Scaling laws for natural disaster fatalities
Stuart P. Nishenko, Christopher C. Barton
John B. Rundle, Donald L. Turcotte, W. Klein, editor(s)
1996, Conference Paper, Reduction and Predictability of Natural Disasters: Proceedings of the Workshop "Reduction and Predictability of Natural Disasters" Held January 5-9, 1994 in Santa Fe, New Mexico

Integration of orthophotographic and sidescan sonar imagery: an example from Lake Garda, Italy
Giuseppe Gentili, David C. Twichell, Bill Schwab
1996, Conference Paper, Proceedings of the International Society for Photogrammetry and Remote Sensing XVIIIth Congress, Vienna 1996
Digital orthophotos of Lake Garda basin area are available at the scale of up to 1:10,000 from a 1994 high altitude (average scale of 1:75,000) air photo coverage of Italy collected with an RC30 camera and Panatomic film. In October 1994 the lake bed was surveyed by USGS and CISIG...
Reflected seismic waves and their effect on strong shaking during the 1989 Loma Prieta, California, earthquake
Rufus D. Catchings, W.M. Kohler
1996, Bulletin of the Seismological Society of America (86) 1401-1416
Our data indicate that critical and postcritical reflections from crustal layers and the Moho produced increased shaking at discrete distances along the San Francisco Peninsula during the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake. These reflections may have produced an increase in amplitude that is as much as 10 times greater than that...
Mesoscale variability of the Upper Colorado River snowpack
C. #NAME? Ling, E.G. Josberger, A.S. Thorndike
1996, Hydrology Research (27) 313-322
In the mountainous regions of the Upper Colorado River Basin, snow course observations give local measurements of snow water equivalent, which can be used to estimate regional averages of snow conditions. We develop a statistical technique to estimate the mesoscale average snow accumulation, using 8 years of snow course observations....
Ventilation changes in the northeast Pacific during the last deglaciation
A. VanGeen, R.G. Fairbanks, P. Dartnell, M. McGann, J.V. Gardner, Michaele Kashgarian
1996, Paleoceanography and Paleoclimatology (11) 519-528
Under present climate conditions, convection at high latitudes of the North Pacific is restricted to shallower depths than in the North Atlantic. To what extent this asymmetry between the two ocean basins was maintained over the past 20 kyr is poorly known because there are few unambiguous proxy records of...
Simulation of ground-water flow in the Saginaw Aquifer, Clinton, Eaton, and Ingham counties, Michigan
David J. Holtschlag, Carol L. Luukkonen, J.R. Nicholas
1996, Water Supply Paper 2480
A numerical model was developed to simulate ground-water flow in the Tri-County region, which consists of Clinton, Eaton, and Ingham Counties, Michigan. This region includes a nine-township area surrounding Lansing, Michigan. The model simulates the regional response of the Saginaw aquifer to major groundwater withdrawals associated with public-supply wells. The...
Meurigite, a new fibrous iron phosphate resembling kidwellite
W.D. Birch, A. Pring, P.G. Self, R.B. Gibbs, E. Keck, M.C. Jensen, Eugene E. Foord
1996, Mineralogical Magazine (60) 787-793
Meurigite is a new hydrated potassium iron phosphate related to kidwellite and with structural similarities to other late-stage fibrous ferric phosphate species. It has been found at four localities so far — the Santa Rita mine, New Mexico, U.S.A.; the Hagendorf-Sud pegmatite in Bavaria, Germany; granite pegmatite veins at Wycheproof,...
Survival and recovery rates of American eiders in eastern North America
David G. Krementz, James E. Hines, David F. Caithamer
1996, Journal of Wildlife Management (60) 855-862
We analyzed banding and recovery data of adult female American eiders (Somateria mollissima dresseri) captured during the breeding season in eastern North America. We estimated survival rates for birds originating in the Atlantic Coast subpopulation to be 0.8730 ± 0.0156 (SE) while recovery rates were 0.0101 ± 0.0080 (SE). Support for...
Joint US Geological Survey, US Nuclear Regulatory Commission workshop on research related to low-level radioactive waste disposal, May 4-6, 1993, National Center, Reston, Virginia; Proceedings
Peter R. Stevens, Thomas J. Nicholson, editor(s)
1996, Water-Resources Investigations Report 95-4015
This report contains papers presented at the "Joint U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) and U.S. Nuclear Regulatory Commission (NRC) Technical Workshop on Research Related to Low-Level Radioactive Waste (LLW) Disposal" that was held at the USGS National Center Auditorium, Reston, Virginia, May 4-6, 1993. The objective of the workshop was to...
Vegetation affects water movement in the Florida Everglades
Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey
1996, Fact Sheet 147-96
IntroductionThe Florida Everglades is a vast, diverse wetland ecosystem characterized by small ground-surface slopes, slowly moving surface waters, and dense aquatic vegetation. Both submersed and emergent vegetation are found in sawgrass and cattail marshes, wet prairies, and sloughs. The south Florida ecosystem has been greatly altered during the last 100...
