The role of the Organization of American States in the development of seismology in Latin America
A. Quesada
1982, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (14) 7-9
Seismological studies in Latin America were initiated at the beginning of the 20th century, when the first seismological stations were deployed by certain scientific associations. These efforts provided an incentive to the professional community for further activites. Until this date, the only seismic records that existed were historical accounts of...
Identification of the Holocene-Pleistocene boundary in the Bering Sea by diatoms.
J.G. Baldauf
1982, Boreas (11) 113-118
The modern diatom flora from surface sediment of the Navarin Basin region of the Bering Sea is dominated by Denticulopsis seminae and Nitzschia oceanica. D. seminae, a north boreal species, is most abundant in the deeper waters of the slope-basin regions, whereas N. oceanica, an Arctic species associated with ice...

Holocene sedimentation in the shallow nearshore zone off Nauset Inlet, Cape Cod, Massachusetts
D.G. Aubrey, D.C. Twichell, S.L. Pfirman
1982, Marine Geology (47) 243-259
Present conditions and sedimentary evolution of the shallow offshore region near Nauset Inlet on Cape Cod, Massachusetts were clarified using high-resolution seismic-reflection profiles, sidescan-sonar records, surface grab samples and current meter measurements. The study area contains three provinces: (1) a nearshore province (shallower than 18 m) with a relatively steep...
Jack London and the San Francisco earthquake
J.S. Sachs
1982, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (14) 94-97
After it was over, it seemed to many, and especially to eyewitnesses like Jack London, that the earthquake and fire had devastated San Francisco. However people were confident that, like the phoeniz, San Francisco would rise from the ashes and regain her palce as the "Imperial City of the West." ...

Measurements of storm-generated bottom stresses on the continental shelf
D.A. Cacchione, D.E. Drake
1982, Journal of Geophysical Research - Oceans (87) 1952-1960
Large values of bottom friction velocity, u*, and roughness length, z0, determined from burst-averaged speed data taken on the continental shelf in outer Norton Sound, Alaska, with the GEOPROBE tripod during a storm in September 1977 are correlated with extremely large values of near-bottom concentration of total suspended particulate matter (TSM). Combined...
A case history of a dynamic resource--the red fox
A.B. Sargeant
G.C. Sanderson, editor(s)
1982, Book chapter, Midwest Furbearer Management
Red fox (Vulpes vulpes) population trends in midwestern North America since 1800 were examined. During 1801-1900, the red fox expanded its range south to include most of the region, but populations remained low in most areas. During 1901-30, it became scarce or absent in many northern areas but was common...

Population modeling for furbearer management
Douglas H. Johnson
G.C. Sanderson, editor(s)
1982, Book chapter, Midwest Furbearer Management. N. Central Sec., Central Mountains and Plains Sec., and KS.
The management of furbearers has become increasingly complex as greater demands are placed on their populations. Correspondingly, needs for information to use in management have increased. Inadequate information leads the manager to err on the conservative side; unless the size of the 'harvestable surplus' is known, the population cannot be...
The availability of conventional forms of remotely sensed data
James A. Sturdevant, Thomas M. Holm
1982, Journal of Applied Photographic Engineering (8) 153-158
For decades Federal and State agencies have been collecting aerial photographs of various film types and scales over parts of the United States. More recently, worldwide Earth resources data acquired by orbiting satellites have inundated the remote sensing community. Determining the types of remotely sensed data that are publicly available...
Refining Landsat classification results using digital terrain data
Wayne A. Miller, Mark Shasby
1982, Journal of Applied Photographic Engineering (8) 35-40
Scientists at the U.S. Geological Survey's Earth Resources Observation systems (EROS) Data Center have recently completed two land-cover mapping projects in which digital terrain data were used to refine Landsat classification results. Digital ter rain data were incorporated into the Landsat classification process using two different procedures that required developing...

Impact of Mount St. Helens eruption on hydrology and water quality
J. E. Bonelli, Howard E. Taylor, J.M. Klein
1982, Technical Report N-8311538
The 1980 eruptions of Mount St. Helens in southeast Washington resulted in a pronounced effect on the surface and ground water resources of the state. In response to the volcanic activity, the U.S. Geological Survey intensified statewide surface and ground water sampling programs to determine the nature and magnitude of...

Data from 15 wetland study sites, supplemented by data from reconnaissance visits to 219 additional wetlands, were used to describe the hydrologic characteristics of Wisconsin wetlands and to suggest a simple hydrologic classification system. Wisconsin's wetlands OCCUf in depressions and on slopes. They may be in contact with ground water...

Data on streamflow, tide stage, specific conductance, and chloride concentration were collected in the Alafia River and Bullfrog Creek to describe the salinity and physical characteristics of the saltwater wedge. The location of the saltwater-freshwater interface for both streams was described by multiple regression equations involving streamflow and tide stage....
