The Geology of the Upper Mississippi Valley Zinc-Lead District
Allen V. Heyl Jr., Allen F. Agnew, Erwin J. Lyons, Charles H. Behre Jr., Arthur E. Flint
1959, Professional Paper 309
The upper Mississippi Valley zinc-lead district includes the southwest part of Wisconsin, the northwest corner of Illinois, and a narrow fringe of Iowa extending from Bellevue to McGregor, just west of the Mississippi River. The total area of the district is 4,000 square miles. The entire district is drained by...
Ground-water resources of the lower Niobrara River and Ponca Creek basins, Nebraska and South Dakota
Thomas G. Newport, Robert A. Krieger
1959, Water Supply Paper 1460-G
This report describes the area in north-central Nebraska and south-central South Dakota drained by Ponca Creek and by the Niobrara River below Valentine, Nebr. The Niobrara River and Ponca Creek are neighboring eastward flowing tributaries of the Missouri River. The Dakota sandstone of Cretaceous age is the oldest formation tapped...
Role of fluid pressure in mechanics of overthrust faulting: II. Overthrust belt in geosynclinal area of western Wyoming in light of fluid-pressure hypothesis
William W. Rubey, M. King Hubbert
1959, GSA Bulletin (70) 167-206
Pressures of interstitial fluids significantly greater than the normal hydrostatic pressure are known in many parts of the world. Many occurrences are in thick sections of relatively young sediments; some are in areas that have been intensely deformed. Abnormal fluid pressures in the Gulf Coast region are associated with thick...
Turtleback faults of Death Valley, California: A reinterpretation
Harald Drewes
1959, GSA Bulletin (70) 1497-1508
Turtlebacks are smooth, curved surfaces, which form north-northwestward-plunging elongate domes on the east side of Death Valley. These surfaces are roughly parallel to bedding or foliation of anticlines in Precambrian schist, gneiss, and marble. Late Cenozoic fan and playa deposits are faulted over these surfaces along the turtleback faults. Previously...
History of Imuruk Lake, Seward Peninsula, Alaska
David M. Hopkins
1959, GSA Bulletin (70) 1033-1046
A study of Imuruk Lake, a large, shallow lake in north-central Seward Peninsula, Alaska, illuminates the climatic history of northwestern Alaska and the tectonic history of central Seward Peninsula during Pleistocene and Recent time. Special interest attaches to the older lake sediments, because they contain evidence concerning the climate, fauna, and...
The reclamation of Indian and Abrams creeks in Great Smoky Mountains National Park
Robert E. Lennon, Phillip S. Parker
1959, Special Scientific Report - Fisheries 306
A complete program of stream reclamation was developed and applied on Indian and Abrams creeks in Great Smoky Mountains National Park. A salt-resistivity technique was used to estimate the dilution and velocity of a toxicant in running water. Streamside toxicity trials on resident fishes established minimal, effective concentrations of the...
Geology and quicksilver deposits of the Terlingua district, Texas
Robert G. Yates, George A. Thompson
1959, Professional Paper 312
The Terlingua quicksilver district, which has produced more than 150,000 flasks of quicksilver, is in the southern part of the Big Bend region of southwestern Texas. It is a narrow, eastwest area about 20 miles long and lies mainly in southwestern Brewster County. The district is connected by graded road...
Ground-water resources of Riverton irrigation project area, Wyoming, with a section on chemical quality of ground water
Donald Arthur Morris, O. M. Hackett, K.E. Vanlier, E. A. Moulder, W. H. Durum
1959, Water Supply Paper 1375
The Riverton irrigation project area is in the northwestern part of the Wind River basin in west-central Wyoming. Because the annual precipitation is only about 9 inches, agriculture, which is the principal occupation in the area, is dependent upon irrigation. Irrigation by surface-water diversion was begum is 1906; water is...
Distribution and migration of races of the mourning dove
J.W. Aldrich, A.J. Duvall
1958, Condor (60) 108-128
The Mourning Dove is a widespread species breeding in the non-boreal regions of North and Middle America and from the West Indies south to Panama. It is hunted extensively in many sections of the United States and in some sections of Canada, the West Indies, and Mexico....The trends in geographic...
Records of springs in the Snake River valley, Jerome and Gooding Counties, Idaho, 1899-1947
Raymond L. Nace, Arthur Van’t Hul, I.S. McQueen
1958, Water Supply Paper 1463
Many springs and seeps discharge water from the north wall of the valley of the Snake River between Milner and Bliss, Idaho. These are fed by a large ground-water body lying east and north of the river, beneath the Snake River Plain. Much ground water is pumped on the plain, many irrigation wells...
History of natural flows--Kansas River
Elwood R. Leeson
1958, Open-File Report 58-62
Through its Water Resources Division, the United States Geological Survey has become the major water-resources historian for the nation. The Geological Survey's collection of streamflow records in Kansas began on a very small scale in 1895 in response to some early irrigation interest, Since that time the program has grown,...
Ground water in the alluvial deposits of the Washita River and its tributaries in Oklahoma
A.R. Leonard, L.V. Davis, B.L. Stacy
1958, Open-File Report 58-63
Physical features.--The Washita River heads in the Texas Panhandle, in Hemphill, Roberts, and Wheeler Counties. It flows generally east-southeastward through southwestern and south-central Oklahoma to its confluence with the Red River above Denison, Texas, at a point about 4 miles northwest of Cartwright, Oklahoma. That point of confluence is now...
