1 Chapman, David S.Geothermics and climate change: 1. Analysis of borehole temperatures with emphasis on resolving powerTemperature-depth data from six boreholes in western Utah and nine boreholes in southeastern Utah are reanalyzed for evidence of ground surface temperature (GST) histories. We invert the temperature-depth data using the functional space inverse algorithm of Shen and Beck [1991, 1992] which we prefer...surface air temperature; ground surface temperature; borehole temperatures; geothermal observations; geothermics1998
2 Chapman, David S.Geothermics and climate change: 2. Joint analysis of borehole temperature and meteorological dataLong-period ground surface temperature variations contained in bore hole temperature-depth profiles form a complementary climate change record to high-frequency, but noisy surface air temperature (SAT) records at weather stations. We illustrate the benefits of jointly analyzing geothermal and meteo...surface air temperature; ground surface temperature; borehole temperatures; geothermal observations; heat transfer1998
3 Chapman, David S.Global warming - just hot air?We know from weather station records that Earth's surface temperature has increased on average by 0.6 degrees C in the last 100 years. The 1990s have been the warmest decade on record. Over the same period, global sea level has increased by 10-20 cm. We know also that planet Earth has an atmosphere ...greenhouse Effect; climate change1998
4 Chapman, David S.; Allis, Richard GeorgeLate Neogene exhumation patterns in Taranaki Basin (New Zealand): evidence from offset porosity-depth trendsTaranaki Basin, New Zealand, is located adjacent to the Australian-Pacific Plate boundary where the tectonic regime changes from dominantly subduction-related to the north to transpression-related along the Alpine Fault to the south. During the Neogene, burial and exhumation varied extensively, in ...Neogene; uplift; exhumation; Taranaki Basin; New Zealand1998
5 Jewell, PaulGeochemical variations in an alpine lake and watershed underlain by siliciclastic bedrock, Uinta Mountains, UtahA small watershed which includes several small lakes in the Uinta Mountains of northern Utah is underlain by monolithologic Precambrian siliciclastic rock with extremely limited buffering capacity. In spite of this, s\ stematic spatial and temporal variations in alkalinity, pH, and major elements oc...1998-01-01
