Mineral maps based on Airborne Visible/Infrared Imaging Spectrometer (AVIRIS) data were
used to study late Miocene advanced argillic alteration at Cuprite, Nevada. Distributions of …

The proposed high‐level radioactive waste repository at Yucca Mountain, Nevada, is
located within an active volcanic field. Probabilistic volcanic hazard models for future …

Understanding the evolution of basaltic volcanic fields is critical to our concepts of basaltic
magmatism and to volcanic risk assessment. We summarize physical volcanological …

Eruptive dynamics in basaltic volcanoes are controlled, in part, by the conduit geometry.
However, uncertainties in conduit shape and dike-to-conduit transition geometry have …

Abstract The Auckland Volcanic Field (AVF), which last erupted ca. 550 years ago, is a late
Quaternary monogenetic basaltic volcanic field (ca. 500 km 2) in the northern North Island of …

Paleozoic rocks in the northern Ruby Mountains were metamorphosed during Mesozoic
crustal shortening and Cenozoic magmatism, but equivalent strata in the southern Ruby …

The capture of vertically rising dikes by faults is examined with a combination of an analytic
solution, numerical simulations and field observations. One of the numerical solutions and …

The∼ 80 ka Lathrop Wells volcano (southern Nevada, USA) preserves evidence for a range
of explosive processes and emplacement mechanisms of pyroclastic deposits and lava …

Five Pleistocene basaltic volcanoes in Crater Flat (southern Nevada) demonstrate the
complexity of eruption processes associated with small-volume basalts, and the effects of …

Eruptions of topaz rhyolites are a distinctive part of the late Cenozoic magmatic history of
western North America. As many as 30 different eruptive centers have been identified in the …
