Seismic environment of the Burro Flats site, Ventura County, California: a brief, limited literature review
Carl M. Wentworth, Manuel G. Bonilla, Jane M. Buchanan
1969, Open-File Report 73-360
A limited review of available literature suggests that the maximum horizontal ground acceleration at the Burro Flats site from earthquakes in the region could range from less than 0.1 to 0.49 g. A magnitude 8 earthquake on the nearby San Andreas fault could produce ground acceleration in the range 0.18...
The Colorado River region and John Wesley Powell
Mary C. Rabbitt, Edwin D. McKee, Charles B. Hunt, Luna Bergere Leopold
1969, Professional Paper 669
A century ago John Wesley Powell-teacher, scientist, and veteran of the Civil War-set out to explore the unknown reaches of the Colorado River. He emerged from the forbidding canyons with a compelling interest in the nature of the western lands and how they could be developed for the greatest benefit...
The Geologic Story of Mount Rainier
Dwight Raymond Crandell
1969, Bulletin 1292
Ice-clad Mount Rainier, towering over the landscape of western Washington, ranks with Fuji-yama in Japan, Popocatepeti in Mexico, and Vesuvius in Italy among the great volcanoes of the world. At Mount Rainier, as at other inactive volcanoes, the ever-present possibility of renewed eruptions gives viewers a sense of anticipation, excitement,...
Surficial Geology of Mount Rainier National Park, Washington
Dwight Raymond Crandell
1969, Bulletin 1288
Much of the ground surface around Mount Rainier volcano is directly underlain by loose geologic deposits that veneer the hard rock formations. Examples of these deposits are sand and gravel bars along the rivers, ridges of loose rock debris beside the glaciers, and sloping aprons of rock fragments beneath almost...
Water-resources appraisal of Crater Lake National Park, Oregon
F. J. Frank, A.B. Harris
1969, Open-File Report 69-95
Crater Lake National Park is on the crest of the Cascade Range in southwestern Oregon. Except for small areas of glacial deposits, the area is underlain by volcanic rocks of Tertiary and Quaternary age. The principal rock types are andesitic and basaltic lavas, pumiceous volcanic flow breccias, tuffs, and airborne...
Measurement of discharge by the moving-boat method
George F. Smoot, Charles E. Novak
1969, Techniques of Water-Resources Investigations 03-A11
This chapter describes the procedures for measuring discharge in large streams by the moving-boat technique. During the traverse of a boat across a stream, a sonic sounder records the geometry of the cross section, and a continuously operating current meter senses the combined stream and boat velocities. These data are...
Geology, hydrology, and water quality in the Fresno area, California
Roland Westland Page, R.A. LeBlanc
1969, Open-File Report 69-328
The Fresno area comprises about 1.400 square miles lying west of the foothills of the Sierra Nevada and east of the trough of the San Joaquin Valley. The rainfall averages less than 10 inches per year causing agricultural development to depend mainly on surface-water deliveries and ground-water pumpage. Surface-water deliveries...
