Hydrogeochemical effects of injecting wastes into a limestone aquifer near Pensacola, Florida
Donald A. Goolsby
1971, Groundwater (9) 13-19
Acidic industrial wastes have been injected into deep wells in a limestone aquifer near Pensacola, Florida, since 1963. Prior geohydrologic studies in the area had indicated that the limestone aquifer contained nonpotable water and was overlain by an extensive clay confining layer.Two injection wells are presently being used to inject...

Geysers
1971, Report
A geyser is a special type of hot spring that from time to time spurts water above ground. It differs from most hot springs in having periodic eruptions separated by intervals without flow of water. The temperature of the erupting water is generally nearly at boiling for pure water (212°F...
Uranium-series dating of some pleistocene marine deposits in Southern California
Barney J. Szabo, J. G. Vedder
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (11) 283-290
Analyses of uranium isotopes and their long-lived daughter products showed evidence of uranium migration in most of the 22 fossil mollusk shell samples from marine terrace deposits in southern California. Two samples, however, remained an ideal closed system as indicated by concordant230Th/234U...

Kaersutite - A product of reaction between pargasite and basanite at Dish Hill, California
H. G. Wilshire, L. C. Calk, E.C. Schwarzman
1971, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (10) 281-284
Paragasitic amphibole, occurring interstitially and as veins in peridotite inclusions in basanite, has reacted with the host basanite to form kaersutitic amphibole. The amphibole compositions vary with respect to distance from the edge of the xenolith; iron, titanium, and potassium contents are...
Inland fisheries
Louella E. Cable
Sidney Shapiro, editor(s)
1971, Book chapter, Our changing fisheries
Today's inland commercial fisheries are small independent operational units widely dispersed on lakes, impoundments, and streams throughout the vast central plains. The problems of the fisheries are diverse and unique to local conditions. Inland fisheries are particularly important to the Nation in times of international conflict because they...

Hydrology of Pine Creek, Wisconsin
Warren A. Gebert
1971, Report
The purpose of this study was to determine the hydrologic characteristics of Pine Creek, Price County, Wisconsin, in order to evaluate a proposed reservoir on Pine Creek. The streamflow characteristics estimated are the mean flows, low flows, and flood peaks. The study was done by the U.S. Geological Survey in...
Aeromagnetic study of the midcontinent gravity high of central United States

1971, Geological Society of America Bulletin (82) 2187-2208
A composite map of detailed aeromagnetic surveys over the midcontinent gravity high provides coverage of the 600-mi-long buried belt of mafic rocks of the Keweenawan Series from their outcrop localities in Minnesota and Wisconsin through Iowa and Nebraska. A map of the subsurface extent of the mafic rocks, based on...
Sea lampreys in the Great Lakes of North America
Bernard R. Smith
M.W. Hardisty, I.C. Potter, editor(s)
1971, Book chapter, The biology of lampreys
The movement of sea lampreys into the upper Great Lakes (Superior, Michigan, and Huron) initiated a series of biological changes which have extended beyond the fish directly attacked by the parasite. The threat posed by the sea lamprey was not generally recognized until it was well established in all...

Sea-floor spreading at the junction between Gorda Rise and Mendocino Ridge
George W. Moore
1970, Bulletin of the Geological Society of America (81) 2817-2823
A Quaternary deformation pattern revealed by new sub-bottom acoustic profiles supplements previous knowledge derived chiefly from magnetic and seismic evidence on the contemporary tectonics off northern California. An inferred age for the sedimentary cover along the axis of the southern part of Gorda Rise suggests...
Lower Devonian graptolites from southeastern Alaska

Effects of a causeway on the chemistry of the brine in Great Salt Lake, Utah
R. J. Madison
1970, Utah Geological and Mineralogical Survey Water-Resources Bulletin 14
During 1958-59, the Southern Pacific Co. constructed a permeable rockfill causeway to carry its railroad tracks across Great Salt Lake. The causeway divides the lake into two parts and interrupts the formerly free movement of brine about the lake. The causeway has caused significant changes in the chemistry of the...
