Sources of nutrients to windward agricultural systems in pre-contact Hawai'i
Prior to European contact in 1778, Hawaiians developed intensive irrigated pondfield agricultural systems in windward Kohala, Hawai'i. We evaluated three potential sources of nutrients to windward systems that could have ... -
Stable isotopic composition of deep-sea gorgonian corals Primnoa spp.: a new archive of surface processes
The deep-sea gorgonian coral Primnoa spp. live in the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans at depths of 65 to 3200 m. They have an arborescent growth form with a skeletal axis composed of annual rings made from calcite and gorgonin. ... -
Stratigraphic model for glacial-eustatic Pennsylvanian cyclothems in highstand nearshore detrital regimes
Lower (distal) positions on gently sloping shelves (ramps) affected by Pennsylvanian glacial-eustatic sea-level fluctuation display classic marine transgressive-regressive cyclothems, which are separated by exposure surfaces ... -
Using small, temporary seismic networks for investigating tectonic deformation: Brittle deformation and evidence for strike-slip faulting in Bhutan
We processed data from a small, five-station temporary seismic network deployed from January 2002 until March 2003 within the Kingdom of Bhutan. We detected, associated, and located approximately 2,100 teleseismic, regional, ...
