The Euler pole for plate B is shown in Fig. 5.3. An Euler pole can be used to determine both the direction and velocity of movement of one plate relative to another. Because the plate is rotating about an axis, the relative velocity, and therefore the rate of divergence and convergence,...
fossil species from the Indian Subcontinent is given in Table2. Red numbers near nodes are Bayesian posterior probability (BPP) values of BEAST v. 2.6.3. Black numbers near nodes are the mean node ages. Node bars are 95% HPD of divergence time. Time and biogeographic reconstructions for weak...
The length of the most basal branch in a rooted tree with molecular clock not enforced is trivial and therefore has to be removed before estimating the divergence times using smoothing methods (see below). The most recent common ancestor of Dysderoids, however, provided a calibration point and...
(record length was 14 s at 2 ms sampling interval). The adopted processing flow was as follows: (1) spherical divergence and absorption compensation, (2) trace editing and de-spiking, (3) normal-move-out and common-depth-point stacks, using stacking velocities derived from semblance-...
The elevated strain rates are particularly relevant, as the plate boundary is assumed to have divergence rates of only 0.5 cm/year [61]. Second, other examples of deformed ultramafic rocks in the region are interpreted to occur along the plate boundary, as exhibited by other outcrops in the...
The other one is based on the wave theory. In the solution domain, the energy balance equation is established, which includes the same waveform in space and frequency as the average input power, loss power, and divergence of the vibration intensity in the domain. After discretization, a ...
Usually, there is a possibility of divergence of the solution at the boundaries due to the nonconvergence of the solution. However, with the specific steps with the Peri-elastodynamic process described in this paper, the results will be converged and bounded boundary reflections will be achieved....
