A Light Detecting and Ranging (LiDAR) and Global Positioning System (GPS) Study of the Truckee Meadows, NV. Quaternary Fault Mapping with ArcGIS, 3D Visualization and Computational Block Modeling of the Greater Reno area.
(2016)The Truckee Meadows (Reno, NV) sits in a tectonically complex area of western Nevada, where Walker Lane-style transtension is dominant throughout the region. A new Light Detection and Ranging (LiDAR) study focuses on the ... -

Block Kinematics and Slip Rates in the Southern Walker Lane Estimated From GPS Data
(2010)The southern Walker Lane (SWL) is a part of the Eastern California Shear Zone that lies north of the Mojave region, bounded by the Garlock Fault to the south, the Sierra Nevada to the west, the Basin and Range to the east ... -

Comparing Deformation at Soda Lake Geothermal Field from GPS and 3D Seismic
(2013)The transition between the two distinct structural regimes of the Walker Lane and the Basin and Range allows for complex transtensional fault interactions. The Carson Sink is the surface expression of the interaction of ... -

Desert Tortoises, Density, and Violated Assumptions: Improving Estimates with Spatial Information
(2020)Accurate population estimates are essential for monitoring the recovery of the federally listed Mojave desert tortoise (Gopherus agassizii), however, desert tortoise populations are difficult to accurately quantify due to ... -

Evaluating Seasonal Deformation in the Vicinity of Active Fault Structures in Central California Using GPS Data
(2017)Central California is a tectonically active region in the Western United States, which encompasses segments of both the San Andreas and Calaveras Faults and centers around the town of Parkfield, California. Recently, ... -

Geophysical applications to the development of a groundwater model of Washoe Valley, Nevada
(University of Nevada, Reno, 1993)Gravity, ground magnetic, and terrain conductivity surveys were run in Washoe Valley to define subsurface lithology for input to a groundwater model. The gravity results map basin configuration, with a shallower basement ... -
