... by clastic rocks that accumulated in the complementary Love Ranch basin. The synorogenic to postorogenic McRae and Love Ranch Formations are as much as 1460 m thick; they filled the Love Ranch basin and onlapped the Rio Grande uplift. Present outcrops of the two formations cover an area of 100 km 2...

The southern Rio Grande rift developed along this innermost reach of Laramide magmatism. In addition, the Rio Grande rift...

.... Branson (1939) also reported Desmoinesian fusulinids 175 feet below the top of the Tensleep at Wind River Canyon. J. D. Love (1939, p. 26) divided the Amsden formation of the Absaroka Range into an upper Amsden and lower Darwin sandstone member. The name Darwin, first used by Blackwelder (1918 , p...

... distances are mostly associated with shallow seismic sources because surface‐wave excitation decreases rapidly as source depth increases ( Patton et al. , 2005 ). Rg and short‐period Love waves are sensitive to near‐surface structure ( Zeiler and Velasco, 2009 ) and experience high attenuation ( Myers...

... stratigraphic position as the black shale in the lower Tygee, and therefore they may be equivalent. Love et al . (1948 , p. 45) considered the Cloverly Formation to be divided into an upper sandstone unit and a lower limestone, shale, and mudstone unit with a total thickness of about 630 ft in the eastern...

Cumulative gas yields (billion cubic feet/km 3 ) for main source intervals of marine shales within the Mancos Shale, coastal-plain coals (including the Cameo coals), marine shale and coal combined, and nonmarine shales within the Iles and Williams Fork Formations (A) at Love Ranch #1...

... Association of Petroleum Geologists Fig. 1 —Important exploratory wells, Oklahoma and Texas Panhandle, 1978. In Love County the Union Oil Co. of California drilled the 1-2 Hoffman in SE¼ NW¼ SW¼ SE¼, Sec. 2, T6S, R3W ( Fig. 1 , no. 2). This wildcat, 3.5 mi southwest of production, opened...

... laboratory studies and creative high-pressure experiments. That, along with his generosity toward fellow geoscientists, leaves a remarkable legacy. Joe loved life and counted himself blessed by his choice of profession and his career-long association with the Geophysical Lab. He delighted in outdoor...

.... Several large ranches were leased by major oil companies. The most notable of these, which was leased by Texaco Inc., included more than 15,000 ac in Howard County. Exact terms of this agreement were not disclosed. At its regular monthly lease sales in southeastern New Mexico during 1980, the state...

... Wyoming by the U. S. Geological Survey. Definition and previous work .— Love (1939 , pp. 42, 43, 45; Love et al. , 1945 ) defined the Gypsum Spring formation in the Wind River Basin of central Wyoming. The formation there consists of as much as 250 feet of red claystone, gypsum, limestone...

...Martin W. Schramm, Jr. ABSTRACT The Joins, Oil Creek, McLish, Tulip Creek, Bromide, and Corbin Ranch Formations of the Simpson Group were correlated throughout the subsurface of Oklahoma in order to (1) establish formational equivalents between measured surface sections in the Arbuckle...

... were drilled during the year of which 12 wells were wildcats or semi-wildcats. This is an increase of 66 per cent in operations for 1944 over 1943. There were no new discoveries or producing formations for the year. Gas production was extended further westward in western Moore County. Exploration...

.... The effects are illustrated by the Billings Nose fields and the Elkhorn Ranch field. The reservoirs have low hydraulic gradients of about 2 m/km (10 ft/mi), tilted oil–water contacts with gradients of 5 m/km (25 ft/mi), and variable formation–water salinities that range from brackish to highly saline. Oil...

..., and the overthrust Belt (Wyoming, Salt River and Wasatch ranges) as its western boundary ( Love, 1961 ). The vast majority of this approximately 13,000 square mile (34,000 square/kilometers) area is underlain by the early and middle Eocene Green River and the middle Eocene Bridger formations. Older rocks crop...
