Temperature trends of the Late Cambrian through the Middle Ordovician : implications for Ordovician climate and biodiversification
… UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] The Ordovician Period includes both the largest and longest period of sustained biodiversification--the Great Ordovician Biodiversification Event (GOBE)--and the second-largest mass extinction of the Phanerozoic--the end Ordovician mass extinction. …

The palynology of selected Ordovician localities in Scotland
Ordovician samples have been collected from various places from within three separate terranes in Scotland; the Highland Border Complex, the Southern Uplands and the Midland Valley. The samples have been palynologically processed and their assemblages studied with the aim of understanding some of …

Possible Groundwater Denitrification in the Decorah Formation (Middle Ordovician)
… Decorah Formation is a marine shale of Middle Ordovician age, overlain by an upper carbonate aquifer, that is contaminated with nitrate. The shale may contain electron donors for denitrification in the forms of organic carbon and sulfur minerals. </p><p>Three shallow monitoring wells were …

Regional dolomitization of Early Ordovician, Upper Knox Group, Appalachians
The Early Ordovician, Upper Knox Group consists of meter-scale shallowing-upward cycles that were deposited on a low-sloping ramp. Cycles formed in response to short term (<100 k.y.) eustatic sea-level fluctuations and typically have well developed tidal flat caps. Cycles are bundled into five …

The upper Red River Formation (Ordovician) in western North Dakota
<p>The upper Red River Formation in Western North Dakota consists of cyclic sedimentary rocks having four main porosity zones which contain most of the oil and gas found in the formation. It was divided into three distinct units that were traced throughout western North Dakota on mechanical logs. …

Allostratigraphy of the Upper Ordovician Blue Mountain Formation, Southwestern Ontario, Canada
The Upper Ordovician units in Southwestern Ontario record the distal response to the development of the Taconic Appalachian foreland basin. The proximal representation in Ohio and Pennsylvania, contain the Utica/Point Pleasant Play (!). The relationship between the proximal and distal portions of …

Discontinuities in the Icebox Formation (Ordovician), Williston Basin, North Dakota and Montana
<p>The Ordovician Winnipeg Group is composed of three formations; in ascending order, the Black Island Formation, the Icebox Formation, and the Roughlock Formation. The Icebox Formation is largely composed of shale. This work shows that discontinuities and coarser facies exist within the Icebox …
