Minor and trace element contents of kimberlites of the Front Range, Colorado and Wyoming
M. E. McCallum, C.B. Smith
1978, Open-File Report 78-1011
Since 1960 about 90 separate occurrences of kimberlite have been discovered in the Front Range of northern Colorado and southern Wyoming, and in the Laramie Range, Wyoming (e.g., McCallum, Eggler, and Burns, 1975; McCallum, Eggler, Coopersmith, Smith, and Mabarak, 1977; Smith and others, 1977 and in press). All but two...
Reconnaissance assessment of erosion and sedimentation in the Canada de los Alamos Basin, Los Angeles and Ventura counties, California
J. M. Knott
1978, Open-File Report 78-873
An assessment of present erosion and sedimentation conditions in the Canada de Los Alamos basin, Calif., was made to aid in estimating the impact of off-road-vehicle use on the sediment yield of the basin. Evaluations were made by reconnaissance techniques and by comparing the study area with other off-road-vehicle sites...

EROS Data Center Landsat digital enhancement techniques and imagery availability
Wayne G. Rohde, Jinn Kai Lo, Russell A. Pohl
1978, Canadian Journal of Remote Sensing (4) 63-76
The US Geological Survey's EROS Data Center (EDC) is experimenting with the production of digitally enhanced Landsat imagery. Advanced digital image processing techniques are used to perform geometric and radiometric corrections and to perform contrast and edge enhancements. The enhanced image product is produced from digitally preprocessed Landsat computer compatible...
Use of a remote computer terminal during field checking of Landsat digital maps
Charles J. Robinove, C.F. Hutchinson
1978, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (6) 511-514
Field checking of small-scale land classification maps made digitally from Landsat data is facilitated by use of a remote portable teletypewriter terminal linked by teleplume to the IDIMS (Interactive Digital Image Manipulation System) at the EDC (EROS Data Center), Sioux Falls, S. Dak. When field checking of maps 20 miles...
The metallogenic role of east-west fracture zones in South America with regard to the motion of lithospheric plates (with an example from Brazil)
J. Kutina, William D. Carter, F.X. Lopez
1978, Jornal de Mineralogia (7) 97-110
The role of east-west fracture zones in South America is discussed with regard to global fracturing and the motion of lithospheric plates. A set of major NW-trending lineaments has been derived which show a tendency to be spaced equidistantly and may correspond to a set of east-west fractures in the...

The pattern of lineaments and curvilinear features interpreted from a 1:5,000,000 mosaic of satellite images (Landsat-1 was superimposed on a simplified version of the Geological Map of the United States, 1:2,500,000 scale, showing the structural scheme of Central and Eastern United States. A comparison of the above two patterns, shown...
Hydrological applications of Landsat imagery used in the study of the 1973 Indus River flood, Pakistan
Morris Deutsch, F.H. Ruggles Jr.
1978, Journal of the American Water Resources Association (14) 261-274
During August and September 1973, the Indus River Valley of Pakistan experienced one of the largest floods on record, resulting in damages to homes, businesses, public works, and crops amounting to millions of rupees. Tremendous areas of lowlands were inundated along the Indus River and major tributaries. Landsat data made...
Flood damage assessment using computer-assisted analysis of color infrared photography
William H. Anderson
1978, Journal of Soil and Water Conservation (33) 283-286
Use of digitized aerial photographs for flood damage assessment in agriculture is new and largely untested. However, under flooding circumstances similar to the 1975 Red River Valley flood, computer-assisted techniques can be extremely useful, especially if detailed crop damage estimates are needed within a relatively short period of time.Airphoto interpretation...

Simulation model of Cryptomonas ovata population dynamics in southern Kootenay Lake, British Columbia
James E. Cloern
1978, Ecological Modelling (4)-133
A one-dimensional transient model is developed to simulate observed population dynamics of a small flagellate (Cryptomonas ovata) in southern Kootenay Lake, B.C., during a 1-year period (1 June 1974-31 May 1975). The model considers advective displacement of C. ovata as water flows from its southern entrance into the lake and moves northward...
