To maximize the information available to seismic engineers, broadband data recorded teleseismically are analyzed jointly with strong-motion data recorded in the near field. The time-domain analysis of teleseismic data yields the source mechanisms, depths, and complexities of rupture of each earthquake. Both earthquakes occurred as shallow thrusts with centroid depths (6 to 7 km) and shallowly dipping fault planes that correspond well with the aftershock distributions obtained from a local survey run by the Canadian Geological Survey. The shallow nodal plane for the October 5 earthquake dips 30° to the WSW, while the shallow nodal planes of the subevents for the December 23 earthquake dip an average of 23° to the WSW. The October 5 earthquake has an impulsive initial rupture, followed by a weak subevent of longer duration but smaller moment release. The December 23 earthquake exhibits more complexity, being comprised of three subevents of similar size. The subevent delays derived from the teleseismic analysis are used to help interpret arrivals in records of ground velocity recorded in the near field of the December 23 earthquake. The rupture geometries inferred from the joint near- and far-field analysis suggest that the rupture processes were unusually complicated and that the 2g peak that occurs late in one of the near-field records could be a localized phenomenon. Spectral analyses of the teleseismic P waves yield the following source parameters for the October 5 and December 23 earthquakes, respectively: the seismic moments are 1.2 and 1.8 × 1026 dyne-cm, the radiated energies are 1.8 and 2.8 × 1021 dyne-cm, and the dynamic stress drops are 65 and 50 bar. The acceleration source spectra of both earthquakes exhibit an intermediate slope (| üα(ω) | ∝ω) from 0.03 to 0.3 Hz, suggesting that the earthquakes represent the failure of asperities. Extrapolating the teleseismic P-wave spectra to estimate the near-field S-wave spectra yields good fits to the acceleration spectra from two strong motion records, but underestimates the spectra from a third strong motion record with the strongest, but possibly localized, accelerations.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Seismological Society of America","doi":"10.1785/BSSA0780051627","usgsCitation":"Choy, G.L., and Boatwright, J., 1988, Teleseismic and near-field analysis of the Nahanni earthquakes in the Northwest Territories, Canada: Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America, v. 78, no. 5, p. 1627-1652, https://doi.org/10.1785/BSSA0780051627.","productDescription":"26 p.","startPage":"1627","endPage":"1652","numberOfPages":"26","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":422214,"rank":2,"type":{"id":15,"text":"Index Page"},"url":"https://pubs.geoscienceworld.org/ssa/bssa/article/78/5/1627/119076/Teleseismic-and-near-field-analysis-of-the-Nahanni"},{"id":226023,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"Canada","volume":"78","issue":"5","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505ba4a3e4b08c986b32049d","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Choy, G.

Differences in hydrothermal features associated with each intrusion (e.g., mass of ore, orientation and type of veins, density of veins, and intensity of alteration) correlate with differences in primary igneous features (e.g., composition, texture, morphology, and size). The systematic relations between hydrothermal and magmatic features suggest that primary magma compositions, including volatile contents, largely control the geometry, volume, level of emplacement, and mechanisms of crystallization of stocks. These elements in turn govern the orientations and densities of fractures, which ultimately determine the distribution patterns of hydrothermal alteration and mineralization.Based on primary igneous features, intrusions are grouped into four types, 1 to 4. The first three types define a potassic series of compositions (normarive orthoclase/albite greater than 1) and form a continuum from texturally and compositionally simple intrusions (type 1) to complex intrusions (type 3). Intensity and volume of high-temperature alteration and mineralization associated with a given stock increase from type 1 (2% of total ore) to type 3 (77% of total ore). Complex and strongly mineralizing intrusions (type 3) are separated from one another in time by relatively simple and weakly mineralizing intrusions (type 1). Stocks of type 4, the youngest intrusions, define a sodic series of compositions (normative orthoclase/albite less than 1) and are associated with the waning stages of mineralization.A number of textural features indicate that highly mineralizing type 3 stocks contained high primary concentrations of volatile components, e.g., the presence of unidirectional solidification textures, aplitic rather than aphanitic groundmass, extreme local textural variability, low percentages of phenocrysts in apices, brecciation of apices, and low volumes of dikes. From apex to root zone, textural units within the Seriate stock (type 3), the most productive stock in the deposit, include: (1) a Brain Rock unit with abundant quartz + or - fluorite crenulate layers, (2) a Border unit of generally low but variable phenocryst content (0-25%), (3) a transition zone, 5 to 10 m wide, of unidirectional solidification textures, (4) an Intermediate unit of moderate phenocryst content (25%), (5) another transition zone, 5 to 10 m wide, of unidirectional solidification textures, (6) a Porphyry unit of high phenocryst contents (40%), and (7) a Granite Porphyry or Granite unit. Crystals in layers of unidirectional textures always project toward the interior of the stock and indicate progressive inward solidification of magma along the walls of a chamber. Variations in texture are accompanied by variations in primary composition: the apex of the Seriate stock (the region above the deepest transition zone of unidirectional textures) is enriched in K&nbsp;</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;O and SiO&nbsp;</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;and depleted in Na&nbsp;</span><sub>2</sub><span>&nbsp;O, F, Nb, and Y relative to deeper units.Mineralization in the deposit is controlled by moderately outward-dipping concentric veins of both replacement and open-space origin, and by steeply dipping radial veins of replacement origin. Both sets of veins were formed nearly simultaneously about a stock and are focused in a systematic manner on the apex. A classic stockwork of veins occurs only in regions where vein sets associated with spatially separated intrusions overlap. Fluids that filled outward-dipping concentric structures flowed downward and outward from a stock. Fluid pressures in excess of lithostatic pressures, generated during crystallization of magma, were required to open and fill concentric structures. As magma solidified progressively inward, the zone of fluid evolution also migrated downward and inward. With time, the volume of evolved fluids decreased: vein densities decrease from greater than 200/m in the Seriate Brain Rock unit to less than 0.1/m immediately below the last transition zone separating the Seriate Intermediate unit from Seriate Porphyry unit. Crosscutting relations between veins and high-level dikes associated with the Seriate stock establish that most of the ore related to the Seriate stock was deposited prior to solidification of its deepest transition zone of unidirectional solidification textures.The absence of high-temperature veins and associated hydrothermal alteration in deep cores of stocks, the distribution of ore about the high levels of stocks, the orientation of veins about the apex of stocks, and the crosscutting relations between veins and dikes of the same stock are suggestive of initially high concentrations of molybdenum and volatiles in the apex of a stock immediately prior to the onset of significant crystallization. Additional accumulation of ore components, if any, ceased after solidification of the apex. Assignment of molybdenum in the ore shell about the Seriate stock to the volume of solid occupied by the apex of the Seriate stock yields concentration levels in the apical magma of approximately 13,000 ppm Mo.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Society of Economic Geologists","doi":"10.2113/gsecongeo.83.2.266","issn":"03610128","usgsCitation":"Carten, R., Geraghty, E.P., and Walker, B., 1988, Cyclic development of igneous features and their relationship to high-temperature hydrothermal features in the Henderson porphyry molybdenum deposit, Colorado: Economic Geology, v. 83, no. 2, p. 266-296, https://doi.org/10.2113/gsecongeo.83.2.266.","productDescription":"31 p.","startPage":"266","endPage":"296","numberOfPages":"31","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":225702,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"83","issue":"2","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"1988-04-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059fd23e4b0c8380cd4e65e","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Carten, R.B.","contributorId":45770,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Carten","given":"R.B.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":368285,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Geraghty, E.

Two distinct types of albite gneisses are present. One is a trondhjemitic leucogneiss (LAG) consisting principally of albite (Ab95-Ab98) and quartz with minor magnetite and, locally, minor amounts of amphibole or acmiterich pyroxene. LAG probably originated by metamorphism of a rhyolitie or rhyodacitic ash-flow tuff with A-type geochemical affinities, following post-depositional analcitization in a saline or saline-alkaline environment. The other type is a mafic albite gneiss (MAG) containing albite and pyroxene along with 0-45 percent quartz, minor amphibole, and titanite. MAG locally displays pinstripe banding and contains albite (Ab98) megacrysts up to 5 cm across. Its precursor may have been a sediment composed of diagenetic analcite or albite, dolomite, and quartz. Both types of albite gneiss are interlayered with granitic gneisses (LMG) of variable composition derived from less altered tuffs. A potassium-rich (up to 9.7% K2O) microcline gneiss facies may have had a protolith rich in diagenetic K feldspar. We propose that the albite gneisses and associated granitic gneisses are the granulite-facies metamorphic equivalent of a bimodal, dominantly felsic, volcanic suite with minor intercalated sediments, probably including evaporites. The volcanics were erupted in an anorogenic setting, such as an incipient or failed intracontinental rift. Deposition took place in a closed-basin, playa lake environment, where diagenetic alteration resulted in redistribution of the alkalis and strong oxidation. ?? 1988 Springer-Verlag.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisherLocation":"Springer-Verlag","doi":"10.1007/BF00371938","issn":"00107999","usgsCitation":"Whitney, P., and Olmsted, J., 1988, Geochemistry and origin of albite gneisses, northeastern Adirondack Mountains, New York: Contributions to Mineralogy and Petrology, v. 99, no. 4, p. 476-484, https://doi.org/10.1007/BF00371938.","startPage":"476","endPage":"484","numberOfPages":"9","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":204991,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF00371938"},{"id":219935,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"99","issue":"4","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a16d9e4b0c8380cd552a6","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Whitney, P.R.","contributorId":46671,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Whitney","given":"P.R.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":366700,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Olmsted, J.F.","contributorId":42704,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Olmsted","given":"J.F.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":366699,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2}]}}

(1981). Nine basalt flows, eight with normal polarity and one with reversed polarity, were recognized in the site E core hole. The flows above and below the reversed flow have ages of 491±80 ka and 580±93 ka, respectively. The inclination of the paleomagnetic field direction of the reversed flow at site E agrees with the inclination of reversed flows elsewhere at INEL which have an age of 565±14 ka. These reversed flows were previously thought to be correlative with the Emperor event. We suggest that this polarity event is an older event which we name the Big Lost Reversed Polarity Subchronozone and Subchron. A review of data documenting short reversal records from volcanic and sedimentary rocks shows that there is evidence for eight polarity subchrons in the Brunhes and two besides the Jaramillo in the late Matuyama. These 10 short subchrons begin to indicate the many short events that Cox (1968) hypothesized must exist if polarity interval lengths have a Poisson distribution. These events are true subchrons, not excursions, and may or may not have low associated paleointensities, although low field strengths might explain why the reversal process aborts.

Tectonic control of vent alignments and the dominance of mafic eruptions both in number of events and volume throughout the history of the volcano indicate that no large silicic magma reservoir exists.

The method is designed specifically to account for sampling procedures and uncertainties that are inherent in soil studies. Soil variation and measurement error, uncertainties in calibration dates and their relation to the age of the soil, and the limited number of dated soils are all considered. Maximum likelihood (ML) is employed to estimate a parametric linear calibration curve, relating soil development to time or age on suitably transformed scales. Soil variation on a geomorphic surface of a certain age is characterized by replicate sampling of soils on each surface; such variation is assumed to have a Gaussian distribution. The age of a geomorphic surface is described by older and younger bounds. This technique allows age uncertainty to be characterized by either a Gaussian distribution or by a triangular distribution using minimum, best-estimate, and maximum ages. The calibration curve is taken to be linear after suitable (in certain cases logarithmic) transformations, if required, of the soil parameter and age variables. Soil variability, measurement error, and departures from linearity are described in a combined fashion using Gaussian distributions with variances particular to each sampled geomorphic surface and the number of sample replicates. Uncertainty in age of a geomorphic surface used for calibration is described using three parameters by one of two methods. In the first method, upper and lower ages are specified together with a coverage probability; this specification is converted to a Gaussian distribution with the appropriate mean and variance. In the second method, \"absolute\" older and younger ages are specified together with a most probable age; this specification is converted to an asymmetric triangular distribution with mode at the most probable age. The statistical variability of the ML-estimated calibration curve is assessed by a Monte Carlo method in which simulated data sets repeatedly are drawn from the distributional specification; calibration parameters are reestimated for each such simulation in order to assess their statistical variability. Several examples are used for illustration. The age of undated soils in a related setting may be estimated from the soil data using the fitted calibration curve. A second simulation to assess age estimate variability is described and applied to the examples. ?? 1988 International Association for Mathematical Geology.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Mathematical Geology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisherLocation":"Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers","doi":"10.1007/BF00903188","issn":"08828121","usgsCitation":"Switzer, P., Harden, J., and Mark, R.K., 1988, A statistical method for estimating rates of soil development and ages of geologic deposits: A design for soil-chronosequence studies: Mathematical Geology, v. 20, no. 1, p. 49-61, https://doi.org/10.1007/BF00903188.","startPage":"49","endPage":"61","numberOfPages":"13","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":226041,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"},{"id":205676,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF00903188"}],"volume":"20","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059e5afe4b0c8380cd46f01","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Switzer, P.","contributorId":66432,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Switzer","given":"P.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":369154,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Harden, J.W. 0000-0002-6570-8259","orcid":"https://orcid.org/0000-0002-6570-8259","contributorId":38585,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Harden","given":"J.W.","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":369153,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":2},{"text":"Mark, R.

The evidence is that (1) extant kelps occur exclusively in cold-water habitats; (2) all but one of 27 kelp genera occur in the North Pacific, 19 of these exclusively; and (3) limpets and herbivorous marine mammals obligately associated with kelps or other stipitate brown algae appeared late in the Cenozoic, even though more generalized forms of both groups are much older. We propose, further, that sea otters and perhaps other groups of benthic-feeding predatory mammals, whose late Cenozoic distributions all were limited to the North Pacific, created an environment for the evolution of kelps in which the intensity of herbivory was unusually low. We hypothesize that this interaction created predictable differences among habitats in the intensity of herbivory on several spatial scales, with resulting trade-offs between anti-herbivore defenses and plant competitive abilities in their respective floras. Sea otters incur time and energy costs for diving, resulting in depth-related reductions to foraging efficiency and thus increased sizes and densities of herbivorous sea urchins. Thus, the deep-water flora is well defended, but competitively subordinate, compared with the shallow-water flora. Similarly, we argue that during the same period of earth history, predation had less of a limiting influence on herbivorous invertebrates in the temperate southwestern Pacific. We hypothesize that (1) consequent biogeographical differences in the intensity of herbivory may have selected the phenolic-rich brown algal flora in temperate Australia/New Zealand; and (2) tightly coevolved plant/herbivore interactions may explain why Australian and New Zealand herbivores are undeterred by phenolics and why other classes of secondary compounds in the Australian/New Zealand flora significantly deter herbivores.<br data-mce-bogus=\"1\"></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Cambridge University Press","doi":"10.1017/S0094837300011775","usgsCitation":"Estes, J.A., and Steinberg, P., 1988, Predation, herbivory and kelp evolution: Paleobiology, v. 14, p. 19-36, https://doi.org/10.1017/S0094837300011775.","productDescription":"18 p.","startPage":"19","endPage":"36","numberOfPages":"18","costCenters":[{"id":651,"text":"Western Ecological Research Center","active":true,"usgs":true}],"links":[{"id":130577,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"14","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"2016-04-08","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"4f4e4b08e4b07f02db69ba61","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Estes, J.

One of these occurred on 9 May 1986 and produced a fan-shaped avalanche deposit of juvenile dacite debris together with a more extensive pyroclastic-flow deposit. Laterally thinning deposits and abrasion and baking of wooden and plastic objects show that a hot ash-cloud surge swept beyond the limits of the pyroclastic flow. Plumes that rose 2-3 km above the dome and vitric ash that fell downwind of the volcano were also effects of this event, but no explosion occurred. All the facies observed originated from a single avalanche. Erosion and melting of craterfloor snow by the hot debris caused debris flows in the crater, and a small flood that carried juvenile and other clasts north of the crater. A second, broadly similar event occurred in October 1986. Larger events of this nature could present a significant volcanic hazard. ?? 1988 Springer-Verlag.</p>","language":"English","publisher":"Springer-Verlag","doi":"10.1007/BF01047505","issn":"02588900","usgsCitation":"Mellors, R., Waitt, R., and Swanson, D.A., 1988, Generation of pyroclastic flows and surges by hot-rock avalanches from the dome of Mount St. Helens volcano, USA: Bulletin of Volcanology, v. 50, no. 1, p. 14-25, https://doi.org/10.1007/BF01047505.","productDescription":"12 p.","startPage":"14","endPage":"25","numberOfPages":"12","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":220494,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"50","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a1555e4b0c8380cd54d74","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Mellors, R.A.","contributorId":36679,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Mellors","given":"R.A.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":366543,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Waitt, R.

Studies and analyses of several variants of the STI schemes have led to the derivation of a new scheme, referred to herein as the multimode scheme, which combines implicit, temporal reachback, spatial reachback, and classical schemes into one. Three numerical models have been developed to implement the implicit and multimode schemes. The IMOCDS model uses an implicit scheme, with which the time step is no longer subject to the Courant constraint. The remaining two models, NEWMOC and SPRMOC, are two versions of the multimode scheme. The NEWMOC and SPRMOC models demonstrate all the advantages previously provided by individual STI schemes, cover the combined flow range of the various schemes involved, and, in addition, display newly acquired benefits such as robustness. Numerical analyses, numerical experiments, and field applications that verify, support, and demonstrate the enhanced model capabilities are presented.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"ASCE","doi":"10.1061/(ASCE)0733-9429(1988)114:9(1074)","issn":"07339429","usgsCitation":"Lai, C., 1988, Comprehensive method of characteristics models for flow simulation: Journal of Hydraulic Engineering, v. 114, no. 9, p. 1074-1097, https://doi.org/10.1061/(ASCE)0733-9429(1988)114:9(1074).","productDescription":"24 p.","startPage":"1074","endPage":"1097","numberOfPages":"24","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":220551,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"114","issue":"9","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"5059f2dce4b0c8380cd4b435","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Lai, Chintu","contributorId":16860,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Lai","given":"Chintu","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":366552,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1}]}}

Considering the number of multichannel structural stations in the area of strong shaking, this set of records is one of the more significant in history. Three networks, operated by the U.S. Geological Survey, the California Division of Mines and Geology, and the University of Southern California produced the majority of the records. The excellent performance of the instruments in these and the smaller arrays is attributable to the quality of the maintenance programs and their funding and personnel requirements. Readiness for a magnitude 8 event is directly related to these maintenance programs. Prior to computer analysis of the analog film records, a number of important structural resonant modes can be identified, and frequencies and simple mode shapes have been scaled. The structural records form a basic performance measurement for comparison with larger earthquake response in the future.</span></p>","language":"English","publisher":"Earthquake Engineering Research Institute","doi":"10.1193/1.1585465","usgsCitation":"Brady, A., Etheredge, E.C., and Porcella, R.L., 1988, The Whittier Narrows, California earthquake of October 1, 1987: Preliminary assessment of strong ground motion records: Earthquake Spectra, v. 4, no. 1, p. 55-74, https://doi.org/10.1193/1.1585465.","productDescription":"20 p.","startPage":"55","endPage":"74","numberOfPages":"20","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":220214,"rank":1,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"country":"United States","state":"California","otherGeospatial":"Los Angeles basin","geographicExtents":"{\n  \"type\": \"FeatureCollection\",\n  \"features\": [\n    {\n      \"type\": \"Feature\",\n      \"properties\": {},\n      \"geometry\": {\n        \"coordinates\": [\n          [\n            [\n              -118.66776592366908,\n              34.37671218769654\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.66776592366908,\n              33.71018161678026\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.8213434794263,\n              33.71018161678026\n            ],\n            [\n              -117.8213434794263,\n              34.37671218769654\n            ],\n            [\n              -118.66776592366908,\n              34.37671218769654\n            ]\n          ]\n        ],\n        \"type\": \"Polygon\"\n      }\n    }\n  ]\n}","volume":"4","issue":"1","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationDate":"1988-02-01","publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505bc3a8e4b08c986b32b2dd","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Brady, A.

A common element in many of these observed patterns appears to be the transmission and amplification of tectonic stress changes by the mechanism of fault creep, and suggests that surface fault creep is a sensitive indicator of changes in stress.

However, empirical evidence strongly suggests that larger fields tend to be discovered earlier in the discovery process than they would be by random sampling. Economic factors also can limit the number of small fields that are developed and reported. This paper examines observed size distributions in state and federal waters of offshore Texas. Results of the analysis demonstrate how the shape of the observable size distributions change with significant hydrocarbon price changes. Comparison of state and federal observed size distributions in the offshore area shows how production cost differences also affect the shape of the observed size distribution. Methods for modifying the discovery rate estimation procedures when economic factors significantly affect the discovery sequence are presented. A primary conclusion of the analysis is that, because hydrocarbon price changes can significantly affect the observed discovery size distribution, one should not be confident about inferring the form and specific parameters of the parent field size distribution from the observed distributions. ?? 1988 International Association for Mathematical Geology.","largerWorkType":{"id":2,"text":"Article"},"largerWorkTitle":"Mathematical Geology","largerWorkSubtype":{"id":10,"text":"Journal Article"},"language":"English","publisherLocation":"Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers","doi":"10.1007/BF00892971","issn":"08828121","usgsCitation":"Drew, L., Attanasi, E.D., and Schuenemeyer, J., 1988, Observed oil and gas field size distributions: A consequence of the discovery process and prices of oil and gas: Mathematical Geology, v. 20, no. 8, p. 939-953, https://doi.org/10.1007/BF00892971.","startPage":"939","endPage":"953","numberOfPages":"15","costCenters":[],"links":[{"id":205672,"rank":9999,"type":{"id":10,"text":"Digital Object Identifier"},"url":"https://dx.doi.org/10.1007/BF00892971"},{"id":226017,"rank":0,"type":{"id":24,"text":"Thumbnail"},"url":"https://pubs.usgs.gov/thumbnails/outside_thumb.jpg"}],"volume":"20","issue":"8","noUsgsAuthors":false,"publicationStatus":"PW","scienceBaseUri":"505a6af1e4b0c8380cd74424","contributors":{"authors":[{"text":"Drew, L.J.","contributorId":69157,"corporation":false,"usgs":true,"family":"Drew","given":"L.J.","email":"","affiliations":[],"preferred":false,"id":368192,"contributorType":{"id":1,"text":"Authors"},"rank":1},{"text":"Attanasi, E.
