Mid-Continent Earthquakes as a Complex System
Niels Bohr once observed: “How wonderful that we have met with a paradox. Now we have some hope of making progress.” This situation is happening in the long-frustrating effort to understand large earthquakes in continental interiors. The paradox arises from a series of GPS studies across the New Madrid seismic zone (NMSZ). Large (magnitude >7) earthquakes felt across the Midwest occurred here i...
متن کاملMid-Continent Fall Temperatures at the 10-cm Soil Depth
Recommendations for applying nitrogen (N) fertilizer in autumn involve delaying applications until daily soil temperature at 10-cm depth is #10 C. Daily soil temperature data during autumn were examined from 26 sites along a transect from 36 to 49 N latitude in mid-continent USA. After soils first cooled to #10 C (First10), temperatures usually rebounded for varying amounts of time before the f...
متن کاملMagnetotelluric Studies of Active Continent–Continent Collisions
Continent–continent collisions are an important tectonic process and have played a fundamental role in the evolution of the modern continents. A combination of geological and geophysical data has provided new constraints on the structure and temporal evolution of these orogens. Magnetotelluric (MT) studies have been an important part of these studies since they can constrain the fluid content a...
متن کاملCharacterizing Curtailed and Uneconomic Renewable Power in the Mid-continent Independent System Operator
As power grids incorporate increased renewable generation such as wind and solar, their variability creates growing challenges for grid stability and efficiency. We study two facets: power the grid is unable to accept (curtailment), and power that is assigned zero economic value by the grid (negative or zero price). Collectively we term these stranded power or SP. We study stranded power in the...
متن کاملThe dynamics of landscape change and snow geese in mid-continent North America
The Mid-Continent Population of the lesser snow goose, which breeds in the eastern and central Canadian Arctic and sub-Arctic, and winters in the southern United States and northern Mexico has increased 5–7% annually from the late 1960s to the mid-1990s, largely because of increased survival in response to an agricultural food subsidy. The rise in numbers complements the increased use of nitrog...
