. A paper deals with the origin of the amphibolites in the Priestley Formation of the Wilson Terrane of northern Victoria Land. The composition of the volcanic parent rocks of the Bowers Terrane metamorphic rocks in northern Victoria Land and their plate tectonic setting are discussed in another paper. The gravity measurements of previous GANOVEX expeditions were continued in Victoria Land between Brimstone Peak and Coulman Island, south of Lillie Marleen Hut, and in the Oates Coast region. Two-dimensional models are used to interpret the data obtained along two profiles from the polar plateau to the coast.

Download or read book The Transantarctic Mountains written by Gunter Faure and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2010-09-21 with total page 812 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a summary of the geology of the Transantarctic Mountains for Earth scientists who may want to work there or who need an overview of the geologic history of this region. In addition, the properties of the East Antarctic ice sheet and of the meteorites that accumulate on its surface are treated in separate chapters. The presentation ends with the Cenozoic glaciation of the Transantarctic Mountains including the limnology and geochemical evolution of the saline lakes in the ice-free valleys. • The subject matter in this book is presented in chronological order starting about 750 million years ago and continuing to the present time. • The chapters can be read selectively because the introduction to each chapter identifies the context that gives relevance to the subject matter to be discussed. • The text is richly illustrated with 330 original line drawings as well as with 182 color maps and photographs. • The book contains indexes of both subject matter and of authors’ names that allow it to be used as an encyclopedia of the Transantarctic Mountains and of the East Antarctic ice sheet. • Most of the chapters are supplemented by Appendices containing data tables, additional explanations of certain phenomena (e.g., the formation and seasonal destruction of stratospheric ozone), and illustrative calculations (e.g., 38Cl dates of meteorites). • The authors have spent a combined total of fourteen field seasons between 1964 and 1995 doing geological research in the Transantarctic Mountains with logistical support by the US Antarctic Program. • Although Antarctica is remote and inaccessible, tens of thousands of scientists of many nationalities and their assistants have worked there and even larger numbers of investigators will work there in the future.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The beginning of the new millennium has been particularly devastating in terms of natural disasters associated with tectonic plate boundaries, such as earthquakes in Sumatra, Chile, Japan, Tahiti, and Nepal; the Indian Ocean and the Pacific Ocean tsunamis; and volcanoes in Indonesia, Chile, Iceland that have produced large quantities of ash causing major disruption to aviation. In total, half a million people were killed by such natural disasters. These recurring events have increased our awareness of the destructive power of natural hazards and the major risks associated with them. While we have come a long way in the search for understanding such natural phenomena, and although our knowledge of Earth dynamics and plate tectonics has improved enormously, there are still fundamental uncertainties in our understanding of natural hazards. Increased understanding is crucial to improve our capacity for hazard prediction and mitigation. Volume highlights include: Main concepts associated with tectonic plate boundaries Novel studies on boundary-related natural hazards Fundamental concepts that improve hazard prediction and mitigation Plate Boundaries and Natural Hazards will be a valuable resource for scientists and students in the fields of geophysics, geochemistry, plate tectonics, natural hazards, and climate science.
