The September 1, 1981, Samoa Islands Region earthquake occurred at the extreme northern end of the Tonga arc in a region where the Pacific plate may be disjointed along a hinge fault. In the last 50 years, magnitude 7 or greater earthquakes have occurred in this region on the average...
High-resolution seismic-reflection profiles collected aboard R/V GYRE, cruise GYRE 80-G-7A, over the continental slope and upper continental rise, offshore New Jersey

1982, Open-File Report 82-305
During August 1980, the U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) collected 982 km of single-channel seismic-reflection data on the Continental Slope and upper Rise between Lindenkohl Canyon and Toms Canyon, off New Jersey (fig. 1). The work was conducted aboard R/V GYRE (cruise 80-G-7A). The trackline grid of this cruise extends and...
New papers related to remote sensing of the earth
A. P. Colvocoresses, F.J. Doyle
1982, Open-File Report 82-237
Worldwide experience of many individuals and organizations with remote sensing data acquired from space, primarily Landsat-1, -2, and -3, has demonstrated its utility for land use classification, agricultural assessment, energy and resource exploration, and many other applications. There has been some reluctance to adopt these systems in operational programmes because...

Land subsidence in the San Joaquin Valley, California, as of 1980
R. L. Ireland, J. F. Poland, F. S. Riley
1982, Open-File Report 82-370
Land subsidence due to ground-water overdraft in the San Joaquin Valley began in the mid-1920 's and continued at alarming rates until surface was imported through major canals and aqueducts in the 1950 's and late 1960's. In areas where surface water replaced withdrawal of ground-water, water levels in the...

Northern East Pacific Rise: Magnetic anomaly and bathymetric framework
Kim D. Klitgord, Jacqueline Mammerickx
1982, Journal of Geophysical Research B: Solid Earth (87) 6725-6750
The oceanic crust in the eastern Pacific between 7°N and 30°N and east of 127°W contains a fairly complete history of the spreading centers associated with the East Pacific Rise since 25 m.y. B.P. (late Oligocene). In this paper, we have summarized the seafloor spreading magnetic-anomaly data and the bathymetric...
A 40-foot static cone penetrometer
R.M. Beard, H.J. Lee
1982, Conference Paper
The Navy needs a lightweight device for testing seafloor soils to sub bottom depths of 12 meters in water depths to 60 meters. To meet this need a quasistatic cone penetration device that uses water jetting to reduce friction on the cone rod has been developed. This device is called...
The use of vertical seismic profiles in seismic investigations of the earth
Alfred H. Balch, Myung W. Lee, J. J. Miller, Robert T. Ryder
1982, Geophysics (47) 906-918
During the past 8 years, the U.S. Geological Survey has conducted an extensive investigation on the use of vertical seismic profiles (VSP) in a variety of seismic exploration applications. Seismic sources used were surface air guns, vibrators, explosives, marine air guns, and downhole air guns. Source offsets have ranged from...
On the distribution of species occurrence
Martin A. Buzas, Carl F. Koch, Stephen J. Culver, Norman F. Sohl
1982, Paleobiology (8) 143-150
The distribution of species abundance (number of individuals per species) is well documented. The distribution of species occurrence (number of localities per species), however, has received little attention. This study investigates the distribution of species occurrence for five large data sets. For modern benthic foraminifera, species occurrence is examined from...
Triggering of large earthquakes by magma-chamber inflation, Izu Peninsula (Japan)
Wayne R. Thatcher, James C. Savage
1982, Geology (10) 637-640
A close spatial and temporal association between three aseismic uplift episodes and subsequent large (M ≈ 7) earthquakes on the Izu Peninsula, Japan, suggests a causal relation. Quaternary geology, as well as studies by other workers, indicates a volcanic origin for the observed uplift, and we use a simple inflation...
Auditory evoked potentials in the West Indian Manatee (Sirenia: Trichechus manatus)
Theodore H. Bullock, Thomas J. O'Shea, Michael C. McClune
1982, Journal of Comparative Physiology A (148) 547-554
Potentials evoked by clicks and tone pips were recorded by fine wires inserted extracranially in four West Indian manatees (Trichechus manatus) in air. Sounds were delivered via padded ear phones. Averaging a few thousand trials at 20/s reveals early peaks at N5.4 (‘vertex’ negativity to a frontal reference, at 5.4 ms),...
Use and interpretation of statistics in wildlife journals
Thomas C. Tacha, William D. Warde, Kenneth P. Burnham
1982, Wildlife Society Bulletin (10) 355-362
Use and interpretation of statistics in wildlife journals are reviewed, and suggestions for improvement are offered. Populations from which inferences are to be drawn should be clearly defined, and conclusions should be limited to the range of the data analyzed. Authors should be careful to avoid improper methods...

B.W. Rehm, S.R. Moran, G.H. Groenewold
1982, Journal of Hydrology (59) 293-314
The magnitude of groundwater recharge to coal aquifers in a 150-km2 area in west-central North Dakota was determined using three separate approaches: (1) the net water level rise in water-table wells; (2) calculations of the fluid flux between nested piezometers, using the Darcy equation and measured values of hydraulic conductivity and...
