“…These deposits are composed largely of quartz sand and gravel interbedded with kaolinite and montmorillonite layers (P14-25%) (Force & Moncure 1978). This aquifer has minor amounts of lignite and pyrite, and trace amounts of feldspar, mica and iron minerals (Glaser 1969;Trapp et al 1984).…”

ABSTRACT, The Aquia (Paleocene) and Magothy (Late Cretaceous) Formations of the Atlantic Coastal Plain represent two well-characterized (hydrodynamically and geochemically) aquifers in southern Maryland.14C measurements of the dissolved organic (DOC) and inorganic carbon (DIC) of Aquia and Magothy groundwaters have been made using accelerator mass spectrometry (AMS). Both DI14C and D014C concentrations in the initial flow path are unexpectedly low. As the water progresses farther from the recharge area, the D114C percent modern carbon (pMC) is consistently lower than the D014C pMC; this difference stays constant for all samples. The 14C-derived ages for an Aquia water sample downgradient at Site 4 are 17 ka and 12 ka for D114C and D014C, respectively. Radiocarbon ages have been compared to ages determined by two other independent dating methods: computer-simulated hydrodynamic modeling and age estimates based on changes in C1-,180 and 2H distributions, which are interpreted to be influenced by sea level and climate.

Virginia) contains thick (. 500 m) mid-Cretaceous sand-sandstone reservoirs confined by thick clay-shale confining units and thus has high potential for storage of CO 2 captured from nearby point sources. The predictability of the continuity of the reservoir and confining units can be improved by applying principles of sequence stratigraphy, including integration of lithostratigraphy, biostratigraphy, paleoenvironmental proxies, and a novel application of fluvial aggradation cycles (FACs). We evaluate the storage and confinement potential for the Lower Cretaceous Waste Gate Formation and mid-Cretaceous Potomac Formation/Group in New Jersey and Maryland, which we divide into three major reservoirs (Waste Gate
