Seasonal Influences on the Molecular and Metal Binding Properties of Groundwater & Surface Water Dissolved Organic Matter (DOM) in an Alpine Watershed Located in Central Colorado
(2021-05-16)The nature and behavior of surface water and groundwater chemistry in alpine watersheds is influenced by snowmelt-driven hydrology. This study investigated the effects of seasonal variability in groundwater and surface ... -
Sedimentology, chemofacies, and stratigraphic architecture of the Lower Cretaceous Burro Canyon Formation, Ninemile Hill, Unaweep Canyon, Colorado
(2021-08)Well-exposed outcrops of the Lower Cretaceous Burro Canyon Formation at Ninemile Hill and surrounding areas in western Colorado, provide insight into the depositional characteristics and stratigraphic variability of these ... -
Seismic Stratigraphy of a Circular Concave-Downward Structure, Chukchi Sea
(2017-12-15)A circular concave-downward structure (CCDS) and its structural features and seismic facies can be observed in several 2D seismic lines imaging the Chukchi Sea planning area. The area in question is largely underexplored ... -
STRATIGRAPHIC AND TEXTURAL ANALYSIS OF NANODIAMONDS ACROSS THE YOUNGER DRYAS BOUNDARY SEDIMENTS OF WESTERN OKLAHOMA
(2016)Exposed sediment profiles of the panhandle of western Oklahoma have previously been shown to contain two peak abundances of nanodiamonds, one dated approximately to the Younger Dryas and the other from the Late Holocene. ... -
Structural Survey of the Woodford Shale at McAlister Cemetery Quarry, Carter County, Oklahoma
(2017-05)The focus of this thesis is creating a geologic map of the Woodford Shale in McAlister Cemetery Quarry, and providing data indicating how the bitumen in fractures came to be in this location. Prior studies have focused on ... -
The subsurface geology of the McAlester Basin, Oklahoma

Systematics and Biostratigraphy of Dunderbergia and Related Trilobites from Cambrian (Mid-Steptoean) Strata of Nevada, Utah, Texas, and Newfoundland
(2022-05-13)The Great Basin of Nevada and Utah has been a classic region for Cambrian geology and paleontology for some 150 years. Studies in the late 19th century were prompted by the discovery of commercial ore deposits and led to ... -
Using 3D Seismic Attributes to Investigate Mud Losses in a Fluvial-Deltaic Sand: An Example From the Oliver Sandstone
(2017)Drilling operations in an actively developed basin in Wyoming can experience large quantities of mud losses in a shallow zone along the intermediate (vertical) section of the wellbore. These losses can negatively impact ... -
The Woodford Shale in the Marietta Basin (Oklahoma and North Texas)
(2019-05-10)A geologic characterization of the Woodford Shale in the Marietta Basin has never been published due to the very limited data in the basin. The primary goal of this dissertation is to identify, analyze and interpret the ...
