Variation of the contact time of droplets bouncing on cylindrical ridges with ridge size. by Andrew, M, Liu, Y, Yeomans, J

“…For obstacles small compared to the drop, the reduction in contact time is interpreted as being due to fast retraction along the cylindrical ridge, followed by drop breakup. Here we use simulations to discuss in greater detail the effect of varying the obstacle size on the dynamics of the drop bouncing. …”

THE MACQUARIE RIDGE EARTHQUAKE OF 1989 by Das, S

“…A study of the seismicity on the central portion of the Macquarie Ridge before and after the 1989 May 23 Macquarie Ridge earthquake (Mw = 8.2) and the solution of the inverse problem to obtain the moment release time history during the earthquake are presented. …”

Ridge migration, asthenospheric flow and the origin of magmatic segmentation in the global mid-ocean ridge system by Katz, R, Spiegelman, M, Carbotte, S

“…Global observations of mid-ocean ridge (MOR) bathymetry demonstrate an asymmetry in axial depth across ridge offsets that is correlated with the direction of ridge migration. …”

“…ODP Leg 153 drilled five sites on the western wall of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge between 23°20′N and 23°30′N, at distances of 5-35 km south of the Kane Transform (Figure 1). …”

Lower bathyal and abyssal distribution of coral in the axial volcanic ridge of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at 45 degrees N by Morris, K, Tyler, P, Murton, B, Rogers, A

“…Most studies of deep-sea benthic fauna have concentrated on soft sediments with little sampling in rocky areas and even less on non-vent mid-ocean ridges. To assess the distribution and abundance of coral between 2500. m and 3500. m depths, video footage from the ROV Isis taken during a cruise to the Axial Volcanic Ridge (AVR) of the Mid-Atlantic Ridge at approx 45°30' N was analysed. …”

GEOMETRICAL FORM OF ASEISMIC RIDGES, VOLCANOS, AND SEAMOUNTS by Angevine, C, Turcotte, D, Ockendon, J

The Reykjanes Ridge: structure and tectonics of a hot-spot-influenced, slow-spreading ridge, from multibeam bathymetry, gravity and magnetic investigations by Searle, R, Keeton, J, Owens, R, White, R, Mecklenburgh, R, Parsons, B, Lee, S

“…We report a comprehensive morphological, gravity and magnetic survey of the oblique- and slow-spreading Reykjanes Ridge near the Iceland mantle plume. The survey extends from 57.9°N to 62.1°N and from the spreading axis to between 30 km (3 Ma) and 100 km (10 Ma) off-axis; it includes 100 km of one arm of a diachronous 'V-shaped' or 'chevron' ridge. …”

Open-system behaviour in mid-ocean ridge basalts by Gannoun, A, Thomas, L, Burton, K, Schiano, P

ANALYSIS OF ISOSTASY IN THE WORLDS OCEANS .3. ASEISMIC RIDGES by Detrick, R, Watts, A

“…Cross-spectral techniques have been used to analyze the relationship between gravity and bathymetry on 26 profiles across the Walvis and Ninetyeast ridges. The resulting filters or transfer functions have been used to study the state of isostasy at these ridges. …”

Seamount morphology, distribution and structure of the Southwest Indian Ridge by Muller, L

“…<p>Ultra-slow spreading ridges have a full spreading rate of less than 20 mm/yr, and show deviations from the fundamental characteristics identified at faster spreading rates; however, they are poorly studied compared to faster spreading ridges. …”

A ridge-regularized jackknifed Anderson-Rubin test by Dovì, M-S, Kock, AB, Mavroeidis, S

“…Asymptotic size control is established under weaker assumptions than those imposed for recently proposed jackknifed AR tests in the literature. Furthermore, ridge-regularization extends the scope of jackknifed AR tests to situations in which there are more instruments than observations. …”

REACTIVATION OF AN OCEANIC FRACTURE BY THE MACQUARIE RIDGE EARTHQUAKE OF 1989 by Das, S

“…Here I report an example of this phenomenon in which the fault that is reactivated is a nearly 175-km-long segment of an oceanic fracture, and its length is comparable to that of the main shock, the 1989 macquarie Ridge earthquake.…”

Chemical heterogeneity, convection and asymmetry beneath mid-ocean ridges by Pusok, AE, Katz, RF, May, DA, Li, Y

“…Geophysical observations at some mid-ocean ridges document an across-axis asymmetry in indicators of magma production. …”
