Discovery of a Late Triassic basin north of Boston and some implications as to post-Paleozoic tectonics in northeastern Massachusetts (USA)
Clifford A. Kaye
1983, American Journal of Science (283) 1060-1079
As deduced from various data the Triassic-Jurassic Middleton basin-trends NE and is probably approx 5.7km in length and no >0.5km in width. Two sets of dikes which have been K/Ar dated as Late Triassic-Early Jurassic have the same NNE strikes as strike-slip faults. There are indications that a tectonic event...
Reworked Hantkenina speciments at Little Stave Creek, Alabama

1983, Gulf Coast Association of Geological Societies Transactions (33) 253-256
The Eocene-Oligocene boundary in Mississippi and Alabama has been traditionally placed between the Shubuta Member of the Yazoo Formation and the overlying Red Bluff Formation (or its carbonate facies equivalent, the Bumpnose Formation). Consequently, the presence of Eocene planktonic foraminifers in the Red Bluff and Bumpnose has long been attributed...
Uptake and transport of heavy metals by heated seawater: A summary of the experimental results
Robert J. Rosenbauer, James L. Bischoff
1983, Book chapter, Hydrothermal processes at seafloor spreading centers
In general, the chemistry of seawater experimentally reacted with basalt is in accord with the observed chemistry of the 350°C vent waters from 21°N on the East Pacific Rise. Experiments at 350°C, 500 bar, and a water/rock ratio of ≤10 reproduce most of the major components in the vent waters,...
An extensive data base for cobalt-rich ferromanganese crusts from the world oceans
Frank T. Manheim, T.H. Ling, C.M. Lane
1983, Conference Paper, Proceedings of Oceans 1983
A new database for ferromanganese crusts from the world oceans is being compiled by the U.S. Geological Survey. Crusts differ from abyssal nodules by forming principally on steeper, raised areas or current-swept plateaus in the oceans. Some crusts contain relatively large concentrations of cobalt (1.0%) in areas within national territorial...

Fission-track ages of apatite in the Wasatch Mountains, Utah: An uplift study
C. W. Naeser, B. Bryant, M. D. Crittenden Jr., M. L. Sorensen
1983, Memoir of the Geological Society of America (157) 29-36
Apatite fission-track ages from basement rocks in the Wasatch Mountains between Ogden and Bountiful, Utah, range from 5 m.y. near the Wasatch fault along the west margin of the mountains to 94 m.y. on the crest of the range and show a correlation with altitude within individual fault blocks. Analysis...
Evidence for two pulses of glaciation during the late Proterozoic in northern Utah and southeastern Idaho
M. D. Crittenden Jr., N Christie-Blick, Paul K. Link
1983, Geological Society of America Bulletin (94) 437-450
A record of glaciation during late Proterozoic time is preserved in a number of localities extending from the Sheeprock Mountains, Utah, to Pocatello, Idaho, and from the Park City area 40 km east of Salt Lake City to the Deep Creek Range along the Utah-Nevada line. Over much of this...
The ophiolitic North Fork terrane in the Salmon River region, central Klamath Mountains, California
C.J. Ando, W. P. Irwin, D. L. Jones, J.B. Saleeby
1983, GSA Bulletin (94) 236-252
The North Fork terrane is an assemblage of ophiolitic and other oceanic volcanic and sedimentary rocks that has been internally imbricated and folded. The ophiolitic rocks form a north-trending belt through the central part of the region and consist of a disrupted sequence of homogeneous gabbro, diabase, massive to pillowed...
Conodonts of the western Paleozoic and Triassic belt, Klamath Mountains, California and Oregon
William P. Irwin, Bruce R. Wardlaw, T.A. Kaplan
1983, Journal of Paleontology (57) 1030-1039
Conodonts were extracted from 32 samples of limestone and 5 samples of chert obtained from the Western Paleozoic and Triassic belt of the Klamath Mountains province. Triassic conodonts were found in 17 samples, and late Paleozoic conodonts in 7 samples. Conodonts of the remaining 13 samples cannot be dated more...

New data on the age of Lepidocyclina in California
E. E. Brabb, Kristen McDougall, R.Z. Poore
1983, Journal of Foraminiferal Research (13) 167-178
During the 1930's and early 1940's, controversy about the age of Lepidocyclina californica and faunas associated with it led to unreconcilable differences of opinion in the attempt to provide a standard stratigraphic framework for Cenozoic rocks of western North America. Two standards with significantly different series age assignments were provided,...
Correlation of metamorphosed Paleozoic strata of the southeastern Mojave Desert region, California and Arizona
Paul Stone, Keith A. Howard, Warren Hamilton
1983, GSA Bulletin (94) 1135-1147
Isolated outcrops of deformed, regionally metamorphosed Paleozoic strata are scattered within the southeastern Mojave Desert region of California and western Arizona. These strata unconformably overlie a basement of Proterozoic crystalline rocks and are overlain in turn by metamorphosed Mesozoic sedimentary rocks. The strata can be correlated lithostratigraphically with the classic...

Physical oceanography of continental shelves

1983, Reviews of Geophysics and Space Physics (21) 1149-1181
Knowledge of the physical oceanography of continental shelves has increased tremendously in recent years, primarily as a result of new current and hydrographic measurements made in locations where no comparable measurements existed previously. In general, observations from geographically distinct continental shelves have shown that the nature of the flow may...

A gravity survey of the Jiddah area between lat 21°23' and 21°48' N., long 39°03' and 39°20' E., carried out in early 1977, covers an area of 744 km2 and includes 215 stations, at an average spacing of 1.9 km. The resulting simple Bouguer gravity anomaly map shows a series...
Plutonium speciation in water from Mono Lake, California
J.M. Cleveland, T.F. Rees, K.L. Nash
1983, Science (222) 1323-1325
The solubility of plutonium in Mono Lake water is enhanced by the presence of large concentrations of indigenous carbonate ions and moderate concentrations of fluoride ions. In spite of the complex chemical composition of this water, only a few ions govern the behavior of plutonium, as demonstrated by the fact...
