Effects of the earthquake of March 27, 1964, on the Alaska Railroad
David S. McCulloch, Manuel G. Bonilla
1970, Professional Paper 545-D
In the 1964 Alaska earthquake, the federally owned Alaska Railroad sustained damage of more than $35 million: 54 percent of the cost for port facilities; 25 percent, roadbed and track; 9 percent, buildings and utilities; 7 percent, bridges and culverts; and 5 percent, landslide removal. Principal causes of damage were:...
Morphology, sedimentation, and seismic characteristics of an arctic beach, Nome, Alaska - with economic significances
H. Gary Greene
1970, Open-File Report 70-142
Arctic beaches exhibit characteristics that do not occur on beaches in more temperate zones. In the summer of 1967 morphological, sedimentological, and seismic refraction studies were made on an arctic beach near Nome, Alaska, in order to better define these distinguishing characteristics.Several distinct microrelief structures are developed during ice break-up...

Lead-, zinc-, and barite-bearing samples from the western Brooks Range, Alaska, with a section on petrography and mineralogy
Irvin L. Tailleur, Ray Wehr, G. Donald Eberlein
1970, Open-File Report 70-319
Concentrations of base metal and barite of potential economic significance may be present in the western De Long Mountains, northwestern Alaska. Greater than 2 percent lead and 1 percent zinc were detected semiquantitatively in sulfide-bearing hand samples from one locality, and more than 10 percent lead was analyzed in a...
A review of water resources of the Umiat area, northern Alaska
John R. Williams
1970, Circular 636
Surface-water supplies from the Colville River, small tributary creeks, and lakes are abundant in summer but limited in winter by low or zero flow in streams and thick ice cover on lakes. Fresh ground water occurs in unfrozen zones in alluvium and in the upper part of bedrock beneath the...

Petrology of the Plutonic Rocks of west-central Alaska
Thomas P. Miller
1970, Open-File Report 71-210
A series of plutons in west-central Alaska defines the Hogatza plutonic belt which extends for about 200 miles in an east-west direction from the northeastern Seward Peninsula to the Koyukuk River. The plutonic rocks have an aggregate area of about 1,200 square miles and their composition, distribution, and possible petrogenesis...

Flood frequency in Alaska
J.M. Childers
1970, Open-File Report 70-63
Records of peak discharge at 183 sites were used to study flood frequency in Alaska. The vast size of Alaska, its great ranges of physiography, and the lack of data for much of the State precluded a comprehensive analysis of all flood determinants. Peak stream discharges, where gaging-station records were...
