Paleoecology Of Pseudozaphentoides Verticillatus (Barbour) In The Plattsmouth Limestone (Pennsylvanian), Robert Francis Diffendal Jr.

Open Access Master's Theses (through 2010)

The purpose of this paper is to (1) delineate precisely the exact areal distribution and stratigraphic position within the Plattsmouth limestone member of any occurrence of Pseudozaphrentoides verticillatus (Barbour) and (2) to study the abiotic and biotic aspects of the Plattsmouth limestone in order to offer some inferences as to the paleoecological significance of these occurrences.

The Plattsmouth limestone in Nebraska is exposed in numerous quarries along the sides of the Weeping Water valley and along the Missouri River bluffs from Plattsmouth, Nebraska south to the Queen Hill quarry. Within the Plattsmouth, corals rapidly diminish in number away from the …

On The Solar Magnetic Field In Inter-Planetary Space, Jacqueline H. Hill

Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs

The purpose of this thesis is to determine, experimentally and theoretically, an axially symmetric current distribution which would simulate the currents believed to flow in interplanetary space around the sun. The general magnetic field of the sun is assumed to originate as a dipole field which induces currents in the plasma of the solar atmosphere. The dipole field is in turn modified by the induced currents. This phenomenon is often described in terms or a diamagnetism of the plasma. In the limiting case, this diamagnetism would almost completely prevent the inducing field from penetrating the plasma.

The Geology Of The Northern And Eastern Parts Of The Ladron Mountains, Socorro County, New Mexico., Bruce A. Black

Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs

The Laron Mountains are & westward-tilted fault block and an important western bounding structure of the Rio Grande depression in the Albuquerque-Belen basin. The main massif is a complex of both igneous and metamorphic Precambrian rocks. It consists of a thick sequence of steeply east-dipping quartzite & and schists which are predominantly a product of low- to medium- grade regional Precambrian metamorphism. Granitic gneiss is ptygmatically folded with abundant schist remnant in a large area on the eastern flank of the mountains and represents an ultrametamorphic product of anatexis. All metamorphic rocks have been invaded by two later Precambrian granites. …

Geomorphic Features And History Of The Lower Part Of Logan Canyon, Utah, Edmund J. Williams

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

Logan Canyon is located east of Logan, Utah, in the Bear River Range. The lower part of Logan Canyon is considered that section of the canyon from its mouth upstream to Tony Grove Canyon, a distance of 22 miles¹, Figure 1. Some tributary canyons of the lower part of Logan Canyon have been included in this investigation because of their relationship to Logan Canyon. Grassy Flat Canyon, a south tributary of Logan Canyon 4.4 miles from Logan, exhibits several geomorphic features related to the geology of Logan Canyon. Because of its extensive use and close association with Logan …

Geology Of The Southwestern Part Of The Randolph Quadrangle, Utah-Wyoming, Steven C. Hansen

All Graduate Theses and Dissertations, Spring 1920 to Summer 2023

A detailed study of the southwestern part of the Randolph quadrangle was undertaken in view of the fact that Richardson (1941) mapped a large area of undifferentiated Ordovician rock. Therefore, the purposes of this investigation are: (1) to prepare a more detailed geologic map of the south­western part of the Randolph quadrangle (Plate 1), (2) to describe the struc­ture, stratigraphy, and geologic history of the area, and (3) to relate the geology to adjacent areas.

Slope Deposits Of The Pennsylvanian Haymond Formation, Marathon Region, Texas, Walter E. Dean Jr.

Earth and Planetary Sciences ETDs

The Haymond Formation of the Marathon basin, Texas consists mainly of a sequence of more than 12,000 siltstone-shale couplets which, combined with the similar couplets of the older Tesnus Formation, form a sequence of "flysch" sediments more than 10,000 feet thick deposited on the eastern slope of the subsiding Llanoria geosyncline. The Haymond Formation contains no diagnostic fossils; its age is known only as Lower Pennsylvanian, probably Atokan.

Bulletin of the University of Nebraska State Museum

Two new species of feather mites are described: Proctophyllodes tenericaulus from Turdus viscivorus L. (Turdidae) and Galerida cristata (L.) (Alaudidae) and Proctophyllodes emberizae from Emberiza melanocephala Scopoli and E. hortulana (L.) (Fringillidae).

Variation In Perthitic Microcline From A Zoned Pegmatite, Terry E. Tullis

Journal of the Minnesota Academy of Science

Quantitative microscopic and chemical anaylses of 12 specimens of microcline, most of them perthitic, from the zoned Hugo pegmatite in the Black Hills near Keystone, South Dakota, have yielded data that can be used to estimate the temperatures of crystallization at successive stages in the formation of the pegmatite. The determined temperatures of crystallization range from 565°C in zone 3a, near the margin of the pegmatite, to 280°C in zone 7, the core.

The Physical Limnology And Sedimentology Of Miller Lake, Martin River Glacier, South-Central Alaska, Edward Callender

Theses and Dissertations

Miller Lake is an ice-walled lake located on the terminus of the Martin River Glacier, south-central Alaska. It has an area of 1.36 km² and a mean depth of 25 meters. The lake basin was formed by the coalescence of several ice sinkholes and is characterized by extremely uneven bottom topography.

Analysis of detailed thermal data obtained during the summer of 1963 indicates that the lake is never permanently thermally stratified but does develop some stratification during periods of warm, calm weather. This stratification is easily destroyed by stormy weather. Miller Lake is classified as a subpolar lake due …

Stratigraphy Sedimentation And Petroleum Possibilities Of The Middle Ordovician (Kimmswick-Galena) Rocks Of Missouri, Illinois And Iowa, Krishna Kant Misra

Doctoral Dissertations

"Detailed surface and subsurface studies of the Kimmswick Limestone and the Galena Formation of Middle Ordovician age in eastern Missouri, western Illinois, and southeastern Iowa were conducted in order to examine their stratigraphic relations, geological history, environment of deposition, and petroleum possibilities.

The main objective of this study was to seek a stratigraphic subdivision of the Kimmswick Limestone in Missouri, based on its gross lithology and thin section study, and its correlation with the Galena Formation in Illinois and Iowa. As a result of this study, based on the examination of twelve surface sections and 92 thin sections a three-fold …
