The occurrence and origin of lamellar troilite in iron meteorites
R. Brett, E.P. Henderson
1967, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (31) 721-730
A number of iron meteorites contain elongated inclusions consisting predominantly of troilite, which have been termed Reichenbach lamellae. Two types of inclusions exist, the first up to 6 cm long and 0·2 mm wide, the second up to 2 cm long and 3 mm wide. The first type contains troilite...
On the chemistry of Jupiter's upper atmosphere
W.C. Saslaw, R.L. Wildey
1967, Icarus (7) 85-93
We conduct a first investigation into the ion-molecule chemistry of the upper Jovian atmosphere. Experimental results show that intense ultraviolet radiation reacts with the constituents of the Jovian atmosphere to produce C2H4, C2H6, C3H8, and higher polymers. The general procedure for calculating both equilibrium and nonequilibrium abundances of these products...
Fractionation of rare-earth elements in allanite and monazite as related to geology of the Mt. Wheeler mine area, Nevada
D. E. Lee, H. Bastron
1967, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (31) 339-356
Rare-earth contents of 20 allanites and 13 monazites, accessory minerals from a restricted outcrop area of intrusive granitic rocks, are reported. A quantity called sigma (Σ), which is the sum of the atomic percentages of La, Ce and Pr, is used...
Potassium-argon ages of recent rhyolites of the Mono and Inyo craters, California
G. Brent Dalrymple
1967, Earth and Planetary Science Letters (3) 289-298
Twenty-two KAr ages were determined for sanidine samples from 10 rhyolite domes of the Mono and Inyo Craters to test the applicability of KAr dating to volcanic rocks of Recent age. Comparison of the results with ‘blank’ and dosed analyses shows...
An operational theory of laser-radar selenodesy
R.L. Wildey, R.E. Schlier, J. A. Hull, G. Larson
1967, Icarus (6) 315-347
A theory of the utilization of laser techniques for ranging from the Earth to the Moon for the purpose of providing control points on the lunar surface at which the figure of the Moon is measured to an accuracy at least an order of magnitude better than that of...
Borate mineral assemblages in the system Na2O-CaO-MgO-B2O3-H2O
C. L. Christ, A.H. Truesdell, Richard C. Erd
1967, Geochimica et Cosmochimica Acta (31) 313-337
The significant known hydrated borate mineral assemblages (principally of the western United States) in the system Na2O-CaO-MgO-B2O3-H2O are expressible in three ternary composition diagrams. Phase rule interpretation of the diagrams is consistent with observation, if the activity of H2O is generally considered to be determined by the geologic environment. The...

Yakima basalt of the Tieton River area, south-central Washington
Donald A. Swanson
1967, Geological Society of America Bulletin (78) 1077-1110
Up to 1700 feet of the upper Miocene-lower Pliocene Yakima Basalt of the Columbia River Group underlie much of the eastern flank of the Cascade Range in the Tieton River area, Yakima County, Washington. Local prebasalt relief was more than 1700 feet, so thicknesses of each of the 15...

An investigation of the water resources of Salt Lake County, Utah, was undertaken by the Water Resources Division of the U.S. Geological Survey in July 1963. This investigation is a cooperative project financed equally by the State of Utah and the Federal Government in accordance with an agreement between the...
Field Methods for the Study of Slope and Fluvial Processes
Luna Bergere Leopold, editor(s)
1967, Revue de Géomorphologie Dynamique (17) 147-187
In Belgium during the summer of 1966 the Commission on Slopes and the Commission on Applied Geomorphology of the International Geographical Union sponsored a joint symposium, with field excursions, and meetings of the two commissions. As a result of the conference and associated discussions, the participants expressed the view that...
Observations on unmeasured rivers
Luna Bergere Leopold, Herbert E. Skibitzke
1967, Geografiska Annaler, Series A: Physical Geography (49) 247-255
An analysis of data on hydraulic parameters collected during a single boat trip down a river system is presented, plotted in form of the hydraulic geometry. A dimensionless rating curve is used to estimate bankfull and average discharge for basins of various sizes. When compared with gaging station data, estimates...
