1996 Kansas Geological Society Field Trip - Carbonate Petrology - 180 Minutes; Kansas Geological Foundation - Wichita State University. 
     The Chase Group outcrops of northcentral Kansas and southern Nebraska were the focus of study for the 1996 Kansas Geological Society field trip.  This tape was prepared by Dr. Sal Mazzullo of Wichita State University and discusses carbonate development.

Oasis - 45 minutes; Century One.
     This tapeis without narration but has original music by Tangerine Dream.  It displays the forces of nature and the natural architecture of the American Southwest.  There some fine portrayals of the stratigraphy of the area.

Pennsylvanian Shallow Water Clastic Sediments of Western Arkansas and Eastern Oklahoma - 90 minutes. 
     This tape describes the meandering stream model of clastic sedimentation including examples of Hartshone point bar sequences and the deltaic model of clastic sedimentation including examples of Atoka, Hartshone, and Bluejacket deltaic sequences.

Reefs Past to Present - 28 minutes
     Geologists piece together evidence concerning the 250 million year history of the Capitan Reef in Texas using microscopic analysis, topographic maps and cross sectional drawings.

Sample Examination - 26 minutes; American Association of Petroleum Geologists

Sequence Stratigraphy - 45 minutes; RMAG.
