Bottom features and processes related to drifting ice on the Arctic shelf, Alaska
Erk Reimnitz, Peter W. Barnes, Tau Rho Alpha
1973, Miscellaneous Field Studies Map 532
Early investigations of artic shelf regions led to the hypothesis that certain micro-relief forms are related to the action of grounded ice (for example, Rex, 1955). Since the introduction of side-scan sonar as a tool for ocean-floor surveys, a number of workers have described the occurrence of linear bottom features...

Probable rift origin of the Canada basin, Arctic Ocean
Irvin L. Tailleur
1973, Open-File Report 73-274
Formation of the Canada basin by post-Triassic rifting seems the most workable and logical hypothesis with information available. Speculated counterclockwise rotation of the Alaska-Chukchi continental edge best rationalizes the complex geology of northern Alaska, whereas a single continental block before the Jurassic makes the best palinspastic fit for Arctic America....
Fractionation and characterization of natural organic matter from certain rivers and soils by free-flow electrophoresis
J.A. Leenheer, Ronald L. Malcolm
1973, Water Supply Paper 1817-E
Soluble river organic matter and soil fulvic acids from a variety of environments were compared by examining the free-flow electrophoretic fractionation curves of organic carbon, color, and polysaccharides. Significant amounts of virtually colorless organic material were found in both the soil and the river preparations. Polysaccharides comprised 20-75 percent of...
Geologic setting and chemical characteristics of hot springs in central and western Alaska
Thomas P. Miller, Ivan Barnes, William Wallace Pattan Jr.
1973, Open-File Report 73-188
Numerous hot springs occur in a variety of geologic provinces in central and western Alaska. Granitic plutons are common to all the provinces and the hot springs are spatially associated with the contacts of these plutons. Of 23 hot springs whose bedrock geology is known, all occur within 3 miles...

This report on the Alaskan activities of the U.S. Geological Survey contains up-to-date accounts of recent results and summaries of plans for the summer of 1973. It is organized in six parts: (1) responsibilities and services of the Geological Survey; (2) organization of the U.S. Geological Survey; (3) Alaskan field...
Distribution and chemical analyses of thermal springs in Alaska

Index of metallic mineral deposits of Alaska compiled from reports in open files of the U.S. Geological Survey and U.S. Bureau of Mines through 1972
Edward H. Cobb
1973, Open-File Report 73-47
This index supplements a similar index of published reports (Cobb, 1973) currently being processed for formal publication. Inasmuch as many open-file reports are preliminary and eventually superseded by final published reports, it is inappropriate to include references to open-file reports in a permanent index. As most preliminary reports are of...
Stratigraphy and geologic history of the Montana group and equivalent rocks, Montana, Wyoming, and North and South Dakota
James R. Gill, William Aubrey Cobban
1973, Professional Paper 776
During Late Cretaceous time a broad north-trending epicontinental sea covered much of the western interior of North America and extended from the Gulf of Mexico to the Arctic Ocean. The sea was bounded on the west by a narrow, unstable, and constantly rising cordillera which extended from Central America to...
