PPT-Alkali Anticline an introduction to mapping folded strata, distal foreland basin stratigraphy

Logistics Leave at 730 am tomorrow 15 hour drive to field areatime to sleep Be ready to map when you arrive Leave field by 430 pm It is going to be hot 89 is the forecast high for Saturday and 95 for Sunday We will reevaluate our logistics each day.

Stratigraphy is the study of the different strata or layers revealed when a slice is cut down through the earth.. The laws of stratigraphy are some of the best ways we have of understanding rock and sediment layers.. CHAPTER 8 1 INTRODUCTION Up to now, in this course, you have heard about sedimentary rocks only one the scale of hand specimens. Now it’s time for you to deal with what This chapter deal Purpose. Mapping lower Paleozoic rocks. Mapping syntectonic growth strata. First exposure to mapping faults. General geology. Straddles the boundary between basement uplift and the adjacent Powder River Basin. Goals. Describe how shell/gravel, sand, and clay/silt particles settle predictably in a basin.. Describe how deposition in moving water create predictable strata of limestone, sandstone, and shale.. Questions. Geological Attitudes & 3D Block Diagram Interpretation.
