A proposed streamflow data program for Oklahoma
J.D. Bohn, G. L. Hoffman
1970, Open-File Report 70-32
An evaluation of the streamflow data available in Oklahoma has been made to provide guidelines for planning future data-collection programs. The basic steps in the evaluation procedure were (1) definition of the long-terms goals of the streamflow-data program in quantitative form, (2) examination and analysis of streamflow data to determine...
Satellite relay telemetry of seismic data in earthquake prediction and control, 1968 and 1969
W. H. Jackson, Jerry P. Eaton
1970, Open-File Report 70-173
This report describes the progress of the Satellite Telemetry Earthquake Monitoring Program during the period 1 July 1968 through 30 June 1969. This research was supported by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration under Contract No. R-09-020-011, Task No. 160-75-01-50-10.The project was initiated in FY 1968 to evaluate the applicability...
Flood profile study, Hoosier Creek, Linn County, Iowa
Harlan H. Schwob
1970, Open-File Report 70-294
The purpose of this report is to present the results of a flood-profile study made for Hoosier Creek and its tributary, South Hoosier Creek. The reaches studied extend from near the south Linn County line upstream to U.S. Highway 218 on Hoosier Creek, and from the mouth to U.S. Highway...
Fluvial sediment concepts
Harold P. Guy
1970, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-C1
This report is the first of a series concerned with the measurement of and recording of information about fluvial sediment and with related environmental data needed to maintain and improve basic sediment knowledge. Concepts presented in this report involve (1) the physical characteristics of sediment which include aspects relative 'to...
Sediment yields of Wisconsin streams
S. M. Hindall, R.F. Flint
1970, Hydrologic Atlas 376
Sediment in Wisconsin streams causes economic and engineering problems in water management and reduces the value of water for nearly all uses. Sediment produces problems such as reduced reservoir capacity, navigation hazards, increased cost of water treatment, property damage, temporary loss of farmland, destruction of feeding and nesting grounds of...
Water-surface elevations and channel characteristics for a selected reach of the Applegate River, Jackson County, Oregon
David Dell Harris, Clyde W. Alexander
1970, Open-File Report 70-153
In land-use planning for the Applegate River and its flood plain, consideration should be given to (1) preservation of the recreational attributes of the area, (2) allowance for optimum development of the flood plain's natural resources, and (3) protection of the rights of private landowners. Major factors that influence evaluation...
Preliminary description of cores, chemical analyses of lignite beds, and map showing locations of holes drilled in Grant, Hettinger, Morton, and Stark Counties, North Dakota
H.L. Smith
1970, Open-File Report 70-308
Nineteen exploratory holes were drilled in Grant, Hettinger, Morton, and Stark Counties, N. Dak. (fig. 1), for the U.S. Geological Survey from June 7 to September 15, 1966. This prospect drilling was undertaken to gather data on the thickness, quality, and extent of lignite beds and the lithologic characteristics of...
Correlative estimates of streamflow in the upper Colorado River basin
Lamar E. Carroon
1970, Water Supply Paper 1875
Most hydrologic analyses, whether for appraisal of the water resource, feasibility of a particular development, design of a system of operation, assessment of gains or losses from acts of man or natural changes, or almost any other use, require the extension in time of some streamflow records. In the Upper...
Perception via satellite
Charles J. Robinove
1970, Water Spectrum (2) 14-19
The earth resources observation satellite (EROS) program in the Department of the Interior is intended to gather and use data from satellites and aircraft on natural and man-made features of the earth's surface. Earth resources technology satellite will provide the EROS program with data for use in dealing with natural...
Using radar imagery for crop discrimination: a statistical and conditional probability study
R. M. Haralick, F. Caspall, D.S. Simonett
1970, Remote Sensing of Environment (1) 131-142
A number of the constraints with which remote sensing must contend in crop studies are outlined. They include sensor, identification accuracy, and congruencing constraints; the nature of the answers demanded of the sensor system; and the complex temporal variances of crops in large areas. Attention is then focused on several...
Correlation of aeromagnetics and aeroradioactivity with lithology in the Spotsylvania area, Virginia
S.K. Neuschel
1970, Geological Society of America Bulletin (81) 3575-3582
The U.S. Geological Survey made a detailed aeromagnetic and aeroradioactivity survey of 1050 sq mi of the Spotsylvania area in the Piedmont province of eastern Virginia. The study area consists of sixteen 7 1/2-minute quadrangles in Spotsylvania and adjoining counties, Virginia. East-west traverses were flown at a spacing of 1/2...
Measurement of ultrasonic velocities in solids under hydrostatic pressure
L. Peselnick
1970, Journal of the Acoustical Society of America (48) 1324-1327
An ultrasonic method for determining velocity has been developed that is independent of phase‐change errors due to reflection of specimen waves from coupling films. The method also eliminates the possibility of error due to conditions of nonhydrostatic stress at a specimen‐transducer or specimen‐delay line interface. Preliminary data are given for Alcoa 2024‐T4 aluminum and...
Binary coefficients and clustering in biostratigraphy
Joseph E. Hazel Jr.
1970, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (81) 3237-3252
The large data arrays common in biostratigraphy make subjective groupings difficult. Because of this, biostratigraphers have commonly based conclusions on the occurrences of relatively few species. The use of binary similarity coefficients, cluster analysis techniques, and digital computers allows a polythetic approach to biostratigraphy. The...
Use of Ar36 to Evaluate the Incorporation of Air by Ash Flows
Richard F. Marvin, H. H. Mehnert, D. C. Noble
1970, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (81) 3385-3391
The Ar36 content of densely welded glasses from ash-flow units provides a means by which the amount of air entrapped and subsequently resorbed by the glasses during compaction and welding may be calculated. The amount of air measured in glasses from nine upper Tertiary ash-flow sheets...
Boulder Creek batholith, Colorado part I: Allanite and its bearing upon age patterns
Nelson L. Hickling, George Phair, Roosevelt Moore, Harry J. Rose Jr.
1970, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (81) 1973-1993
Allanite is abundant and commonly attains unusually large size as a late-replacement mineral in: (1) the comagnatic rocks of the Precambrian Boulder Creek batholith; (2) associated amphibolite xenoliths and related hybrid rocks; and (3) distinctly younger intrusions of Silver Plume Granite that cut the complex. Allanite porphyroblasts develop by replacement...
Late Mesozoic-Cenozoic tectonic aspects of the Atlantic Coastal margin
Thomas G. Gibson
1970, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (81) 1813-1822
Data from the middle and northern Atlantic Coastal Plain of the United States and continental slope show that the dominant filling of the Atlantic margin geosyncline occurred in pre-latest Cretaceous time with only thin additions of Cenozoic strata. The influx of significant amounts of detrital material into the offshore areas...
