Geology and ground-water resources of west-central Lewis County, Washington
J.M. Weigle, B. L. Foxworthy
1962, Water Supply Bulletin 17
Lewis County lies within the Puget Trough section of the Pacific Border physiographic province. The west-central part of the county, an irregularly shaped area of about 830 square miles, contains the bulk of the county's population and virtually all of its ground-water development. It occupies the central part of a...
Crustal structure in Nevada and southern Idaho from nuclear explosions
L. C. Pakiser, D.P. Hill
1962, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 4
The time of first arrival of seismic waves generated by 4 underground nuclear explosions at the Nevada Test Site (NTS) and recorded along a line extending north into southern Idaho is expressed as T0 = 0. 00 + Δ/3.0 (assumed), T1 = 0 .40 + Δ/6.03, and T2 = 6.15...
Surface Water Records of California, 1962; Volume 2: Northern Great Basin and Central Valley
1962, Water Data Report CA-62-2
The surface-water records for the 1962 water year for gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites within the State of California are given in this report. For convenience there are also included records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States. The records were collected and computed by the...
Digital processing of array seismic recordings
Alan Ryall, John Birtill
1962, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 2
This technical letter contains a brief review of the operations which are involved in digital processing of array seismic recordings by the methods of velocity filtering, summation, cross-multiplication and integration, and by combinations of these operations (the "UK Method" and multiple correlation). Examples are presented of analyses by the several...
Times and locations of explosions; U.S. Geological Survey 1962 field season
John C. Roller
1962, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 3
The U.S. Geological Survey detonated 86 large charges of chemical explosives in the western United States from 6 June to 9 August 1962, in a study of crustal structure in the western United States. This Technical Letter consists of two tables containing information about these explosions. Table I gives a...

Crustal structure along the coast of California from seismic-refraction measurements
J. H. Healy
1962, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 5
Two reversed seismic-refraction profiles were recorded between Los Angeles and San Francisco in 1961. The three shotpoints were located in Santa Monica Bay, offshore near San Francisco, and at Camp Roberts, about halfway between Los Angeles and San Francisco. The velocity of Pg along these profiles is 6.1 ± 0.1...
Fish kill from underwater explosions
David J. Stuart
1962, Crustal Studies Technical Letter 6
The U.S. Geological Survey has used 23 different shotpoints during two seasons of field work in our seismic study of crustal structure in western United States. Without exception, it has been found that under-water shotpoints result in a more efficient conversion of explosive energy into seismic energy than do drilled-hole...
Surface water records of New Mexico, water year 1962

The surface-water records for the 1962 water year for gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites within the State of New Mexico are given in this report. For convenience there are also included records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States. The records were collected and computed by...
Occurrence of Trypanosoma cruzi in Maryland
C. M. Herman, J.I. Bruce Jr.
1962, Proceedings of the Helminthological Society of Washington (29) 55-58
During 1954-1960, 2005 mammals of 18 species collected at the Patuxent Wildlife Research Center, Maryland, were examined for trypanosomes. T. cruzi was found in 10 raccoons between October 31 and November 30. Infection occurred in 2 percent of all raccoons sampled, and in 11.3 percent of the 80 raccoons sampled...

Determination of 2-isovaleryl-1,3-indandione with 2,4-dinitrophenylhydrazine. Rodenticide Analysis.
C. M. Menzie, V. A. Adomaitis, W. L. Reichel
1962, Analytical Chemistry (34) 516-518
At present, three 2-alkyl-1,3-indandiones (PMP, pival, and diphacinon) are widely used as rodenticides. Because analytical procedures now in use are empirical and do not furnish adequate or positive means for distinguishing among these closely related compounds, studies were undertaken to develop a sensitive and specific method for the determination...

Evaluating causes of population change in North American insectivorous songbirds
C.S. Robbins
1962, Audubon Field Notes (16) 142
Although the North American Breeding Bird Survey (BBS) is a principal source of information regarding populations of most North American bird species, many features of the survey complicate analysis of population change. Correlation studies based on BBS data cannot be used to unambiguously define cause and effect relationships....
Salt-water encroachment into aquifers of the Raritan Formation in the Sayreville Area, Middlesex County, New Jersey
Charles A. Appel
1962, Report
The principal sources of ground water in the Sayreville area are the Old Bridge Sand and Farrington Sand Members of the Raritan Formation of Late Cretaceous age. These aquifers yielded about 32.3 mgd (million gallons per day) for public and industrial water supplies in 1958; about 24.5 mgd was withdrawn...
