Magnitude and intensity: Measures of earthquake size and severity
Henry Spall, editor(s)
1982, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (14) 209-219
Earthquakes can be measured in terms of either the amount of energy they release (magnitude) or the degree of ground shaking they cause at a particular locality (intensity). Although magnitude and intensity are basically different measures of an earthquake, they are frequently confused by the public and new reports of...

Enrichment and association of lead and bacteria at particulate surfaces in a salt-marsh surface layer
R.W. Harvey, Leonard W. Lion, L.Y. Young, J.O. Leckie
1982, Journal of Marine Research (40) 1201-1211
The particle-laden surface layer (approx 150-370 mu m) and subsurface waters of a South San Francisco Bay salt marsh were sampled over 2 tidal cycles and analyzed for particle numbers and particulate-associated and total concentrations of Pb and bacteria. Laboratory studies examined the ability of a bacterial isolate from the...
