Atlantic walrus (Odobenus rosmarus rosmarus): A literature survey and status report
Randall R. Reeves
1978, Wildlife Research Report 10
It is generally agreed that the genus Odobenus includes only one species, O. rosmarus. At least two subspecies are widely recognized: O. r. rosmarus, the Atlantic walrus, and O. r. divergens, the Pacific walrus. A third nominal subspecies, O. r. laptevi, the Laptev walrus, is designated by some Soviet researchers;...
Evaluation of the geologic and hydrologic factors related to the waste-storage potential of Mesozoic aquifers in the southern part of the Atlantic Coastal Plain, South Carolina and Georgia
Philip M. Brown, D.L. Brown, M.S. Reid, O. B. Lloyd Jr.
1978, Open-File Report 78-292
This report describes the subsurface distribution of rocks of Cretaceous to Late Jurassic(?) age in the Atlantic. Coastal Plain, South Carolina and Georgia, and examines their potential for deep-well waste storage. For mapping purposes a waste-storage "operational unit" is established and defined. It is a sand or sandstone layer, 20...

Geotechnical properties of sediments from the Continental Shelf south of Icy Bay, northeastern Gulf of Alaska
Paul R. Carlson, William P. Levy, Bruce F. Molnia, John C. Hampson Jr.
1978, Open-File Report 78-1071
Studies of geotechnical properties of marine sediments have recently intensified as the search for natural resources has expanded on the continental shelf. The U. S. Geological Survey has begun a detailed evaluation of geologic environmental conditions in continental shelf regions in order to facilitate safe development of continental shelf resources....

Land use and land cover information and air-quality planning
W.E. Reed, J.E. Lewis
1978, Professional Paper 1099-B
The land use and land cover information developed by the U.S. Geological Survey in the Central Atlantic Regional Ecological Test Site project has been proven useful when used in an improved technique for estimating emissions, diffusion, and impact patterns of sulfur dioxide (S02) and particulate matter. Implementation of plans to...
Water resources of Camas Prairie, south-central Idaho
H.W. Young
1978, Water-Resources Investigations Report 78-82
Ground-water pumpage in Camas Prairie, Idaho, for irrigation and municipal supplies totaled nearly 9,500 acre-feet in 1977. Declines of pressure head in the artesian aquifer have ranged from 3 to 12 feet since 1974 when increased ground-water pumping began. A comparison of water-level measurements made in September 1957 and September...
