Abstract Understanding the spatial structure of extreme floods is critical both for reliable design flood estimation and for coordinated development of regional response and flood mitigation strategies. Yet, analysis of rare, high‐magnitude floods is challenged by the limited sample size.

International audience[1] The mineralogy and grain-size distribution of the Fe-Ti oxide population of the Old Crow tephra bed, outcropping at the Halfway House loess deposit in central Alaska, are characterized through multiple low-and high-temperature ...

Incorporating Non‐Seismicity Precursors Into Earthquake Probabilistic Forecasting Model
Abstract To test whether geophysical anomalies contribute to earthquake forecasts beyond the inherent clustering effects in seismicity, we develop a self and external excitation point‐process model by incorporating anomalies into the temporal Epidemic‐Type Aftershock Sequence (ETAS) model.

Paleomagnetic Evidence for Post-Devonian Displacement of the Avalon Platform (Newfoundland) [PDF]
The possibility that the Avalon Platform, where the Avalonian lithotectonic belt is best developed, was involved in late Paleozoic displacement was tested by paleomagnetic study of red sandstones of the Upper Devonian Terrenceville Formation of eastern ...

The Steens Basalt, now considered part of the Columbia River Basalt Group (CRBG), contains the earliest eruptions of this magmatic episode. Lava flows of the Steens Basalt cover about 50,000 km2 of the Oregon Plateau in sections up to 1000 m thick.

Slow True Polar Wander Around Varying Equatorial Axes Since 320 Ma
True polar wander (TPW), the rotation of the solid Earth relative to the spin axis, is driven by changes in the Earth's moment of inertia induced by mantle convection and may have influenced past climate and life. Long‐term TPW is typically inferred from

Statistics of the geomagnetic secular variation for the past 5Ma [PDF]
A new statistical model is proposed for the geomagnetic secular variation over the past 5Ma. Unlike previous models, the model makes use of statistical characteristics of the present day geomagnetic field.

A New View of Long-Term Geomagnetic Field Secular Variation
This study carries out a statistical analysis of high-resolution PSV records for the last ~70 ka from three different regions of the Earth. We consider directional and intensity variability in each region on time scales of 103-105 years in order to ...

Deccan volcanism at the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary [PDF]
The accuracy with which one can claim that Deccan trap volcanism occurred at the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary (KTB) over a very short time interval is of key importance in deciding whether a volcanic origin of the KTB events should be taken seriously. In
