Stratigraphy and Paleolimnology of the Green River Formation, Western USA by Michael Elliot Smith,Alan R. Carroll Pdf
This volume presents a suite of detailed stratigraphic and sedimentologic investigations of the Eocene Green River Formation of Wyoming, Colorado and Utah, one of the world’s foremost terrestrial archives of lacustrine and alluvial deposition during the warmest portion of the early Cenozoic. Its twelve chapters encompass the rich and varied record of lacustrine stratigraphy, sedimentology, geochronology, geochemistry and paleontology. Chapters 2-9 provide detailed member-scale synthesis of Green River Formation strata within the Greater Green River, Fossil, Piceance Creek and Uinta Basins, while its final two chapters address its enigmatic evaporite deposits and ichnofossils at broad, interbasinal scale.

Limnogeology: Progress, Challenges and Opportunities by Michael R. Rosen,David B. Finkelstein,Lisa Park Boush,Sila Pla-Pueyo Pdf
This book honors the career of Professor Elizabeth Gierlowski-Kordesch who was a pioneer and leader in the field of limnogeology since the 1980s. Her work was instrumental in guiding students and professionals in the field until her untimely death in 2016. This collection of chapters was written by her colleagues and students and recognize the important role that Professor Gierlowski-Kordesch had in advancing the field of limnogeology. The chapters show the breadth of her reach as these have been contributed from virtually every continent. This book will be a primary reference for scientists, professionals and graduate students who are interested in the latest advances in limnogeologic processes and basin descriptions in North and South America, Europe, Africa, and China. *Free supplementary material available online for chapters 3,11,12 and 13.

LITHOFACIES, DEPOSITION, EARLY DIAGENESIS, AND POROSITY OF THE UTELAND BUTTE MEMBER, GREEN RIVER FORMATION, EASTERN UINTA BASIN, UTAH AND COLORADO by S. Katherine Logan,J.Frederick Sarg,Michael D. Vanden Berg Pdf
The freshwater lacustrine environment of the Uteland Butte member of the lower Green River Formation in the eastern part of Utah’s Uinta Basin was correlated and mapped from outcrop to the subsurface using lithofacies and sequence-stratigraphic boundaries from four major flooding events. The study area extends from the outcrop on the western side of the Douglas Creek Arch, where lake-margin sediments occur, to cores from the Greater Natural Buttes natural gas field in central Uintah County, where sublittoral facies are predominant.

Sedimentology of Freshwater Lacustrine Shorelines in the Eocene Scheggs Bed of the Tipton Tongue of the Green River Formation, Sand Wash Basin, Northwest Colorado by Henry W. Roehler,Geological Survey (U.S.) Pdf
Two freshwater shorelines are present in the Scheggs Bed of the Tipton Tongue of the Green River Formation along Hardgrove Rim in the Sand Wash basin. The shorelines are part of Lake Gosiute, which occupied southwest Wyoming, northeast Utah, and northwest Colorado during the Eocene Epoch. The rocks comprising the shorelines range in thickness from about 40 feet to 275 feet. They are composed of thick beds of resistant quartzose sandstone, and interbed- ded thin, less resistant conglomerate, siltstone, shale, oil shale, carbonaceous shale, and coal. The shorelines are vertically and horizontally divisible into fluvial channel, mud- flat, swamp, strandline, nearshore, and offshore lithofacies, which are defined by their characteristic lithologies, their sedimentary structures, or both. Each lithofacies can be identified and correlated in the outcrops along Hardgrove Rim. The term shoreline in this report refers to all of the subaerial and subaqueous margins of a lake. The investigations have revealed that the shorelines ·of the Scheggs Bed prograded extensively and that they were entirely wave dominated. They had maximum widths of about 10 miles and probably sloped less than 1 o from back shore areas lakeward to water depths below wave base. Three different environments were present along the shorelines at the land-water interface: (1) strandlines, where there were sand beaches with swash zones; (2) swamps, where vegetation grew in backshore areas out into the lake; and (3) mudflats, where wave erosion caused flooding of parts of the backshore. A columnar section illustrates freshwater lacustrine shoreline deposits that are typical of the Scheggs Bed of the Tipton Tongue and of other tongues and members of the Green River Formation.
