Guidelines for sample collecting and analytical methods used in the U.S. Geological Survey for determining chemical composition of coal
Vernon Emanuel Swanson, Claude Huffman
1976, Circular 735
This report is intended to meet the many requests for information on current U.S. Geological Survey procedures in handling coal samples. In general, the exact type and number of samples of coal and associated rock to be collected are left to the best judgment of the geologist. Samples should be of...

Earthquakes and related catastrophic events, Island of Hawaii, November 29, 1975: A preliminary report
Robert I. Tilling, R. Y. Koyanagi, P. W. Lipman, J. P. Lockwood, J.G. Moore, D. A. Swanson
1976, Circular 740
The largest earthquake in over a century--magnitude 7.2 on the Richter Scale--struck Hawaii the morning of November 29, 1975, at 0448. It was centered about 5 km beneath the Kalapana area on the southeastern coast of the island at 19° 20.1 ' N., long 155° 01.4 ' W.). The earthquake...
Analytical precision of one-sixth order semiquantitative spectrographic analysis
J. M. Motooka, D. J. Grimes
1976, Circular 738
Over 2,700 separate analyses were made on 22 different geologic samples selected to cover wide concentration ranges for the 30 elements studied. The precision for low, medium, and high concentrations of each element determined is represented by superimposed frequency diagrams and displays the frequency of reported values occurring within one-sixth...

Selection of streamflow and reservoir-release models for river-quality assessment
Marshall E. Jennings, James O. Shearman, Daniel P. Bauer
1976, Circular 715-E
For nearly half a century the Willamette River in Oregon experienced severe dissolved-oxygen problems related to large loads of organically rich waste waters from industries and municipalities. Since the mid-1950 's dissolved oxygen quality has gradually improved owing to low-flow augmentation, the achievement of basinwide secondary treatment, and the use...

The Guatemalan earthquake of February 4, 1976, a preliminary report
A. F. Espinosa, editor(s)
1976, Professional Paper 1002
The Guatemalan earthquake of February 4, 1976, with a surface-wave magnitude of 7.5, was generated by left-lateral slippage on the Motagua fault and was felt over an area of at least 100,000 km2. This earthquake claimed more than 22,700 lives and injured more than 76,000 people. The preliminary estimate of...

Richard B. Stone, Lawson V. Causey, D.F. Tucker
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-54
Floods in the consolidated city of Jacksonville, Duval County, Florida, are caused directly by rainfall which, when combined with storm driven tides, causes rivers or other bodies of water to flood the low lying parts of the county. This map report supplies information on areas subject to floods of 100-year...
