Selected hydrologic data, Chester County, Pennsylvania
Laurence J. McGreevy, Ronald A. Sloto
1976, Report
This report presents selected hydrologic data collected during a study of the ground-water resources of Chester County, Pennsylvania. The study was made during 1973-76 by the U. S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Chester County Water Resources Authority. This report is intended to make the data conveniently available and...
Flood frequency of Mississippi streams
B.E. Colson, James W. Hudson
1976, Report
Techniques have been developed for estimating future flood magnitudes having recurrence intervals as great as 100 years. Estimates for gaged sites were obtained by application of the log-Pearson Type III frequency distribution. Estimates for ungaged sites are defined by mathematical relations which may be solved using data from topographic maps....
Geothermal handbook
1976, FWS/OBS 76/36
The Bureau of Land Management offered over 400,000 hectares (one million acres) for geothermal exploration and development in 1975, and figure is expected to double this year. The Energy Research and Development Administration hopes for 10-15,000 megawatts of geothermal energy by 1985, which would require, leasing over 16.3 million hectares...
Textural variation within Great Salt Lake algal mounds
Robert B. Halley
1976, Book chapter, Stromatolites
This chapter discusses textural variation within the Great Salt Lake algal mounds. Great Salt Lake algal mounds contain: (1) a framework of non-skeletal, algally induced aragonite precipitates; (2) internal sediment; and (3) inorganic cement. These three elements create a variety of laminated, poorly laminated, and unlaminated internal textures. Interior framework...
Optimum level of dietary biotin for growth, feed utilization, and swimming stamina of fingerling lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush)
H. A. Poston
1976, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (33) 1803-1806
Triplicate lots of fingerling lake trout (Salvelinus namaycush) held at 9 C for 20 wk were fed a semipurified basal diet supplemented with 1% spray-dried egg white or d-biotin at concentrations of 0.1, 0.5, 1.0, or 5.0 ppm. Trout fed the basal diet, either alone or with egg white, grew more slowly and...
Glomerular mesangial fibrosis in hatchery-reared rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri)
D.E. Hinton, R.T. Jones, R. L. Herman
1976, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (33) 2551-2559
Light and electron microscopic studies were performed on tissues of hatchery-reared rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) having a disease of currently unknown etiology with external symptoms of severe edema which causes increased mortality rate. Comparison with unaffected trout tissues revealed loss of cellularity in glomerular tufts with a replacement of mesangial...
Fine structure of an unidentified protozoon in the epithelium of rainbow trout exposed to water with Myxosoma cerebralis
S.B. Daniels, R. L. Herman, C.N. Burke
1976, Journal of Protozoology (23) 402-410
An intracellular protozoon was discovered in the epithelium of young rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) exposed for as short a time as 1 hr to water known to contain infective stages of Myxosoma cerebralis. Light- and electron-microscopic examination of this tissue revealed what appeared to be a proliferative stage (presumptive schizont) of a...
Earthquakes June-July 1976
W. J. Person
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 31-33
This was a seismically active period, with one great earthquake, four major earthquakes, and several strong shocks worldwide. Many persons were killed and thousands were injured in three separate events-in West Irian (west New Guinea), in Bali, Indonesia, and in northeastern China. A great earthquake (one with a Richter magnitude 8.0...
Earthquake history of Oklahoma
C. A. von Hake
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 28-30
The strongest and most widely felt earthquake in Oklahoma occurred on April 9, 1952. The intensity VII (Modified Mercalli Scale) tremor was felt over 362,000 sqaure kilometres. A second intensity VII earthquake, felt over a very small area, occurred in October 1956. In addition, 15 other shocks, intensity V or...
The 7.2 magnitude earthquake, November 1975, Island of Hawaii
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS)
The largest earthquake in over a century struck Hawaii the morning of November 29, 1975, at 4:48 AM HST. The earthquake was of magnitude 7.2 on the Richter scale. It was centered about 5 km beneath the Kalapana area on the southeastern coast of Hawaii, the largest island of the Hawaiian...
Monitoring Mount Baker Volcano
S. D. Malone, D. Frank
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 21-25
Hisotrically active volcanoes in the conterminous United States are restricted to the Cascade Range and extend to the Cascade Range and extend from Mount Baker near the Canadian border to Lassen Peak in northern California. Since 1800 A.D, most eruptive activity has been on a relatively small scale and has...
A revised “earthquake report” questionnaire
C. Stover, G. Reagor, R. Simon
1976, Seismological Research Letters (8) 18-22
The revised “Earthquake Report” questionnaire introduced here is designed to restrict the replies on the effects of earthquakes as closely as possible to a set of effects that can be evaluated by use of a computer program. Differences in intensity resulting from evaluation by different individuals using their own qualitative...
Earthquake at 40 feet
G. J. Miller
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 24-25
The earthquake that struck the island of Guam on November 1, 1975, at 11:17 a.m had many unique aspects-not the least of which was the experience of an earthquake of 6.25 Richter magnitude while at 40 feet. My wife Bonnie, a fellow diver, Greg Guzman, and I were diving at...
Earthquakes, November-December 1975
W. J. Person
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 26-29
There were three significant earthquakes during the last 2 months of the year. Two major earthquakes, both magnitude 7.2 occurred, bringing the final major earthquake total for the year to 13, somewhat below the annual average which is about 18. One great earthquake (8.0 and above) per year is average....
Earthquake watch
M. Hill
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 10-11
 When the time comes that earthquakes can be predicted accurately, what shall we do with the knowledge? This was the theme of a November 1975 conference on earthquake warning and response held in San Francisco called by Assistant Secretary of the Interior Jack W. Carlson. Invited were officials of State...
Earthquake history of Rhode Island
C. A. von Hake
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 31-32

Wilbur C. Ballance, William Thordarson
1976, Report
Radiochemical data from the Arnchitka Island study area were obtained from water samples collected by the U.S. Geological Survey during August 1974.
