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...

Is there a periodicity in the occurrence of earthquakes?
R.N. Hunter
1976, Earthquake Information Bulletin (USGS) (8) 4-7
Various periodicities have been suspected in earthquake activity, but none has yet been proved. In his classic text on seismology, K.E Bullen remarked that small but discernable "trigger" forces, such as tidal effects, temperature changes or barometric changes, have been thought to act as "last straw" phenomena when the earthquake...

Radiocarbon dates indicate rates of graben downfaulting, San Jacinto Valley, California
B. E. Lofgren, Meyer Rubin
1975, Journal of Research of the U.S. Geological Survey (3) 45-46
Recent radiocarbon dates for wood samples collected from three depths in San Jacinto Valley graben indicate active tectonic downfaulting during the past 42,000 yr. The flood plain of graded San Jacinto River, entering the valley from the southeast and leaving toward the west, serves as a reference datum across the...
Relation of water level and fish availability to wood stork reproduction in the southern Everglades, Florida
James A. Kushlan, John C. Ogden, Aaron L. Higer
1975, Open-File Report 75-434
The wood stork is a species of colonial wading bird in the Everglades that is most sensitive to changes in the availability of food. Previous studies have shown that the initiation and success of wood stork nesting depends on high densities of fish concentrated in ponds and other catchment basins...

Estimating mean streamflow in the Duchesne River basin, Utah
R.W. Cruff
1975, Technical Publication 48
Monthly, annual, and long-term mean streamflow were estimated for streams in the Duchesne River basin by use of the monthly measurement method. Monthly measurements were attempted at 44 sites in the basin during the 1971 and 1972 water years. Some measurements could not be made because some sites were not...
