A11: Injection Induced Seismicity in Culberson County, Texas
The purpose of this project is to better understand how deep injection of wastewater from hydraulic fracturing is causing seismicity. Numerous studies have established a relationship between the two (Weingarten et al. 2015), but it is unclear why some faults become active due to the fluid injection and others do not. Our aim is to […]

A17: Lead Analysis of a Vacant Property In Hamilton, Ohio of Paint, Soil, Dust, and Road Sediment Present to Determine Similarities in the Source Lead
Hamilton, Ohio is a post-industrial city in southwestern Ohio with many vacant properties that are being rehabilitated for economic growth. Due to the history of industrialism, Hamilton is at a higher risk of environmental contamination. Samples were collected from a residential property near The Great Miami River that is at high risk of contamination because […]

B53: SEM Imaging and Geochemical Analyses of Sands from an Active Dune System near Tonopah, Nevada
Tonopah is a small town in the south-central portion of Nevada with a rich history of silver mining and a star sand dune complex known as Crescent (Tonopah) Sand Dunes just west of town. Because sand dunes accumulate sediments from broad geographic areas, sands from these environments are often used as a standard to describe […]
