Methods of measuring water levels in deep wells
M. S. Garber, F. C. Koopman
1968, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 08-A1
Accurate measurement of water levels deeper than 1,000 feet in wells requires specialized equipment. Corrections for stretch and thermal expansion of measuring tapes must be considered, and other measuring devices must be calibrated periodically. Bore-hole deviation corrections also must be made. Devices for recording fluctuation of fluid level usually require...
Gold distribution in surface sediments on the continental shelf off southern Oregon: A preliminary report
H. Edward Clifton
1968, Circular 587
Local concentrations of gold have been identified in surface sediments on the continental shelf off southern Oregon between Cape Arago and Cape Sebastian, a distance of about 40 miles. Concentrations of gold range from the lower limit of detection, 5 parts per billion, to almost 150 parts per billion. The largest...

Mica deposits of the Blue Ridge in North Carolina
Frank Gardner Lesure
1968, Professional Paper 577
Pegmatites in the Blue Ridge of North Carolina are important sources of sheet and scrap mica, feldspar, kaolin, and quartz. Small amounts of beryl, columbite-tantalite, monazite, samarskite, and uranium minerals also have been produced. The mica-bearing pegmatites occur in mica and hornblende gneiss and schist throughout the Blue Ridge province...
Geology of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, Tennessee and North Carolina

1968, Professional Paper 587
The boundary between Tennessee and North Carolina is delimited for about 50 miles in midlength by the crests of the Great Smoky Mountains, which include some of the highest summits in the southeastern United States, and which culminate in Clingmans Dome (alt 6,642 ft). Ramifying spurs and foothills descend northwestward...

1968, Professional Paper 422-L
A kinematic wave is a grouping cf moving objects in zones along a flow path and through which the objects pass. These concentrations may be characterized by a simple relation between the speed of the moving objects and their spacing as a result of interaction between them.Vehicular traffic has long...
