3000 Years of Environmental Change at Zaca Lake, California, Usa
(2014)Climatic variations of the last few millennia can reveal patterns of variability beyond that recorded by the instrumental record. In this study we use pollen and sediments to generate a high resolution 3000 year record of ... -

Active faults and associated tectonic stress in the Coso Range, California
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1981)The Coso Range contains faults that have been active in the Holocene. Some of these faults have moved about 100 years ago, possibly with the 1872 Owens Valley earthquake. Exploratory trenches exposed offsets up to 3.4 ... -

High Resolution Paleolake-Level and Paleoclimate Reconstruction from Integrated Geologic, Glacial, Tectonic, and Hydrologic Modeling of the south-eastern Sierra Nevada
(2020)A new approach to developing a continuous paleolake-level curve for Owens Lake in the south-eastern Sierra Nevada during last 50,000 years integrates lake-core data and shoreline geomorphology with wind-wave and sediment ... -

Quarternary geology of the central Truckee Meadows, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1975)On the basis of their physical and statistical characteristics four units of unconsolidated sediments have been established as Quaternary and Holocene deposits within the Central Truckee Meadows area. A zone of weathering ... -

Scarp degradation and fault history south of Carson City, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1979)Examination of faults south of Carson City indicates that scarps erode more rapidly in non-indurated alluvium and that Pleistocene soils, developed on older scarps, prevent scarp degradation and result in faults with steeper ...
