Precipitation depth-duration-frequency relations for the San Francisco Bay region, California, with isohyetal map of San Francisco Bay region, California, showing mean annual precipitation
S. E. Rantz
1971, Basic Data Contribution 25
Precipitation depth-duration-frequency relations have been derived for the San Francisco Bay region, California. The regimen of precipitation in the region is such that depth-duration-frequency characteristics for a site are closely related to the mean annual precipitation for that site....
On the nature of the Boulder Batholith of Montana
M. R. Klepper, G.D. Robinson, H.W. Smedes
1971, Geological Society of America Bulletin (82) 1563-1580
In a recent review of the nature of batholiths, Hamilton and Myers (1967) interpreted the Boulder batholith of western Montana to be "in effect a gigantic mantled lava flow .... only a few kilometers thick," that flowed, under a crust of its own ejecta, across a broad structural basin. Such...
Status of engineering geologic and environmental geologic mapping in the United States
Dorothy H. Radbruch
1971, Bulletin of the International Association of Engineering Geology (4) 4-14
1. Engineering geologic maps in the United States may be one map prepared as part of a larger study of environmental geology, individual areal geologic maps containing additional engineering geologic data, or engineering geologic maps of single construction sites.2. No systematic methodology for engineering geologic or environmental geologic maps has...
Continuous magnetic profiles near ground level as a means of discriminating and correlating rock units
M. F. Kane, D. S. Harwood, N. L. Hatch Jr.
1971, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (82) 2449-2456
Continuous magnetic profiles were recorded by a truck-mounted magnetometer along road traverses over stratified metamorphic rocks and plutonic igneous rocks of the New England Appalachians. The records show a series of distinctive, highly detailed magnetic anomalies which closely reflect the nature and distribution of near-surface...
An aeromagnetic and aeroradioactivity survey of Liberia, West Africa
John C. Behrendt, Cletus S. Wotorson
1971, Geophysics (36) 590-604
A 140,000 km aeromagnetic and total-count gamma radiometric survey was made over Liberia in 1967-68 along north-south lines spaced 0.8 km over land and 4 km over the continental shelf. The data approximately delineate the boundary between the Liberian (ca. 2700 m.y.) age province in...
Mapping from space
Alden P. Colvocoresses
1971, Journal of the Surveying and Mapping Division (97) 125-132
Remote sensing of the earth promises to become an operational tool of the engineer and the scientist within the next few years. There are no real technical limits on the uses of data from space sensors. However, it is not practical to fly special missions, particularly in space, for each...
A new stratification of mourning dove call-count routes
L. H. Blankenship, A.B. Humphrey, Duncan MacDonald
1971, Journal of Wildlife Management (35) 319-326
The mourning dove (Zenaidura macroura) call-count survey is a nationwide audio-census of breeding mourning doves. Recent analyses of the call-count routes have utilized a stratification based upon physiographic regions of the United States. An analysis of 5 years of call-count data, based upon stratification using potential natural vegetation, has demonstrated...
Nationwide study of the streamflow data program
R. W. Carter, M. A. Benson
1971, Journal of the American Water Resources Association (7) 383-385
During 1970 the Geological Survey conducted a study to evaluate the surface-water data collection program. Objectives were formulated, specific goals were set, a massive analysis of available data was made to determine the extent to which the present system enables the goals to be met, alternatives...
An evaluation of procedures used in computing chemical denudation rates
Richard J. Janda
1971, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (82) 67-79
Computations of chemical denudation rates (that is, the average rate of lowering of the earth's crust by chemical processes) should be based only upon those components of dissolved loads of streams that are derived from chemical weathering of rocks and soils, even though identification of those components is difficult and...
Minor elements in water
Marvin W. Skougstad
Helen L. Cannon, Howard C. Hopps, editor(s)
1971, Book chapter, Environmental geochemistry in health and disease
A complete characterization of natural waters includes a determination of the concentrations of 30 or more minor elements. Emission spectrochemical methods are uniquely suited to the determination of a comparatively large number...
Calorimetric investigation of Na-K mixing and polymorphism in the alkali feldspars
David Robert Waldbaum, Richard A. Robie
1971, Zeitschrift für Kristallographie — Crystalline Materials (134) 381-420
Heat of solution measurements of the enthalpies of Na-K mixing, Al-Si ordering, and fusion for crystalline solutions and end-member phases in the system Na(AlSi3O8)–K(AlSi3O8) were obtained with a vacuum-jacketed, isoperibolic calorimeter using 20.1 percent hydrofluoric acid at temperatures ranging from 40 to 60°C. Heat of solution data for artificially prepared...
Wells and springs in California and Nevada within 100 miles of point 37°15' N, 116°25' W, on Nevada test site
William Thordarson, B.P. Robinson
1971, Report
Studies of published and unpublished geologic and ground-water data, for an inventory of 6,032 wells and 754 springs in parts of Inyo and Mono Counties, California, and Clark, Esmeralda, Lincoln, and Nye Counties, Nevada, reveal the following information:A complex sequence of granitic, metamorphic, volcanic, and sedimentary rocks of Precambrian to...
