Significance of an aeromagnetic anomaly in the southwestern part of the Blue Range primitive area, Arizona-New Mexico
Gordon P. Eaton, James Clifford Ratte
1970, Open-File Report 69-84
In the Autumn of 1968 the U.S. Geological Survey flew a detailed aerial magnetic survey of the southwesternmost part of the Blue Range primitive area between Lat 33°21'00" and 33°29'00" N. and Long 109°15'00" and 109°22'30" W. The survey was intended to define more precisely a positive magnetic anomaly that...
Caldera collapse in the Galápagos Islands, 1968
T. Simkin, K. A. Howard
1970, Science (169) 429-437
The summit caldera of Isla Fernandina, a large, uninhabited basaltic shield volcano, was further enlarged by 1 to 2 km3 in June 1968. A small quake and large vapor cloud on 11 June were followed 4 hours later by a remarkable volcanic ash cloud and, after another hour, by a...
Winds over saltcedar
T. E. A. Van Hylckama
1970, Agricultural Meteorology (7) 217-233
An analysis of hourly wind speeds above and within a stand of saltcedar near Buckeye, Arizona, reveals that in 90% of all observed cases, the wind profiles above the stand can be represented by the simple logarithmic equation: uz=u*k1n">uz=u*k1n (zz0)">zz0) where...
Occurrence of whirling disease of trout in western United States
H. Wolf, W. T. Yasutake
1970, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (27) 955-956
Whirling disease of trout, caused by Myxosoma cerebralis, was diagnosed in 1966 for the first time in rainbow trout (Salmo gairdneri) from California and Nevada hatcheries. In 1969 the first incidence of this disease in cutthroat trout (S. clarki) was reported in Nevada. To date these have been the only confirmed cases...
Temperature tolerance of bloater (Coregonus hoyi)
Thomas A. Edsall, Donald V. Rottiers, Edward H. Brown
1970, Journal of the Fisheries Research Board of Canada (27) 2047-2052
Juvenile and young adult bloaters (Coregonus hoyi) were tested for tolerance to high temperatures. The ultimate upper lethal temperature of juvenile bloaters (26.75 C) appeared to be slightly higher than that of young adult bloaters, but was similar to that of juvenile ciscoes,Coregonus artedii (26.0 C), the only other North American coregonine for...
Aerial infrared surveys of Reykjanes and Torfajökull thermal areas, Iceland, with a section on cost of exploration surveys
G. Pálmason, J. D. Friedman, R. S. Williams Jr., J. Jonsson, K. Saemundsson
1970, Geothermics (2) 399-412
In 1966 and 1968 aerial infrared surveys were conducted over 10 of 13 high-temperature thermal areas in Iceland. The surveys were made with an airborne scanner system, utilizing radiation in the 4.5–5.5 μm wavelength band.Supplementary ground geological studies were made in the Reykjanes and Torfajökull thermal areas to interpret features...
Sources of geochemical standards-II
F.J. Flanagan
1970, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (34) 121-125
A revised and enlarged list of rock, mineral, ore, industrial product, counting, and isotopic standards of interest to those in geochemistry and geology is presented. Samples in process are also included. Sources from which the samples may be obtained are listed.<ul id="issue-navigation" class="issue-navigation...
Lithium metaborate flux in silicate analysis
C.O. Ingamells
1970, Analytica Chimica Acta (52) 323-334
Lithium metaborate is an effective flux for silicates and other rock-forming minerals. The glass resulting from fusion is mechanically strong, reasonably nonhygroscopic, and is readily soluble in dilute acids. These characteristics lead to its use in X-ray spectrography and in methods which require whole-rock solutions,...
Water-quality data for the Flaming Gorge Reservoir area, Utah and Wyoming
R. J. Madison
1970, Utah Basic-Data Release 20
In October 1966, the U.S. Geological Survey began a reconnaissance study of water quality in Flaming Gorge Reservoir. The purpose of this study was to determine the load of dissolved ions in the reservoir, the changes in chemical quality of the water as a result of initial leaching and subsequent...
Quality of surface water in the Bear River basin, Utah, Wyoming and Idaho
K.M. Waddell
1970, Utah Basic-Data Release 18
Water-quality data have been collected intermittently at several sites in the Bear River basin since 1947. Because the Bear River flows through three States - Utah, Wyoming, and Idaho - water-quality programs have been confined for the most part within State boundaries. In 1967, the U.S. Geological Survey, as a...
Daily water-temperature records for Utah streams, 1944-68
G.L. Whitaker
1970, Utah Basic-Data Release 19
Temperature is an important and sometimes critical factor for many uses of water. Temperature affects the usefulness of the water for recreation, fish and wildlife propagation, industrial cooling, food processing, and manufacturing. Temperature also affects the ability of the water to accommodate biologic and vegetative types of life.The purpose of...
UThPb age of Apollo 12 rock 12013
M. Tatsumoto
1970, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (9) 193-200
A UThPb isotopic study of three chips from lunar rock 12013 indicates that parental material of the intrusion breccia formed quite early in the moon's history, possibly 3.9 to 4.3 by ago. The UThPb characteristics of the rock are distinctly different from those of other Apollo 12 igneous rocks and...
Effect of sample inhomogeneity in K Ar dating
J. C. Engels, C.O. Ingamells
1970, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (34) 1007-1017
Error in K-Ar ages is often due more to deficiencies in the splitting process, whereby portions of the sample are taken for potassium and for argon determination, than to imprecision in the analytical methods. The effect of the grain size of a sample and of the composition of a contaminating...
The diffusion of ions in unconsolidated sediments
F.T. Manheim
1970, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (9) 307-309
Diffusion in unconsolidated sediments generally proceeds at rates ranging from half to one twentieth of those applying to diffusion of ions and molecules in free solution. Diffusion rates are predictable with respect to porosity and path tortuosity in host sediments, and can be conveniently measured by determinations of electrical resistivity...
Use of microearthquakes in the study of the mechanics of earthquake generation along the San Andreas fault in central California
J. P. Eaton, W.H.K. Lee, L. C. Pakiser
1970, Tectonophysics (9) 259-282
A small, dense network of independently recording portable seismograph stations was used to delineate the slip surface associated with the 1966 Parkfield-Cholame earthquake by precise three dimensional mapping of the hypocenters of its aftershocks. The aftershocks were concentrated in a very narrow vertical zone beneath or immediately adjacent to the...
