Abstract:
Predicting rock elastic properties and permeability from high-resolution 2D thin sections has been a challenging problem in rock physics because the 2D thin sections reveal very little about how the microstructure connects in the third dimension. However, 2D thin sections are widely available and inexpensive because they are often produced as a part of the reservoir-quality workflow. Furthermore, they have much higher resolution and greater field of view than micro X-ray computed tomography images, which are commonly used for rock properties estimation. The 2D thin sections we studied are from

Abstract:
ABSTRACT This chapter presents geological documentation of Quaternary (and perhaps older) event histories of southeastern Barbados. The Barbados Limestone is herein formally defined. A time-stratigraphic division of the Barbados Limestone in southeastern Barbados and the properties of the stratigraphic units are presented. A major finding of this study is that the marine terraces originated wholly by marine erosion, not by reef construction, and evolved in stages over a long duration. The hydrology and thickness data of the Barbados Limestone are discussed, and hypotheses on causes of thickness variations are given. The study domain is divided into seven areas that contain a continuous flight of nine marine terraces preserved in various partial sequences. Discussions of these key seven areas in southeastern Barbados are supported by geologic maps at large scale and cross sections. Sections with VE > 1 display limestone stratigraphy and facies over relatively large lengths. Sections with VE = 1 show true structural configurations over short lengths. Detailed observations and radio isotopic dating of the limestone units permit differentiation and correlation among them.

Definitions and formulae used at various points in the text to manipulate vectors are listed below. Additional useful formulae, including geometrical and physical interpretations complementary to those provided in this text, can be found in standard texts on vector analysis and in mathematical handbooks. The Standard Mathematical Tables published by CRC Press (Boca Raton, Florida) is a particularly handy resource, and most college-level calculus texts cover introductory vector analysis as part of the material intended for a third-semester course. Appendix A in Bird, Stewart, and Lightfoot (1960) is a very good summary of vector and tensor notation presented in the context of fluid mechanics. Section 17.1.1 begins with several basic definitions of vector quantities that generally apply to any orthogonal coordinate system. The notation for unit vectors in Cartesian coordinates, i, j, and k, are used in this section, but it is understood that this notation may be directly replaced with symbols for unit vectors associated with other orthogonal coordinates. Section 17.1.2 then covers differential operations for Cartesian coordinates. Although the notation used for these differential operations in Cartesian coordinates is the same as that for other coordinate systems, the actual operations connoted by the notation are different, and must be defined separately (Appendix 17.2). Let S and T denote scalar functions, and let U, V, and W denote vectors. If U = 〈U1, U2, U3〉, then . . . U = U1i + U2j + U3k . . . . . . (17.1) . . .

Abstract:
We have seen in previous chapters how grapevines interact with rocks and soils, and in Chapter 10 I discussed the role of geology in terroir. But a question remains, one that is probably uppermost in the mind of many a wine lover: to what extent does geology affect the taste of the wine in your glass? I argued in Chapter 9 that the perception of a mineral taste in wine can’t have a literal meaning, but what about other tastes ascribed to geology? We might reasonably expect that the geological influences on vine growth have at least some role in wine flavor, but what? Many populist wine writings imply that the answers to such questions are clear-cut, but unfortunately they aren’t. Claims are routinely made in wine descriptions that sound fine but that don’t easily tally with scientific understanding. In other words, there’s some divergence between popular beliefs and scientific understanding of the geology—wine flavor connection. Part of the explanation may be that many of the populist assertions seem to be based on custom and on anecdote—narratives passed on enthusiastically but unquestioningly between wine fans. Two situations are common. First, a description of a wine casually mentions the kind of geology where it originated, implying a significance but without any justification or indication of how it might come about. I give illustrations of this in the following section. Second, some character of a wine is ascribed to particular rocks and soils but without providing any rationale. For example, a Riesling from Kamptal’s Gaisberg vineyard (Austria) is said to have “complexity because of the slaty para-gneiss, amphibolite, and mica” soils. But there’s no indication of how these two very specific rock types together with this particular mineral bring this complexity about.

Abstract:
Slope stability problems in soils underlie most of the landslides that cause losses of human and property in the world. The stability of natural or man-made slopes in soils is an important topic that requires great attention while site exploring, testing, modelling and analyzing. Engineering geology and geotechnical engineering interdisciplinary team work is essential to achieve a sufficient understanding of site geology and the behavior of soil. The developments of urban areas require new sites for settlement. Soil structure interaction in slopes requires more sophisticated numerical analysis methods to develop. This section particularly summarizes the factors cause a slope to fail. In addition, site exploration steps, in-situ and laboratory test methods were mentioned. Slope stability analysis methods such as LEM, FEM, DEM, BEM were discussed in details. The developments of empirical or statistical regional approaches were stated. Remediation techniques were discussed regarding the construction costs. Finally, the necessity of further studies in numerical modelling was emphasized.

Abstract:
ABSTRACT This study presents three regional cross sections, a structural map analysis, and a schematic map restoration. The sections are constrained by surface geology and petroleum wells and were developed using model-based methods to be consistent with the regional tectonic context and balancing concepts. Together, these products depict the geometry and kinematics of the major fault systems. Insights from this research include the following. Franciscan complex blueschist-facies rocks in the Mount Diablo region were unroofed west of their current location and subsequently thrust beneath the Great Valley sequence in the mid-Eocene. East Bay structures are complicated by overprinting of Neogene compression and dextral strike-slip motion on a Paleogene graben system. Net lateral displacement between the Hayward fault and the Central Valley varies from 26 km toward 341° to 29 km toward 010° in the southern and northern East Bay Hills, respectively. Uplift above a wedge thrust generates the principal Neogene structural high, which extends from Vallejo through Mount Diablo to the Altamont Ridge. Anomalous structural relief at Mount Diablo is due to strike-parallel thrusting on the crest of a fault-propagation fold formed on the west-verging roof thrust. Uplift that exposes the Coast Range ophiolite in the East Bay Hills is formed by oblique thrusting generated by slip transfer at the northern termination of the Calaveras fault. The Paleogene extensional fault system likely extends farther west than previously documented. An east-dipping branch of that system may underlie the Walnut Creek Valley. Three-dimensional restoration should be applied to constrain geologic frameworks to be used for seismic velocity modeling.

<strong><em>Abstract. </em></strong>As part of a strategy to reestablish native stocks of lake trout <em>Salvelinus namaycush</em>, six areas of offshore and coastal Lake Michigan benthic habitat were mapped with a bathymetric laser system. This allowed us to visualize and map morphologic detail by at least an order of magnitude over existing data. Decimeter elevation–bathymetric data, referenced to the International Great Lakes datum of 1985, were obtained on a 4-m grid over a total area of about 200 km<sup>2</sup> in water depths from 0 to 30 m. Based on the laser-derived morphology, regional geology and sparse samples, three geologic regimes were used for substrate–habitat classification: (1) bedrock carbonates of Silurian through Devonian age, indicated by bedding scarps and lineations at or near the surface at all of the mapped areas; (2) glacial deposits that appear as compacted clay till lineations and cobble and boulder moraines with outwash features; and (3) modern sand deposits seen in thin down-drift (to the east) bedforms, sand sheets, and depositional lobes. Preferred spawning substrate—clean cobble and gravel deposits with adjacent deep water—is present in sections of all mapped areas. However, laser data cannot discern cleanliness, and video data indicate the cleanliness on this substrate may be compromised by recent algal and mussel growth.

Abstract:
An information management and mapping system combining a series of interactive computer programs for stratigraphic, lithofacies, paleogeographic, and structural analysis interfaced with a comprehensive database on subsurface geology produces contour maps of quantitative variables including structure maps, isopach maps, and maps of lithofacies parameters; detailed lithologic and stratigraphic logs; and printouts of lithofacies parameters for all levels of the lithostratigraphic subdivision. Users communicate by means of simple, on-screen, menu-driven dialogues controlled by FORTRAN programs. The system runs on DEC/Micro VAX II computers operating under VMS. This information management and mapping system for subsurface stratigraphic analysis is an integration of a comprehensive database on the subsurface geology of Israel and a series of computer programs for stratigraphic, lithofacies, paleogeographic, and structural analysis. Development of the system, referred to as "ATLAS -RELIANT," was sponsored by OEIL [Israel Oil Exploration (Investment) Ltd.). The system serves primarily as a storage and retrieval facility for information on the subsurface geology of Israel. Users can obtain printouts of lithologic and stratigraphic logs, contour maps, and value maps. The system originally was developed to run on a CDC machine under the NOS/BE operating system. Later OEIL expanded the database to include many additional items of information [inventory of cores and petrophysical logs, results of production tests, results of petrophysical analyses, geochemical analyses of recovered fluids (water samples and hydrocarbons), and results of quantitative analyses of petrophysical logs] and the system was modified to run on DEC/Micro VAX II computers under the VMS operating system (Shertok, 1969). Among other things, the ATLAS-RELIANT system was instrumental in the regional stratigraphic analysis of the subsurface geology of Israel performed by OEIL during 1968-1988 (OEIL, 1966; Cohen et al., 1990). The database, dubbed "ATLAS," is about 16 MB in size and contains information on 320 petroleum exploration and development boreholes, 50 deep water wells, and 100 columnar sections of outcrops.

Abstract:
Abstract This publication presents how 4D seismic and reservoir simulation techniques were used to optimise the trajectory of an infill production well in a producing oil field. The A6 infill well target in Field X offshore Nigeria was planned as a 12000 feet horizontal drill well with a 4900 feet gravel pack completion in the reservoir formation. The initial well trajectory delivered early water breakthrough and low oil recovery. The well planning team resolved the issue by reconciling the well trajectory and completion data in the geologic and reservoir simulation models, and used 4D seismic

A fundamental responsibility of the National Park Service is to ensure that park resources are preserved, protected, and managed in consideration of the resources themselves and for the benefit and enjoyment by the public. Through the inventory, monitoring, and study of park resources, we gain a greater understanding of the scope, significance, distribution, and management issues associated with these resources and their use. This baseline of natural resource information is available to inform park managers, scientists, stakeholders, and the public about the conditions of these resources and t

Abstract:
Oxon Run Parkway (OXRN) is a 51-hectare (126-acre) natural area within Washington, D.C. administered by the National Park Service under National Capital Parks East (NACE). The original plan called for a road, slated to follow Oxon Run stream, but this never came to fruition; despite this, the moniker stuck. The majority of the original Oxon Run Parkway is managed by the District of Columbia. The section of Oxon Run Parkway under NPS jurisdiction contains wetlands and forests, as well as the only McAteean magnolia bogs still remaining in the District.
