Heil Ranch Story in the Rocks Story In The Rocks A Conceptual (Rough and Greatly Simplified) Interpretation of the Geologic History of Heil Valley Ranch Open Space Setting the scene: Prior to the onset of the Laramide Orogeny, the Ancestral Rockies to the west (pushed up about 350 mya in response to the collision of continents forming the supercontinent of Pangea) had been eroded down nearly flat. The Cretaceous Seaway had totally inundated the entire area which is now Colorado, depositing thick marine deposits. About 12,000 feet of sedimentary material now blanketed the ancient metamorphic and igneous basement rocks. As the sea retreated to the east, the Fox Hills Sandstone and the Laramie Formation were the first terrestrial deposits of the newly emerging land pushed up by the Laramide Uplift. Laramie Fm.: estuary, marsh, and lagoonal Area of present central deposits transition to swampy coal forming Cretaceous Seaway retreats Colorado during the deposits as Rockies continue to rise and sea eastward as Present Day retreats eastward. Rockies begin to rise as late Cretaceous Period Laramide Orogeny begins (~70 mya) Fox Hills Sandstone: shoreline deposits as rising Rockies begin to expel the sea. about 70 mya Pierre Shale: thick (~8,000’!), W deep-water marine deposits from E peak of Cretaceous Seaway (see Great Unconformity: map below). marking about a billion years Niobrara Fm.: limestones and of missing geologic time. chalks indicate deeper water Ancient Metamorphic and conditions.

Heil Valley Ranch Morrison Fm.: mostly terrestrial, lowland swamp, and coastal marsh deposits as the land is eroded nearly flat. ~325 ~225 ~125 mya mya mya Lykins Fm.: mudstones and some dolomitic limestone deposited along the margin of invading shallow seas. Forelle Limestone Member: dolostone containing stromatolites. Forms a slight ridge since it is harder than the surrounding Lykins Fm. “Andesite” (actually Dacite) Igneous Intrusion: Injected as a sill about 63 mya associated with the Laramide Orogeny. Along with Valmont Dike, the youngest rocks in our area! Lyons Sandstone: fine grained, well cemented, cross-bedded coastal dune Great Unconformity sand plain deposits as the sea invades lowland areas of the now extensively eroded mountains. A very useful and popular building stone. Ancient Metamorphic and Igneous Basement Rocks Fountain Fm.: Coarse red sandstones and conglomerates eroded off the recently risen Ancestral Rockies close by to the west. The land was arid and deposits resembled the dry mountain debris aprons and bajadas now seen in Nevada.

Impacts of industry activity may smother/bury/kill productive biological area, but mitigation measures may be possible. Intervention This study will conduct a monitoring program to examine long-term drivers of community variability during Liberty development activities. In addition, it will test possible mitigation measures using common industry materials to “reseed” or replace habitat lost due to Liberty Island development activities. Comparison The post-development community structure will be compared against historic data to assess impacts of O&G activity. Further, artificial substrate will be compared to buried boulders to test efficacy of using industry materials to mitigate development impacts. Outcome Results will include defined spatial gradients and temporal trends in environmental conditions, benthic community structure, and kelp production in the Boulder Patch community; evaluation of the effect of sediments on Boulder Patch community; and assessment of test artificial substrates as possible habitat mitigation. Context Impacts of Sedimentation and Drivers of Variability in the Boulder Patch Community, Beaufort Sea (AK-19-01) BOEM Information Need(s): Impacts to the Boulder Patch from proposed gravel island construction were identified by local communities as a concern during scoping for Liberty Island.

  • 2016 Longshore Size Grading on a Boulder Beach
    LONGSHORE SIZE GRADING ON A BOULDER BEACH ANDREW GREEN, ANDREW COOPER, AND LESLEE SALZMANN ABSTRACT Longshore size sorting on boulder beaches has not previously been reported. In a boulder beach comprising beachrock slabs, we report systematic longshore clast size grading. The boulder beach at Mission Rocks, South Africa is deposited on an elevated (þ3 m MSL) shore platform and comprises imbricated clasts up to 5 m in the a-axis dimension (9 tonnes). The clasts are derived from adjacent intertidal beachrock and eolianite outcrops and are emplaced during high-magnitude wave events. Four distinct downdrift-fining cells are present. Each is 40–50 m long. The sorting is attributed to post-emplacement clast redistribution in which the smallest clasts are transported most frequently (by lower-magnitude storms) and therefore travel farthest downdrift. The updrift cell boundary is marked by boulders (5 m in length) that exceed the transport threshold for all but the most energetic of storms while the downdrift limit contains clasts 0.3 m in length. This mechanism of longshore size sorting does not rely on variations in longshore wave power as does cell development on sand and gravel beaches. The alongshore sorting via multiple high- (and variable-) magnitude events over a period of time, distinguishes these coarse clast deposits from those of single extreme events (whether storms or tsunamis). INTRODUCTION The longshore sorting of beach sediment by waves has received much attention. On sand and gravel beaches longshore sorting is manifest in variability of size (Komar 1977; Stapor and May 1983) and shape (Bluck 1967; Carr 1969; Carr 1971; Illenberger 1991) and may also be reflected in heavy- mineral distributions (Frihy and Komar 1991; Li and Komar 1992; Frihy and Lotfy 1997).

  • 1 El Niño and Intertidal Boulder Field Sedimentation at Point Reyes
    Blair Conklin El Niño Sedimentation Spring 2017 El Niño and intertidal boulder field sedimentation at Point Reyes National Seashore Blair Conklin ABSTRACT Wave-exposed boulder fields, a common feature of the California coast, encounter drastic fluctuations in the amount of sand within them. This study examined the inter-annual and seasonal differences of sedimentation in an intertidal boulder field from September 2014 to March 2017. The study period included one El Niño winter, characterized by increased wave energy, and two ENSO-neutral winters. I used monthly photographs to qualitatively monitor sedimentation at two intertidal boulder fields in northern California. Sand depth was also measured within the boulder fields, and those measurements were positively correlated to the photographic assessments of sedimentation. Only one of the sites exhibited a strong seasonal cycle in sedimentation. Additionally, there were no differences in sedimentation between El Niño and ENSO-neutral winters. The results of this study indicate that sedimentation and erosion on beaches can vary dramatically between adjacent shorelines based on physical factors, such as exposure to swell conditions. Monitoring and understanding coastal sedimentation can inform land management decisions, marine resource reserves, and erosional processes during climate anomalies. KEYWORDS sand; beach morphology; wave energy; intertidal; seasonal; El Niño; 1 Blair Conklin El Niño Sedimentation Spring 2017 INTRODUCTION Beach morphology can undergo drastic changes over time. Wave energy plays an important role in the transport of sediments and the transformation of sandy beach systems (Moore et al. 1999; Charlier et al. 1998; Cooper et al. 2013). Many regions of the California coast are exposed to wave energies that are produced from storms formed in the southern and northern hemispheres of the Pacific Ocean.

  • Analysis and Correlation of Growth
    ANALYSIS AND CORRELATION OF GROWTH STRATA OF THE CRETACEOUS TO PALEOCENE LOWER DAWSON FORMATION: INSIGHT INTO THE TECTONO-STRATIGRAPHIC EVOLUTION OF THE COLORADO FRONT RANGE by Korey Tae Harvey A thesis submitted to the Faculty and Board of Trustees of the Colorado School of Mines in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science (Geology). Golden, Colorado Date __________________________ Signed: ________________________ Korey Harvey Signed: ________________________ Dr. Jennifer Aschoff Thesis Advisor Golden, Colorado Date ___________________________ Signed: _________________________ Dr. Paul Santi Professor and Head Department of Geology and Geological Engineering ii ABSTRACT Despite numerous studies of Laramide-style (i.e., basement-cored) structures, their 4-dimensional structural evolution and relationship to adjacent sedimentary basins are not well understood. Analysis and correlation of growth strata along the eastern Colorado Front Range (CFR) help decipher the along-strike linkage of thrust structures and their affect on sediment dispersal. Growth strata, and the syntectonic unconformities within them, record the relative roles of uplift and deposition through time; when mapped along-strike, they provide insight into the location and geometry of structures through time. This paper presents an integrated structural- stratigraphic analysis and correlation of three growth-strata assemblages within the fluvial and fluvial megafan deposits of the lowermost Cretaceous to Paleocene Dawson Formation on the eastern CFR between Colorado Springs, CO and Sedalia, CO. Structural attitudes from 12 stratigraphic profiles at the three locales record dip discordances that highlight syntectonic unconformities within the growth strata packages. Eight traditional-type syntectonic unconformities were correlated along-strike of the eastern CFR distinguish six phases of uplift in the central portion of the CFR.
