Pedimentation versus debris-flow origin of plateau-side desert terraces in southern Utah Pedimentation versus debris-flow origin of plateau-side desert terraces in southern Utah
Plateau-side terraces in arid areas around the world are commonly described as pediment remnants, although, in many cases, they may have been formed by debris-flow deposition. Pediments do exist in the area of the Aquarius and Kaiparowits Plateaus of southern Utah; however, many alluvial terraces that were classified by previous workers as pediments are actually formed of thick deposits...

Geomagnetic paleointensities from excursion sequences in lavas on Oahu, Hawaii Geomagnetic paleointensities from excursion sequences in lavas on Oahu, Hawaii
Paleomagnetic data demonstrating three late Tertiary excursions in the direction of the geomagnetic field recorded in sequences of basaltic lavas on the island of Oahu, Hawaii were published by R. R. Doell and G. B. Dalrymple in 1973. We have determined geomagnetic paleointensities by the Thelliers' method for 14 lavas from the three sites. During these experiments, considerable...

Book review: Geomagnetism of baked clays and recent sediments Book review: Geomagnetism of baked clays and recent sediments
This book is an outgrowth of the symposium entitled “Time Scales of Geomagnetic Secular Variations,” which was held at the 4th Assembly of the International Association of Geomagnetism and Aeronomy (Edinburgh, U.K., August 1981). The volume includes many of the papers presented, which described paleomagnetic results from both archeologic materials and Holocene geologic deposits, as well...

Landslides caused by earthquakes Landslides caused by earthquakes
Data from 40 historical world-wide earthquakes were studied to determine the characteristics, geologic environments, and hazards of landslides caused by seismic events. This sample of 40 events was supplemented with intensity data from several hundred United States earthquakes to study relations between landslide distribution and seismic parameters. Fourteen types of landslides were...

Transitional paleointensities from Kauai, Hawaii, and geomagnetic reversal models Transitional paleointensities from Kauai, Hawaii, and geomagnetic reversal models
Previously presented paleointensity results from an R-N transition zone in Kauai, Hawaii, show that field intensity dropped from 0. 431 Oe to 0. 101 Oe while the field remained within 30 degree of the reversed axial dipole direction. A recovery in intensity and the main directional change followed this presumably short period of low field strength. As the reversal neared completion, the...
