   abstract: "David Weary earned a BS degree in geology from George Mason Univ. in\
     \ 1982; MS in geology from Virginia Tech in 1988. Started at the USGS in 1988\
     \ as a PST for the Paleontology and Stratigraphy Branch, specializing in conodont\
     \ sample processing and biostratigraphy. In 1996 David joined the Eastern Earth\
     \ Surface Processes Team. Since 1998 David has worked as a geologic mapper,\
     \ specializing in geohydrologic framework studies in karstic rocks. Field areas\
     \ included: Ozarks of southern MO; Saipan, Northern Mariana Islands; and the\
     \ Shenandoah Valley area of VA and WV. David has also worked in the southern\
     \ Great Basin and the Black Hills. Since 2003 David has served as a research\
     \ geologist and Project Chief of the KARST Project out of the Eastern Geology\
     \ and Paleoclimate Science Center, Reston, VA. David also represented the USGS\
     \ on the Board of directors of the National Cave and Karst Research Institute\
     \ From 2009 to 2018.Professional Studies/ExperiencePhysical Science Technician:USGS\
     \ Paleontology & Stratigraphy Branch (1988 \u2013 1997). PST. Conodont biostratigraphic\
     \ and thermal alteration research. Worked for Anita Harris and John Repetski.Associate\
     \ Instructor:Paleontology and Geology, Northern Virginia Community College (1989\
     \ \u2013 1991).Project Geologist:Midcontinent Karst Systems and Geologic Mapping\
     \ (1997 - 2003) geologic mapping and hydrogeologic studies in the area of the\
     \ Ozark National Scenic Riverways park (NPS), Missouri. Developed early digital\
     \ mapping and GIS/GPS techniques.Task 1, Geologic mapping in VA and WV:Theprimary\
     \ goal is to produce 1:24,000 & 1:100,000 scale geologic maps of selected areas\
     \ in the Shenandoah Valley of VA and WV. Work in cooperation with the VA and\
     \ WV, USGS WSC\u2019s and with local and state governments to develop a better\
     \ understanding of the role of the bedrock geology in guiding groundwater flow\
     \ characteristics.Task 2, U.S. National Karst Map:Our goal is to produce a new,\
     \ GIS-based national karst map. This map will serve both as a small-scale graphic\
     \ representation of the extent of karstic rocks in the United States (National\
     \ Atlas) and as GIS data that will be linked to more detailed, site-specific\
     \ databases. This work involves interaction with state geological surveys, the\
     \ National Cave and Karst Research Institute (NCKRI), and karst experts from\
     \ academia and the National Speleological Society.Task 3, Geologic mapping in\
     \ the Ozarks of MO:geologic mapping in areas of Paleozoic carbonate and clastic\
     \ rocks and Mesoproterozoic volcanic rocks at scales of 1:24,000 and 1:100,000.\
     \ Investigation of geologic controls on groundwater flow, karstification, and\
     \ speleogenesis in the Ozark Aquifer. This work addresses two priority needs:\
     \  1) Developing a hydrogeologic framework for the St. Fraincois and Ozark aquifers\
     \ in southern MO and potential impacts on groundwater quality by proposed base-metal\
     \ mining in the Mark Twain National Fo"
