Because geomorphic features can readily be mapped, our ability to characterize unsaturated flow over large areas would be greatly enhanced if relationships between geomorphic settings and unsaturated flow could be identified.

Six interlocking regional stratigraphic cross sections of Lower Cretaceous strata (middle Albian-lower Cenomanian) of the Edwards and Stockton Plateaus of West Texas illustrate the vertical and lateral extent of lithostratigraphic units and distribution of facies and facies tracts.

Written for a nontechnical audience, this guide describes the Tuff Canyon area in detail and includes a glossary of terms that might be unfamiliar to non-geologists. Color photographs and sketches depict the geologic features, fauna, and flora of this part of Big Bend National Park.

Researchers in crosswell seismic tomography attempt to image interwell velocity fields by using traveltimes of transmitted waves generated by a downhole source and recorded by downhole receivers.
