Late Neogene and Quaternary coarse-fraction and carbonate stratigraphies for Site 586 on Ontong-Java Plateau and Site 591 on Lord Howe Rise
J. V. Gardner, Walter E. Dean, Lynne Bisagno, Eileen Hemphill-Haley
1986, Initial Reports of the D.S.D.P. (90) 1020-1124
Carbonate oozes recovered by hydraulic piston coring at DSDP Site 586 on Ontong-Java Plateau and Site 591 on Lord Howe Rise have carbonate contents that are consistently higher than 90% with only minor variations. Consequently, paleoceanographic signals were not recorded in detail in the carbonate contents. However, mass accumulation rates...
Rhythmic bedding in Upper Cretaceous pelagic carbonate sequences: Varying sedimentary response to climatic forcing
M.A. Arthur, D.J. Bottjer, Walter E. Dean, A.G. Fischer, D.E. Hattin, E.G. Kauffman, L.M. Pratt
1986, Geology (14) 153-156
Rhythmic bedding is a prominent feature of North American and European Upper Cretaceous pelagic carbonate sequences deposited in epicontinental and continental-edge settings. Such bedding rhythms can result from variations in carbonate productivity, terrigenous dilution, redox conditions, or bottom currents. Each type of bedding cycle is expressed differently in the stratigraphic...
Rhythmic bedding produced in Cretaceous pelagic carbonate environments: Sensitive recorders of climatic cycles
D.J. Bottjer, M.A. Arthur, Walter E. Dean, D.E. Hattin, Charles Savrda
1986, Paleoceanography (1) 467-481
Various types of rhythmic bedding are prominent features of Cretaceous pelagic carbonates. These bedding rhythms are the primary depositional result of variations in carbonate productivity, terrigenous dilution, redox conditions and/or the energy of bottom currents. Each bedding cycle type is different in its expression in the stratigraphic record but ultimately...
Milankovitch cycles in Neocene deep‐sea sediment
Walter E. Dean, J. V. Gardner
1986, Paleoceanography (1) 539-553
Pelagic carbonate sediments from the world ocean basins commonly show cyclic variations in amount and/or degree of preservation of biogenic calcite, with periodicities of several tens to several hundreds of thousands of years. The direct causes of these cycles are fluctuations in noncarbonate dilution, carbonate production, carbonate dissolution, and/or current...
Geology of the Harrisonburg and Bridgewater quadrangles, Virginia
Thomas M. Gathright II, Peter S. Frischmann
1986, Book, Virginia Division of Mineral Resources Publication
The Harrisonburg and Bridgewater quadrangles comprise an area of approximately 117 square miles in Rockingham County in northwestern Virginia.This area is in the western part of the Shenandoah Valley, a portion of the Valley and Ridge physiographic province, and contains parts of three major geologic structures-the Staunton and North Mountain...
Water-quality data for the ground-water network in eastern Broward County, Florida, 1983-84
Bradley G. Waller, Frank L. Cannon
1986, Open-File Report 86-313
During 1983-84, ground water from 63 wells located at 31 sites throughout, eastern Broward County, Florida, was sampled and analyzed to determine baseline water-quality conditions. The physical and chemical parameters analyzed included field measurements (pH and temperature), physical characteristics (color, turbidity, and specific conductance), major inorganic ions, nutrients (nitrogen, phosphorus,...

Distribution and habitat of Nitellopsis obtuse (Characeae) in the Laurentian Great Lakes
Donald W. Schloesser, Patrick L. Hudson, S. Jerrine Nichols
1986, Hydrobiologia (133) 91-96
Nitellopsis obtusa, a macroalga (Characeae) native to Europe and Asia, was found in U.S. waters of the St. Clair-Detroit River system in 1983, thus extending the range of this taxon into the Laurentian Great Lakes about 850 km from the St. Lawrence River where it was...
Multispectral digital image mapping of Antarctic ice features
Charles Swithinbank, Baerbel K. Lucchitta
1986, Annals of Glaciology (8) 159-163
Landsat multispectral images of the Antarctic ice sheet have been digitally enhanced by the US Geological Survey to show ice surface features not seen in earlier photographic products of the same scenes. Now for the first time it is worthwhile to prepare image maps at scales of up to 1:250...
Demographic patterns of the shrub Ceanothus megacarpus in an old stand of chaparral in the Santa Monica Mountains
T. M. Montygierd-Loyba, Jon E. Keeley
J.J. DeVries, editor(s)
1986, Book, Proceedings of the Chaparral Ecosystems Research Conference
Wildfires have had a major influence on the structural and functional adaptations that have evolved in Mediterranean-type ecosystems. Some chaparral shrubs sprout after fires while others produce serotinous cones or seeds refractory to germination until they are cued by a fire. Ceanothus megacarpus is a sclerophylous shrub commonly...
Unsteady, nonuniform landslide motion: 1. Theoretical dynamics and the steady datum state
Richard M. Iverson
1986, Journal of Geology (94) 1-15
Unsteady, nonuniform motion of persistently active landslides is a process of widespread importance. A general, three-dimensional theory aimed at elucidating this process is developed from physical principles and field measurements of landslide behavior. The theory employs a versatile constitutive model that represents...
