Selected fluvial monazite deposits in the southeastern United States
William C. Overstreet, A. M. White, P. K. Theobald, D. W. Caldwell
1971, Open-File Report 71-222
Farther southwest in Georgia, around Griffin and Zebullon, along streams tributary to the Flint River in the monazite belt the flood plains are generally small and discontinuous, and only about 1 percent of the sediment is gravel. The area between Griffin, Zebullon, and the Flint River is underlain by biotite...

ERTS-A: a new apogee for mineral finding
William D. Carter
1971, Mining Engineering (23) 51-53
The EROS Program will continue investigations to select or develop optimum, economical airborne and space systems that will expand man's ability to observe and profit from natural resources. It is to be hoped that several of these systems will eventually prove useful supplements to current and developing mineral exploration technology....
Hydrogeologic characteristics of the valley-fill aquifer in the Arkansas River Valley, Bent County, Colorado
R. Theodore Hurr, John E. Moore
1971, Report
The investigation on which this report is based is a part of a comprehensive evaluation of the water resources of the Arkansas River valley undertaken by the U.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Colorado Water Conservation Board and the Southeastern Colorado Water Conservancy District. The study reach extends 150...
Availability of ground water for public-water supply in the Pensacola area, Florida: interim report, June 1971
Henry Trapp Jr.
1971, Open-File Report 72-002
Statement of the problem Earlier hydrologic studies show that ample quantities of soft water of low dissolved solids content are obtainable from the sand-and-gravel aquifer in the Pensacola area. Some wells drilled for the city of Pensacola have yielded water with unacceptably high amounts of iron and carbon dioxide, and wells...
Palynology, age, and correlation of the Wanship Formation and their implications for the tectonic history of northeastern Utah
Douglas J. Nichols, M.A. Warner
1971, Geology (6) 30-33
Although never formally introduced, the stratigraphic name Wanship Formation has become entrenched in the literature; recently, misunderstanding of its age and correlation has led to invalid interpretations of the structural evolution of northeastern Utah. The basal Wanship conglomerate has been erroneously correlated with a conglomerate within the Frontier Formation at Coalville. The Coalville section has been dated as Cenomanian-Coniacian. The Wanship Formation at its "type locality"...
Water resources data for Indiana, 1970
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1971, Water Data Report IN-70-1
Water resources data for the 1970 water year for Indiana, including records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites, and records of water-quality data on the chemical and physical characteristics of surface-water are given in this report. Records for a few pertinent gaging and...

The acoustic streamflow-measuring system on the Columbia River at The Dalles, Oregon
Winchell Smith, Larry L. Hubbard, Antonius Laenen
1971, Report
Records of discharge on the Columbia River at The Dalles, Oreg., are vital to the management of the complex water-development projects in the Columbia River basin. Accurate discharge figures are needed for consistent day-to-day management and are required to meet treaty obligations with Canada. Because dams have been erected that completely...
Interstitial water studies on small core samples, deep sea drilling Project, leg 7
F.L. Sayles, Frank T. Manheim
1971, Initial reports of the Deep Sea Drilling Project (7) 871-881
The sediments cored on Leg 7 are predominantly deep sea biogenic oozes and chalks; only rarely were significant quantities of pelagic clays and volcanic detritus encountered. The biogenic sections include both siliceous and calcareous deposits. At three sites the drilling terminated in basalt, one of which (Site 62) is interpreted...

Precipitation depth-duration-frequency relations for the San Francisco Bay region, California, with isohyetal map of San Francisco Bay region, California, showing mean annual precipitation
S. E. Rantz
1971, Basic Data Contribution 25
Precipitation depth-duration-frequency relations have been derived for the San Francisco Bay region, California. The regimen of precipitation in the region is such that depth-duration-frequency characteristics for a site are closely related to the mean annual precipitation for that site....

Comparative acute oral toxicity of pesticides to six species of birds
Richard K. Tucker, M. A. Haegele
1971, Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology (20) 57-65
Acute oral LD50 values were determined for 16 common pesticides on mallard ducks (Anas platyrhynchos), ring-necked pheasants (Phasianus colchicus), chukar partridges (Alectoris graeca), coturnix quail (Coturnix coturnix japonica), common pigeons (Columba livia), and house sparrows (Passer domesticus). Analyses of the data revealed that...
