Jewell, Paul | Controls of tufa development in Pleistocene Lake Bonneville, Utah | Prominent tufa localities along the Provo level (∼14,000 14C yr B.P.) shoreline in Pleistocene Lake Bonneville have been characterized in detail. Three types of tufa are recognized: capping tufa, beachrock, and capping tufa over beachrock. Capping tufa and beachrock are end members of a continuum ... | Tufa; Pleistocene; Pluvial lakes | 2006 |

Miller, Jan D. | Direct three-dimensional liberation analysis by cone beam x-ray microtomography | Liberation of valuable minerals during size reduction is an important aspect of mineral processing technology. In practice, most quantitative information on liberation is based on the application of stereological theorems for the analysis of image data from two-dimensional polished sections. On th... | Mineral processing; Cone beam x-ray; Microtomography | 1997 |

Miller, Jan D.; Lin, Chen-Luh | Fine coal washability-liberation analysis by cone-beam X-Ray microtomography | A new method based on cone-beam x-ray microtomography is described for direct determination of the three-dimensional liberation spectrum of multiphase particles 100 microns in size or less. Such a technique may provide the basis for more detailed and accurate washability analysis in fine coal chara... | Spectrum; Sink-float; Density | 1996 |

Garrett, Timothy J. | No way out? the double-bind in seeking global prosperity alongside mitigated climate change | In a prior study (Garrett, 2011), I introduced a simple economic growth model designed to be consistent with general thermodynamic laws. Unlike traditional economic models, civilization is viewed only as a well-mixed global whole with no distinction made between individual nations, economic sectors,... | | 2012-01-01 |

Chapman, David S. | Inversion of bottom-hole temperature data: the Pineview field, Utah-Wyoming thrust belt | The present day temperature field in a sedimentary basin is a constraint on the maturation of hydrocarbons; this temperature field may be estimated by inverting corrected bottom-hole temperature (BHT) data. Thirty-two BHTs from the Pineview oil field are corrected for drilling disturbances by a Ho... | Thermal analysis; Bottom hole temperature; Inversion; Pineview Oil Field | 1988-05 |

Chapman, David S. | Thermal analysis of the southern Powder River Basin, Wyoming | Temperature and geologic data from over 3000 oil and gas wells within a 180 km x 30 km area that transect across the southern Powder River Basin in Wyoming, U.S.A., were used to determine the present thermal regime of the basin. Three-dimensional temperature fields within the transect, based on... | Thermal analysis; Inversion; Bottom hole temperature | 1996-11 |

Chapman, David S. | Exhumation of the central Wasatch Mountains, Utah: 2, thermokinematic model of exhumation, erosion, and thermochronometer interpretation | The Wasatch fault is a ~370 km long normal fault in Utah that marks the boundary between the stable Colorado Plateau to the east and the extending Basin and Range to the west. Understanding the thermokinematic evolution of this fault can provide insights into intracontinental extensional tectonics a... | Uplift; Exhumation; Wasatch Fault; Wasatch Mountains; Utah; Helium dating; Fission track; Tectonophysics; Extensional tectonics; Geothermal observations | 2002 |

Miller, Jan D. | Surface characterization and new tools for research | In the selective separation of mineral phases by flotation, surface chemistry is the principal determinant of the average contact angle for a specific mineral phase in flotation pulp. The average contact angle is, in turn, the principal determinant of the bubble-particle attachment efficiency in th... | Flotation; Minerals; Surface chemistry; Contact angle | 2007 |
