The application of PHREEQCi, a geochemical computer program, to aid in the management of a wastewater treatment wetland
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
In the past decade, constructed wetlands have become popular for treating coal-generated acid mine drainage and leachate from coal-ash disposal areas. The goal of the wetland manager is to design a system in which the pH ...
Lithologic characteristics, depositional environments and geometries of reservoir and nonreservoir facies in the Queen Formation (Guadalupian, Permian) of Moose and Virey Fields, Midland County, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
The Queen Formation is a member of the Artesia Group, which is a sequence of intermingling carbonates, classics and evaporates that were deposited during Guadalupian (Permian) time across the Northwest Shelf, Central Basin ...
Sorption of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons to minerals and low-organic-carbon aquifer sediments
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
The molecular mechanisms and major geochemical factors ics. controlling the sorption of nontoxic organic chemicals (NOC) to mineral surfaces in low-organic-carbon soils and sediments remain unclear. The objectives of this ...
Depositional and diagenetic characteristics of Waulsortian-type buildups in the Lodgepole formation: Big Snowy Mountains, Montana, and Dickinson Field, North Dakota
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Three distinct lower Mississippian (Kinderhookian) carbonate buildups are found at the mouth of Swimming Woman Canyon, located on the southern flank of the Big Snowy Mountains, in central Montana. These buildups are composed ...
Depositional history of Lower Permian (Wolfcampian-Leonardian) carbonate buildups, Midland Basin, Upton County, Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
A north-south oriented trend of Wolfcampian-Leonardian carbonate buildups is located in the southwestern Midland Basin, Upton County, Texas. The buildup trend is located west of the eastern faulted margin of the Central ...
The determination of phase relations in the CH₄-H₂O-NaCl system at 2 and 5 kbars, 300 to 600° C using synthetic fluid inclusions
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Fluid inclusions were synthesized, using quartz and fluorite as host minerals, to determine the phase relations of the CH₄-H₂O-NaCl system at pressures of 2 and 5 kbars and temperatures of 300, 400, 500, and 600°C . Known ...
Pyridine sorption to mineral surfaces: a fourier transform infrared spectroscopy study
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Sorption of organic contaminants affects their bioavailability and therefore the success of biodegradation in the subsurface. The bioavailability of complex mixtures in low organic matter environments is affected by the ...
Paleoseismology study of the Cache River Valley, southern Illinois, and New Madrid seismic zone, southeast Missouri and northeast Kansas
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Our understanding of earthquake hazard in the mid-continent region of the United States has benefited greatly from paleoseismology studies. Numerous earthquake-induced features have been documented throughout the region, ...
Lithology and cyclicity in the deposition of the Middle Ordovician McKee Sand member of the Tulip Creek Formation (Simpson Group) in the Tobosa Basin of Southeast New Mexico and West Texas
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
The lower Paleozoic rocks deposited on the inner craton of North America are characterized by thick sections of carbonate rocks separated by thin units of sandstones and shales. The origins of these sandstones are poorly ...
The effect of triethyl phosphate on the biodegradation of diesel fuel
(Texas A&M University, 1999)
Bioremediation is a repudiation technique that is gaining popularity because of its low cost and the ability to perform in situ treatments in contaminated surface and subsurface environments. The effectiveness of bioremediation ...
