Sedimentology: general introduction and definitions : fluvial sediment and channel morphology
Roger G. Wolff, Paul C. Benedict
1964, Report
Sedimentology, the study of sedimentary rocks and the processes by which they are formed, includes and is related to a large number of phenomena. Sedimentology includes the five fundamental processes defined by the term sediaentation --weathering, erosion, transportation, deposition and diagenesis. Sedimentology shares with geomorphology the study of the surface...
Soil mechanics and soil physics symbols and nomenclature useful in hydrologic studies
A.I. Johnson
1964, Report
The study of hydrology requires an interdisciplinary approach, incorporating knowledge from fields such as engineering, geology, chemistry, and agriculture. With increasing frequency, the hydrologist finds it necessary to study the literature of the soil mechanics and soil physics disciplines for assistance in the solution of hydrologic problems. Because of the inter-relation between hydrology and soil mechanics...
Quality of surface waters in Utah, October 1962 to September 1963
U.S. Geological Survey
1964, Report
This data release is a compilation that presents water-quality data for the period October 1962 to September 1963 for the sites listed on page 2. These preliminary data are subject to revision before final publication in the annual series of U.S. Geological Survey Water-supply papers entitled Quality of surface waters...
Ground-water reconnaissance in the Burnt River valley, Baker County, Oregon
Don Price
1964, Open-File Report 64-128
The Burnt River valley in southern Baker County, Oreg., is underlain by rocks that range in age from pre-Tertiary to Quaternary. The pre-Tertiary rocks consist mainly of argillites, schists, limestones, and intrusive igneous rocks, while the Tertiary rocks consist mainly of felsic and mafic volcanic tuffs, lava flows and breccias,...
Floods of January-February 1963 in California and Nevada
S. E. Rantz, E. E. Harris
1963, Report
Widespread flooding occurred in central California and northwestern Nevada during January 31 - February 1, 1963, as a result of intense precipitation of about 72 hours duration. The flood-producing storm was of the warm type, with precipitation falling as rain at altitudes as high as 8,000 feet. The heavy precipitation,...
Water resources of the Virgin Islands, a preliminary appraisal, 1963
P.E. Ward, D.G. Jordan
1963, Open-File Report 64-158
Rainfall in the Virgin Islands averages about 44 inches per year, yet fresh water is in short supply, and the general impression of the islands is one of dryness. Land slopes are steep and runoff from rainstorms flows rapidly to the sea in the numerous, short, steep stream courses. During...
Water levels in observation wells in Santa Barbara County, California, in 1962
K. S. Muir
1963, Open-File Report 63-103
Investigation of the ground-water resources of Santa Barbara County was continued during 1962 by the U. S. Geological Survey in cooperation with the Santa Barbara County Water Agency. Monthly water-level measurements were made in 201 wells, in 9 of which automatic water-level recorders were operated. Earlier measurements, covering the period...
Preliminary interpretation of an aeromagnetic survey in central and southwestern Iowa
John Richard Henderson, Isidore Zietz, Walter S. White
1963, Open-File Report 63-46
The U. S. Geological Survey made a 10,000 square mile aeromagnetic survey of central and southwestern Iowa in mid-1962. This work, done in cooperation with the Iowa Geological Survey, completed magnetic coverage for the approximately 220 mile section of the "midcontinent gravity high" located in Iowa....
