Journal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Like other perialpine basins and glaciated margins, the Geneva Basin in SW Switzerland is characterised by buried tunnel valleys, which are elongated incisions widely attributed to subglacial meltwater erosion beneath continental ice sheets. However, an inclusive understanding of the geological control on the evolution of the glacial landscape

Geophysical Monograph Series, Page i-xiv., 2021 Exploring the links between Large Igneous Provinces and dramatic environmental impact
An emerging consensus suggests that Large Igneous Provinces (LIPs) and Silicic LIPs (SLIPs) are a significant driver of dramatic global environmental and biological changes, including mass extinctions.

Evaluation and developmental studies of possible active seismic experiments during the post-Apollo period [PDF]
Seismic velocity studies pertinent to the lunar crust and mantle are briefly summarized. The compressional and shear wave velocities in loose aggregates are discussed along with the effects of temperature on seismic velocity in compacted powders ...

A Passive Low‐Frequency, High‐Sensitivity Diamagnetic Levitation Accelerometer
International Journal of Mechanical System Dynamics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Despite the great potential of diamagnetic levitation accelerometers in detecting low‐frequency and weak motion, there is still a demand to further enhance their sensitivity for geophysical and microgravity applications. In this study, a straightforward structural modulating approach is presented to enhance the sensitivity of diamagnetic ...

Synthesis of regional crust and upper-mantle structure from seismic and gravity data [PDF]
Available seismic and ground based gravity data are combined to infer the three dimensional crust and upper mantle structure in selected regions. This synthesis and interpretation proceeds from large-scale average models suitable for early comparison ...

The non-geometric ̄P S wave in high-resolution seismic data: observations and modelling [PDF]
, 2017 In data from a high-resolution seismic survey conducted over a near-surface environment consisting of homogeneous soft clay, we consistently observe a distinct seismic phase arriving between the direct compressional wave and the Rayleigh wave. This phase
