Exploration for porphyry copper deposits in Pakistan using digital processing of Landsat-1 data
Robert G. Schmidt
1976, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (4) 27-34
Rock-type classification by digital-computer processing of Landsat-1 (formerly ERTS-1) multispectral scanner data has been used to select 23 prospecting targets in the Chagai District, Pakistan, 5 of which have proved to be large areas of hydrothermally altered porphyry containing pyrite. The known porphyry copper deposit at Saindak was used as...
Gravity and magnetic studies of the Geysers-Clear Lake geothermal region, California, USA

1976, Conference Paper, Proceedings: second United Nations Symposium on the development and use of geothermal resources, San Francisco, California, USA, 20-29 May 1975
Gravity and magnetic fields in The Geysers-Clear Lake region are interpreted in relation to the known geology and other available geophysical data. New gravity data provide additional detail with the area of geothermal steam production. Computer techniques were used for removal of the regional gravity field, anomaly enhancement, and modeling...

Relative influence upon microwave emissivity of fine-scale stratigraphy, internal scattering, and dielectric properties
A. W. England
1976, Pure and Applied Geophysics PAGEOPH (114) 287-299
The microwave emissivity of relatively low-loss media such as snow, ice, frozen ground, and lunar soil is strongly influenced by fine-scale layering and by internal scattering. Radiometric data, however, are commonly interpreted using a model of emission from a homogeneous, dielectric halfspace whose emissivity derives exclusively...
Mapping wetlands on beaver flowages with 35-mm photography
R.E. Kirby
1976, Canadian Field-Naturalist (90) 423-431
Beaver flowages and associated wetlands on the Chippewa National Forest, north-central Minnesota, were photographed from the ground and from the open side window of a small high-wing monoplane. The 35-mm High Speed Ektachrome transparencies obtained were used to map the cover-type associations visible on the aerial photographs. Nearly vertical aerial...
Mathematical models for non-parametric inferences from line transect data
K.P. Burnham, David R. Anderson
1976, Biometrics (32) 325-336
A general mathematical theory of line transects is developed which supplies a framework for nonparametric density estimation based on either right angle or sighting distances. The probability of observing a point given its right angle distance (y) from the line is generalized to an arbitrary function g(y). Given only...
Wildlife importation into the United States, 1900-1972
R.C. Banks
1976, Special Scientific Report - Wildlife 200
Data from Bureau of Biological Survey and U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service reports show an overall increase in the number of birds and mammals imported from 1900 to 1972. The trend was interrupted by World War I, the economic depression of the 1930's, and World War II. Data...
Behavior of trace elements during magmatic processes - A summary of theoretical models and their applications
Joseph G. Arth
1976, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (4) 41-47
Progress in understanding the behavior of trace elements during the processes that produce igneous rocks has been made possible by the parallel development of theoretical models to describe that behavior and analytical techniques that permit precise measurement of trace-element concentrations in igneous rocks and minerals. The result of this progress...
