		In addition, changes in paleowater depth scale as ~1.48 times eustatic variation, owing to water loading and unloading as sea level rises and falls (apparent sea level change of Pekar et al., in press a).
		In a comprehensive two-dimensional backstripping study of the Oligocene to middle Miocene of the New Jersey margin, Steckler et al.
		(1999) concluded that clinoform rollovers (paleoshelf edges) at sequence boundaries correspond to paleowater depths of ~60-130 m.

		Foraminifer counts were made as part of preliminary paleowater depth estimates.
		This methodology was used to gain a preliminary understanding of major changes in paleoenvironments and therefore, to infer changes in paleowater depth.
		A rigorous quantitative biostratigraphic analysis involving further subdivision of the foraminifer species and statistical analysis would be required to gain a detailed understanding of the variations in paleowater depth experienced at the B-2 core locations.

	TRIBUTARY RESPONSE TO LATE WISCONSIN PALEOWATER LEVELS IN THE NORTHERN MISSISSIPPI ALLUVIAL VALLEY OF MISSOURI AND ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Paleowater levels were continuously high during the accumulation of this slackwater sediment at most locations because there is no evidence of oxidation, plant roots, or burrows that might occur if the water level receded and the sediment became exposed.
		In contrast, tributaries on the eastern side of Crowleys Ridge (the divide between the Western and Eastern Lowlands) were not permanently inundated and have no slackwater fill.
		This thinner to absent fill in tributaries to the south suggests that paleowater levels in the Mississippi Valley became relatively lower or sediment load was reduced downstream.

		With these modern benthic foraminiferal data as a reference the Integrated Paleontological Systems (IPS) software was used to calculate the most likely paleowater depth, and the minimum and maximum water depths for each sample.
		In addition to estimates of paleowater depth, IPS allowed analysis of faunal discontinuities (dramatic excursions) using a cosine-theta calculation that detected and helped to define stratigraphic boundaries.
		Discontinuities could further be classified as local or regional events or sampling artifacts by calculating separately for the benthic and planktonic components.

	CONSTRAINING PALEOENVIRONMENT AND PALEOWATER DEPTH USING BENTHIC FORAMINIFERAL ASSEMBLAGES FROM CARBONATE SEDIMENTS ... (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		During ODP Leg 194, a series of eight sites, on two transects, was drilled through Oligocene to Holocene mixed carbonate and siliciclastic sediments that record the depositional history of the Marion Plateau.
		This project reconstructs paleoenvironments, including paleowater depths, on the Miocene-aged carbonate platform sequences of the Marion Plateau using quantitative benthic foraminiferal presence, absence, morphology and assemblage data as indicators for environmental conditions at the time of deposition.
		Benthic foraminifers were counted from thin sections made from samples taken from three drilling sites from ODP Leg 194: bryozoan-dominated intervals at sites 1193 and 1194 (Northern Marion Plateau) and coralline red algae-dominated Site 1196 (Southern Marion Plateau).

	Paleoclimatic Indicators in Paleosols Underlying Pennsylvanian Coal Beds: USA (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		Several characteristics of the paleosols indicate long-term soil formation prior to the onset of peat formation.
		Regional description of soil types under any given coal bed allows reconstruction of the paleowater table, the paleoclimate, the lateral variation in soil types (catena), and surficial relief.
		Lower and lower Middle Pennsylvanian paleosols under coal beds in the Appalachian basin have features such as gleization, well-crystallized clay minerals, and the absence of subaerial exposure features, all of which indicate peat formation was initiated on poorly drained aquic Inceptisols.

	New Agriculturist: Focus on . . . Water: tapping into the old and the new (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		The presence of this isotope indicates that the water is a young, renewable resource which can be exploited for water extraction.
		However, other areas in the region were dated using radioactive carbon-14 (14C) indicating that these reservoirs contained only 'paleowater' (rainwater from 6000 years ago).
		Like any other ancient and non-renewable resource, extraction of this water is known as 'mining' and extraction rates have to be monitored very carefully if the reservoir is not to run 'dry'.

	ABSTRACT: 6500 BP Oldsquaw duck (Clangula hyemalis ) from northern Ellesmere Island, Arctic Archipelago, Canada. (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
		These deposits represent a marine, prodeltaic sedimentary environment that emerged from the fiord as the result of postglacial isostatic uplift.
		Comparison of the specimen's present elevation and age with the inlet's emergence curve indicates the duck was buried in paleowater depth of 38 m.
		Isostatic uplift is ubiquitous in the Canadian Arctic, exposing ocean bottoms and prodeltas.

		The input data required are observations in the form of digitized and age-dated horizons, lithology, and the amount of erosion constructed from a well logs or outcrop section.
		You also need to have an estimate of paleowater depths.
		This can be derived from paleontologic data or seismic profiles.

	Tectonic erosion of the Peruvian forearc, Lima Basin, by subduction and Nazca Ridge collision
		Subsidence of Lima Basin, part of the Peruvian forearc, is controlled by tectonic erosion by the subducting Nazca plate.
		Multichannel seismic reflection data coupled with age and paleowater depth constraints derived from Ocean Drilling Program (ODP) coring now allow the rates of erosion to be reconstructed through time.
		In trenchward locations the forearc has experienced limited recent relative uplift (700–850 m) likely due to preferential basal erosion under the center of Lima Basin.

	TPS Java Province, Southeast Sumatra, Indonesia - ARDJUNA ASSESSMENT UNIT (38240201)
		There are five major stratigraphic intervals that produce hydrocarbons in the Ardjuna assessment unit each with associated trap types: 1) Jatibarang tuff, 2) Talang Akar sandstones, 3) Batu Raja carbonates, 4) Upper Cibulakan clastics and carbonates, and 5) Parigi carbonates (Fig.
		Some of these stratigraphic intervals form geographic trends; the marine carbonate reefs, for example, are located on topographic highs (frequently north/south trending fault blocks) and occupy areas of favorable paleowater depth.
		The oldest producing stratigraphic horizon is volcanic tuff of the Jatibarang Formation.

	Well-Log Sequence Stratigraphy with "tops only"
		Well-log Sequence Stratigraphic analysis is a methodology that permits a geologist and geophysicist to subdivide a stratigraphic section into a series of time related 3rd Order Depositional Sequences and Systems Tracts.
		This is accomplished by using marker species, their numerical age, superpositional relationships, paleowater depth, their association with well developed shale sections, high gamma and low resistivity, well-log signatures.
		NOTE:“Tops only” reports include Well-Log Sequence Stratigraphy with marker species, numerical ages, paleowater depth, well-log, Sequence Boundaries, Maximum Flooding Surfaces and Systems Tract boundaries.

	Scientists, policymakers discuss water resources
		It’s up to people like city of Santa Fe hydrogeologist Claudia Borchert and Santa Fe County Manager Gerald Gonzáles to bridge the information gap between scientists and policymakers.
		The scientists like to pepper their talk and their papers with words like piezometer, vadose zones and paleowater components.
		Managers and elected officials, like Los Alamos County Councilor Jim Hall, who attended the conference, hope the ongoing scientific studies translate into answers for some vexing questions: How much water is out there?

	ODP Leg 171B (Blake Nose)
		As continental margin subsidence was largely completed by the Early Cretaceous the present bathymetric profile at Blake Nose is comparable with that which existed in the early Cenozoic, once corrections for eustatic sea-level fluctuations are made.
		It is therefore possible to make unusually accurate estimates of paleowater depths for sedimentary cores taken from the paleoslope.
