Computer-enhanced LANDSAT imagery as a tool for mineral exploration in Alaska
Nairn Albert, Pat S. Chavez
1976, Open-File Report 76-65
Recent work in the Nabesna and McCarthy quadrangles, Alaska, indicates that computer-enhanced LANDSAT imagery shows many of the known mineral deposits and can help in the prediction of potential mineral occurrences. False color, "simulated natural color" and color ratio techniques, were used successfully in conjunction with a black and white,...

Preliminary survey of modern glaciolacustrine sediments for earthquake-induced deformational structures, south-central Alaska
Michael J. Rymer, John D. Sims
1976, Open-File Report 76-373
Bottom sediments of four lakes in South-Central Alaska were studied in the summer of 1975 for evidence of earthquake-induced deformation. The lakes are: Summit, Upper Trail, and Skilak, all on the Kenai Peninsula, and Eklutna, northeast of Anchorage (fig. 1). Interest in these lakes was stimulated by hypotheses developed from...
