Variation in time averaging and taphonomic character of shell beds in Lake Tanganyika, Africa: Paleoenvironmental and stratigraphic implications of shell beds in rift lakes
(2018-05-11)
Large regions of the littoral lake bottom along structural platforms in Lake Tanganyika, Africa, are carpeted with shell beds of late Holocene age. The viviparous gastropod Neothauma tanganyicense (Neothauma) is the lead ...
CORRELATING RATE OF PENETRATION AND BIT TRIPS TO 3D SURFACE SEISMIC DATA, ANADARKO SHELF, OKLAHOMA
(2016)
While initially thought to be laterally homogeneous, operators quickly realized that unconventional resource plays can exhibit considerable geologic heterogeneity. Since this realization, 3D surface seismic analysis has ...
Heterogeneity of clastic provenance to the Anadarko Basin and implications for paleogeography
(2018)
Thin section petrography and U/Pb detrital zircon geochronology were used to reconstruct Middle-Late Pennsylvanian drainage pathways into the Anadarko Basin, and evaluating the relative proportion of sediment originating ...
COMPARATIVE SEM ANALYSIS OF QUARTZ MICROTEXTURES ON FLUVIAL SAND FROM END-MEMBER CLIMATE SYSTEMS
(2016-05-14)
Microtextural analyses of sedimentary quartz grains are increasingly used as a paleoenvironmental proxy, as particular microtextures have been proposed to reflect processes unique to particular environmental or climatic ...
Comprehensive Reservoir Characterization of the Woodford Shale in Parts of Garfield and Kingfisher Counties, Oklahoma
(2016-12)
This research is a comprehensive characterization of the Woodford Shale within an area of six townships and ranges located at the boundary of Garfield and Kingfisher Counties in Oklahoma.
The methods of the Woodford Shale ...
Vertebrate fossil associations and taphonomy in the Morrison Formation (Upper Jurassic), Cimarron County, Oklahoma
(2007)
The purpose of this project is to evaluate fossil distribution within three dinosaur quarries in the Morrison Formation, excavated in the 1940s, in the panhandle of Oklahoma. The sedimentology and stratigraphy of the ...
