The zonal distribution of selected elements above the Kalamazoo porphyry copper deposit, San Manuel district, Pinal County, Arizona
M.A. Chaffee
1976, Journal of Geochemical Exploration (5) 145-165
There may be many as-yet-undiscovered porphyry copper deposits that exist as blind deposits deep within exposed rock bodies. The Kalamazoo porphyry copper-molybdenum deposit is a blind deposit present at depths up to at least 1,000 m (about 3,200 ft) that contains zoning features common to many of the known...
Simulation of streamflow of Flambeau River at Park Falls, Wisconsin to define low-flow characteristics
William R. Krug
1976, Water-Resources Investigations Report 76-116
Daily streamflows of the Flambeau River at Park Falls, Wisconsin , were simulated for a 31-year period. Streamflow was simulated using a streamflow-routing model. These simulated daily flows were analyzed for summer (June 1-October 31) low-flow frequency. The resultant 7-day, 10-year summer low flow is 260 cubic feet per second....

Hydrology of the North Cascades region, Washington: 2. A proposed hydrometeorological streamflow prediction method
Wendell V. Tangborn, Lowell A. Rasmussen
1976, Water Resources Research (12) 203-216
On the basis of a linear relationship between winter (October-April) precipitation and annual runoff from a drainage basin (Rasmussen and Tangborn, 1976) a physically reasonable model for predicting summer (May-September) streamflow from drainages in the North Cascades region was developed. This hydrometeorological prediction method relates streamflow for a season beginning...
Hydrology of the North Cascades region, Washington: 1. Runoff, precipitation, and storage characteristics
Lowell A. Rasmussen, Wendell V. Tangborn
1976, Water Resources Research (12) 187-202
The time and space distributions of measured precipitation and measured runoff and of spring storage, which is approximately equal to the subsequent summer runoff of snowmelt and stored groundwater, have been analyzed for the North Cascades region of Washington. Neither precipitation nor runoff shows a consistent relationship with altitude, chiefly...
Submarine geothermal resources
D.L. Williams
1976, Journal of Volcanology and Geothermal Research (1) 85-100
Approximately 20% of the earth's heat loss (or 2 ?? 1012 cal/s) is released through 1% of the earth's surface area and takes the form of hydrothermal discharge from young (Pleistocene or younger) rocks adjacent to active seafloor-spreading centers and submarine volcanic areas. This amount is roughly equivalent to man's...

Hydrogen and oxygen isotope exchange reactions between clay minerals and water
J. R. O’Neil, Y.K. Kharaka
1976, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (40) 241-246
The extent of hydrogen and oxygen isotope exchange between clay minerals and water has been measured in the temperature range 100–350° for bomb runs of up to almost 2 years. Hydrogen isotope exchange between water and the clays was demonstrable at...
The Lice, Turkey, earthquake of September 6, 1975; a preliminary engineering investigation

The Fifth European Conference on Earthquake Engineering was held on September 22 through 25 in Istanbul, Turkey. The opening speech by the Honorable H. E. Nurettin Ok, Minister of Reconstruction and Resettlement of Turkey, introduced the several hundred delegates to the realities of earthquake hazards in Turkey:...

Teton Dam flood of June 1976, Moody quadrangle, Idaho
William A. Harenberg, Bruce B. Bigelow
1976, Hydrologic Atlas 568
The failure of the Teton Dam caused extreme flooding along the Teton River, Henrys Fork, and Snake River in southeastern Idaho on June 5-8, 1976. No flooding occurred downstream from American Falls Reservoir. The inundated areas and maximum water-surface elevations are shown in a series of 17 hydrologic atlases. The...
Earthquakes June-July 1976
W. J. Person
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 31-33
This was a seismically active period, with one great earthquake, four major earthquakes, and several strong shocks worldwide. Many persons were killed and thousands were injured in three separate events-in West Irian (west New Guinea), in Bali, Indonesia, and in northeastern China. A great earthquake (one with a Richter magnitude 8.0...
A revised “earthquake report” questionnaire
C. Stover, G. Reagor, R. Simon
1976, Seismological Research Letters (8) 18-22
The revised “Earthquake Report” questionnaire introduced here is designed to restrict the replies on the effects of earthquakes as closely as possible to a set of effects that can be evaluated by use of a computer program. Differences in intensity resulting from evaluation by different individuals using their own qualitative...
Geologic mapping and earthquakes in southeastern Idaho
L.B. Platt
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 8-12
On April 14, 1973, a magnitude 4.75 earthquake occurred in Oneida County, Idaho. The intensity of ground motion was too slight to cause damage, and local interest in this event was so slight that it was not even noted in the weekly newspaper, the Idaho Enterprise, published in Malad City, the...

Tragedy at Kilauea
D. A. Swanson, R.L. Christiansen
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 12-17
The following article is a reconstruction of events surrounding the deaths of a party of Hawaiian warriors in 1790 on Kilauea Volcano. It suggests that they were killed by a very hot, ash-free, base-surge cloud that rushed from the volcano. Much more recently than that, in the early morning hours of...

Earthquake prediction; fact and fallacy
R.N. Hunter
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 24-27
Earthquake prediction is a young and growing area in the field of seismology. Only a few years ago, experts in seismology were declaring flatly that it was impossible. Now, some successes have been achieved and more are expected. Within a few years, earthquakes may be predicted as routinely as the...
The Anderson Reservoir seismic gap - Induced aseismicity?
C. G. Bufe
1976, Engineering Geology (10) 255-262
A persistent 10-km seismicity gap along the Calaveras fault appears to be related to the presence of the Leroy Anderson Reservoir in the Calaveras-Silver Creek fault zones southeast of San Jose, California. A magnitude-4.7 earthquake occurred at a depth of 5 km in the centre of the gap on October...
Seismicity and faulting attributable to fluid extraction
R. F. Yerkes, R. O. Castle
1976, Engineering Geology (10) 151-167
The association between fluid injection and seismicity has been well documented and widely publicized. Less well known, but probably equally widespread are faulting and shallow seismicity attributable solely to fluid extraction, particularly in association with petroleum production. Two unequivocable examples of seismicity and faulting associated with fluid extraction in the...
