Controls On Speleogenesis In The Upper-Mississippian Pennington Formation On The Western Cumberland Plateau Escarpment, Hali Steinmann Oct 2018

Controls On Speleogenesis In The Upper-Mississippian Pennington Formation On The Western Cumberland Plateau Escarpment, Hali Steinmann

Masters Theses & Specialist Projects

Much of the pioneering work on caves of the Cumberland Plateau (province spanning Tennessee, Kentucky, Alabama, and Georgia) has been stratigraphically located within the Mississippian Bangor and Monteagle Limestones, wherein some of the region’s largest and most spectacular caves occur. Of interest to the understanding of this karst landscape, but severely underrepresented in the literature thereof, are caves and karst features in a heterogeneous sequence of clastics and carbonates known collectively as the Pennington Formation (Upper Mississippian). This work consisted of a regional study of Pennington caves on the western Cumberland Plateau escarpment (Alabama and Tennessee), and a case study …


Creation Of A Numerical Mathematical Model Of Geofiltration Processes And Its Adaptation For Solving Epignosic And Forecast Problems (In Terms Of Gurlen District Of Khorezm Region), Tolkun Mirakhmedov Sep 2018

Creation Of A Numerical Mathematical Model Of Geofiltration Processes And Its Adaptation For Solving Epignosic And Forecast Problems (In Terms Of Gurlen District Of Khorezm Region), Tolkun Mirakhmedov

Bulletin of National University of Uzbekistan: Mathematics and Natural Sciences

The article considers the creation of a mathematical model of geofiltration processes in Gurlen District. Methods for calculating and developing a mathematical model and algorithms were carried out, and applied software was developed, and the developed geofiltration mathematical model was adapted to solve the epignosic and forecast problems of the area under consideration.


Grain Size Analysis Of Massie’S Creek Near Flax Pond And Community Park, Andrew R. Rivera Apr 2018

Grain Size Analysis Of Massie’S Creek Near Flax Pond And Community Park, Andrew R. Rivera

The Research and Scholarship Symposium (2013-2019)

The goal of this research is to better understand the stream bed conditions at the confluence of North Fork and South Fork Massie’s Creek next to Community Park in downtown Cedarville, OH. Stream depth as well as sediment type where determined as a result of field work done for this project. The depth data was then used to create a contour map of the pool behind the low-head dam that defines the lower boundary of the confluence area. Sediment distribution is represented on this map based on laboratory particle size analysis and gross piratical size analysis done in the field. …


The Island Of Amsterdamøya: A Key Site For Studying Past Climate In The Arctic Archipelago Of Svalbard, Jostein Bakke, Nicholas Balascio, Willem G.M. Van Der Bilt, Raymond Bradley, William J. D' Andrea, Marthe Gjerde, Sædís Ólafsdóttir, Torgeir Røthe, Greg De Wet Mar 2018

The Island Of Amsterdamøya: A Key Site For Studying Past Climate In The Arctic Archipelago Of Svalbard, Jostein Bakke, Nicholas Balascio, Willem G.M. Van Der Bilt, Raymond Bradley, William J. D' Andrea, Marthe Gjerde, Sædís Ólafsdóttir, Torgeir Røthe, Greg De Wet

Geosciences: Faculty Publications

This paper introduces a series of articles assembled in a special issue that explore Holocene climate evolution, as recorded in lakes on the Island of Amsterdamøya on the westernmost fringe of the Arctic Svalbard archipelago. Due to its location near the interface of oceanic and atmospheric systems sourced from Arctic and Atlantic regions, Amsterdamøya is a key site for recording the terrestrial response to marine and atmospheric changes. We employed multi-proxy approaches on lake sediments, integrating physical, biogeochemical, and isotopic analyses to infer past changes in temperature, precipitation, and glacier activity. The results comprise a series of quantitative Holocene-length paleoclimate …
