Sutherland et al. Expedition 371 Preliminary Report Abstract Eocene tectonic change occurred at a turning point in Cenozoic climate. Long-term global warming through the Paleocene–Eocene International Ocean Discovery Program (IODP) Expedition 371 transition culminated in the Early Eocene Climate Optimum drilled six sites in the Tasman Sea of the southwest Pacific between (EECO; ~53–49 Ma), which was followed by overall cooling 27 July and 26 September 2017. The primary goal was to understand through the remainder of the Cenozoic (Figure F5) (Zachos et al., Tonga-Kermadec subduction initiation through recovery of Paleo- 2008). A secondary scientific goal of Expedition 371 was to address gene sediment records. Secondary goals involved understanding re- the question of why Earth’s climate might move between multimil- gional oceanography and climate since the Paleogene. Six sites were lion-year greenhouse and icehouse climate states. Under very high drilled, recovering 2506 m of cored sediment and volcanic rock in pCO2 conditions or high climate sensitivity, global climate models 36.4 days of on-site drilling during a total expedition length of 58 (Huber and Caballero, 2011; Lunt et al., 2012) can reasonably simu- days. Wireline logs were collected at two sites. Shipboard observa- late early Eocene warming in many regions (Douglas et al., 2014; tions made using cores and logs represent a substantial gain in fun- Tripati et al., 2003) but not the extreme warmth previously reported damental knowledge about northern

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Provenance, Offset Equivalent and Palinspastic Reconstruction of the Miocene Cajon Valley Formation, Southern California A thesis submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Geology By Dallon Michael Stang 2013 ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS Provenance, Offset Equivalent and Palinspastic Reconstruction of the Miocene Cajon Valley Formation, Southern California By Dallon Michael Stang Master of Science in Geology University of California, Los Angeles, 2013 Professor Raymond V. Ingersoll, Chair Petrographic, conglomerate and detrital-zircon analyses of formations in southern California can determine consanguineous petrofacies and lithofacies that help constrain paleotectonic and paleogeographic reconstructions of the southwestern United States. Arkosic sandstone of the lower Middle Miocene Cajon Valley formation is exposed on the southwest edge of the Mojave block and juxtaposed against Mesozoic and Paleozoic rocks by the San Andreas fault (SAf). Early work in Cajon Valley referred to the formation as Punchbowl, due to its similar appearance to the Punchbowl Formation at Devil’s Punchbowl (northwest along the SAf). However, paleontological work placed Cajon Valley strata in the Hemingfordian-Barstovian (18-14 Ma), as opposed to the Clarendonian-Hemphillian (13-9 Ma) Punchbowl Formation. Since the Cajon Valley formation was deposited prior to being truncated by the San Andreas fault, the 2400m- thick, laterally extensive subaerial deposits likely were deposited across what is now the fault ii trace. Restoring 310 km of dextral slip on the SAf system should indicate the location of offset equivalent sandstone. Restoration of slip on the SAf system places Cajon Valley adjacent to the Caliente and La Panza Ranges, east of San Luis Obispo.
