Falling-stream turbidimeter as a means of measuring sediment concentrations in streams
Harold P. Guy, Richard C. Olson
1972, Report
An optical (photocell) sensing device was used to measure the relative transparency characteristics of sediment suspensions with a view toward improving our ability to measure the temporal variations of suspended-sediment concentration moving in streams. The instrument used was a commercial "falling stream" turbidimeter that measured the relative transparency of a...

A summary of peak stages and discharges in New York for the flood of June 1972
Kenneth I. Darmer
1972, Report
Intense rainfall associated with Tropical Storm Agnes in late June 1972 resulted in the greatest flood disaster in the history of New York State. Flooding began in Westchester County on June 19 and was followed by widespread flooding in the Southern Tier and the Fingers Lakes region on June 23....
Some rates of geomorphological processes
Luna Bergere Leopold, William W. Emmett
1972, Geographia Polonica (23) 27-36
This brief report summarizes three sets of measurement data on certain processes.The first concerns the rate of movement of soil on hillslopes, especially by mass movement or slow gravitational creep. The results are abstracted from an unpublished manuscript by the junior author who reports on the measurements which Leopold began...
