Book Description
This volume emphasizes the interaction of the Cordilleran thrust belt and Rocky Mountain foreland in studies of regional structural geology, geophysics, and sedimentology from west-central Montana to Arizona. The volume outlines how the nature of the Rocky mountain foreland and its deformation affect the geometry of the Cordilleran thrust belt. Many of the structural and geophysical studies reported in this volume also address the question of which structures - forland or thrust belt - developed first in a specific region and how early formed structures influenced later ones. Several chapters address the nature and style of foreland development.

The Geology of the Kamas-Coalville Region, Summit County, Utah, and Its Relation to Ground-water Conditions
Author: Hugh A. Hurlow
Publisher: Utah Geological Survey
ISBN: 155791656X
Category : Geology
Languages : en
Pages : 60
Book Description
The Kamas-Coalville region is in the Middle Rocky Mountains physiographic province, about 30 miles east of the Wasatch Front urban area. Rapid population growth and increased water use are the impetus for a collaborative study of water resources in the Kamas-Coalville region, which includes geologic and hydrologic components. This study describes the geologic framework of the Kamas-Coalville region, emphasizing geologic features that most strongly influence ground-water occurrence, flow, and development. The main topics include: (1) the stratigraphy and structural geology of bedrock, (2) the nature and geometry of unconsolidated deposits in Kamas Valley, (3) the hydrostratigraphy of the study area, and (4) the structure of bedrock units below Kamas Valley. 55 pages + 15 plates

Languages : en
Pages : 457
Book Description
K.R. McClay Department of Geology, Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, University of London, Egham, Surrey, England TW20 OEX. Since the first Thrust and Nappe Tectonics Conference in London in 1979 (McClay & Price 1981), and the Toulouse Meeting on Thrusting and Deformation in 1984 (Platt et al. 1986) there have been considerable advances in the study of thrust systems incorporating new field observations, conceptual models, mechanical models, analogue and numerical simulations, together with geophysical studies of thrust belts. Thrust Tectonics 1990 was an International Conference convened by the editor and held at Royal Holloway and Bedford New College, University of London, Egham Surrey, from April 4th until April 7th 1990. There were one hundred and seventy participants from all continents except South America. The conference was generously sponsored by Brasoil U.K. Limited, BP Exploration, Chevron U.K. Limited, Clyde Petroleum, Enterprise Oil, Esso Exploration and Production UK Limited, and Shell U.K. Exploration and Production. One hundred and five contributions were presented at the meeting, - seventy six oral presentations (together with poster displays) and an additional twenty nine posters without oral presentation (McClay 1990, conference abstract volume).
