There are many references about ancient eclipses and sometimes these historic moments lead to wild stories and lunatic speculation (pun intended). And sometimes those stories lead to folklore that grow into generational legends. </p><p>Sometimes thoughtful science prevails where the stories pass on meaningful details. Hypotheses are made and lead to theories where they can possibly become accepted facts. These contrasting paths provide an opportunity for provocative discussion of the moon and deep space objects. </p><p>An example of historic reference, there are some who contend that the Bible story about Abraham who says, "And when the sun was going down...great darkness fell upon him." sees this text as an eclipse instead of nighttime. Some Bible scholars assign Abraham’s words to May 1533 BC. What is interesting in this is that there is an actual NASA database that tracks past and future eclipses ( https://eclipse.gsfc.nasa.gov/ ). Ironically, a solar eclipse occurred in Jerusalem in 1533 BC, but does that mean that the text in question is talking about an eclipse? What a wildly intriguing perspective!</p><div><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-size: large;">Tom Sale, PhD</span></b></div><div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh72-NPUozT3y7UeDGPMVAOYb_uqiViPFY_bqB5bhDuKK9rn8kebwrC36F9nDblmKZ8x3mapCwgRmSgpvI3Yubccc81i873Uni950ygqn3TFtandNlKrN4luJI5yKNtdXjeqTm5494ZavtuZbgtxGwuS8hZScWZ7Wsuq9ARDUBXVCHmVEXjEHztXNBMjyc/s300/Sale.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="300" data-original-width="300" height="300" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh72-NPUozT3y7UeDGPMVAOYb_uqiViPFY_bqB5bhDuKK9rn8kebwrC36F9nDblmKZ8x3mapCwgRmSgpvI3Yubccc81i873Uni950ygqn3TFtandNlKrN4luJI5yKNtdXjeqTm5494ZavtuZbgtxGwuS8hZScWZ7Wsuq9ARDUBXVCHmVEXjEHztXNBMjyc/s1600/Sale.jpg" width="300" /></a></div><br /><div><br /></div><div>Tom Sale, PhD, PE is currently Emeritus Professor of Civil Engineering and Past Director of the Center for Contaminant Hydrology in Civil and Environmental Engineering at Colorado State University.</div><div><br /></div><div>Tom is a recognized astronomy enthusiast leading field trips to various solar and lunar eclipses along with other astro- and geoscience events.

Thus, the "Fermi Paradox" remains unanswered. Possible explanations for "The Great Silence" abound. The 'Rare Earth' hypothesis, developed from studying the Earth’s fast start of life, but slow advance to intelligence, may offer evidence of the unlikely development of numerous intelligent civilizations. Radio telescopes, at limited wavelengths, are the current technology for ongoing investigations. </p><p>Analysis of media coverage, themes in science fiction and film, hoaxes, and psychological factors will be discussed. The scientific, societal, religious, and political impacts of an actual First Contact scenario will be included. Northwestern University’s special role in the history of SETI will be noted. The ongoing 'exoplanet' discoveries from NASA missions continue to provide numerous examples of possible earth-like planets in life-hosting systems. Future initiatives will utilize new technology by searching for signals in optical or infra-red wavelengths. Another future approach will be to search for direct evidence of life, instead of auxiliary signals. Still, what observations would offer proof of life?</p><p><b><span style="color: #2b00fe; font-size: large;">Donna Jurdy, PhD</span></b></p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQC-O6wrEy6cYDHL0lL9dmz6DEyhGCjG1m99GAh8EAGzwiX4JBNowJ6c5D8fVWv74iueWstuSajHcMC9O1s3av1t2v4lcZQYRLnIFBXRPCxak0pSjBxIgHIcp-DJFsDLneo5jVZtAKkPJzKECQ_Fr1yEhH8xaTn8fA1_5R9nHx-eGH_klgED70f_qaqZ4/s395/1516820023493.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="395" data-original-width="395" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjQC-O6wrEy6cYDHL0lL9dmz6DEyhGCjG1m99GAh8EAGzwiX4JBNowJ6c5D8fVWv74iueWstuSajHcMC9O1s3av1t2v4lcZQYRLnIFBXRPCxak0pSjBxIgHIcp-DJFsDLneo5jVZtAKkPJzKECQ_Fr1yEhH8xaTn8fA1_5R9nHx-eGH_klgED70f_qaqZ4/s320/1516820023493.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br />Dr. Donna Jurdy, Distinguished Lecturer for the Association for Women Geoscientists and Professor in the Department of Earth and Planetary Sciences at Northwestern University. Dr. Jurdy’s current research includes planetary tectonics of Venus, the magnetic lineations on Mars, and Titan's surface.<p></p><p>Dr. Jurdy is internationally-recognized for her planetary research and her ground-breaking approach to study the dynamics of plate tectonics. Her approach was to test hypotheses proposed using the present plate geometry and velocities by using past plate motions. She looked at the rotation of the lithosphere with respect to hotspots, correlations of plate speeds with latitude, speeds of continental versus oceanic plates, and motions between hotspots. She showed that episodes of back arc spreading were often triggered by changes in plate motions. Hence she played a major role in developing an approach that is now a standard and powerful tool in geodynamic studies. </p><p>These accomplishments led to her election as a Geological Society of America (GSA) Fellow. She also won a National Science Foundation award for distinguished woman scientists and served as an AAPG Distinguished Lecturer. </p><p>Dr. Jurdy continues intriguing research in comparative planetary science, looking at different planets and moons. These show her typical style: asking interesting questions and approaching them in imaginative ways. For example, showing that true polar wander may be occurring on Io in response to its extensive volcanism. Also, she looked at magnetic lineations on Mars, suggested to have been formed by plate tectonics, and found strong evidence against this attractive hypothesis. Her accomplishments led NASA to repeatedly ask her for advice on proposed planetary missions.</p><div><div style="text-align: center;">This is a free event, but registration is required:</div><div style="text-align: center;"> <b style="color: #2b00fe;"><a href="Schedule" target="_blank"><i><span style="font-size: medium;">Register Here</span></i></a></b></div></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzJjuj2DdK0BTr4Gnvr_HtOi2ROcb1cJiR3oOhODvR_-NQ6U3pkU04dIWNCTcAmV9jaO-YBio6inUrT8XYjYObeqRWd1XTDZHC-z73tl7srW7aPKQY_9q0bVzFzqMBZpw7f4zRGxWNAUI_60DkxhvjCkizOHO8vGNVeaPuxatBNqpb2uYOFctinoDwzzA/s5000/iStock-497705792.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3333" data-original-width="5000" height="213" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhzJjuj2DdK0BTr4Gnvr_HtOi2ROcb1cJiR3oOhODvR_-NQ6U3pkU04dIWNCTcAmV9jaO-YBio6inUrT8XYjYObeqRWd1XTDZHC-z73tl7srW7aPKQY_9q0bVzFzqMBZpw7f4zRGxWNAUI_60DkxhvjCkizOHO8vGNVeaPuxatBNqpb2uYOFctinoDwzzA/s320/iStock-497705792.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>MidwestGeoBloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12993718994555823734noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962172453391496128.post-63825103656354098432024-02-24T15:42:00.006-05:002024-03-05T17:12:41.294-05:00CARMEL-BASED MIDWEST GEOSCIENCES CREATES ONE OF A KIND TELESCOPE FOR SAFE VIEWING ON APRIL 8<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuT0jQ4quGdoqHTLn1XBsEL6wQSTiO9BVarkAAAebC8pGsbJTsQSTZAVqbJ7u83ZnCAd18Ug2IG_R8eVPWhUudM1GYYzwORHRfyibMh_wroxmz76sVBEynK40PVMhHc5CJjXgvRvaTriOy-CgFTmR4-Zb26Gb3T_bPYLB_smBn8Pj6VoOyQbxSTfLiLMo/s2550/Eclipse%20Image%204-01.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1483" data-original-width="2550" height="217" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhuT0jQ4quGdoqHTLn1XBsEL6wQSTiO9BVarkAAAebC8pGsbJTsQSTZAVqbJ7u83ZnCAd18Ug2IG_R8eVPWhUudM1GYYzwORHRfyibMh_wroxmz76sVBEynK40PVMhHc5CJjXgvRvaTriOy-CgFTmR4-Zb26Gb3T_bPYLB_smBn8Pj6VoOyQbxSTfLiLMo/w373-h217/Eclipse%20Image%204-01.jpg" width="373" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><p><b>CARMEL, IN</b>: Midwest GeoSciences Group has built a one-of-a-kind telescope for safely witnessing the anticipated Total Solar Eclipse on April 8 and in a partnership with the City of Carmel, will bring the telescope to the city’s official viewing event at Carmel City Hall.</p><p>People can witness the eclipse from anywhere around the world and without looking directly at the sun, thanks to a special viewing station that will be set up to capture the image of the sun and then transmit it on a live streaming platform that will be shared both on the ground and across the globe.</p><p>“Eclipse Glasses seem to be available everywhere now, but if you’re participating in the on-site festivities at City Hall, you’ll be able to look at this unique equipment and watch the real-time solar eclipse on a large TV monitor,” said Dan Kelleher, Geologist and President of Midwest GeoSciences.</p><p></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfWh9_wlnWNHM_S6DwY9Zz5aoiyjKf0Z_FO46AsixYaynW1Ni-evVrxNZTqXpfWa4rjwPXufjAR2adOJl4e5OXvcXcQ69hAbXRt-KwOebOcvOaNyoHgs5OdDdjYg1iJOunCEgYsp95RixJhslNm4hk2Y1r8cZJHkPRUdMPGe10R4q5xiyNiaNcZtMYfcI/s4032/Dan%20Kelleher%20on%20Home%20Deck%201.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjfWh9_wlnWNHM_S6DwY9Zz5aoiyjKf0Z_FO46AsixYaynW1Ni-evVrxNZTqXpfWa4rjwPXufjAR2adOJl4e5OXvcXcQ69hAbXRt-KwOebOcvOaNyoHgs5OdDdjYg1iJOunCEgYsp95RixJhslNm4hk2Y1r8cZJHkPRUdMPGe10R4q5xiyNiaNcZtMYfcI/s320/Dan%20Kelleher%20on%20Home%20Deck%201.jpg" width="240" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>The viewing station will use Smart Telescope Technology to capture the image of the sun and then electronically transmit it to a platform accessible online.

Eclipse Glasses seem to be available everywhere now, but the monitor screen allows an alternative to watch the eclipse without glasses.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZOOg5IBVieqvbNyv2ifEs6EeBcGihCOAOSeRtcMs9IhOp9d8s_5FBSu_k0YAbBOPOvaxm1bJh3IWnca0xL4GSl4aqU5jShI3ZzvaUgdQopgtW4QLzDiH86mrl2iHJvuefEl2efFOi11CBnLnFgTTUXrNFDCAWN_L0fPAwUo9tFW75E1xe42lHzMzP5w0/s2550/path%20line-01.jpg" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="1861" data-original-width="2550" height="274" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZOOg5IBVieqvbNyv2ifEs6EeBcGihCOAOSeRtcMs9IhOp9d8s_5FBSu_k0YAbBOPOvaxm1bJh3IWnca0xL4GSl4aqU5jShI3ZzvaUgdQopgtW4QLzDiH86mrl2iHJvuefEl2efFOi11CBnLnFgTTUXrNFDCAWN_L0fPAwUo9tFW75E1xe42lHzMzP5w0/w375-h274/path%20line-01.jpg" width="375" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><b><span style="font-family: arial;">CHALLENGES IN BUILDING THIS SMART TELESCOPE FOR LIVE STREAMING </span></b></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both;">The process for live streaming is a sequence of firmwares, Apps and softwares leading ultimately to YouTube Live.

Each participant successfully completed the day-long training TAKING THE MYSTERY OUT OF THE SUBSURFACE. <p></p><p>This group gets the award for the most thoughtful questions so far. Their engagement and dialogue enriched the depth of the training experience for me, the instructor, Dan Kelleher. But also their excellent questions helped each other relate to how they USE soil boring logs, not just CREATE them. Well done!</p>MidwestGeoBloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12993718994555823734noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962172453391496128.post-15915482129791629752023-11-22T14:13:00.001-05:002023-12-13T14:20:35.841-05:00Modern Technologies for Fractured Bedrock Investigations<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Thank you to the participants of "Modern Technologies and Emerging Techniques for Assessing Complex Hydrogeologic Systems in Fractured Bedrock" in Calgary. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">What a great group!! </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The positive energy and enthusiasm stood out to the instructors and me.

He lives in Raleigh, North Carolina today but he and I grew up in the same small rural town in Illinois. Tim and I were close friends from Kindergarten and we remained friends through elementary, middle, and high school. He was a notable HS athlete but my favorite times with Tim were during our summertime baseball seasons when Tim would pitch and I played short stop. I'm also going to mention our mutual friend here too, Bob Crippen, who was also a close friend since childhood and was our baseball teammate too. Bob often was the catcher behind home plate for the times that Tim pitched. Bob moved to NC last year. Today these childhood friendships are stronger than ever. I don't take them for granted.</div><div><br /></div><div>So when this personalized item arrived in the mail a few weeks ago, I knew that there's no official Thank You that could express how grateful I am for it, but more importantly for friends like Tim (and Bob). -Dan Kelleher</div>MidwestGeoBloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12993718994555823734noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962172453391496128.post-71731732959507432862022-11-16T18:49:00.002-05:002022-11-16T18:49:08.487-05:00Is it "FILL"?<p> A common question we ask ourselves at some project sites is:</p><p><b><span style="color: #cc0000; font-family: helvetica; font-size: large;">Is this surficial soil either <i>NATIVE</i> or <i>FILL</i>? </span></b></p><p>It can be daunting to determine when the soil sample looks exactly like the surrounding soil. There's lots of observations we can contrast between the soil sample and the surrounding soil. I'd like to officially state the determination is important. Just because the soil material all looks alike doesn't mean we can just blow off looking for the subsurface boundary.</p><p><b>Here's why: <i>we only get one chance to do our work right the first time.</i> </b></p><p>Sure, maybe the soil all looks alike and may be it even behaves similarly. But if nearby soil has been moved into place where the soil boring is located, do your best to identify the presence of reworked or moved soil and it's bottom boundary.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE7-iRaCE-AXeqTVsA0g2zzBUoS1lYk8fWQRqiTZw1Ox9SXWkIlHXc3R9PmvDWPg0_pxk-2B1ISdqvYJCLsd8463iAibJoDIhZarX9sQXeRYvE3LoORHalqJKz-nL9lqrmnRTevAtsYLXLc0FicZ2EL5nmx8Fj1i3euZfbc46sXF_6u_PDsZb090yU/s4032/IMG_0978.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3024" data-original-width="4032" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE7-iRaCE-AXeqTVsA0g2zzBUoS1lYk8fWQRqiTZw1Ox9SXWkIlHXc3R9PmvDWPg0_pxk-2B1ISdqvYJCLsd8463iAibJoDIhZarX9sQXeRYvE3LoORHalqJKz-nL9lqrmnRTevAtsYLXLc0FicZ2EL5nmx8Fj1i3euZfbc46sXF_6u_PDsZb090yU/s320/IMG_0978.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><p><span style="color: #2b00fe;">Some reasons include:</span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe;">1. Physical properties may be similar but will be different, every time.</span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe;">2. Re-worked sediment may contain a different invisible chemistry or chemical constituent.</span></p><p><span style="color: #2b00fe;">3. The boundary may prove valuable in a following boring or later work.</span></p><p>For soil that has been moved, re-worked, or piled, Midwest GeoSciences Group refers to it as "Quaternary Fill" on our soil boring log. We differentiate fill types based on their nature and content. </p><p>Here's some photos of a site that I recently assessed the near-surface sedimentary sequence to determine if it was moved or re-worked sediment. The variables to observe are few because the local depositional environment is an alluvium/colluvium mixture. So even the stratified re-worked soil appeared similar to the stratified water-lain soil. Scale differences of deposition are not a clear indicator and neither are color, soil classification, moisture content, associated sediments, or a measurable geotechnical property. Any of it could be native and in-situ when I see the soil sample perspective.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7164RHwTpw7LbPcQGd-r88JbEAhmegg2jXihVliR57xLoar11XLRQENEyjw8z0J_7VK4rDBnBKI2rImgPtAm7T5Ym_18UtkFK6dbzpPnZJIm3sV0fDcEJ7LroLN0WjfLR59ESbYCZ-YDXB-XLDladh83bsCKRLUfwDREq06ifdEFK7i1VkjqSwe5x/s7854/IMG_0975.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3872" data-original-width="7854" height="158" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg7164RHwTpw7LbPcQGd-r88JbEAhmegg2jXihVliR57xLoar11XLRQENEyjw8z0J_7VK4rDBnBKI2rImgPtAm7T5Ym_18UtkFK6dbzpPnZJIm3sV0fDcEJ7LroLN0WjfLR59ESbYCZ-YDXB-XLDladh83bsCKRLUfwDREq06ifdEFK7i1VkjqSwe5x/s320/IMG_0975.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWioIcVSFCCQZDNCPZLRALF6xzhL0IWJjv3hh49bV2_v7-QN1g0Ft8LXnVytPyZVPyrAqlHp4cHUZX0_4aUVK3pZjxrX2AyaKlT7ixT7ainWmdTUxd-BSr6yvRjkloAnI3XYVjK6j6pKsnzhAVq98rEziLcufdG0DueqxExo8JrbX678eUyoyW8Is1/s6006/IMG_0974.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="3892" data-original-width="6006" height="207" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgWioIcVSFCCQZDNCPZLRALF6xzhL0IWJjv3hh49bV2_v7-QN1g0Ft8LXnVytPyZVPyrAqlHp4cHUZX0_4aUVK3pZjxrX2AyaKlT7ixT7ainWmdTUxd-BSr6yvRjkloAnI3XYVjK6j6pKsnzhAVq98rEziLcufdG0DueqxExo8JrbX678eUyoyW8Is1/s320/IMG_0974.jpg" width="320" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><p style="text-align: left;">But luckily, this excavation was large and exposed a full 2D south sidewall. It allowed a visual inspection far, far beyond what a soil boring would reveal.

Each progressive project approached the subsurface differently as reflected in the boring logs, the geologic cross sections, and the resulting potentiometric surface maps and vertical flow nets.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Eventually, it was confirmed that applying fundamental depositional principles and secondary weathering observations proved important because it provided the context for understanding the variability and uniformity in soils, physical properties, and groundwater conditions that were essential for confident ground water monitoring and engineering design. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">Although the process for defining and mapping stratigraphy is a basic premise of geologic principles, the United States Environmental Protection Agency published a 2017 report about the need for understanding basic subsurface characterization titled Environmental Sequence Stratigraphy. The subsurface characterization work in Tazewell County followed the three published phases for defining and mapping stratigraphy, but the process unraveled the complex stratigraphic sequence derived from different depositional environments coupled with yielding a meaningful geologic framework that has proved valuable to the County and subsequent regional mapping by various agencies.</div><div><br /></div></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

in the boring: an ice-marginal facies and three subglacial facies. Below the Yorkville
Member is the Batestown Member which can be variable in depositional
environments and the resulting sedimentary properties.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Sorted outwash sediments of the Henry Formation and/or the Equality Formation
may occur within the Yorkville Member or Batestown Member. One of the most
interesting discoveries is when sorted sediments are present and then to
recognize its stratigraphic position and context. Without stratigraphic
control/context, understanding the relationships between borings (where the
sorted sediments are present) is virtually 'mission impossible'. But with
stratigraphic context, it gives tremendous certainty and we can correlate
buried sands without much question.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div>
<b><div style="text-align: left;"><b>Pre-Wisconsin-Age Sediments</b></div></b><div style="text-align: left;">This boring confirmed a buried "pocket" of pre-Wisconsin-Age
sediments in the area. We ran Carbon-14 dating tests of the buried topsoil and
confirmed it was pre-Wisconsin-Age and we assigned it to the Farmdale GeoSol.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Under the buried A-Horizon topsoil is a thick oxidized and unleached (OU)
weathering zone. The sedimentary sequence included both subglacial and
resedimented diamictons (glacial till) along with intervals of sorted
sediments.</div>
<div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Not only is the buried "pocket" geologically interesting and an
important discovery for regional mapping, but this single soil borings revealed
the spectrum of attributes that can be applied to most glacial sequences
anywhere.</div>

It is about taking action to tackle the global water crisis. A core focus of World Water Day is to support the achievement of <b>United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 6</b>: water and sanitation for all by 2030.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgJRx_VI0WLadsiprwcyhRNZVz9iCu8uRWYv9a_jwe1x9cUYklFPmqZjdczcBEb7-y-i5Si-Q10hOfm9-zzhYWXrB6DQ2A426NRP-XNS1j566ZnoSLWpgc5mzVxCIT9pDM1zSceoG_BQ-t0fmq3uhjN-DQXdXF2U5ksueYV2HOAe7ZIwR4yAC4j7fKf=s716" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="478" data-original-width="716" height="214" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/a/AVvXsEgJRx_VI0WLadsiprwcyhRNZVz9iCu8uRWYv9a_jwe1x9cUYklFPmqZjdczcBEb7-y-i5Si-Q10hOfm9-zzhYWXrB6DQ2A426NRP-XNS1j566ZnoSLWpgc5mzVxCIT9pDM1zSceoG_BQ-t0fmq3uhjN-DQXdXF2U5ksueYV2HOAe7ZIwR4yAC4j7fKf=s320" width="320" /></a></div><br /><p><b>GROUND WATER is the focus of World Water Day, this year. </b></p><p>We Hydrogeologists appreciate how ground water is water is present in aquifers, which are geological formations of rocks, sands and gravels that hold substantial quantities of water. Ground water feeds springs, rivers, lakes and wetlands, and seeps into oceans. Ground water is recharged mainly from rain and snowfall infiltrating the ground. Ground water can be extracted to the surface by pumps and wells.</p><p>Life would not be possible without ground water. Most arid areas of the world depend entirely on groundwater. Ground water supplies a large proportion of the water we use for drinking, sanitation, food production and industrial processes.</p><p>It is also critically important to the healthy functioning of ecosystems, such as wetlands and rivers.</p><p>Midwest GeoSciences Group works to protect ground water resources from overexploitation and pollution since it can lead to depletion, extra-costs of processing it, and sometimes even preventing its use.</p><p>Exploring, protecting and sustainably using groundwater will be central to surviving and adapting to climate change and meeting the needs of a growing population.</p><p>This month, Midwest GeoSciences Group is teaching <a href="https://midwestgeo.com/">online courses</a> that are a gigantic leap in understanding the nature of the geologic units that yield (aquifers) and protect (aquitards) groundwater.</p><p>The professionals that are hired to extract and clean up ground water search for best practices and it all starts with basic geologic principles. It’s a noble mission for Midwest GeoSciences Group but it’s also noble for those professionals whose work will last beyond our lifetimes.</p><div><br /></div>MidwestGeoBloghttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12993718994555823734noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2962172453391496128.post-10234607752195045262021-11-14T19:04:00.029-05:002023-12-13T13:43:13.805-05:00Oh that "Hydro(beer)ology Pint Glass", it's doing it's job.<p>Here's some photos showing the Hydro(beer)ology Pint Glass from friends.</p><p><a href="https://www.hydrobeerology.com/">https://www.hydrobeerology.com/</a></p><p>Show us your pint glass in action! :-) </p><p><br /></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

This year, 50+ bands will play from 20+ porches in the neighborhood located north of Main Street within the Art and Design District. </p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia_Di3bdpoLDGHLG3gq_egyDlymxakAeQnIGo0vT290p9PDeUlM4LFkQJ6f_mzjGI3JV8VKgHfffbjBhvyZHpIN4R9Y7Ds-8ky0ypxzxaa_-0-FTRjACoEzXElXtca4nTIq2y1ggeS-UU/s650/smaller+logo.png" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="215" data-original-width="650" height="106" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEia_Di3bdpoLDGHLG3gq_egyDlymxakAeQnIGo0vT290p9PDeUlM4LFkQJ6f_mzjGI3JV8VKgHfffbjBhvyZHpIN4R9Y7Ds-8ky0ypxzxaa_-0-FTRjACoEzXElXtca4nTIq2y1ggeS-UU/s320/smaller+logo.png" width="320" /></a></div><p></p><p>This year, Midwest GeoSciences Group is going to sponsor and support Porchfest on new level. </p><p><b>Midwest GeoSciences Group had the privilege of serving the City of Carmel on some past hydrogeologic and engineering projects where we sampled the deep soil sequence to bedrock. Our team developed the geologic model that’s used today by the City, and their contractors. It’s a unique privilege to decipher geologic history anywhere, but it’s very special when you can do it in your hometown.</b></p><p>MidwestGeo has donated soil columns and stratigraphic posters of “Carmel Geology” to the “<a href="https://allthingscarmel.com/">All Things Carmel Store</a>”.
