He forgot about the volcano, Mammoth Mountain may still be active in CA. It is on the western end of the Long Valley Caldera and the most southerly of possible active volcanoes on the west coast.. There is still a lot of volcanic phenomena in that area, especially hot springs and even a geyser they turned into a geothermal power plant. This isn't like the Cascade volcanoes, it's leftover from the LV Caldera. Mammoth last erupted with a steam eruption or phreatic eruption about 700 years ago. It's last full eruption was 57,000 years ago so some geologists don't consider it active because it hasn't erupted for 10,000 years, but since 1989 there has been a lot of activity and they are not sure why.

Hi Mr. Zentner, a question please; The East Pacific Rise is a spot where magma is welling up to create crustal plate? Is it an active upwelling force? Or is the magma just sitting there minding its own business, and rises/cools by simply getting exposed? I'm basically curious about the "drivers" in the mechanism of spreading centers, and what happens to that deep energy/magma supplier once their surface spreading centers get subducted. After all, the crust is just along for the ride, right? I'm in SoCal, so I'm curious about the the power source that was once driving the old plate, (now gobbled up) which is now presumably underneath us. What's it doing now? TY!
@Ellensburg447 жыл бұрын
Hi Ben. All spreading centers (EPR, MAR, etc) are places where asthenosphere material is able to successfully rise to the surface. Am not sure we understand - even here in 2017 - what drives the plate motions. Also unclear....is the EPR still active in places where NA has drifted over the spreading ridge. The answers lie with geophyiscs - stuff I do not understand. Would love to use some of the data from those depths...but need to find data that is accepted by all in the scientific community....not sure that exists at present. Thanks for the questions.

NA has gone over EPR in California if I understand right. No more Vulcanism just plain erosion and somehow the granite mountains rise ..what makes them rise? It isn't compression because we just floated over the plate? Isn't it a case of a 'hottie' being overlooked and just 'steaming' to get one back? All that EPR work is still going on after all ..just got new 'management'.

I think what I am trying to ponder is that the 'over run EPR' isn't going to stop, it'll just find a new way to expend it's energies, or are we assuming total subduction once subducted?

@julieenslow59154 жыл бұрын
MariusVan He actually suggested it in this lecture. On his pictures of maps - there is one where you are looking up the entire west coast of the US. He points out California area which has moved over (and part is of it is directly over the East Pacific Rise) and casually refers to the San Andreas and areas around it. If you observe - this area has mountains that are not nearly as big or impressive as the Cascades - and in his lecture he tells how the volcanoes have a 2 million year life cycle. Plate movement is slow - so I deduced that this area in California includes where old volcanoes are eroding away - and no new volcano activity means no new mountains are forming (at least not by volcanoes). If you call living on the San Andreas "very spicy" then yes - I think that is what will be happening when the rest of the NA hits the East Pacific Rise.

So when a continental plate moves over a sea floor spreading rift zone, the volcanism of the rift shuts down right? But why would this be? A hot spot doesn't shut down, it'll burn right through the cont. plate and a rift zone is tearing Africa apart. Why wouldn't the volcanism that causes the rifting continue to function under the cont. plate? Maybe this is why the SW USA has all those super volcanoes in almost clusters, the volcanism hasn't stopped but it can't "rift" apart the cont. plate so the magma builds up until it bursts through in a super volcano. Just an idea and my main question is why the rift zone would shut down when a cont. plate overriding it only affects the very top of the volcanism involved, especially when it seems that doing so would increase the rifting activity as more heat would build up over longer times (the overriding plate acting like a blanket).

Is Pendleton, OR (the central focus of the circling NA plate movement), like Beacon Rock pluton, like the Cannon Beach ocean plutons, and this area was a massive single or multiple hotspots (as I was told) that this hotspot moved up the Snake River, and into Yellowstone. So there would be 2 major hotspot trails (WA/OR) and the NV lava beds up to Yellowstone. And that Pendleton area would be the real locations of multiple supervolcano magma chamber like Yellowstone, and this is what caused all the ~300 lava flows, as the Columbia lava basalts are not from the Cascades, let alone from the ancient volcanic sites. If Pendleton was a supermagma chamber and cooled like these other plutons, and far larger and cooled down, as the leftover chamber of the moving to Yellostone hotspot, then this would be a massive pluton that causes the swirling land circling around Pendleton. This pluton would be stable and stay while the upper NA plate swirls around this massive pluton spot.

Interesting note on the Farallon plate and its long reaching effects - some theories point the cause of the New Madrid seismic zone as remnants of the Farallon pulling a weakened section of the North American plate (The Reelfoot rift, The Mississippi Embayment is a good "visual" representation of this failed rift of the NA plate) down with it as it sinks into the mantle. Earthquakes come when the NA plate springs back up. I just thought it was neat the same thing that created the Cascades could also be effecting geology 1000+ miles away.

No matter whether Pacific plate is dragging NW the JDF plate, eventually if the Pacific is moving faster (and JDF also), versus the NA plate going westward, then the Cascades will cool down and erode, as the subduction zone will reverse out and back into the ocean. If the JDF plate (Farallon plate) goes under the NA plate and moves extremely eastward, and subducts, then the Cascades will cool down, and erode. Either way, the Cascades will eventually cool down, then erode, as the original previous ancient (now dead and gone) volcanoes. One wonders whether the West or East WA (and OR lands) will continue to rise, maintain, or decrease and de-elevate with these 2 geological options, and we could get back into a flat land environment as in the most ancient past of lakes, forests, and flatland lava flows.
