Sedimentary Cyclicity In Crp Drillcore, Victoria Land Basin, Antarctica, T. R. Naish, P. J. Barrett, G. B. Dunbar, K. J. Woolfe, A. G. Dunn, S. A. Henrys, M. Claps, R. D. Powell, Christopher R. Fielding

Department of Earth and Atmospheric Sciences: Faculty Publications

The upper 1200 m of pre-Pliocene sediment recovered by Cape Roberts Project (CRP) drilling off the Victoria Land coast of Antarctica between 1997-1999 has been subdivided into 54 unconformity-bound stratigraphic sequences, spanning the period c. 32 to 17 Ma. The sequences are recognised on the basis of the cyclical vertical stacking of their constituent lithofacies, which are enclosed by erosion surfaces produced during the grounding of the advancing ice margin onto the sea floor. Each sequence represents deposition in a range of offshore shelf to coastal glacimarine sedimentary environments during oscillations in the ice margin across the Western Ross Sea …


Building Blocks For Reliable Complex Nonlinear Numerical Simulations, Helen Yee Jan 2001

Building Blocks For Reliable Complex Nonlinear Numerical Simulations, Helen Yee

United States National Aeronautics and Space Administration: Publications

This chapter describes some of the building blocks to ensure a higher level of confidence in the predictability and reliability (PAR) of numerical simulation of multiscale complex nonlinear problems. The focus is on relating PAR of numerical simulations with complex nonlinear phenomena of numerics. To isolate sources of numerical uncertainties, the possible discrepancy between the chosen partial differential equation (PDE) model and the real physics and/or experimental data is set aside. The discussion is restricted to how well numerical schemes can mimic the solution behavior of the underlying PDE model for finite time steps and grid spacings. The situation is …

Expropriatory Intent: Defining The Proper Boundaries Of Substantive Due Process And The Takings Clause, Ronald J. Krotoszynski Jr. Jan 2001

Expropriatory Intent: Defining The Proper Boundaries Of Substantive Due Process And The Takings Clause, Ronald J. Krotoszynski Jr.

Articles

Expropriatory Intent Defining the Proper Boundaries of Substantive Due Process and the Takings Clause examines and critiques the contemporary Supreme Courts expansive construction of the Takings Clause Although the Supreme Court generally has decried the use of substantive due process to invalidate economic and social legislation many of the recent regulatory takings cases deploy the Takings Clause to second guess the legitimacy or fundamental fairness of such enactments The article argues that when a plaintiff alleges that a federal or state law is fundamentally unjust or arbitrary the federal courts should analyze the merits of the claim under the rubric …

Choice And Boundary Problems In Logerquist, Hummert, And Kumho Tire, David H. Kaye Jan 2001

Choice And Boundary Problems In Logerquist, Hummert, And Kumho Tire, David H. Kaye

Faculty Scholarship

This article, part of a symposium on the opinion of the Arizona Supreme Court in Logerquist v. McVey, questions that court’s rationales for refusing to apply heightened scrutiny to psychiatric testimony about the retrieval of repressed memories. It also challenges the court’s use of a “personal observations” exception to the heightened scrutiny standard of Frye v. United States. It proposes that a better solution to problems of scientific and expert evidence would be to adopt a sliding scale that attends to the use to which the evidence is put and the degree to which it has been shown to be …
