Geologic Significance of Remotely Sensed Physiographic Features of the Texas Panhandle and Adjacent Regions Geologic Significance of Remotely Sensed Physiographic Features of the Texas Panhandle and Adjacent Regions 1990

Remotely sensed features such as linear drainages, escarpments, ridges, and aligned playas have been identified on Landsat imagery (scale 1:250,000) of the Texas Panhandle and adjacent regions to allow comparison of these features with detailed regional and site-specific geologic data.

Tectonic structures of the Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle Tectonic structures of the Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle 1989

The Palo Duro Basin is a broad structural low in the southern Texas Panhandle that formed as a result of nearly continuous Pennsylvanian and Permian subsidence. True complexity of this basin is unknown because of the sparsity of structural information.

Budnik, R.T. Report of Investigations Bureau of Economic Geology
Stratigraphy and influence of effective porosity on ground-water flow in the Wolfcamp brine aquifer, Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle Stratigraphy and influence of effective porosity on ground-water flow in the Wolfcamp brine aquifer, Palo Duro basin, Texas panhandle 1988

In the Palo Duro Basin, the Wolfcampian Series (lower Permian) overlies Pennsylvanian (primarily Virgilian) strata and underlies the Wichita Group (Leonardian).

Hydrogeology and hydrochemistry of the Ogallala aquifer, southern High Plains, Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico Hydrogeology and hydrochemistry of the Ogallala aquifer, southern High Plains, Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico 1988

The Ogallala aquifer, which underlies the Southern High Plains, consists of the saturated sediments of the Neogene Ogallala Formation. The aquifer is the main source of water for the High Plains of Texas and New Mexico and is being severely depleted by extensive pumpage for irrigation.

Nativ, Ronit Report of Investigations Bureau of Economic Geology
Geomorphic processes and rates of retreat affecting the Caprock Escarpment, Texas panhandle Geomorphic processes and rates of retreat affecting the Caprock Escarpment, Texas panhandle 1988

The interaction of geomorphic and ground-water processes has produced the Caprock Escarpmentthat bounds the eastern margin of the Southern High Plains in the Texas Panhandle.

Gustavson, T.C., Simpkins, W.W. Report of Investigations Bureau of Economic Geology
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.

Geomorphology and Quaternary stratigraphy of the Rolling Plains, Texas Panhandle Geomorphology and Quaternary stratigraphy of the Rolling Plains, Texas Panhandle 1986 Gustavson, T.C., Baumgardner, R.W., Jr., Caran, S.C., Collins, E.W., Dalquest, W.W., Goldstein, A.G., Harrison, B.R., Machenberg, M.D. Guidebook Bureau of Economic Geology
Geochemistry of salt-spring and shallow subsurface brines in the Rolling Plains of Texas and southwestern Oklahoma Geochemistry of salt-spring and shallow subsurface brines in the Rolling Plains of Texas and southwestern Oklahoma 1986

Numerous salt-emission areas exist within the Permian outcrop in the Rolling Plains of Texas and southwestern Oklahoma. Sodium chloride waters underlie the area at relatively shallow depths, discharge from salt springs and salt seeps, and greatly impair the quality of ground and surface waters.

Richter, B.C., Kreitler, C.W. Report of Investigations Bureau of Economic Geology
Cyclicity in the Middle Permian San Andres Formation, Palo Duro Basin, Texas panhandle Cyclicity in the Middle Permian San Andres Formation, Palo Duro Basin, Texas panhandle 1986

The San Andres Formation in the Palo Duro Basin is a middle Permian carbonate-evaporite sequence situated between two red-bed units, the underlying Glorieta and the overlying undifferentiated Queen-Grayburg sequences.

Fracasso, M.A., Hovorka, S.D. Report of Investigations Bureau of Economic Geology
Numerical modeling of regional ground-water flow in the deep-basin brine aquifer of the Palo Duro Basin, Texas panhandle Numerical modeling of regional ground-water flow in the deep-basin brine aquifer of the Palo Duro Basin, Texas panhandle 1986

A conceptual hydrogeologic model of the Palo Duro Basin, Texas Panhandle, subdivides the basin into three hydrogeologic units: (1) the shallow Ogallala and Dockum aquifers (Upper aquifer), (2) the Permian evaporite aquitard (Evaporite aquitard), and (3) the deep, confined, underpressured, princip
