Groundwater Staining in Pennsylvanian Sandstone, West Virginia
Groundwater Staining in Pennsylvanian Sandstone, West VirginiaFractures in bedrock transmit groundwater, and geologic mapping is conducted to provide the geologic framework for groundwater resource studies. This photo shows iron-oxide staining (Leisegang banding) from past groundwater flow along fractures formed prior to the rock having been blasted open during road construction.

Sea-level rise effects vary in geomorphology and ecology
Sea-level rise effects vary in geomorphology and ecologyThe effects of sea-level rise will vary by differences in the geomorphology and ecology of the landscape. Images show marsh (top left) rocky coast (top right), barrier beach (bottom left), and coastal bluff (bottom right)

Defne is co-author with USGS' Neil Ganju of a 2017 study on how to estimate coastal salt marshes' potential longevity, based on their sediment budgets and the ratio of open water to vegetation.
