Development of Miocene-Pliocene reef trend, St. Croix, U. S. Virgin Islands

Conference Gill, I ; Eby, D E ; Hubbard, D K ; ...

The Miocene-Pliocene reef trend on St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, rims the present southern western coasts of the island and includes accompanying lagoonal and forereef facies. The reef trend was established on a foram-algal bank facies that represents basinal shallowing from the deep-water pelagic and hemipelagic facies of the Miocene Kingshill Limestone. Information on facies distribution and thickness is derived from rock exposures and 22 test wells drilled to a maximum depth of 91 m. The greatest thickness of the reef facies exists in a subsidiary graben on the south coast of St. Croix. The thickness of the reef sectionmore »« less
Shape parameters and distribution of macroborings: St. Croix, US Virgin Islands

Conference Jacobs, E B - Am. Assoc. Pet. Geol., Bull.; (United States)

Many marine invertebrates that inhabit coral reefs excavate the coral substrate in order to create protective domiciles. In turn, the organisms comprising the coral-reef community display a pronounced biotic zonation that can be closely correlated to bathymetry. This study considers the distribution of these endolithic organisms covering a variety of reef habitats. Vast differences in the major environmental parameters have a profound effect upon the distribution patterns of macroboring organisms and govern the boring morphologies. Of these parameters, hydraulic energy has the strongest influences on the morphotypes and distributions of the macroborings. An equivalent macroboring assemblage dominated by sponges andmore »« less
Stratigraphy and depositional setting, Kingshill Limestone, Miocene, St. Croix, U. S. Virgin Islands

Journal Article Gerhard, L C ; Frost, S H ; Curth, P J - Am. Assoc. Pet. Geol. Bull.; (United States)

The Kingshill Limestone of St. Croix, U.S. Virgin Islands, was deposited during a transgressive-regressive cycle of the early and middle Miocene. Depositional bathymetry ranged from shallow lagoon and patch-reef environments to basin slopes, probably representing stranding to water about 500 m deep. Younger facies reflect a shoaling to probable subaerial exposure. Depositional processes included turbidity current movement of shallow-water sediments and benthic organisms into deep water, especially along the eastern margin of the depositional basin. Current indicators suggest that transport was largely toward the southwest or west. Sedimentation took place in a partly downfaulted basin that resulted from early Cenozoicmore »« less
Sustainable support systems for the Nature Conservancy`s Community Education Center, St. Croix, US Virgin Islands

Conference Jackson, O

The Nature Conservancy-Virgin Islands Program is currently renovating the historic, 24 acre Estate Little Princess in St. Croix, US Virgin Islands as a sustainable Community Education Center for conservation leadership. Once complete, the Little Princess project will provide leadership and technical training to conservation professionals throughout the southern hemisphere in a facility that incorporates the historic lessons of the past with sustainable technologies of today. In early 1994, The Nature Conservancy contracted Caribbean Infra-Tech, Inc. to design a number of sustainable energy and water projects that would serve as the foundation for a facility-wide sustainable support infrastructure. These projects included:more »« less
Fallout plutonium and natural radionuclides in annual bands of the coral Montastrea annularis, St. Croix, U. S. Virgin Islands

Journal Article Benninger, L K ; Dodge, R E - Geochim. Cosmochim. Acta; (United States)

The authors have investigated the banded coral Montastrea annularis as a recorder of the history of fallout Pu in surface seawater. To aid the Pu interpretation Ca, Mg, Sr, Na and natural radionuclides (/sup 238/U, /sup 228/Ra, /sup 232/Th and /sup 210/Pb) were also determined in the annual bands. In small samples (0.5 g) Ca, Mg and Na show correlated variations which could be due to seasonal variability in uptake. The /sup 238/U and /sup 228/Ra records were generally consistent with uptake, at constant discrimination, from surface-water reservoirs of nearly constant concentration, although one sample showed probable diagenetic addition ofmore »« less
