61	Controls on reservoir development and quality in a glacial sequence; a study of the late palaeozoic, Cooper Basin South Australia and Queensland, Australia : thesis submitted to the University of Adelaide in fullfillment [sic] of the requirement for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy, July 2000 Cubitt, Chris. January 2000 (has links) (PDF) At head of title: National Centre for Petroleum Geology and Geophysics. CD-ROM contains Appendices (1-10) in PDF. Includes copies of papers co-authored by the author. Includes bibliographical references (leaves [471]-499 in vol. 2) Studies the provenance and diagenesis of the Merrimelia Formation in South Australia and Queensland; a complex mosaic of glacial facies in which the Tirrawarra Sandstone and Merrimelia Formation exhibit an interfingering relationship, and defines the relationship further. Indicates that the Tirrawarra Sandstone should be included in the Merrimelia Formation as a "facies type" as both the Merrimelia and Tirrawarra sediments form an integrated suite of sediments. System requirements for accompanying CD-ROM: Macintosh or IBM compatible computer with Windows NT. Other requirements: Adobe Acrobat Reader. Cooper Basin (Qld. and S. Aust.)
62	Paleocurrents and Depositional Environments of the Dakota Group (Cretaceous), San Miguel County, New Mexico Bejnar, Craig Russel January 1975 (has links) The Dakota Group surrounding Las Vegas, New Mexico, consists of three units: 1) a basal, predominately trough cross-stratified, conglomeratic sandstone, 2) middle intercalated, thin-bedded sandstone and carbonaceous shale, and 3) upper, predominately tabular-planar cross-stratified, sandstone containing trace fossils. These units represent, respectively, 1) a fluvial piedmont plain, 2) fluvial coastal plain, and 3) a beach, littoral, and shallow marine complex. The cross-stratification in the lower sandstone unit indicates an easterly paleoslope. The cross-stratification in the upper sandstone unit has a bimodal distribution almost at right angles to the paleoslope, suggesting deposition by longshore currents. The standard deviation of the cross-stratification in the lower sandstone unit of 78° is typical of fluvial deposits. The standard deviation in the upper sandstone unit of 97° indicates a marine origin. algae bedding plane irregularities biostratigraphy clastic rocks Cretaceous cross-stratification Dakota Formation depositional environment environment environmental analysis indicators lithostratigraphy marine Mesozoic microfossils Mora County New Mexico nannofossils nearshore New Mexico northeast paleocurrents palynomorphs planar bedding structures Plantae provenance ripple marks San Miguel County New Mexico sandstone sedimentary petrology sedimentary rocks sedimentary structures sedimentation shale shallow stratigraphy streams terrigenous thallophytes United States
