Reconstruction of eolian bed forms and paleocurrents from cross-bedded strata at Victoria Crater, Meridiani Planum, Mars [PDF]
Outcrop exposures imaged by the Opportunity rover at Victoria Crater, a 750 m diameter crater in Meridiani Planum, are used to delineate sedimentary structures and further develop a dune-interdune depositional model for the region.

Origin and significance of 'dispersed facies' basal ice: Svínafellsjökull, Iceland [PDF]
Dispersed facies basal ice - massive (i.e. structureless) ice with dispersed debris aggregates - is present at the margins of many glaciers and, as a product of internal glacial processes, has the potential to provide important information about the ...

Sulfate-rich eolian and wet interdune deposits, Erebus crater, Meridiani Planum, Mars [PDF]
This study investigates three bedrock exposures at Erebus crater, an ~ 300 m diameter crater approximately 4 km south of Endurance crater on Mars. These outcrops, called Olympia, Payson, and Yavapai, provide additional evidence in support of the dune ...

On mapping seafloor mineral deposits with central loop transient electromagnetics [PDF]
Electromagnetic methods are commonly employed in exploration for land-based mineral deposits. A suite of airborne, land, and borehole electromagnetic techniques consisting of different coil and dipole configurations have been developed over the last few ...

CO2 plume evolution in a depleted natural gas reservoir: Modeling of conformance uncertainty reduction over time [PDF]
Uncertainty in the long-term fate of CO2 injected for geologic carbon sequestration (GCS) is a significant barrier to the adoption of GCS as a greenhouse-gas emission-mitigation for industry and regulatory agencies alike. We present a modeling study that

Pushing the Limits of 3D Color Printing: Error Diffusion with Translucent Materials
Accurate color reproduction is important in many applications of 3D printing, from design prototypes to 3D color copies or portraits. Although full color is available via other technologies, multi-jet printers have greater potential for graphical 3D ...

Band alignment at metal/ferroelectric interfaces: insights and artifacts from first principles [PDF]
Based on recent advances in first-principles theory, we develop a general model of the band offset at metal/ferroelectric interfaces. We show that, depending on the polarization of the film, a pathological regime might occur where the metallic carriers ...

Seismic reflectivity of a carbon dioxide flux [PDF]
In the context of the geological storage of carbon dioxide (CO2), thecharacterization of the injected CO2 in a reservoir is of primeimportance for volume capacity evaluation and long-term siteperformance.

Ab Initio Calculation of Impurity Effects in Copper Oxide Materials [PDF]
We describe a method for calculating, within density functional theory, the electronic structure associated with typical defects which substitute for Cu in the CuO2 planes of high-Tc superconducting materials. The focus is primarily on Bi2Sr2CaCu2O8, the
