In-situ measurements of seismic velocities in the San Francisco Bay Region; part III
James F. Gibbs, Thomas E. Fumal, Roger D. Borcherdt, Edward F. Roth
1977, Open-File Report 77-850
Seismic wave velocities (compressional and shear) are important parameters for estimating the seismic response characteristics of various geologic units when subjected to strong earthquake ground shaking. Seismic velocities of various units often show a strong correlation with the amounts of damage following large earthquakes and have been used as a...
Estimating the magnitude and frequency of floods on natural-flow streams in Massachusetts
S. William Wandle Jr.
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-39
The magnitude and frequency of floods on natural-flow streams in Massachusetts, with drainage areas between 0.25 square mile and 497 square miles, may be estimated from drainage area, main channel slope, a precipitation index, and a storage factor. Multiple-regression techniques were used to define the relationship between basin and climatic...
Hydrologic reconnaissance of the eastern North Slope, Alaska, 1975
Joseph M. Childers, C. E. Sloan, J.P. Meckel, J. W. Nauman
1977, Open-File Report 77-492
The part of the Arctic coast of Alaska between the Colville River and the Canadian boundary was visited in April, August, and November 1975. The study area is characterized by its cold climate and is largely uninhabited, but oil and gas discoveries have spurred development of parts of the area....
Preliminary report on radioactive conglomerates of Middle Precambrian age in the Sierra Madre and Medicine Bow Mountains of southeastern Wyoming
Robert Stroud Houston, P. J. Graff, K. E. Karlstrom, Forrest Root
1977, Open-File Report 77-574
Middle Precambrian miogeosynclinal metasedimentary rocks o# the Sierra Madre and Medicine Bow Mountains of southeastern Wyoming contain radioactive quartz-pebble conglomerates of possible economic interest. These conglomerates do not contain ore-grade uranium in surface outcrops, but an earlier report on the geochemistry of the Arrastre Lake area of the Medicine Bow...
Particle size of sediments collected from the bed of the Amazon River and its tributaries in June and July 1976
Carl F. Nordin Jr., R.H. Meade, H.A. Mahoney, B.M. Delany
1977, Open-File Report 77-400
Sixty-five samples of bed material were collected from the Amazon River and its major tributaries between Belem, Brazil, and Iquitos, Peru. Samples were taken with a standard BM-54 sampler, a pipe dredge, or a Helley-Smith bedload sampler. Most of the samples have median diameters in the size range of fine...
Effects of off-road vehicles on vertebrates in the California desert
R. Bruce Bury, Roger A. Luckenbach, Stephen D. Busack
1977, Wildlife Research Report 8
Off-road vehicle (ORV) use provides a form of outdoor recreation that is increasingly popular. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of these machines on creosote shrub habitat and associated wildlife in the western California Desert. Comparisons at eight paired sites (Control and ORV use) demonstrate that...
DEROCS: A computer program to simulate offshore oil and natural gas development scenarios and onshore service base requirements
Philip A. Marcus, E.T. Smith, S.R. Robinson, A.T. Wong
1977, Open-File Report 77-130
The FORTRAN IV (H) computer program, DEROCS, constructs Outer Continental Shelf (OCS) resource development scenarios and quantifies the requirements for and impacts of the operation of the onshore service bases necessary to support offshore oil and gas operations. The acronym DEROCS stands for 'Development of Energy Resources of the Outer...
Time of travel of solutes in the Tuscarawas River Basin, Ohio, August and September, 1974
Arthur O. Westfall, Earl E. Webber
1977, Water-Resources Investigations Report 77-23
A time-of-travel study was made on a 106-mile reach of the Tuscarawas River to determine average velocity and dispersion characteristics between selected points. The reach was divided into five subreaches, and a fluorescent dye used as a tracer material. At about the 50-percent flow-duration level, time of travel of the...
