Quaternary climates and sea levels of the U.S. Atlantic Coastal Plain
T. M. Cronin, Barney J. Szabo, T. A. Ager, J. E. Hazel, J. P. Owens
1981, Science (211) 233-240
Uranium-series dating of corals from marine deposits of the U.S. Atlantic Coastal Plain coupled with paleoclimatic reconstructions based on ostracode (marine) and pollen (continent) data document at least five relatively warm intervals during the last 500,000 years. On the basis of multiple paleoenvironmental criteria, we determined relative...
Depletion sampling in stream ecosystems: assumptions and techniques
Robert F. Raleigh, Cathleen Short
1981, Progressive Fish-Culturist (43) 115-120
Reliable fish and invertebrate population estimates depend on meeting the assumptions of the methods used for organism capture and data analysis. A review of several population estimation studies has indicated that assumptions of the removal method for population estimation are often violated. This paper outlines (1) procedures to assist in...
IASPEI workshop: Seismic modeling of laterally varying structures
Walter D. Mooney
1981, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (62) 18-19
During the past 10 years, significant progress has been made in the methods of collection and analysis of seismic reflection and refraction data. This progress has led to the development of new models for the structure and composition of the earth's crust, based on sophisticated analysis of...
The geologic history of the Mid-Pacific Mountains in the central North Pacific Ocean; A synthesis of deep-sea drilling studies
Jorn Thiede, Walter E. Dean, David K. Rea, T.L. Vallier, Charles Adelseck
1981, Initial Reports of the D.S.D.P. (62) 1073-1120
The Mid-Pacific Mountains constitute one of the largest aseismic rises in the central North Pacific Ocean. They have been generated by mid-plate volcanic events prior to Barremian time, but their volcanic activity continued through the remainder of the Cretaceous. Evidence of the latest stages of this volcanism are the trachytic...
The geology of Hess Rise, central north Pacific Ocean
T. L. Vallier, David K. Rea, Walter E. Dean, Jorn Thiede, Charles Adelseck
1981, Initial Reports of the D.S.D.P. (62) 1031-1072
The geology of Hess Rise is interpreted from studies of morphology and structure, igneous petrology, sediment lithofacies, seismic stratigraphy, and paleoenvironments. Hess Rise probably formed at a triple junction, between 116 and 95 m.y. ago, in the equatorial zone of the southern hemisphere. A large archipelago, formed by volcanism, subsequently...
Multichannel seismic evidence bearing on the origin of Bowers Ridge, Bering Sea
Alan K. Cooper, Michael S. Marlow, Z. Ben-Avraham
1981, GSA Bulletin (92) 474-484
Bowers Ridge is a large, arcuate sub-marine ridge that extends north and west from the Aleutian Ridge and separates the abyssal Aleutian and Bowers Basins in the Bering Sea. Two multichannel seismic-reflection lines recorded in 1976 over Bowers Ridge and the adjacent basins confirm the existence of 8- to 10-km-thick...
Early evolution of the Bering Sea by collision of oceanic rises and North Pacific subduction zones
Z. Ben-Avraham, Alan K. Cooper
1981, GSA Bulletin (92) 485-495
Three major bathymetric features exist in the Bering Sea: Shirshov Ridge, Bowers Ridge, and Umnak Plateau. New refraction data over Umnak Plateau and previous geophysical data across Bowers Ridge indicate that a thickened welt of crustal material is present beneath both features. The crustal structure is transitional between oceanic and...
Strain on the San Andreas fault near Palmdale, California: Rapid, aseismic change
J.C. Savage, W.H. Prescott, M. Lisowski, N.E. King
1981, Science (211) 56-58
Frequently repeated strain measurements near Palmdale, California, during the period from 1971 through 1980 indicate that, in addition to a uniform accumulation of right-lateral shear strain (engineering shear, 0.35 microradian per year) across the San Andreas fault, a 1-microstrain contraction perpendicular to the fault that accumulated gradually...

High-performance, liquid-chromatographic method for the analysis of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons in water
William R. White, Rolland R. Grabbe
1981, Water-Resources Investigations Report 81-63
High-performance liquid chromatography provides a rapid and sensitive means for determining polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons in water samples. A high-performance liquid chromatograph, coupled with ultraviolet or fluorescence detectors has greater selectivity for analysis than methods using gas-chromatographic and flame-ionization systems.Several natural water samples were fortified with mixtures of polynuclear aromatic hydrocarbons...
