Frictional behavior of talc-calcite mixtures [PDF]

, 2015
Faults involving phyllosilicates appear weak when compared to the laboratory-derived strength of most crustal rocks. Among phyllosilicates, talc, with very low friction, is one of the weakest minerals involved in various tectonic settings.

The importance of science communication and public engagement to professional associations

Anatomical Sciences Education, EarlyView.
Scientists have gathered in professional associations to promote science to the public. The American Association for Anatomy (AAA) has invested resources in programs to promote anatomical sciences to the public (high school level via the Anato‐Bee; all levels via Anatomy nights) and train scientists how to talk to the public (SciComm Bootcamp ...

Late Cenozoic metamorphic evolution and exhumation of Taiwan [PDF]

, 2007
The Taiwan mountain belt is composed of a Cenozoic slate belt (Hsuehshan Range units, HR, and Backbone Slates, BS) and of accreted polymetamorphic basement rocks (Tananao Complex, TC).

Usage of the term provenance in LIS literature: An Annual Review of Information Science and Technology (ARIST) paper

Journal of the Association for Information Science and Technology, EarlyView.
Abstract Provenance is the story of how something has come to be. In this paper, we provide a systematic literature review to categorize the various notions of provenance in Information Sciences. The goal of this review is to paint a broader picture of the multiple uses of provenance at play and to enhance our understanding of the importance of ...

Deformation of continental crust along a transform boundary, Coast Mountains, British Columbia [PDF]

, 2010
New structural, paleomagnetic, and apatite (U-Th)/He results from the continental margin inboard of the Queen Charlotte fault (~54°N) delineate patterns of brittle faulting linked to transform development since ~50 Ma.

A typology of schools across the four nations of the United Kingdom: Class, race and geography

British Educational Research Journal, EarlyView.
Abstract In this paper we analyse the hierarchical field of schools across the United Kingdom during the transition to university and suggest that there are five socially distinct clusters of schools. Our five‐cluster typology of UK schools is composed of an established group of elite private and state schools, schools for the white rural and suburban ...

Wetlands as environments of early human occupation: A new classification for freshwater palaeowetlands

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
A new classification for inland freshwater palaeowetlands to be used in the field or core laboratory by sedimentologists, providing examples from the Guadix Basin (southern Spain). Abstract Present wetlands have proven to be delicate, biodiverse ecosystems, that are natural sinks for CO2 and act as good indicators for climate changes.

Scale-dependent influence of pre-existing basement shear zones on rift faulting : a case study from NE Brazil [PDF]

, 2013
Rifting of continental crust initiates faults that are commonly influenced by pre-existing structures. We document newly identified faults cutting Precambrian units in the interior of the NE Brazilian margin to assess the effects of structural ...

Fate of wastewater nitrogen upon injection into a coastal saline groundwater system, Florida Keys, USA

The Depositional Record, EarlyView.
Despite advanced wastewater treatment, dilution by rainwater and mixing, and microbial modification, nitrogen nutrients derived from shallowly injected wastewater are detected in nearshore waters in the Florida Keys. Abstract Injection of treated wastewater into the shallow subsurface on islands and along coastlines is a common practice in areas like ...
