Ecosystems of South Florida
T.J. Enright, K.M.H. Pegram
2005, Open-File Report 2005-1021
South Floria is home to a variety of ecosystems. Small variations in elevation (in some cases, only inches), water salinity (a measure of salt content), soil type, and fire frequency dictate which landscape community will prevail. Below are descriptions and photographs of some of South Florida's unique ecosystems....
Simulated water sources and effects of pumping on surface and ground water, Sagamore and Monomoy flow lenses, Cape Cod, Massachusetts
Donald A. Walter, Ann T. Whealan
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2004-5181
The sandy sediments underlying Cape Cod, Massachusetts, compose an important aquifer that is the sole source of water for a region undergoing rapid development. Population increases and urbanization on Cape Cod lead to two primary environmental effects that relate directly to water supply: (1) adverse effects of land use...
Erratum: Empirical evidence for acceleration-dependent amplification factors
Roger D. Borcherdt
2005, Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America (95) 373-374
Incorrect versions of Figures 5 and 6 containing normalization errors were accidentally published by Borcherdt (2002). They should be replaced with the figures shown here. The text and tabulated regression values published in <a class="link...
A Cenozoic diffuse alkaline magmatic province (DAMP) in the southwest Pacific without rift or plume origin
Carol A. Finn, R. Dietmar Muller, Kurt S. Panter
2005, Geochemistry, Geophysics, Geosystems (6)
Common geological, geochemical, and geophysical characteristics of continental fragments of East Gondwana and adjacent oceanic lithosphere define a long-lived, low-volume, diffuse alkaline magmatic province (DAMP) encompassing the easternmost part of the Indo-Australian Plate, West Antarctica, and the southwest portion of the Pacific Plate. A key to generating the Cenozoic magmatism...
Water resources data, Arkansas, 2004
T.H. Brossett, T.P. Schrader, D.A. Evans
2005, Water Data Report AR-04-1
The U.S. Geological Survey Arkansas Water Science Center, in cooperation with State, Federal, and other local governmental agencies, obtains a large amount of data pertaining to the water resources of Arkansas each year. These data, accumulated during many water years, constitute a valuable database for developing an improved understanding of...
Threats, conservation strategies, and prognosis for suckers (Catostomidae) in North America: insights from regional case studies of a diverse family of non-game fishes
Steven J. Cooke, Christopher M. Bunt, Steven J. Hamilton, Cecil A. Jennings, Micheal P. Pearson, Michael S. Cooperman, Douglas F. Markle
2005, Biological Conservation (121) 317-331
Catostomid fishes are a diverse family of 76+ freshwater species that are distributed across North America in many different habitats. This group of fish is facing a variety of impacts and conservation issues that are somewhat unique relative to more economically valuable and heavily managed fish species. Here, we present...
Arsenic, microbes and contaminated aquifers
Ronald S. Oremland, John F. Stolz
2005, Trends in Microbiology (13) 45-49
The health of tens of millions of people world-wide is at risk from drinking arsenic-contaminated well water. In most cases this arsenic occurs naturally within the sub-surface aquifers, rather than being derived from identifiable point sources of pollution. The mobilization of arsenic into the aqueous phase is the first crucial...
Structure and mechanics of the San Andreas–San Gregorio fault junction, San Francisco, California
Tom Parsons, Terry R. Bruns, Ray W. Sliter
2005, Geochemistry, Geophysics, and Geosystems (6)
[1] The right‐lateral San Gregorio and San Andreas faults meet west of the Golden Gate near San Francisco. Coincident seismic reflection and refraction profiling across the San Gregorio and San Andreas faults south of their junction shows the crust between them to have formed shallow extensional basins that are dissected...
Monitoring the natural attenuation of petroleum in ground water at the former naval complex, Operable Unit A, Adak Island, Alaska, May and June 2003
R.S. Dinicola, F. W. Simonds, Rose Defawe
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2005-5002
During May and June 2003, the U.S. Geological Survey installed monitoring wells and collected data to characterize the effectiveness of natural attenuation processes for remediating petroleum-contaminated ground water at Operable Unit A of the former Naval complex on Adak Island, Alaska. In addition, the evidence for petroleum biodegradation in ground...
Summary of sediment data from the Yampa river and upper Green river basins, Colorado and Utah, 1993-2002
John G. Elliott, Steven P. Anders
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2004-5242
The water resources of the Upper Colorado River Basin have been extensively developed for water supply, irrigation, and power generation through water storage in upstream reservoirs during spring runoff and subsequent releases during the remainder of the year. The net effect of water-resource development has been to substantially modify the...
Development of a local meteoric water line for southeastern Idaho, western Wyoming, and south-central Montana
Lyn Benjamin, LeRoy L. Knobel, L. Flint Hall, L. DeWayne Cecil, Jaromy R. Green
2005, Scientific Investigations Report 2004-5126
Linear-regression analysis was applied to stable hydrogen (H) and oxygen (O) isotope data in 72 snow-core and precipitation samples collected during 1999-2001 to determine the Local Meteoric Water Line (LMWL) for southeastern Idaho, western Wyoming, and south-central Montana. On the basis of (1) residuals from the regression model, (2) comparison...
Direct measurement of methane hydrate composition along the hydrate equilibrium boundary
S. Circone, Stephen H. Kirby, Laura A. Stern
2005, Journal of Physical Chemistry B (109) 9468-9475
The composition of methane hydrate, namely nw for CH4·nwH2O, was directly measured along the hydrate equilibrium boundary under conditions of excess methane gas. Pressure and temperature conditions ranged from 1.9 to 9.7 MPa and 263 to 285 K. Within experimental error, there is no change in hydrate composition with increasing pressure along...
High-resolution seismic-reflection image of the Chesapeake Bay impact structure, NASA Langley Research Center, Hampton, Virginia
Rufus D. Catchings, David S. Powars, Gregory Gohn, Mark R. Goldman
2005, Professional Paper 1688-I
A 1-kilometer-long (0.62-mile-long) seismic reflection and refraction profile collected at the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) Langley Research Center, Hampton, Va., provides a detailed image of part of the annular trough of the buried, 35-million-year-old Chesapeake Bay impact structure. This profile passes within 5 meters (m; 16.4 feet (ft))...
Paleontology of the upper Eocene to quaternary postimpact section in the USGS-NASA Langley core, Hampton, Virginia
Lucy E. Edwards, John A. Barron, David Bukry, Laurel M. Bybell, Thomas M. Cronin, C. Wylie Poag, Robert E. Weems, G. Lynn Wingard
2005, Professional Paper 1688-H
The USGS-NASA Langley corehole was drilled in 2000 in Hampton, Va. The core serves as a benchmark for the study of calcareous nannofossils, dinoflagellates, diatoms and silico flagellates, mollusks, ostracodes, planktonic foraminifera and bolboformids, and vertebrate remains in the upper Eocene, Oligocene, Miocene, and Pliocene sediments in southeastern Virginia. These...
