Geology of northern Utah and vicinity (UGA-27)
Edited by: L. E. Spangler and C. J. Allen
This publication contains 21 technical papers and a field trip road log covering a large geographic area and focusing on a broad range of topics, including: structural geology, stratigraphy, geomorphology, petroleum geology, coalbed gas potential, geologic hazards (landslides, liquefaction, and surface-fault rupture), drinking-water source-protection zone delineations, spring hydrology, ground-water quality, and geophysics.
