TL;DR: The Black Mango fault is a structural discontinuity that transforms motion between two segments of the active Himalayan Frontal Thrust (HFT) in northwestern India that displays evidence of two large surface rupture earthquakes during the past 650 years, subsequent to 1294 A.D.
Abstract: The Black Mango fault is a structural discontinuity that transforms motion between two segments of the active Himalayan Frontal Thrust (HFT) in northwestern India. The Black Mango fault displays evidence of two large surface rupture earthquakes during the past 650 years, subsequent to 1294 A.D. and 1423 A.D., and possibly another rupture at about 260 A.D. Displacement during the last two earthquakes was at minimum 4.6 meters and 2.4 to 4.0 meters, respectively, and possibly larger for the 260 A.D. event. Abandoned terraces of the adjacent Markanda River record uplift due to slip on the underlying HFT of 4.8 +/- 0.9 millimeters per year or greater since the mid-Holocene. The uplift rate is equivalent to rates of fault slip and crustal shortening of 9.6(-3.5)(+7.0) millimeters per year and 8.4(-3.6)(+7.3) millimeters per year, respectively, when it is assumed that the HFT dips 30 degrees +/- 10 degrees.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors provide an integrative analysis of three approaches to person-organization fit theory and measurement: values congruence and personality con-gruence (supplementary fit measures), and work environment con-voyence (a needs-supplies fit measure) Commensurate measures of each aspect of fit were collected from 105 employees in six organizations in the western United States.
Abstract: This study provides an integrative analysis of three approaches to person–organization (P–O) fit theory and measurement: values congruence and personality congruence (supplementary fit measures), and work environment congruence (a needs–supplies fit measure) Commensurate measures of each aspect of fit were collected from 105 employees in six organizations in the western United States Values congruence and work environment congruence were both related to job satisfaction and organizational commitment, but personality congruence was not All three fit measures were related to employees' intent to remain with their employer, although this effect was generally mediated by satisfaction and commitment When multiple fit measures were used in a single analysis, values congruence and work environment congruence had the strongest and most consistent effects on the outcome measures These results suggest a revised, multidimensional model of P–O fit

28 Mar 2005TL;DR: The experimental results illustrate that although RP represents faces in a random, low-dimensional subspace, its overall performance is comparable to that of PCA while having lower computational requirements and being data independent.
Abstract: There has been a strong trend lately in face processing research away from geometric models towards appearance models. Appearance-based methods employ dimensionality reduction to represent faces more compactly in a low-dimensional subspace which is found by optimizing certain criteria. The most popular appearance-based method is the method of eigenfaces that uses Principal Component Analysis (PCA) to represent faces in a low-dimensional subspace spanned by the eigenvectors of the covariance matrix of the data corresponding to the largest eigenvalues (i.e., directions of maximum variance). Recently, Random Projection (RP) has emerged as a powerful method for
dimensionality reduction. It represents a computationally simple and efficient method that preserves the structure of the data without introducing significant distortion. Despite its simplicity, RP has promising theoretical properties that make it an attractive tool for dimensionality reduction. Our focus in this paper is on investigating the feasibility of RP for face recognition. In this context, we have performed a large number of experiments using three popular face databases and comparisons using PCA. Our experimental results illustrate that although RP represents faces in a random, low-dimensional subspace, its overall performance is comparable to that of PCA while having lower computational requirements and being data independent.

TL;DR: In this article, spectral, chemical, morphological, textural, and stratigraphic observations were used to assess whether the silica was produced by acid sulfate leaching of precursor rocks, by precipitation from silica-rich solutions, or by some combination.
Abstract: [1] The presence of outcrops and soil (regolith) rich in opaline silica (∼65–92 wt % SiO2) in association with volcanic materials adjacent to the “Home Plate” feature in Gusev crater is evidence for hydrothermal conditions. The Spirit rover has supplied a diverse set of observations that are used here to better understand the formation of silica and the activity, abundance, and fate of water in the first hydrothermal system to be explored in situ on Mars. We apply spectral, chemical, morphological, textural, and stratigraphic observations to assess whether the silica was produced by acid sulfate leaching of precursor rocks, by precipitation from silica-rich solutions, or by some combination. The apparent lack of S enrichment and the relatively low oxidation state of the Home Plate silica-rich materials appear inconsistent with the originally proposed Hawaiian analog for fumarolic acid sulfate leaching. The stratiform distribution of the silica-rich outcrops and their porous and brecciated microtextures are consistent with sinter produced by silica precipitation. There is no evidence for crystalline quartz phases among the silica occurrences, an indication of the lack of diagenetic maturation following the production of the amorphous opaline phase.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors presented a mapping of pulverized fault zone rocks along a 140 km long section of the San Andreas Fault in the Mojave Desert, showing that almost every outcrop of crystalline rock within about 100 m wide belt along this fault section is pulverised and lacks significant shear.
