DeFord Lecture | Prosenjit GhoshSeptember, 28 2023Time: 4:00 PM - 5:00 PMLocation: Boyd Auditorium (JGB 2.324) Carbonate Clumped Isotopes Thermometry: A new tool for addressing the hydrological cycle and ocean circulation during Miocene optima and climate transition by Dr. Prosenjit Ghosh, Indian Institute of Science Abstract: Carbonate Clumped isotopes served as a unique tool for reconstruction of past temperature with confidence. This method has gained significant popularity amongst other competing techniques due to its ability to adequately define the temperature without knowing the isotopic composition of water. Nearly two decades of research engaged earth scientists in utilizing this new tool for addressing environmental condition for carbonate precipitation ranging from cosmos to benthos. The seminar will showcase a few new developments in the approach and provide a recent update on the scale for calibration of this novel tool for temperature assessment in carbonate samples from geological archives. Here, I will highlight some of our findings about environmental condition during mid Miocene and transition periods, which bear a large similarity with modern day Earth. The trends in hydrological conditions and extremes featured in the daily news channel broadcasts are encapsulated in the rock records preserved in the sedimentary libraries of the continental shelf and open ocean. We used the novel tool of clumped isotope thermometry on surface-dwelling planktonic foraminifera to investigate the thermal state of Miocene Ocean and the salinity condition over Indian Ocean, which are significantly influenced by the continental runoff and the biosphere.

UTIG Seminar Series: Eric Dunham, Stanford UniversitySeptember, 29 2023Time: 10:30 AM - 11:30 AMLocation: PRC 196/ROC 1.603 Speaker: Eric Dunham, Professor, Department of Geophysics, Director, SDSS Center for Computation, Stanford University Host: Demian Saffer Title: Earthquake Swarms, Slow Slip, and Fault Valving in Coupled Models of Earthquakes and Fault Zone Fluid Transport Abstract: Fluids and changes in pore fluid pressure in fault zones are thought to affect earthquake occurrence and fault slip behavior. Here we integrate fault zone fluid transport into earthquake cycle models to explore the coupled evolution of slip, pore fluid pressure, and fluid transport properties. We explore several models that account for the evolution of porosity and permeability in response to dilatancy, permeability enhancement during slip, chemical healing and sealing, and creep compaction. We also model the pore fluid pressure distribution along subduction megathrust faults by integrating petrologic modeling of dehydration reactions with mechanical modeling of up-dip fluid flow. The models produce fluid-driven aseismic slip, even for rate-strengthening friction, with many similarities to slow slip events, as well as swarm seismicity. We explore the relevance of these models to observations of slow slip events in subduction zones and to earthquake swarms (both naturally occurring and from injection), while also highlighting the need for additional experimental and geologic constraints to discriminate between the models. |
