The Laramide orogen of the U.S. Cordillera formed in the latest Cretaceous, and deformation lasted into the earliest Oligocene. Along and proximal to the eastern and northern margins of the Colorado Plateau, deformation associated with this event mainly took place along reactivated structures. Related tectonic models invoke some role for the plateau either as a stress guide transmitting compression to the foreland or as a freely rotating microplate. Models dominated by northward displacements of the Colorado Plateau also require covariance between timing and magnitude of dextral strike-slip deformation in the eastern domain and thrust deformation in the northern domain. Here …


Kentucky Structural Contours From Digitally Vectorized Geologic Quadrangles, Kentucky Geological Survey Jan 2007

Kentucky Structural Contours From Digitally Vectorized Geologic Quadrangles, Kentucky Geological Survey

Research Data--KGS

This dataset includes geologic stuctural contours of varying datums across Kentucky in shapefile format. These structural contours are compiled from structural contour layers published as a part of the individual Digitally Vectorized Geologic Quadrangles (DVGQ) datasets (by the Kentucky Geologic Survey: https://kgs.uky.edu/kygeode/services/pubs/?pubtype=DVGQ&searchtype=pubcategory). The original structural contours were mapped on the 7.5-minute (1:24,000 scale) series geologic maps published during the Kentucky geologic mapping program (Kentucky Geological Survey - U.S. Geological Survey from 1960 to 1989: https://kgs.uky.edu/kygeode/services/pubs/?pubtype=GQ&searchtype=pubcategory). The digital contours were subsequently digitized as a part of the DVGQ datasets during the geologic digital mapping program at KGS (1996 – 2007). Contoured …


Agmaps Land Manager Cd-Rom For The Lake Warden Catchment, Department Of Agriculture And Food Jan 2007

Agmaps Land Manager Cd-Rom For The Lake Warden Catchment, Department Of Agriculture And Food

Agmaps

This CD-ROM contains land resource maps and land management information for the Lake Warden catchment. It was prepared by Environmental Knowledge Systems Australia (EKSA) on behalf of the Department of Agriculture and Food Western Australia. Funding has been provided by the Australian and State Governments investment through the Natural Heritage Trust delivered by South Coast NRM in the South Coast region.

Also included on the CD is a lot of technical information which may now be out of date.
