Integration of geological remote-sensing techniques in subsurface analysis
James V. Taranik, Charles M. Trautwein
1976, Open-File Report 76-402
Geological remote sensing is defined as the study of the Earth utilizing electromagnetic radiation which is either reflected or emitted from its surface in wavelengths ranging from 0.3 micrometre to 3 metres. The natural surface of the Earth is composed of a diversified combination of surface cover types, and geologists...
Interpretation of magnetic surveys in intermontane valleys of Nevada and southern New Mexico
G. D. Bath
1976, Open-File Report 76-440
An evaluation of the magnetic method of geophysical exploration in intermontane valleys is made through examples of magnetic properties, magnetic surveys, reduction of data, and analysis of magnetic anomalies from some valley areas. Measurements of magnetic properties of samples collected along valley margins or from drill holes indicate that the...
Stratigraphy and petroleum possibilities of lower Upper Devonian (Frasnian and lower Famennian) strata, Southwestern Utah
Edward J. Biller
1976, Open-File Report 76-343
The lower Upper Devonian rocks in southwestern Utah--the Guilmette Formation and equivalents--represent a final regressive pulse of the major Late Devonian marine inundation of the Western Interior of the United States and record marine carbonate deposition on a wide continental shelf. They consist primarily of limestone, dolomite, and quartz arenite...
Empirical transfer functions for stations in the Central California seismological network
W. H. Bakun, Jay Dratler
1976, Open-File Report 76-259
A sequence of calibration signals composed of a station identification code, a transient from the release of the seismometer mass at rest from a known displacement from the equilibrium position, and a transient from a known step in voltage to the amplifier input are generated by the automatic daily calibration...
Flume studies with fine and coarse sands
Carl F. Nordin
1976, Open-File Report 76-762
This report presents a summary of hydraulic and sediment-transport data for two series of laboratory studies in a recirculating flume. Sands with median diameters of 0.25 and 1.1 millimeters were used in the studies. Velocities and depths were controlled, and the slopes, bed configurations and sediment-transport rates adjusted to the...
A probabilistic estimate of maximum acceleration in rock in the contiguous United States
Sylvester Theodore Algermissen, David M. Perkins
1976, Open-File Report 76-416
This paper presents a probabilistic estimate of the maximum ground acceleration to be expected from earthquakes occurring in the contiguous United States. It is based primarily upon the historic seismic record which ranges from very incomplete before 1930 to moderately complete after 1960. Geologic data, primarily distribution of faults, have...
Geology and hydrology of radioactive solid-waste burial grounds at the Hanford Reservation, Washington
Albert Mario LaSala, Gene C. Doty
1976, Open-File Report 75-625
The geology and hydrology of radioactive solid waste burial grounds at the Hanford Reservation were investigated, using existing data, by the U.S. Geological Survey as part of the waste management plan of the Richland Operations Office of the Energy Research and Development Administration. The purpose of the investigation was to...
User's guide to the Radiometric Age Data Bank (RADB)
Robert Eugene Zartman, J. C. Cole, Richard F. Marvin
1976, Open-File Report 76-674
The Radiometric Age Data Bank (RADB) has been established by the U.S. Geological Survey, as a means for collecting and organizing the estimated 100,000 radiometric ages presently published for the United States. RADB has been constructed such that a complete sample description (location, rock type, etc.), literature citation, and extensive...
Water-quality study of a reach of the Merced River in Yosemite National Park and vicinity, California, April 1973 through September 1974
Ray J. Hoffman, Alex E. Dong, Gail L. Keeter
1976, Open-File Report 76-326
A 25-mile reach of the Merced River was studied to provide the U.S. National Park Service with water-quality data prior to the operation of a new sewage treatment plant. Water-quality variables investigated were discharge, temperature, major chemical constituents, selected trace metals, specific conductance, suspended sediment, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, pH ,...
