The third U.S. Geological Survey geo-environmental cruise in lower Cook Inlet and on the Kodiak shelf and adjacent continental slope, Gulf of Alaska, was conducted aboard the R/V SEA SOUNDER from 2 August to 22 August, 1978 (Fig. 1, 2, and 3). The objectives of the cruise were to study in detail specific potentially hazardous environmental conditions identified as a result of the first reconnaissance cruise conducted in June and July of 1976 and from work by other investigators, and to initiate reconnaissance characterization studies on the continental slope. High-resolution seismic reflection profiling (sparker, Uniboam: 3.5 kHz, 12 kHz) and side-scanning sonar surveys formed the basis for selecting stations for observation with bottom television and 70 mm bottom camera as well as for sampling of surficial sediments (gravity corer, grab sampler),
Generalized trackline charts are given in Figures 2 and 3. Detailed shot-point charts could not be constructed clearly, because of the overlap and coincidence of many of the lines. Station locations are shown in Figure 4 and 5, and sampling information is given in Table 4. Table 5 contains the navigation records from the cruise.
The results of our investigations to date can be found in the references listed at the end of this text, Background information in lower Cook Inlet with several references is given in Open-File Report 75-429 (Magoon and others, 1975), and on the Kodiak shelf in Open-File Report 76-325 (von Huene and others, 1976).
In addition, this report accompanies the basic seismic-reflection and side-scanning sonar records acquired on the cruise. The seismic-reflection records are publicly available from the National Geophysical and Solar Terrestrial Data Center EDS/NOAA, Boulder, Colorado 80302. These records can be inspected at U.S. Geological Survey offices at Rm B-164, Deer Creek Facility, 3475 Deer Creek Road, Palo Alto, California 94303.

The earliest finds were made about 125 years ago; essentially no new information has been recorded for a century. \r\n\r\nLarge collections of Anthracopupa from the Dunkard basin sparked inquiry into the land snails from the other two areas. Studies using the SEM (scanning electron microscope) have provided considerable insight into microdetails of shell structure, which allow systematic assignment of these gastropods. All may be assigned to extant families, except one, for which insufficient material allows only superfamily assignment. \r\n\r\nThe prosobranch Dawsonella is confirmed as being a terrestrial neritacean gastropod. To date, it is known only from the upper Middle Pennsylvanian of Illinois and Indiana. All the other Paleozoic land snails are stylommatophoran pulmonates; their current classification as nonmarine cyclophoraceans is not correct. \r\n\r\nRestudy of material from the Joggins section of Nova Scotia indicates that representatives of two ordinal groups of pulmonates appeared simultaneously in upper Lower Pennsylvanian strata; the oldest land prosobranch is found in only very slightly younger rocks. Zonites (Conulus) priscus is reassigned to the new genus Protodiscus in the extant family Discidae. Dendropupa is placed within the family Enidae, Anthraaopupa is placed in the family Tornatellinidae, and 'Pupa' bigsbii is assigned to the superfamily Pupillacea. All four of these family-level taxa are diverse and belong to two orders within the superorder Stylommatophora, heretofore considered a derived rather than an ancestral stock. \r\n\r\nAnthracopupa ohioensis Whitfield is a highly variable species, and two other species Naticopsis (?) diminuta and A.(?) dunkardona, both named by Stauffer and Schroyer, are placed in synonymy with it. To obtain taxonomic data to support the family placement of Anthracopupa, growth forms of modern pupillid and tornatellinid snails have been distinguished. The apertural barriers in Anthracopupa are identical in placement and growth pattern with those of living Tornatellinidae and independently confirm the family placement derived from study of the general form. One new species, A. sturgeoni, has been named. \r\n\r\nAnthracopupa is found most commonly in thin limestones interpreted as having been deposited in pools into which the small shells floated. Dendropupa is most commonly found in erect tree stumps that were covered by rapid sedimentation. Both environments are similar to those in which the shells of allied living species may be found today, and the fossils support environmental interpretations made entirely from lithology. \r\n\r\nA survey of the few European occurrences of Paleozoic land snails indicates that both Anthracopupa and Dendropupa occur in Lower Permian strata; Anthracopupa is known from beds as old as Westphalian B. These genera cannot be used for determining the Carboniferous-Permian boundary. Both the long local stratigraphic range of A. brittanica and D. vetusta reported in the literature and the moderately long range and great variability of A. ohioensis suggest that the land snails have little stratigraphic utility. \r\n\r\nOn the other hand, the occurrence of these land snails in the late Paleozoic of the Northern Hemisphere provides further fossil evidence suggestive of a closed Atlantic Ocean at that time. A comparison of the Paleozoic and the present distributions of land -snail families on both sides of the Atlantic provides some interesting data on geographic shifts of organisms. Finally, the assignment of the earliest land snails to extant taxa at the family level indicates that the subclass Pulmonata has been very conservative in its evolution after initial radiation. \r\n\r\nA few notes on Paleozoic freshwater snails complete this survey.","language":"English","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey","doi":"10.3133/pp1072","usgsCitation":"Solem, A., and Yochelson, E.L., 1979, North American Paleozoic land snails, with a summary of other Paleozoic nonmarine snails: U.S. Geological Survey Professional Paper 1072, 42 p., https://doi.org/10.3133/pp1072.","productDescription":"42 p.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":33840,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1072/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}},{"id":125082,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/pp/1072/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":395507,"rank":3,"type":{"id":36,"text":"NGMDB Index Page"},"url":"https://ngmdb.usgs.gov/Prodesc/proddesc_93001.htm"}],"country":"United States","geographicExtents":"{\n \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n \"features\": [\n {\n \"type\": \"Feature\",\n \"properties\": {},\n \"geometry\": {\n \"type\": \"Polygon\",\n \"coordinates\": [\n [\n [\n -87.71484375,\n 41.04621681452063\n ],\n [\n -67.1484375,\n 41.04621681452063\n ],\n [\n -67.1484375,\n 45.706179285330855\n ],\n [\n -87.71484375,\n 45.706179285330855\n ],\n [\n -87.71484375,\n 41.04621681452063\n ]\n ]\n ]\n }\n }\n ]\n}","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4afde4b07f02db696e90","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Solem, Alan","contributorId":38985,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Solem","given":"Alan","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":152709,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Yochelson, Ellis Leon","contributorId":66678,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Yochelson","given":"Ellis","email":"","middleInitial":"Leon","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":152710,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}} ,{"id":8910,"text":"ofr791277 - 1979 - Water-quality data for the Hanna and Carbon basins, Wyoming","interactions":[],"lastModifiedDate":"2017-09-20T16:52:27","indexId":"ofr791277","displayToPublicDate":"1994-01-01T00:00:00","publicationYear":"1979","noYear":false,"publicationType":{"id":18,"text":"Report"},"publicationSubtype":{"id":5,"text":"USGS Numbered Series"},"seriesTitle":{"id":330,"text":"Open-File Report","code":"OFR","onlineIssn":"2331-1258","printIssn":"0196-1497","active":true,"publicationSubtype":{"id":5}},"seriesNumber":"79-1277","title":"Water-quality data for the Hanna and Carbon basins, Wyoming","docAbstract":"Water-quality data for the Hanna and Carbon Basins, south-central Wyoming, are presented in tables with no interpretation.

Although many size analyses of the same formations have been reported in the literature, the methods of sample collection, preparation, and sieving were not uniform, and the results of the different studies therefore are not comparable. This investigation is intended to supply a uniform data base that will be useful for a variety of practical and scientific purposes. A total of 276 samples was collected from the St. Peter Sandstone and Everton, Oil Creek, McLish, and Tulip Creek Formations at the 29 locations shown on figure 1. At each location 4-14 samples were taken at about equal intervals from the base to the top of the sandstone exposure. Each sample of about 500 gm was obtained from a strati-graphic interval of no more than 10 cm. Each sample was air dried, and lumps were broken with a rubber pestle (some samples were case-hardened but none was firmly cemented). A representative fraction of 50 to 120 gm was separated by use of a sample splitter. This fraction was then weighed to the nearest .1 gm and agitated for 30 seconds in water in a kitchen blender. The process efficiently broke apart the remaining small lumps and freed the sand surfaces of clay and almost all of the iron oxide. The sample was then washed on a sieve having openings of .06 mm in order to remove clay and silt-size particles. The remaining sample, composed of clean loose sand, was then oven-dried. Each sample of dry sand was sieved for 10 minutes in a stack of 12 or more sieves on a mechanical shaker, and the size fractions were weighed to the nearest .1 gm. The weight of the discarded silt and clay fraction was determined by subtracting the weight of the sand from the weight of the unwashed sample.
In the following tables, the figures at the left are diameters of sieve openings; samples, numbered on the top line, run from base of section (or exposure) to the top of the formation; figures in the body of the tables are grams of samples retained on the indicated sieves; bars in place of figures indicate unused sieves.

Loss of iron and impregnation of sandstone by carbonate cements and replacement of gypsum by calcite are the major alteration phenomena at Cement. The bedrock alterations are partially masked by unaltered overlying beds, thick soils, and dense natural and cultivated vegetation. Interpreters biased by detailed ground truth were able to map the alteration zone subjectively using a magnified, filtered, and sinusoidally stretched LANDSAT composite image; other interpreters, unbiased by ground truth data, could not duplicate that interpretation. \r\n\r\nSimilar techniques were applied at a secondary test site (Garza oil field, Texas), where similar alterations in surface rocks occur.

Certain, mainly statistical, reports such as the annual Minerals Yearbook of the U.S. Bureau of Mines and the biennial and annual reports of the Alaska Division of Geological and Geophysical Surveys and its predecessor agencies are not included. Also not included are data on many prospects and claims about which little more than their locations is known (for example, many of those in Condon, 1965 (1-453) and some in MacKevett and Holloway, 1977 (OF-77-169A), p. 15). These omissions should not be interpreted as a judgement on my part that the prospects and claims are not valid mineral occurrences, but only that there are insufficient data to describe any mineral deposits that might be present.
This report is divided into three parts: a section made up of summaries of references arranged alphabetically by occurrence name; a section that lists synonyms for names in the first section, claim names, and the names of operators and owners of mines and prospects; and a section that lists, by author, all references in the first section and in these introductory paragraphs.

The approach involves the development of an erosional-depositional province map and a numerical impact matrix for rating the potential for erosional problems. The province map is prepared by collating data on the natural terrain factors that exert the dominant controls on erosion and deposition in each basin. In addition, existing erosional and depositional features are identified and mapped from color-infrared, high-altitude aerial imagery. The axes of the impact matrix are composed of weighting values for the terrain factors used in developing the map and by a second set of values for the prevalent land-use activities. The body of the matrix is composed of composite erosional-impact ratings resulting from the product of the factor sets. Together the province map and problem matrix serve as practical tools for estimating the erosional impact of human activities on different types of terrain.

This energy reverberates between the surface of the water and the seafloor (or other strong reflectors), and makes portions of the seismic data completely useless. Several different data-processing techniques can be applied to partially suppress these multiples and enhance the interpretability of the data. These techniques include (1) the three-point operator, (2) predictive deconvolution, (3) near-trace muting, (4) spatially variant bandpass filters, (5) Nth root stack, and (6) trace distance weighting. Application of these methods to several seismic lines indicates that trace distance weighting is the most useful method studied for suppressing deep-water-bottom multiples for data from the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf.","language":"ENGLISH","publisher":"U.S. Geological Survey,","doi":"10.3133/ofr791572","usgsCitation":"Peterson, S.D., Balch, A.H., Patterson, W., and Taylor, D.J., 1979, Examples of deep-water-bottom multiple dereverberation techniques applied to seismic-reflection data from the Atlantic Outer Continental Shelf: U.S. Geological Survey Open-File Report 79-1572, iii, 42 p. :ill. ;27 cm., https://doi.org/10.3133/ofr791572.","productDescription":"iii, 42 p. :ill. ;27 cm.","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":139982,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1979/1572/report-thumb.jpg"},{"id":34442,"rank":300,"type":{"id":11,"text":"Document"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/of/1979/1572/report.pdf","linkFileType":{"id":1,"text":"pdf"}}],"noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4a07e4b07f02db5f9490","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Peterson, Steven D.","contributorId":90717,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Peterson","given":"Steven","email":"","middleInitial":"D.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":154400,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Balch, A.

Estimates were made of both instantaneous and average natural temperatures in the river during an 8-day period in August 1976. Differences between the computed average natural temperature and an independent estimate of natural temperature based on observed equilibrium temperatures were less than 0.5°C. Downstream of the powerplants, the combined thermal effects of flow regulation and powerplant effluents resulted in mean daily river temperatures about equal to or less than computed mean natural temperatures. Thus the thermal impact of heated effluents was offset by the cooling effects of structural regulation. An independent analysis of historical river- and air-temperature data, although considerably less accurate than model computations, provided substantially the same result. The range and rates of change of computed natural diurnal temperature fluctuations were considerably less than those in the river at the time of this study in 1976. The models also were used to simulate summer river temperatures using estimated year 2000 flow conditions and meteorologic data collected during 1976. Except during periods of peak water-supply demand, differences between computed year 2000 river temperatures and observed 1976 temperatures were less than 2°C.

The profiles are located on the slope and rise between Cape Hatteras and the New England Seamounts and include 10 profiles which are roughly perpendicular to the continental margin and 4 long profiles which are parallel to the margin. Single channel seismic reflection profiles are available on all of the profiles indicated on the accompanying figure with the exception of FAY 21-5 and FAY 21-10. Approximately 5,850 km of seismic reflection data were collected. These profiles complement and extend to the northeast the grid of seismic profiles collected on the cruise FAY 19 (open file report#?). The seismic profiles collected on cruises FAY 19, FAY 20 and FAY 21 tie in the U.S. Geological Survey grid of multichannel seismic reflection profiles and the IPOD/USGS multichannel profile on the continental shelf, slope and upper rise with the DSDP holes #105, 106 and 388.
