Variability in effective moisture inferred from inclusion fluid δ18O and δ2H values in a central Sierra Nevada stalagmite (CA)
The oxygen isotopic composition of stalagmites is widely used to infer regional changes in
terrestrial surface temperatures and precipitation dynamics. The stalagmite δ 18 O values …

Eocene–Early Miocene paleotopography of the Sierra Nevada–Great Basin–Nevadaplano based on widespread ash-flow tuffs and paleovalleys
The distribution of Cenozoic ash-flow tuffs in the Great Basin and the Sierra Nevada of
eastern California (United States) demonstrates that the region, commonly referred to as the …

Rapid middle Miocene collapse of the Mesozoic orogenic plateau in north-central Nevada
The modern Sierra Nevada and Great Basin were likely the site of a high-elevation orogenic
plateau well into Cenozoic time, supported by crust thickened during Mesozoic shortening …

Seasonality of precipitation in the southwestern United States during the late Pleistocene inferred from stable isotopes in herbivore tooth enamel
The late Pleistocene was a climatically dynamic period, with abrupt shifts between cool-wet
and warm-dry conditions. Increased effective precipitation supported large pluvial lakes and …
