Effects of urban development on floods in northern Virginia
Daniel G. Anderson
1970, Water Supply Paper 2001-C
Graphical and mathematical relations are presented to estimate the flood-peak magnitudes having recurrence intervals ranging up to 100 years for drainage basins with various degrees of urban or suburban development. Five independent variables are required for use of the relations. They are the size, length, and slope of the basin,...

Paleozoic and Precambrian rocks of Alaska and their role in its structural evolution
Michael Churkin Jr.
1970, Open-File Report 70-64
Acknowledging that there are large gaps in the knowledge of the geology of Alaska, the following threefold subdivision of Alaska into Paleozoic tectonic elements is proposed: Southern Alaska--the Alaska Range and farther south--is the northern end of the Paleozoic Cordilleran geosyncline that rims the eastern Pacific. Northern Alaska--the northeastern Brooks...
Report on field trip to Wadi Bidah and Ablah areas, Saudi Arabia
Louis Gonzalez
1970, Open-File Report 70-138
The Mulgatah ancient workings were briefly examined and two samples of alluvium were taken from the wadi that drains these workings. In Wadi Bidah, near gossan outcrops at the Rabathan prospects, another wadi sample was taken. In the Abla Formation area, seven wadi samples were taken and these samples as...
Geology and mineral evaluation of the Wadi Bidah district, southern Hijaz quadrangle, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
Robert L. Earhart, Mustafa M. Mawad
1970, Open-File Report 70-116
The Wadi Bidah district in southwest Saudi Arabia contains several ancient mines and mineral-prospects. The Precambian rocks of the district are steeply dipping and highly folded and faulted. They are divided into three major units: (1) older metavolcanic rocks, (2) metasedimentary rocks, and (3) younger metavolcanic rocks. Massive sulfide-type deposits...
A proposed streamflow data program for South Carolina
Jeffrey T. Armbruster
1970, Open-File Report 70-11
An evaluation of the available streamflow data in South Carolina was made to provide guidelines for planning future surface-water data programs. The basic elements in the evaluation procedure were (1) establishment of objectives and goals of the program, (2) examination and analysis of all available data to determine which goals...
Seismic activity in the Sunnyside mining district, Carbon and Emery Counties, Utah, during 1968

1970, Open-File Report 70-115
More than 20,000 local earth tremors were recorded by the seismic monitoring network in the Sunnyside mining district during 1968. This is about 40 percent of the number of tremors recorded by the network in 1967. In 1968 a total of 281 tremors were of sufficient magnitude to be located...

A proposed streamflow-data program in Alaska
J.M. Childers
1970, Open-File Report 70-62
The streamflow-data program in Alaska was analyzed to design a better data network. The analysis included (1) definition of the goals of the streamflow-data program, (2) evaluation of the available data to see which goals have already been achieved, and (3) consideration and recommendation of future programs to achieve the...
