Winds, turbulence and waves in the clouds of Venus

The Ph.D. Thesis summarized in this abstract was accepted on 20 March 2009 at the University of the Basque Country (Spain) and awarded with the highest qualification. This work was advised by Drs. Agustín Sánchez-Lavega and Ricardo Hueso.     

The ordovician and other post-rosslare series Rocks in Southeast Co. Wexford

Ordovician sediments at Tagoat and Rosslare Harbour are re-described and their relationship to the underlying Rosslare Series discussed. A brief outline of their petrology is given, but it is shown that the fauna is in need of revision before reliable correlations can be made. Similar rocks are recorded near Tomhaggard; amongst these, spotted mudstones imply Ordovician or later intrusions. Undeformec dykes intrusive into the Rosslare Series are believed to be representatives of this phase.     

Main Stages of Evolution of Pacific Ferromanganese Stromatolites and Oncolites

As exemplified by cobalt–bearing Fe–Mn crusts (ferromanganese stromatolite) of the Magellan Seamounts (Clarion–Clipperton Province), the main stages of the structural evolution of bacterial communities have been recognized. It has been demonstrated that the change of the stages is caused by the effect of major tectonic, volcanic, and other geological events.     

Correspondence analysis applied to volcanic aerosols

A statistical analysis of volcanic aerosol based on 1,083 variables including concentration, grain-size and site variabilities establishes correlations between sites and among chemical elements.Variation curves of element concentration show parallel behaviour. High coefficients of correlation between anions and cations confirm associations between elements.

Uranium has been measured by homogenized fission track analysis in 34 samples of 22 achondrites. Potassium has been determined in aliquots of eleven of these. The results, combined with previous Al data, are not compatible with achondrite formation from chondritic material by previously suggested fractional melting or metal-sulfide segregation processes.
