2003, Open-File Report 2003-48
Because regional-scale atmospheric deposition data in the Rocky Mountains are sparse, a program was designed by the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the National Park Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture Forest Service, and other agencies, to more thoroughly determine the chemical composition of precipitation and to identify sources of...

Location and age of foraminifer samples collected by Chevron Petroleum geologists in California
Earl E. Brabb, John M. Parker
2003, Open-File Report 2003-167
Most of the geologic maps published for parts of central California in the past century have been made without the benefit of ages from microfossils. The ages of Jurassic, Cretaceous and Tertiary rocks in the mostly poorly exposed and structurally complex sedimentary rocks represented in the Coast Ranges are critical...
Diatom data from Bradley Lake, Oregon: Downcore analyses
Eileen Hemphill-Haley, Roger C. Lewis
2003, Open-File Report 2003-190
Displaced marine diatoms provide biostratigraphic evidence for tsunami inundation at Bradley Lake, a small freshwater lake on the south-central Oregon coast. During the past 7,200 years, fine-grained lacustrine deposits in the deep axis of the lake were disturbed 17 times by the erosion and emplacement of coarse-grained gyttja and, in...

2003, Open-File Report 2003-236
The National Geochronological Data Base (NGDB) was established by the United States Geological Survey (USGS) to collect and organize published isotopic (also known as radiometric) ages of rocks in the United States. The NGDB (originally known as the Radioactive Age Data Base, RADB) was started in 1974. A committee appointed...

This dataset is a composite of part or all of the 12 1:250,000 scale quadrangles that make up Oklahoma. The result looks like a geologic map of the State of Oklahoma. But it is...
Structural plays in Ellesmerian sequence and correlative strata of the National Petroleum Reserve, Alaska
Thomas E. Moore, Christopher J. Potter
2003, Open-File Report 2003-253
Reservoirs in deformed rocks of the Ellesmerian sequence in southern NPRA are assigned to two hydrocarbon plays, the Thrust-Belt play and the Ellesmerian Structural play. The two plays differ in that the Thrust-Belt play consists of reservoirs located in allochthonous strata in the frontal part of the Brooks Range fold-and-thrust...
