Bouguer gravity Atlas of Texas, Amarillo sheet Bouguer gravity Atlas of Texas, Amarillo sheet 1986

This folded transparent map is at the same scale as its corresponding Geologic Atlas of Texas (GAT) sheet and can be superimposed on it to compare gravity information with surface geology.

Regional cross sections of the Texas panhandle:  Precambrian to mid-Permian Regional cross sections of the Texas panhandle: Precambrian to mid-Permian 1981

The Texas Panhandle traditionally has been an important source of mineral resources, especially petroleum, and resources will continue to contribute heavily to the economy of the area. The seven cross sections of this report synthesize the subsurface geology of the region.

Middle and Upper Permian salt-bearing strata of the Texas panhandle:  lithologic and facies cross sections Middle and Upper Permian salt-bearing strata of the Texas panhandle: lithologic and facies cross sections 1981

Regional cross sections of Middle and Upper Permian rocks in the Texas Panhandle illustrate the lithology, depositional systems, and structure of these salt-bearing strata.

Geology and geohydrology of the Palo Duro Basin, Texas panhandle -- a report on the progress of nuclear waste isolation feasibility studies (1978) Geology and geohydrology of the Palo Duro Basin, Texas panhandle -- a report on the progress of nuclear waste isolation feasibility studies (1978) 1979

Integrated, detailed, and comprehensive study of the physical stratigraphy, tectonic history, hydrogeology, geomorphology, and resource potential of the Palo Duro and Dalhart Basins, Texas Panhandle, is part of a national evaluation of ancient salt basins as potential sites for isolation and mana

Climatic controls on erosion in the rolling plains and along the Caprock Escarpment of the Texas panhandle Climatic controls on erosion in the rolling plains and along the Caprock Escarpment of the Texas panhandle 1980

The climate of the Texas Panhandle is primarily semiarid continental, exhibiting a pronounced peak in precipitation during the months of May through July.

Impact of evaporite dissolution and collapse on highways and other cultural features in the Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico Impact of evaporite dissolution and collapse on highways and other cultural features in the Texas panhandle and eastern New Mexico 1981

Geological investigations in the Texas Panhandle and eastern New Mexico indicate that regional subsurface dissolution of Permian evaporites has occurred and is an ongoing process.

Investigation of underpressuring in the deep-basin brine aquifer, Palo Duro basin, Texas Investigation of underpressuring in the deep-basin brine aquifer, Palo Duro basin, Texas 1985

Although plots of pressure versus depth are useful for understanding the hydrodynamics of ground-water systems, they can be difficult to interpret.

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.
