Pavement Deflection and Seismic Refraction for Determining Bedrock Type, Depth, and Physical Properties beneath Roads Pavement Deflection and Seismic Refraction for Determining Bedrock Type, Depth, and Physical Properties beneath Roads 2000

We examined the relationship between three data types--geologic maps, measurements of pavement deflection under load, and seismic refraction data-- from diverse geologic settings in Texas to determine (1) whether geologic maps and seismic refraction data might be used to interpret deflections and

Regional depositional systems tracts, paleogeography, and sequence stratigraphy, Upper Pennsylvanian and Lower Permian strata, north- and west-central Texas Regional depositional systems tracts, paleogeography, and sequence stratigraphy, Upper Pennsylvanian and Lower Permian strata, north- and west-central Texas 1990

Sixteen depositional sequences, commonly called cyclothems, each composed mostly of limestone(retrogradational/transgressive) and siliciclastic (progradational/regressive) subsequences, or systems tracts, record the paleogeography during Late Pennsylvanian (Virgilian Epoch) and Early Permian (Wol

Lithostratigraphy and paleoenvironments of Upper Paleozoic continental red beds, north-central Texas: Bowie (new) and Wichita (revised) Groups Lithostratigraphy and paleoenvironments of Upper Paleozoic continental red beds, north-central Texas: Bowie (new) and Wichita (revised) Groups 1988

Approximately 2,200 ft (670 m) of principally continental and paralic rocks of late Virgilian, Wolfcampian, and early Leonardian age (late Pennsylvanian and early Permian) are exposed in an area of about 4,950 mi2 (12,800 km2) between the Brazos and Red Rivers in North-Central Texas.

Geologic Atlas of Texas, Wichita Falls-Lawton sheet Geologic Atlas of Texas, Wichita Falls-Lawton sheet 1987

Geologic map that depicts the surface geology of Hardeman, Wilbarger, Wichita, Clay, Knox, Baylor, Archer, Haskell, Throckmorton, Young, and Foard Counties and part of Jack County, Texas. The 20-page booklet indicates geologic formations, abbreviations, and ages.

Regional stratigraphic cross sections, Upper Pennsylvanian and Lower Permian strata (Virgilian and Wolfcampian Series), north-central Texas 1987

This cross section set comprises 14 dip (E-W) sections and 9 strike (N-S) stratigraphic cross sections (with text), correlating upper Pennsylvanian (Virgilian) and lower Permian (Wolfcampian) strata throughout the subsurface in all or parts of 28 counties of North-Central Texas.

Atoka Group (Lower to Middle Pennsylvanian), northern Fort Worth basin, Texas: terrigenous depositional systems, diagenesis, and reservoir distribution and quality Atoka Group (Lower to Middle Pennsylvanian), northern Fort Worth basin, Texas: terrigenous depositional systems, diagenesis, and reservoir distribution and quality 1982

The Fort Worth Basin, in North-Central Texas, is a late Paleozoic foreland basin that was downwarped during the Early to Middle Pennsylvanian Period in response to tectonic stresses that also produced the Ouachita Thrust Belt.

Depositional systems in Canyon Group (Pennsylvanian System), north-central Texas Depositional systems in Canyon Group (Pennsylvanian System), north-central Texas 1975

The Canyon Group (Missourian Series) is a sequence of westward-dipping, genetically related carbonate and terrigenous clastic facies that crop out in a northeast-southwest belt across North-Central Texas.

Erxleben, A.W. Report of Investigations Bureau of Economic Geology
Upper Pennsylvanian limestone banks, north central Texas Upper Pennsylvanian limestone banks, north central Texas 1975

Nelson and others (1962) define a bank as " ... a skeletal deposit formed by organisms which do not have the ecologic potential to erect a rigid wave-resistant structure." They explain that a bank may have any geometry.

Bituminous coal in Texas Bituminous coal in Texas 1974

Coal is found in six areas in Texas, including the large North-Central Texas field, a distinctive cannel coalfield in Webb County, and Late Cretaceous-age coals near Eagle Pass.
