Pebbles of meta-rhyolite in schist. Ojo Caliente, New Mexico.
Treiman's Masters Thesis
"Precambrian Geology of the Ojo Caliente Quadrangle, Rio Arriba and Taos Counties, New Mexico."
MS thesis, completed in 1977 at Stanford University, under the kind but sarcastic direction of Dr. R. (Dick) Jahns. Dick prevented me from mapping the Tertiary and Quaternary rocks as "Phanerozoic, undivided." Which seemed patently unfair in light of the common dismissal of ancient rocks as "pre-Cambrian, undivided." The thesis was never published, and does contain at least one serious error: in the metapelites, I misidentified cordierite as plagioclase. Enjoy.
Educational Materials
These web pages and images were made for LPI Teacher training workshops.
- Types of Volcanos. Images and descriptions of nine (9) types of volcanos. Not 3. Grumpy.
- Maps of Mars. Albedo, elevation, shaded topography, water abundance, magnetism. In several sizes.
- Posters Comparing Mars and Earth. Valles Mariners vs. Grand Canyon. Impact craters, cinder cones, shield volcanos, caldera complex volcanos.
- Geologic History of Yellowstone. Geologic maps of the different stages of eruption and history, overlaid on a Space Shuttle image.
- Geologic History of the Valles Caldera. Geologic maps of the different stages of eruption and history, overlaid on a Space Shuttle image.
- Photos of the Valles Caldera. On-the-ground images to complement the geologic history above.
Reports
- The Frass Rock. Report to NASA Legislative Affairs office on whether a constituent's rock is a meteorite. It was not. Includes geochemical tests from bulk and trace element analyses.
- "Curation of Geological Materials at a Lunar Outpost." Report, 1983, for the JSC Curator's Office related to planning for the First Lunar Outpost (FLO).
- "Life (?) in Martian Meteorite ALH 84001." Old web pages, 1996-2000, trying to explain the brouhaha about ALH 84001 for non-specialists.
