Geologic sequestration has been suggested as a viable method for greenhouse gas emission reduction. Regional studies of CO₂ storage capacity are used to estimate available storage, yet little work has been done to tie site ...

Our investigation distinguishes six distinct geologic regions within Texas and determines a preferred one-dimensional (1D) crustal structure for each. These models, which consist of flat layers of varying thicknesses and ...

The process of reflux dolomitization is commonly invoked to explain dolostone occurrence and distribution. The time required for this process to take place is not well understood. Volumetric flow rates are the dominant ...

The Barnett Formation in the Llano Uplift region of the southern Fort Worth Basin of north-central Texas is an Osagean-Chesterian age siliciclastic mudrock whose deposition was influenced by the structurally stable Llano ...

The karstic Edwards Aquifer is a primary source of water in south-central Texas for domestic, agriculture, and industrial uses. Significant recharge into the aquifer occurs as surface water streams, including the Nueces ...

Populations of black mangroves (Avicennia sp.) are hypothesized to expand their latitudinal range with global climate change in the 21st century, induced by a reduction in the frequency and severity of coastal freezes, ...

A new barometric technique measuring stored stress in quartz inclusions via laser Raman microspectrometry was employed in an attempt to elucidate the extent of highpressure (HP) metamorphism in the Llano Uplift of central ...
