Hydrologic and geomorphic data from the Piceance Basin, Colorado, 1972-77
Donald G. Frickel
1978, Open-File Report 78-825
This report is a compilation of erosion measurements made at 121 channel sites and 45 hillslope sites during the period 1972-77 in the Piceance basin of northwestern Colorado. The data were collected as part of channel-morphology, sediment-transport, and erosion-rate studies being conducted in conjunction with development of the oil-shale resource...
Cyclic landsliding at Wrightwood, southern California: A preliminary report
Douglas M. Morton, Russell H. Campbell
1978, Open-File Report 78-1079
Recurring landslide and mudflow events in the Wrightwood area of Southern California are parts of a composite cycle of landslide activity that includes three recognizable stages. The three stages are interdependent, occur in sequence, and are of different duration. Deposits of the first stage--the largest in size--are removed to positions...

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...

Radiometric results and areal distribution for granitic samples from the Granite Mountains, Wyoming
John S. Stuckless, Carl M. Bunker, George Van Trump, Charles A Bush
1978, Open-File Report 78-803
Analyses of surface samples from the Granite Mountains, Wyoming, generally agree with the findings from drilling at two different localities. The dominant Precambrian granitic rock type is the biotitic phase of the granite of Lankin Dome. This rock type is characterized by high potassium and anomalously high thorium concentrations, and...
