It is with great pleasure that we welcome you to celebrate the diversity and excellence of faculty-student collaboration at GVSU. In its 23rd year, Student Scholars Day continues to grow in scope, including six hundred students and mentors in over four hundred presentations. We are excited to support the achievements of these students representing seventy diverse majors across the university. We encourage you to visit presentations of interest in a variety of disciplines and presentation formats, and to engage these students in meaningful discussions of their work. This event is a true celebration of creative thought and practice. Many have contributed to make this growing event a success. We are especially grateful for the hard work and patience of Shelley Sickrey, Jamesha Tiner, Dana Arnold, Natalia Blanco, Lavar Green-Jackson, Kristin Schepke, and LaMaiya Wright who made this process manageable and enjoyable. We thank the members of the 2019 SSD committee, Feryal Alayont, Alice Chapman, Elizabeth Flandreau, Lauren Keough, Andrew Lantz, Vinicius Lima, Leifa Mayers, Melissa Morison, Debbie Morrow, Ross Reynolds, Michael Scantlebury, Dwayne Tunstall, Richard Vallery, and Todd Williams, for their dedication and continuous flow of creative ideas. It takes an entire year to put together a program like this, and we appreciate the hours spent engaging with us in this process. Once again our deepest gratitude goes to Dan Slaughter for all of his work in the web registration for SSD. We would also like to thank the Event Services staff for their assistance and patience. We would also like to thank Jeff Woollet for assisting in the preparation of Henry Hall. Thank you to Becky Oppman for her artistic contributions to this abstract book. Her submission was one of several pieces submitted in response to a student competition hosted by the Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarship. Becky’s piece was selected to serve as the cover by the SSD committee. Thanks to our student, faculty, and staff volunteers for their commitment to the university’s mission and values, as evidenced by their involvement in this important activity. We value the time and effort given to this event. A very special thank you goes to the faculty mentors who work collaboratively with undergraduate and graduate students in their scholarly and creative pursuits. We know it takes a great deal of time and dedication, but these experiences make a formidable impression on the education of GVSU students. We applaud your commitment and passion for teaching and learning. And finally, a day like this does not happen without outstanding students like this year’s SSD presenters. These students have sought ways to connect their classroom experiences with scholarly and creative practice. They have engaged in a process of discovery that is often difficult and demanding. We thank these students for taking full advantage of their liberal education at GVSU. We are proud of their achievements and excited to share their success. Please enjoy this day of celebration. Attend the many presentations available throughout the day.

Statement from the Cover Artist Becky Oppman My artwork for the 2019 Student Scholars Day book cover is an abstract representation of the synthesis of many different academic fields forming the world of scholarship. Science, mathematics, history, art, psychology, and all other academic fields are related through the practice of research, which I see as the essence of Student Scholars Day. Visually, the artistic method of digital collage is used to represent the interaction between all of these fields. 4 Student Scholars Day Lunch Kirkhof Center 2204 (Pere Marquette), Allendale Campus 12:00 p.m. (Invitation Only) Preparing and Celebrating Graduate School Bound Students The Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarship and The Graduate School is hosting a lunch for GVSU students, and their faculty mentors, who are preparing for graduate school programs.

P. Douglas Kindschi, Dean of Science and Mathematics, was enthusiastically supportive, thus Student Research Day (SRD) was born. It was decided to hold the event on April 12, 1996, in conjunction with the dedication and celebration of the new Seymour and Esther Padnos Hall of Science. The first-time event was expected to draw about thirty student participants. All expectations were exceeded when the registration period ended with over 150 presenters committed to present almost 100 presentations. The first event was a tremendous success; however, it was unknown whether SRD could be a successful “stand alone” event. These fears were quickly allayed when the second annual Student Research Day was held in April of 1997 and proved to be a great success with a similar level of participation. The event became popular enough to get requests from students outside of science and mathematics majors who wanted to present their work. An effort began to make the event truly university-wide, which then Provost Glenn Niemeyer whole-heartedly supported. Students from all majors were encouraged to present and/or exhibit their faculty-mentored scholarly work at the event. To help make the event more inclusive, its name was changed from Student Research Day to Student Scholarship Day. The first university-wide event doubled in size with nearly 300 students giving almost 200 presentations in 1998. The first SSD keynote speaker was Dr. Robert Powell, Professor of Biology at Avila College, who talked about “Student/Faculty Collaboration: Teaching and Scholarship.” Another name change occurred in the Fall of 2009, this time to Student Scholars Day. The name change was instituted to combat occasional confusion over the nature of the event. “It’s still very focused on student work, but the new name takes away any ambiguity about what the purpose of the day is,” said Susan Mendoza, Director of the Office of Undergraduate Research and Scholarship.

  • Business Development Opportunities in the Utica Shale Play in Consideration of the Geographic Alignment of the Fairway
    Business Development Opportunities in the Utica Shale Play in Consideration of the Geographic Alignment of the Fairway Defining Business Opportunities within a Geographic Footprint Jim Scherrer, Energy Resources Director Geologic Analysis November 2015 The purpose of this document is to highlight the current business development opportunities that arise across the breadth of the Utica Shale fairway. The oil and gas resources underlying the Marcellus from within the “Utica Shale” play have become better defined through the shale resource exploration and recovery operations of various exploration and production (E&P) Above: The “tiramisu model” companies. The geographic alignment is unique and now is provides a visualization of the better defined; offering opportunities for business horizontal drilling taking place in development that aligns with the geography of the fairway. shale repositories worldwide. Additionally, boundaries such as the “Line of Death” for economic quantities of oil and gas within the play have been better delineated. More recent test drilling within the Appalachian Basin below the Marcellus (Devonian Period), in stratigraphy generally known as the “Utica” (Ordovician Period), there has been a resurgence of activity as this carbon-rich play has yielded unexpected, very positive results. This Utica formation assessment also includes the Point Pleasant formation. Taury Smith (NY State Geological Survey) says the Utica Shale play is more appropriately called the “Utica Shale and associated organic‐rich calcareous shale and interbedded limestone and shale play.” This report relies on many sources, but primarily the Utica Shale Appalachian Basin Exploration Consortium (the Consortium). The 15 members of the Consortium were joined by individuals from four state geological surveys, two universities, one consulting company, the U.S.

The views in this report therefore should not be construed as representing those of the U.S. Department of Energy or other federal agencies EIA author contact: Dr. Olga Popova Email: [email protected] U.S. Energy Information Administration | Utica Shale Play i April 2017 Introduction The U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA) is adding and updating geologic information and maps of the major tight formations and shale plays for the continental United States. This document outlines updated information and maps for the Utica shale play of the Appalachian basin. The geologic features characterized include a contoured elevation of the formation top (structure), contoured thickness (isopach), paleogeography elements, and tectonic structures (regional faults and folds, etc.), as well as play boundaries, well location, and initial GOR (gas-to-oil ratio) of wells producing from January 2004 through December 2016. EIA integrates these geologic elements into a series of maps. The Utica play map consists of layers of geologic and production information that users can view either as separate thematic maps (such as Figure 1) or as interactive layers of the U.S. Energy Mapping System. Additional map layers may be added if additional geologic data (such as petrophysical and thermodynamic formation properties) become available.

  • Analysis of Appalachia's Utica/Point Pleasant and Marcellus Formations
    Analysis of Appalachia’s Utica/Point Pleasant and Marcellus Formations’ Geology on Estimated Ultimate Recovery Nicholas Cuaresma and Brittany Martin 2019, Marietta College Cuaresma and Martin 2 Abstract: The purpose of this study was to identify the optimum horizontal wellbore azimuths in the Ordovician Utica/Point Pleasant Formation and Devonian Marcellus Formation unconventional petroleum plays in three locations in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia, from data contributed by Knobloch Petroleum of Marietta, Ohio. The assumption was that the stress state in the crust determined both the orientations of natural hydraulic fractures formed during the Pennsylvanian Alleghanian orogeny would control the orientation of the fractures formed during present day hydraulic fracturing of horizontal wells. Therefore, the orientation of the horizontal wellbores with respect to fracture orientations would affect the estimated ultimate recovery of petroleum. Multivariable regression analyses, with estimated ultimate recovery as the dependent variable and amount of water used during hydraulic fracturing, amount of sand used as a fracture proppant, and the horizontal wellbore azimuth as the independent variables, were run using data from 1400 wells. A brief overview of the geology of the Appalachian basin, the basin in which both the Utica/Point Pleasant and Marcellus formations were deposited, along with an explanation of the conditions under which natural hydraulic fracturing occurs were included in the study. The study concluded that the amount of water used during hydraulic fracturing in Ohio has the largest effect on the estimated ultimate recovery and the amount of sand used as a fracture proppant in Pennsylvania and West Virginia a numerically large effect on the estimated ultimate recovery, whereas the orientation (azimuth) of the wellbore appears to have an insignificant effect.
