Small watershed studies: Analytical approaches for understanding ecosystem response to environmental change Small watershed studies: Analytical approaches for understanding ecosystem response to environmental change
Biogeochemical studies in small watersheds provide an analytical approach to understand how ecosystems respond to natural climatic variations and human-induced environmental change. Small watersheds, usually less than 5 km2, are small enough to permit characterization and understanding of ecosystem processes within relatively simple, homogeneous biological and physical settings; yet they...

Seafloor environments in Cape Cod Bay, a large coastal embayment Seafloor environments in Cape Cod Bay, a large coastal embayment
Cape Cod Bay is a glacial, semi-enclosed embayment that has a patchy distribution of modern seafloor sedimentary environments of erosion or nondeposition, deposition, and sediment reworking. Sidescan-sonar records and supplemental bathymetric, sedimentary, subbottom, and physical-oceanographic data indicate that the characteristics and distribution of these three categories of bottom...

Three-dimensional models of deformation near strike-slip faults Three-dimensional models of deformation near strike-slip faults
We use three-dimensional elastic models to help guide the kinematic interpretation of crustal deformation associated with strike-slip faults. Deformation of the brittle upper crust in the vicinity of strike-slip fault systems is modeled with the assumption that upper crustal deformation is driven by the relative plate motion in the upper mantle. The driving motion is represented by...

Oxygen transport and pyrite oxidation in unsaturated coal-mine spoil Oxygen transport and pyrite oxidation in unsaturated coal-mine spoil
An understanding of the mechanisms of oxygen (02) transport in unsaturated mine spoil is necessary to design and implement effective measures to exclude 02 from pyritic materials and to control the formation of acidic mine drainage. Partial pressure of oxygen (Po2) in pore gas, chemistry of pore water, and temperature were measured at different depths in unsaturated spoil at two...
