The Hidden History of the South‐Central Cascadia Subduction Zone Recorded on the Juan de Fuca Plate Offshore Southwest Oregon

open access: yesGeochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems, 2022
New seismic reflection data collected and processed as part of early career scientist training at sea and in classroom projects fill gaps in seismic coverage of the Cascadia subduction zone and provide new insights into anomalous subduction behavior and ...

Spatially limited mud turbidites on the Cascadia margin: segmented earthquake ruptures? [PDF]

open access: yesNatural Hazards and Earth System Sciences, 2013
A series of 23 thin, mostly mud-silt turbidites are found interspersed between larger, well-dated and regionally correlated paleoseismic sandy turbidites that extend along most of the Cascadia margin, northwestern United States.

Environmental Resource Management in Borderlands: Evolution from Competing Interests to Common Aversions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Great enthusiasm is attached to the emergence of cross-border regions (CBRs) as a new institutional arrangement for dealing with local cross-border environmental resource management and other issues that remain too distant from national capitals and/or ...

The Effect of Fore‐Arc Deformation on Shallow Earthquake Rupture Behavior in the Cascadia Subduction Zone

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2021
Within the fore‐arc of the Cascadia Subduction Zone, there are significant along‐strike differences in the orientation of splay faults, sediment consolidation, and fault roughness.

Applying Automatic Mapping Processing By GMT to Bathymetric and Geophysical Data: Cascadia Subduction Zone, Pacific Ocean

open access: yesJournal of Environmental Geography, 2020
The Cascadia Trench is stretching along the convergent plate boundaries of Pacific Plate, North America Plate and Juan De Fuca Plate. It is an important geomorphological structural feature in the north-east Pacific Ocean.

Mapping Mantle Flows and Slab Anisotropy in the Cascadia Subduction Zone

open access: yesGeophysical Research Letters, 2023
The Cascadia margin is an unusual subduction zone characterized by the downdip movement of young and thin oceanic plates, where mantle flow and intraslab deformation are still unclear. Here we present new anisotropic tomography of the Cascadia subduction

Distribution of Methane Plumes on Cascadia Margin and Implications for the Landward Limit of Methane Hydrate Stability

open access: yesFrontiers in Earth Science, 2021
Nearly 3,500 methane bubble streams, clustered into more than 1,300 methane emission sites, have been identified along the US Cascadia margin, derived both from archived published data and 2011, 2016–2018 dedicated multibeam surveys using co-registered ...

Seismicity relocation and fault structure near the Leech River Fault Zone, southern Vancouver Island [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Relatively low rates of seismicity and fault loading have made it challenging to correlate microseismicity to mapped surface faults on the forearc of southern Vancouver Island.

Wave Energy Converter Annual Energy Production Uncertainty Using Simulations

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2016
Critical to evaluating the economic viability of a wave energy project is: (1) a robust estimate of the electricity production throughout the project lifetime and (2) an understanding of the uncertainty associated with said estimate.

Mark-recapture estimates suggest declines in abundance of common bottlenose dolphin stocks in the main Hawaiian Islands

open access: yesEndangered Species Research, 2021
Species conservation relies on understanding population demographics, yet this information is lacking for many species and populations. Four stocks of common bottlenose dolphins Tursiops truncatus inhabiting the waters surrounding the main Hawaiian ...
