Paleosol evolution in a sequence stratigraphic framework, Cretaceous Ferron Notom Delta, south central Utah, U.S.A.
Hydromorphic paleosols have been previously thought of as ever wet and poorly developed, and lacking useful paleoenviromental and paleoclimatic indicators. However, a suite of pedogenic features and geochemical attributes of hydromorphic floodplain paleosols of the youngest non-marine (100ka) …

Sequence stratigraphic relationships and facies architecture of Turonian-Campanian strata, Kaiparowits Plateau, south-central Utah
Includes bibliographical references (volume 2 pages 279-315).

Heterogeneity, paleohydrology, and 3D facies architecture of ancient point bars, Ferron Sandstone, Notom Delta, South-central Utah
… Ferron Sandstone, Notom Delta in south-central Utah. Extensive plan view exposures with local vertical cliff exposures allowed documentation of channel belt dimension, migration pattern (translation versus expansion) and facies architectures. The cliff exposures allow documentation of …

Reservoir Characterization and Outcrop Analogs to the Navajo Sandstone in the Central Utah Thrust Belt Exploration Play
… Flat/Devils Canyon area of the San Rafael Swell, Utah. These outcrops are located approximately 60 kilometers (45 mi) east of the recently discovered Covenant oil field which is located in the central Utah thrust belt exploration play. The reservoir for the Covenant field is the Navajo Sandstone. …

CONTRASTING PROCESSES OF DEPOSITION IN THE LATE CRETACEOUS PANTHER TONGUE SANDSTONE OF CENTRAL UTAH: THE ROLE OF AUTOGENIC VERSUS ALLOGENIC PROCESSES, AND THE IMPORTANCE OF HYPERPYCNAL FLOW
… of the Late Cretaceous Star Point Formation in central Utah to characterize its diverse deltaic depositional styles, and to explain what process or processes drove their development. Based on seventeen measured sections, supplemented by photomosaics and well logs, three facies associations are …

Carbonate Carbon Isotope Chemostratigraphy from the Ruby Ranch Member of the Cedar Mountain Formation in the Western San Rafael Swell
… Member of the Cedar Mountain Formation in East-Central Utah represents terrestrial deposits in the early Cretaceous Period. This member has been studied at multiple field locations and has been determined to span the Aptian-Albian Boundary based on chemostratigraphic and detrital zircon studies. …

The Dogma of the 30 Meter Riparian Buffer: The Case of the Boreal Toad (Bufo boreas boreas)
… example. We monitored toad populations in south-central Utah using radio telemetry during the summers of 2003 and 2004. We found 30 m buffers inadequate for protecting boreal toads and suggest this is likely true for other species as well. Managers must consider several factors when constructing …

Structural style of the San Francisco Mountains, Sevier fold-thrust belt, Utah
… within the San Francisco Mountains in west-central Utah. Correlations with the better studied Canyon Range-Willard thrust to the north and the Wah Wah thrust to the south are not well established. The Canyon Range thrust to the north has a forward-breaking sequence, a minimum of 100 km of …

Remote Terrain Navigation for Unmanned Air Vehicles
… In a flight test through Goshen Canyon in central Utah, an SUAV biased its planned path by 3 to 10~m to the right as it flew to center itself through the canyon and avoid the possibility of crashing into a canyon wall.

EFFECTIVENESS OF STRAW BALE CHECK DAMS AT REDUCING POST-FIRE SEDIMENT YIELDS FROM EPHEMERAL CHANNEL CATCHMENTS
… the 2010 Twitchell Canyon Fire in south central Utah. Each pair consisted of two adjacent catchments that had similar physical characteristics and areas, with catchment areas ranging from ~0.2 to 1.6 ha (~0.5 to 4.0 ac). For each pair we treated one catchment with four straw bale check …
