Geology and geohydrology of the Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle -- a report on the progress of nuclear waste isolation feasibility studies (1982) Geology and geohydrology of the Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle -- a report on the progress of nuclear waste isolation feasibility studies (1982) 1983

Since early 1977, the Bureau of Economic Geology has been evaluating several salt-bearing basins within the State of Texas as part of the national nuclear waste repository program, The Bureau, a research unit of The University of Texas at Austin, is conducting a long-term program to gather and in

Hydrogeologic and hydrochemical properties of salt-dissolution zones, Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle - preliminary assessment Hydrogeologic and hydrochemical properties of salt-dissolution zones, Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle - preliminary assessment 1987

Ground water that moves downward from aquifers in clastic rocks of the Triassic Dockum Group and Neogene Ogallala Formation dissolves bedded halite and anhydrite in the Upper Permian evaporite section along the perimeter of the Southern High Plains in the Texas Panhandle.

Considerations in the extraction of uranium from a fresh-water aquifer -- Miocene Oakville Sandstone, south Texas Considerations in the extraction of uranium from a fresh-water aquifer -- Miocene Oakville Sandstone, south Texas 1982

The Miocene Oakville Sandstone is a major aquifer and uranium host beneath the Texas Coastal Plain. In 1976, approximately 6,000 acre-ft of ground water were withdrawn from the Oakville for municipal use.

Hydrogeology and hydrochemical facies of the San Andres Formation in eastern New Mexico and the Texas panhandle Hydrogeology and hydrochemical facies of the San Andres Formation in eastern New Mexico and the Texas panhandle 1986

Fluid pressure, permeability, rates and patterns of ground-water flow, and chemical and isotopic composition of ground water in carbonate rock in the lower part of the San Andres Formation (Permian) in eastern New Mexico and the Texas Panhandle were studied to characterize the origin and movement

Hydrogeochemistry of the vadose zone in unmined and reclaimed deposits at Big Brown lignite mine, east Texas Hydrogeochemistry of the vadose zone in unmined and reclaimed deposits at Big Brown lignite mine, east Texas 1986

In the subsurface and at the outcrop, waters in argillaceous deposits of the Calvert Bluff Formation (lower Eocene, Wilcox Group) are brackish to saline.

Hydrogeochemistry and water resources of the Triassic lower Dockum Group in the Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico Hydrogeochemistry and water resources of the Triassic lower Dockum Group in the Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico 1986

Topographically controlled ground-water-basin divides, established during the Pleistocene by erosion of the Pecos and Canadian River valleys, prevent ground-water recharge in the outcrop of the Triassic Dockum Group from entering the confined part of the aquifer in the Dockum Group beneath the So

Identification of sources and mechanisms of salt-water pollution affecting ground-water quality:  a case study, West Texas Identification of sources and mechanisms of salt-water pollution affecting ground-water quality: a case study, West Texas 1990

Occurrences of ground-water and soil salinization are numerous in the Concho River watershed and its confluence with the Colorado River in West Texas and in other semiarid regions of Texas and the United States.

Edwards aquifer ground-water resources:  geologic controls on porosity development in platform carbonates, south Texas Edwards aquifer ground-water resources: geologic controls on porosity development in platform carbonates, south Texas 1996

Focusing on the highly developed Edwards aquifer, which supplies water for a large area of south-central Texas, this report presents a three-dimensional model of the porosity distribution in the aquifer, which quantifies the spatial distribution of water resources and provides information that ca

Groundwater availability in the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer in central Texas -- numerical simulations of 2000 through 2050 withdrawal projections Groundwater availability in the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer in central Texas -- numerical simulations of 2000 through 2050 withdrawal projections 1999

Between 1951 and 1996, groundwater pumpage from the Carrizo-Wilcox aquifer, one of Texas' major aquifer systems, increased in the area between the Colorado and Brazos Rivers from approximately 10,600 to 37,900 acre-ft/yr, primarily as a result of mining needs.
