The widely distributed geothermal resources in this region could be considered as potential alternative sources of power and heat. However, most of the known geothermal fields in Southwestern Tibet are poorly prospected and currently almost no geothermal energy is exploited. Here we present a case study mapping the Mapamyum (QP) geothermal field of Southwestern Tibet using audio magnetotellurics (AMT) and magnetotellurics (MT) methods.

  • An Abstract of the Dissertation Of
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION OF Benjamin S. Murphy for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Geology presented on May 28, 2019. Title: Magnetotelluric Constraints on Lithospheric Properties in the Southeastern United States Abstract approved: _______________________________________________________ Gary D. Egbert By inverting EarthScope long-period magnetotelluric (MT) data from the southeastern United States (SEUS), we obtain electrical conductivity images that provides key insights into the geodynamics of this region. Significantly, we resolve a highly electrically resistive block that extends to mantle depths beneath the modern Piedmont and Coastal Plain physiographic provinces. As high resistivity values in mantle minerals require cold mantle temperatures, the MT data indicate that the sub- Piedmont thermal lithosphere must extend to greater than 200 km depth. This firm bound appears to conflict with conclusions from seismic results; tomography shows that velocities in this region are generally slightly slow with respect to references models. This observation has led to a seismically-informed view of relatively thin (<150 km), eroded thermal lithosphere beneath the SEUS. However, resolution tests demonstrate that our MT constraints are robust. Furthermore, narrow-band biases in MT transfer functions from the SEUS due to geomagnetic pulsations associated with field-line resonances support the presence of bulk resistive lithosphere in this region. We show that, by considering anelastic prediction of seismic observables, MT and seismic (tomography, attenuation, receiver function) results are in fact consistent with thick (~200 km), coherent thermal lithosphere in this region. Our results demonstrate the danger of interpreting seismic results purely in terms of reference models and the importance of integrating different geophysical techniques when formulating geodynamic interpretations.

  • Magnetotellurics and Airborne Electromagnetics As a Combined Method for Assessing Basin Structure and Geometry
    Magnetotellurics and Airborne Electromagnetics as a combined method for assessing basin structure and geometry. Thesis submitted in accordance with the requirements of the University of Adelaide for an Honours Degree in Geophysics. Millicent Crowe October 2012 MT & AEM AS COMBINED EXPLORATION METHOD 1 MAGNETOTELLURICS AND AIRBORNE ELECTROMAGNETICS AS A COMBINED METHOD FOR ASSESSING BASIN STRUCTURE AND GEOMETRY. MT & AEM AS A COMBINED EXPLORATION METHOD ABSTRACT Unconformity-type uranium deposits are characterised by high-grade and constitute over a third of the world’s uranium resources. The Cariewerloo Basin, South Australia, is a region of high prospectivity for unconformity-related uranium as it contains many similarities to an Athabasca-style unconformity deposit. These include features such as Mesoproterozoic red-bed sediments, Paleoproterozoic reduced crystalline basement enriched in uranium (~15-20 ppm) and reactivated basement faults. An airborne electromagnetic (AEM) survey was flown in 2010 using the Fugro TEMPEST system to delineate the unconformity surface at the base of the Pandurra Formation. However highly conductive regolith attenuated the signal in the northern and eastern regions, requiring application of deeper geophysical methods. In 2012 a magnetotelluric (MT) survey was conducted along a 110 km transect of the north-south trending AEM line. The MT data was collected at 29 stations and successfully imaged the depth to basement, furthermore providing evidence for deeper fluid pathways. The AEM data were integrated into the regularisation mesh as a-priori information generating an AEM constrained resistivty model and also correcting for static shift. The AEM constrained resistivity model best resolved resistive structures, allowing strong contrast with conductive zones.

VALLEY 1Department of Geology and Geophysics, University of Wisconsin, Madison, WI, USA 2Institute of Volcanic Geology and Geochemistry, Petropavlovsk-Kamchatsky, Russia 3Geologisk Institut, University of Copenhagen, Copenhagen, Denmark (Received March 20, 2003; accepted in revised form July 16, 2003) Abstract—We present the results of a regional study of oxygen and Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes of Pleistocene to Recent arc volcanism in the Kamchatka Peninsula and the Kuriles, with emphasis on the largest caldera- forming centers. The ␦18O values of phenocrysts, in combination with numerical crystallization modeling (MELTS) and experimental fractionation factors, are used to derive best estimates of primary values for ␦18O(magma). Magmatic ␦18O values span 3.5‰ and are correlated with whole-rock Sr-Nd-Pb isotopes and major elements. Our data show that Kamchatka is a region of isotopic diversity with high-␦18O basaltic magmas (sampling mantle to lower crustal high-␦18O sources), and low-␦18O silicic volcanism (sampling low-␦18O upper crust). Among one hundred Holocene and Late Pleistocene eruptive units from 23 volcanic centers, one half represents low-␦18O magmas (ϩ4 to 5‰). Most low-␦ 18O magmas are voluminous silicic ignimbrites related to large Ͼ10 km3 caldera-forming eruptions and subsequent intracaldera lavas and domes: Holocene multi-caldera Ksudach volcano, Karymsky and Kurile Lake-Iliinsky calderas, and Late Pleistocene Maly Semyachik, Akademy Nauk, and Uzon calderas.

  • Weathering of Volcanic Ash in the Cryogenic Zone of Kamchatka, Eastern Russia
    Clay Minerals, (2014) 49, 195–212 OPEN ACCESS Weathering of volcanic ash in the cryogenic zone of Kamchatka, eastern Russia 1, 2 E. KUZNETSOVA * AND R. MOTENKO 1 SINTEF Building and Infrastructure, Trondheim, NO-7465, Norway, and 2 Lomonosov Moscow State University, Moscow, 119991, Russia (Received 8 August 2012; revised 28 August 2013; Editor: Harry Shaw) ABSTRACT: The nature of the alteration of basaltic, andesitic and rhyolitic glass of Holocene and Pleistocene age and their physical and chemical environments have been investigated in the ash layers within the cryogenic soils associated with the volcanoes in the central depression of Kamchatka. One of the main factors controlling the alteration of the volcanic glass is their initial chemistry with those of andesitic (SiO2 =53À65 wt.%) and basaltic (SiO2 < 53 wt.%) compositions being characterized by the presence of allophane, whereas volcanic glass of rhyolitic composition (SiO2>65 wt.%) are characterized by opal. Variations in the age of eruption of individual ashes, the amount and nature of the soil water, the depth of the active annual freeze-thawing layer, the thermal conductivity of the weathering soils, do not play a controlling role in the type of weathering products of the ashes but may affect their rates of alteration. KEYWORDS: volcanic ash, allophane, opal, unfrozen water, thermal conductivity, permafrost, Kamchatka. The highly active volcanic area of Kamchatka in local and remote eruptions and from the secondary eastern Russia is part of the circum-Pacific belt of re-deposition of ash (Bazanova et al., 2005). andesitic volcanism. It is situated north of the 49th Considerable research has been carried out on the parallel of latitude and is characterized by a weathering of volcanic glass.

  • Peace in Palestine Via the World Heritage Convention
    . Michael K. Madison II. Peace in Palestine ..........through World Heritage Promoting Peace via Global Conventions - 1 - Peace in Palestine via the World Heritage Convention Promoting Peace via Global Conventions The Global Problem "Throughout history, religious differences have divided men and women from their neighbors and have served as justification for some of humankind's bloodiest conflicts. In the modern world, it has become clear that people of all religions must bridge these differences and work together, to ensure our survival and realize the vision of peace that all faiths share." -- H.R.H. Prince El-Hassan bin Talal, Jordan Moderator, WCRP Governing Board Tolerance, Economic Growth and Fear Global peace and harmony is not possible without religious tolerance. Unfortunately, there is no instant microwavable solution. We can’t just add water and/or milk to the current situation and hope that the world will ameliorate itself overnight. No. The world needs help. The problem is not the outliers; it is larger groups of people that need to change. Outliers will always be present. The world needs religious-minded policymakers to take giant steps that lead to peace, but in a mutually beneficial way. Indeed, peace for peace’s sake is not always enough incentive to all parties involved. Therefore, if the conflict cannot be resolved by tolerance, then let it be resolved by greed as we find a way to help the countries involved to achieve a better economic position. If the conflict cannot be resolved by boosting the corresponding economies, then let it be resolved by fear as we convince the nations involved that one false move means it will be - 2 - their country against the rest of the world and not just their “enemy of the day”.
