Remote detection of geochemical soil anomalies
Frank Cogswell Canney
1970, Open-File Report 70-54
This paper describes a preliminary experiment that was made to compare the spectral reflectance from trees growing in soil over a mineral deposit with reflectance from trees of the same species growing in a nearby unmineralized area. Although the measurements were made on a relatively small number of trees, some...
Study and interpretation of the chemical characteristics of natural water
John David Hem
1970, Water Supply Paper 1473
The chemical composition of natural water is derived from many different sources of solutes, including gases and aerosols from the atmosphere, weathering and erosion of rocks and soil, solution or precipitation reactions occurring below the land surface, and cultural effects resulting from activities of man. Some of the processes of...
A proposed streamflow data program for Michigan
P.C. Bent
1970, Open-File Report 70-25
An evaluation of the streamflow data available in Michigan was made to provide guidelines for planning future water resource programs. The basic steps in the evaluation procedure were (1) definition of the long-term goals of the streamflow data program in quantitative form, (2) examination and analysis of all available data...
Effects of the earthquake of March 27, 1964, on the Alaska Railroad
David S. McCulloch, Manuel G. Bonilla
1970, Professional Paper 545-D
In the 1964 Alaska earthquake, the federally owned Alaska Railroad sustained damage of more than $35 million: 54 percent of the cost for port facilities; 25 percent, roadbed and track; 9 percent, buildings and utilities; 7 percent, bridges and culverts; and 5 percent, landslide removal. Principal causes of damage were:...
Flood profile study, Morgan Creek, Linn County, Iowa
Harlan H. Schwob
1970, Open-File Report 70-295
The purpose of this report is to present the results of a study made for a 35,000-foot reach of Morgan Creek. The report shows profiles computed for a large flood under existing conditions and for a smaller flood for two assumed conditions of encroachment. Flood-plain management can benefit from this...
Water as an urban resource and nuisance
H. E. Thomas, William Joseph Schneider
1970, Circular 601-D
Generally, when people speak of water as a resource, they are considering its good aspects and recognizing that it is essential for life and living. Sometimes or at some places or to some people, the same water may be annoying or unpleasant and thus a nuisance-for example, rain at a...
Chemical quality of Michigan streams
Warren W. Wood
1970, Circular 634
Concentrations of chemical constituents of Michigan streams exhibit regional patterns that are primarily a function of geology and evapotranspiration. However, in some areas waste disposal by municipal and industrial organizations has altered the natural distribution and concentrations of dissolved material. Concentration and areal distribution of chemical constitutents were found to...
