This work presents the application of radar interferometry to detect land subsidence associated with water pumping in El Paso, Texas and adjacent areas. Geological and hydrological information are compared with the radar ...

The Upper Cretaceous Cenomanian Buda Formation and Coniacian-Campanian Austin Chalk Group of Texas and northern Mexico are calcareous mudrock (chalk) successions deposited on the drowned lower Cretaceous Comanche platform. ...

P-wave and S-wave multicomponent seismic data respond to lithology and fluid variations differently, providing interpreters with tools that supply additional information about subsurface geology. To interpret multicomponent ...

The water quality in a karst (limestone) aquifer changes over time, making the application of traditional hydrogeologic principles difficult or impossible. This research's goal was to advance the understanding of the ...

The Cline Shale is an organic-rich mudrock that was deposited in the Midland Basin during the latest Pennsylvanian. Deposits of the Cline Shale are restricted to basinal facies and contain great lateral and vertical ...

The deposits of the Lower Miocene section of the Redfish Bay area along the Texas Gulf Coast were characterized and their systems tracts and depositional environments were interpreted. A three-dimensional seismic volume ...

The Albian Glen Rose Formation has been well known as a shallow shelf carbonate with common patch reef development along the interface between the Comanche Shelf and the Maverick Basin. Stratigraphic analysis of 75 well ...

Jacob's Well is a karst spring that discharges from the Trinity aquifer in central Texas. Ongoing development and increased groundwater pumping in the area around the spring are thought to be impacting the volume of discharge ...

Lignite (brown coal) mine-mouth power plants supply a significance portion of electricity generated annually in Texas. Most lignite is produced from the Wilcox Group at surface mines located near a power plant. At the ...

The combustion of fossil fuels results in the release of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, a known greenhouse gas. Evidence suggests that “most of the observed increase in global average temperatures…is very likely due ...
