  • Fluid Distribution Along the Nankai-Trough Megathrust Fault off the Kii Peninsula

    Inferred from Receiver Function Analysis

    by Takeshi Akuhara ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    This thesis explores fluid distribution along the Nankai-Trough megathrust fault around the Kii Peninsula of Japan, where devastating earthquakes are expected to occur in the near future. Exploring fluid distribution along subduction zones is an important issue because the fluid is considered to control the occurrence of earthquakes. One of the effective strategies to estimate fluid content is ... Read more

    Theory and Practice

    by Herbert Lichtenegger, Bernhard Hofmann-Wellenhof, James Collins ...
    This book is dedicated to Dr. Benjamin William Remondi for many reasons. The project of writing a Global Positioning System (GPS) book was con ceived in April 1988 at a GPS meeting in Darmstadt, Germany. Dr. Remondi discussed with me the need for an additional GPS textbook and suggested a possible joint effort. In 1989, I was willing to commit myself to such a project. Unfortunately, the timing ...

  • Diversity, Biomineralization and Rock Magnetism of Magnetotactic Bacteria

    by Wei Lin ...
    Series series Earth and Environmental Science (R0)
    Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) synthesize intracellular nano-sized minerals of magnetite and/or greigite magnetosomes for magnetic orientation. They play important roles in global iron cycling and sedimentary magnetism, and have a broad range of potential applications in both biotechnological and biomedical fields. However, because the majority of MTB in nature remain unculturable, our understanding ... Read more
