Eolian Dust and the Origin of Sedimentary Chert
C. Blaine Cecil
2004, Open-File Report 2004-1098
This paper proposes an alternative model for the primary source of silica contained in bedded sedimentary chert. The proposed model is derived from three principal observations as follows: (1) eolian processes in warm-arid climates produce copious amounts of highly reactive fine-grained quartz particles (dust), (2) eolian processes in warm-arid...

Cattle grazing and its long-term effects on sedge meadows
Beth Middleton
2004, Fact Sheet 2004-3027
Most people think that wetlands are temporary, that they fill in by natural processes, and eventually become dry land. Some of these outdated ideas have come from the way that this subject has been covered in introductory textbooks in schools (Gibson, 1996). From these texts, we learned incorrectly that over...
