Barite in the United States, exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii
Donald Albert Brobst
1965, Mineral Investigations Resource Map 43
The mineral barite, barium sulfate, is the chief source of barium and its compounds needed for many industrial processes and products. Barite is found the world over and is abundant and widely distributed throughout the United States. The barite deposits of the United States (exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii) are...

Tin in the United States, exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii
Pemberton Lewis Killeen, William Louis Newman
1965, Mineral Investigations Resource Map 44
The principal deposits and occurrences of tin minerals in the United States (exclusive of Alaska and Hawaii) are shown on the accompanying map. Although some very minor occurrences are included to indicate the extent of distribution, those in which only trace amounts of tin have been found spectrographically or geochemically...

Photointerpretation of Alaskan post-earthquake photography
R.J. Hackman
1965, Photogrammetric Engineering (31) 604-610
Aerial photographs taken after the March 27, 1964, Good Friday, Alaskan earthquake were examined stereoscopically to determine effects of the earthquake in areas remote from the towns, highways, and the railroad. The two thousand black and white photographs used in this study were taking in April, after the earthquake,...
Ordovician, Silurian, and Devonian biostratigraphy of east-central Alaska
Michael Churkin Jr., Earl E. Brabb
1965, American Association of Petroleum Geologists Bulletin (49) 172-185
A predominantly shale and chert sequence has been mapped from the Canadian border at Latitude 65°00′ N. to the Nation River about 25 miles northwest. It has Ordovician and Silurian graptolites in the lower half, and Middle Devonian corals and Upper Devonian spores in the upper half.The lower half of...
Biota of a late glacial rocky mountain pond
E.G. Kauffman, David S. McCulloch
1965, GSA Bulletin (76) 1203-1232
The sediments of a late glacial sag pond in Huerfano Park, south-central Colorado, have yielded a varied biota consisting of vertebrates, terrestrial and fresh-water mollusks, sponges, and pollen. Wood from the sediments has a radiocarbon age of 9600 ± 200 years. The vertebrate fauna contains the tooth of a prairie...
Tectonic deformation associated with the 1964 Alaska earthquake
George Plafker
1965, Science (148) 1675-1687
Alaska's Good Friday earthquake of 27 March 1964 was accompanied by vertical tectonic deformation over an area of 170,000 to 200,000 square kilometers in south-central Alaska. The deformation included two major northeast-trending zones of uplift and subsidence situated between the Aleutian Trench and the Aleutian Volcanic Arc; together they are...
Alaskan glaciers: Recent observations in respect to the earthquake-advance theory
A.S. Post
1965, Science (148) 366-368
Preliminary aerial photographic studies indicate that the Alaskan earthquake produced some rockfalls but no significant snow and ice avalanches on glaciers. No rapid, short-lived glacier advances (surges) are conclusively associated with this earthquake. Recent evidence fails to support the earthquake-advance theory of Tarr and Martin....

Quaternary geology of the Kenai Lowland and glacial history of the Cook Inlet region, Alaska
Thor N. V. Karlstrom
1964, Professional Paper 443
The Kenai Lowland is part of the Cook Inlet Lowland physiographic subprovince that borders Cook Inlet, a major marine reentrant along the Pacific Ocean coastline of south-central Alaska. The Cook Inlet Lowland occupies a structural trough underlain by rocks of Tertiary age and mantled by Quaternary deposits of varying thicknesses....
Geology and ground-water resources of the Anchorage area, Alaska
Dagfin John Cederstrom, Frank W. Trainer, Roger Milton Waller
1964, Water Supply Paper 1773
The Anchorage area, at the head of Cook Inlet in south-central Alaska, occupies 150 square miles of a glaciated lowland and lies between two estuaries and the Chugach Mountains. Two military bases are in the area; Anchorage is the largest city in Alaska and the chief transportation center for this...

David F. Barnes, Gerald R. MacCarthy
1964, Open-File Report 64-9
Seismic refraction and electrical resistivity surveys were made during the summer and fall of 1952 in the Tanana Valley near Fairbanks, Alaska, as part of the studies of the application of geophysical techniques to ground-water problems in Alaska instigated in 1951 by the U.S. Army Engineer Research and Development Laboratories....
