Recurrence intervals for great earthquakes of the past 3,500 years at northeastern Willapa Bay, Washington
Brian F. Atwater, Eileen Hemphill-Haley
1997, Professional Paper 1576
Seven great earthquakes, or earthquake series, probably ruptured the southern Washington part of the Cascadia subduction zone in the past 3,500 years. Each earthquake was probably of magnitude 8 or larger. The earthquakes define six recurrence intervals that average about 500 years. The longest interval, about 700-1300 years, was followed...

Bedload and river hydraulics - Inferences from the East Fork River, Wyoming
Luna Bergere Leopold, William W. Emmett
1997, Professional Paper 1583
During 1973-79, bedload data were collected in a sophisticated trap on a river of moderate size, the East Fork. The transport rate was measured most days through a full snowmelt season, and the rate was determined separately for eight zones across the channel width. The quantitative data are unique and...
