Revised age and structural interpretations of the Nuka Formation at Nuka Ridge, northwestern Alaska
Irvin L. Tailleur, Bernard L. Mamet, J. Thomas Dutro Jr.
1972, Open-File Report 72-372
New collections of foraminifers and macrofossils from Nuka Ridge, the type area of the enigmatic Nuka Formation, demonstrate that the type Nuka Formation contains at least two, and probably several, thrust sheets instead of a single continuous stratigraphic sequence as originally described....
Reconnaissance engineering geology of the Skagway area, Alaska, with emphasis on evaluation of earthquake and other geologic hazards
Lynn A. Yehle, Richard Walter Lemke
1972, Open-File Report 72-454
A program to study the engineering geology of most of the larger Alaska coastal communities and to evaluate their earthquake and other geologic hazards was started promptly after the 1964 Alaska earthquake; this report is a product of that program. Field-study methods were largely reconnaissance, and thus the interpretations in...

The hydraulic geometry of some Alaskan streams south of the Yukon River
William W. Emmett
1972, Open-File Report 72-108
Channel geometry surveys were conducted to determine bankfull stage, discharge, and other hydraulic parameters at 22 locations along the proposed route of the trans-Alaska pipeline corridor south of the Yukon River. Combined with the records from gaging stations located at some of the sites, the data are sufficient to describe...
Floods in the summer of 1971 in south-central Alaska
Robert D. Lamke
1972, Open-File Report 72-215
Floods and high water occurred throughout the summer of 1971 in south-central Alaska. Snow cover, 150 percent of average, in the mountains on May 1 caused local snowmelt floods from mid-May to mid-July. The peak discharge of 265,000 cfs (cubic feet per second) on July 15 at Copper River near...

1972, Circular 672
The proposed trans-Alaska oil pipeline, which would traverse the state north to south from Prudhoe Bay on the Arctic coast to Valdez on Prince William Sound, will be subject to serious earthquake hazards over much of its length. To be acceptable from an environmental standpoint, the pipeline system is to...
Energy resources of the United States
P. K. Theobald, Stanley P. Schweinfurth, Donald Cave Duncan
1972, Circular 650
Estimates are made of United States resources of coal, petroleum liquids, natural gas, uranium, geothermal energy, and oil from oil shale. The estimates, compiled by specialists of the U.S. Geological Survey, are generally made on geologic projections of favorable rocks and on anticipated frequency of the energy resource in the...

Summary of floods in the United States during 1967
J.O. Rostvedt
1972, Water Supply Paper 1880-C
This report describes the most outstanding floods in the United States during 1967. The two most destructive floods occurred in August in east-central Alaska and in September and October in southern Texas. In east-central Alaska, heavy rain on August 8-17 produced record-breaking floods near Fairbanks. Peak discharges on some streams...
