LAND-SURFACE SUBSIDENCE IN THE HOUSTON-

GALVESTON REGION, TEXAS

By Robert K. GabryschUnited States Geological Survey

In the Houston-Galveston region 0 fTexas, the principal cause of land- surfacesubsidence is the lowering of pressure headsdue to the rem 0 val of water and oil from

subsurface strata. This paper emphasizesthe effects of removal of water.

The region is underlain by a thicksection of unconsolidated lenticular depositsof sand and clay. Clays separating beds 0 fsand retard the vertical movement of water,thus creating artesian conditions within the

aquifers. Reduction 0 f pressure caused bywithdrawal of water causes additional loadto be transferred to the skeleton of the

aquifer, thus causing compaction.

Subsidence of as mu c h as 5 feet has

. occurred in the Houston-Gal veston regionbetween 1943 and 1964, and a~ much as 200

feetof waterlevel decline has occurred during the same period. The rate of subsidenceincreased from about 0.2 foot per year during the 1954-59 period to about 0.24 footper year during the 1959-64 period. The decline in water levels increased from about4 feet per year to about 7 feet per year in those same two periods.

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH - Robert K. Gabrysch

Robert Gabrysch was born in Falls City, Karnes County, Texas. He attendedprimary and secondary school s in Fall sCity and Karnes City. He attended the Universityof Texas where he obtained a Bachelor of Science Degree in Civil Engineering in 1956.Immediately after graduation, he began working for the Ground Water Branch of the U.S. Geological Survey. Except for two years military service, he hasworked for the U.S. Geological Survey since 1956. All work for the Survey has been in water resourcesinvestigation and all in Texas. He has spent 14 years studying the water resources ofthe Gul f Coast Region and has been in Houston 11 years. Bob was transferred to Houstonto anal yze available data and construct an analog model of the ground wa t e r system.He is the Assistant Chief of the Houston office of the Geological Survey and directs allground-water programs in the area. He has written several reports on ground water inthe coastal region which have been published by the Texas Water Development Board.He has also prepared several papers on ground water hydraul iC5 and I and surface sub-sidence. He is currently working on a study of subsidence in the Baytown area.

PRESIDENT'S CORNER

On November 10th we lost a good friend and an outstanding member of the geological fraternity, Edward H. "Rainey" Rainwater. He suffered a heart attack while in Corpus Christi on the morning of October 12th, the day he was scheduled to present his paper, "The Factors Which Control Petroleum Accumulations", to the GCAGS Conven- tion. No one was particularly concerned when he was absent from the speaker's break- fast that morning because Rainey was a "pro" at speaking and c o u I d have written the book of speaker's instructions. We heard later that morning that he was in the intensive care unit of Spohn Hospital, fighting against a heart attack, the effect of which finally defeated him.

Rainey could not help missing that speaking appointment, and i t brought to mind what probably was the only other s p e a k i n g date he ever missed. I met him coming from the boarding stationsat the Houston airport. Pea-soup fog had chokedoff al l flights for a numberof hours, and Rainey hadfinally given up on his flight. He dejectedly ex- plained that he was scheduled to speak to the Oklahoma City Geological Society that noon. With no sign of the fog l i f t ing there was "no way that I can make i t toOklahoma City on time now".

He didn't miss much of anything else however, and several yearsago he was award- ed Honorary Membership in this Society in recognition of his service to the Society and his accomplishments in his profession. In spite of his long service and contributions he was always willing to help. He was our first Continuing Education Program speaker and has presented many papers at various professional meetings including the AAPG Conven- tions. Nevertheless, he readily agreed to be substitute speakeron several occasions when i t looked as i f the scheduled speaker could not make i t here on time.

Rainey's willingness to help, his unexcelled competence and his friendliness wi l l be missed by us all. He has been a strong influence in the geological profession, and we are fortunate to have known him.

SHORT COURSE IN EXPLORATION GEOLOGY FOR GEOPHYSICISTS

The University of Houston Geology F o u n d a t i o n wi l l sponsor a short course in "Exploration Geology for Geophysicists" for January 8 through 19, 1973. The course i s directed particularly to geophysicists whose professional education was not geological, but wi l l be appropriate also for others educated in another sc i e n ce or i n engineering who feel the need for geological instruction oriented toward petroleum occurrence and exploration. The lecturersare recognized leaders in their areas of specialization who have demonstrated their effectiveness also as teachers, and in most cases have had ex- tensiveexperience in the petroleum industry. The course wi l l be held at the Royal Coach Motor Hotel along the Southwest Freeway next to the Sharpstown Shopping Center.

ACADEMIC LIAISON COMMITTEE NEEDS SPEAKERS

The Academic Liaison Committee needs at least 15 volunteers to speak to students studying earth science i n the Houston area schools. A recent request from the Houston Independent School District for g e o I o g i st s to talk to students i n grades 4 to 6 i n 37 elementary schools occasions this particular (and urgent) cal l for help.

Many elementary students show an interest in g e o l o g y i n the form of rock collections. Often schools display s uc h hobbies, and during these p e r i o d s many other p u p i l s become interested. Persons working i n the f ie ld can be extremely valuable at such times in showing how hobbies could lead to careers. Making the pupils aware o f the number and types of careers available in the f ield of geology (including the various amounts of training required) helps the child explore his interest and see himself i n re- lation to future work.

THE DISTAFF SIDE

The months of October and November have found most auxiliary members their husbands busy with football, both high school and college, and also hunting. Our president, Dixie Bartell and Denny made a "quickie1' trip to Norman to see their beloved Sooners play one week-end. Jean and Henry Dean to see their son play up at Sherman several week-endson his college team. Eddie and Dora Heider made their usual hunting tr ip to Montana.

The lure of the folige during those months found Betty and Curtis Franks in Gatt in- burg, Tennessee and Marge and B. Phillips went to New England. While i n Greenwick, Connecticut, they visited with former auxiliary member, Al ice Ritts and husband Chase in their unusual home made out of telephone poles.

A "Cool, Crisy" autumn e ve n i n g found many couples at the "Shrimp Shuck" on November 14th. The s h r i m p , potatoes and hush-puppies were done to p e r f e c t i o n . Enjoying the good food and the light and dark beer were Donna and Ross Dawson, Val and Royce Oualline, Teresa and A1 Tolbert, Grace and Doug Keenan, Jackie and Mac Newby, Ruth and Jim Grady, Hal and Sally Bybee, to name but a few. It was lots of fun.

Geo Wives had a couples party for Halloween and everybody had a ball. I t was held at the home of Bea and Ted Hole and everything was decorated appropriately for the occasion. They played games and enjoyed "witches brew" (beer) anda late buffet. The Holes were costumed as the Jol ly Green Giants. Ethel and Dan Nisley were Greek God and Goddess. Boo and Fred Marshall were Salt and Pepper, Morianne and J e r r y Box were Mr. and Mrs. Frankenstein. Others at the p a r t y were Terry and W i I I i a m Pooser, Margery and Jim Ambrose. Marylee and Russell Seward won the prize for being ghosts and sitting i n the grave-yard. No one could ever guess who they were. M a r y and Wiley Harle won for the most comical, Ma and Pa Kettle.

O n November 15th, the Geo W i v e s had their bridge-luncheon at Guidols and had a speaker, Dr. Morris Mills discuss the problems of aging. Lots of n e w members were present.

Be sure and keep in mind the Auxil iary Couples P a r t y on Friday, January 26th. The year-book lists i t as a Wednesday, so please take note. I t i s a Monte Carlo Party and promises to be much fun.

Have a Happy Thanksgiving and "see ya" next month.
