Book Synopsis Structural Analysis of the Tablerock Thrust Sheet, Grandfather Mountain Window, Northwestern North Carolina by : Ann Elizabeth Walker
Download or read book Structural Analysis of the Tablerock Thrust Sheet, Grandfather Mountain Window, Northwestern North Carolina written by Ann Elizabeth Walker and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 94 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Tablerock thrust sheet is exposed along the southwestern margin of Grandfather Mountain window in northwestern North Carolina, where it separates basement and cover rocks inside the window from basement thrust sheets of the overriding Blue Ridge-Piedmont megathrust sheet. It is a complex of footwall-derived horses of rifted-margin metasedimentary rocks, including Neoproterozoic to Early Cambrian Chilhowee Group quartzite and phyllite, and Shady Dolomite. Penetrative deformation throughout the Tablerock thrust sheet is defined by an extensively transposed foliation, and strong colinearity between well developed transport lineations and SE/NW-trending tight, isoclinal, and sheath folds. Centimeter- to meter-scale sheath folds are common throughout the interior of the thrust sheet, and not just within fault zones. NE-trending/NW-vergent crenulations and mesoscale open folds overprint these fabric elements, and represent one to two later phases of deformation. The strong colinearity between transport lineations and the hinges of tight to isoclinal folds, prevalence of mesoscale sheath folds, and outcrop patterns on Bryant and Reed’s 1970 map suggest SE/NW-trending megascopic folds at Linville Falls waterfall, Woodlawn quarry, and in the Linville Gorge Wilderness Area are map-scale sheath folds. Deformation temperatures estimated from metamorphic mineral assemblages, quartz lattice-preferred orientations, dynamic recrystallization microstructures, feldspar deformation microstructures, and the opening angles of quartz [c]-axis fabrics indicate the Tablerock thrust sheet reached 550–595 °C during lower–middle amphibolite facies conditions, and was later overprinted by upper greenschist to lower amphibolite facies conditions at 465–550 °C. These estimates are at least 120 °C higher than all previously reported temperatures, and are consistent with a model in which the Tablerock thrust sheet was significantly deformed during coupled transport with the Blue Ridge-Piedmont megathrust sheet prior to being emplaced at its present location.

Download or read book Counselor written by Ted Sorensen and published by Harper Collins. This book was released on 2008-05-06 with total page 582 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this gripping memoir, John F. Kennedy's closest advisor recounts in full for the first time his experience counseling Kennedy through the most dramatic moments in American history. Sorensen returns to January 1953, when he and the freshman senator from Massachusetts began their extraordinary professional and personal relationship. Rising from legislative assistant to speechwriter and advisor, the young lawyer from Nebraska worked closely with JFK on his most important speeches, as well as his book Profiles in Courage. Sorensen encouraged the junior senator's political ambitions—from a failed bid for the vice presidential nomination in 1956 to the successful presidential campaign in 1960, after which he was named Special Counsel to the President. Sorensen describes in thrilling detail his experience advising JFK during some of the most crucial days of his presidency, from the decision to go to the moon to the Cuban Missile Crisis, when JFK requested that the thirty-four-year-old Sorensen draft the key letter to Khrushchev at the most critical point of the world's first nuclear confrontation. After Kennedy was assassinated, Sorensen stayed with President Johnson for a few months before leaving to write a biography of JFK. In 1968 he returned to Washington to help run Robert Kennedy's presidential campaign. Through it all, Sorensen never lost sight of the ideals that brought him to Washington and to the White House, working tirelessly to promote and defend free, peaceful societies. Illuminating, revelatory, and utterly compelling, Counselor is the brilliant, long-awaited memoir from the remarkable man who shaped the presidency and the legacy of one of the greatest leaders America has ever known.
