Gary R. Winkler, G. R. Winkler, Warren L. Coonrad, George Claypool
1980, Open-File Report 80-1089
Forty samples of Tertiary and Cretaceous outcrop or suspected outcrop were dredged along the 250-km-long northwest-trending continental slope between long 138°00' W. and 142°30' W. These samples, from water depths of 3,150 m to 200 m, combined with seismic reflection data, identify seven rock units in apparently normal stratigraphic position....

Maps showing composition of surficial sediments on the insular shelf of southwestern Puerto Rico
Gerald L. Shideler
1980, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 1258
The limited availability of onshore sand deposits for use in construction appears to be a future major problem in Puerto Rico (U.S. Bureau of Mines, 1972; Committee on Puerto Rico and the Sea, 1974). Consequently, the mining of offshore sand deposits as supplemental sources of construction aggregate may becom e...
Ground-water levels in selected well fields and in west-central Florida, September 1980
