Determination of Manning's N from vertical‐velocity curves
Walter B. Langbein
1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 618-620
Professor M. P. O'Brien [see 1, 2 of “References” at end of paper] has recently shown that data on the vertical distribution of velocity through the theory of turbulent flow as developed by Prandtl, Von Karman, and others may be applied to the determination of friction‐coefficients in open channels. Hydrographers...
Salt‐water intrusion in the Connecticut River
C. S. Howard
1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 355-357
The intrusion of salt water in the lower Connecticut River Basin was studied during October 1, 1934, to June 30, 1939. The field‐ and laboratory‐work was done as a project of the Works Progress Administration under the sponsorship of the State Water Commission of the State of Connecticut. Some technical...
The evaluation of magnetic anomalies by means of scales
Irwin Roman
1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 319-321
At the 1939 meeting of the Union [Fundamental research in geophysics relating to prospecting, Trans. Amer. Geophys. Union, 1939, pp. 302 and 390], the writer described a set of scales for aiding in the evaluation of the magnetic anomaly due to a selected magnetized body. During the past year, these...

1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 373-374
The Runoff Committee during the year has consisted of H. K. Barrows, Merrill Bernard, E. S. Callings, R. S. Goodridge, G. A. Hathaway, Joseph Jacobs, Prof. F. T. Mavis, H. S. Riesbol, Waldo E. Smith, F. F. Snyder, and H. G. Wilm. The Committee represents a rather wide geographic distribution,...
Magnetic studies of the Florida peninsula
F.W. Lee, J.H. Swartz
1940, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (21) 297-301
This investigation was undertaken primarily as a pilot‐experiment for gaining information concerning the field‐technique and accuracy which is needed for covering large areas in detail and at the same time economically. Owing to the complex nature of magnetic observations, such a pilot‐study serves, in addition, as a basis for determining...
Phosphate deposits of the United States 
George R. Mansfield
1940, Economic Geology (35) 405-429
Different types of phosphate deposits and different sources of phosphate in the United States are briefly discussed. In Florida two types of phosphate are now mined, land pebble and hard rock. The principal characteristics of these types of rock are stated and methods of prospecting, mining and recovery briefly outlined....
Ground-water resources of Kansas
R.C. Moore, S. W. Lohman, J.C. Frye, H.A. Waite, Thad G. McLaughlin, Bruce Latta
1940, Kansas Geological Survey Bulletin (1940) 1-112
Introduction: Water is a necessity of life. Accordingly, every person is deeply interested in the subject of water supply. He knows that he must have water to drink. He depends indirectly on water for all his food and clothing. He may want water in which to wash. Civilized man has...
Ground water in the Oklahoma Panhandle
S.L. Schoff
1940, Economic Geology (35) 534-545
An investigation begun in 1937 by the United States and the Oklahoma Geological Surveys, has shown that the depth to the water table in the Oklahoma Panhandle ranges from less than 25 feet in parts of major valleys to about 3oo feet in parts of the uplands. In 8 upland...
Geology and ground-water resources of the islands of Lanai and Kahoolawe, Hawaii
Harold T. Stearns, Gordon Andrew Macdonald, Joel Howard Swartz
1940, Bulletin 6
Lanai lies 59 miles southeast of Honolulu, Oahu, has an area of 141 square miles, and is 3,370 feet high. (See fig. 1 and pl. 1.) Lanai City is the only town of importance. The island produces pineapples and cattle. The surface above about 1,200 feet is generally covered with...
