A Uintan (Late Middle Eocene) Flora and Fauna from the Uinta Basin, Utah
… invertebrate, and vertebrae fossils from the Uinta Formation in the Uinta Basin, south of Myton, Utah, USA, provides evidence of environmental change. Paleobotanical specimens are preserved in late stage Uinta Lake sediments and coarse-grained fluvial sediments which are stratigraphically 650 …

Facies, stratigraphy, and mineralogy of the carbonate marker and D marker units, lower Green River Formation, Uinta Basin, Utah
… within the Lower Green River Formation in the Uinta basin. Both units were measured in a series of accessible canyons along the Roan Cliffs on the southern margin of the basin. This was accomplished by incorporating measured outcrop, petrographic analysis, X-ray fluorescence, X-ray diffraction, …

Analysis of faults and fractures, and their impact on a tight gas sand resource play in the Uinta Basin
Includes illustrations, maps.

Seismic and Well Log Attribute Analysis of the Jurassic Entrada/Curtis Interval Within the North Hill Creek 3D Seismic Survey, Uinta Basin, Utah, A Case History
3D seismic attribute analysis of the Jurassic Entrada/Curtis interval within the North Hill Creek (NHC) survey has been useful in delineating reservoir quality eolian-influenced dune complexes. Amplitude, average reflection strength and spectral decomposition appear to be most useful in locating …

Mapping and Kinematic Structural Analysis of the Deep Creek Fault Zone, South Flank of the Uinta Mountains, Near Vernal, Utah
The geology along the southern flank of the Uinta Mountains, located north of Vernal, Utah, has been mapped at the 7.5' scale within two quadrangles: the Dry Fork and Steinaker Reservoir Quadrangles. Ambiguities dealing with stratigraphy, structural geology, and geohazards are currently being …

Probabilistic source-to-sink analysis of the provenance of the California paleoriver: implications for the early Eocene paleogeography of western North America
… in the Roan Cliffs on the southern margin of the Uinta Basin, UT make up a genetically related lobate wedge of dominantly fluvial deposits. Estimates of the size of the river that deposited this wedge of sediment vary by more than an order of magnitude. Some authors suggest the sediments are …

Gravity constraints on extension and magmatism in the northernmost Rio Grande rift, northern Colorado
… (RGR) is a north-trending belt of extensional basins extending from southern New Mexico to central Colorado, where its physiographic expression ends. Opening of the RGR initiated in the late Oligocene forming a series of rift basins linked by accommodation zones where the amount of extension …

Inversion of azimuthal velocity and amplitude variations for seismic anisotropy
… it. The Altamont-Bluebell play is within the Uinta Basin in northeast Utah, and is considered an unconventional play in the sense that natural fractures act as fluid storage and conduits in mostly the tight sandstones and partially in the tight carbonates. Consequently, analyzing the azimuthal …

New incision rates on the Colorado River system based on cosmogenic burial dating of terraces : implications for a transient knickpoint at Lees Ferry and differential uplift of the Rocky Mountains
… Colorado Rockies relative to the Canyonlands and Uinta Basin regions. This may be driven by mantle bouyancy associated with the Aspen Anomaly of central Colorado. The overall conclusions of this paper are that: 1) differential incision across the Lees Ferry and Desolation knickpoints records …
