035-Barrier-&-Carbonate-Shelf

035 Upper Mississippian Barrier and Carbonate Shelf model for North East Kentucky in vicinity of I 64 and for Pound Gap (Ferm et al 1981). This diagram has been modified from Ferm's original to capture how the barrier clastics overlie and build out over and locally interfinger with the carbonates!!
