Geology of the Moreno Valley, New Mexico
L.L. Ray, J.F. Smith Jr.
1941, Geological Society of America Bulletin (52) 177-210
The Moreno Valley, located along the complex eastern boundary between the Sangre de Cristo Mountains and the Great Plains, is structurally a broad, northwardplunging syncline, disrupted by smaller folds and faults. This major synclinal structure is the result of the Laramide disturbance. Deformation, however, has continued possibly into the Quaternary....
Depth of active solution by ground‐waters in the Pecos Valley, New Mexico
Arthur M. Morgan
1941, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (22) 779-783
The Pecos River Drainage‐Basin is underlain by a thick series of Permian rocks consisting largely of limestone, gypsum (or anhydrite), and halite. The beds have a regional eastward or southeastward dip of 40 to 80 feet to the mile and successively younger beds are exposed at the surface from west...
Factors influencing runoff during the flood of December, 1937, in northern California
W.G. Boyt
1941, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (22) 124-129
Engineers and hydrologists engaged on flood‐problems throughout much of the United States east of the Rocky Mountains must deal to a considerable extent with wide‐spread storms covering thousands of square miles. The gradations of meteorologic conditions as regard both area and time are relatively homogeneous during such storm‐events and are...
Magnetic studies by the Geophysical Section of the United States Geological Survey
F.W. Lee
1941, Eos, Transactions, American Geophysical Union (22) 460-462
Continued progress has been made in magnetic surveys over large sectional areas by G. R. MacCarthy. Beginning in Florida south of the Okeefenokee Swamp, magnetic traverses were measured and continued through the southern part of Georgia. The most northerly traverses crossed regions where they contacted the crystallines near the surface...

Natural water loss in selected drainage basins
Gordon R. Williams
1940, Water Supply Paper 846
Determinations of areal rainfall, run-off, and water loss, comprising largely evaporation from land surfaces and transpiration by vegetation, are essential in indicating the hydrologic characteristics of river basins. This report is primarily a statistical study that presents the results of computations of annual water loss, or annual rainfall minus annual...
