Compressional stress fields which likely formed Memnonia Fossae and Mangala Valles, expected from the dike emplacement model of Wilson and Head (JGR 107:1-1–1-20022002), may have facilitated undercompaction or overpressurization of subsurface fluids, focused pore fluids beneath the basin, and opened conduits along faults for upwelling voluminous sediments and fluids.
[C3.] Oil Pipeline Links Caspian Sea to the Mediterranean A long-awaited $3.6 billion oil pipeline linking the Caspian Sea to the Mediterranean took its first flow of crude from Azerbaijan, opening a conduit that may help reduce Western dependence on Middle Eastern oil.
At a critical overpressure exceeding the tensile strength of the impermeable cap rocks sealing the top of the hydrothermal system, the rocks fail and fluids discharge and erupt by opening a conduit to the surface crater, generating the SPT seismicity and allowing the hydrothermal reservoir to deflate.
I sometimes feel like that; like I am this open conduit through which I let other energies pass.
And the run, Neil wrote, was "a huge open conduit of twisted, burned silver", one long ribbon of ice winding down the mountain.
But again, in a country where studies have found that 11percentt of women of child-bearing age are infected with H.I.V., the practice presents an open conduit for childhood infections.
With the lake gate sealed, failure of the 17th Street canal walls – so important in the last disaster — would not have been as dire a situation as it was in 2005, when the canal became an open conduit for Lake Pontchartrain to spill deep into the city.
When the English traveller Isabella Bird Bishop came in the 1890s and laid eyes on the Cheonggyecheon – sardonically describing it as "one of the 'sights' of Seoul" – she wrote of "a wide, walled, open conduit, along which a dark-coloured festering stream slowly drags its malodorous length, among manure and refuse heaps which cover up most of what was once its shingly bed".
We simulate an open conduit and changes in the conduit radius caused by magma pressure.
(a) Schematic illustration of the magma ascent process in an open conduit.
