Extensive Frost Weathering Across Unglaciated North America During The Last Glacial Maximum, J. A. Marshall, J. J. Roering, A. W. Rempel, S. L. Shafer, P. J. Bartlein Mar 2021

Extensive Frost Weathering Across Unglaciated North America During The Last Glacial Maximum, J. A. Marshall, J. J. Roering, A. W. Rempel, S. L. Shafer, P. J. Bartlein

Geosciences Faculty Publications and Presentations

In unglaciated terrain, the imprint of past glacial periods is difficult to discern. The topographic signature of periglacial processes, such as solifluction lobes, may be erased or hidden by time and vegetation, and thus their import diminished. Belowground, periglacial weathering, particularly frost cracking, may have imparted a profound influence on weathering and erosion rates during past climate regimes. By combining a mechanical frost-weathering model with the full suite of Last Glacial Maximum climate simulations, we elucidate the meters-deep magnitude and continent-spanning expanse of frost weathering across unglaciated North America at ∼21 ka. The surprising extent of modeled frost weathering suggests, …

Characterizing Nematode Communities In Carrot Fields And Their Bioindicator Role For Soil Health, A. Habteweld, D. Brainard, A. Kravchencko, Parwinder Grewal, H. Melakeberhan

School of Earth, Environmental, & Marine Sciences Faculty Publications

Plant-parasitic nematodes (PPN) are known to reduce quality and yield of carrot (Daucus carota var. sativus). Efficient nematode management begins with identifying the predominant PPN present in a given field before taking any management decisions. The management decisions should also consider suppression of PPN and promotion of beneficial nematodes represented by bacterivores, fungivores, omnivores, and predators to improve soil health conditions. We selected four carrot fields suspected to have PPN problems in Mason and Oceana counties in Michigan, USA. The counties are located in the major carrot-producing regions of Michigan. These sites have not been previously sampled for …

The Influence Of Juvenile Dinosaurs On Community Structure And Diversity, Katlin Schroeder, S. Kathleen Lyons, Felisa A. Smith Feb 2021

The Influence Of Juvenile Dinosaurs On Community Structure And Diversity, Katlin Schroeder, S. Kathleen Lyons, Felisa A. Smith

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

Despite dominating biodiversity in the Mesozoic, dinosaurs were not speciose. Oviparity constrained even gigantic dinosaurs to less than 15 kg at birth; growth through multiple morphologies led to the consumption of different resources at each stage. Such disparity between neonates and adults could have influenced the structure and diversity of dinosaur communities. Here, we quantified this effect for 43 communities across 136 million years and seven continents. We found that megatheropods (more than 1000 kg) such as tyrannosaurs had specific effects on dinosaur community structure. Although herbivores spanned the body size range, communities with megatheropods lacked carnivores weighing 100 to …

Effects Of Alternating Stress On Casing Damage Mechanism, An Fengchen, Zhang Feiyang, Yi Hao, Zhang Sui'an

Coal Geology & Exploration

Horizontal well staged fracturing technology of horizontal well has been widely used in the exploitation of low-permeability oil and gas reservoirs and coalbed methane, and has achieved good economic results. However, the vertical section of the casing is found to be damaged with serious deformation in the process of multi-stage hydraulic fracturing, which will prevent bridge plugs from being installed at the preferred design depths, thereby resulting in abandonment of all remaining fracturing stages. In this study, a user element is developed to simulate the mechanical behavior at the casing-cement sheath interface under cyclic loads. The developed element is then …

Based on the similarity between the electric potential differential control equations of the current field and velocity potential differential control equations of the seepage field, the flow field method(FFM) can not only determine the seepage by measuring the distribution of current field, but also can efficiently figure out the leakage location of the dam. For further discovering the vector distribution and direction of seepage more accurately, the horizontal and vertical potential difference between the upstream and the downstream can be measured to simulate the vector distribution of seepage. In this paper, we illustrate the principle of vector flow field method(VFFM) …
