Structure of the crust in the conterminous United States
David H. Warren, J. H. Healy
1973, Tectonophysics (20) 203-213
On the basis of the newest interpretations of all sufficiently long seismic profiles, a contour map of the Mohorovičić discontinuity for the conterminous United States is compiled. Differences from earlier interpretations are discussed....
Mechanisms of high-temperature, solid-state flow in minerals and ceramics and their bearing on the creep behavior of the mantle
Stephen H. Kirby, C.B. Raleigh
1973, Tectonophysics (19) 165-194
The problem of applying laboratory silicate-flow data to the mantle, where conditions can be vastly different, is approached through a critical review of high-temperature flow mechanisms in ceramics and their relation to empirical flow laws. The intimate association of solid-state diffusion and high-temperature creep in pure metals is found to...
Spectrophotometric procedure using rhodamine B for determination of submicrogram quantities of antimony in rocks
Marian M. Schnepfe
1973, Talanta (20) 175-184
A spectrophotometric procedure using Rhodamine B is given for the determination of antimony in mineralized rocks after its separation as stibine. A study of the Rhodamine B reaction points to the importance of the order of addition of reagents in enhancing sensitivity and increasing the stability...

Review of wastewater problems and wastewater-management planning in the San Francisco Bay region, California
Walter G. Hines
1973, Open-File Report 73-112
The San Francisco Bay region has suffered adverse environmental effects related to the discharge of municipal-, industrial-, and agricultural- wastewater and storm-water runoff. Specific pollutional properties of theses discharges are not well understood in all cases although the toxic materials and aquatic-plant nutrients (biostimulants) found in municipal and industrial...
