Kansas River, Bonner Springs to mouth - Degradation of channel
L.W. Furness, C.D. Albert, R. B. Leonard
1967, Open-File Report 67-93
This report has been prepared at the request of the Kansas Water Resources Board under provisions of a cooperative agreement with the U.S. Geological Survey dated July 1, 1966, for water-resources investigations. The Kansas Water Resources Board has been advised of a recent serious degradation of the low-water channel of...
National Atlas, Indian tribes, cultures & languages
William C. Sturtevant
1967, Report
Tribal distributions depicted on these maps (and on all other tribal maps covering a comparable area) are arbitrary at many points. Detailed knowledge of tribal areas was acquired at different times in different regions. For example, by the time knowledge was gained of the areas occupied by Plains tribes, many...
Surveying the earth's resources from space
William T. Pecora
1967, Surveying and Mapping (27) 639-643
Two developments, aerial photography and airborne geophysical surveying techniques, have already increased the rate at which new knowledge of the world's resources can be acquired. But even with far wider use of the tools and techniques already available, the problems that face us are greater than our current ability to...
Radar remote sensing in biology
Richard K. Moore, David S. Simonett
1967, BioScience (17) 384-390
The present status of research on discrimination of natural and cultivated vegetation using radar imaging systems is sketched. The value of multiple polarization radar in improved discrimination of vegetation types over monoscopic radars is also documented. Possible future use of multi-frequency, multi-polarization radar systems for all weather agricultural survey is...
Explorers from space
Raymond W. Fary Jr.
1967, Journal of Geological Education (15) 99-104
The statement that a new era in exploration is opening will almost surely bring to mind the venturing of man into space and the ever more imminent exploration of the moon. The reference here, however, is to exploration of earth itself and to the unique capabilities for study of the...
The Alaska earthquake, March 27, 1964: effects on transportation, communications, and utilities
Malcolm H. Logan, Lynn R. Burton, Edwin B. Eckel, Reuben Kachadoorian, David S. McCulloch, Manuel G. Bonilla
1967, Professional Paper 545
This is the forth in a series of six reports that the U.S. Geological Survey published on the results of a comprehensive geologic study that began, as a reconnaissance survey, within 24 hours after the March 27, 1964, Magnitude 9.2 Great Alaska Earthquake and extended, as detailed investigations, through several...
Availability of ground water in Decatur County, Iowa
J.W. Cagle, W. L. Steinhilber
1967, Iowa Geological Survey Water Atlas 2
Decatur County and several other counties in south-central Iowa comprise an area that has been chronically short of good-quality water.  Municipalities, industries and rural water users alike have been affected by the water shortage.  Municipalities have experienced serious problems in obtaining potable supplies adequate to keep pace with their growth...
Evaluation of potential sources of water in Crater Lake Natonal Park, Oregon
E. R. Hampton
1967, Report
Crater Lake National Park, in volcanic terrain at the crest of the southern Cascade Range, is well watered by a 67-inch average annual precipitation, measured at park headquarters. Existing park facilities utilize springs that provide quantities of water adequate for present-day as well as foreseeable future needs. Ground water occurs under...
ALVIN dives on the continental margin off the southeastern United States
John D. Milliman, Frank T. Manheim, R. M. Pratt, E. F. K. Zarudzki
1967, Report
In late June and July, 1967, the Deep Submergence Research Vehicle (DSRV) ALVIN, aboard its mother snip, LULU, proceeded from the spring base of operations, Nassau, to its home port of Woods Hole. During this trip, from July 2 to July 14, a series of five dives were made by...
Climate and streamflow of Puerto Rico
E.V. Giusti, M. A. Lopez
1967, Caribbean Journal of Science (7) 87-93
The presently available data on streamflow, runoff rainfall, and temperature of Puerto Rico are evaluated, although the period of record is very short, with a view to contributing to the knowledge of hydrology of tropical islands. The average annual streamflow in Puerto Rico is 45 percent of the annual rainfall, or 15 percent more than in the eastern piedmont of...
