Chemostratigraphy Of The Upper Cretaceous From Central And South Texas With Focus On The Eagle Ford Group
(Geology, 2013-10-22)
The fine-grained organic-rich rocks of the Eagle Ford (Cenomanian-Turonian) were deposited during the Upper Cretaceous in the shallow waters of the Western Interior Seaway. Five drill cores recovered from two counties, ...
A Model Of Short Term Surface Deformation Of Soufriere Hills Volcano, Montserrat Constrained By GPS Geodesy
(Geology, 2013-10-22)
Geodetic surveying is a core volcano monitoring technique. Measurements of how the crust deforms can give valuable insight into the mechanisms and processes that drive an eruption, and the way in which they change (Odbert ...
Chemostratigraphy Of The Mississippian-age Barnett Formation, Fort Worth Basin, Wise County, Texas USA
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2013-07-22)
The Mississippian- age Barnett Formation is a shale-gas system dominated by fine grained clay- to silt -size particles deposited in the Fort Worth Basin, a peripheral foreland basin that formed during the late Paleozoic ...
Integrated Chemostratigraphy And Paleoceanography Of The Mississippian Barnett Formation
(Geology, 2013-03-20)
The Barnett Formation was deposited on a gently sloping marine margin that ultimately became the Fort Worth Basin (FWB), a foreland basin that evolved during the late Paleozoic Era. The FWB formed as a result of the early ...
High Resolution Geochemistry Of The Cretaceous Eagle Ford Shale, Bee County, Texas
(Geology, 2013-03-20)
The Eagle Ford Formation of Bee County, Texas is a sporadically laminated carbonaceous dark mudrock. The depositional area of the Eagle Ford Formation stretches across the state of Texas in a northeast-southwest trend. ...
Morphology, Mechanisms, And Processes For The Formation Of A Non-bifurcating Fluvial-deltaic Channel Prograding Into Grapevine Reservoir, Texas
(Environmental & Earth Science, 2013-07-22)
Non-bifurcating channels in modern reservoirs, tie channels, and the Mississippi River Bird-Foot Delta share a common morphology that is likely due to an underlying common mechanism. Data analysis indicates that the Denton ...
Fracture Density Of Units In The Brushy Canyon Formation, Whitehorse Group And Winchell Formation Of The Permian Basin.
(Geology, 2013-10-22)
This study tests the theoretical equation(Fd Ua)/μ=A v/(1-2v)+B, where Fd equals the fracture density present in a geologic unit under constant strain conditions. The material properties in the equation were measured using ...
Predicting The Ancient Occurrence Of Coal Deposits Using Paleoclimate Modelling
(Geology, 2013-03-20)
Coals are accumulated and consolidated remains of plant material, which means that in order to form coals, a certain amount of annual precipitation is required. This study uses paleo-precipitation data obtained from Fast ...
Chemostratigraphy And Paleoenvironmental Significance Of The Pennsylvanian Smithwick Formation, Northern Llano Uplift Region, Texas
(Geology, 2013-03-20)
The Early Pennsylvanian (Bashkirian-Moscovian) Smithwick Formation of Central Texas has been previously described as a marine transgressive, fairly homogeneous and fine-grained dark shale sequence with varying local ...
Biomarkers: Review And Application To The Eagle Ford Shale Formation
(Geology, 2013-03-20)
Biomarkers have become an integral part of oil exploration. Gas Chromatography (-Mass Spectrometry) was performed to an oil sample to acquire biomarkers from the sample.The presence, lack of, or abundance of a given compound ...
