1946, Geological Investigations, Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, Alaska 1
This report deals with results of field and laboratory studies carried out to May 1946 by the Geological Survey, largely as part of the Navy Department's program of petroleum investigations in northern Alaska. The immediate purpose of the work has been to collect and interpret stratigraphic and structural data pertinent...

During the summer of 1946 the United States Geological Survey, as part of its program of stratigraphic and structural investigations in the Naval Petroleum Reserve No. 4, had one field party investigating the Umiat area.The stratigraphy of the area was already fairly well known from earlier investigations. The main object...

The highland border fanglomerates of the Newark basin in New York, New Jersey, and eastern Pennsylvania show no extraordinary correlation with present drainage either in distribution or lithologic character and degree of rounding of their gravels. The writer found no evidence of deposition of any of the fanglomerates by major...

U. S. Geological Survey Party No. 4 covered the area between 68° 30' and 69° 08' N. latitude and between 154° and 155°20' W. longitude during the period May 18 to September 2. Traverses were confined mainly to the valleys of the Kurupa, Colville, and Oolamnagavik Rivers inasmuch as very...

Copper‐bearing magnetite deposits and associated copper deposits at Kasaan Peninsula, Prince of Wales Island, southeastern Alaska, have been known for many years and have been mined to some extent for their copper content. At the beginning of World War II, the development of war industries in the Pacific northwest focused attention...

A small differential thermal analysis unit that embodies the fundamental features of larger laboratory models is designed for field exploration for bauxite and related materials. The apparatus, requiring only a source of electrical power, combines portability with ease of operation and rapid analysis. The portable unit is suitable for quantitative...

The volcanic rocks of Haleakala Volcano comprise, from oldest to youngest, the Honomanu, Kula, and Hana volcanic series. The Honomanu volcanic series consists largely of olivine basalt, with less abundant basalt and picrite-basalt containing large phenocrysts of olivine. In the Kula and Hana volcanic series there are some basalts and...

Increasing emphasis has been given in recent years to the installation of wells in sand and gravel deposits along perennial streams. Under favorable conditions water enters the aquifer from the adjacent stream so that the safe yield is not limited by recharge from local precipitation [see “References” at end of...

The activity of Parícutin varied greatly during the period April 12 to May 3. The strong eruptive activity that began in mid‐March, marked on March 17 by the formation of a new boca with a short‐lived volcancito and by external changes in the form of the cone, continued until April...

A partial differential equation is set up for radial flow in an elastic artesian aquifer into which there is vertical leakage in proportion to the drawdown. This differential equation is integrated to obtain two steady state solutions, one for the case of a well in an infinite aquifer, and the...

The glacial anticyclone theory, which William H. Hobbs propounded in 1910, is today still the only definitely formulated theory concerning the atmospheric movements that take place over an ice sheet of large extent. It stands chiefly on deductive grounds and contains several features that to climatologists as well as to...

To Preston P. Macy, Superintendent of Olympic National Park, the Committee is indebted for the first data on the recession of the Blue Glacier, one of the major ice streams on Mount Olympus. Annual measurements to its terminus were begun in 1938, the year in which Olympic National Park was...

The Subcommittee on Permeability of the Permanent Research Committee on Ground Water of the Section of Hydrology, was organized in 1943 to provide for the open discussion of the terminology relating to permeability with a view toward the elimination of conflicting usages and the clarification and standardization of acceptable terms....

In the development of terms and units for a new science such as ground‐water hydrology, which is based on physics, it would seem fitting to adopt the terminology that has become standard in other branches of physics such as heat and electricity. Darcy's law has its counterpart in similar laws...

In any effort to establish nomenclature relating to the flow of fluids through porous media it would seem well first to consider the history of the development of our concepts and of the terms or expressions involved. Only in this way can precedent rightfully be honored and at the same...

Because of war‐imposed responsibilities of most agencies and individuals this year, no new programs were undertaken by the Committee, but the work of the Subcommittee on Permeability was continued, and a substantial progress report by C. E. Jacob, Acting Chairman, and by members of this Subcommittee follows this report as...

Explorers began to push into the vast uncharted areas of the West in 1804, when Captains Lewis and Clarke ascended the Missouri River, crossed the Rocky Mountains into the headwaters of the Columbia River, and followed that stream to the Pacific Ocean. The honor of being the first white man...

Matthew I. Rorabaugh (U.S. Geological Survey, Louisville, Kentucky, August 27, 1945)—In regions where snow is not a factor there is some advantage in making forecasts based on the effects of travel time and base flow. However, the runoff which results from precipitation during the period of forecast usually constitutes a...

The membership of the committee has been selected to afford good representation of geographic sections and of organizations engaged in runoff research. Some new members were added during the year in order to strengthen the representation of the committee in certain phases of runoff research. Norbert H. Leupold submitted his...

The variety of usage and even the confusion in the nomenclature and terminology of some fields of hydrology have been often remarked. The Committee on Runoff conceived the idea that it would be profitable to consider some of the terms which are especially pertinent to the field of runoff. That...
