Book Description
This volume presents a suite of detailed stratigraphic and sedimentologic investigations of the Eocene Green River Formation of Wyoming, Colorado and Utah, one of the world’s foremost terrestrial archives of lacustrine and alluvial deposition during the warmest portion of the early Cenozoic. Its twelve chapters encompass the rich and varied record of lacustrine stratigraphy, sedimentology, geochronology, geochemistry and paleontology. Chapters 2-9 provide detailed member-scale synthesis of Green River Formation strata within the Greater Green River, Fossil, Piceance Creek and Uinta Basins, while its final two chapters address its enigmatic evaporite deposits and ichnofossils at broad, interbasinal scale.

Limnogeology: Progress, Challenges and Opportunities
Author: Michael R. Rosen
Publisher: Springer Nature
ISBN: 3030665763
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 592
Book Description
This book honors the career of Professor Elizabeth Gierlowski-Kordesch who was a pioneer and leader in the field of limnogeology since the 1980s. Her work was instrumental in guiding students and professionals in the field until her untimely death in 2016. This collection of chapters was written by her colleagues and students and recognize the important role that Professor Gierlowski-Kordesch had in advancing the field of limnogeology. The chapters show the breadth of her reach as these have been contributed from virtually every continent. This book will be a primary reference for scientists, professionals and graduate students who are interested in the latest advances in limnogeologic processes and basin descriptions in North and South America, Europe, Africa, and China. *Free supplementary material available online for chapters 3,11,12 and 13.

LITHOFACIES, DEPOSITION, EARLY DIAGENESIS, AND POROSITY OF THE UTELAND BUTTE MEMBER, GREEN RIVER FORMATION, EASTERN UINTA BASIN, UTAH AND COLORADO
Author: S. Katherine Logan
Publisher: Utah Geological Survey
ISBN:
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 37
Book Description
The freshwater lacustrine environment of the Uteland Butte member of the lower Green River Formation in the eastern part of Utah’s Uinta Basin was correlated and mapped from outcrop to the subsurface using lithofacies and sequence-stratigraphic boundaries from four major flooding events. The study area extends from the outcrop on the western side of the Douglas Creek Arch, where lake-margin sediments occur, to cores from the Greater Natural Buttes natural gas field in central Uintah County, where sublittoral facies are predominant.
