Pluton emplacement, aureole deformation and metamorphism, and regional deformation within the central White-Inyo Range, Eastern California
The central White-Inyo Range in eastern California is a deformed section of Neoproterozoic through Cambrian sedimentary rocks which has been intruded by granitic plutons associated with the Mesozoic Sierra Nevada intrusive suites to the west. My dissertation involves a characterization of the …

Pluton source varition over two magmatic pulses in the White-Inyo range, central-eastern California : implications for paleozoic and mesozoic tectonic reconstructions
… dissertation uses compositions of plutons in the White-Inyo Range (WIR) of central-eastern California, which is an important tectonic boundary as it is the easternmost extent of the Mesozoic Cordilleran arc and the western edge of Basin and Range extension. The main goal of this dissertation is to …

Geometry, kinematics and age of the northern half of the White Mountain shear zone, eastern California and Nevada
The White Mountain shear zone (WMSZ) is a zone of intense penetrative deformation that lies along the western front of the northern White-Inyo Range in eastern-most California and western-most Nevada. The northern half of the WMSZ is characterized by a NNE to NNW-striking steeply dipping foliation …

Lower Cambrian bioherms in central Nevada and eastern California
… Member of the Campito Formation in the White-Inyo Range of eastern California. Although both bioherm complexes were constructed by archaeocyaths and calcareous microbial organisms, there are significant differences in the structure and fabric of the biohermal limestones, in the taxa and …

Heterogeneous internal fabric of the Mount Barcroft pluton, White Mountains, of eastern California: an anisotropy of magnetic susceptibility study
… of felsic-intermediate compositions in the White-Inyo Range of eastern California. However, application of the AMS techniques to the Mount Barcroft pluton, located in the northern White Mountains, has yielded anomalous scalar and directional AMS data indicative of unprecedented heterogeneity …

Emplacement of the Santa Rita Flat pluton and kinematic analysis of cross cutting shear zones, eastern California
… - Late Jurassic) recognized in the southern Inyo Mountains. Northwest trending folds are pervasive along the western flank of the Inyo and White Mountains, and may have accommodated strains at the lateral tips of thrust faults which crop out in the southern Inyo Mountains. We speculate that …
