Dome Formation During Crustal Extension In The Himalaya: Kinematic And Pressure-Temperature-Time-Deformation Constraints On Extensional Exhumation Along The Southern Margin Of The Tibetan Plateau, Jackie M. Langille May 2012

Dome Formation During Crustal Extension In The Himalaya: Kinematic And Pressure-Temperature-Time-Deformation Constraints On Extensional Exhumation Along The Southern Margin Of The Tibetan Plateau, Jackie M. Langille

Doctoral Dissertations

The Himalaya and Tibetan Plateau were built by a combination of south-directed thrusting, north-directed extension, and generally east-west-directed extension within the Himalaya and Tibetan Plateau all to accommodate convergence between the Indian and Eurasian plates that began in the Eocene. Normal-sense shear zones that accommodate roughly east-west-directed extension across the southern margin of the Himalaya have exhumed young metamorphic domes across the Himalayan front. These metamorphic domes contain high-grade metamorphic rocks bound by normal-sense shear zones. The purpose of this study is to evaluate how these normal-sense shear zones develop and how they exhume metamorphic domes, which remains poorly understood …

Diffusion Of Social Media Among County 4-H Programs In Tennessee, Rebekah Bowen May 2012

Diffusion Of Social Media Among County 4-H Programs In Tennessee, Rebekah Bowen

Masters Theses

Over the past decade, Cooperative Extension and 4-H professionals have been faced with the decision of whether they should adopt new communication technologies such as social media to interact with their rapidly growing audience. Current research on social media and Extension shows that there are some identified risks and barriers (Fuess & Humphreys, 2011; Seger, 2011); however, many Extension professionals believe that social media usage could be very beneficial for Extension and\or 4-H usage (Coates, 2004; Rhoades, Thomas & Davis, 2009; Kinsey, 2010). In order to increase the body of empirical research on this subject, a quantitative study was conducted …

MTAS History

This handbook is one of the products of a cooperative program of study of government in the South. For several years the Universities of Alabama, Kentucky, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, and Virginia, along with the Tennessee Valley Authority, have been working together in an effort to obtain more information about governn1ent in the southern states, and to 1nake that inforn1ation available to public officials and other interested individuals. The General Education Board, a philanthropic foundation, has helped finance this progran1, and those who have participated in the enterprise greatly appreciate 'its assistance.
