The use of soils and paleosols for interpreting geomorphic and climatic history of arid regions
John Miller, Luna Bergere Leopold
1953, Research Council of Israel Special Publication 2
The study of modern surface soils, and ancient weathering zones, which occur either buried or as surface relicts, has contributed materially to understanding the complex events of the glacial and post-glacial period both in glaciated areas and in regions not influenced by glaciation. Most work of this kind in the...
Relation of suspended-sediment concentration to channel scour and fill
Luna Bergere Leopold, Thomas Maddock Jr.
1953, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the fifth Hydraulics Conference, June 9-11, 1952, arranged by the Iowa Institute of Hydraulic Research
It is known that during the passage of a flood the channel of an alluvial stream scours and fills with considerable rapidity. Though such changes may be random, it seems more likely that there is a definite pattern of channel change directly related both to discharge and to the sediment...

Mortimer H. Staatz, A.F. Trites
1952, Trace Elements Investigations 138
The Quartz Creek pegmatite district includes an area about 29 square miles in the vicinity of Quartz Creek in Gunnison County,. Colo. This area contains 1,803 pegmatites that are intruded into pre-Cambrian rocks. The rocks exposed in the district range in age from pre-Cambrian to Recent. The oldest pre-Cambrian rocks are...

A.J. Lang Jr., J. A. Redden
1952, Trace Elements Investigations 155
The Fourmile area, Custer County, S. Dak., is in pre-Cambrian metamorphic rocks that surround the granitic core of the Black Hills. The area is on the upright limb of an overturned anticline that plunges about 30° S. 10° E. Three new formations of metamorphic rocks are described that have a total...

Stratigraphy of the outcropping formations in southern Florida
Melvin Carroll Schroeder, Nevin Douglas Hoy
1952, Conference Paper, A summary of the geology of Florida and a guidebook to the Cenozoic exposures of a portion of the State
The geology of southern Florida, except for the Pliocene deposits, is not widely known among geologists and paleontologists. The popular concept is that there are very few outcrops in this part of the State. It is true that there are very few natural exposures, but the dredging of rivers and...
Results of exploration at Lost Creek schroeckingerite deposit, Sweetwater County, Wyoming
Douglas M. Sheridan, John T. Collier, Richard S. Sears
1952, Trace Elements Memorandum 288
The U. S. Geological Survey, on behalf of the Atomic Energy Commission, from July 1951 to February 1952, explored the Lost Creek schroeckingerite deposit, Sweetwater County, Wyoming, by means of auger- drilling, trenching, and bucket-drilling. This report presents an estimate of the inferred ore reserves obtained during this exploration. The inferred reserves are presented under...

1952, Trace Elements Memorandum 322
Reconnaissance examinations for uranium were made at nine localities in the York, Nome, and Koyuk districts of the Seward Peninsula, Alaska, during .the 1951 field season. In addition carborne radiometric traverses were made of four roads in the Nome and Council districts. Only at Brooks Mountain in the York district are uranium-bearing deposits that required...
