A comprehensive geological, geochemical, and petrogenetic study of hotspot-related oceanic basalt-rhyolite series rocks from Ascension Island, South Atlantic Ocean.
(1997)The mafic rocks (basalt-hawaiite-mugearite-benmoreite) of Ascension Island form four distinct groups: low Zr/Nb hawaiite, high Zr/Nb basalt, intermediate Zr/Nb basalt to benmoreite, and Dark Slope Crater (DSC) hawaiite and ... -

CONTROLS OF PRE-EXISTING NORMAL FAULTS ON THE GEOMETRY AND LOCATION OF THRUST FAULTS IN FOLD-THRUST BELTS
(2016)Pre-existing normal faults are commonly cited as influencing both the sequence of faulting and the location of thrust faults in fold-thrust belts. Scaled experimental models for both frictional and ductile detachments were ... -
Correlation of Atoka and adjacent strata within a sequence stratigraphic framework, Arkoma Basin, Oklahoma.
(2004)The Atoka Formation in the Arkoma Basin represents the thickest stratigraphic interval. The purpose of this study is to delineate the stratigraphy of this formation in the entire Arkoma Basin in Oklahoma, using detailed ... -
Deltaic Sedimentation and Stratigraphy of the Late Cretaceous Frontier Formation in the Southeast Bighorn Basin, Wyoming
(2019-05-10)Regional subsurface mapping of the Cretaceous Frontier Formation indicates that it was deposited as discrete deltaic lobes within the Cretaceous Western Interior Seaway (KWIS). The source of sediment was to the west and ... -
Depositional History and Provenance Analysis of the Permian-Aged Garber Sandstone, Central Oklahoma
(2023-05)The Lower Permian Kungurian (Leonardian) Garber Sandstone records a time of profound climatic and tectonic transition in central Pangea with the collapse of an icehouse climate, inception of Pangean monsoonal circulation, ... -
A DETAILED ANALYSIS OF RIFT RELATED STRUCTURES: INSIGHTS FROM LASER SCANNED CLAY MODELS AND 3-D SEISMIC INTERPRETATION
(2014-05)Rifting describes the process of crustal stretching through which the brittle upper crust is subjected to extensional deformation (Falvey, 1974; Bally and Snelson, 1980; Wernicke and Burchfiel, 1982; Steckler, 1985; McKenzie, ... -
DETAILED LITHOSTRATIGRAPHIC CHARACTERIZATION AND SEQUENCE STRATIGRAPHY OF A COMPLETE WOODFORD SHALE OUTCROP SECTION IN SOUTHERN OKLAHOMA
(2017-08)This work presents a detailed rock-based and stratigraphic documentation of an unpublished and recently discovered Woodford Shale outcrop in the south flank of the Arbuckle Mountains (southern Oklahoma). The exposed section ... -
Dynamic Shear Rupture along Faults: Experiments and Simulations
(2013-12-14)Earthquakes are events of unstable shear rupture that propagate along fault-zones in the crust. Earthquake rupture processes have been the focus of experimental analyses and numerical simulations, yet many details are still ... -
Effect of diagenesis upon clay mineral content of interlaminated Desmoinesian sandstones and shales in Oklahoma /
(The University of Oklahoma., 1969) -
Effect of pressure depletion on hydrocarbon recovery in naturally fractured reservoirs.
(2006)The link between well test analysis, the material balance equation, and the elastic properties of the rock resides in the fluid storage capacity. Thus, in this study, the influence of stress on the mechanical behavior of ... -
Elemental and stable carbon isotope chemostratigraphy of the Upper Jurassic Smackover sequence of southwest Alabama basins, Alabama, United States.
(2004)The sequence stratigraphy of the Upper Jurassic (Oxfordian) Smackover marine carbonate sequence was investigated from a chemostratigraphic analysis of samples of the Conecuh Embayment and the Manila Embayment of southwest ... -
Experimental determination of partition coefficients for calcium, strontium, and barium in aragonite precipitated from sea water at low temperatures /

FLUVIAL ARCHITECTURE OF THE BURRO CANYON FORMATION USING UAV-BASED PHOTOGRAMMETRY AND OUTCROP-BASED MODELING: IMPLICATIONS FOR RESERVOIR PERFORMANCE, RATTLESNAKE CANYON, SOUTHWESTERN PICEANCE BASIN, COLORADO
(2018)The stratigraphic variability of fluvial architectural elements and their internal lithological and petrophysical heterogeneity influence static connectivity and fluid flow. To explore the impact of fluvial architecture ... -

The geoarchaeology of Day Creek chert: Lithostratigraphy, petrology, and the indigenous landscape of northwest Oklahoma and southwest Kansas.
(2000)This research is designed to investigate the geoarchaeology of Day Creek chert. Located in the southern Great Plains of the United States, Day Creek chert supplied an important lithic raw material for prehistoric populations. ... -
The geochemical budget of beryllium in silicic melts and superliquidus, subliquidus, and starting state effects on the kinetics of crystallization in hydrous haplogranite melts.
(2001)1. An investigation of cordierite-beryl equilibria in hydrous granitic melts using forward- and reversed-direction experiments from 675 to 900° C at 200 MPa (PH2O) has revealed the elucidate limits and mechanisms of ... -
Geochemical characterization of solid bitumen deposited within the Mississippian sandstone reservoir of the Hitch Field, southwest Kansas.
(2006)The occurrence of solid bitumen in petroleum reservoirs is a common phenomenon in many petroliferous basins worldwide. Solid bitumen was recently identified within the Upper Mississippian (Chesterian) sandstone reservoir ... -
