Great Basin NP, NV, Miocene ANALEMMA Anomaly and ELLIPSE


SUMMARY:
WHEELER PEAK AND GREAT BASIN NP ARE OF 7 M.Y. AGE, AND ARE PART OF A LARGER ANOMALY AT 41 M.Y. (SPECULATED TO BE CAUSED BY AN INCREASE OF THE EQUINOXIAL CYCLE FROM 20.5 DEGREES, TO THE PRESENT 21.5 TO 24.5 TILT OF THE POLES).
EQUINOX SHIFT of 3 degrees (21.5 to 24.5?) is measured between the GAKKEL and LOMOMOTOV RIDGES for the TIME INTERVAL of 41 m.y.; SINCE GAKKEL SPREADING RIDGE has HEAT EMISSIONS, this is PROBABLY the AGE also. I have found this TIME INTERVAL in many locations: the ALEUTIANS, CENTRAL AMERICA, OLYMPIC MTS, WA, and now at the CRITICAL LOCATION- the NORTH POLE! THIS TILT IS EXPRESSED AS A TILT OF THE MOUNTAIN RANGES- UP TO THE WEST FOR B&R, AND DRAINAGES ARE TO THE EAST, AND WELL-DEVELOPED 1 M.Y. ALLUVIAL FANS. THE SOLAR TIDES ARE DOMINANT IN THE B&R, WHERE MOVEMENT OF NEW RANGES ARE TO THE EAST, IN A TOTAL OF 13 (EXTRUSIONS AT THE ID, UT, NV BORDERS: 12?), DETERMINED BY THE EARTH-MOON-SUN COMBO IN A 12-13 FULL MOON CYCLE, AUGMENTED BY JUPITER- WHICH HAS A 12 YEAR ORBIT AROUND THE SUN. MAJOR DRAINAGES OCCUR IN CANYONS, WHICH ARE ORIENTED BY SOLAR TIDES- WHERE A LINEAR (NOT A CURVILINEAR) "SPLITS" THE CRUST ALLOWING ATMOSPHERIC PRECIPITATION TO FIND THESE WEAKNESSES AND GRADUALLY DEVELOP MAJOR CANYONS. THESE ARE IDENTIFIED BY CONVEX TO THE NORTH ARCS ON THE NORTH SIDE OF CANYONS AND CONVEX TO THE SOUTH ON THE SOUTH SIDE- CREATING CANYONS WHICH FOLLOW THE SHEAR AT 10.24MM/YEAR. THESE "SPLITS" ARE YOUNGER THAN THE DRAINAGES, SINCE WATER FLOWS FROM ANY RISE, AND THE RISE MUST BE SIGNIFICANTLY HIGH IN ELEVATION FOR THE CANYONS TO WIDEN AND PRODUCE MORE SEDIMENTATION TO THE EAST. AN ANALEMMA IS FORMING, WITH THE MAJOR DIVISOR BEING ON THE WEST SIDE OF THE RANGE- WHERE A SMALLER ARC IS FOUND. THE RATIO OF DIAMETERS OF THE CCW/CW ROTATIONS IS 1.6- WHICH IS THE SAME AS THE ORBITS OF EARTH/VENUS. SMALLER ANALEMMAS ARE FOUND, AND THE LARGER MUST BE DETERMINED FIRST FOR AN APPROPRIATE ANALYSIS. THE LARGEST ANALEMMA IS SIGNIFIANTLY DIFFERENT FROM THOSE ON THE COLORADO PLATEAU, CP, SINCE THE TILT OF THE RANGE HAS PRODUCED A TRUNCATED CCW RISE AT WHEELER PEAK. THIS IS DUE TO THE SOLAR TIDES SHOVING THE WHOLE RANGE EASTWARD- ABANDONING THE OLD TRACE TO THE WEST, AS THE RANGE MOVES EASTWARD. NEW RANGES ARE PRODUCED EACH 1-2 M.Y., AND THE CYCLE IS NOW TERMINATTED WITH THE 12-13 RANGES PORTRAYED (END OF THE CYCLE OCCURS AT THE 13TH RANGE).


Google earth photo above shows how CANYONS ARE FORMED, when SOLAR TIDES OFFSET LUNAR TIDES. Two ARCS ARE CONVEX in opposing directions, which opens a LINEAR SLICE of the crust. This weakens the rock (with the shear along the advancing SLICE), and over TIME- HALF MILLION YEARS, IN THIS CASE- the atmospheric precipitation "finds" the weaknesses. These canyons are shown younger than the OUTWASH PLAIN to the east, and that is to be expected- since CANYONS OPEN NOTICEABLY as the sediments wash away (sedimentation follows the slightest rise, and canyons develop after a significant rise). This type of ACTION- OPENING of CANYONS in the CRUST- is RARE- DEVELOPING ONLY in the NE corners of BLOCKS of CRUSTAL-TRAPEZOIDS DEFINED by analemmas, where the RATIO of CCW/CW ARCUATE FEATURES (RISE/SINK) = 1.6, the same as the RATIO of orbit times for EARTH/VENUS. EXAMPLES easily seen on GOOGLE EARTH include GULF of MEXICO, the ALEUTIAN SPIRAL, and the CENTRAL AMERICAN CURLICUE.
INTERMEDIATE SUMMARY:
WESTWARD-MOVING EARTH TIDES are exhibited in The GREAT BASIN NP. It is youthful- less than 8 m.y. and lies within a larger 41 m.y. elliptical arrangement of the BASIN and Range Province. It exhibits actively-moving MILANKOVITCH CYCLES of 100 k.y. and younger arcuate-shearing features, easily measured on GOOGLE EARTH. ALLUVIAL FANS may be measured for AGE, and the drainages to the east may be seen to be augmented by small canyons created by opposing EARTH TIDES- allowing water to rise near the east edge of the rise. Advancement of the RANGE to the west may be measured by westward-moving ELLIPSES, moving at a separation of 40 meters per cycle, for 4000 year cycles (10 mm/Year).


The Great Basin is approximately 7 m.y. in AGE, and it is part of a larger feature- the 41 m.y. ELLIPSE within which it rotates. This is shown in the above GOOGLE EARTH view, where the CW rotation of the larger basin borders on the GREAT SALT LAKE. The Great Salt Lake, bordering the Wasatch Range shows that the Great Basin is rotating CW, since all sinks rotate similarly. Remember that RISES rotate CCW (the bordering CP), and they mesh with the adjoining SINK, CREATING ONLY MINOR HEAT and VULCANISM. The age of 41 m.y. is a major indicator of EARTH CHANGE, since this age occurs for the following:
1. The rise of the Sierras, in California;
2. The incipience of the Central American curlicue;
3. The initiation of vulcanism near Taos, NM, in the Llano Quemado- which proceeded to erupt to the west around the southern edge of CP;
4. The formation of an analemma in the Gulf of Mexico;
5. Rotation of the Great Plains, from the Mississippi River to the gap in the Rocky mountains, at the Arkansas River gorge; and,
6. Over-riding of the continent at the Olympic Mountains, WA- as evidenced by the Eocene rocks at the base of the anomaly.
A PREVIOUS BLOG THIS YEAR (SCROLL TO EARLIER SUBMISSIONS) HAS SPECULATED THAT THERE WAS A SIGNIFICANT CHANGE IN the TILT OF THE POLES AT THE 41 M.Y. AGE, BASED ON THE APPEARANCE OF THE KIMMEI SEA-MOUNT OF 41 M.Y (in the Hawaiian-Emperor seamount chain) RADIOACTIVITY-DATED AGE. NOW THIS NEW FINDING THAT THE GREAT BASIN STARTED ROTATING AT THE SAME AGE GIVES ADDITIONAL CREDENCE TO THIS SPECULATION.
LOOKING AT SMALLER DISTANCES AND TIMES, WE FIND THAT THE SOLAR TIDES ARE INVOLVED, SUCH AS TO CREATE CONVEX ARCS TO THE EAST. ALONG WITH THESE, THERE ARE STRAIGHT LINE LINEARS (NOT CURVILINEARS), WHICH OCCUR WITH INSTABILITIES OF GRAVITATIONAL WAVES. DATES CALCULATED AT OR NEAR THESE LINEARS ARE HIGHLY SUSCEPTIBLE TO LARGE ERRORS, AS WAS SHOWN FOR THOSE OCCURRING NEAR SULLIVAN KNOLL, UT, in an earlier submission.


I HAVE FOUND THAT A LINEAR (A STRAIGHT-LINE OR TROUGH) IN THE NE CORNER OF A TRAPEZOIDAL BLOCK OF EARTH CRUST, BORDERED BY CONVEX TO THE EAST (SOLAR) AND CONVEX TO THE WEST (LUNAR)- OPPOSITELY-OCCURING ARCS ABOUT THE LINEAR ESTABLISHES A MAJOR GRAVITATIONAL SPLIT. THIS "FIXES" AN UPLIFT, WITHIN WHICH THERE DEVELOPS A CANYON OR TROUGH. THE TROUGH WILL ALLOW HEAT, ANOMALOUS WATER, OR VULCANISM TO RISE. THIS IS THE CLASSIC CANYON FORMATION. NOTICE THAT THIS OCCURS SEVERAL TIMES IN THE GREAT BASIN:

NOTICE THAT THE SINKS IN THE VALLEY TO THE EAST ARE ONLY OF 1 M.Y DURATION. THIS TIME IS AN INTERVAL, NOT PERTINENT TO THE INITIATION OF THE GREAT BASIN UPLIFT- WHICH STARTED IN MIOCENE TIME. RADIO-DATING ESTABLISHES AN AGE PRIOR TO NOW. ARCUATE ROTATIONS OCCUR, AND ARE PRESERVED, FOR AN INDETERMINATE PERIOD- SINCE TIME OF DEVELOPMENT (THIS COULD BE THE AGE). IF THEY ARE IN PROGRESS, AGE WILL BE THE SAME AS THE TIME INTERVAL. SINCE MILANKOVITCH CYCLES MAY PERSIST (IN VIEW), THEY MAY NOT YET BE ERODED FROM THEIR INITIAL LOCATION. HENCE, ONLY WHEN TWO ARCS ARE ADJACENT, CAN WE BE SURE THAT THEY FOLLOW EACH OTHER, IN TIME SEQUENCE.
WHAT WE HAVE FOUND PERTAINS TO GRAVITATIONAL WAVES, WHICH ALLOW FEATURES IN NE CORNERS OF CRUSTAL BLOCKS TO EXHIBIT AN "INSTABILITY OF THE WAVES". I SPECULATE THAT THIS OCCURS IN 3 DIMENSIONS IN THE ATMOSPHERE AND IN SPACE, WHERE INSTABILITIES PREVENT PLANETS' LOCATIONS IN THE ASTEROID, KUIPER, AND OORT BELTS. IN SHORT, THIS RELATES A NEW ACTIVITY OF GRAVITATION- WHICH BEHAVES SIMILARLY TO LIGHT (VELOCITY, WAVE NATURE, AND FREQUENCY?)


GREAT BASIN has developed alluvial fans on the slopes to the west, and DRAINAGES to the east. These result from EARTH TIDES, where solar offsets lunar- convex to the west- and where a LINEAR SEPARATES the opposing movements to the east and opens the sediments for springs, seeps, and warm water. This allows shallow water for farms and "GOOD LIVING" along the edge of the basins. NOTICE the opposing ARCS along the drainage to the east.

ABOVE IS A FINAL ASSESSMENT OF THE LARGER REGION ABOUT THE GREAT BASIN NP, NV: THIS PHOTO SHOWS THAT THE ANALEMMAS IN THE B&R PROVINCE ARE MORE COMPLICATED THAN THOSE IN THE COLORADO PLATEAU, CP! SINCE THE MOUNTAIN RANGE IS TILTED UP TO THE WEST (OLDER FORMATIONS ARE EXPOSED ON THE WEST SIDE OF WHEELER PEAK), THERE ARE ALLUVIAL FANS ON THE EAST SIDE AND STARK SCARPS ON THE WEST. THE DRAINAGES THEREFORE FLOW TO THE EAST, SINCE THEY CANNOT CLIMB THE GRADE TO THE WEST. THE DATE OF 7 M.Y. IS CONFIRMED FOR THE OVERALL AGE OF THE RANGE, WHICH IS A PART OF A LARGER ANOMALY, STARTING AT 41 M.Y. (I SUSPECT THIS WAS INITIATED BY A SHIFT OF THE EQUINOXIAL CYCLE FROM 20.5 TO THE PRESENT 23.5 DEGREES- OF A CYCLE OF 21.5-24.5 DEGREES.) THIS IS PART OF A 13 M.Y. MOVEMENT, WHICH PRODUCES THE RHYOLITIC EXTRUSIONS AT THE IDAHO BORDER, AND THESE MOVE EAST-WARD BECAUSE OF THE DOMINANCE OF SOLAR TIDES IN THE B&R. THERE ARE LUNAR TIDES, AND THEY ARE ON THE WEST SIDE OF RANGES (WHICH ARE CONNVEX TO THE WEST); THEY DETERMINE THE SMALLER ARCS FOUND THERE, SO THAT THERE OCCUR MOVEMENTS TO THE WEST- SUCH AS THE SIERRAS PRODUCING THE MAMMOTH HOT SPRINGS ANOMALY. THIS IS FOLLOWED BY LINEAR-PRODUCING SOLAR TIDES EACH 1-2 M.Y. AND THIS IS THE DOMINANT ENTITY IN THE B&R.


GREAT BASIN RANGES move eastward with TIME since their incipience at MIOCENE 13 m.y. AGE:
ABOVE GOOGLE PHOTO divulges that the B&R has moved eastward, as it has created further east N-S ranges each million year period. This is followed by a west-developing arcuate range in the 2 million year entity; the succession is:
1. The Sierras move westward (41 m.y. uplift with the speculated EQUINOX TRANSITION from 20.5 degrees, arcuate CONVEX to the west), which opens the immediate valley to the east- such as MAMMOTH LAKE and HOT SPRINGS. This valley is then followed by a 1 m.y. RANGE to the east (RISE within a SINK);
2. THE FOLLOWING 13 (12?) m.y. TIME INTERVAL produces a series of N-S ranges, terminating at the TRANSITION ZONE, adjacent to CP;
3. Great basin is the 7th in the series of the 13 (or 12th?) proceeding towards the CP transition zone- which terminates the MIOCENE origination of ranges and valleys within the CW rotation around the entire B&R (including the 12-13 rhyolitic extrusions at the north border- SNAKE RIVER and Yellowstone blasts); and,
4. Each million year range is followed by a 2 m.y. rotation to the west (convex west)- developing an elliptical basin. These fit within an ANALEMMA which includes the large RISE and the somewhat smaller SINK (BASIN).
ALL OF THIS IS FASHIONED BY THE GRAVITATIONAL ADJUSTMENTS OF MOONS, PLANETS, AND SUN of the EARTH’s WOBBLES, with the exception of about 4% influence from HEAT from the SUN and radioactivity, magnetic-electrical variations, and extra-solar anomalies.
ABOVE PHOTO INDICATES THAT LAKE SEVIER (DRY) is the FOCAL POINT of a large rotation TANGENT to the GREAT BASIN; this is approximately 16 m.y. AGE, and hints that the destructive EVENT of FLOOD BASALTS IN WA AND OR was a continent-shaking AFFAIR:
GREAT BASIN NP, NV is located at the UT BORDER, and contains the 2nd largest peak in Nevada. It yields information about the formation of the B&R VALLEYS and RANGES. It also pertains to the SHIFT of the EQUINOX at the 41 (40.96?) INFLECTION, shown elsewhere at the KIMMEI SEAMOUNT, CENTRAL AMERICA CURLICUE, THE ALEUTIAN SPIRAL, and the MENDOCINO 40N TRANSFORM.
ABOVE PHOTO SHOWS THE LINEAR FEATURE JUST EAST OF THE WASATCH LINE, WHERE THERE IS A CIRCULAR ARRANGEMENT WHICH CONTAINS A LINEAR SPLITTING IT. THIS SIGNIFIES THAT THERE WAS A REVERSAL OF LUNAR VS. SOLAR TIDES, AS WELL AS AN ANOMALY IN THE EQUINOXIAL ANGLE (CURRENTLY 23.5, BUT EARLIER 21.5 DEGREES TILT). THIS IS ENLARGED TO VIEW THE WESTERN USA, SO AS TO DETERMINE THE RELATION OF G.B. TO THE FORMATION OF THE ROCKY MOUNTAINS, AND FINALLY TO THE CONTINENTAL SHELF:
ANALYSIS of the 41 m.y. EVENT, DISPLAYED in many OUTCROPS The first notice of the 41 m.y. was found in the Kimmei Seamount- a fulcrum of the rotation of the HI-Emperor Chain. The rotation of the chain at that point is not precise, and the 45 degree turn takes a few million years to make the transition of the chain to one of roughly NW-SE orientation. This slow transition seems to be typical of these earth movements- where the PTr, or Permian-Triassic transition, (which left most fossils absent in the Triassic) required a few million years to allow the Petrified remains of trees to become obvious. Later, it was noticed that the calculated 41 m.y. event was found in the Aleutian Spiral, the Central American curlicue, the rise of the Sierras, the initiation of basaltic extrusion in the llano Quemado (Taos, NM), and the start of over-ride of the Olympic Peninsula. The 40N latitude Mendocino TRANSFORM connects with the large rotation at the Kimmei seamount, and this slice has replicated itself many times- calculated to have occurred since 192 m.y. AGE. There are as many as 5 slices parallel- roughly- to each other. Previously, I have indicated that the 41 m.y event is related to the change of the angle of the EQUINOX, from a smaller magnitude to that near the present 23.5 degrees, by the relation: 41m.y./2 m.y. ELTANIN EVENT= 20.5- a harmonic of the EARTH’S “ ringing” mechanism, where 360 degrees refers to a circumference of approximately 40,000 km (333.33 km/3 degrees of latitude- less than 20.6% deviation, from the 420 km- measured at the GAKKEL-LOMONOTOV separation). There is still doubt as to the applicability of the number 41, compared to 40.96 m.y., as would be indicated by the BINARY THEOREM. The hundredth harmonic of the series: .02, .04, 08, .16, .32, .64, 1.28, 2.56, 5.12, 10.24, 20.48, and 40.96 indicates that this should be the magnitude of such cycles as the MILANKOVITCH AXIAL ROTATION (k.y.), and the age of the MOON, in b.y. since the measured radioactivity AGES of such events as KT (65 m.y.) and PTr (251) have a less than 4% variation from the BINARY THEOREM (64 and 256 m.y.). I take this to be departures due to non-gravitational influences. These could be due to magnetic-electrical, thermal, or extra-SOLAR event, and I have made NO DETERMINATION of the one which is pertinent to GRAVITY ALONE. WE CAN EXPLORE the pertinence of both by use of RATIOS, such as the EARTH/VENUS ORBITAL CYCLES (days/year)= 1.62, from calculation, and from ccw features/cw rotations of crust- such as ANALEMMAS shown by the Aleutian Spiral, DAILY WEATHER LOW/HIGH PRESSURE CELLS, or by measured diameters of CP/B&R ARCUATE FEATURES in the EARTH’S CRUST. I have measured both 1.6 and 1.62, so that the evidence presents a MIXED BAG. CALCULATIONS YIELD: 40 k.y. AXIAL WOBBLE/25 k.y. PRECESSIONAL= 1.6, but the Precessional angle varies over a cycle from 21.5 to 24.5 degrees (literature reported), so that 40/21.5= 1.86, to 40/24.5= 1.63. The present calculation is: 40/23.5= 1.70- which yields NO CONCLUSION! ALTERNATIVELY, 40.96/21.5= 1.9; 40.96/24.5= 1.67, and these are close to: 41/21.5= 1.907; 41/24.5= 1.673. it appears that the RATIO 1.63, for 40,000/25.5 k.y. is closest to the 1.6 ratio I get from GOOGLE EARTH, so that I will continue to amass data which is measured, and NOT CALCULATED! Below is that for the COLORADO PLATEAU/BASIN and RANGE:
Digital photos, taken on an expedition May 4,5 2012 are shown below. I had 2 objectives: 1. Find a PC outcrop of AGE 1.024 B.Y. OR MORE, to determine whether there are more that have "escaped" the great UNCONFORMITY (SCALPING) found in the GRAND CANYON in a GRABEN. I hope to shed more light on the "EJECTION" of half b.y. or at least 96 km of missing stratigraphic column (except for elliptical waves found from AZ to Canada), and 2. Determine whether the Snake Range has expanded, starting in the POST-mesozoic, at about the 41 m.y.

GOLD was found to the west of present GB NP, in the Osceola area to the NW. This area has a good gravel road, where MIMA MOUND and analemma ANOMALIES may be seen:
An ALLUVIAL FAN is unusual, being older than a 100 k.y. cycle, enough to have allowed junipers to proliferate (notice the ones to the south are scant, as is the SEPARATION of the Drainages- which are wider and older to the NORTH:
SCHELL CREEK has beeen documented via an erxcellent LANDSAAT 5 SATELLITE PHOTO (availlable at the NPS visitor centers), and it shows EARTH TIDE INFORMATION and ARCS clearly for calculations- better than GOOGLE EARTH. LOOK for both LINEARS and curvilinears, which allow calculation of INTERVAL TIMES for development of analemmas, trapezoids, and MILAQNKOVITCH CYCLES:
SCHELL RANGE IS THE NEXT TO THE WEST, TRENDING N-S, AND EXPECTED TO MIRROR the SNAKE RANGE. Upon expanding or exhibiting EXTENSION, TWO RANGES SHOULD PULL APART WITH TIME, AT A RATE of 20.48 mm/yr, if both are arcuate to the WEST, or 10.24, if opposing arcs occur.
AUSTIN, NV has a SCARP which divides the BASIN and RANGE into the western part- an older 7-13 m.y. greatly eroded region, and the EASTERN PART, INCLUDING GREAT BASIN NP- which is less than 8 m.y. AGE. This is regular, due to expansion or EXTENSION to the east. Simultaneous with this, 13 violent RHYOLITIC EXTRUSIONS OCCURRED (until present 3 ATTEMPT Yellowstone calderas). NOT TO WORRY, the trend cannot push east of the ROCKIES, since earth tides cause the ROCKIES TO PUSH TO THE WEST!
VARIOUS VIEWS of the DIVIDING SCARP are shown below:
The anomalies and SCARP have provided a rich MINERAL DISTRICT!
