Conodont Biostratigraphy of the Upper Osagean (Lower Visean) Ozark Uplift, Southern Midcontinent U.S.A.
Miller, Jeffrey Daniel (2015-12-01)Oil and gas exploration in Mississippian strata of the southern Midcontinent has increased interest in the lateral and vertical trends of reservoir facies and generated a need for more refined facies models. This study ... -
Determination of Moho depth beneath the Okavango and Kafue rift using Spectral Analysis with Piecewise Regression (SAPR) of satellite gravity data
Mily, Farjana Monsur (2023-05)The research investigated the use of satellite gravity data to map the lithospheric structure under the Okavango Rift Zone (ORZ) in northwest Botswana and the Kafue Rift Zone (KRZ) in Zambia. The tectonic extent and ... -
Geologic Record of Paleostorms from Lake and Wetland Sediments of the Great Plains
Mccollum, Mark Samson (2015-05-01)The purpose of this study was to identify the geologic signature of paleostorm events within the mid-continent region. This research aimed to create a better understanding of the long-term geologic history of major storms ... -
High Resolution Geophysical Imaging Reveals Major Faults in the Southern Oklahoma Aulacogen: Implications for Mid-Continent Seismic Hazards
Chase, Brandon (2019-07)While intraplate seismicity can occur anywhere, events frequently localize along preexisting buried basement faults associated with ancient tectonic features and boundaries (ATFBs). Detailed structural study of these ... -
Influence of the Mugese Shear Zone Structures on Strain Accommodation in the Northern Malawi Rift
Dawson, Sam Michael (2016-12-01)The Livingstone border fault, with its 7 km of maximum displacement, accommodates most of the extension in the northern portion of the N-striking Malawi Rift (the southern segment of the Western Branch of the East African ... -
Onset of the neogene-quaternary continental southern Malawi Rift and linkage to the Late Carboniferous-Early Jurassic Shire Rift
Ojo, Oyewande Olumide (2021-07)Previous thermal history models have supported Miocene aged rift initiation in northern Malawi Rift without the thermal history of southern Malawi Rift (which is believed to have initiated at a later time) and its interactions ... -
Origin and Characteristics of Devonian-mississippian Novaculitic Chert in Oklahoma
Cecil, Kyrsti (2016-07-01)Limited research has been performed since 1980 on the origin of novaculitic chert in the Arkansas Novaculite in the Ouachita Orogen of southeastern Oklahoma and in the Woodford Shale in the Oklahoma Shelf. Further research ... -
Re-evaluation of the SCO2 and SC seismic reflection datasets, eastern South Carolina: Implications for tectonic evolution and seismicity
Rohrer, Michael (2020-05)Identification and characterization of the Paleozoic Suwanee basin sedimentary sequence and the associated Pangea supercontinent transcurrent fault are critical in furthering our present understanding of tectonic history ... -
Remote Sensing Analysis and Implications for Groundwater Resources in the Kharga Basin, Egypt
Parks, Shawna Lee (2016-05-01)Identifying new groundwater resources in Africa is important because climate change may cause the Nile recharge to decrease by the end of the century, affecting water stability in the eleven countries that rely on this ... -
Spectral Analysis of Petroleum Reservoir Rock Using Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy
Chatterton, Logan (2015-07-01)Compositional analysis of reservoir rock is a vital aspect of oil exploration and production activities. In a broad sense, knowing the mineral composition of a reservoir can help with characterization and interpretation ... -
Structural framework analysis in the Mississippi Canyon protraction area, Central Gulf of Mexico: Implications for CO₂ sequestration
Sholanke, Seyi (2020-07)Geologic factors such as faults and salt tectonics have implications for the reliability of CO2-Enhanced Oil Recovery (CO₂-EOR) and CO₂ sequestration targets in deep water reservoirs of the Gulf of Mexico. Salt-tectonic ...
