Late Paleozoic deformation and exhumation in the Sierras Pampeanas (Argentina): 40Ar/39Ar-feldspar dating constraints
No full textSystematic 40Ar/39Ar feldspar data obtained from the Sierras Pampeanas are presented, filling the gap between available high- (>~300 °C) and low-temperature (<~150 °C) thermochronological data. Results show Silurian–Devonian exhumation related to the late stages of the Famatinian/Ocloyic Orogeny for the Sierra de Pocho and the Sierra de Pie de Palo regions, whereas the Sierras de San Luis and the Sierra de Comechingones regions record exhumation during the Carboniferous. Comparison between new and available data points to a Carboniferous tectonic event in the Sierras Pampeanas, which represents a key period to constrain the early evolution of the proto-Andean margin of Gondwana. This event was probably transtensional and played a major role during the evolution of the Paganzo Basin as well as during the emplacement of alkaline magmatism in the retroarc.Fil: Löbens, Stefan.

No full textIn this study, we measured the excretion rate of nicotine and its two major metabolites, cotinine and trans-3′-hydroxycotinine (THOC), in the urine of 25 healthy smokers and 15 smokers who underwent a coronary artery bypass surgery or coronary angioplasty. After 1 day of smoking cessation, urine samples were collected in the morning, before smoking two cigarettes, and then three times after smoking, approximately 4 h apart. The results show that (i) in healthy smokers, nicotine and its two major metabolites were present at high concentration in the first urine sample after smoking, (ii) in smokers with cardiovascular disease nicotine and cotinine were less excreted whereas THOC was more excreted, mainly in the second urine sample. We conclude that this shift in nicotine metabolism may contribute to smoking-induced cardiovascular disease. © Springer Science + Business Media, Inc. 2005.BENOWITZ NL, 1982, J PHARMACOL EXP THER, V221, P368; BENOWITZ NL, 1994, J PHARMACOL EXP THER, V268, P296; BENOWITZ NL, 1991, ADV PHAR SC, P579; Benowitz NL, 2001, BRIT J CLIN PHARMACO, V51, P53, DOI 10.1046-j.1365-2125.2001.01309.x; BYRD GD, 1992, DRUG METAB DISPOS, V20, P192; Chahine R, 1996, MED SCI RES, V24, P21; CHAHINE R, 1993, MED SCI RES, V21, P421; CHAHINE R, 1991, ADV PHAR SC, P171; Cope G, 1996, CLIN CHIM ACTA, V256, P135, DOI 10.1016-S0009-8981(96)06417-0; Groeger AM, 1997, ANTICANCER RES, V17, P2849; Hansen AM, 2001, CLIN CHIM ACTA, V304, P125, DOI 10.1016-S0009-8981(00)00415-0; Haufroid V, 1998, INT ARCH OCC ENV HEA, V71, P162, DOI 10.1007-s004200050266; Ji AJ, 1999, CLIN CHEM, V45, P85; Messina ES, 1997, J PHARMACOL EXP THER, V282, P1608; Nakajima M, 2000, CLIN PHARMACOL THER, V67, P57, DOI 10.1067-mcp.2000.103957; Nemr R, 2003, PROSTAG LEUKOTR ESS, V68, P191, DOI 10.1016-S0952-3278(02)00229-6; Riah O, 1999, TOXICOL LETT, V109, P21, DOI 10.1016-S0378-4274(99)00070-3; ROP PP, 1993, J CHROMATOGR-BIOMED, V612, P302, DOI 10.1016-0378-4347(93)80177-6; Tricker AR, 2003, TOXICOLOGY, V183, P151, DOI 10.1016-S0300-483X(02)00513-9; Zevin S, 1999, CLIN PHARMACOKINET, V36, P425, DOI 10.2165-00003088-199936060-0000412
Book Review: Encyclopedia of American Women and Religion, 2nd Ed.
No full textWomen have had a major role in religion throughout history but have been consistently overlooked, providing a sound purpose and intention for this two-volume encyclopedia. The expertise shown in the comprehensive coverage is a credit to the author, June Melby Benowitz, a history professor whose research emphasizes the history of women. These volumes primarily cover the nineteenth, twentieth, and early twenty-first century. The individual entries are relatively short, between five and six paragraphs. It is a perfect starting point in the research process for students in American history, women’s studies, or theology classes. </jats:p

Tectonophysics
No full textThe tallest mountain in North America, Denali (formerly Mount McKinley, 6,190 m), is situated inside an abrupt bend in the right-lateral strike-slip Denali fault. This anomalous topography is clearly associated with the complex geometry of the Denali fault, but how this restraining bend has evolved in conjunction with the regional topography is unknown. To constrain how this bend in the Denali fault is deforming, we document the Quaternary fault-related deformation north of the Denali fault through combined geologic mapping, active fault characterization, and analysis of background seismicity. Our mapping illustrates an east–west change in faulting style where normal faults occur east of the fault bend and thrust faults predominate to the west. The complex and elevated regional seismicity corroborates the style of faulting adjacent to the fault bend and provides additional insight into the change in local stress field in the crust adjacent to the bend. The style of active faulting and seismicity patterns define a deforming zone that accommodates the southwestward migration of this restraining bend. Fault slip rates for the active faults north of the Denali fault, derived from offset glacial outwash surfaces, indicate that the Mount McKinley restraining bend is migrating along the Denali fault at a late Pleistocene/Holocene rate of ~ 2–6 mm/yr. Ongoing thermochronologic and structural studies of the Mount McKinley restraining bend will extend these constraints on the migration and evolution of the restraining bend deeper in time and to the south of the Denali fault.Published versio
