Based on magnetostratigraphy, 14C ages and 230Th-231Pa excess extinction ages in a series of sedimentary cores raised from the Mendeleev and Lomonosov ridges by the R/V Polarstern, Healy and MV Xue Long ice-breakers, with chronological complementary information from pre-2000 studies, we have been able to estimate sedimentation rates ranging from less than a few mm/ka to a few cm/ka along these ridges, with the highest accumulation rates eastward, near the ice-factories of the Russian shelf.

  • Gondwana Breakup Via Double-Saloon-Door Rifting and Seafloor Spreading in a Backarc Basin During Subduction Rollback
    Available online at www.sciencedirect.com Tectonophysics 445 (2007) 245–272 www.elsevier.com/locate/tecto Gondwana breakup via double-saloon-door rifting and seafloor spreading in a backarc basin during subduction rollback A.K. Martin Repsol YPF Exploración, Al Fattan Plaza, PO Box 35700, Dubai, United Arab Emirates Received 2 February 2007; received in revised form 4 July 2007; accepted 21 August 2007 Available online 28 August 2007 Abstract A model has been developed where two arc-parallel rifts propagate in opposite directions from an initial central location during backarc seafloor spreading and subduction rollback. The resultant geometry causes pairs of terranes to simultaneously rotate clockwise and counterclockwise like the motion of double-saloon-doors about their hinges. As movement proceeds and the two terranes rotate, a gap begins to extend between them, where a third rift initiates and propagates in the opposite direction to subduction rollback. Observations from the Oligocene to Recent Western Mediterranean, the Miocene to Recent Carpathians, the Miocene to Recent Aegean and the Oligocene to Recent Caribbean point to a two-stage process. Initially, pairs of terranes comprising a pre-existing retro-arc fold thrust belt and magmatic arc rotate about poles and accrete to adjacent continents. Terrane docking reduces the width of the subduction zone, leading to a second phase during which subduction to strike-slip transitions initiate. The clockwise rotated terrane is caught up in a dextral strike-slip zone, whereas the counterclockwise rotated terrane is entrained in a sinistral strike-slip fault system. The likely driving force is a pair of rotational torques caused by slab sinking and rollback of a curved subduction hingeline.

  • 2014 Newsletter Draft
    DECEMBER 2014 ISSUE NO.8 Earth & Environmental Sciences A letter from the chair.... Dear friends, students, and alumni of Earth and Environmental Sciences, I wish you the warmest of holiday greetings. The EES department continues to be a vibrant academic community of highly talented faculty, staff, and students...albeit with change. Professor Bruce Hargreaves is set to retire after 38 years at Lehigh. We all wish Bruce and his family good health and much success for years to come. EES achievements in 2014 made it difficult to select what to highlight in the following pages. Noteworthy were the election of Professor Ken Kodama as a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, the awarding of the Christian and Mary Linback award for distinguished teaching to Professor Frank Pazzaglia, and the selection of EES graduate student Helen Malenda as a National Science Foundation Fellow. The newsletter also gives me an opportunity to acknowledge the generosity of our alumni who have given their time to share their career experiences with our students or their wealth to EES to embellish the educational experiences we can provide. For many earth and environmental scientists, a field setting always stirs emotions, provides awe and wonder, and inspires our curiosity. The field setting also provides a strong social learning environment where professor-student and peer-to-peer relations flourish. Inspirational field trips and summer field camp provides students with the opportunity to discover the breadth and scale of the many processes that have shaped the Earth. Thanks to the generosity of the Chevron Corporation and Chevron-EES alumni our field programs got a boost in 2014.
