1 July 11, 2012 3:00PM ≈112 0 F Jim Sanovia and students standing on White Clay Fault

2 OSSPEEC Geological Engineering / Geology projects near Pine Ridge, South Dakota Geology of the White Clay fault area 1:24k quads Structural geology of the White Clay fault area Stratigraphy of the White Clay fault area quads Baseflow analysis of White River streamflow 1992 - 1997: evidence of structural influence on ground water recharge? Student Outcomes

3 Research Area

4 Dr. J. Foster Sawyer teaching hands on field methods for geologic mapping OSSPEEC interns quickly are able to become independant

5 Dr. Hannan LaGarry explains the fossilifiours Niobrara formation to the group Dr. Foster Sawyer demonstrates field sampling Instructors also teach students how to properly take field notes, field drawings, prepare their note books, field bags, equipment etc.

6 Evidence of structural influence on ground water recharge All pictures taken mid-July 2012 No stream flow recorded This image about 50 miles downstream from images to the right Various stream flow

7 Field geologic mapping brought into ArcInfo and digitized to make the Tribe’s first ever 1:24k geologic maps Baseflow analysis of White River streamflow Intern learning GIS geodatabase management Field Work to Computer Work

8 Dr. Hannon LaGarry brought pre-k12 science teachers from the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation to learn and watch Jim Sanovia and OLC-SDSM&T interns make geologic maps in the filed. Dr. LaGarry Jim Sanovia Interns Jim Sanovia Interns Outcome: Community learning experience -- Pre-k12 science teachers observing and learning from faculty and interns in the field -- Faculty learning the needs of the community from the pre-k12 science teachers July 23, 2012 11:30AM ~105 0 F Interns geologic mapping
