Petroleum Geology of the Utica/Point Pleasant Play in Washington County, Ohio
(East Carolina University, 2016-07-20)
The early Late Ordovician interval, known as the Utica-Point Pleasant play, in southeastern Ohio is poorly constrained due to limited data sets. A previous study by the Appalachian Basin Oil and Natural Gas Research ...
NUTRIENT AND BACTERIA DYNAMICS OF PACKAGE TREATMENT PLANTS IN COASTAL CARTERET COUNTY, NORTH CAROLINA
(East Carolina University, 2016-08-18)
Nutrient and bacteria enrichment problems are well documented in the waterways along North Carolina's coast. Surface and subsurface wastewater inputs have been documented as a source of these pollutants in a variety of ...
EXAMINING THE IRON ISOTOPE GEOCHEMISTRY OF OLIVINE IN THE SKAERGAARD LAYERED MAFIC INTRUSION, EAST GREENLAND
(East Carolina University, 2018-07-24)
Despite reports of significant fractionation of iron isotopes occurring under magmatic and hydrothermal conditions, the mechanisms that cause and control fractionation in magmatic systems remain poorly understood. Previous ...
Characterizing Coastal Subenvironments with Modern Foraminiferal Assemblages: Bear Island and Bogue Banks, North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2018-08-30)
North Carolina's coastline consists of an extensive barrier island system, with inlets acting as pathways for the exchange of sediment and water from estuarine and open ocean environments. Reconstructing past coastal changes ...
Holocene Paleoenvironmental Reconstruction of Depositional Environments on the Sunda Shelf, Southwest South China Sea, using a Multidisciplinary Approach
(East Carolina University, 2018-08-22)
The last glacial maximum, ca. 21,000 years ago, caused a fall in eustatic sea level of ca. 120 m below present. The low-gradient, shallow Sunda Shelf, Southeast Asia was subaerially exposed during this sea-level lowstand ...
IRON ISOTOPE GEOCHEMISTRY OF BULK ROCKS AND Fe-Ti OXIDES FROM THE SKAERGAARD LAYERED MAFIC INTRUSION, SE GREENLAND
(East Carolina University, 2019-07-23)
Small, but significant fractionation of Fe isotopes occurs in high-temperature igneous rocks. Despite increasing study, the exact causes of this fractionation are still debated. Therefore, a systematic study of a complete ...
GROUNDWATER FLOW IN THE UPPER CASTLE HAYNE AQUIFER: NUMERICAL SIMULATIONS AND STRONTIUM ISOTOPIC INVESTIGATIONS
(East Carolina University, 2019-10-02)
The Castle Hayne Aquifer System (CHAS) is the most extensively used aquifer system in the North Carolina Coastal Plain. Heavy groundwater withdrawals from the Upper Castle Hayne Aquifer (UCH) have occurred since the 1960’s ...
Holocene Stratigraphy and Paleoenvironmental Change of Pamlico Sound, North Carolina, USA
(East Carolina University, 2014)
Understanding how coastal systems respond to changes in climate is becoming more important due to the current increased rate of sea-level rise and possible increased hurricane intensity in the future. While coastal ecosystems ...
A Record of Holocene Climate Change from the Sunda Shelf, South China Sea
(East Carolina University, 2014)
Variations in the East Asian Monsoon (EAM) control weather and regional climate conditions in the heavily populated, agriculturally dependent regions of eastern and southeast Asia. The South China Sea (SCS), especially the ...
USING SEDIMENT ORGANIC GEOCHEMISTRY TO INTERPRET LATE HOLOCENE BARRIER ISLAND AND ESTUARINE EVOLUTION, NORTH CAROLINA, USA
(East Carolina University, 2014)
Deconvolving the relationship between meteorological and oceanographic phenomena and associated impacts to coastal systems is critical to understanding the future of coastal systems worldwide. North Carolina's barrier ...
