“…The compositions of stream and spring waters have been reported by Neumann and Dreiss (1995) and Conell and Dreiss (1995). The chemistry of the streams and springs results from weathering processes, and these inputs to Mono Lake, along with evaporation processes and mineral formation Major lake terraces can be seen on the NW and NE side of the lake (Battaglia et al, 2003). within the lake, are responsible for the lake chemistry (Tomascak et al, 2003).…”

“…In the summer of 2010, we collected new regional gravity and ground magnetic data in and around the Mono Domes to improve the gravity and magnetic coverage throughout the region. New gravity data were compiled with an existing gravity database (Battaglia et al, 2003) to produce a new regional isostatic gravity anomaly map. In addition, a ground magnetic anomaly map was also produced from the newly collected data.…”

Geophysical Expression of the Northern Part of the Mono-Inyo Volcanic Chain, Mono Basin, California

The Mono Domes are located at the northernmost end of the Mono-Inyo volcanic chain just north of the Long Valley Caldera and include more than 30 overlapping domes and coulees that follow an arcuate trend. A shallow basement high, possibly bounded by a fault, as suggested by potential-field models of data collected in Mono Basin, California, may have influenced the geometry and location of the Mono Domes. Over 320 new gravity stations and approximately 297 line-km of ground magnetic data were collected during the summer of 2010 to investigate the subsurface structure of the Mono Basin. Regional gravity data were collected throughout the basin, and ground magnetic data were collected on major roads along numerous transects throughout the region, one of which was coincident with a seismic refraction line. Gravity and magnetic data were compiled with pre-existing data from studies dating back to the 1960's to produce a new regional isostatic gravity anomaly map and ground magnetic profiles throughout the basin. Aeromagnetic and ground magnetic data revealed an anomalous ring-shaped magnetic high centered over Aeolian Buttes, whose eastern margin follows the arcuate trend of the Mono Domes. This magnetic high is essentially coincident with what Kistler (1966) inferred to be a ring-fracture. Two-dimensional forward modeling of potential field data along a profile across the basin suggests a basement high, or ridge, at roughly 700 m depth, the eastern edge of which lies beneath the Mono Domes. The basement ridge is probably fractured, as suggested by potential field data, indicating a possible preexisting fault beneath the Mono Domes. This fault is along the eastern edge of the basement ridge and could have served as a conduit for the Mono Domes feeder dike. vi ACKNOWLEGEMENTS This thesis project would not have been possible without the support of many people. My deepest appreciation goes to my thesis committee for their continued encouragement and support. I would like to thank Dr. Jonathan Miller for having confidence in me and giving me the opportunity to work on this project. I would also like to thank Dr. Maurizio Battaglia for taking me on as a student and providing invaluable guidance throughout the thesis. It is an honor to have had Dr. Maggie Mangan as a supervisor and mentor and to have her support and encouragement, and for introducing me to the GUMP group. I am very fortunate to have been under the supervision of such an amazing woman/scientist. I owe my deepest gratitude to Dr. Darcy McPhee and Dave Ponce for teaching me more than any potential field geophysics book or class could have ever taught me, and for opportunities I would have never had without their help. I cannot find the words to express my appreciation to Dave for his mentoring and advising through every aspect of this work and for his patience and understanding, no matter how small the question. It was a privilege to work with both Darcy and Dave and never in my dreams would I have expected a thesis project to be as fun and exciting as this w...
