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...
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...

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...
Selected hydrologic data, Cache Valley, Utah and Idaho
L. J. McGreevy, L.J. Bjorklund
1970, Utah Basic-Data Release 21
This report presents selected basic data from a study of the ground-water resources of Cache Valley, Utah and Idaho. The study was made during 1967-69 by the u.S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Utah Department of Natural Resources, Division of Water Rights, and with the assistance of the U.S....
An improved method for size distribution of stream bed gravel
Luna Bergere Leopold
1970, Water Resources Research (6) 1357-1366
Random sampling of surface rocks on a gravel bar is biased toward larger sizes which, because of their area, are more likely to be picked up. Weighting can eliminate this bias. Data on average weight of a single rock are used to change numbers of rocks to weights, thus yielding...
Hydrologic research on instrumented watersheds
Luna Bergere Leopold
1970, Conference Paper, Colloque de Wellington Symposium, 1970, Results of Research on Representative and Experimental Basins (IASH Publication 97)
The successful research man is the one who asks himself the right question. Research must go on primarily in the mind and only secondarily in the physical and biological world. It is only too easy to confuse the choice of a proper tool and the choice of a proper question....
Let's Sing 'Auld Lang Syne' for the Upper Brandywine: Or, to continue with Burns, how the best laid environmental schemes of men "gang aft a-gley"
Luna Bergere Leopold
1970, Natural History (79) 5-15
Perhaps the most lamentable mistake that one can make is to be right too soon. This was the story of the Brandywine Plan, an attempt to organize local people for the permanent protection of the environmental amenities of their own land.The Upper East Branch of Brandywine Creek drains a rolling...
Remote Sensor Application Studies Progress Report, July L, 1968 to June 30, 1969. Controlled Field Experiments
L. C. Rowan, Terry W. Offield, R. D. Watson, P. J. Cannon, H.J. Grolier, H. A. Pohn, Kenneth Watson
1970, Report
Field Sites have been selected for controlled experiments to analyze physical and chemical parameters affecting the response of electromagnetic radiation to geological materials. Considerations in the selection of the sites are the availability of good exposures of nearly monomineralic rocks, level of geologic understanding, and ease of access. Seven sites,...
Major Land Resource Areas (MLRA)
Adapted from U.S. Soil Conservation Service
1970, Report
This is a polygon coverage of the Land Resource Regions and Major Land Resource Areas of the conterminous United States. Land resource regions are geographic areas that are characterized by a particular pattern of soils, climate, water resources and land uses. (USDA, Soil Conservation Service, 1981). Major land...

Thermal features at Volcanoes in the cascade range, as observed by aerial infrared surveys
R.M. Moxham
1970, Bulletin Volcanologique (34) 77-106
There have been no substantial changes in the thermal patterns at the summit of Mount Rainier in the period September 1964–September 1966, within the detection limits of the infrared instrumentation. Some differences in radiance are attributed to differences in snow cover. The highest apparent temperature is at a snow-free area...
Foraminiferal zonation and carbonate facies of Carboniferous (Mississippian and Pennsylvanian) Lisburne group, central and eastern Brooks range, Arctic Alaska
Augustus K. Armstrong, Bernard L. Mamet, J. Thomas Dutro
1970, American Association of Petroleum Geologists Bulletin (54) 687-698
The Lisburne Group carbonate rocks of the central and eastern Brooks Range contain foraminiferal assemblages assigned to zones of late Tournaisian (Osage) to early Moscovian (Atoka) age. Representatives of both Eurasiatic and American cratonic microfaunas permit correlation with the original Carboniferous type sections in western Europe as well as with...

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...
