In hydrogeology, most studies using interpolators seek to estimate water table elevations, contaminant concentrations and aquifer vulnerability. The primary goal of this research was evaluate which geospatial interpolator best suits six distinct hydrogeological parameters nine consistency tests. Water wells were selected on a portion the Serra Geral Fractured Aquifer System in Southern Brazil. ...

Abstract The glaciogenic nature of the Yudnamutana Subgroup was first recognized over a century ago, and its global significance shortly after, with eventual postulation Sturtian Glaciation Snowball Earth theory. Much debate on origin timing these rocks, locally globally, has ensued in years since. A significant corpus research lithology, sedimentology, geochronology formal lithostratigraphy se...

Abstract Accurate lithostratigraphy framework of the Central Qilian belt is key to understand subduction-collision Proto-Tethyan Ocean in NE Tibetan Plateau. The Dongchagou and Moshigou formations share similar detrital zircon age populations with youngest peak at ca. 1.15–1.21 Ga, which consistent granitoid gneiss Liujiatai Formation. In combination rock assemblages, metamorphic facies, associ...
