1976, Open-File Report 76-731
Seismic wave velocities (compressional and shear) are important parameters for determining the seismic response characteristics of various geologic units when subjected to strong earthquake ground shaking.Seismic velocities of various units often show a strong correlation with the amounts of damage following large earthquakes and have been used as a basis...

From May 1968 to December 1972, an industrial organic waste was injected at rates of 100 to 200 gallons per minute (6.3 to 12.6 litres per second) into a sand, gravel, and limestone aquifer of Late Cretaceous age by Hercules Inc. located near Wilmington, North Carolina. This report presents both...
Platinum deposits of the Goodnews Bay district, Alaska
John Beaver Mertie Jr.
1976, Professional Paper 938
Platinum placers were discovered in 1926 in a small area south of Goodnews Bay, in southwestern Alaska. Beginning in 1927, the placers were worked for 7 years by small-scale mining methods; in later years dragline excavators and a dredge were utilized. These deposits are important, not only because they are...

1976, Open-File Report 76-326
A 25-mile reach of the Merced River was studied to provide the U.S. National Park Service with water-quality data prior to the operation of a new sewage treatment plant. Water-quality variables investigated were discharge, temperature, major chemical constituents, selected trace metals, specific conductance, suspended sediment, turbidity, dissolved oxygen, pH ,...
