Oxygen isotope activities and concentrations in aqueous salt solutions at elevated temperatures: Consequences for isotope geochemistry
A.H. Truesdell
1974, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (23) 387-396
Studies of the effect of dissolved salts on the oxygen isotope activity ratio of water have been extended to 275°C. Dehydrated salts were added to water of known isotope composition and the solutions were equilibrated with CO2 which was sampled for analysis. For...
Erosion by catastrophic floods on Mars and Earth
V.R. Baker, D.J. Milton
1974, Icarus (23) 27-41
The large Martian channels, especially Kasei, Ares, Tiu, Simud, and Mangala Valles, show morphologic features strikingly similar to those of the Channeled Scabland of eastern Washington, produced by the catastrophic breakout floods of Pleistocene Lake Missoula. Features in the overall pattern include the...

Migration and redistribution of zinc and cadmium in marine estuarine system
Charles W. Holmes, Elizabeth A. Slade, C.J. McLerran
1974, Environmental Science & Technology (8) 255-259
A survey of trace-element levels in the estuarine sediments of Texas shows that Corpus Christi Bay has anomalously high concentrations of zinc and cadmium. Maps of elemental abundance within the bay indicate large concentration gradients, the highest values being near the harbor entrance. Seasonal determinations of metal levels in the...
A probe for sampling interstitial waters of stream sediments and bog soils
G.A. Nowlan, C. Carollo
1974, Journal of Geochemical Exploration (3) 199-205
A probe for sampling interstitial waters of stream sediments and bog soils is described. Samples can be obtained within a stratigraphic interval of 2–3 cm, to a depth of 60–80 cm, and with little or no contamination of the samples by sediment or...
Water quality effects of seepage from earthen dams
C. Yost Jr., J.W. Naney
1974, Journal of Hydrology (21) 15-26
Analyses of surface and seepage waters from selected floodwater retarding structures in west-central Oklahoma, U.S.A. show the salinity of seepage to be several times greater than that of the impounded waters. The increases in concentration of the several chemical components are not proportional....
Comparative studies on extraction of sediment interstitial waters: Discussion and comment on the current state of interstitial water studies
F.T. Manheim
1974, Clays and Clay Minerals (22) 337-343
The implication by Murthy and Ferrell (1972)that interstitial water studies are in a confused state is criticized on the basis that the authors have not drawn on a considerable body of data, especially Soviet studies since the 1950's, and results of the Deep Sea Drilling Project. Pressure filtration systems for...
The chemical composition and estimated minimum thermal reservoir temperatures of the principal hot springs of northern and central Nevada
Robert H. Mariner, J. B. Rapp, L.M. Willey, T. S. Presser
1974, Open-File Report 74-1066
Fifty-five of the principal hot springs in northern and central Nevada have been sampled for chemical analyses. Major element constituents, sodium, potassium, calcium, and silica suggest minimum thermal-aquifer temperatures of 140°C or more at 16 of the hot spring complexes. At least five of the hot springs issue mixed waters...
Preliminary map showing availability of ground water from major glacial-drift aquifers in Griggs and Steele Counties, North Dakota
Joe S. Downey
1974, Open-File Report 74-1023
This investigation is part of a statewide program to determine the location, extent, and hydrologic characteristics of the ground-water reservoirs (aquifers).The investigation was made cooperatively by the U.S. Geological Survey, North Dakota State Water Commission, North Dakota Geological Survey, and Griggs and Steele Counties Water Management Districts.This preliminary map is...
Hydrologic data for Little Elm Creek, Trinity River Basin, Texas, 1972
B.B. Hampton
1974, Report
The U.S. Soil Conservation Service is actively engaged in the installation of flood- and soil-erosion reducing measures in Texas under the authority of "The Flood Control Act of 1936 and 1944" and "Watershed Protection and Flood Prevention Act" (Public Law 566), as amended. The Soil Conservation Service has found a...
