In the absence o f barriers, open shelf and slope deposits predominate and range from crino idal grainstones to organic-rich mudstones that are interspersed with smal l, muddy bryozoan/microbe buildups. By Pennsylvanian time, phylloid algae and fusulinid foraminfers had evolved and combined with corals, red algae and other organisms to produce widespread mounds and buildups. These, ho wever, were generally small in overall size and thus rarely formed restric tions to open shelf water circulation. Active tectonics and repeated glac ioeustatic sea-level changes in the Late Pennsylvanian led to extensive me teoric alteration of these rocks, with locally extensive secondary porosit y development . By Mid-Permian time, continued faunal evolution led to th e development of major reef complexes, including the sponge/algal/microbia l/cement barriers of the Permian Basin. Coupled with waning southern hemi sphere glaciations and cessation of collisional tectonics, this led to wid espread restricted shelves with thick evaporates, associated dolomites and spectacular reservoirs.\n \n \n \n Modern analogs are typically used t o gain an understanding of the processes and environments of carbonate sed iment formation. But these three &ldquo\;different worlds&rdquo\; of Pale ozoic sedimentation require judicious selection and &ldquo\;blending&rdquo \; of modern analogs from a wide range of locations, coupled with outcrop studies of Mississippian to Permian strata, to make real sense of the depo sitional and diagenetic patterns found in the diverse Late Paleozoic reser voirs of the southwest. No single analog can suffice to model these compl ex strata, and there can be no simple model for understanding the porosity distribution in those reservoirs.

Here are the basic directions to the H ardin Simmons University Campus and instructions as to where the Short Cou rse is and where to park: To get to HSU from I-20 (westbound or eastbound) take exit 286 for Pine Street. There are signs at the exit for Hardin-Sim mons University. Head south on Pine Street and take a right hand turn into the East entrance of Hardin-Simmons (first right past Vogel Street). Ther e will be signs posted at the entrance for the SWS AAPG. At the next inter section turn left, and quickly left into the parking area. This parking ar ea is directly across from the Johnson Building and will be indicated with signage. From there just head on up to the Johnson Building, we are on th e first floor in the multipurpose room, I'\;ll have signage up there as well. Attached is a google map showing the way from I-20 and also a PDF o f a campus map with buildings more appropriately indicated.
