Proceedings of Conference V: communicating earthquake hazard reduction information: convened under auspices of National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program 22-24 May, 1978
Walter W. Hays
1978, Open-File Report 78-933
Under the Earthquake Hazard Reduction Act of 1977, the federal government is significantly increasing its effort "to reduce the risk of life and property from future earthquakes in the United States through the establishment and maintenance of an effective earthquake hazards reduction program". This prgoram is sponsored primarily by the...
Playback Station #2 for Cal Net and 5-day-recorder tapes
Jerry P. Eaton
1978, Open-File Report 78-542
A second system (Playback Station #2) has been set up to play back Cal Net 1" tapes and 5-day-recorder 1/2" tapes. As with the first playback system (Playback Station #1) the tapes are played back on a Bell and Howell VR3700B tape deck and the records are written out on...
Proceedings of Conference VI: Methodology for identifying seismic gaps and soon-to-break gaps: Convened under auspicies of National Earthquake Hazards Reduction Program, 25-27 May, 1978
Bryan L. Isacks, George Plafker
1978, Open-File Report 78-943
The fifth conference in the continuing series under the Earthquake Hazard Reduction Program was held at Massachusetts Institute of Technology on May 25- 27, 1978. Its theme was "Methodology for Defining Seismic Gaps and Soon-to-Break Seismic Gaps." One of the proposed strategies for acquiring critical data on earthquake prediction is...
Geotechnical properties of sediments from the Continental Shelf south of Icy Bay, northeastern Gulf of Alaska
Paul R. Carlson, William P. Levy, Bruce F. Molnia, John C. Hampson Jr.
1978, Open-File Report 78-1071
Studies of geotechnical properties of marine sediments have recently intensified as the search for natural resources has expanded on the continental shelf. The U. S. Geological Survey has begun a detailed evaluation of geologic environmental conditions in continental shelf regions in order to facilitate safe development of continental shelf resources....
Potential effects of deep-well waste disposal in western New York
Roger Milton Waller, John T. Turk, Robert James Dingman
1978, Professional Paper 1053
Mathematical and laboratory models were used to observe, respectively, the hydraulic and chemical reactions that may take place during proposed injection of a highly acidic, iron-rich waste pickle liquor into a deep waste-disposal well in western New York. Field temperature and pressure conditions were simulated in the tests. Hydraulic pressure...
Mineral resources of the Mill Creek, Mountain Lake, and Peters Mountain Wilderness Study Areas, Craig and Giles counties, Virginia and Monroe County, West Virginia
Frank Gardner Lesure, Bradford B. Williams, Maynard L. Dunn, William J. Perry
1978, Open-File Report 78-1076
The Mill Creek, Mountain Lake, and Peters Mountain Wilderness Study Areas comprise about 8200 ha of steep wooded slopes in the Jefferson National Forest in west central Virginia and adjacent West Virginia. Mill Creek area contains about 1800 ha and Peters Mountain area about 1600 ha in Giles County, Va....
Effects of permafrost on stream channel behavior in Arctic Alaska
Kevin M. Scott
1978, Professional Paper 1068
Sites with drainage areas ranging from 88 to 12,200 sq km were monitored on five streams in northern Alaska during the breakup in 1976 to determine (1) the effects of frozen bed and bank material on channel behavior, and (2) the importance of the annual breakup flood in forming the...
Effects of urbanization on streamflow and sediment transport in the Rock Creek and Anacostia River basins, Montgomery County, Maryland, 1962-74
Thomas H. Yorke, William J. Herb
1978, Professional Paper 1003
Land use, precipitation, streamflow, and sediment discharge data were collected from nine small drainage basins in Montgomery County, Maryland, to evaluate runoff and sediment response to sediment-control practices in areas undergoing urban development. Drainage basins ranged in size from 0.35 to 21.1 sq mi and land use ranged from rural...
Radioactive anomaly and mineralogy of the lower part of the Tabuk Formation, Al Qassim area, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia
John J. Matzko, V. J. Flanigan, Mustafa Mawad, Ziad Al Kollak, M.I. Naqvi, Abdul Malik Helaby
1978, Open-File Report 78-520
A radioactive anomaly about 10 km long was detected by an airborne survey of the Tabuk Formation, about 75 km west-northwest of Buraydah in northeastern Saudi Arabia. The gamma-spectrometer anomaly is 6 to 10 times higher than background over the adjacent Precambrian shield area and indicates anomalous concentrations of thorium-bearing...
Mineral resources of the Charles Sheldon wilderness study area, Humboldt and Washoe Counties, Nevada, and Lake and Harney Counties, Oregon
John B. Cathrall, R. C. Greene, Donald Plouff, D. F. Siems, G. L. Crenshaw, E.F. Cooley, E.T. Techek, F.J. Johnson, M. D. Conyac
1978, Open-File Report 78-1002
A mineral survey of the Charles Sheldon wilderness study area, located in Humboldt and Washoe Counties, Nevada, and Lake and Harney Counties, Oregon was conducted in 1974 and 1975 (fig. 1A, 1B, 1C). The mineral resource potential was evaluated by geological, geochemical, and geophysical studies by the U.S. Geological Survey,...
