Arsenic in detergents: Possible danger and pollution hazard
E.E. Angino, L.M. Magnuson, T.C. Waugh, O.K. Galle, J. Bredfeldt
1970, Science (168) 389-390
Arsenic at a concentration of 10 to 70 parts per million has been detected in several common presoaks and household detergents. Arsenic values of 2 to 8 parts per billion have been measured in the Kansas River. These concentrations are close to the amount (10 parts per billion) recommended by...
Interstitial water studies on small core samples, Deep Sea Drilling Project, Leg 3
F.T. Manheim, K.M. Chan, D. Kerr, W. Sunda
1970, Initial reports of the Deep Sea Drilling Project (3) 663-666
Eleven samples of fluids which had been squeezed on board ship, and four, packaged sediment samples were received in our laboratories. As in Leg 2, the volumes of fluid available were scanty and did not permit multiple determinations of constituents in many of the samples; in Hole 21 the fluid...
Comparative hydrogeology: An example of its use
Harry E. LeGrand
1970, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (81) 1243-1248
As a start toward needed classifications of hydrogeologic settings, a type of setting is described. The setting includes areas where soluble materials are exposed to considerable recharge from precipitation and where both the topographic relief and permeability are inappreciable. Typical areas of this setting are (1) the Black Belt of...
Green River oil shale—concept of origin extended: An interdisciplinary problem being attacked from both ends
W. H. Bradley
1970, GSA Bulletin (81) 985-1000
A much fuller understanding of the Green River oil shale and its organic chemistry will emerge when the geologists, paleontologists, organic chemists, biologists, paleolimnologists, and biogeochemists, who are now working on it, integrate their findings with those of the others.We know from the geology, paleontology, and paleolimnology that the biologic...

Nuclear methods applied to uranium geochemistry
J. N. Rosholt
1970, IEEE Transactions on Nuclear Science (17) 173-176
Stable and radioactive daughter products produced from nuclear disintegrations of uranium have proved useful in fundamental studies of the geochemistry of uranium in igneous rock and sedimentary environments and in ore deposits. Information gained from geochemical studies of uranium migration has been used to develop models...
Water, hydrogen, deuterium, carbon, carbon-13, and oxygen-18 content of selected lunar material

Suspended matter in surface waters of the Atlantic continental margin from Cape Cod to the Florida Keys
F.T. Manheim, R.H. Meade, G. C. Bond
1970, Science (167) 371-376
Appreciable amounts of suspended matter (> 1.0 milligram per liter) in surface waters are restricted to within a few kilometers of the Atlantic coast. Particles that escape estuaries or are discharged by rivers into the shelf region tend to travel longshoreward rather than seaward. Suspended matter farther offshore, chiefly amorphous...

Estimating steady-state evaporation rates from bare soils under conditions of high water table
C.D. Ripple, J. Rubin, T. E. A. Van Hylckama
1970, Report
A procedure that combines meteorological and soil equations of water transfer makes it possible to estimate approximately the steady-state evaporation from bare soils under conditions of high water table. Field data required include soil-water retention curves, water table depth and a record of air temperature, air humidity and wind velocity...

Data on dye dispersion in a reach of the Sacramento River near Red Bluff, California
Gary O. Balding
1970, Report
Late in October 1969, the U.S. Geological Survey, in cooperation with the California Water Resources Control Board, obtained data on the dispersion of injected dye in a reach of the Sacramento River near Red Bluff, Calif. The study area was in the vicinity of the Red Bluff diversion dam, immediately...
Water resources data for Indiana, 1969
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1970, Water Data Report IN-69-1
Surface-water records for the 1969 water year for Indiana, including records of streamflow or reservoir storage at gaging stations, partial-record stations, and miscellaneous sites, are given in this report and their locations shown in figures 1 and 3. Records for a few pertinent gaging stations in bordering States are also...
Geology and ground-water resources of Linn County, Iowa
Robert E. Hansen
1970, Water Supply Bulletin 10
Linn County, in east-central Iowa, covers about 713 square miles and lies in the Western Young Drift section of the Central Lowlands physiographic province. The normal annual rainfall in the county is about 88 inches and the annual mean temperature is about 48°F. The population in 1960 was 136,899, of...
