Geochemical studies in the Indian Pass and Picacho Peak Bureau of Land Management Wilderness study areas, imperial county, Southern California
D. B. Smith, B. R. Berger, R. M. Tosdal
1987, Journal of Geochemical Exploration (28) 479-494
The U.S. Geological Survey has conducted geochemical studies in the Indian Pass (CDCA-355), 124 km2, and Picacho Peak (CDCA-355A), 23 km2, Wilderness Study Areas (WSA's) as part of a program to evaluate the mineral resource potential of designated areas in the California Desert Conservation Area. These two WSA's are of...
Evaluation of the improvement in sensitivity of nested frequency plots to vegetational change by summation
Stuart D. Smith, Stephen C. Bunting, M. Hironaka
1987, Western North American Naturalist (47) 299-307
At four sites in Idaho, frequency was measured separately with three different-sized plots (10 x 25, 15 x 33.5, and 20 x 50 cm) arranged in a nested configuration. These individual frequency values were added together to create a summed “frequency.” This summed value was compared to the original frequency...

An overview of raptor conservation in Latin America
D. H. Ellis, D.G. Smith
1986, Birds of Prey Bulletin (3) 21-25
Prior to the last decade, biological studies of raptorial birds in Latin America were almost nonexistent. For many species little more was known than their general range and habitat type. The last few years have seen the opening of a door to what will surely be a flood of scientific...

Habitat comparisons and productivity in nesting common terns on the mid-Atlantic coast
R.M. Erwin, D. C. Smith
1985, Colonial Waterbirds (8) 155-165
Nesting Common Terns (Sterna hirundo) were studied at a number of barrier beaches and small islands of tidal salt marsh in New Jersey and the Eastern Shore of Maryland-Virginina from 1980 through 1982. Data were collected on clutch sizes, nest spacing, and nesting success. The principal null hypothesis tested was...

Electrical geophysical investigations of massive sulfide deposits and their host rocks, West Shasta copper-zinc district
R. J. Horton, B. D. Smith, J.C. Washburne
1985, Economic Geology (80) 2213-2229
The West Shasta copper-zinc district, Shasta County, California, contains many volcanogenic sulfide deposits within Middle Devonian rhyolites that have not been highly metamorphosed. The district was selected by the U.S. Geological Survey for intensive geological, geochemical, and geophysical study under the Development of Assessment Techniques (DAT) project because accessible exposures...

Preliminary results of spectral induced polarization measurements, Wadi Bidah District, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia

1983, Open-File Report 83-612
Laboratory spectral induced polarization (SIP) measurements on 29 carbonaceous schist samples from the Wadi Bidah district show that most are associated with very long polarization decays or, equivalently, large time constants. In contrast, measurements on two massive sulfide samples indicate shorter polarization decays or smaller time constants. This difference in...
