Geology and geohydrology of the east Texas basin -- a report on the progress of nuclear waste isolation feasibility studies (1979) Geology and geohydrology of the east Texas basin -- a report on the progress of nuclear waste isolation feasibility studies (1979) 1980

Analysis during the second year was highlighted by a historical characterization of East Texas Basin infilling, the development of a model to explain the growth history of the domes, the continued studies of the Quaternary in East Texas, and a better understanding of the near-dome and regional hy

The third year of research was highlighted by the integration of regional basinal studies with growth histories for specific domes, studies of cap-rock diagenesis and salt deformation, preliminary studies of ground-water flow and geochemistry around Oakwood Dome, and preliminary studies of micros

Rock and mineral resources of east Texas Rock and mineral resources of east Texas 1965

In the past 100 years, more than 100 names have been used to designate parts or all of the outcropping Midway and Wilcox rocks in the Gulf Coastal Plain; less than half of these names are used currently by Coastal Plain geologists, and the validity of some of the remaining named rock units has be
